Grade 11 Soccer O HE SENIOR Soccer team was taken over by Mr. Simms, who devoted much of his time to producing a team worthy of inter-high competition. They were up against more experienced aggregations and were not able to win any games, but on several occasions they forced their rivals to give everything they had in order to down the Purple and Gold. The team line up as below: M. Montgomery (goalie)—Morry proved indispensable to the team on innumer¬ able occasions. One of the best in the league. H. Purdy (defence)—An outstanding defence man, successfully breaks up oppos¬ ing forwards. One of the best. G. Greene (defence)—George’s strong kicks were an asset to the team. J. Volkman (centre-half)—A fast, tricky player, light for his position but plays it well. A. Whiteford (left-half)—This was Archie’s first year in football, but he cer¬ tainly made the most of it. G. Horton (right-half)—A steady player who can be depended upon when in a scoring position. H. Badger (centre forward)—A fast man, came into the game late in the season. Bob Waylett (inside right)—Rather inexperienced but did his share of the work. B. Boivin (inside left)—Another player who came into the game late but went well. C. Clark (left wing and captain)—A good player who worked hard and played his position well. T. Kendall (right wing)—A good wing man who played his position well. The substitutes were as follows: N. Campbell, B. Clarke, W. Carlton, I. Philips, W. Spafford, D. Goldstein, B. Rutherford.

Grade 10 Soccer ' HE JUNIOR Soccer Team was under the supervision of Mr. T. A. Arnason, f and “Scotty” Lang, who assisted in the coaching. The team was un- fortunate in losing all games of its schedule, but we hope that the ex¬ perience gained by the members will prove to be of great help in the formation of a Senior team next year. The players were as follows: Hawkins (goalie)—Handled his job in a very capable manner. Deimage (full back)—A light man but always on the job. Christy (full back)—A strong kicker, should be among the best next year. Partington (left half)—Inexperienced, but played his position well—should show to good advantage next year. Small (centre forward)—A small player for this position, but can use his head and kick well. Potter (right wing and captain)—Played a fine game in his position, rather light, but fast on his feet Taylor (inside left)—A good, cautious forward who worked hard in his position. Bowie (left wing)—A tricky, fast winger with plenty of accuracy—a hard worker.
