62 SPECULA THE CANNIBALS: Tait, Rowe, Sharp, Head, Cooper, Coedy, Margoles McCallum, Egoff, MacDonald, Ungerl Wicken, Eccles, Welch, Prestwich, Fyfe, Hooper. The senior series comprised of much GALTONIA heavier boys was captured by the Rangers, a more conservative name. Four wins and one loss was their claim to fame. THE RANGERS : Avison, Sargeant, Sykes, Walker, Burden, Cation, Bevan, Oliver, Dunn, Dietrich, Tutton, Wild, Mast. AEN! INTERSCHOLASTIC BASKETBALL TEAM First Row, left to right-Midgley, Roe-lofson, Dando QCapt.b, Thompson, Campbell, Martin. Second Row-Baird, Kemp, Lorriman, Hodgins. Third Row-Mr. D. Boyd, B.A. CCoachJ, J. Dawson QMgr.j INTERSCHOLASTIC BASKETBALL HOUGH unable to compete in senior rugby, the old school succeeded, nev- ertheless in putting a basketball team on the floor. Weakened as in rugby, through the inability of many of the older players to acquire the needed percentage and others who did not condescend to .turn out, the appearance of but one regular of other years caused quite a surprise. The first Wossa game was with Guelph at home and for the first half of the game Galt held 'her own. The latter half, how- ever, saw a reversal of form, on the par.t of the visitors, and with McGilvray scor- ing fifteen points Galt's chances of vic- tory fled. Final score: Guelph 35, Galt 26. With Kitchener our team fought two great battles, both of which fell to the enemy. Nevertheless the G. C. I. fought 'hard and in losing felt no misgivings for the victory of a better team. The last game was played in Guelph and here again we went down to defeat. With Dunc McIntosh the only regular of other years, back in uniform, the team might owe its standing to inexperience. That experience has now been given to them and with the loss of but two players from this year's squad we smilingly look toward a prosperous future. To Mr. Boyd fell ,the task of building a team and the measure of success that they surprisingly attained is credited much to his able coaching. The team:- Centre-Thomson. Forwards-Mclntoshg Dando. Guards-Hodginsg Roelofson. Subs.-Martin, Campbell, Baird, Midg- leyg Kemp.

Unsworth tMgr.l To Mr. MacLennan, that friend of every gridder, may We, the entire School give thanks. He kept good faith and coached those fighting juniors to victory. Through mud and rain, he stayed with them ever alert to anyshow of weakness. The league, itself, developed into a struggle between Brantford, Kitchener and Galt with Guelph the weak sister of the group. Galt lost to K. and W. in a close game and K. and W. in turn dropped before Brantford, who were easily defeat- ed by our own Juniors. After the smoke had cleared away, Galt and Brantford were ordered to play off for the title. In this game the entire team played inspired football and as a result the McFadyen cup is now with us. CCC INTERFORM RUGBY HE true value of this league has in- deed made itself known. A glance over the Champion Junior line up will reveal many of the graduates from these ranks. The G. C. I. backfield played a great part in the victory. The sensational run- ning of Snelgrove and Peters, Dawson's tackling and Roelofson's kicking and plunging were easily of senior caliber. The tackling of the team as a whole was outstanding, this property alone showing that the youngsters had the goods. THE McFADYEN CHAMPIONS Flying wing-H. Dando. Halves-Snelgroveg Peters, Roelofson. Quarter-Dawson QCapt.l. Snap-Hodgins. Insides-Hugo, Mills. Middles-Kemp, Huggins. Outsides-Campbell, Sneath. They also served-Smith, Hughes, Bond, Dietrich, Lorriman.

The winner of the Junior series was the Cannibals who, finished the series with one loss against four Wins. Y l

P SPECULA GALTONIA 63 INTERFORM BASKETBALL ERHAPS the most active of all boys' sports is interform basketball. It is an understood fact that more students participate in this sport than in any other within .the school. The gallery is constantly lined with en- thusiastic supporters who derive much amusement from the games. The laurels for the first formers were captured by the technical form, Tlc, while form 2b finish in front of the second form group. The senior championship was won by form 4b who, as usual, continued into the playoffs to take the Tancock shield, em- blematic of the school championship. Tlc-First Formers-Raynor, Markar, ian, Richardson, Thompson, Panabaker. 2b-Second formers-Cartwright, Roos, Hipel, Hamel, McCurdy, Bond, McDermid. 4b-School Champions-Scott, Rich- mond, Hughes, Thompson, Handorf, Mur- ray, Campbell.

Baird The next activity that is ready for com- peti.tive sport is undoubtedly the Gym. team. Their work in the past years .has been unexcelled by any other organiza- tion within the school. Their various feats on the high bar, rings and trapeze, are anything but comfortable for one with weak nerves. The Physical Exhibition be- comes with each successive year a bigger and better display largely through the work of this team. Tn Mr. Donaldson, the team have an ex- cellent instructor who is well fitted for the Work in hand. At present the team is busy with flyaways and full hawks, two very diflicult movements on the apparatus. The team of this year is captained by Doug. Kemp. Gym.
