BICBIASTER, Bronze Medal. The Junior Challenge cup was given by Mr, Philip Mackenzie, who was also kind enough to donate the two replicas and four medals, and his interest has encouraged the boys greatly. Mrs, Philip Mackenzie graciously presented the prizes at the conclusion of the Competitions. There were several good bouts, particularly between Piers II and Ross Hutchins, Bob Lundon and Piers l, H. Mackenzie and D. Livingston, and John Stewart and P. Little. ln the Junior Section, D. McMaster, James Stewart, MacTier, Holt, Grimaldi, Wickersham, H. Morgan, Dobell, R. Grier, and Ronalds all acquitted themselves credit- ably. If one had to single out any particular boy, it would undoubtedly be John Stewart, both for his knowledge of boxing, and the excellence of his style. SCOLTING NFWS Last Summer term the Scouts met regularly on the mountain where they practised scouting and played cricket. In May the troop attended the Local Association Spring Display at the Forum. A Guard of Honour, to welcome His Excellency the Governor General, was drawn up behind the head table. This comprised the Colour Guards of all the troops, our re- presentatives being P.L.'s Leslie, Russell and Porteous. Our chief contribution was a display of maze marching by the whole troop. This was conducted by the Troop Leader, who is a King's Scout. After having taken part in some songs with other troops around a Council Fire, we ended our activities by demonstrating two Proficiency Badges in the Badge Parade which was the grand finale of the evening. The Horseman's Badge was directed by P.L., J. Powell, King's Scout, with the aid of P.L's Bishop and Macnutt. The Entertainer's Badge was in charge of P.L. Kerr assisted by P.L. Lundon. On the same evening, several Scouts visited Ravenscrag and were presented to His Excellency the Governor General, Lord Bessborough. The winning patrol for 1930-31 in the Inter-Patrol Competitions for the Philip Mackenzie Challenge Cup was the Lion, led by P.L. John Powell. HI

There were thirty nine scouts at the beginning of the year in the troop which began with six Patrols f However, an inHux of recruits swelled our numbers to fifty-seven, and so we added two more patrols. The old Panther was renamed the Cougar Patrol, as the latter name sounded more Canadian. llyfllffl' Term. During the early part of the Term we paraded on the School Rink and finished up our meetings on the Mountain, where we played scout games and football. The new Tenderfeet were instructed for their tests. On Armistice Day the Troop assembled on the School Rink and observed the Silence in a simple but impressive ceremony. Mr. P. Mackenzie very kindly obtained the serviceS of a Bugler to sound the l.ast Post and the Reveille. The following Friday, Nov. 13th. the troop held a treasure hunt on the Mount- ain. This gave everyone an opportunity to display his Scout, or perhaps his lack or Scout, I.ore. The Hyenas Patrol distinguished itself by gathering in the greatest numbef of points. A crackling tire, hot bovril, and some solid victuals rounded ot? the day. For the greater part of November the troop met at Headquarters, and had to be split in halves, because of its size. All patrols now became enthusiastic over the Inter- Patrol Competition. By the end of the 1Yinter Term three Tenderfeet had passed their tests- while general First and second class instruction had been given to the Scouts. ln December, when the Annual Scout Toy repair shop was opened at Headquarters the troop once again met in a School Class Room. :Xt the same time our Scouts put in 160 hours work at Toy Repairing, thus gaining fourth place amongst all the troops of this city taking part in this useful work. The total number of toys repaired this Christmas was about 15,0011 161
