THE NEWTONIAN 21 ISAAC NEWTON One day as Isaac Newton sat beneath an apple tree He gazed and gazed intently at the book upon his knee. In those days books were scarce, and so it really was a treat.— An apple fell from off the tree, and landed at his feet. “I wonder why they don’t fall up instead of falling down?” The more he thought the matter out, the greater was his frown. Years passed away. To Isaac yet had no conclusion come. One day his pipe fell from his mouth and burnt his wrinkled thumb. He jumped up from his his easy chair and shouted loud with glee. T’was then that Newton wrote for us the “Law of Gravity.” Anonymous. HOYS’ JUNIOR BASKETBALL The Juniors started out the year badly with two losses, but came back with a rush, winning five out of the six remaining games to gain second place. The team was unable to hold the cup won by last year’s brilliant team, and it was taken by the Daniel MacIntyre squad. David Baker starred on the defence, and Albin Jurczak on the forward line. The games were lost against Daniel MacIntyre (two) and Gordon Bell (two), and the wins were gained at the expense of Gordon Bell, Kelvin (two) games, and St. John’s (two games). Points scored for: 219; points scored against: 223.

BOYS’ SENIOR BASKETBALL This year’s Seniors were more successful than last year’s unfortunate team, and the boys arrived in third place, losing out because of Daniel Mac¬ Intyre’s champion aggregation. The team was coached by Martin Terry, who also coached the Juniors and Girls’ Basketball teams. Three games were lost, two against Daniel Mac., one against St. John’s and one game was tied with Kelvin in a rousing struggle, 26 - 26. The teams beaten were St. John’s, Gordon Bell (two games), and Kelvin. Mr. Pigott managed the team.

Jorzak, guard; Paul Holeeka, guard. GRADUATES ON GIRLS’ TEAMS Among our more athletically inclined graduates are a few who have kept up their Isaac Newton training and distinguished themselves in the basketball field. These are Olga Kolodie and Julia Matoski, both players on the Kiwanis Intermediate team. Nan Foster also did her share on the Junior team. The Kiwanis girls hold the Winnipeg Intermediate Championship for 1935. They also competed for the Senior trophy but lost by one point in a hard fought game with the Blue Eagles. We sincerely hope that more of our pupils, after leaving school, will keep up their athletics. FOOTBALL The football team was not very successful, although big Jerry Holleck was in goal. Before him, Arvid Zelmer and Bill (Sam) Pronyshyn did their duty. The half-line included Frank Baker at centre, Joe Nowak at right and Joe Mushy opposite him. The firing line had Bill Kalyniuk at the pivot posi¬ tion, flanked by Ferdinand Petrovitch and Mike Medwick. Medwick had his shoulder dislocated near the end of the season. The outside lines were patrolled by Ed. Jorzak and John Wilkinson, on right and left respectively. Mr. Davey was in charge of the team.
