Shortly afterwards, Wilkinson scored on another forward rush. Mitchell scored Brentwood ' s last points just before time. Brentwood v. Canadian Scottish Played at Brentwood, November 7th. (Won 13-0) Playing on a muddy field, against a very heavy pack of forwards, we played very ragged rugby. Although superior in the tight scrum, we were at a dis- advantage in the loose and line-out. Fraser opened the scoring with a fine try between the posts. Wilkin later scored. Mitchell converted both tries. In the second half Brentwood had the best of the game, but succeeded in scoring only once, Archibald crossing the line after a fine forward rush for an unconverted try. Towards the end of the game the Scottish pressed, but Brentwood held them. THE ist XV Page Ten

University School Intermediate League. Played at Mount Tolmie, October 17th. (Won 15-5 ) We opened the Intermediate League by a fine win over our traditional rivals, the University School. By playing as a team we were able to defeat another very good team. The spirit and condition of the Brentwood forwards had a great deal to do with the outcome of the game. By taking advantage of a fumble by the opposing fullback, Thorne scored a fine try. Arkell made a beautiful kick. Brentwood attacked hard and Mitchell gathered a loose ball, passed to Archibald, who scored. Arkell again converted. Taking advantage of a dropped pass of our opposing three-quarter, Todd ran 90 yards for a try, which Arkell again kicked for the extra points. At the close of the game Mackidd scored for the LTniversity School. Brentwood v. Shawnigan Lake Schooe Played October 24th. (Won 18-5) During the first half, our lighter opponents managed to hold us by deter- mined tackling and following up. Brentwood three-quarters proved dangerous on many occasions, but excellent tackling by Shawnigan proved too much. A Shawnigan forward intercepted a pass and scored a try just before half-time, which was converted. Taking the offensive at the start of the second half, Brentwood soon scored, Woods crossing the line. Todd scored soon after and Mitchell added two more tries before the end. Arkell converted three kicks. The team played very. poorly together in the first half, but fell into their stride in the second half. Brentwood v. Oak Bay Wanderers Played October 31st. (Won 15-0) In our second match with the Wanderers we played a very line team game. The forwards worked well together and the team was strong on the defensive. Shortly after the start Todd scored after a nice three-quarter run. Mitchell scored just before half-time. Page Nine
