16 THE ASHBURIAN under Cadet Lieut. G. H. H. Read of Ottawa. The trophy was presented by Major Holmes. , Memories of past inspections were brought back to many old boys lining the sidelines, when they saw the tattered Union Jack which flew over the reviewing stand. This flag has been used for every inspection since the first in 1912. Large numbers of proud parents jammed the edge of the parade ground, some coming from as far away as New Jersey and New York. Among them was Admiral P. W. Nelles, former Chief of the Naval Staff, who watched keenly as his son went through the army drill. SHERWOOD CUP - CADET CHAMPIONSHIP WE are pleased to report that due to the splendid efforts of all 'anks of the Cadet Corps, both during the Cadet year and also at the Annual Inspection, No. 137 Ashbury College C. C. are once again holders of the Col L. P. Sherwood, V.D., Cup emblematic of the Cadet Championship for Schools in the Ottawa area. When it is considered that this trophy was won in competition with St. Patrick's, Nepean, Commerce, Tech., Glebe, etc., all Schools with Corps a good deal larger than Ashbury, this is no mean feat and congratulations are extended to all concerned for a good job of work. That we may have the pleasure of again reporting the holding of this trophy for 1946-47 is the sincere wish of the Editorial Staff of the Ashburian. ,

18 THE ASHBURIAN CRICKET Clzara,ctcrs-- Richardson-Captain: A conscientious captain who shone in every department of the game. Not only is he a sound opening bat with a variety of strokes and a medium-paced bowler with very steady length, but a quick and accurate fielder who made several brilliant catches in a very short season. He won both batting and bowling averages. Smith-Vice-Captain: A hard-working vice-captain who did not spare himself on any occasion, being a dangerous bowler and a stylish and forceful bat with a very punishing drive through mid-off. He was unlucky in the B.C.S. game, misjudging the ball on the leg stump before he was set, but he bowled very effectively. Read-Colours: A stubborn opening bat who is quick to take advantage of loose bowling. On occasion an effective slow bowler, and a steady safe fielder. Bulpit-Quick in the field and has a good eye, but should open up more at bat. Mingie-A very sound and hardworking fielder who is amazingly quick on his feet. Has not yet learned the fundamental batting strokes. Gault-Developed into a useful wicket keeper during the cur- tailed season. A strong hitter who must learn to wait for the right ones to hit. Breithaupt-Gave signs of natural batting ability. Cricket also involves fielding in which department he was not on his toes. Rolbertson-Gives promise as a getter of runs as he has a good eye and strong wrists. Is a powerful thrower. Pegram-Has some knowledge of the batting strokes but must be more aggressive. Somewhat slow in the Held and a weak thrower. Pettigrew-A stylish bat who must be more aggressive against mediocre bowling. Gives promise of becoming a useful change bowler.
