SFLWYN HOUSE SCHOOL NI.-XG.-XZIXF Owing to lack of time the tournament was run on the knock-out system this year. In the nrst round NIcCourt's team defeated Starnes's. lr was unfortunate for the latter that they were deprived of the services of their captain, through an injury, soon after the game started. Porteous's team won from Birks's by 2 goals to I, owing to the propensity of one of Birks's men to handle the ball within the Penalty area. S. IA man's team defeated Peck's in a closelv contested game bv one goal to nil. Iierr's team won from NIiller's by a similar score. The second round was productive of some very close games, there being three re- I1 lX Q Kerr's team defeated Porteous's. S. I.yman lost to McCourt after playing three drawn games. In the tinal round Kerr's YI defeated NIcCourt's by 2 goals to nil. HOCKEY l93I 'lewis as I-I land underl Gray Miller lfapt. I, Blake Miller, If. Nlcfourt, H. Peck, R. Smith, D. Russel, YY.

SFLWYN HOUSE SCHOOL Nl.-XG,-XZINF. XY. 'lilRliE I l' : R. Wing. Skates well and has a good shot, hut dreams and does not keep in the game sufhciently. J. Sn -mv : l.. Defence. l'ses his head and his hody to advantage. Needs to develop some speed. -I. Sriaw -yur : l.. Wing. .-X hard worker always. Needs plenty of skating practice. Though in the majority of cases we were on the small end of the score, all our match- es, with the exception of the l..C.C. l-l and under, were very closely contested. l..C.C. had a fast skating team which showed good comhinationg they were along way ahead of any other team which we played. The experience gained hy playing a team so much hetter than ourselves should he invaluahle next year. A weakness which was common to all our school teams was over anxiety and hasti- ness in front of goal with a consequent loss in accuracy. The H and under Team was also handicapped hy lack of speed Q everyone worked hard hoth in defence and attack g hut there was no one with the necessary speed to take advantage of any hreaks which came our way. The other two teams suffered from the lack of a reliahle goal-keeper. The forwards, with very few exceptions hack-checked well and the defence played consistently well so that our opponents very rarely got close in on the goal, far less often, in fact, than we got in on the opposing goals. Nearly all the goals scored on us were from long shots which should have been the goal-keeper's responsihility. I-I uso L'NDElil M.-Yl'CHl'iS Saturday, February the Tth. - :Xshhury College at Ottawa. Selwyn House undouhtedly had the hest of this gam:. Nlcfourt got through the heavy .-Xshhury defence time and again hy clever stick handling. He and Blake Miller were always, dangerous hut the cool goal-keeping of Graham Ferguson, and erratic shoot- ing rohhed them of innumerahle chances to score. .-Xshhury's one goal was the result of a shot hy Beauclerk from DLIST the half way line. ln the last ten minutes Selwyn House sent live men up the ice and kept :Xshhury penned hehind their own hlue line hut their erforts were in vain. Over anxiety and in- accurate passing spoiled all chances of evening the score. Saturday, lfchruary the l-lth. l..Ci.L'. at the Coliseum. l,ost -l - 0. Saturday, lfehruary the llst. St. .-Xlhan's at Brockville. I.ost 2 e U. The ice was soft and hadly cut up which made it very dithculty to control the puck and made skating hard work. 'l'he game was slow and uninteresting. Selwyn House tried hard for the First two periods and had quite as much of the play as their opponents. ln the last period St. .-Xlhan's did I'l1OSt of the attacking. Selwyn House played as hard as they could hut the heavy ice and ruggedness of the St. .-Xlharfs defence had taken toll of the small S, H. forwards, and St. .-Xlhan's were ahle to score twice. URI
