THE SOCCER TEAM The 1928-21) soccer team had a very successful season, losing only to last year’s WOSSA champions, the Walkerville High School. Owing to the fact that the Tech¬ nical School student body is an ever changing one, it is difficult to pick out and train a winning team. Un¬ der these circumstances the coach, Mr. Bennet, can be highly com¬ mended on his team’s success, and the players upon their excellent spirit. It would greatly simplify our coach’s task if those interested in this sport will come forward at the commencement of the 1929-30 school year and volunteer their ser¬ vices. The players of this year ' s team were: Goal. Hastie; backs. Johnson, McDonald; half-backs. P. Sinclair, Gardner, Stauth: forwards, Hall, Swan, G. Sinclair, Watters, Haugb. GEO.

40 The Windsor-Walkervi lie Technical School Year Book The Corps is to be commended ou its excellent appearance and steadiness when receiving Brig.- Gen. Armstrong, the inspecting of¬ ficer. accompanied by Lieut. Col. Gillespie, as well as the precision with which the various units per¬ formed their own particular parts. After the reception of the In¬ specting Officer, the various com¬ panies gave an exhibition of com¬ pany, platoon and section drill as well as physical training. On the completion of this part the Stret¬ cher Bearers, Signallers and Band showed that these activities had not been neglected, all performing in a very creditable manner, the Band particularly receiving many compliments on their playing. An interesting feature of the in¬ spection was the presentation by Col. Laing of his cup to A Company for general proficiency. This cup was donated to the corps several years ago by Col Laing for Inter¬ company competition. At the conclusion of the inspec¬ tion Gen. Armstrong addressed the Corps which mustered some 346 of all ranks, complimenting them on their appearance and steadiness.

THE TRACK TEAM Due to the loss of some of our star athletes, Julius and Leo Gold¬ man and Wilfred McArthur, our team was greatly handicapped this year. The members of this year’s track squad were for the most part new blood and as a consequence lacking in experience. McKechnie, H. Kelly, Art Dober- nardi, Fred Hamcs and Bill Beg¬ ley. It is hoped that when Coach Wood and his assistants issue the call for spike shoe artists, there will be a large turn out to gain a place on the thin clads for the spring meet at London. Our team won very few events since the experience of the other contestants from the various schools afforded them a great ad¬ vantage. The members of our team were: Tom Simpson (Junior Champion). Ray Lauzon, Alf Hoole, Ken Chris¬ tian, Frank Hull, Geo. Brown, O. Souillier, Norman Cushman, Ed. Lamoureux, Burnet Stauth, Joe N. CUSHMAN, T3A. pAj IsLoNq J np Is plxeyiNq
