Boys Cross Country This year’s cross country teams were very successful. In past years, Sheldon has domi¬ nated the sport and this year was no excep¬ tion with Sheldon winning all three divisions. Rod McLeod, Clint Uhrick and Eric Griffith each won their Divisional titles. Thanks to Coach Aston, Sheldon was again well represented in cross country and made this year a very good one.

The fifth game was won, thus forcing a tie with Scott for the second year in a row. Scott won the tie breaker 7-6. Dick Smith Gymnastics Club The Gym Club enjoyed a great increase in attendance this year as the girls came out for their first year in the group. Mem¬ bers made good use of the school equipment with particular interest in swinging rings and vaulting. Although everyone enjoyed the informal practices every Friday at noon, there is a possibility of a more organized program for next year with the advent of intercollegiate competitions. For this we would appreciate greater attendance by the senior students. A word of thanks goes to Mr. Cochrane for faithfully showing up for every practice.

Senior Boys Basketball Sheldon continued to have a successful basketball team this year. When the season started we were an untried and untested team. As the season progressed it became apparent that we were winners. We ended the year with a 17-1 record, then won the city championship in a best of three play-off against Miller. Sheldon won the B.R.l.T. in Saskatoon, came third in the L.l.T. and won the University tournament. Our greatest thrill was a dramatic 1-point victory which clinched the Provincial Championship for the second year in a row. Three players from this year’s starting team will be leaving this year. The players that take their place will give the team a new and exciting character. I advise “everybody” to get out and support the team!

► 11 ! ' Ip ■ ' Hi 4 1 Football 1969 Compared with their championship season in 1968, the Sheldon-Williams Spartans had a dismal year. They finished with a record of 3 wins and 7 losses. However, the Spartans were not so bad as their record indicates. They always played an exciting brand of football and were in all the games until the end of the season when they realized they were out of the playoff picture and let down. One thing that the Spartans improved on over last year was fan support. Sheldon has seldom been noted for team support but the football team drew quite a few fans out for its games despite adverse weather conditions for some of them. The football season came to a climax with the football dance in which Wayne Thomas was selected Mr. Football by his teammates.
