5 E By Lawrence WilcI f Mr. IV. J. lflleureux In the Fall of 1945, a man in a muddy trench coat. a battered hat, and wearing glasses, and was seen working out the football team. Yes, it was Mr. W. L'Heureux, who in live years at Tech has coached two-junior and three Senior Football teams to championships. He not only coaches Football, but Hockey and Basketball too, having assumed the coaching job for the Bantam Basketball Team for the first time this year. Coach L'Heureux may seem meek, mild and fragile, but if he can handle Wilmot Glenn, Craig Pratt and a few others of those huskies 3 then, maybe appear- ances are deceiving. Bill is respected as a gentleman, loved as a coach, and admired by all the boys at Tech. Dir. A. J. Smith . Mr. L'Heureux may be able to work wonders with his team, but ourjuniors have Coach Smith for their miracle man. Through Mr. Smith's efforts Tech Guertin, john Gorman, Ron Heatley, Jerry Henry, Bill Holmes, Mike Sauve, Rolly Lemieux, Eli McKhool, and Paul Watier. The play takes place from 12:00 to 1:00 at noon and from 4:00 to 5:30 after school. The club held a school championship tournament that was won by Phil Dufresne. Brian Slinn Coming to Tech three years ago Brian has proved himself to be an all round athlete. This year his speed and drive were definite assets in boosting our junior Football team to the top in the Interscholastic League. A runner up for a Rough Rider Trophy, Brian should be a real asset to our Senior squad next year. Tennis Under the supervision of Mr. M. Robbie, the annual school tennis tour- nament took place during the few rain- less days of last September and Octo- ber. From the keenly contested matches Badminton With Mr. A. J. Hammond as super- visor, the Badminton Club has played since last November. The members held a home and home tournament with the High School of Commerce and then they improved to the point where they played the Senior Club. The club also sponsored the school badminton tournament. From this tournament Howard Roche emerged as the singles champion while Phil Dufresne and Rolly Lemieux were victorious as the doubles pair. The club also entered eight boys in the Eastern Ontario championships. The very successful first year of this club speaks well for the future of Badmin- ton at Tech. Ski Team The Tech Ski Team of this year has kept up last year's excellent record. The captain of the team was Russ Wilson. Russ, along with Doug junior Basketball and Football teams Michael Sauve of HIT emer .E I Minnis, Bob Irving, and Mervin have continued to win championships. winner While Dennis Deusle . . .
