He crossed the tape with yards to spare, netting a welcome three points for the school. Later, in the Senior mile, he again outdistanced a field of classy runners to annex the Porte and Markle shield. What’s in a name? Another record went by the hoard when Art Pfeffer won the Intermediate running broad jump with a wonderful leap of 19 ft. 11 in. Bill Taylor climaxed an outstanding performance by winning the Junior 220. He clipped % of a sec¬ ond from the former mark. One of the most thrilling races ended with Norm Anderson crossing the tape a dead tie with Joe Laviit -of St. John’s in the Intermediate mile. Bob Bradshaw, Jack Carmichael, Manley Bond, and others who gave of their best, are deserving of mention. Roy ,Heide, our track captain, merits special praise. He gave much of his time and attention to the coaching of the boys. A little review of the situation may be in order. The weak places in the team seem to lie in the boys’ shuttles, COMPLIMENTS OF THE SARGENT PHARMACY LTD. SARGENT AND TORONTO K. G. HARMAN JIMMIE MURPHY R. L. HARMAN

D. M.C. I. BREEZES 117 girls’ sprints and jumps. These sprints were not productive of points with the exception of Genevieve Johns’ splen¬ did performance. The girls shone in the organized games, where they scor¬ ed twenty points out of a possible twenty. In the shuttles, they scored sixteen out of twenty. In the distance events we appeared to be supreme, capturing the Senior mile, the Senior half and the Junior half, tieing the Intermediate mile and placing second in the Intermediate half. Such, how¬ ever, was not the case. Kelvin scored 1% points more than we did in this section, amassing a total of 14 points. The reason for this lies in the num¬ ber of seconds and thirds secured by their runners. D.M.C.I. has always been noted for the outstanding per¬ formers in the distances, but we need a number of good strong runners cap¬ able of placing second or third and of backing up the stars. All of which goes to show that it is the team that wins meets, not the individual aces.

The building of the plane has been an interesting un¬ dertaking, for it was constructed in the factory of youth. The materials for the building of the plane have been delivered to the factory by our par¬ ents, in the forms of healthy bodies and receptive minds. The rough as¬ sembling of the structure was done by the elementary schools and then passed on to the high school for the final and essential adjustments. Also in that part of the workshop was the engine tuned up and as far as possible made to hit on all cylinders. Finally it stands ready upon the testing field of life, awaiting to get away to a good start. Therein we may compare our¬ selves with the airplane, for today we stand ready to make our way into the world, and we realize that even as the airplane must depend upon it¬ self for its own success, so must we, if we are to gain our life’s objective. Let us pause a moment to consider just what is the object in preparing this so-called plane, or in other words,
