SPORTS The 1967-68 sporting year for the Emma teams was one of being the brides¬ maid, but seldom the bride. It was a dis¬ appointing year for last year ' s volleyball championship team, however, the year was highlighted for Emmanuel in many of the other sports. The Emmanuel soccer team had a fantastic year, although they lost thefinal championship game. The same story was true for many of the teams; for example, basketball, the Little 500, football and waterpolo. The surprise of the year had to be the Emmanuel hockey team, which had a successful year in so far as it walked away with first place in its league. As far a s I was concerned the best showing Emma put forth was not in the sports played, but with the fervor and spirit ex¬ hibited in each and every event. The seniors led the way for the frosh , who were unbe¬ lievably active in displaying their desire to win for Emma in theirfirst year. I only hope that next year ' s sports rep has just as a suc¬ cessful and enjoyable timeas I hadthisyear. Many thanks to all the Emma boys who par¬ ticipated in the various sports. Good luck in the upcoming year. Ron McMullen 1967 - 68 Sports Rep. SOCCER The season proved very successful to the team as it lost only one league game and that was to the eventual championship Arts team that again defeated Emmanuel in the final game of the playoffs. Standouts on the team were Dave Brown in Goal, Arthur Nash at forward center, Terry Brooker roving forward and Frank McMenemy, the goal scoring defensive half.

DEBATING The college debating program was a successful one this year. Participation was very good both by Freshmen and old-timers. The Richardson Cup contest for Impromptu Speecheswas hotly contested by an entry of 18 contestants. After a closely fought and very entertaining final the honors went to Fred Gowing. There were six teams entered for the Guild Cup debates and topics ranged from separatism to mini-skirts. The final was so close that the judges started a debate of their own to decide who had won. The vic¬ torious team consisted of Cam MacKay and John Mash. The one disappointment was that no entries could be found to take part in the University program. It seems that interest is high within the college but that contest¬ ants are reluctant to enter outside events. Pat Tomalin FOSTER PARENT’S PLAN The past two years seem to reflect a declining interest in the giving to this ob¬ jective. We started this year with a de- fecit and we are, at the time of writing, paid up only to March 1st. The money to carry us through until September still remains to be raised. It costs us $16 per month to support our foster child, Washington Penafiel, in Equador. Unless there is more support for this very worthwhile project it is possible that we may not be able to continue this charitable work next year. Pat Tomalin THEOLOGICAL SOCIETY The Theological Society has met on a regular weekly basis this year. We were fortunate to obtain use of the lounge in the old principal ' s residence, for which privi- ledge our thanks to the College. We have also been fortunate in obtaining a specified time on the time-table. Most of this year ' s meetings have been on the ' bear pit ' princi- pleand we haveobtained several noticables to sit on our hot seat. Among the clergy have been Bishop Steer, Dean Ford, Arch¬ deacons Steele, and Brandrick, and of course the faculty. Our Ecumenical en¬ counters were with Dr. Hall (St. Andrews), and Bishop Mahoney, the new Roman Catho¬ lic bishop. Lay people included Dr. Howard Adams, and Dr. Jaques. We also have had talks on the ' John Howard Society ' and on the work of the morality squad of the City Police. Our thanks to the speakers and to the faculty for their support and encouragement.

FOOTBALL It was a year of injuries and disappointment for the football players. Plagued by several key injuries late in the season, Emma failed to make the playoffs by virtue of a 1-0 loss to the league winners. Pharmacy, in the last game of the season. John Little, Doug Barmby, Bruch Baugh, and Cam MacKay performed well all season. TENNIS It was a surprised Emma who learned that a newcomer, BobAveyard, had won the tennis championship for the College. Congratulations are in order for Aussie for his fine performance.
