In summarizing a year of uniform success in athletics it is but just to recognize that the institution is extremely fortunate in having secured the services of Mr. J. G. Eadie. As. a rugby coach, a basketball referee, and a baseball umpire he has given the greatest satisfaction. His exhaustive physical examinations should contri- bute directly and largely to the improved health and physique of the boys of the school. Witli the extensive campus promised by provision being made for a second collegiate building, there is in sight adequate athletic opportunity combined with Wise and sym- pathetic supervision, for every Regina Collegiate boy.
