A., rendered several musical numbers during the evening. Gordon Anderson, a former student, and now a professional actor, kindly assisted in making up the perform- ers. The Executive wishes to acknowledge the following courtesies: Scenery, Lyric Theatre: furniture, G. XV. Robinson Company, J. J. Snor, James st. south, and the Right House.

A.g Alan Christie, Arthur Turner, Lawrence Barry, Harvey Hall, Ernest Ballentine and Capt. J. M. Crawford. Editor's Note-Much of the success of the play was due to the splendid acting of 'iBill McCulloch. As usual, he played his role so naturally that the -audi- ence fully appreciated his talent. at TENNIS Honorary President-A. YV. Morris, M. A. Honorary Vice Pres.-Capt. J. R. Cornelius President-R. Armstrong Secretary-Trensurer-Jack Rogers Committee-Rob. Thompson, Fred Hodd, Dave Russell, and Messsrs. E. V. Clark, G. Allan. The organization meeting of the H. C. I. Tennis Association was held early in September. It was enthusiastically at- tended by a large number of pupils. Elections were held with the above results and a constitution drawn up. Also ar- rangements were made for a champion- ship tournament. The tournament was favoured by H110 weatherg a surprisingly large number of entries contributed to its success, and resulted in keen competition. The pre- liminary rounds were played and every- thing made ready for the 6llIllS, which were held on Saturday, November the tenth. 'The Inglewood Tennis Club generously permitted the H. C. I. T. A. the use Of their courts. Jack Kannawin met Doug Saunders in the semi-finals, and after a hard fought match succeeded in Winning, 6--1, 6-3. In the other semi-final Dave Russell was defeated by R. Arm- strong, ti-4, -1-G, 6-1. In the finals Kan- nawin and Armstrong fought it out with the final score of 6-l, 6-0, in favour of the latter. The double tinals resulted in one of the finest matches of the tourna- ment, the contestants being very evenly matched. Finally Kannawin and Russell succeeded in winning from Thompson and Davenport, 6--1, 2-6, 7-5. XV'hen we take into consideration that this is the Collegiate's first venture into the royal and ancient sport of tennis, the members of the Association have every reason to feel gratified with the season 's results. Many a ttdark horse was uncovered, and the prospects for a successful future are indeed very bright. The Executive have the utmost confidence that the reputation established by the Track, Football and Basketball Teams will be further enhanced by the addition of the Tennis Team. Editor's Note-Through his brilliant playing in winning the finals in the tourn- ament, Rus. Armstrong will receive his wings.
