THE COLLEGIATE Il3 to the deadline to make the score 3-0. ln the third Kennedy grabbed a loose ball and scurried over for a touch which was not converted. Play see-sawed back and forth in the last frame neither team count- ing. The game was handled by Baird of London and Lalonde of Toronto. S.C.I. and 15-Galt 15 November 5th The S.C.l. and T.S. squad was next ordered to meet Galt and on No- vember the 5th they made the trip there and succeeded in holding Galt to a 15-I5 tie. A 25 yard run by Kennedy and the silent plays of the locals which caught Galt napping featured the game. XYith eleven minutes to go Sarnia faced an eleven point deficit. but Hallam kicked eleven onsides in a row and Parsons and Manore went over for two touches. Reist and Patrick were the pick for Galt while Callum, Kennedy, Maitland, Millman and Carter were Sarnia's best. Sarnia started off strong, Parsons, going around the end for yards and Carter forced Reist to rouge. In the second Carter kicked and Shupe drop kicked for three points. The score stood 4-5 for Galt at half time. ln the third period Galt got a touch which was not converted. Shupe went over for a touch again at the beginning of the fourth and Sarnia sprung the surprise, when with only eleven minutes to go, Hallam kick- ed eleven onsides, nine of which were recovered. Parsons got the fifth and went over for a touch and with 30 seconds to go Manore grab- bed 'one which was converted by Carter just as the whistle blew. The largest crowd to witness a game this year at Galt was present. S.C.I. and T.S. 8-Galt 2 November llth In the return game at Sarnia on the eleventh. the S.C.l. and T.S. kept up their string of victories when they turned back the Galt Scotch- men by 8-2 and qualified to meet St. Thomas in the final round. The game was marked by constant fum- bling by both teams. Hurwell at end turned in a splendid game and Kennedy was the most spectacular man on the'field. He ran back a number of punts but was at times too much inclined to carry the ball himself. Ewener made two fine thirty yard runs and Kennedy fur- nished the thrill of the game when he took Reist's punt on his thirty yard line and went through for a touch down. Hallam who was hurt in the previous game, watched from the sidelines, but although he and lllillman were missing, Potter, Sou- thern and Hanwell of the seconds ably filled in. Galt opened strong. scoring two points in as many kicks to the dead- line Neither team scored in the second quarter, but in the third. Ewener plunged for thirty yards and Kennedy brought joy to the hearts of the S.C.l. and T.S. sup- porters when he took Reist's kick on Galt's 30 yard line and scored a touchdown but was forced to retire when his ankle gave out. Carter forced Galt to rouge and two min- utes later sent one to the deadline. The game was handled by Fickley of Hamilton and Cowan of Strat- ford. S.C.l. and T.S. 17-St. Thomas 6 November 21st Once again the old tradition held true when the S.C.I. and T.S. cham- pion seekers decisively defeated St. Thomas by 17-6 at Sarnia. In spite of the inclement weather a crowd estimated at 1500 attended. Car- terls booting was the big factor of the game while Ewener and Millman turned in fine games. Metcalfe and Green were the pick for the Saints. Kennedy was hurt in the first quar- ter and was carried off the field, Van Horne taking his place. Bus- ter Reid of London handled the game and was about as popular with everybody as the iceman on a cold day. He made two or three bad breaks and gave the Saints a touch

YanHorne kicked an onside which Brown got just over the line. Car- ter converted. Sarnia 8. St. Thomas o. lt was at the beginning of the second that the Saints got their touch handed to them. Plav was fairlv even during this period until YanHorne kicked an onside, Bur- well scoring a touch which was con- verted bv Carter. The third was good straight football. Carter scor- ed on' two kicks to the deadline. ln the fourth frame Brown was forced to rouge. the final score standing I7-6 for the S.C.l. and T.S. S.C.l. and T.S. l-St. Thomas 6 November 29th. The return game at St. Thomas was close throughout. Sarnia pre- sented a stubborn defence and play- ed an onside kicking game which started in a blinding snow storm and ended in semi-darkness. Carter's booting was good and Udell was the best for the Saints. Reid of Lon- don again handled the game and had a difficult job straightening out some of his blunders to the satis- faction of the teams. Neither team scored in the first period but in the second Udell made a touch after a 40 yard run by Bal- dwin . The touch was not convert- ed. Carter was forced to rouge in the fourth, making the score 6-o. Carter tried onside kicks which the Saints could not cope with and in the last minute kicked to Udell who was forced to rouge. The game was hard all the way through as the field was covered with snow and ice. Although the S.C.I. and T.S. lost here they retained their lead and thus won the XV.0.S.S.A. champion- ship. Owing to the lateness of the season it was decided that a sudden death game with Hamilton for the Interscholastic Champion- ship should be played in London on December 8th. 0. R. F. U. CONTEST S.C.I. and T.S. 2-Hamilton ll December 8th The supreme test for the team came when they met the Hamilton team in a sudden death game at Tecumseh Park, London, on De- cember Sth. At the beginning of the fourth Sarnia-was leading 2-I and, with Callum and Millman off for holding, Hamilton came from behind in the dying moments of the game to win one of the hardest fought battles ever waged iii an In- terscholastic series. Hamilton call- ed the signal for a fake kick which Sarnia was not looking for and Wfillard broke through for a touch. Hamilton added four more when the S.C.I. and T.S. tried too many onside kicks. In the first period Brown was forced to rouge. In the second Sarnia fans were given a bad scare when Hunter booted to Sarnia's one yard line. Carter kicked. Sarnia worked the ball up the field and Carter kicked to Hunter who was forced to rouge. He made a spec- tacular thirty yard run and forced the Hams to rouge again before the period ended. The last quarter proved disastrous to Sarnia's cause. Millman and Callum were penalized and Willard scored a touch for Hamilton. Hodd converted. The S.C.I. and T.S. tried onside kicks but Hamilton added four more points before the period ended. For the S.C.I. and T.S. Carter's kicking was fautless while his line gave him excellent support. Par- sons and Burwell were there every time and Millman was the most ef- fective man on the team, outside of Carter. Although the Collegians lost out in the final moments of the game, they came up smiling and de- spite the fact that they were plas- tered with mud they lined up and gave three cheers for Hamilton. Such spirit speaks well for S.C.I. and T.S. sportsmanship.
