recent Olympic gamesg Bert Pearson, the Hamilton school-boy sprint sensa- tion, George Spitz, the world's great- est indoor high jumperg and Glenn Cunningham, the greatest indoor miler on this continent, all combined to make the Championships the most out- standing yet held. In the running high jump, A. W. Lowes, of Eastern Commerce. placed second, clearing the bar at six feet. Defeated only by Spitz, Lowes dis- played style that indicated greater honors to come. In the secondary school relay the Eastern Commerce team came second, defeated only by Central Tech. in a hard-fought and thrilling race. Final result: 1, Central Tech.g 2, Eastern Commerceg 3, Bloor Collegiate Insti- tute. Time 62 1X5 seconds. The runners for Commerce were: Lowes, Norman, Gibson and Smith. It is to be hoped that in future years other teams will represent Commerce and bring the school even greater honors. t ,k if Junior Cagers Speedy THE fast junior basketball team. fielded by Mr. Copp was a great improvement over last year's squad. The following is a resume of the sea- son: won 4: tied, 1: lost, 3. Sunny Knowles, right guard, was a regular player and a consistent scorer, good on the defensive too. Eddy Taylor, although a newcomer, was fast and a dangerous man around the basket. Neil Philip, forward. starred until knee injuries forced him to the bench for the remainder of the schedule. Alec Hill played brilliantly at defence, saving many baskets against Commerce and also scoring the occasional basket. Fred McDowell, our best junior player, was a dangerous and high- powered player, especially around the opponents' basket. R.

CWHNG CANCELLED T0 LACK UF FUNDS T'HE most startling an- nouncement in the entire history of the City of Toronto was made yes- terday afternoon, when the Bored of Education, after a prolonged session, decided to cancel all ex- aminations in high schools this year. The reason for this drastic action on the I i I part of the Bored of' Education is the present financial situation, the Chairman of the Bored revealed when reached b , Y telephone late last night. 1 Yes, he replied in answer to the query ofi our blundering reporter, it is true that there will be no examinations in high schools this year. A happy feature in the Bored of Education's report is that they have decided to pass all members of the staff of the Eastern Echo with first-class honors without the necessity of trying exams. After a strenuous week's practice, the Commerce Skippers, Hopscotch and Jacks Club entrained for Oakville to take part in the inter-high school chess tournament. The girls showed great form in yes- terday's workout, going through the double dutch, salt, pepper, vinegar, mus- tard, and tatting with faultless ease. WHOA PRESS NEWS ! Peanutrstand overturned!
