Brentwood College Magazine mastered the conditions well and a most exciting race took place. St. George ' s led from the start, but just before half-way Barrett-Lennard spurted well, send- ing Brentwood a few feet ahead. From this point to the finish it was a gallant struggle, first one boat then the other gaining a few feet, until Brentwood man- aged to pass the post with a lead of one-third of a length. St. George ' s looked a much improved crew and rowed in better style than their opponents. Brentwood crew : Duncan (bow), Asselstine (2), Thwaites (3), Barrett-Lennard ( stroke ) . St. George ' s crew : Drabble (bow), Sloan (2), Sweeney (3), Walls (stroke). Rowing Characters C. M. B. SYMONS — A much improved oar. He was setting a good rhythm until his accident put him out of the crew. R. THWAITES — Has rowed well throughout the year. His chief fault has been a tendency to rush his slide. D. BARRETT-LENNARD— A most adaptable oar, he has fitted into any place in the crew and proved most valuable. A. B. DUNCAN — Has a very weak finish which he must try to improve. Races well. T. ASSELSTINE — He is improving fast and should be a valuable member of next year ' s crew. Tennis Owing to the fact that the Summer Term was so short this year, there were very few Tennis matches.

B r e 11 1 w o o d College Magazine LIGHT, inexperienced team, and lacking in speed and dash in the three- quarters, we were nevertheless able to put up a stout display towards the end of the season. The forwards, though lacking in cleverness, always worked well together as a pack; the outsides, though fairly sound in defence, seemed to be content if they succeeded in keeping the score of their opponents within reasonable bounds. The season ended in a promising fashion with three successive wins, bringing our wins to five for the season. If, next season, they can learn that the art of defence lies in attack, we should have a very useful side. E. M. WILLIAMS (Captain) — A very useful fly-half. He has a good pair of hands, a good kick and an eye for an opening. A. D. RHODES — He has a good knowledge of the forward game; tackles well and leads the pack well. D. L. BARRETT-LENNARD — A hard-working, conscientious scrum-half. He is learn- ing to use his voice at the right times. B. S. ALEXANDER — A considerably improved forward. He now puts his weight to good use in the tight and the loose scrums. C. M. SYMONS — A much improved forward. Dribbles well and always works hard throughout the game. G. P. KIDD — A strong runner, but weak in defence. D. ANGUS — Full-back. A very strong kick and a useful turn of speed. He must learn to throw himself at his man. R. THWAITES — Forward. Uses his feet well and backs up in the loose. L. V. RAY — With more experience and greater keenness he should prove a very use- ful forward. R. FIELD — He has good hands and a good eye for an opening. He gained confidence during the season and with more weight will be a very useful centre-three-quarter. W. O. BUSH — A good tackle. He must learn when and how to pass. A. B. DUNCAN — He used his weight to advantage. A steady forward. J. BARBER-STARKEY — Steady and hard-working. A much improved player.
