St. Aldan ' s — Lytton, Grievson ii, Mears, Vance, Grievson i, Ackroyd, Stewart ii, Ryves, Stewart i, Peters, Thomson. School (3rd XI.) vs. St. Michael ' s This was the first match of our great day, December 12, when we took three teams to Victoria and won every game. Our Juniors showed distinctly better team work than their opponents and succeeded in winning, 7-0. There were moments when the ball rolled gently across St. Michael ' s goal mouth and nobody seemed able to put it through, but in spite of this Lake ii played a hard game at centre-half, while Walkem i, Deming and Cooke all scored goals — the seventh was everybody ' s effort. School — Mannell; Playfair, Hilton; Barker, Lake ii, Brad- ford ii; Rochfort ii, Walkem i, Garrard, Cooke, Deming. Cup Team vs. St. Michael ' s The only unfortunate thing about this match was that it was played at the same time as, and on the adjoining ground to the third eleven game mentioned above, thus causing partial dislocation of the neck and acute mental suffering to the spec- tators, especially to those parents ' 1 r«o had boys playing in both games. The ground was very slippery and muddy, but Shawni- gan got away to a good start, Loggin scoring our first goal with a fine shot from the left wing. The remaining two goals were scored by Gillatt and Best ii, thus bringing the score to 3-0. Larsen l and Merritt both played well at full-back, while for St. Michael ' s Redpath was the only one with real life; he did not, however, receive enough support. School — Rochfort i; Larsen i, Merritt; Barclay i, Haddon, Bazett; Slater, Gillatt, Best ii, Taylor, Loggin. Page Nine

Shawnigan Lake School Magazine beaten, however, did not depend on this entirely, being mainly due to the fact that they had learned the elements of combina- tion. Our third eleven, or under 12 team, showed great promise. The matches which we were able to arrange for them were well worth watching, if only for the unbounded keenness shown, and while this enthusiasm must be controlled, they should un- doubtedly form a useful nucleus for 1926.

In spite of the score the game was a good one, as St. Aidan ' s forwards were always dangerous and should have scored more freely. Their defence, on the other hand, was weak. For Shawnigan, Gillatt and Haddon both played well, the former scoring five goals and the latter three. Barclay i played a hard game at right-half and marked his man well, while Rochfort i was very sound in goal. Page Eight

Shawnigan Lake School Magazine School vs. Cranleigh House Played in Victoria on December 12, 1925. The first eleven match in the afternoon was the best game of the day. the score being 3-1 in our favour. In addition to the ground being very slippery, there was a strong wind blowing, against which we played in the first half. However, we held them to no score until half time. With the change of ends, the school got away at once and Bastin scored with a good low shot in the corner of the goal. Cotton scored shortly after, and again later on from a fine dribble-up and pass by Groves. For the school, Rochfort i played extremely well in goal. His judgment in running out was good and in the one goal scored against him he did not have a chance. Groves was always good, as was Best i, in fact it would be hard to pick out any one player, the whole team combining so well together. School — Rochfort i; Ferguson, Best i; Parr, Groves, Rip- ley, Wallbridge, Draeseke, Cotton i, Bastin, Lacon.
