THE TOWERS 9 4 8—1949 PAGE TWELVE CADETS —By RALPH LAWTON, T3D-A INSPECTION — For the fourth year the W. D. Lowe Ca¬ det Corps, led by Cadet Lt. Col. Kenneth Fer¬ guson, has won the Cadet Inspection over fifty schools. However, the General Proficiency Trophy winner has not yet been announced. This will be decided in March on the year’s work. Our corps has 90.9 out of a possible 100 points. We are the first corps in M.D. No. 1 to win the inspection for four years consecutively. The cadets formed up at the school at six o’clock and marched to the Windsor stadium. A general salute was given to the inspecting officer. Brigadier H. A. Sparling, C.B.E., D.S.O. Cadet Lt. Col. Kenneth Ferguson then invited the party to inspect the ranks. The 22nd Recce Reg’t Band, with the permission of Lt. Col. D. C. O ' Brien, supplied the music during the inspection. When the inspection of the ranks had been completed, the cadets marched past in column of platoons, Brigadier H. A. Sparling, the inspecting officer, taking the salute. Then they advanced in Review Order”. After this the Colours were Marched Off”. When the ceremonial was completed, A” and E” Co ' y were put through Company and Rifle Drill. Meanwhile “B” and D” Co ' y were proceeding with Platoon Drill. After, the Signal Squad, under the com¬ mand of Cadet Capt. G. Tait, gave an excellent demonstration. All ranks were formed up for their P.T. exercises. Lt. J. Murray led the cadets through their exercises. The Gym Display caught the attention of everyone and special applause rained out for cadets Robert Bodnar and Alex Harris. Concluding the inspection a platoon in at¬ tack was backed up by a Honey Tank” at the north end of the stadium. The cadets in the assault were using Bren guns, rifles, 2” mortars, with parachute flares and coloured smoke screens. The Battalion was then drawn in and Mr. S. R. Ross introduced the g uest speakers. “You can be justly proud of your efforts here tonight , said Brig. H. A. Sparling, C.B.E., D.S.O., Western Area Commander. “I want to ask you a question”, he continued, “and that is what we, as Canadians, do to improve our coun¬ try? The one responsibility that falls upon you as citizens is to be prepared to defend your country. It can only be protected if you under¬ take training on what to do should the situa¬ tion arrive.” The F. H. Laing Trophy, for the company giving the best performance during the inspec¬ tion, was given to Cadet Major N. Sokach, com¬ manding officer of “A Company. Gold rings were given to Cadet Lt. Col. K. Ferguson, Cadet Capt. G. Tait, and Cadet Capt. D. Prodin. The $5.00 cash awards were given to: Ca¬ det Capt. Henry Garrick, Fourth Year; Cadet Capt. G. Tait, Third Year; Cadet Major L. Me- Cready, Second Year; Cadet Sergeant R. Wass, First Year. Cadet Melvin Rice, can be justly proud of himself for being the year ' s best private and also its best shooter. Congratulations, Cadet Rice! • RIFLE TEAM G. Ouellette I . House M. Rice J. Daxner RIFLE TEAM Our Rifle Team consisted of Melvin Rice, Philip House, Joseph Daxner and Gerald Ouel¬ lette. This was the team that went to the D.C.- R.A. Annual Matches at Ottawa in August. The boys were entered in the Small Bore Cadet Matches and in five of the Big Bore Competi¬ tions. In the Small Bore Cadet matches, Joe Dax¬ ner won the service conditions match, and was awarded a Silver Medal and a cash prize. In the team match, our team surrendered the Dominion championship to a team from Cal¬ gary, Alberta, by a slim two points. This was the finest experience for our team in firing the .303 rifle. However, in spite of the fact that they had practically no practice previous to the meet, Melvin Rice and Phil House made the prize list in two of the five matches and Joe Daxner placed once. Twenty-one D.C.R.A. Crests were given out and Melvin Rice received a special one with the highest aggregate score of 296 out of a pos¬ sible 300. i
