REGINA COLLEGIATE INSTITUTE SUUVENIR 43 The Cadet Early in September, 1912, the boys met in the Collegiate Auditorium to reorganise the Collegiate Cadet Corps. They decided to organise two companies, A Company to consist of those boys who had attended the Collegiate at least one year, while B Company, with the exception of the officers, was formed from the new boys. The following were the officers for the year: A Company. Captain ...,........ . ............ Fred. Martin Lieutenants ..,.,.. Sr. Subaltern, G. Porterg Jr. Subaltern, J. Murray. Sergeants .... ...J. Balfour Ccolour sergeantl, B. Ramsay, G. Wells, A. Brown. B Company. Captain ..... ................ W . Hastings Lieutenants ....,.. Sr. Subaltern, H. Longworthyg Jr. Subaltern, D. MacLean. Sergeants ..,. . . .C. Tanner I colour sergeantl, H. Stewart, B. Turriff, VV. Longworthy. The Cadet Band consisted of: Buglers ...... ..... B . Wells, W. Bee and E. Mason. Drummers. ....... H. Mason, E. Lauder, and B. Parker. Corps The events in which the Cadets participated were varied and interesting. On October 12 the boys formed the Guard of Honor at the reception tendered the Duke of Connaught by the various schools of the city. At the Annual At Home in December the Cadets gave three of the most pleasing numbers of the programme. The first and second of these, namely Physical Drill and Rifle Drill were good illustrations of the general character of the work carried on throughout the year, and the third number given by the awkward squad, while humorous, showed the difliculties met with in training recruits. The spring work opened with a paper chase and was won by Beattie Ramsay of A Company. This was followed a few weeks later by a baseball match in which B Companyn evened up with a win. The annual review took place on May 26th when Lt. Col. Hosmer inspected the two companies, each of which lined up sixty strong. Our best wish for the corps is that, as from year to year new boys come into the Collegiate, they will show the same interest as has been shown by every boy in the school during the past year.

' 1 I' 1 ' fi l at 55-ig ' ' ra I 55 Annual Field Day The Seventh Field Day Sports were held at the Exhibition Grounds on Friday, October 4th, Rain marred the day's programme, and some of the events were run off on the following Mondayf. This annual event has for several years been one of the chief features of the school athletics, and this year proved to be the most successful Field Day yet held. The relay team, consisting of C. Tanner, B. Ramsay, H. Longworthy and W. Hastings. showed their superiority over their old-time rivals, the Normal School, Winning out in a closely contested race. In the Senior events WValter Hastings captured the honours for the second successive year, winning six Iirsts and three seconds. Harold Longworthy was a good second with four firsts and four seconds. IVard Longworthy was successful in taking the Intermediate championship. 'gTeddie Iiauders and Clarence Tanner made the champion extend himself to win his laurels. All the Intermediate events were closely contested. '4Bing', lNIerrill captured the honours with case in the Junior class, taking first place in every event. The girls took a. larger part this year in the sports than they did on any previous year. In the relay races I B won from I A, I C and I D3 II B took the honours from II A, while the middle forms defeated the senior form. Good time was made in the different hundred yard events, while Sadie lXIcKee and Belle Hobkirk carried off the honours in throwing the base- ball and basketball. The potato race afforded excellent fun but appeared to be a little strenuous for some of the girls. Our friends down town again donated freely, and we wish to again thank them for the interest they take in the Annual Field Day Event. KI. NI.u'F.x1zLANE. Il. IAJNGXVURTIIY.
