INTER-HIGH BASKET-BALL Our Senior Hoopslers . . . We Die Hard Early in November Coach Harold Mauthe called the first practice for boys interested in playing senior basketball. As usual, a gym full of talent turned out but unfortunately only a dozen boys were selected. How¬ ever, the selected dozen was the cream of the crop and represented the school in Inter-High and International com¬ petition very honorably. This year’s team, composed of Mitch Baryluk and Albert Glovitski, members of the famous Stellars and of last year’s team, Bruce Allan, Bill Tuchak and Ken Peters, other seniors from last year, and Simeon Dolhun, spark-plug and captain of last year’s junior team, was the team to beat in the Inter-High loop. It went through the schedule losing only two games — both to the team from Gordon Bell. These two upsets were very sad indeed, as New¬ ton was out to redeem the Manitoba Championship which so many times before had been won by the Nor’- Westers. Once again our boys visited Warren, Minnesota, and Warren sent up a team in return. Also, once again our team was beaten in all three games and was taught the value of consistent practice. The game this year in Winnipeg was played at the Sargent Park school where a large crowd of students, graduates, teachers and parents as¬ sembled to support this exhibition game which is becoming an annual event. Candids of the 49-50 Team Simeon Dolhun — One of this year’s high scorers and one of the most valu¬ able men on the team. An excellent dribbler, passer, player and shot. Bill Tuchak — The biggest boy on the team and the one who never fails to be represented on the scoring sheet. Albert Glovitski — A “Stellar” who can (Continued on Page 86) SENIOR BOYS ' BASKETBALL TEAM. 1949-50 BACK HOW (left to right)—Mr. Avery (coach), Albert Glovitski, Ken Peters, Roy Wilkinson, Bob Neblouch, Mitch Baryluk.

INTER-HIGH SOCCER . . . Our Senior Champs Keeping up the old Newton tradition that there is at least one championship cup on the Nor’Wester mantle, the Senior Soccer eleven ended the fall season without a setback, soundly trouncing last year’s champs, St. John’s Tech, and never giving Kelvin or Daniel even the slightest chance. Under the capable coaching of Mr. ■‘Soccer” Avery, the Senior squad maintained city soccer supremacy for the third straight year at dear old Newton. SUMMARY OF SOCCER GAMES In the first game of the season the Newton squad defeated the St. John’s team by a score of 2-1, and followed it up in convincing fashion by trounc¬ ing the Kelvin Katies to the tune of 2 - 0 . Daniel came, and Daniel went, but (Continued on Page 87) OUR JUNIOR SQUAD .... They Take II On The Shin Although this year’s junior soccer squad did not follow in their older brothers’ footsteps, they gave a good account of themselves in league play finishing in second place position. Com¬ bining “know-how” and fine teamwork the team established a good record winning three, tying one, and losing two for a total of 7 points, one short of tying the league leaders and reach¬ ing the championship playoff with Daniel Mac and Gordon Bell. With Mr. Hrenchuk at the helm supervising and sometimes taking part in the practices the young grade ten¬ ners absorbed fundamentals of the soccer game and with every outing on the soccer pitch improved and strengthened their game. Centre Ernie Dzamon (captain), wingers Bob Kostiuk and Bernie Krill, and insides Ed Dolhun and Johnny (Continued on Page 86) JUNIOR BOYS’ SOCCER TEAM, 1949-50 BACK ROW (left to right)—Lawrence Ostry, Zenon Konyk, Walter Bowden, Mike Lewicki, Mr. Hrenchuk (coach), Joe Borchynski, Howard Carlson, Bernard Krill, Leo Konyk.

Gave Their All Under the patient and efficient reaching of Mr. Hrenchuk our Junior Basketballers developed into a power¬ ful Title Contender, only to flounder in the stretch and suffer the fate of their Senior brethren — second place. They opened their season with a rather unimpressive 32-27 victory over a battling Kelvin “five” and it was mainly due to the experience of the “KIK” line (Ketchen, Ingaldson and Komishon) that the Newton boys sal¬ vaged the victory. However, vast improvement was shown in the second outing when our young cagers shellacked the Gordon Bell squad 42-27. The scoring in this game was fairly evenly distributed with the top man, Ernie Dzamon gar¬ nering 9 points. A complete reversal of form was in evidence in the third game when the Juniors dropped their first contest of the season to Tech 27-32. Spotty play on the part of the whole squad was the main cause for an unwarranted loss. The second loss came from the hands of Daniel McIntyre. The game was a battle all the way with Daniel putting cn a last quarter spurt to edge out a dead-game Newton quintet 29-35. Along about this time Newton hit their mid-season form and under the inspired defensive play of such fellows as Palisnuk, Schnoor and Crossley. and the offensive work of Dzamon, Station and the old faithful “KIK” line a rejuvenated Newton squad “rapped in” three successive victories, 23-15 over Kelvin, 37-34 over Gorden Bell — then, sparked by Jim Komi- shon’s brilliant 16 point effort, they trounced an injury-riddled St. John’s team 39-21. The stage was now set for the last game of the season. This contest was a “do or die” effort for our cagers in view of the fact that they trailed a (Continued on Page 85) Newtonian 63
