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.

In addition to that, Raymond Lauzon of C1C, won the Intermediate Championship with a total of 21 points. The boys are competing in the track meet at London next May and hope to bring back more than one champ¬ ionship to Tech. THE SENIOR GIRLS’ BASKETBALL TEAM With the return of six members of last year’s team, Tech had the nucleus of a good team this year. With the addition of new pupils from other schools. Tech has been able to put on the floor one of the best teams it has ever had. Out of five games played, three have been won and two lost. Should Tech win from Windsor in the last game, the two schools will be tied for first place in the district. The first game of the season was lost to Windsor by a score of 17—14 in the last minute and a half of play. It was the cleanest, fastest game yet played. For the first time, a Tech girls’ first team beat Walkerville’s first team by a score of 28—21. Tech also won two games from Sarnia 22—19, 22- 20, but lost the return game with Walkerville 26—21. Evervone is proud of the team, which, under the leadership of Hel¬ en Garfat, has been so successful this year.
