32 SPECULA JUNIOR INTERSCHOLASTIC RUGBY HE Juniors presented the strongest team that has represented the school for a number of years. They were in the race to the last game, when Brant- ford, a much heavier team, beat them when they were tied for first place. A great deal of credit for this success goes to Mr. MacLennan, of Ancient History fame, who was the Juniors' coach. He sacrificed much of his time in order to produce a winning team. The large turn- out at the initial practices was a pleasing feature of the season. The Juniors lined up as follows: Snap-H. Dando. Insides-W. Oliverg G. Hugo. Middles-C. Klagerg F. McDonald. Outsides-C. Campbellg M. Slater. Quarter-J. Dawson. Halves-A. Newlandsg G. Roelofsong L. Snelgrove. Flying Wing-H. Midgley. Subs.-S. Carothersg W. Cartwright, K. Ekinsg R. Hodgins, S. Sternallg D. Elliottg J. Robertson, S. Lorriman. vkikvk INTERFORM RUGBY These juvenile teams provided some very good games and the material developed will prove a valuable asset to the school teams of future years. This was evidenced by the splendid showing of this year's Junior Interscholastic team which drew many of its players from the interform squads of last year. Five teams composed the Junior section and three the Senior section. The final standings were as follows: 100 pound or Junior League Won Lost Tied Pts. Wolverines ...... 7 1 0 14 Panthers ..........

GALTONIA INTERSCHOLASTIC BASKETBALL HE Boys' Basketball team has done better than any G.C.I. team has ever done. In the City League the wear- ers of the red outfits earned a place in the play-offs, but did not compete owing to the proximity of the School League. In the Interscholastic League, the team Won their first two games at home against Kitchener and Guelph. This is the first time that a G.C.I. boys' team has out- pointed a Kitchener five in many years. The school lost to Kitchener in the north town and defeated Guelph at home. K.-W. C. I. and Galt were then tied for first place in the league. It was decided to play home-and-home games to decide the championship. The first game was played in Galt on Tuesday, February 19th. A very exciting game ended with K.-W. on the long end of a 24-20 score. In the return game a week later the Kitchener boys were extended to the limit to defeat our boys, 24-22. Mr. Tancock was coach of the team and a great deal of credit for the school's show- ing goes to him. The team was composed of the follow- ing: Forwards-Mclntosh, Burnett. Centre-Scott. Guards-Richmond, Lake. Subs.-Thompson. Hodgins, Walker, Dando, McDonald, Stahlschmidt. 1414211 INTERFORM BASKETBALL The interform basketball league this year was the most successful ever carried out. It had more teams than ever com- peting. 1d won the First Form Division, 2b the Second Form, and 5a Grads the Senior Division.

The senior rugby team has already captured the Hamilton Cup and the basketball team Went farther than any G.C.I. team has ever gone, when they forced a tie with Kitchener, thus necessitating play-off games. The gym. team is doing splendid work and everything points to this year's Physical Education Exhibition being bet- ter than ever. The prospects for a good track and field team are particularly bright and we will look forward to the team doing something of which the school can be proud when the W.O.S.S.A. meet comes around. Pk Pk W SENIOR INTERSCHOLASTIC RUGBY After an absence of three years the coveted Hamilton Cup has been brought back home. This year the team, under the able coaching of Hugh Scott, a former G.C.I. rugby star, finished their league schedule without a loss. Their closest game was in Kitchener, when this worthy team tied the wearers of the red, orange and blue, 11-11. The school's revenge came, however, in the return game, when they beat the K.-W. boys 18-0. No serious casualties weakened the team until, in the last scheduled game, in Brant- ford, Hodgins had his nose broken in a scrimmage. With the loss of their fleet half, the team almost lost heart and the half-time score was 5-3 for Brantford. This was the first time in the season that our team had been on the short end of the score. However, the boys came back and won the game, 15-5. In the W.O.S.S.A. finals, the school was drawn against the noted Sarnia squad, with the first game in Sarnia on Thanks- giving Day. The Sarnia team proved bet- ter at ploughing through mud than our boys, and though Galt secured the first touchdown, a good kicker and a strong wind was too much and the game went to Sarnia, 28-5. Those who made the trip will recall with pleasure for otherwisel the dinner on the train, the stop-over in Paris lOntarioJ, the card game fwas it rummy?J, and the many souvenirs secured in Sarnia and other places along the way. In the home game, weakened by the absence of many regulars due to injuries, the G.C.I. lost 18-2. In these two games, Farina New- lands, of the juniors, helped very ably to fill the gaps. It might also be mentioned that the Sarnia team went on and won the Canadian championship. Mr. Elton managed the team, and the boys certainly appreciate the help which he gave them.
