RAREBITS 65 SENIOR BOYS' BASKETBALL TEAM Le-t to right-Art Langton tMgr.D lock Harrow, Bruce Lindley, Tom Hedley, Garnet Ireland, Ken Borisuk, Mr. las. MacF. Bates CPr1ncxpalJ OAKVILLE GAME-The great game of the season was at hand. The day was perfect and we were out to defeat our ancient enemies. The game was played at Oakville before a large, eager crowd. We established our superiority by a score of 14 to 4. The home game brought even more glory than the pre- ceding one. This game gave us the group championship. WELLAND GAME-The first game for the championship of Niagara District was played at Welland. We did not know what to expect since we had never competed in that district before. Our speed merchants showed their stuff and created a score of 45 to 0 in the home and home games. GRIMSBY GAME-'WC played Grimsby in the finals. Our desire for this meeting was not lessened by our former clashes. We were out to win. The blue and gold didn't disappoint us and brought home the bacon. The result of the two games formed the winning score of 27 points. LAST GAME-Although out of our class we got into the play-offs for the Ontario Championships. Three teams had to play off. We picked Delta Col- legiate. Before a large crowd on a frozen field we struggled to keep our footing during that important game. The first half ended with a score of 10 to 5 in favour of Delta. The game ended with a score of 41 to 6 in favour of the same. This seemingly overwhelming score was no indication of the game. We fought them cleanly and determindedly and on a ordinary field would have made the score close. SENIOR RUGBY PERSONNEL Jlr. J. C. Sf. John CC0ac!1D-The team as a whole would like to express their feelings towards our able coach. What- ever we do or wherever we go we shall., always remember Saint , our loyal friend. Captain Richard Berry tHaZf Backl- Filling his well-earned position, he was one of our outstanding players. He will serve as a model for any first-formers with rugby ambitions. Bruce Lindley t0uf.r1'deD-Hooker Lind- ley can surely hook them around the ankles. Keep it up, old man. Frank Etrafn COuf.rz'de and Halfl- He certainly knows his game when he is tackling. Without doubt he will be a great asset next year. drclife f1Icf1l1'll1'an Cffalfj-He has most decidedly proved outstanding this year. He is a sure catcher, and as

Bill fIfk1'n.r0n, Sub-guard-The small- est man on the squad but with prospect of becoming a great player in a year or two. , Seninr Ziughg No doubt the fall term of 1950 came too soon for some of us but we all came back, heartily-the ambitious youths less leaving their various jobs and the ambitious putting away their clubs and the racquets. Eagerly the rookies and last year's regulars would treat the ball roughly every opportunity. Soon a well trained rugby team was ready to bring glory to the good old B. H. S. A MILTON GAME-The first game of the season turned out better than our wildest hopes. The score ended with a victory of 57 to 0. WATERDOWN GAME-The following week we journeyed to Waterdown. The weather although quite windy, was, in other ways, ideal: We defeated our opponents with a score of 54 to 25. The return game was even 'more decisive.
