Senior Hockey Team The senior hockey learn was rather slow in getting started this year: however they warmed up enough for their last game with Walkerville and won by the score of 8-0. This by the way was the first time in five years that our senior team has beaten the Walkerville team. Although the team was well balanced Ed Halle wide, goalie, and Jack Cates, forward, deserve special mention for their play throughout the year. Besides these players the team included: Gordon Edgar, captain, Bub Gamier, Bill Hunter. Jack Cape, Lloyd Curok, Norman Cazxola, Bill West, Joe Koskie. Junior Hockey Team The Juniors were also slow in getting started, as a matter of fact it seems they never did get started. Al¬ though the team was one of the lies! Kennedy has seen Dame Fortune forsook it and victory came not even once to our Juniors, Earl Brandy was the mainstay of the team scoring ten of the team ' s hard earned points during the season while jack Pinkerton, Bill Ogle. Kaye Heath, and Ted Bmlyrinksi all played well and accounted for several goals.

Both learns would like to extend their thanks to Mr. Thomson for the interest he took m the teams even though there were no prospects of championship,’ It has been brought to our attention that Mr. Thomson, al though he was sick, insisted on coaching his team in an important game. Football ' Phe fact that football was discontinued in the schools this year did not keep Kennedy from having its own pri- vale house leagues. There were three Iranis in (lie senior league and four m llu junior league and both leagues played eight man toot ball. Mike YuhasFs team took the senior championship after a hard fought season.

FIRST PRIZE— AN INVITATION Through a little country garden runs a laughing little stream. Where the tiny pebbles gurgle with delight; It you’re feeling blue some evening and of love you want to dream, Conte and listen to it singing in the night. It will lift your lonely spirit with its music soft and sweet. It will fill your heart with laughter clear and bright; It will chase away your worries, and your troubles come to meet And mingle with the beauty of the night. S on a pleasant evening, please accept my invitation To a party that has laughter of its own; It will be an inspiration and will raise your indignation That you might have missed a thrill you’d never known. —Jean MacKay. SECOND PRIZE— TO ENGLAND A land of hills and rocky rills, Of people that are fine, A thousand different dialects. The smell of salt-sea rime. The ringing bells of old St. Paul’s, The towers that guard the Thames, A castle for a King and Queen, A church of Christopher Wren’s. A million fighting men are here To keep this England free, No domineering German Fuehrer Can bomb and rule o’er thee. You shall arise, tho battle scarred, V ictorious. proud and free, And men shall hail your fallen dead, Where’er their dust shall be. —Betty Etches. THIRD PRIZE— THIS MODERN GENERATION When we hear Mother raving on About this generation, And all the silly things we do Which have no termination; She says we dress in sloppy clothes, In baggy shirts and sweaters. And scribble up our new trench c oals And sew on crazy letters. We have a language of our own. Of which there’s no denying, The older folk don’t understand Although they work hard trying. We dance to all the latest tunes. Mom says, “It’s just a racket”; It’s only ’cause she doesn’t rate High in our Hep-Cat’ bracket. When we have children of our own We will be just like Mother, And, scolding at their little pranks. Get nothing for the bother. —Muriei Newman. HONOURABLE MENTION Mary MacDonald, Lyle Warwick, May Price, Doreen Yeitch, Virginia Holden, Madeleine Hear. Grant Farrill, Violet Schmidt, Shirley Rutter. TO THE CONTESTANTS Your efforts all we do commend And these suggestions do append: Match metre, diction, picture, rhyme, And you will surely win next time! —The Judges, TO THE JUDGES AND CONTESTANTS To you we send our gratitude For labour, soifg or platitude; For verses sweet, or humour droll That help make up this year’s KENCOLL. —The Editors

Senior Basketball A senior team long lo be remembered will be this year ' s team, which in spite of continued losses of better players because of the war, managed to place third in a keenly contested league. Jack Kelly, Gus Rindl, Joe lannicello, fed Back, and Harold Parkes constituted the first team Other players included Harold Grice, Ken Jacobs, AI Barbesin. Ed Pillon. Charlie Kouvelas El so Schincariol and Lyle War¬ wick Incidentally Jack Kelly, captain of the team and Harold Parkes arc in the Navy now, The team wishes them the best of luck. Junior Basketball Mr, Beckett had at his disposal, ibis year, a group of hoys who for tiled a smooth working combination so make a line first team. These hoys were l abium Curry, captain, Bob Krol. scintillating high scorer Mike Yubas Jim llowic. and John Richards. The dose of the season found these hoys in third place: however, it is certain that next year with almost the same team hack, the championship will he in the offing. Other members of the team included: Murphy, Gal¬ braith, Voting. Kimitate, and Spurgeon. Mr, Beckett and Mr. Riggs are due no end of credit for the way in which they coached their teams and it goes without saying that the school as well as the teams thank them tor the fine work they did this year. Table-Tennis Jlds year after a long rest the old ping-pong tables, which Tommy Gordon made, were dusted off and a real championship tournament was held under the supervision of Mr. Wills. A chart was posted in the gym and the competitors played their games according to schedule. This made them personally responsible for getting their games p fayed. By the time for production of this magazine, 1 he par¬ ticipants were still contesting bitterly for the champion¬ ship. Swimming The school swimming meet was actually .something to see The hoys put oil a fine exhibition of racing and diving. Jack Kelly won the senior boys individual champion- ship with 15 points, John Coulter was right at lbs heels with 12 points. The junior hoys ' individual championship was taken bv Archie Galbraith who amassed lb points, A. Edwards was runner-up with 10 points, X 11 A took the school class championship with a total of 41 points, A duel meet was planned with Assumption College and the city meet was held on Friday, April lb. Badminton The Forum, this year, lias supplied the students with fifteen badminton ratjnets and judging from the turnout on Fridays after school, the game is one that is very popular although it is hoped that, next year, more hoys will interest themselves in this sport. The purpose of badminton is to give the student a game which he will be able to play when he leaves school. Most of the sports practised in the schools are highly organised team games which are played by a comparatively few number after graduation, therefore we are giving the student an opportunity to learn a game, that be will enjoy for many years to come.
