REVIEW I W fl, Hull mlm.. . 1- , Y Onvnlle-RW' BOYS' BASKETBALL Late in the fall a number of the Students decided to try their skill at basketball and after a few practices decided to try outside aggrega- tions. An exhibition game was arranged with Orillia Collegiate but be- fore the end of the game the Midland Basketeers decided that they had undertaken an enormous task in trying to match their prowess with the Orillia boys and after an hours strenuous playing the game ended 33-20 in Orillia's favour. This defeat only caused the Midland boys to Vow vengeance' and they returned home wiser boys through their first exper- ience at basketball with outside teams. With the beginning of the New Year a meeting of the basketball fans was called and the following executive was elected : President-Melville Ralph. Vice-President-Lawrence Grise. Secretary-Treasul'er-Ernest Lowes. Manager-Mr. J. J. Robbins. A Coach-Mr. A. R. M. Gaviller. The executive decided to enter a Junior team in the Ontario Amateur Basketball Association along with Barrie and Orillia, and began immediate- ly to undergo strenuous practice under the coaching of Mr. Gaviller and Mr. Robbins. ORILLIA VS. MIDLAND On January the 25th, the Orillia O.A.B.A. team arrived in Midland to play the iirst scheduled game of boys' basketball ever played in the history of the M.H.S. The supporters had formed an opinion of their own, being rather doubtful as to the prowess of the M.H.S. boys at basketball, but before the end of the game their opinions were totally changed. The Midlanders led the scoring list from the beginning. MacLennan, Grise and Ralph on the forward line had the Orillia players dizzy trying to fol- low them. Fair, playing guard, was impregnable, and Lowes played a smart game at the basket for the home team. The score at the end of the first period was 34-7 for Midland. The second half was not quite so fast on Midland's part, as Orillia managed to run in a few more baskets which were followed each time by one for Midland. The score at the end of the game was 54-20 for the Old Gold, Blue and White. This large score on a team of basketball players like Orillia usually produces, encouraged our boys a great deal. MIDLAND VS. BARRIE On January 27th, the Midland Junior Basketball team journeyed to Barrie to give battle to the Barrie juniors. The game started sharp at 8 o'clock and in the first few minutes Barrie succeeded in running in three baskets while Midland only accounted for one. The -M.H.S. players seem- ed lost for a time but they soon found themselves and at the end of the
