SELWY Housia scuoot. -- MAGAZINE 1 VOL. 5 FOR THE SCHOOL YEAR 1931-lvii There are probably some boys who do not know why the School is so called. The name was given to the School by its first Headmaster, Mr. Lucas, who was a graduate of Selwyn College, Cambridge, ling., and Mr. Macaulay, who succeeded Mr. Lucas, was also at Selwyn when he was at Cambridge. The College is a more or less recent institution, having been founded in IH?-12 in memory of George Selwyn, first Bishop of New Zealand. lt was intended to serve men who wished to live according to the way of life which is followed in the Church of lingland, and was an attempt also to reduce the high cost of University education. lts first Master was Arthur Lyttelton. The College, whose alumni have gone out into all professions and all lands, is now growing in strength, numbers, and repute, and besides gaining many lfirst Class Honours in the Tripos examinations, holds a very high place with its boats on the river, in both the Lent and May races. This achievement would be a source of much satisfaction to George Selwyn, who rowed in the first historic Boat Race between Oxford and Cambridge in I829, when Oxford won by about llltl yards Let us hope that George Selwyn's virile example which has borne encouraging fruit both at home and abroad in the sons of the foundation which honours, and is honoured by, his name, will continue to be followed here in Montreal by our own School which is also privileged to bear his name. SCHOOL OTES It was a great pleasure to see Mr. Macaulay last summer, when he came over from England to visit old friends and to get in some fishing. Mr. XYanstall and he fished at Magpie, Quebec, but owing to heavy rain the fishing was not as good as usual. Mr. Ma- caulay killed .iust under twenty salmon. Two excellent essays were submitted last year for the Angus Murray prize, and it was almost impossible to separate Halbert Kerr, who is now at Ashbury, and Stephen Macnutt, now at Westmount High. Kerr chose as his subject The Situation in Ireland , and Macnutt wrote on the League of Nations. as S1 In the Junior Boys Golf Championship of the Province of Quebec, held over the Beaconsfield Course at Pointe Claire in August last, Ralph Smith, Jay Ronalds, and Billy Tirbutt were in the Winning Beaconsfield No. l team. Smith won the junior title. Leigh Ronalds, Cage 9, Form Cl, who stands 42 inches in height, went round in 125 strokes, giving him a nett 89. He was presented with a cleek as a reward for his meritorious per- formance. ' lll
