Bmcnlax. llfull backl. A late discovery, his unruflled calm had a steadying influence on the team and he should develop into a very reliable player. Mchlasraa. 1194-3f-ll. QRight halfl. Played brilliantly in a new position. He gave un- sparingly and his vigour and lighting spirit were quite invaluable to the team. GRAY. H9-l2f3--ll. Cfentre halfl. Captain. The best all-round player the school is likely to have for a long time. He excelled in every department of the game, and in addi- tion was a terribly hard worker who always played cleanly. .-Xrrkan. CLeft halfl. A player of ability who improved during the season but needed too much urging to produce his best. Always seemed a little out of condition. Homiias. fI.eft halfb. Always went all-out, and for his size played a remarkably good game. Used his head to advantage. Niaxvcomis. COutside rightj. A very promising player with a good turn of speed. VVas beginning to centre well. Should practise taking corners. Bovey. llnside rightl. A harcl worker who dribbled well and tackled back consistently. Later, as centre forward, he opened up the game skilfully. Captained the Under 13 team excellently. lg.-XR'l'H0l.UMEXV. lfentre forwardl.

SELWYN HUUSH SCHOOL MAGAZINE successful. lr was disappointing that the unusually early thaw prevented us finishing our schedule, and particularly that the eagerly awaited match with the B. C. Bantams had to be cancelled literally at the last moment owing to the sudden liquidation of the Coliseum ice. However, the fact that we were unbeaten in the six matches played, most of them against considerably heavier teams, was highly gratifying, and that we took only one penalty in all these games is conclusive evidence of the cleanness of our play. Gone, too, is the inferiority complex of some former S. H. S. teams 4 long may this state of alfairs continue l BIATCHES lfeb. Sth. LYNDER 14 v. L. C. C. at the Coliseum. K XVon 6--l. L. C. C. scored two quick goals but S. H. S. equalised before the end of the lst period on 2 goals by Gray. In the 2nd period Gray scored 3 goals to put us in the lead 5-3. In the final period each team scored once more, Gray, who played a great game throughout, getting his 6th goal. After a nervous start, Lindsay played a sound game in goal, and Pollard and Bartholomew showed good form. Feb. Trli. LlNlJER 15 v. L. C. C. at the Coliseum. - Drawn 3-3. This was a very exciting game against a considerably heavier team. S. H. S. twice came from behind to equalise the score, Gray once again being responsible for all our goals, his second being a particularly brilliant effort from the boards. hlagor played very well in goal, and in addition to Gray, who was the outstanding player on the ice, MCM:-lster and Bartholomew were particularly good. The whole team, however, played with lots of spirit and gave a line performance. Feb. llth. UNDER 12 v. L. C. C. on the S. H. S. Rink. 7 YYon 10-2. After leading 34 at half-time, S. H. S. had much the better of the final period and ran in 7 more goals against l for L. C. C. Scorers for the School were Newcomb CSD, Currie QD, Marler, Raymond and NYatson I each. Our lst line went particularly well with New- comb starring, and Seymour and Raymond were very sound on the defence. Feb. 19th. LTNDER 15 v. I.. C. C. at the Coliseum. - Won -P3. In the first two periods S. H. S. piled up a lead of -PO on goals by Gray KID and Pollard. In spite of this, play was very even, and in the Ind period particularlyhlagor was kept very busy. In the tinal period the L. C. C. weight began to tell and they scored three times to make a very exciting conclusion to the game. This was our first victory over the L. C. C. Under 15 team for a long time, and every player on our team is to be congratulated on pulling his full weight. Pollard was awarded his colours following the game. Feb. Ilst. LTNIJER l-L v. L. C.
