L. s. C. 1. ORACLE S5 l i i SENIOR BASKETBALL fLeft to rightj-Mr. Freeman, M. Shore, K. Coates, B. Hartrey, G. McVicar, R. McKay, B. Rivers. CGeo. Upshall, absentj ' ' Senior Basketball Last year, 1930-31, marked one of the most successful years in the basketball history of the South Collegiate. The senior team not only captured the city championship title for the first time in nine years, but also entered the semi- finals. This was made possible by the whole-hearted support given to them by the student body, combined with the excellent coaching received from Mr. Freeman. Theseniors played their first game at Tech. and were defeated by a small margin. Their next game was played in our own gym. and the South team was able to handle Central the small end of the score.

Central tried to gain the lead by giving the South team plenty of opposition, but the best they were able to do was to beat our team by one point. As in the series, points counted, South had now the undisputed City Championship team. St, Marys were the next victims. The South players administered a crushing defeat to the St. Marys quintet on our own Hoor, while at St. Marys our players were again victor- ious, winning with a score of 15-14. Guelph Collegiate proved to be the stumbling block, and what a block! They played clean, fast accurate bas- ketball with the result that the South team was defeated 68-28. We are not trying to create an alibi for that game but this defeat was partly due to the fact that the team had just lost Bump Upshall, whose absence was certainly missed. 1 Although the school has also lost two of its best guards, Shore and Mc- Vicar, who are now attending Western, we have plenty of new material and i
