This distressing situation was mostly brought about by a lack of interest on the part of the students, especially the students of grades nine and ten. This year there were only six teams operating in each league as compared to seven in each league last year and these twelve teams had a hard time finding twelve players. The league was again under the direction of Father Valeriote who was assisted by Father Cote. A few of the higher grade students and a couple of junior football players had the difficult task of trying to officiate the league's hectic games. 'The equipment used by the players at the first of the season was far from good and a little change for the better came at the end of the interscholastic football schedule for we were fortunate enough to obtain the junior's equipment. The fan support was not up to expectations, but those who did were pleased with the general play and the roughness of the boys. One of our most enthusiastic supporters was Father Howcroft, one of the coaches of the school's junior foot- ball team, who came to the games seeking new talent but was more amazed by the players' tactics. Father Dwyer, the other coach of the junior football team, also made an appearance now and then. The schedule, which was constantly hampered by the elements, mainly rain and snow, was shortened quite a bit and the teams only played about four games apiece. This made it impossible to have champions declared for there was no time for playoffs and the early Christmas examinations did not keep any. The strongest teams in senior competitions were 9 - 1 and 10 - 1 combines and 9 - 2 and 10 - Zcombines. Both teams had players who showed a lot of promise Quality ond Service For Over 30 Yeors At Som Monson Sporting Goods ond Luggage Speciolists 71 King St. W, JA 7-4500 and who should be given a good look over by the football coaches. Of the six junior teams only one showed im- pressive play. This team was 9 and 10-4 combines who had some prom- ising young football players on its squad. On the whole house league foot- ball took a downhill step in its develop- ment but brighter things are looked for in the future and do not be surprised to find many house league graduates on next years junior or senior school foot- ball team.

SENIOR BASKETBALL TOP ROW: Mike Hand, Cliff Casey, Managersg Stan Serafin, Joe Kielb, Bill Kantor, Mr. R. Tighe, Absent, Ted Carney. FRGNT ROW: Hob Huehes, Al Healy, Joe Henderson, Paul Chesla. Fight! Fight! Fight! ..... This just about gives the whole summary for the Senior Basketball Season. The examinations shook a lot of Cathedral's man-power this year for both the Juniors and Seniors. This left Mr. Tighe with a squad of seven or eight men. Disaster had to strike the team this year when we lost a valuable player. He is, of course, our six-foot ace, Ed Bordas. His value was shown in the second Delta game, when the team put up a strong fight until three of our players were fouled out. Congratulations go to Mr. Tighe and his team. They upheld the honour of the school and displayed the team spirit for which they are noted.
