Shawnigan Lake School Magazine CHARACTERS G. W. Reed (Captain) — He captained the side very well, his placing and altering of the field for different batsmen was always well thought out. As a batsman he was of the very stiff and unorthodox type, but he got runs when they were needed. A very good field, though at times over-eager, which often caused him to fail to pick up the ball cleanly. D. A. C. Newton — Came on as a bowler, and has now started to realize that length comes before pace, which he varies very successfully. His batting shows promise but he is still very careless and in too great a hurry to get runs. Has fielded very well, much safer catch. D. A. Dawson — A solid bat, who can hit the ball really hard, he failed many times to get runs, because he wanted to score boundaries off every ball before he was set. A very sterling field, who will make an attempt to stop anything; uncertain catch. J. S. Humphreys — Did not really get a proper start and, as a result, both his batting and bowling were very patchy. Must try to be very alert and keen in the field. J. P. Torland — A very much improved wicket-keeper. He is now far less inclined to snatch at the ball and has done some very clever pieces of stumping. At present a one shot batsman, who must make an effort to develop his other natural strokes. A. R. Smith — Started bowling very well, but went off. He must be far more determined to try and bowl well, which he can do if he tries. His batting is very much of the axeman variety. Again he must make more effort to try and do what he is told. A good field. J. G. Niven — Did not come on as well as was expected; far too inclined to play the ball at the last moment. Must rid himself of his lackadaisical atti- tude both in batting and fielding. J. C. Whittle — Came into the side during the latter part of the season; he earned his place by keen fielding. His batting shows improvement, and he has the makings of a useful change bowler. J. F. Moore — A very useful hitter, who as yet has to learn to pick the right ball to hit. A good field in any position. V. G. Motherwell — Has the makings of a useful bat, but did not take it seriously enough; could have done better if he had tried. A useful but rather erratic change bowler. A very sound field. H. G. Niven — Shows some considerable promise as an opening batsman. At present his shots lack punch, mainly due to his small stature, but he should get more power when he gets the timing right. Must make an effort to im- prove his catching; however, his ground fielding has greatly improved. G. F. Mackie — Rather a disappointing fast bowler, who is still far too erratic. His batting is still very stiff; could hit the ball really hard if he would loosen himself up. A fair field, but poor catch. R. M. Day — Looks as though he should make runs, but failed to get them owing to his lack of ability to loosen up. A fair change bowler, much improved and energetic field. — 10 —
