Absent—Bernard Swanson THE RIFLE TEAM One of the activities of our school about which there is no great pub¬ licity is shooting. Throughout the academic year instruction and prac¬ tice are given on the miniature range, within the school, to those boys who have obtained the con¬ sent of their parents. Several matches are fired and very creditable scores have been recorded both in this and former years. The chief event is the “King George 5 Cup” match which is fired on the Cove ranges in Lon¬ don in October each year. This match brings together teams from practically all the larger and many of the smaller schools in Western Ontario. This year seventeen teams were entered. The competition was very close, the winning team not being known until the last com¬ petitor had fired. The results of the day’s shoot for our school were ouite encouraging as the members of the team brought back two med¬ als as well as the team prizes. Bernard Swanson won the D.C. .R.A. bronze medal for sixth place in the individual aggregate out of 136 competitors, while Bert Bal¬ som won the gold medal for the highest score at 300 yards out of a like number of competitors. Han¬ dicapped as we are owing to the lack of an official outdoor range, this is considered an excellent showing.

SOCCER The Soccer team played a very good game this year, but were not strong enough to carry a victory over Windsor or Walkerville Coll- egiates. The players were light and could not penetrate the heavy line of the defence of their opposi tion. They played their best game with Windsor when they held that eleven down to a final score of 1-0 in Windsor ' s favor. The team at all times played fair and fought hard, and were always backed up by their coach, Mr. Bennett. BOYS’ BASEBALL Teck’s baseball team was a small, fast nine last year, and although they did not come out on top, they played a fast game. They won their first game with W.C.I. with a score of 4—3. They lost their next two to Assumption College and W.C.I. In their next game with Assump¬ tion, the y played an eleven inning but failed to defeat Assumption by 5—2. Langlois, the first baseman, received the glove given to the player who got to first base oft- • enest.
