9 School 1st and 2nd XI ' s met the Old Boys ' XI ' s and some excellent cricket was witnessed. The Old Boys won the 1st XI match by 56 runs, whilst the 2nd XI game ended in a draw. The Senior House matches provided some very interesting games, the shield being won by Watlington House. The Colts had some very promising players and won all three matches played against other schools, but lost to Mr. Gor- ton ' s XI. The Junior House Matches were again quite successful although Saltus House had by far the best side and won easily. The football season was also successful, the 1st XI. winning four games, drawing two and losing two. The team was fairly well balanced, the defence being sound and the attack was usually dangerous, but often guilty of individualism. The Colts again played very good football and won all six matches in the Junior League competition, scoring 29 and only conceding 3 goals. Consequently, they easily retained possession of the B.S.S.A. trophy. In the House competitions, Darrell House won both the senior and junior shields in the Christmas term. In the Easter term, Darrell House lost the senior shield to Watlington House, but re- tained possession of the junior shield. H. J. H. 1st XI Football Results (194243) Oct. 29, 1942, 1st XI v. S.G.S.

Previous to this, nine events had been completed, so as not to overtax the competi- tors with too many contests on Sports Day. The standard of performance in most events was good, and in five events new re- cords were established. In the senior House competition, Watlington House were easily the winners with 73 points, their nearest rival being Saltus House with only 28 points. The junior competition was closer, Darrell House bettering Butterfield House by 31 points to 23 points.
