All seven are strong swimmers and two, Chris Chapman and Andrew Crawford-Brown, eventually made the finals team. Duncan Ross is the best long distance freestyle prospect to arrive for several years, and Chris King is a fine all-rounder. Sean Baines led the team through a most successful season. Seven wins and two defeats gave him much satisfaction as an end to his long career in swimming at Appleby - well done and thank you, Sean. This is the strongest second team we have had in several years and it will certainly ensure that we remain competitive in the sport for some time.

In a season where we could and should have won every meet we entered we finished with the shelves bare and nothing to show for all our efforts - what went wrong is a question that was fre- quently heard in those last days of the winter term. The answers, as so often in cir- cumstances such as this, is not sim- ple, but a combination of factors. Illness and injury had dogged key members of the team for much of the season and sheer determination may have pushed one or two others too hard in the final week or two. Technical errors resulted in costly disqualifications and per- haps our strength was not deploy- ed as widely as it might have been. However, in the end it was the ex- cellent competition that we en- countered in this season that re- moved us from No. 1 place in both Oakville and ISAA competition. Dave Green is to be congratulat- ed on his first ISAA Diving Championship. Dave Burke and Jamie Mathieson were again out- standing and set new ISAA marks in the 100 yds. Breaststroke and 200 yds. Freestyle respectively. Steve Rockett, Don Johnson, Tom Hughes and Jamie Mathieson pushed the 200 yds. Freestyle Re- lay mark to 1.35.7, our third con- secutive new record in this event. Next season again holds tremen- dous promise to which will be add- ed the challenge of coming from behind for the first time in three years. See you next November.

Squash Tour to England in June, 1979 Appleby Beats Harrow and Marlborough On June 13, Mr. Larsen took the Appleby Squash Team on a tour to England. The team that went was Fred Reid, captain; Bart Sambrook, David Holland, David Dorion, and Steve Durst. Since the Appleby team has won the ISAA league for the last four years in a row, it was thought to be time to see how it would measure up to some of the top squash-playing schools in England. Since our Senior School has only 235 boys it is clear that, in winning five out of their six school matches in England, against good schools (Harrow and Marlborough are considered the best) our Appleby team had an extremely successful Blkesults ■■■ ' H Appleby v Dulwich (1400 students) Lost 2 - 3 V Harrow (700 boys) Won 3 - 2 V Aldenham (350 boys) Won 4 - 1 H V Oakham (550 boys) Won 5 - jH V V Stowe (600 boys) Won 5 - |H K V Oxford University 3rd V Lost 2 - 3 H ■ v Marlborough (900 boys) Won 3 - 2 B tour. In addition to playing six schools, the team visited Oxford University and played their 3rd V. Before going on the tour, Mr. Larsen had challenged all the other coaches to a game and four had agreed. As our coach won three out of four we are persuading him that he is not quite over the hill yet! The last match and one of the toughest matches was played at Marlborough; and it was thought a fitting climax to a great tour when all our players, including our coach, were awarded their Marlborough College Squash Colours.
