Brent w ood College Magazine University scored five tries but failed to convert any of them, In the second half Brentwood attacked more and kept University in their own half, but failed to score. On the whole the tackling of the team was much better. Fifth Regiment v. Brentwood College Played February 10th, 1934. (Won 9-6) It was a very hot day, and except for the last ten minutes of the game there was no wind. In the first fifteen minutes Kidd scored from a penalty kick for Brentwood. Later in the first half Phillipson scored for the Fifth, but the try was not converted. Unfortunately for the team, Newcomb was injured in the first half. In the second half Alexander and Todd scored for Brentwood, and the Fifth went over again. The three-quarters were moving much better in this game than in previous games. University School v. Brentwood College Played March 10th, 1934. (Lost 15-0) This game was played on University School ' s ground. It was quite a windy day. Brentwood played soundly the first half but University had the great advantage of their weight in the scrum. Brentwood held their opponents very well, and would have scored had not the two wing men, Kidd and Todd, been so well checked by the enemy. Teagle and Galloway were the outstanding players on the University team. The First Fifteen G. H. DAVIDSON — A sound scrum half. He developed in quic v ness and fed his three- quarters well. T. E. KELLEY — A hard-working forward with a good knowledge of the game. He is a sure tackle. S. J. NEWCOMB — A good inside three-quarter with sure hands and a deceptive swerve. He plays a good defensive game. K. PHILIP — A hard-working forward. He must learn to think more quickly. J. M. SELBY — Developed well during the season. He is a fair dribbler, but has a rather unsound tackle. R. W. WEST — A hard tackier but goes too low for his man. He must learn to look where he is passing. G. P. KIDD — A steady player, who runs very well when he gets started. He must develop more initiative in attack. E. M. WILLIAMS — A light but fairly useful stand-off half; he has quite a valuable kick. J. H. TODD — He has developed well this year. He is better in attack than in defense. D. ANGUS — A good kick, who developed well this year. M. SYMONS — A hard-working, winging forward. He follows up well. B. S. ALEXANDER — A heavy but rather clumsy forward. He expends a good deal of fruitless energy. L. RAY — A winging forward who played some useful games. He must cultivate quick thinking and tackling. J. EDDY — He works hard and has improved. D. T. AKIN — A newcomer to the team in the latter part of the season. He should be useful next year, when he learns more about the game. The following also played: P. EDGE — Tackles well on occasions. J. WELLS— A promising full-back. D. RHODES— A fair forward.

Brentwood College Magazine Rowing WE were fortunate this year in being able to get started so early that the first and second crews got in a good deal of their groundwork before Easter. This enabled the first crew to have nearly three weeks in the shell. Three races were arranged for the first crew and two for the second. We are grateful to the University of B.C., the J.B.A.A., St. George ' s School and the Old Boys for sending crews to compete against us. The first crew started the season by beating a U.B.C. four on May 12th over the 1 mile, 550-yard course by four-and-a-half lengths. Two weeks later they were defeated by a J.B.A.A. crew by about the same margin. On June 10th, the second crew won a rather unsatisfactory race from St. George ' s School, in which their opponents were badly handicapped by a strange boat. On Speech Day, June 23rd, the second crew beat a J.B.A.A. novice crew easily over the five-eighths of a mile course, and the first crew dealt similarly with an Old Boys ' crew over the same distance. A Brentwood crew will be rowing in the J.B.A.A. regatta on July 2nd and it is hoped that a crew may be entered for the N.P.A.A.O. Regatta in Vancouver. ist CREW. Page Twelve
