B.C.I. at Orillia Since both B.C.I. juniors and seniors had lost two games and won one they had to win to tie the round. The Barrie juniors carried the play from the first and although down 4-10 at half time they were only behind 10-12 at three-quarter time. B.C.I. ran into difficulties around the basket and Orillia pulled away to win 117-125, despite the valiant efforts of the Barrie players. The score ran up even in the senior skirmish but just before half time O.C.I. sank tive baskets in succession to make it 19-10. Although Mr. Cock- burn as a last resort put on five forwards, the defense bulwark set up by Or- illia preserved their lead. Whenever B.C.I. did break through it was agonizing to see the ball repeatedly roll off the ring. The final score of 34-22 is a mis- erable indication of the fine game the seniors played. Who played well? Why, everyone did! Turn to the picture and see them. Newmarket at Barrie The Newmarket teams, boys and girls. were invited to Barrie for the ex- hibition games on Feb. 22. The N.H.S. boys' teams had cleaned up their large district without a loss. In fact the juniors have suffered only one defeat in two seasons and that to B.C.I. last year. They were back to even things up this year but B.C.I. was ahead 12-10 at half time. Ryan, Thompson and McCul- lough were the marksmen. The subs were played liberally since it was only an exhibition game and Newmarket won their coveted victory, 26-13. Every player of the seniors, Strachan, Storey, Norris, Todd and Doug. Muir, scored in the first half, during which they held their champion oppon- ents to a tie, 14 all. In the third quarter N.H.S. gained a slight lead which they managed to hold till the end. The final score, 34-27, is a fair estimation of the play. Barrie at Newmarket The B.C.I. seniors were invited to play an exhibition game at the N.H.S. ahtletic display. The game was cleanly played and fast but the score was exceptionally low. Both teams played fellows from the junior teams a lot. Barrie concluded her season with this triumph, winning 10-6. HOUSE LEAGUE Senior Volleyball The league was composed of the following seven teams: Doug. Reynolds' Popeyes, Ted Mayhew's Little Wonders, John Rooke's Aristocrats, Fred Norris' Racketeers, Andy Blair's Runts, Glen Ayers' Devil's Own and Paul Hart's Flying Aces. The Popeyes went through the season without a defeat. In the finals the Flying Aces gave them a scare but the Popeyes' early lead carried them through on top. Popeyes: Doug Reynolds, D. Muir, F. Muir, G. Smith, L. Delaney, E. Bartley, F. Powell, J. Cameron, D. Tomlinson. Junior Volleyball There was a much larger number of enthusiasts this year in the junior ranks. The teams were as follows: Jack Simmons-- Wharf Rats, Doug. Smith - Amazons, Harold Scott- Wolves, Dave Hutchings- Tiger Sharks, Maur- ice Smith- Hawks, Robert Delaney- Cardinals, After a very even series the Tiger Sharks reached the finals undefeated with the Cardinals a good second. In the play-off match the Cardinals' fine serving won the day. Cardinals: R. Delaney, J. Pulford, E. Leigh, D. Leigh, D. D'Ambrossio, M. Wanamaker, L. Colpitts, B. Gribble, M. Richardson, J. Mur- phy, B. Reid. Senior Basketball The Racketeers went through the schedule undefeated with 'the Popeyes next with one loss, followed by the Devil's Own and the Flying Aces. The Devil's Own, mainly through the fine play of Strachan and Dyte, had the Rack- eteers looking awkward for the first half of the first semi-final game. The Racketeers forged ahead in the second period to win 24-16. The Popeyes, after defeating the Flying Aces the day before, set out to repeat the performance

In the over- time two quick baskets gave the game to the Aces. In. the senior finals the Flying' Aces faced the Racketeers. The odds were for the latter because they were all regular players and had won every con- test. However, the Aces carried the plays and mainly through Storey's efforts gained. an overwhelming lead of 18-4. but the half ended 19-12. As the Aces' stampede died out in the second half the Racketeers proceeded to cut down the lead, Ryan scoring mostly, with the capable assistance of Norris and Thompson. With Hart off, the less experienced Aces tiring, and the score tied at four minutes from the end, it was not hard' for the Racketeers to push ahead. Both teams are to be congratulated on the fine struggle they put up. Racketeers: F. Norris, P. Ryan, G. Thompson, B. Sutcliffe, J. Todd, A. Brock, E. Smith, H. Livingston, E. Johnston. The other game of the night was between M. Smith's' Hawks, the unde-- feated junior team, and R. Delaney's Cardinals. The first part of the game was exceptionally well played for less-experienced players. The Cards' taller players with high passes outplayed the Hawks but the latter played as well, if not better, towards' the end of the game. The final score was 11-7 for the- Cardinals. FORM NEWS FROM ID lContinued from Page 329. know that that is Archie Shaw's profession? We didn't know either until he proudly told us. ll must ask you to hang on to the giggles againl. His amusing drawings are priceless, says he. Now let us flit gracefully over to the girls' side of the room. While flitting watch that you don't fall over somebody's slightly large feet. Over here we have the rnerriest quartette- which is' made up of Beatrice Scandlan, Mary Breakwell, Ann Dyte and Jean Howe. These four are the most reliable fun-makers in the room Still, they do not neglect their studies. 4Did I hear anyone asking for some more funny stories?D They are extremely clever in Physiography Know let's all laughl.. Doris Wingrove won many points for our room on Field Day. Bravo Windy! She is the room's best athlete. The fall wiener roast went off quite enjoyably, which is quite natural since some of' the school's best students attended it. If you noticed some excellent skaters at the Skating Carnival, they probably belonged to ID. fWe admit we're goodie Well, we'll all give a hearty cheerio, pip, pip until next year where you will find us all in second form Caren't we sure of ourselves7J wearing the usual intelligent 4'?J expression. FQRM IE This year we have in our form many notable characters, if not for their ability at studies at least in sports and for other reasons. First of these we might mention is Miss Coleridge, our teacher. No form, we are sure, could have a better form teacher. Miss Coleridge enters into all we do with en- thusiasm and as well teaches us a lot of typing, shorthand and other subjects. On the field of sport we would be lost without Harold Scott and Don Tom- linson, our two ace athletes, nobly supported by many others, too numerous to mention. But we must reserve some space for Havercroft, our delightful crooner and mischief maker, who thrills all the girls by his antics. And speaking of girls, we have plenty of material for a beauty contest in our form. We will not mention names as we know that each girl will know of at least one of these. At the back of our classes we have a fine number of bigger, more serious-minded boys, Harry Miller, Eric Leigh, Geoffrey Glen, Don Tomlinson, etc., etc.. who take great delight in giving each lesson their most careful attention. In higher circles, the art work of Harry Miller brings fame to our form. Next year we expect you will find us all together again with no one missing. WLS?
