THE NEWTONIAN 23 SENIOR BASKETBALL Third Row:—Paul Holeeka, Jerry Hallock, Bill Piniak, Bill Kalyniuk. Second Row --Nick Billenky, Ben Smith, A. V. Piggot (Manager), Martin Terry (Coach), Ed. Jorzak. First Row;—Carl. Wazny, Dave Stern. 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. The team:—Jerry Holleck, centre; Bill Piniak, centre; Ben Smith (cap¬ tain), right wing; Carl Wozny, right wing; Nick Billenky, left wing; Dave Stern, left wing; Bill Kalyniuk, guard; Ed. 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.

Basketball pennant rested in Rooms 6 and 7, and the Volleyball pennant was earned by Room 19. The Grade XI girls’ volleyball was won by Room 5, and Room 14 took the Grade X Volleyball. An inter-room hockey schedule was started, but was not finished on account of the weather melting the available ice. THE NEWTONIANS The Newtonians were a Basketball team made up of graduates and pre¬ sent scholars of the school.

24 THE NEWTONIAN FOOTBALL Third Row -Joe Pudawick, Arvid Zelmer, Jerry Hallock, Joe Mushy, Frank Baker (Capt.) Second Row: —Bill Kalyniuk, John Wilkinson, F, C. Davey (manager), David Baker, Ed. Jorzak. Front Row:—Mike Medwick, Joe Nowak, Ferdinand Petrovitch. BOYS’ VOLLEYBALL A volleyball team was formed, but as no regular league had been organ¬ ized, three exhibition games were played with the Daniel MacIntyre Colle¬ giate Institute. Two games were won and one lost. Mr. Pearce was in charge of the team, and Mr. Pigott coached it excellently. The team:—Paul Holeeka (captain); Joe Petrowski, Bill Piniak, Paul Zack, Jerry Hallock, Adolbert Ruccius. Substitutes:—Laurence Kolisnyk and Antony Natsuk. FIELD DAY Boys Last year’s field day meet was not very successful for the Isaac Newton athletes, six points being the sum total gained. Roy Kepron came second in the Senior shot-put, and Sam Gurwich second in the Primary hop, step and jump. He also came third in the 100-yard sprint. Victor Piliuk came third in the Junior shot-put. The Shuttles did not place at all, and all other repre¬ sentatives failed. This year’s prospects look better, with Ed. Jurczak putting the shot and broad jumping, and Cassimer Geneja high jumping. This will be the second year of competition for Isaac Newton in the Inter-High School Field and Track meet, and we hope to show our position as an athletic-minded school. GIRLS’ VOLLEYBALL The Isaac Newton volleyball team has succeeded in proving that a poor start does not always mean ; a poor finish. The loss of the first game only made the girls more determined, and in the end they got what they were after —the volleyball trophy. Under the capable coaching of Miss McCrum, the girls developed into a speedy little team and simply “walked away” with the remaining seven games. This was due to their good team work and their ability in “rattling” the opposing players with excellent passing and spiking. The players on the team were: Jean Zenyk (captain), Francis Krawychk, Anne Sumbelerus, Anne Woczyn, Elsie Kotenko, Jessie Dyll, Milly Bobowski, Anne Jurens, and Mary Goshulak.
