right into Johnson ' s lap. In the middle of the second round, during a free-swinging exchange, Berry went down from su haymaker but it is to his credit that he arose again as soon as he was able. However, all the fight had been knocked out of him and he finished off very tamely. Johnson ' s next fight was against Putnam in what proved to be the final. This was a very close fight and had to be decided on a fourth round. Both fighters tired badly in the final round but Johnson got in the more telling blows and received the verdict. HEAVYWEIGHT There were only two entries in this weight and, as Butt was not present when he was drawn to fight, Flint became the winner by default.

SQUASH The enthusiasm for squash in the School has never been so high as it has been during the past year. As many as forty boys have shown a keen interest in this sport. We had our first tournament in February and the two finalists, Thee and Patrick, were sent to Vancouver to play in the B. C. Open Squash Championships. They both won their first matches and were beaten in the second round. However, the trip was excellent experience for them as they came up against veteran players who were able to show them different styles of p-ay. In May, we had a junior tournament for all boys aged fourteen and under. The keenness shown in this tournament looks well for the future. In the finals, Bick defeated Lutener 15-8, 15-9, 10-15, 15-8. Also, during the Summer Term, we have had two Senior Tourna- ments, both of which were won by Thee. In the latter, the official School Tournament, Thee beat Patrick in the finals 15-8, 11-15, 15-8, 15-6. They have only been playing for two years and have a great deal to learn about position playing and placing. However, they are very enthusiastic, as are many other boys, and the standard of play is undoubtedly going to make gigantic strides during the next season. It is interesting to remember that Patrick beat Thee last year. Who will win next year — Patrick, Thee or — someone else? BASKETBALL Due to the unusually severe winter experienced at the School this year, the boys were confined to the Gymnasium for their athletic activities for the whole of January and February. This naturally led to the boom of Basketball in the School, consequently the standard throughout improved considerably. The only opponents that we en- gaged outside the School were the Village and one Saturday evening we journeyed to the S.L.A.A. Hall to engage our neighbours in a quadruple header. The School ' s under 14 and under 16 teams won their matches handily, but the Seniors were narrowly beaten 27-25 in a very interesting and close game. Finally, the Village Old Men trounced the School staff team by a disgustingly large margin. A league was formed in the School consisting of five teams and the local talent was as evenly distributed as possible with the result that there was some extremely keen and energetic Basketball played. It became almost impossible to predict a winner. Johnson ' s! team, the Cadavers , finally emerged as winners closely followed by Patrick ' s 28
