JUNIOR COLTS FIFTEEN The Junior Colts were a very light and inexperienced team, and suffered some heavy defeats. To their merit, however, they retained their keenness, and were a much-improved side towards the end of the season. Macl-Ewing and Gaither were the best of the backs, while Hedernan and Cameron both had excellent seasons in the forwards. Eight matches were played, of which two were won and six lost fpoints for 26, against 1911. D.G.W. JUNIOR JUNIOR COLTS XV Standing: T. Miles, T. Gloyd, D. Venables, J. Miller, J. Chudleigh, J.

CRICKET 1968 On the whole the 1968 season could be termed successful. In any case Cricket was maintained in the School, and matches took place at lst. XI, Colts and Junior levels. The Clayton Cup competition was held as usual, Conduit's XI being the winners, and the House Cham- pionship went to Winslow, who for some years have dominated cricket. The First XI was enthusiastically captained by Taylor. Three mat- ches were played. In the opening game Shawnigan proved to be too strong and the School were well beaten, but the return match was a most even affair and resulted in a draw. The only other match was against St. Ceorge's, and this was won easily. In addition to these fix- tures a game was played against Oak Bay High School. Each side batted for an hour. and the School were beaten by five runs. Colours were awarded to Taylor and Barker. The latter also won the bat presented by University School Incogs for the best all-rounder in the School. The First XI was as follows: S. D. Taylor CCapt.j, R. G. Barker, J. Hart-Maxham, T. C. Conduit, INI. Tunnicliffe, D. S. Goorevitch II, R. J. Grove, R. W. Lauder, R. J. R. Roxburgh, M L. Wolf and G. W. Way. FIRST ELEVEN MATCHES School v. Shawnigan Lake School Shawnigan batted first and scored quickly against bowling which lacked length and direction. A succession of full pitches and long-hops was dispatched in the approved manner, and Shawnigan were able to declare at 127 for five, Hart-hlaxham taking two wickets for 15 runs. The School, in reply, started very badly, and only a stand between Taylor U81 and Conduit C211 saved them from complete collapse. They were all out for 69 against some mediocre bowling. School v. St. George's School The School,s out cricket was rather better than against Shawnigan, and St. George's were dismissed for 57. Goorevitch Qthree for 181, Conduit Qtwo for sevenj, Barker Cthree for 221 and Taylor Ctwo for onel shared the wickets. When the School batted, Tunnicliffe, who played every straight ball but was singularly unsuccessful in establish- ing contact with anything off the wicket, stayed a long time for 12. Barker made 15 not out and Taylor 11, before the School had won by six wickets. School v. Shawnigan Lake School The return match with Shawnigan, played away, was the best of the season. Shawnigan batted first and were all out for 97. Roxburgh took a good catch, and Goorevitch, with six wickets for 36 runs, bowled very well. The School's reply was spirited. Roxburgh produced a rather 32
