The team was organized and coached by Mr. Devitt, who was very eager that the school should be well represented. Although a real schedule was not drawn up a series of well-contested games was played with various schools. The playing of these smaller boys showed that they had the real Humberside spirit. The first game was with U.T.S. At the end of the first half it looked as though Humberside was not even going to see their opponents' goal line. However, in the last quarter McGee grabbed one of their passes and raced for a touchdown. The game ended with Humberside on the short end of a 6 to 5 score. Later, Humberside played with Central Commerce. Both teams fought tooth and nail throughout and at the end of full time neither team had been able to score. The Midgets next played Bloor at Trinity Park. Bloor had the bigger team but even with that advantage she could make no headway against the fighting little midgets from Humberside. However, near the end of the last quarter, Bloor got the breaks and scored the only point of the game on a kick to the deadline. Two weeks later Humberside closed the season with a game against Harbord at High Park. Although Humberside had the better coached team she could make no headway until the last quarter and even then, although having many opportunities, was able to score only one point to even the count. 117

, C Junior Soccer This year, many soccer aspirants turned out. After careful consideration, Mr. Norris picked the team and drilled them for the first game with Parkdale. We won this game easily by 3-O. Gur next game was with Bloor at Wfillowvale Park. 'That game was easy for us, too, and the score was 3-l. The team faced a stronger aggregation when they met Oakwood at Earlscourt Park. Playing in a heavy wind, we were held to a tie, 2-2. We met our first reverse when we lost to Central Commerce by 5-1. Humberside got the first goallbut Commerce tightened up and scored five points. Then we lost to Harbord at High Park by Z-O. We made many pressing attacks on Harbord's goal but were unable to score. The forward line, Scorrer, Nichols, Archbold, Roseborough, and Hunter combined well and received excellent support from the half-backs Pake, Sanders, and Acheson. Tufts and McLean fed the forwards well, while Ellison, in goal, was hard to get past. JU NIOR SOCCER J. Acheson, V. McEwen, R. Pake, L. Rowntree, C. McLean, N. Armstrong, Mr. Norris, J. Tuft, F.
