96 THE COLLEGIATE BASKETBALL LEAGUE Despite the lack of a Boys' Ath- letic Association this year, Mr. Kee- ber and members of the boys' bas- ketball team got together early in March and promoted a basketball league for the boys in order to keep up an interest in that line of sport and also to hnd what material the school possessed for future years. The organization was very simple but effective. A list was secured containing the names of the boys who wanted to play. From this list the best six were chosen and six members of the teams drew for them. IYhen each was assigned to a team, the next best six were chos- en and this was repeated till each captain had a roster of eight play- ers. The six captains or coaches undertook the placing and instruct- ing of their players and in this way derived as much benefit as the play- ers themselves. Two leagues were soon seen to be necessary, owing to the number of boys, and a junior league was formed similarly to the senior. For coaches the teams in the junior lea- gue had the substitutes of the re- gular team. Each league was di- vided up into two parts and at the end of the season the winner of Part I played the winner of Part 2 for the championship. These games al- so served as a help to Hallam and Carter, of the first team, for these two acted as officials of the games and incidentally they missed very little rough stuff and their handling of the games was spoken of prais- ingly rather than insultingly as is usually the case among arbitrators. The team coached by Teskey won the hrst part of the Senior league and XYalsh's cohorts captured the second part. The playoff was wag- ed before a large crowd of students and XValsh's emerged victorious with a I4-8 count. The winners' team is composed of: McPhai1, cen- treg Ivinson and I-Iargrave, for- wardsg Patterson, Clark, guardsg Prendergast, sub. THE W.O.S.S.A. TRACK TEAM The sixth annual IYossa Track and Field Meet was held on Satur- day, May I6, IQ25, at the new cinder oval, at XYestern University. De- spite the dull day and drizzling rain, the meet was a huge success, and six records were broken. Sarnia sent three teams to the meet, but they did not succeed in winning any group or individual championships, though they made a very creditable showing for the school. The members of the teams were: Senior, L. Hallam, H. Carter, St. C. Parsons, E. Kennedy. Harold VanHorne and F. Burwellg Inter- mediate, 'Iames Armstrong, Kenneth Fraser, Elton Johnston, Charles Richards, Gordon Paterson. ,lun- iors: Kenneth Zink, Lyle McKay, Glen lXIcPhail, Tom Laurie. The Seniors were the most suc- cessful, coming second for the Group Championship with I6 points, while London South was first with 25 points. Ted Kennedy won his heat in the senior Ioo yards and came second in the final heat. In the Senior Shotput, Howard Carter won third place and in the High 'lump was second, Bud Parsons was third in the 440 yard race and Lloyd Hallam won first in the Sen- ior Broad Jump. In the Senior Re- lay race Sarnia was second. In the Intermediate Class Sarnia scored only three points, these being gain- ed by Elton Johnston who was sec- ond in the Shotput. In the Junior division Kenneth Zink won second place in the Shotput. Our team last year did very well, considering the fact that the campus was very muddy and that we have no indoor track, so that the athletes may begin training early in the
