CITY SOCCER SUPREMACY MAINTAINED DECISIVELY After finishing a close second to Isaac Newton in 1949, this year ' s Senior Soccer team outhustled and outplayed the other teams in the league to recapture the Senior champion¬ ship for the third time in four years. Coached by Allan Rouse, a man who is well versed in the intricacies of the game, and led by such stellar performers as Gordon Pankhurst, Ed Bergner, and Norm Lampe, the Tigers clearly proved that they were rightful champions by going through the 1950 season without tasting defeat. In their first encounter of the ' 50 campaign, the Tigers met a spirited Daniel MacIntyre team which displayed a good brand of ball, but who found themselves on the short end of a 2-1 score resulting from goals scored by Ron Heindl and Ed Bergner. The Johnians gained a shutout from Newton with a score of 2-0 in their second game of the season. Heindl and Lampe with a goal apiece led the Tiger attack. Continuing their winning ways, the Tigers humbled Gordon Bell on goals scored by Bergner and Lampe. In the fourth end last encounter of the year, the Tigers met up with a Gordon Bell team which fought hard and played well, only to lose out to a more ski I lei and spirited opponent 1-0 on Bergner ' s goal. A great deal of credit for molding the chompionship team must go to Allan Rouse, who gave time and effort in his bid for a champion. Bouquets to Mr. Laycup who left the scienc 1 room long enough to see that Tech had a winner. Orchids to Mr. Reeve and Mr. Ridd who braved the cold weather to chee- their team on to victory. Other players on the squad who may not have gotten an goals but whose efforts and soccer skill made a great differenc in the eventual outcome, were Dave Pearlman, Stan Drozdo Bernie Glowienko, Bill Hutton, Ward McCann, Jerry Footlick Morris Kagan, Frank Kedlarchuk, Syd Bercovitch, Ed Mamerick and Norm Gussin. gj S ' §?

JUNIOR SOCCER CHAMPS The St. John ' s Juniors won the Junior Soccer championship with only three ties marring their record. With Al Rouse handling the reins, the Juniors boasted victories against Kelvin, Daniel (2), and Gordon Bell. They tied Newton, Lord Selkirk, and the Macmen. The powerful Johnian eleven found a mud- soaked field to their disadvantage, but had to settle for a 5-5 tie with the Norsmen from Newton. The Tigers blew a five- goal lead in the second half. Goalgetters in the fray were, Sloane, Fabro, Sassley, Hares, and Hershfield. Meeting a woefully weak Gordon Bell team, the Tigers won their first game by a 6-0 score. Earl Hershfield pulled the hat trick by scoring three goals, while Masters, Sassley and Sloane garnered singletons. The Techmen ran up against tough opposition in Kelvin, and had to be satisfied with a 2-1 win. Earl Hershfield ran his goal production to 5 by scoring one of the Tiger goals and little Pete Sassley rammed home the other Tech marker. The huge Maroons from Daniel came to Tech and found their smaller opponents a fighting team. The Maroons went home licking their wounds after a 3-0 trouncing. Sloane scored his third and fourth goals of the season, and Sassley scored his fourth goal of the year for the Tigers. The men from Salter Street found tough opposition in a rough and ready Lord Selkirk crew. When the dust had cleared from the 2x4 field in East Kildonan the score was 1-1. Al Lorrimer scored the only Tiger goal, but it was an important one. St. John ' s met Daniel Mac for the championship of ' Peg. Gary Hares and Pete Sassley scored the Tech counters, in a game that was called on account of darkness. Another contest was necessary to determine the championship. With Bob Sloane and Earl Hershfield scoring, the Tigers won the game 2-1. Members of the winning eleven were: Al Johnson, Billy straick, Al Lorrimer, Billy Freeman, Earl Hershfield, Barry Masters, Pete Sassley, Gary Hares, Otto Duy, Bob Elmer Linney, Bob Sloane, Dick Fabro, and Rudy Laminger. CLOBERMANTROTTERS SCHOOL JUNIOR HOOP CHAMPS The Room 30 Globermantrotters took over the school junior basketball championship for ' 50- ' 51. The undefeated cagers from 39 became champs by virtue of a hair-raising 20-19 victory over Room 15, the Level I champs. The game was closely fought at all times. Ron Meyer ' s foul shot at the last moment spelled doom for the unfortunate 15 ' s. However the terrific ball playing of Frank Lester and the fine defensive work of Moe Meyers kept the Level I ' s spirit up all the way, while the combination of the Conner twins was a sore thumb as far as the Room 1 5 boys were concerned. High scorer in the hard fought encounter was Ben Hewak of 15 who garnered eight points. Morley and Neil Conner patted seven and six respectively for the new champions. standing: Ron Gillman, Izzie Cooper, Abe Globerman was a 9reat year for Junior basketball, and an even (Coach), Sid Halperin, Taras Bryk. greater one for Coach Abe Globerman and his undefeated Kneeling: Neil Conner, Ron Meyers, Morley Conner.
