Shawnigan Lake School Magazine and from the next scrum Hicks cut inside and passed to Sloan, who scored close in. Fleck converted. There was no further scoring before half-time. Play became very fast in the second half. The forwards were hav- ing a tremendous struggle, but neither line of three-quarters could make much headway against determined tackling. Following a free kick on the Shawnigan 25, one of the St. George ' s forwards came up very fast, and, gaining possession of the ball, slid over the line near the posts. The kick was successful, making the scores level at 5 points all. From then on Shawnigan gradually gained the upper hand. St. George ' s made one or two raids in our half, chiefly by means of well- placed kicks, but they never appeared likely to score again. The Shawnigan three-quarters, on the other hand, were always dangerous. Once Hicks seemed certain to score, but was brought down near the line. A series of scrums followed, which culminated in Oxholm inter- cepting a pass and dashing over for an unconverted try. Soon after, St. George ' s were penalized, and Fleck just failed to kick a goal from near the touch line. Both sides were beginning to tire, and it seemed that there would be no further scoring when, in the last minute, a good three-quarter movement sent the ball to Cooper, who slipped his man and, after drawing the wing, gave Hicks a clear run in. This was the best try of the match. Fleck kicked the goal and immediately the whistle went for full time. Shawnigan showed their best form of the season and deserved their victory. For, though there was little to choose between the packs, our three-quarters were always more dangerous than their opponents. The defence was splendid, the cen- tres in particular never allowing St. George ' s a chance to develop a movement or to give their wings an opening. Shawnigan team: Livingston; Hicks, Cooper, Newton, Hickey; Fleck ; McPherson ; Sloan, Milne, Beard, Hartnell, Derby, Oxholm, Ridewood, Hammond. 30
