The Analecta 31 JUNIOR RUGBY First Game.—The season opened with a 17-0 shut out against St. Mary’s. Although their team was a little on the light side, the Saints put up a good fight. On the C.C.I. half line, Wilkie rendered a good account of himself, and no doubt if the ground had not been under six inches of snow and slusli, at the time, he would have added considerable to the score. Second Game.—The second game was a hard fought battle. It is said to have been the best, and hardest fought Junior Rugby game ever played in Calgary. The teams were about even in weight and speed and although the Centrals had a better line, the easterners had the pick of the half backs. The score stood 1-0 until the dying moments of the game when, with two minutes to go, a field goal was dropped between the bars from twenty-five yards out, to make the score 4-0 for East Calgary. Third Game.—Even with the aid of several Intermediates and Seniors Western Canada College went down to a 23-0 defeat. The long runs of Wilkie and Garden featured the playing. The line did some very effective work, and with a little co-operation of the half line the team stood ready to carry home the cup. Fourth Game.—Their victory over the College brought Central into the semi-finals where they were called upon to meet Crescent Heights. Several on the C.C.I. squad failed to make the weight and met C.H.C.I. greatly handicapped, not having substitutes upon which to fall back. From the kick off the teams settled down to a hard grind and at the end of half time came around with no score. C.C.I. went in determined to liven things up this half and the team seemed suddenly to cut loose. They bucked their way down the field with the grim tenacity of a pile- driver. Then as fate would have it a kick was blocked and yards lost. Again the play was tried, and again it failed. This took the pep,out of the Central Boys and before they could recover, Bobby Mills, the aggressive little half of the Crescent team uncovered a pretty play and sprinted over the line for a touch-down. A convert followed making the score 6-0. Garden, who kicked for Central, and Gilhooly, were the choice of the team, all however, doing more than their share. The C.C.I. Junior Rugby team, although it did not win the much wanted trophy, turned in a credible showing. The line was a world of strength and was without a doubt the best Junior line in the city. The halves were not only fast and heavy but unveiled some nice plays. It is without a doubt that had a coach been secured at the first of the season there would have been more silverware in the school than at present. However, the boys did not have a coach but under the able managing of Frank Dickson, their captain the team progressed excellently. AN APPRECIATION The whole reason that this year’s rugby season was so successful from every standpoint is due to the Rugby Committee who drew up the schedule and to the efficient referees. The C.C.I. teams sincerely thank all referees and judges of play, who kindly acted when approached by the captains of the teams. The referees are: Captain A. H. Ferguson, Major Williams, Mr. Ross, Mr. Archie McTeer, Mr. J. Clancy, Joe McGolderick and Maurice Fidler.

32 The Analecta 1 BASKETBALL Central has achieved success in yet another line of sport—basketball— and now holds the envious record of having been defeated but once in seven starts. The formation of a C.C.I. Boys’ Basketball Team was found to be possible through certain activities of the Hi-Y Club of this school. The material for a team was brought to light in a two game, inter-room, series played at the Y.M.C.A. In their first game, against Tech, the Centrals took the small end of a 34-27 score, their first and only defeat. Next, two teams were selected from the school and a game played at the “Y”. With the Girls’ Senior Basketball Team, who were breaking into boys’ rules the boys got two good practices which improved team play to a great extent. Their next game, against the Crescents was played at the Y.M.C.A. and although the Centrals took the victory 53-18, the score was no indica¬ tion of the equality of the teams. South Calgary fell easy prey to their next invasion which resulted in another win for Central 44-17. At W.C.C. they had their first close game. As the floor was small, open playing was lacking, hence fouls were imposed on both teams frequently. The game ended 24-20 for C.C.I. Those who saw the second C.C.I.-South Calgary clash were treated to the best game of the season. Although the squad from Central lead the score, from the tip-off, South Calgary was always dangerous. The dying moments of the memorable game saw the red and green climb to within two points of a win. Central, however, adding another victory to the string with a score of 24-22. Western Canada has been their latest victim, who succumbed to a score of 48-14, the game being played at the Y.M.C.A. Players representing C.C.I. in inter-school games have been: Defence, Ken McCallum, Reub Gardner, Layt. Gardner, Len Graves and Tom Moore. Forwards, Fat Cooper (Vice-Capt.), Frank Kennedy, Les. Ashton, Everet Borgal, Emerson Borgal, Les. Oulton, Wilbur Robertson and Rev. Harris (Capt.) SENIOR HOCKEY The Senior Hockey Team finished second in the Southern section for the season 1925-26. For the past three years C.C.I. has held the cham¬ pionship and this year it was a great disappointment to lose. The first game was played with South Calgary, who were lucky enough to win. C.C.I. had had very little practice as a team and were without the services of their goalkeeper during the first period. South Calgary notched two goals in the first frame to give them all the lead that was necessary. In the last two periods C.C.I. were by far the better team and with the aid of “Seive” Thorn in goal put up a fine game. However, the ice was slushy and so cut up that C.C.I. were only able to score one
