Paging Mr. Tilden! But alas! No Perrys or Tildens were produced from within the lofty por- tals of Glebe, and the teams were unsuccessful in their quest for interscholastic tennis titles. Owing to the lack of a tennis executive and tennis courts, Glebe tennis fans were forced to seek the aid of various clubs, for courts upon which to play their matches. To the St. james, Sunnyside and Rideau tennis clubs, the racquet- wielders of Glebe express their heartiest thanks. From a competitive viewpoint, the inter- scholastic efforts of the teams were most suc- cessful. The boys' team, consisting of jack Greene fcaptainQ, Gordon Shorter, Guy Mac- Farlane and Andrew Anderson, climaxed two rounds of brilliant play by reaching the finals of the interscholastic tennis play-downs. This team defeated Lisgar, former Winners of the O.D.L.T.A. shield, 3 events to z, and in the finals against Ottawa University were defeated by a similar score. In the girls' division, a team composed of Mary MacFarlane Ccaptainj, jean Lyon, Pat Lipsett and Ellen Finlayson, was equally suc- cessful. This team defeated Lisgar, winners of the O.D.L.T.A. shield in 1934, 3 events to 2, but in the semi-finals were defeated by the powerful Elmwood team 4 events to 1. Before closing this review of the year's activities, the members of the teams express their gratitude to Miss Norris and Mr. Camp- bell, whose co-operation made possible their efforts in interscholastic tennis. el124le

UX GLEBANAGXQQAQ ,QPALERE FLAMMAM From the results of these preliminaries four teams were selected to represent Glebe in the Southam Cup Race. The first team of Hammond, Heggtveit, Hitchman and Bishop successfully defended the Cup for the fifth consecutive year. Bob Hammond ran well to lead all others home by inore than two minutes. This year competition was very keen and Glebe's margin of victory was a matter of seconds. The second team of Rankin, Kuhns, Ault and Graham took fourth position. To create interest in ski racing, Novice and First Form races were held from the school over a short course. B. Wanless won the Novice, while G. Reddy captured the First Form event. In a downhill race held for the purpose of choosing teams for the Dr. Baird Trophy competition, B. Hitchman sped down the tricky course to capture first position, fully 5 seconds ahead of Ault and Hammond who tied second. In the slalom event, Ault, a junior skier of promise, was nosed out of primary honours by only one second. As a result of an excellent display in the combined downhill and slalom race, the Glebe team of Ault, Hitch- man, Kuhns and Hammond is first holder of the beautiful Dr. Baird Trophy donated by Dr. Baird for local inter- scholastic competition. Garnering a wide margin in the downhill race the Glebe runners annexed the slalom title to win the combined event by a considerable margin. The second team of D. Bishop, F. Heggtveit, T. MacDonald and T. Rettie took third place, followed by G. MacFar- lane, G. Graham, D. Price and F. Mears in next position. On the week-end of March ist Glebe sent two teams to the Inter-city Interscholastic meet at the Seignory Club. The first team of Hammond, Kuhns, Heggtveit and Hitch- man were successful in winning the Seignory Club Cup for the second successive year. The same team won the slalom event, were third in the Downhill and second in the cross country race. The second team placed fourth in the slalom, first in the Downhill, third in the cross country and fourth in the aggregate. In the slalom race Al Kuhns and Bob Hammond took second and third place, respectively. Art. Ault was third in the Downhill, while Bob Hammond and Dunbar Bishop were first and second in the cross country. The Club takes this means of thanking those who assisted in running off events, and in particular Mr. Camp- bell for his keen interest in the sport and for his very helpful advice at all times. --Q-4-4---W Judge:-'Alt seems to me that this case could have been settled out of courtfl Accused:- Too true, yer 'Onour.

Perhaps the most outstanding feature of our athletics this season is the surprising amount of enthusiasm displayed by the student body. There was a great in- crease in the sale of athletic tickets.

Phyllis Narraway AImIIN'roN, although a comparative new- comer to the school activities, is rapidly becoming one of our most popular in- door sports. So far only the girls have taken any part in this game in the school but, judging by the increasing interest shown, it probably will not be long before the boys are following our lead. In order to give encouragement to beginners, the Girls, Athletic Association has classihed the players into two groups for tournament pur- poses, A group consisting of the more experi- enced players, and B group of the compara- tive novices to the game. Last spring separate tournaments were held for juniors and Seniors in both classes A and MB . Cups and spoons were awarded to the winners. After many exciting and closely con- tested matches, the following players emerged winners: A 'roURNAMIsN'r Sr. Dozzblex-Beverley Dick, june McCann. Ir. Doubles-Beth Bryan, Jean Binks.
