SCHOOL NOTES The enrolment at the close of the school year stood at 137 boarders and 96 day boys. This year shows an increase in the demand for space in Grades IX and above, which our present facilities cannot meet, and a decrease in the Lower School. The former situation can be met only by the building of the Science-Classroom Block, and it is hoped that, when the present difficulties have been overcome ffor example, U.S. income taxj, the essential funds will be forthcoming, With the exception of the Music Master, Mr. O'Kane, who left for New Zealand, Mr. Robinson, who spent only two terms here, and Dr. Bronner, who has retired on the orders of his doctor for reasons of health, we welcome back all the faculty, and at the same time extend a warm welcome to the new members - Mr. Derek Inglis, B.Sc. fSt. Andrewsj, Mr, John Powell, M.A. CCantabl, and the Rev, Charles Blencoe, B.A. fLondonj, late R.A.F., who has come to be our School Chaplain. During the year Mr. Graham Leslie, B.A. fOxonj, took Mr. Robinson's place to help us out while awaiting his appointment in another career. We were all very sorry that this was a temporary expedient, since, through his enthusiasm and practical interest, he be- came very much a part of the school even in that short space of time. 7 During the year the school has been honoured by some notable visitors and speakers, of whom some have addressed the whole school on subjects of general interest, such as the United Nations Organiza- tion, while others have talked to senior groups principally on careers. We are extremely obliged to these gentlemen for their kindness and hope that they will visit us again in the not-too-distant future. They have included Mr. David Brower of Vancouver, Prof. Burchill of Royal Roads, Dr. Brock Chisholm, Prof. Emery of Victoria College, Mr. Hawkshaw of the Canadian Bank of Commerce, Dr. Hugh Keen- leyside, Lt.-Commander Lawther, Mr. Rivett-Carnac, the former Commissioner of the R.C.M.P., Dr. Spicer and Sir Charles Wright, who journeyed with Scott on that tragic expedition to the South Pole so many years ago. The principal happenings of the school year are given in more detail elsewhere in this magazine, but in summary they may be listed as under: 1. The day-long visit by the Lieutenant-Governor of British Colum- bia and Mrs. Pearkes. 2. The start on the School Chapel. 3. The revival of the Scout Camp by Mr, Mugridge and the be- ginnings of the Scout Hut. Incidentally, congratulations to Cree II and Hunter I, respectively, on representing the School Troop and a Victoria Troop at the big Jamboree in the East, 4. The continued success of the Old Boys in the academic field. 5. The extension of the school grounds through the acquisition of adjoining properties. 6. The tremendous groundwork which has been done by Mr. Hugh Stephen and Mr. Ken Scace in the launching of the big Science- Classroom Block drive. 7. The work of the Librarians, under Mr. Caleb, resulting at long last in the school's having a proper library, which, if supported in the future as generously as it has been by parents and friends in this past year, will become outstanding. 8. The general improvement in the appearance of the out-buildings and the enhancement by the tubs of flowers, with which the Gardening Club has given us so much pleasure. 9. The increase in the level of achievement of the Debating Society. 10. The growth in popularity of basketball and skin-diving, and the tremendous success of the School dance organized by the XX Club. 11. The successful participation in the annual Religious Conference at the Annie Wright Seminary at Tacoma. 12. The Incogs' triumph, for the second year in succession, in the League Championship. 13. The decision to run our own 'Tuckshop', under a committee of masters and boys, which has already brought considerable profits to the Chapel Fund. 8 14. The success of the contingent at the Vernon Cadet Trades Train- ing Camp, and particularly of Cadet-Sgt. King, who was awarded the Trophy for the most outstanding Cadet in the whole camp. There were, altogether, more than 1,100 cadets from Saskatche- wan, Manitoba, Alberta and B.C. at this camp, and King's achievement in gaining this award has brought distinction to the Corps and the School. 15. The 'Wedge' 16. The many expeditions undertaken by parties of boys and masters throughout the year, and especially the European Tour, organ- ized by Mr. Caleb and Mr. Prowse. 17. The discovery, by the party on the European Tour, of the cita- tion to Capt. Harvey in the book of the Canadian Expeditionary Force in St. George's Church, Ypres, and the arrangement that they made for a wreath to be laid on behalf of the school on his grave at Niederswehrh. Many will regret to learn of the passing of Founders and Brent- wood Houses, and their replacement by Bamacle and Bolton respec- tively. In case there should be some who do not understand the circumstances relating to the change, these are, very briefly, as follows: In 1948 Brentwood College experienced financial difficulties and, being unable to continue alone, became part of University School, forming the nucleus of Brentwood House. At the same time Founders House came into being, and later Harvey House was re-opened. From that time on the School functioned under the House system-the same privileges being accorded the sons of Old Boys of both schools, and the Rolls of Honour being called on Remembrance Day in the Hall which the joint efforts of their friends and alumni had built. However, in 1960-61, a group of Old Brentonians formed a new association to start a new Brentwood College at Mill Bay, using the colours, crests, etc., of the old College. Since this would inevitably lead to confusion and misunderstanding, it was decided to re-name the Houses after the Founders of this school- so that we now have Barnacle, Bolton and Harvey--and no names more fitting could possibly be found. TREASURE TROVE We are most grateful to Mrs. Ralph Mathews for presenting to the School a number of souvenirs of her husband's athletic prowess when he was a boy here, and also a number of books for the Library, among which is a complete set of 'Black 8a Red' magazines beautifully bound in leather and numbered Vol. 1 to Vol. 10. It is improbable that more than a few such sets are in existence, and the only set which the School owned had, for safety reasons, to be kept under lock and key and brought out only on special occasions. Now, through Mrs. Mathew's kindness, a set is available in the Library for any and all to read at leisure. 9 It is with deep regret that we record the death of Mr. W. C. Ditmars of Vancouver, long a Governor of this School. It is some six years since Mr. Ditmars visited the school, but as he was then past 90 it is perhaps not surprising that his doctor had prevented him from re- peating that visit. Nevertheless his interest remained, and in his Will he has bequeathed a legacy for the foundation of a Scholarship in memory of his son - an Old Boy, Lt.-Commander E. S. Ditmars, who was killed in action in World War II. H.M. THE XX CLUB J. Tassin, P. Clark, R. Webb, I. Dykes, G. Stene, W. Monkman, B. Blair, R. Mayhew, W. Woollends, R. Pilling. J. Palmer, G.

The Lieutenant-Governor greeted on arrival by the Chairman of the Board of Governors, Mrs. Timmis and The Headmaster. SPEECH DAY Speech Day was notable in that for the first time in the School's history the principal Speaker and Guest of Honour was the Lieutenant- Govemor of British Columbia, and for the first time also the events took place out of doors. Both innovations were undoubtedly successful and, while we shall continue to practise the latter C praying always for fine weatherlj, we hope that the former has but set the pattern of events to come. It was a brilliant day in every way, and the welcome given to the Lieutenant-Governor was that to an old friend since, as Federal Member and, later, Minister of Defense, he had been a frequent visitor to the School in the past - an honour which we hope he may be able to repeat still more often in the future. In his address the Lieutenant-Governor stressed two main points. First, the need for independent thought and the will-power to stick to a decision once it has been made. Second, the need for leadership in this country and the opportunities which boys at this School have to develop these qualities. He illustrated his points with apposite anecdotes and, if the close attention of his audience was any criterion, there is no doubt that these points were driven home. At the conclusion of the Prize Giving, guests and boys adjourned for lunch in Brown Hall-before which a very pleasing ceremony took place. As is well known we have waited a long time for a portrait of Mrs. R. A. Brown of Calgary, the Donor of Brown Hall, and for- tunately it arrived in time to be unveiled by the Lieutenant-Governor. This was done amidst considerable applause, and the simple ceremony in itself added much to the enjoyment of the day. The afternoon was devoted to the Senior Sports, at which we had the pleasure of Mrs. Pearkes' company also. A full account of the events is given elsewhere, but we must say here that we were more than delighted that Mrs. Pearkes, with her customary graciousness, was able to distribute the prizes to the winners. Incidentally, Mrs. Pearkes has a very close link with the School in that her brother, Mr. U. Copeman, is an Old Boy of the 1910 era. H.M. 13 Reading ..... Writing ......... Arithmetic ........

B. Cree, T. J. Rigos CONFIRMATION On 22nd. March, 1961, two boys, Keith Douglas Bradley Hook and James Ridgway-NVilson, were confirmed in St. Paul's Naval and Garrison Church by the Archbishop of British Columbia, the Most Reverend H. E. Sexton, D.D. The Candidates had been prepared by the Rev. A. Roberts, Rector of St. Paul's and Acting Chaplain of the School. THE CHAPEL Most of us must feel that a School without a Chapel is as a Ship without a Rudder, many of us now know that a devoted Cand, here, anonymousj body of Masters and Boys is well on the way to recti- fying this condition where University School is concerned, The south walls now stand K most impressive do they lookl, and, in all, 310,000 have already reached the Treasurer QMr. I. Mugridge, at the Schoolj-the welcome gift of many responsive contributors canvassed by the whole student body. The effort has been so com- mendable that any praise would appear fulsome, but we must pay tribute to the expert professional assistance of Messrs. Tom McEwan and E. Logan, which has kept operations in the straight and narrow way, and we have a private predilection for those Day Boys who stripped and toiled incessantly in the heat of the Summer. The work is voluntary fit is impossible, for instance, to gain '6credit for deten- tion thereby, nor has this been requestedj, but the new School Year has already seen labourers from many forms swarming over the site. Insuperable obstacles have been surmounted, but the absolutely impossible always takes a little longer, and we would remind Readers that only as further contributions continue to arrive will the building continue to rise, and the School continue the sooner to flourish in the shadow not only of the Flag but the Cross.

XV enjoyed a full season, no less than 19 matches being played, ten of which were won, seven lost and two drawn, The side was well led by Rigos, assisted by Dykes as Vice-Captain, but only three other members of last year's team were available. For- ward the side was heavy but too slow, while behind the scrum Dykes, at outside half, held things together. As the season wore on there was steady improvement and after Christmas, as usual, the team went from strength to strength. They were unlucky to be beaten 5-3 by St. George's, and in the Shawnigan game rose to great heights to score a try to their opponents' penalty goal, having rather the better of a drawn game. Their weakness lay in their tackling and falling. They paid dearly for these deficiencies in defence. T. Rigos, I. M. Dykes, B. M. Huston, D. I. Chapman, R. B. H. Cree, B. Phillips and B. A. Blair were awarded their colours, and the full side was as follows: T. Rigos CCapt.l, I. M. Dykes CVice- Capt.j, B. M. Huston, B. Phillips, D. I. Chapman, B. A. Blair, G. D. Stene, B. Tassin, D. A. Angus, R. B. H. Cree, E. H. Dodyk, G. G. Murdoch, M. Palmer, D. O. Windrem and E. Mousel. The 2nd, XV were keen and quite a useful side, enthusiastically led by Monkman. They had a good season, dividing games with both St. George's and Shawnigan. Their best effort was the victory over St. George's in Vancouver late in the season. Regular matches were also arranged for the 3rd. XV, captained by Wilkinson, and the 4th., led by Watson. In both teams there was use- ful material, Wilkinson, Dobell and Mackid being particularly pro- mising. The 5th. XV also played a match or two. In this group Hunt was outstanding, both on the field and in his willingness to assist in matters administrative. W.R.G.W. FIRST FIFTEEN MATCHES SCHOOL v. ROYAL ROADS 2nd, XV In the opening game the School gave a display which was not with- out promise, though the opposition was inexperienced. The School won by three goals and five tries Q30 pointsj to a try Qthree pointsl. Both Phillips and Dykes scored in the first half and Stene twice converted from dead in front, Stene scored soon after half time and tries were added by Tassin ftwoj and Dykes, Phillips and Chapman fone eachj, Stene converted once and the School won 30-3. Dykes was the outstanding player, passing with judgment and using his dummy with effect. Chapman and Phillips ran hard on the wings, while Tassin had a good day in the centre. The forwards outplayed the opposition but were slow to heel from the loose and failed to bind. 20 RUGBY 2nd. XV G. Simonson, J. Cole, R. Brannon, H. Sweeting, A. Keble, P. Clark, G. Taylor. J.

VICTORIA HIGH SCHOOL Playing at home the School defeated Victoria High School by four goals and two tries C24 pointsj to two goals and a penalty goal Q13 pointsj. The High School were strong forward and a much more even game than the score indicates resulted. They opened the scoring early, when some good play in the loose and some hesitant School defence gave them a try under the posts, which was converted. Windrem opened the School account when he picked up a loose ball near the line and dived over. Stene failed to convert but was more successful with Rigos' try, which was scored when the scrum pushed over. just before half time the High School drew level when Stene was offside and the penalty was kicked. The School went ahead after half time with tries by Phillips, Mousel and Dykes. Of these Mousel's was a very good one coming after a fine opening by Dykes and a timely pass by Tassin, Stene goaled two of the three tries. The High School came back strongly and were rewarded when some shocking defensive play, with Huston especially guilty, gave away a try near the posts. Goal was kicked. Windrem completed the scoring with his second try of the game and Tassin converted with the last kick of the match. SCHOOL v. OLD BOYS The School were successful against the Old Boys, two from Van- couver, one from Tacoma and the remainder from Victoria, by four goals and a try C23 pointsj to a goal, a penalty goal and two tries C14 pointsj. The game was of fair calibre in view of the inexperience of the School side and the normal lack of condition common to Old Boys teams. Dykes, Chapman and Phillips scored tries for the School in the first half and Abel converted on two occasions. Chris', Pollard replied for the Old Boys with a try, but the School had enjoyed a wide advantage. After half time Stene scored for the School for Tassin to convert, and the scrum pushed over another try, for which Angus II received the credit. This was converted by Abel. For the Old Boys Calton and Beban scored tries, one of which was converted by Lund, who was also successful with a penalty goal. SCHOOL v. A VICTORIA COLLEGE XV The College brought a reinforced 2nd. XV and the sides played in pouring rain to a 3-3 draw. A more difficult ball to hold could not have been found and passing was seldom attempted by either side. The College did score a three- quarter try late in the first half, and they appeared to be winning when, late in the game, from a line-out near the College line, a visiting forward was foolish enough to knock the ball back to his half, Angus II and Windrem were through in a flash, the former winning the race for the welcome gift to give the School a draw. 22 RUGBY 4th.

GEORGE'S SCHOOL The School were defeated in Vancouver, scoring a goal ffive pointsl to their opponents' two goals and two tries C16 pointsl. From the opening whistle play was very even, the lighter School pack holding their own well. The backs also looked dangerous on occasion, with Chapman impressive on the wing. After both sides had had their chances the School finally opened the scoring and, as usual, Dykes paved the way. From a scrum on the St. George's twenty-five he took a pass from Huston in his stride, sold a brilliant dummy and went straight through the middle. He was brought down on the goal line and from the scrum which followed Huston threw himself over between the posts, for Abel to goal. Shortly before half time St. George's scored, and the scores were level when goal was kicked. Dykes, who had been injured, retired at half time and took no further part in the game. Stene was taken from the pack to fill in at outside half, but this resulted in weakening the forwards and from then on St. George's were on top. The School struggled rnanfully but were forced to concede a goal and two tries. As a team St. George's were better together and were likely winners, but with only fourteen men after half time and without the services of their outstanding performer the School had really given a good account of themselves. 23 SCHOOL v. OAK BAY HIGH SCHOOL A very even game saw the School successful against Oak Bay High School by a goal and two tries Q11 pointsl to a try Qthree pointsj, The visitors were keen and robust in the loose and some good play in this department saw them open the scoring with an unconverted try. The School soon drew level when Chapman crossed at the flag. This try was not converted and the teams changed over all square. The School improved after the restart and Stene put them ahead when the ball was slipped back to him by Sweeting and he threw himself over. Abel goaled with a fine kick. just before the end Phillips completed the scoring when he crossed at the flag to finish a three- quarter movement. The School, playing without Dykes, had the better of the argument, but the forwards were not impressive. SCHOOL v. H.M.C.S. VENTURE 2nd, XV Playing at H.M.C.S. Naden the School threw the game away by poor tackling, and lost late in the play by a goal and three tries Q14- pointsl to a goal, a dropped goal, a penalty goal and two tries Q17 pointsj. The School opened well and were soon successful when Chapman took Blair's pass to score a try, which Abel improved. Venture replied with a try and then with a penalty goal. Dodyk added a try for the School just before half time but chances were not taken and they should have been further ahead. Shortly after the restart the School scored again, this time through Rigos, following a free kick near the line, then a little later Dykes broke the defence with a fine dummy, and Stene, taking a difficult pass well, just reached the line. Neither second-half try was converted and the School led 14-6. Venture, however, now played with great dash and the School were forced to defend. This they did so badly that in the final fifteen minutes they conceded a goal, a dropped goal, a try and the game, 17-14. They were without Phillips, Huston and Windrem, but there was no excuse for their shocking defensive play. SCHOOL v. SHAWNIGAN LAKE SCHOOL Playing away the School suffered a very heavy defeat, going down by four goals and four tries Q35 pointsl to nil. For some time the play was fairly even and, even after Cree had been beaten by a change of pace on the wing and a try conceded, the School were still in the game. Murdoch outhooked the opposite num- ber and in the tight the pack shoved to advantage. In the line-out, however they were out-jumped and out-generalled by taller, more active and more intelligent men, and they were no match for Shawni- gan in getting possession, The result was that before half time the School were in deep trouble-16 points in arrears. The heavy-footed School forwards stayed with it throughout the second half, but they were always second-best and no match for men 24 who were vastly more experienced and yards faster. In this extremity the School backs could produce no remedy. They were outpaced and the opposition made merry in the centre, where the tackling was deplorable. The fact that they were lacking three regulars was no excuse for a very poor display. Chapman and Cree, the wings, showed that they could be dangerous when fed quickly, and Cole, virtually untried at full back, came through a harrowing experience with credit. SCHOOL v. OAK BAY HIGH SCHOOL The School were successful at Carnarvon Park by two goals ften pointsj to nil. The School started badly and might easily have been a goal down in the first five minutes, The forwards were superior in the tight and the line-out but were lethargic in the loose, where they were con- sistently beaten. They improved as the game progressed, however, and some intelligent forward play on the left led to some good passing by the backs and a try on the right by Chapman, which Stene goaled with a splendid kick. After the restart it was all School, but the light became very bad and the referee wisely called an early halt. just before the end, in the gathering darkness, Dykes sold a fine dummy and ran straight through the centre to score. Stene converted and the School won 10-O. SCHOOL v. OAK BAY WANDERERS Untermediatej This fixture was played at Royal Roads and resulted in a win for the School by three tries C9 pointsl to a goal and a try C8 pointsj. It was a very disappointing match, the opposition being very in- experienced and primitive in their methods, and the refereeing charit- able, to say the least. The School were faced with a very difficult task in that they were out-roughed by a determined opposition who lived offside. Under these conditions constructive Rugby was difficult, but the School did not use their many opportunities well, and, when finally they were favoured with a penalty or two, they failed to turn them to account. Windrem scored the first School try from the loose and Rigos was credited with the second, when the scrum pushed over, but Stene failed to convert from easy positions. The score was 6-3 at half time. Shortly after the restart the School paid the penalty for irresolute tackling when they conceded a goal, and it was not until late in the game that they went ahead to stay, Phillips finishing a nice movement at the flag. Dykes was outstanding for the School, while Cole, who saved the game in the final stages, also had a good match. Stene and Cree were the pick of the forwards. SCHOOL v. OAK BAY HIGH SCHOOL The School were defeated at home by a goal K5 pointsl to nil. The High School pressed from the opening whistle and were re- warded in the first five minutes, when some gentle and ineffective 25 defence presented them with a try, which was goaled under the posts. The School then awoke and the rest of the half was theirs. Twice Dykes broke the defence in the middle but there was nobody on hand to accept his scoring pass. The centres were ineffective and Chapman, on the wing, was given little opportunity to show his speed. Throughout the second half the High School never once threatened, but they did defend splendidly. The School forwards controlled the game but the heeling was too slow against a defence which marked very closely and tackled keenly. The School did everything but score and in the last minute Palmer crossed under the posts only to be hurled back violently before he could fall. So the School were beaten after having had 80? of the game-a disappointing result, but deserved. SCHOOL v. VICTORIA COLLEGE 2nd, XV Playing on the new College Ground at Gordon Head the School were successful by two goals and two tries f16 pointsj to a goal Q5 pointsj. The School opened the scoring when Dykes made a penetration in the centre to pave the way for a try on the left by Phillips. Stene failed to convert. A little later some orthodox passing gave Chapman room to move on the right and he scored near the posts for Stene to convert. At this stage the School were on top, and they went further ahead when good work in the line-out by Brannon, and some timely passing by Dykes and Cole, led to a try by Blair, which Stene failed to goal. With the slope in their favour the School were expected to do even better after half time. This they did not do. Some good play by Dykes led to Phillips' second try, which was splendidly goaled by Stene, but the College were also successful with a try, which was goaled. The forwards rather fell away in the second half, packing badly and af- fording the scrum half little protection. SCHOOL v. OAK BAY HIGH SCHOOL The School were full value for their win over Oak Bay High School by two tries and a penalty goal Q9 pointsj to nil. The backs, with the exception of Dykes, were not clever or thrust- ful enough to press home the advantage in face of sure and keen tackling. Chapman took the corner flag out twice and Phillips once, but it was a forward, Stene, who scored the first try from a loose scrum near the Oak Bay line. He failed to convert but was successful a little later with a penalty. The second half was a repetition of the first, with the visitors seldom looking dangerous but defending admirably, Dykes scored the final try, putting himself through with a fine dummy, Stene failed to goal and the School won 9-0. 26 SCHOOL v. ROYAL ROADS The School, playing away, faced a mixed lst. and Qnd. Royal Roads side and went down by a goal, a penalty goal and a try Q11 pointsj to a try C3 pointsj. They started confidently and soon opened their account when Phillips ra.n very well on the left to finish a good movement and score far out. Stene failed to add the extra points. Throughout the first half the School were outweighed forward and outpaced as well, and cracks began to show in the defence. Angus I, who had started well at full back, was badly at fault when his clearing kick on his own goal line was blocked and a try resulted which was goaled. Royal Roads had the better of the argument after half time and soon added to their lead when Chapman failed to hold his man on the wing, when he had him well covered, and a try, which was not goaled, resulted in the corner. The School should have added to their score when Phillips crossed at the flag but failed to ground the ball, and Royal Roads went further ahead just before the end, when they were successful with a penalty. Once again the School defence had proved inadequate. SCHOOL v. ST. GEORGE'S SCHOOL In losing by a try Q3 pointsj to a goal C5 pointsl the School gave a fine display. From the opening whistle the School pressed and for some time St. George's were forced to defend stubbornly, Angus I, with the wind behind him, kicked well at full back, the outsides were adequate and the forwards were spirited and quicker on the ball than St. George's. The visitors weathered the storm and had their turn, all but succeeding when their wing was bundled into touch in goal. Toward half time the School came on again strongly but it was a scoreless first half. The wind freshened after the restart and St. George's profited by some very long kicks, which found touch at the flag. Each time the School fought back hard, but finally conceded a try near the posts, a very large forward, though tackled, grounding the ball in goal at full stretch. Extra points were added and St. George's led 5-0. The School were full of fight and reacted strongly, being especially threatening on the right, where Chapman ran with great power. Dykes and Huston were also very prominent as the School attacked strongly. St. George's defended well, however, and despite strenuous efforts the School were unable to cross. In the closing minutes they were successful when Stene kicked a penalty, but this was small solace for their 5-3 defeat in a game where once again their territorial advantage was wide. The forwards all played with spirit. Windrem had his best game of the season while Stene, Rigos and Cree all played fine games, SCHOOL v. SHAWNIGAN LAKE SCHOOL Playing at home the School gave their best display of the season in an extremely fine match. Actually they scored the only try of the 27 game and had a decided territorial advantage against opponents who had beaten them easily earlier in the season. The School opened very confidently. In the first five minutes Phillips made ground on the left, kicked ahead cleverly and gathered perfectly in the Shawnigan twenty-five. At that instant the Shawnigan full back, also going for the catch, came across and a very nasty colli- sion resulted. Phillips returned after treatment but the Shawnigan player took no further part in the game. Play continued to be very spirited and mainly of a forward nature, the School pack fully holding their own. Shawnigan opened the scoring when, during a period of pressure, in the School twenty-five, Tassin was offside in front of the posts and goal was kicked. Following the tragedy the School continued to play most spirited football, but marking was very close and at half time Shawnigan still led 3-0. lVith the wind in their favour the School stormed to the attack at the restart, The forwards continued to play extremely well, Stene, Rigos and Cree being particularly prominent. Shawnigan were also well served by their forwards, particularly in the line-out. Neither set of backs looked very dangerous, although one movement in the Shawnigan centre was well stopped by Angus. The School drew level when Shawnigan attempted to relieve pressure by a very long throw in from touch. Windrem, at the back of the line-out, prevented this, and the ball rolled loose over the Shawnigan line, where Tassin was successful in the race for possession. Stene failed to convert from a nasty angle, The School backs now began to get the ball, Three times it was hurried out to Chapman on the right. This player made electri- fying runs on each occasion and once was brilliantly supported by Dykes, who took an inside pass almost on the goal line before it was noticed that the touch judge's flag was up, The School appeared to be the stronger in the closing minutes, but there was no further scoring. Both sides had played very spirited football and, while the School had had the better of the game, it must be remembered that Shawni- gan were one short for most of the match. A draw was actually a very fair result. SCHOOL v. OAK BAY HIGH SCHOOL The School were successful against Oak Bay High School by three goals and a penalty goal Q18 pointsj to a goal and a try C8 pointsl. Attacking from the start the School soon opened their account, Chap- man scoring on the right after all the backs had handled. Stene kicked a fine goal. The High School then had their turn and, aided by some shocking defensive play, scored a try, which they did not improve. Before half time, however, the School had scored again. Again Chap- man was the scorer and again Stene kicked goal. Shortly after the restart Huston, the School scrum half, was injured and took no further part in the game. The School, now with fourteen men, were not impressive, but definitely the better side. Stene kicked a penalty goal and the School led 13-3. Towards the close Dykes put himself through the centre with his dummy at mid-field and then ran 28 strongly between the posts, Stene completed a perfect kicking per- formance from the easy position. just on time an Oak Bay three- quarter ran through the centre without serious School protest and scored between the posts. Goal was kicked and the School won 18-8. While they had possession the School were easily the better side, but once again it was shown that a determined thrust at their centre could produce panic and disaster. SCHOOL v. ROYAL ROADS 2nd. XV The School were far too strong for Royal Roads 2nd. XV, winning by six goals, a penalty goal, a dropped goal and a try C 39 pointsj to a penalty goal Q3 pointsj. The School were ahead 11-0 at half time through tries by Chapman and Phillips and a conversion and a penalty goal by Stene. Territorially the visitors had a distinct advantage. After the restart it was all School and they ran away with the game. Dykes scored two tries, one from a well-judged kick ahead and gather. Tassin scored from an inside pass by Phillips, while both Chapman and Stene also scored. Angus I dropped a goal from play, while Stene goaled two tries and Blair three to prove that kicking is not quite a lost art. The only Royal Roads success came from a penalty. SCHOOL v. OLD BOYS The Victoria Old Boys, assisted by Mr. Wilson of the School Staff, defeated the School by two tries Q6 pointsj to nil. The School, without Huston and Mousel, played very badly indeed. Windrem was no substitute for Huston and only Chapman was in the least degree dangerous. Forward the School were held by a make-shift but very hard-working pack. John Wenman and Ted Pollard, who scored tries, and Mr. Wilson were outstanding players for the Old Boys. W.R.G.W. 29 FIRST FIFTEEN CHARACTERS RIGOS CCaptainj -An experienced forward who played in the second row and was dependable in every phase of forward play. Led the side well and played the game in a splendid spirit. DYKES fVice-Captainj -An excellent outside half, Essentially an attacker. His handling and passing were sound and his use of the dummy judicious and effective, Unselfish, and always did his best to keep the game open. His kicking has improved somewhat, but in general his defence is still weak. MURDOCH I - Lacking in stature but nevertheless a very spirited performer. Valuable in the tight, where he hooked effectively. Rather slow in the loose and his tackling was weak. DODYK--His vast size made it difficult for him to fit into the scrum, but he performed creditably in the front row and was excellent in the line-out. Slow in the loose. PALMER-Another front row man, who excelled in the tight but was very heavy-footed in the loose. Keen and willing to a degree, and invariably gave of his best. CREE I -A good second-row man. Dependable in the tight and in the line- out. Quicker on the ball than most in the loose and a far better tackler. Also performed creditably as a wing three-quarter. STENE -Very useful anywhere in the back row. In the loose he was never far from the ball and was frequently on hand to take a vital pass or to profit from mistakes by the opposition. Defensively he was one of the best of the forwards and was also most keen and spirited. Developed rapidly as a place-kicker and had an excellent season. WINDREM - A useful back-row forward with a good knowledge of the game. Courageous, determined and experienced, yet, although he had some good games, he was not consistent and never quite lived up to expectations. MOUSEL - Previously a wing three-quarter, he came into the side late in the season as a back-row forward and earned his place, Rather lacking in anticipation but took the running tackle beautifully. ANGUS I-A full back whose kicking and handling are adequate if he is given enough time, but he is easily flustered and tends to panic under pressure. His tackling and falling are still weak. HUSTON - A most courageous scrum half, who could take heavy punishment. His service was quick and accurate, and he was a dangerous man near his opponents' line, His kicking and tackling were not up to standard. PHILLIPS-A much-improved wing who enjoyed a successful season. Pos- sessed a useful short kick and an effective change of pace. His defence was adequate. TASSIN-Played some good games at inside centre but was not consistent and his defence was always hesitant. A useful kick both in attack and defence. BLAIR-Rather awkward, his kicking was weak and his handling no more than adequate, but he possessed unlimited courage and took on more than his share of the tackling and falling with marked success. A useful place-kicker. Loved the game and always gave of his best. CHAPMAN--A big wing with pace, he was a very potent force this season, scoring some fine tries, many more of which are in store. His tackling has improved and his hands are fair, but his kicking is still very weak. W.R.G.W. 30 RUGBY COLTS XV R. Barker, G. Cree, M. Johnson, M. Shanaman, S. Lowe, R. Bapty. M. Wyatt, J.

COLTS RUGBY The Colts Rugger season can best be described as one of steady pro- gress rather than one of outstanding promise, Quite a high proportion of the boys representing the School had never played Rugger before, and so we were at a considerable disadvantage in the earlier part of the season when confronted with more experienced teams, The first team was, quite frankly, disappointing, since we lost all our matches and there was little team-work in evidence. However, after the Christ- mas Holidays everyone returned with renewed vigour and cohesion developed considerably, so that by the end of the season there was much good play to be witnessed, notably by Zaccarelli and Harrison on the right wing, and by the halves, Bapty and Barker I. The for- wards, ably led by F inch, the Captain, and well supported by Nelson, McKenzie, Jack II, Shanaman, Murdoch II and Wyatt in particular, improved greatly throughout the season and enjoyed working together, so that by the end they had developed into quite a useful combination and were beginning to think about their play. Of the matches played, we were well beaten both times by St. George's, who had a tearrl composed of quicker thinkers and movers, while against Shawnigan we registered a win and two losses, but in these cases the teams were very evenly matched in all departments of the game. However, we were too strong for Qualicum Colts and ran rings round them. 31 RUGBY '105 lbs., XV R. Skidmore, A. Archibald, P. Meyer, P. Stephenson, B. Bolli, P. Condon, B. Douglas, J. YVenman. C.

At the end of the season we entered three teams for the Victoria and District Junior Seven-a-Side Competition and did very well. Teams A and C both reached the semi-finals, while team B, having been put out in the first round, went on to win the consolation prize. This was a most enjoyable afternoon, which proved to be a great success with which to end the season's play.

XV' The team had a very good season, for the competition this year was of a high standard, St. George's having their finest team for some years. The boys were keen and practised hard, and many new boys gained their places in the team. Towards the end of the season the side was strong, for we had overcome our weakness where the loose scrum was concerned, and the forwards without exception were able to run and pass the ball with some skill. Wilde must be congratulated on his captaincy and the quality of his own play. He proved to be a fine attacking wing forward, after moving reluctantly to that position from wing three-quarter, Walton is a fine natural athlete and he played some good games. McLean I, Spittal and Condon played well in the scrum in their first season of Rugby. Skidmore II and Wenman were fearless, Meyer progressed well, Archibald was a very fast wing and Stephenson's place kicking was valuable, Timrnis I and Holm showed a lot of progress in the scrum, with Timmis I being on hand to score tries on two occasions. It is hoped that many of these boys will provide a nucleus for good lst. XVs in years to come. The Team was as follows: Wilde CCaptainl, Stephenson, Bolli II, Meyer, Wenman, Archibald, Walton, Skidmore, Spittal, McLean I, Chattaway, Condon, Timmis I, Holm and Douglas I.

XV' The Team produced an excellent record and a most useful season in all ways. The importance of Rugby at this age and weight is to concentrate on the basic skills. The boys worked hard at these and, with their tremendous spirit and enthusiasm, had a most successful tC8.II1. Barker II and Hardy II, at half back, show a lot of promise, and Bapty II and Wilt have the ability to do well. Wenman, who played for the 105 lb. XV, was obviously a useful acquisition in matches. The forwards did not play together as a single unit. There was too much individual effort and their play was, therefore, ragged. This was the team's most difficult problem, Garrigues may become a useful for- ward, especially in the line-out. Chaworth-Musters was a first-class Captain, who showed tremendous enthusiasm and leadership as well as playing well himself. The team was as follows: Chaworth-Musters QCaptainj, Wenman, Bapty II, Mittelstaedt, Montgomery, Witt, Barker II, Hardy II, Howe I, Hegar, Davey I, Harris I, Ingham, Garrigues and Douglas II. RESULTS v. St. George's won 6 - 3 v, Shawnigan drawn 0-O v, Shawnigan won 8 - 3 v. St. George's won 8 - 6 R.W.W. JUNIOR SOCCER Rugby is, of course, our major winter sport, but both Junior Soccer Teams played several games, in which, considering the unavoidable lack of practice, the standard of play was commendably high. In the Fall Term the Grades VII and VIII Team played matches against Esquimalt junior High, Glenlyon and Charles Wright Acad- emy, Tacoma. In the first two games we were narrowly beaten by teams much stronger than ourselves, but the Team had improved enough to win the third game 5-2. In the Spring Term the return game against Charles Wright Academy was played in Tacoma and provided the Team with a 7-1 victory and a most enjoyable week-end. Stephenson captained the side and played very good Soccer, and Walton and Wilde proved an able and hard-working pair of wing halves. The Grades V and VI Team played four games-three against Cliffside and one against St. George's. All these games were won in a most convincing manner by a Team which showed much enthusiasm and promise. Hardy II and Barker II played well as inside forwards and Garrigues was very good in goal.

Seeger. CRICKET Prospects were not particularly bright for the 1961 season as D. A. Angus, the Captain, had only three others from the previous year to assist. The tremendous advance made by Coward, the Vice-Captain, helped to remedy the situation and in school matches the Team held its own. Actually the batting never really failed disastrously, Coward and Webb were able to carry the Side with the ball and, while the fielding was poor, Seeger proved to be a wicket-keeper of real promise. The outstanding individual performance was, of course, Webb's remarkable seven wickets for one run against St. George's. Five matches were arranged but one of the Shawnigan games was cancelled because of the adverse weather and the other abandoned, for the same reason, after the School had made 67 for eight. Of the three games which were finished one was won, one lost and one drawn. The Clayton Cup was won by Kennaugh's XI and the Holms Cup, for inter-house competition, by Brentwood House. A. O. Coward was awarded his Colours and was also the winner of the Bat presented by the University School Incogs to the best all- rounder in the School. 35 The 1961 XI was as follows: D. A. Angus QCaptainj, A. O. Coward fVice-Captainl, M. Kennaugh, B. Tassin, D. MCC. Crubb, D. O. Windrem, N. R. Hawkesworth, T. W. S. Seeger, M. E. Symons, R. P. Webb and B. Phillips. The 2nd. XI did not exist officially, but one Saturday afternoon a group of swashbuckling enthusiasts, masquerading as Cricketers, enter- tained Shawnigan Lake 2nd, XI and defeated them decisively, There was little to suggest that the M.C.C. Coaching Book was held in veneration, but much zeal and some skill were shown. The Colts XI enjoyed games with Shawnigan Lake School, losing once and having the better of a drawn game on another occasion. There was general enthusiasm and many boys came on well in this group. Simonson, Cage, Webster, Shanaman and Cadban were parti- cularly keen. W.R.G.W. FIRST ELEVEN MATCHES SCHOOL v. OAK BAY C.C. Oak Bay, who were far too strong for the School, won by seven wickets, Batting first the School were well served by Coward, whose 26 was full of promise. Symons added 11 at the end, but the others were overawed. Oak Bay hit off the runs without difficulty, but Coward, who took two for 18 in 11 overs, bowled creditably. UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OAK BAY C.C.

Six of his victims were clean bowled while one was caught-and-bowled. The St. George's total was ten, of which five came from the bat. The school bowling was straight but without pace or guile and there was no apparent reason for the record collapse. When the School batted they made a shaky start against a pair of very useful bowlers, but Tassin, going in late, improved matters, and the innings closed for 62. ST.

W.R.G.W. 37 FIRST ELEVEN CHARACTERS ANGUS I CCaptainj - Failed to improve much with the bat, his forward play being weak, Useful in the field and an enthusiastic Captain. GOWARD fVice-Captainj -Vastly improved all round. A free batsman, he drives well and punishes bowling short of a length. He is not as happy playing back and does not move his feet quickly enough. With the ball he has now acquired more pace and control. Quite adequate in the field. A keen and promising cricketer. KENNAUGH - Not very successful with the bat though he is hard to dismiss when he concentrates. By nature a hitter, he frequently chooses the wrong one and, never hitting quite straight, pays the penalty, Rather slovenly in the field. TASSIN-Rather awkward in style but improved with the bat and played some small but useful innings. He has also come on considerably with the ball. Active and safe in the field. WINDREM-Rather passive but has some idea of defence and can hit the short ball on the leg side. A bad runner between the wickets. Lacks antici- pation in the field. PHILLIPS- Inexperienced, but developed a keen interest and came on con- siderably. Uses his feet well and is always looking for a chance to score. WEBB-With the ball his length and accuracy improved greatly and he enjoyed considerable success, Primitive with the bat but can hit hard. Weak in the field. GRUBB - Playing forward or back defensively he is quite adequate and diffi- cult to dislodge, but as soon as he commits himself to an attacking stroke he is in trouble. Weak in the field. HAWKESWORTH II-With the bat he has promise, but will go no further until he learns to use his feet. A poor judge of a run, Weak in the field. SYMONS -With the bat he is somewhat agricultural, but his eye is good and he has made some timely runs, With the ball his length is inconsistent. Active in the field but not safe. Extremely keen and enthusiastic. SEEGER-He enjoyed a good season behind the stumps and is a wicket keeper of promise. With the bat he can deal with short bowling and is learning that defence is important. W.R.G.W. 38 JUNIOR CRICKET CGRADES VII AND vim Many boys lacked experience and the Team was dependent on its key members, Wenman, Walton and Stephenson. However, enthusiasm and good fielding enabled us to compile a very satisfactory record. Five boys, Condon, Douglas I, Meyer, Kelley and Bowman, had not played Cricket before and are to be congratulated on their progress. Wilde, Holm, Lenfesty and Teagle have shown a lot of improvement. Notable performances were by Wenman, who captured eight Glen- lyon wickets in the first game, Walton, who bowled well for six wickets in the return game and Stephenson, who batted well and scored over 20 runs on two occasions. Wenman will be a very good batsman, but at present he is lacking in physique and often loses his wicket by trying to force the pace. Many of these boys will do a lot to help School Cricket in the very near future. RESULTS v. Glenlyon lost by 7 runs v. Glenlyon won by 8 wkts. v. Shawnigan won by 6 wkts. v. Shawnigan rain stopped play V. St. Michael's lost by 8 wkts. The following played for the XI: Wenman QCaptainj, Wilde, Wal- ton, Stephenson, Holm, Lenfesty, Teagle, Condon, Douglas, Meyer, Kelley and Bowman. R.W.W. HARVEY HOUSE Xl The Team was made up of boys in the second of the two Cricket Groups and consisted mainly of V and VI Graders, with a few from Grade VII. During the short period in which the boys are exposed to the game, it is difficult to reach any standard of technical proficiency. Nevertheless, several of the Team made great progress during the Term and many of them show real promise. All four matches played were won by comfortable margins. Against Glenlyon, the first match was won by 60 runs, and the second by 67 runs: against St. Michael's the team won by 63 runs, and against Cliffside by six wickets. Chaworth-Musters captained the side well, Hardy II, Wilt and Barker II produced some good bowling and Timmis II kept wicket very well. The fielding, though sometimes slack, was of a fairly good standard, and few catches were dropped. I.M. 39 GRASS HOCKEY XI 'lx 'MZ -1 e, M Z1 DM 3 Ri' I. Dykes, J. Angus, P. Clark, A. Keble, N.

GRASS HCCKEY Because there was practically no rain here in Victoria until the end of October, we were able to play quite a number of games of Grass Hockey, with the result that a number of boys has become quite proficient in handling a stick. Four matches in all were played on the School Field in front of Brown Hall and, as may be gathered from the results, after the first match the School did very well to hold its more experienced opponents, and was most unlucky not to win the final game. Of the boys participating in the games all possessed speed and determination, and ran and harassed their opponents continuously. Kennaugh, the Captain, was a useful back, playing very steadily and hitting the ball cleanly, while his partner, Tassin, was more erratic, though spectacular at times. The halves all worked hard, but found the technique of the reverse-side tackle a difficult one to master. As may be seen from the results, we scored only three goals, and this is a fair representation of the limitations of the forwards when inside the circle. An understandable lack of stick-work showed up clearly in front of goal, but generally the mid-field play and the distribution of the ball about the field were good. Dykes, Chapman and Keble all showed thrust, and Stene, in the centre, worked as hard as anyone, while Clark, at centre-half, also did well. The results were: v. U.B.C. lost 1 - 4 v. Victoria drawn 1 - 1 v. Vancouver drawn 1 - 1 v. Victoria lost 0 - 1 The following represented the School: Palmer, Kennaugh, Tassin, Clark, Coward, Angus II, Keble, Blair, Hawkesworth II, Dykes, Chapman, Cole, Phillips, Angus I and Monkman. Since the end of our school hockey season a number of boys have played in games with or against the Victoria side, and we hope that this will continue in the future and help to build up more interest in Grass Hockey in the Victoria area. N.C.B.C. BASKETBALL This year for the first time in recent memory the School had a regular Basketball Team, which played a number of matches and was led by a full-time coach, Mr. Prowse, who, although he was new to the game, gave us all the help he possibly could and spent a great deal of time arranging fixtures with local teams. In all eight games were played, of which three were won. Credit for these victories should go to Brannon, who averaged nearly 24- points per game and, in the game against the strong University Baptist 41 Church Team from Seattle, scored 29 of the School's 46 points. The high point of the season came when we travelled to Shawnigan Lake for our annual game. Although we lost 43-45 it was the first time the School had come even close to defeating its up-island rivals, and it was we, in fact, who held the lead until just a few minutes from the end. At the end of the season Colours were awarded for the first time in the School's history. These went to Abel and Brannon. The prospects for next year are very good, with only one key player, Blair, not returning Qthough his timely rebounding will be missed a great deall. The Inter-House Competition, for which there was a Cup for the first time, was won by F ounders, and Brentwood won the under 16 competition. We are all greatly indebted to Mr. Macdonald, Headmaster of Lansdowne Junior High School, for allowing us to use their gym two nights a week for practice and for matches. The Team was as follows: Abel QCaptainl, Brannon, Angus I, Blair, Monkman, Dykes, Huston, Sweeting, Van Scholten and Shanaman. George Abel. TENNIS Tennis has been played most actively this last term, and many boys have taken advantage of the availability of the Courts. Through- out the season Tennis has been run on a regular games basis, boys having to apply to Stene, Prefect in charge, for the booking of courts. The scheme worked well, enabling many more boys than in previous years to play. Towards the end of term a large number of boys took part in a knock-out tournament and many good matches were played. The Final ended in a well-deserved victory for Sturdy, who played very steadily in spite of adverse wind conditions to beat Coward by two Sets to one. N.R.B.P., N.C.B.C. 42 SWIMMING TEAM D.

SWIMMING Owing to circumstances beyond our control we are unable to supply detailed swimming notes this yearg but aquatic readers will be happy to hear that, under the energetic captaincy of H. G. Sweeting, the School swimming has reached a very high standard. Public events have in- cluded a meet against Shawnigan Qnarrowly lost, but amply revenged in the first event of the new school yearj and a Cadet Inter-Services Tournament at 'Naden', in which the Corps Team scored a fighting win against stiff opposition. Founders were successful in the Inter-House Sports, and Sweeting emerged from the Tank Champion for the third year running. qEd.y 43 SKIN DIVING A Skin Diving Club was organized in the Autumn Term to cater for those boys who wished to learn this fascinating sport- learn , not indulge in , being the operational term. The 20 boys who enrolled for the course were instructed in the classroom before moving to the Swimming Tank to obtain practical experience with SCUBA diving gear. The class was taken into the sea on Autumn week-ends in twos and threes, and all the pupils were successful in their dives. Mr. Caleb accompanied the party as a pupil of the diving class and the Master interested in the sport. It is hoped that these courses will lead to more boys learning this intriguing sport safely and under competent super- vision. P.A.C. SKIING This Winter we have continued our skiing expeditions on a number of week-ends and have had some excellent times. During last year the new ferry service from Swartz Bay to Tsawwassen was opened and this now brought Mt. Baker well within our range. As a result only one trip was made to Hurricane Ridge while four parties visited Mt. Baker. For the latter we found a very convenient motel in Abbots- ford, and, taking plenty of food with us, we were able to enjoy two full days' skiing each week-end, followed by a dash for the ferry, which allowed us to be back in School by 9:15 on the Sunday evening. The standard of skiing was quite good, particularly that of Jeffer- son, while Monkman, Singer and Dobell showed commendable skill, and many others made good use of the facilities and the varied choice of runs. Generally speaking the weather was good and at times the snow conditions were excellent, so that, although a few boys became expert lodge skiers , the majority of us was able to make full use of the time on the mountain. If all goes well we hope that we shall be able to renew our acquaint- ance with the snows of Mt. Baker after Christmas next year. N.o.B.c., N.R.B.P. 44 El SPORTS CHAMPIONS S. S. Lowe Untermediatej, A. J. V. Keble fSeniorl, C. J. W. Butler Uuniorl. ATHLETICS The enthusiasm for Athletics this year was very encouraging, and, although there were no brilliant performers, hard training did produce some good results from a number of boys. Training started on the first day of term in the form of Calisthenics under the direction of Mr. Leslie, and after Inspection Day moved out on to the track, where Interval Training was introduced under Mr. Prowse, That this form of training produces results can be seen by the performances of the boys who worked hardest at it, notably Cree I, who ran a 10.2 100 yards in the Triangular Meet, Keble, who won the Corsan Trophy on Sports Day, Chapman, who beat the School Shot Put record by over two feet and Lowe, who proved the outstanding runner in the Inter- mediate Group. It is hoped that more boys will use this form of training next year, as only really hard training will produce a good Athletics Team. Five Meets were held altogether, two Senior, two Intermediate and one Under 14-. The Intermediate Team lost to Shawnigan on a very wet day, the one outstanding event, from the School's point of view, being the 440 yards, in which Lowe had a fine win. Later on in the 4-5 Term the Intermediate Team joined forces with the Under 14s and had a good win over Glenlyon and St. Michael's in what proved to be a very enjoyable Meet, the first of many we hope. As well as the Annual Triangular Meet with Shawnigan and St. George's the Senior Team had a very successful Meet with Oak Bay High School, the Victoria High School Champions, and did very well to come within five points of victory. Outstanding performances in- cluded Keble's 220 win and Cree I's winning run in the last leg of the 4x 110 yards relay. Rather disappointingly we finished last in the Triangular Meet, but we were hampered by a good deal of bad luck. Half way through the Meet, largely due to the prowess of our High Jumpers and Hurdlers, Chapman and Blair in particular, we held a narrow one point lead. Then Keble pulled a muscle in his leg, which deprived us of valuable points in the 220 yards, Hop, Step and Jump and Medley Relay. The Meet did show too that we are very weak in the 880 yards and Mile in comparison with the other two schools, a matter that can only be rectified by hard running round the Golf Course in the Winter months! Lastly, I would like to thank Mr. Leslie for all his help on the track this year, and for the very handsome Rose Bowl which he has presented for annual competition between Oak Bay-University and Cowichan- Shawnigan. Together with our colleagues at Oak Bay we will certainly do our best to win it next year! The Track Team was as follows: Cree I CCaptainD, Blair, Chapman, Keble, Sweeting, Dykes, Clark, Van Scholten, Mousel, Stene, Goward, Tassin, Rigos, Huston, Lowe, Monkman, Barker I, Johnson II and Condon. Colours were awarded to Cree I, Blair, Chapman and Keble. ANNUAL SPORTS The Annual Sports were held on Saturday, June 3rd., and we were honoured by the presence of the Lieut.-Governor of B.C., the Hon. George Pearkes, and Mrs. Pearkes, who gave away the prizes. Several events were run off before Sports Day. These included the Inter- mediate Mile Qwon by Lowe in 5m. 11s.j, in which the first three men all beat the existing record, and the Shot Put, in which Chapman's heave of 43' 7 beat the School record by over two feet. Sports Day itself provided a typical hot Victoria Summer after- noon, and, although there were no outstanding performances, Goward showed form that promises well for next year's Javelin, Van Scholten won an extremely exciting 440 yards, Chapman showed good style in winning the High Jump and Keble and Lowe both displayed consider- able stamina and constancy in winning the Corsan and Worthington Cups and becoming Senior and Intermediate Champions respectively. The Marpole Cup, for the best athlete under 14, was won by Butler II. RESULTS 100 Yards, under 16 CBlundell Cupj .... 1. Fraser, 2. Lowe, 3.

CROSS COUNTRY The School Cross Country was run over much the same course as in previous years and was won by Grubb flioundersj, with Keble CBrentwoodj and Lowe CBrentwoodj second and third respectively. Grubb's interest and participation in distance running has always been keen, and he was a most deserving winner of the Old Boys' Cup which goes to the first man home. Barker I, the first Junior to finish, won the Robertson Cup for the second year in succession. There were 130 starters and 130 finishers, and Founders were winners of the Inter-House competition. The Annual Race for the T. Eaton Trophy was run this year at St. George's School, Vancouver. Victoria High School did not com- pete and the School finished third behind Shawnigan Lake and St. George's, Grubb, our first man, placing seventh. Early in March the B.C. High School Cross Country Championship took place at Victoria High School. Eleven teams competed over 3.4- miles and there were 77 runners, The School Team finished ninth, individuals placing as follows: Grubb 32nd., Van Scholten 39th., Keble 4-5th., Etheridge 59th. and Hudson 70th.

THE CORPS This year, as last, many changes and improvements have been made in the Corps, while the standards for which the Unit is becoming at least provincially famous have been fully maintained. Among these changes have been the introduction of F.N. drill for the Guard, in anticipation of the day when our present .303s will be replaced by the modern F.N.s, the placing of emphasis on Fieldcraft, culminating in the Spring Term with a scheme for I and IV Platoons and the Band, near Mount Newton, the fitting out of all Cadets with kilts, consider- ably improving the appearance of the whole Corps, and the teaching of new subjects, notably National Survival and Fundamentals. We were honoured, on May 3rd., to be inspected by General Foulkes, recently-retired C.G.S. of the Canadian Army-a distinc- tion enjoyed by few other Corps. Also this year the Corps took part in the Victoria Day Parade and, as usual, showed itself to advantage. The two Sunset Ceremonies were excellent, and a final Guard Parade on Speech Day was highly praised by our distinguished guest, the Lieut.-Governor. Once again we were represented at Vernon, this year both in the Cadet Leader and Cadet Leader Instructor courses. Our Cadets were prominent in many aspects of camp life, and Sgt. King carried on the tradition started by last year's Adjutant of winning the Cup for the best first-year Cadet C competing against some 14-OOD. It is hoped that this year one of our contingent will clinch the 'hat trick'. In conclusion, on behalf of the Officers, N.C.O.s and Other Ranks, I would like to express my deep appreciation of the work done by Lts. Genge, Storr and Wilson fto whom most of the credit for the field scheme must goj in keeping the Corps on an even keel, to Mr, Caleb, who has supervised the Shooting under difficult conditions and to the Matrons, who have come so often to our rescue at the last moment.

ADDENDUM l'VCTTC'j During their session at the Vernon Cadet Trades Training Camp those members of the Corps that attended made an outstanding mark for themselves. Most praiseworthy was Ralph King, who not only became Battalion Commander but also won the highest award of the Camp- the Trophy for the Best Cadet in the Battalion. Grubb and Tuck were Commanders of 'K' CD. 8: and A' Companies respec- tively. Wilkinson, who had won the Best Cadet Award for 'H' Com- pany, was No. l Platoon Commander, and Hawkesworth II was a Platoon Sergeant. These representatives certainly maintained the reputation of the School at the Camp. CD. McC. Grubb, C.S.M.j l SHOOTDIG TEAM G. Murdoch, H. Pollard, W. Brammall, H. Sweeting, C. Collins, R.

The obvious difficulties in transporting a group down to town each afternoon in the restricted time available have not affected the en- thusiasm or proficiency of the Corps. Indeed we were able to complete two shoots for the Youth of Empire Competition, one at the beginning of the year and one at the end. The latter showed the average increase in scores to be 1275! It is to be hoped that the Shooting Range envisaged as part of the new Classroom Block will soon be completed. There were a number of competitions during the year, the results of which are given below. We trust that the competition arranged with Shawnigan will become an annual event. The main results and achievements were as follows: Dominion of Canada Rifle Association Team A Average on three shoots 9l.4W Team B Average on three shoots 85.7W Crossed Rifles were held by 70 Members of the Corps, including 30 awarded 1960-61 Clst.

THE BAND THE BAND The year has indeed been a memorable and successful one for the Band. This success was due wholly to constant practice and hard work which everyone contributed throughout the year. Once more, unfortunately, the Band had to start almost completely from scratch, as only six members from the previous Band had returned. This year Band and Corps participated in the May 24th. Parade. Out of six Bugle Bands the School's placed second-a good per- formance for a first showing, The three important Parades of the year were, for the Band, the most successful that I have known. On Inspection Day everyone in the Band moved with a military precision second to none, and the two Sunset Ceremonies were sterling per- formances, with the Bugles playing faultlessly. Next year I think the School can look forward to just as good a Band, if not better, so may I extend to the forthcoming Band and Bandmaster the Best of Luck- and don't accept anything but perfection! Barry Phillips, Drum Major. 53 THE SIGNALS The Signalling, though achieving only moderate success in com- parison with the records of previous years, nevertheless registered a tremendous improvement over last year's class, in which lack of serviceable equipment caused loss of interest. This year, thanks to the efforts of Clark and Powell-Williams, who made an oscillator appear quite suddenly out of the blue, a small group of Signallers was able to acquire sufficient practice to qualify in the exarninations at the end of the session. As a result Powell-Williams, Woollends, Gadban, Gage and Groos passed their '6 w.p.m.' and Powell-Williams his '12 w.p.m.' I would like to thank all those who helped to make Signalling this year a success, including Blaney I, whose 100 ft. coil of wire came in very handy on Inspection Day, I feel sure that these results will be a source of encouragement to those trying again next year. Michael Woollends, Sgt. RADIO COMMUNICATIONS At the start of the year it looked as though Radio Communications would be inactive because of the lack of serviceable equipment. But early in Easter a pleasant shock occurred-the Army was able to provide us with two 'l9' Sets, three '26' Sets, four Field Telephones and a Switchboard. At the same time as the new equipment arrived the radio shack moved next door into larger quarters. On Inspection Day we were again affiliated with the First Aid Display, which had its usual success. We also played an important role on the Cadet Field Day, when we showed the usefulness of R.C. in maintaining communications between the various groups involved. Our thanks go to Mr. Storr for his efforts in acquiring additional equipment, and I would like personally to thank those communica- tions Cadets whose efforts made the year so successful. Bryan Tassin, Sgt. FIRST AID This year First Aid enjoyed an enrolment of 25 Members. A new book was introduced by the St. John's Ambulance Association, making the course more difficult. As before, the Class worked hard and did extremely well in the Exam. The highlight of the year was the Display on Inspection Day. First Aid participated in a species of Grade A Westerni' Radio Communi- cations set piece with the Bren Guns adding to the excitement. The resulting combat was fierce, of course, and most of the enemy were 54 killed or wounded while charging over a pre-arranged landscape and fighting their way through wire and smoke, the butchery being com- pleted by final application of the latest Medical Skill available. My congratulations to all First Aiders who received their Certifi- cates, and the best of luck to Stene, who will be instructing next year. Tom Rigos, Major. fWe understand that of the 21 Candidates who took their Final Exam. 20 passed- Ed.l. THE SCOUTS During last year the Troop was kept going, in the absence of a Scoutmaster, by several Senior Boys, and it says much for their en- thusiasm, and that of their supporters, that there were so many boys anxious to join the Troop in September. It at once became obvious that the first requirement for the Troop was an adequate place in which to meet. With the Headmaster's approval plans were begun for the building of a new Scout Hall behind Harvey House. It was originally hoped to have it in use some time during the Spring Term, but unavoidable delays meant that it was still not completed by the end of the Summer Term, though it will probably now be ready for September. Largely because of this lack of a meeting place, the Troop has not made as much progress as had been hoped. The high-light of the year was a week's camp at Camp Barnard, near Sooke, after the end of the Summer Term. The thirteen boys who took part are to be congratu- lated on constructing a camp site which drew favourable comments from all who saw it, and on a week in which they behaved well, worked hard and accomplished much. This kind of spirit augurs well for the future. I.M. THE DEBATING SOCIETY The Debating Society has again flourished, under the enthusiastic and, to many Speakers' distress, wholehearted support of Mr. Caleb. Most Debates were held in the Memorial Hall, interspersed, in the Winter Term, were several Any Questions? sessions. Panel discus- sions Qheated arguments, on occasion? also took place in Brown Hall. Topics under survey included 'Ghosts', cThe Annexation of Canada by the U.S.A.', 'Compulsory Education' and 'The White Man's With- drawal from Africa'. Rigos, Yaryan and Monkman were always ready to say something, and Payne always ready to say nothing. However, all those who attended the Debates felt that they had at least had an evening's entertainment, and they undoubtedly benefited from the facts fand fictionsl which were bandied about. M. Woollends acted as Chairman and N. H. R. Etheridge as Secretary. N. H. R. Etheridge. 55 i THE PROJECTION CLUB J. Tassin, I. Dykes, P. Clark fPresidentl, W. Monkman, H. Pollard. PROJ ECTION CLUB The Projection Club, as usual, has carried on in the background, without much recognition of its functions. It has been a quiet year where most aspects of its activities have been concerned. We have had a wide assortment of films throughout the session that have appealed to both Seniors and Juniors. Minor alterations to the projection room have made the showings easier and more efficient than in past years. The membership of the Club has been kept to a minimum and we have admitted only one new member, Harry Pollard, the old members being B. Tassin, W. Monkman, I. Dykes and P, Clark. Thanks go to Mr. Creek for his valuable guidance, and to all mem- bers who gave so freely of their time. Peter N. E. Clark. 56 CHESS CLUB The year began with much enthusiasm among boys in the Senior Houses, but this unfortunately dwindled, so that the Competition, begun during the Spring Term, was not completed. It was possible to organize only two matches, during the Spring Term-against Shawnigan Lake School and Victoria High School. Both of these were lost to teams far stronger than our own. Boys who represented the School were Clark, Etheridge, Woollends, Montgom- ery, Adams, Stene, Hinton and Watson. I.M. ART Art in the School has had a most encouraging and productive year. Weekly activities have included sketching trips, visits to the local Art Gallery and films of various techniques in painting. Every month each boy was given a project and the best work was picked to enter the Annual Exhibition on Speech Day. The boys worked with tremendous enthusiasm in the preparation of this show, which, incidentally, was the biggest of its kind for some time. Visitors this year were able to see over 190 exhibits in various mediums - oil paintings, water colours, pastels, charcoal sketches and models of varying shapes and sizes. These filled both the Art Room and the Music Room in Harvey House. The Exhibition was also well advertised by a committee of boys who distributed posters throughout the School. It would be impossible to describe each individual exhibit, but there was a very high standard of work throughout. The Art Prizes this year went to Alan Goodin and Timothy Roberts for their outstanding work. A.L.G. THE UBRARY Thanks to the Parents and Friends of the School the Library has had a very good year. It was reorganized by volunteer Librarians, who worked ably throughout. Definite opening times were set, and a new checking system introduced. During the year Library Bulletins were issued, which resulted in a total of 2,126 books being presented. I am sure that this is a record for any one year, and the School appreciates it more than we are able to say. 57 THE LIBRARIANS E. Dobell, P. Clark, R. Webb, W. Monkman, I. Dykes, J. Palmer, A. Tiedeman. J. Tassin, H. Vlatson, Mr. P. Caleb, J. Mackid, E. Ralph. The Library was repainted in the Spring Term by the Librarians and Volunteers. No pressed men were used - a very good indication of the enthusiasm of the boys concerned. The Headmaster arranged for a large carpet to be purchased, and the quiet atmosphere of a real Library was completed by the hanging of new curtains made by Mrs. Freil. The use made of this centre has shown how very important it is that our School should have this facility in first-class order. The crowded lending-times and the silence in the room, even when it has been full of boys thumbing through volumes, have paid tribute to the apprecia- tion shown to those volunteer Librarians who have done such a fine job. The Librarians have been as follows: P. N. E. Clark, E. R. Dobell, J. C. Mackid, W. R. Monkman, M. Palmer, E. Ralph, B. deB. Tassin, H. W. Watson, R. P. Webb and I. M. Dykes. P.A.C. 58 FOUNDERS HOUSE The House has been fortunate in having Mr, Prowse as its new House Tutor. We feel that he deserves considerable credit for his enthusiasm and influence. In games the House has done exceedingly well. Founders was victorious in the Senior and Junior Rugby, the Swimming and the Senior Basketball. Many thanks must be given to Abel, who managed to stimulate basketball as a major Winter Sport in the School, To those returning I would like to say that next year offers great possibilities in all aspects of House life. I hope that through the coming year Founders will uphold the proud traditions of its past. Barry H. Cree, Captain of House. BRENTWOOD HOUSE Again our thanks this year must go to Mr. Creek and Mr. Cenge. Under their guidance the House has had one of its most successful sessions. Incidentally, Mr. Creek's and Mr. Caleb's nightly dormitory visitations have been appreciated by all. Athletically we have fared very well. After a fierce struggle we were unsuccessful in the Inter-House Rugby. The Inter-House Basketball ended with a win for the House in the Junior Game but a loss in the Senior. The House owes much to Keble and Lowe, who led their individual age groups, and to Blair, who, with the rest of us, succeeded in bringing back the Inter-House Sports Trophy. The House Cricket XI, led by Goward and Angus I, scored very well to win, and we also won the Inter-House Shooting Match, an event held for the first time this year. Many thanks to Mrs. Freil, whose interest and help were appreci- ated by all. We wish the best of luck to those returning, and hope they may uphold the high standard set throughout this year. Tom J. Rigos, Captain of House. HARVEY HOUSE The Harvey House Prefects were Wilde, Stephenson, Ifafoe, Holm and Wilt. They faced their difficult task with credit. The points for the Dormitory Shield were keenly contested in the daily inspections. The resulting tidiness in the dormitories, as well as the general good health of the boys, owes much to the constant care of Mrs. F reil, our Matron. Congratulations to C. Holm on winning the Chapman Cup for the best all-round boy in the House under 16 years. 59 The Harvey House Library, and, still more, the School Library have been very much used this year by the boys, both for reading purposes and for their work. The Encyclopaedias have been in constant demand for Social Studies and for Science essays. The Library Prize was won by Peth, with Chaworth-Musters runner-up, both these boys had read over forty books each in the last two terms, The Librarians, P. F avelle and Peth, did much useful work. Stamp-collecting was as ardent as ever, and the hobbies roorn pro- duced, from a mass of wood, paint and glue, some good models of planes and cars. The Harvey House Press Magazine was printed and circulated twice during the year. The Juniors organized and produced two variety shows, which were much enjoyed by the actors and the audiences. The prime movers in this enterprise were R. Spittal, J. Dafoe and P. F avelle.

W.T.K. 60 PARENTS' AUXILIARY The Executives held a meeting on January 25th. and it was reported that the sum of 843.00 had been raised from two cake sales. These have been quite successful in the past and it is hoped that they will continue to be so. Our goal is still set as the helping of the School Library, and we aim to hold a garden party and bazaar. We trust that the coming year will see enough parents gathered to combine efforts and bring these to a successful conclusion. Mrs. E. T. Howe, Secretary. TACOMA RELIGIOUS CONFERENCE The Annie Wright Seminary played host to this Conference, and six Boys from the School accompanied by a Master attended the week-end organized by the Pacific Northwest Independent Schools. Present were groups from many Schools in B.C. and Washington, and the Discussion Topic was Worship Those from University School played a full part in the activities of the week-end and made their presence felt in the excellent discussions. On Sunday morning was held the Chapel Service, when participants who had shown leadership were invited to assist. It is very pleasing to know that of the three boys chosen two were Canadians, both from University School. Mayhew read the lesson and Palmer carried the Canadian Flag. We are looking forward to being able to attend a similar Conference during the coming year. P.A.C. THE EUROPEAN TOUR On a hot June day ten Senior boys and two Masters left for Europe. The Tour, by DC8 Jet and aboard the R.M.S. Carinthia, began in high promise and continued in excellent companionship. The Tour was planned to cover as large a field as possible without attempting so much that nothing would be seen properly. In nine weeks eleven countries were visited and 5,000 miles covered in our small bus over continental roads, amidst continental drivers! It is, of course, impossible to record the entire story of our adven- tures 3 only, as it were, to pick out some of the many highlights of our journey. Some come immediately to mind - punting along the backs at Cambridge, climbing over the great castle at Harlech, Princes Street in Edinburgh and the Cathedral and Bishop's Palace at Wells. We received wonderful hospitality at four English Schools, who very 61 kindly opened their doors to us-Pocklington, Yorkshire, Rossall, Lancashire, Radley, Berkshire, and Dauntsey's, Wiltshire, They en- abled us to see how a School like ours is conducted in England, and we felt very much at home. We hope that we may be able to repay in some way their hospitality. After our journeyings in the United Kingdom we crossed the Channel and toured the battlefields of Flanders. At Ypres, scene of devastation and destiny, we read of Captain Harvey's courage-a record kept in St. George's Church and one which we were proud to read and record. The kindness of the people we met on our journeyings showed that the sacrifices made by the New World on behalf of the Old are not forgotten. Luxemburg and the Autobahns of Germany gave way to the scenic majesty of Switzerland- the towering Alps and deep lakes. Into Italy to Florence, Pisa and Alassio, the French Riviera, Monte Carlo, the Rhone Valley-and then our way lay to Paris, Brussels and Amsterdam. The return journey was made over the Pole to Canada at the end of a most enjoyable experience. The Masters in charge were extremely satisfied with the behaviour and bearing of the Members of the School and would certainly accompany any future tours. P.A.C. THE SCHOOL DANCE This year's School Dance, the first in three years, was a complete success, in spite of many fears to the contrary. All the arrangements for the dance were made by the Dance Committee, a group of boys from Grade IX to Grade XII. The Committee had the financial backing of the School, and the able, but not restrictive, guidance of the Headmaster and Mr. Creek. The Dance was held in Brown Hall, which had been decorated for the event most beautifully with huge baskets of flowers provided by Mrs. Timmis, and a few of the more resplendent trophies belonging to the School were on display too. The whole of Saturday, March 25th., was spent in preparing the Hall, while the kitchen staff was kept busy making up the refreshments. By 9:00 o'clock the dance was in full swing to the tunes of a very capable band. It was indeed un- fortunate that the Day Boys of Grade IX could not be invited, but as it was there was only just enough room for the remainder of the Upper School, the Staff and a few Guests of the Headmaster. Those boys who so desired invited the girls of their choice, and a number of girls from Norfolk House and St. Margaret's were invited to even the numbers. For some it was hard work preparing the details of the dance, but it was well worth the effort, and I hope it was the forerunner of many enjoyable dances to come. Robert L. Mayhew. 62 OLD BOYS' NOTES We are glad to record recent academic successes of Old Boys: ROGER STONE - Roger has been awarded one of Canada's twelve Athlone Fellowships, The award is approximately 32,500.00 per annum for three years Post-Graduate study at Oxford. D. BALLANTYNE-David, who received his Ph.D. at the Uni- versity of Maryland a year ago, has now finished a year at the Ontario Agricultural College at Guelph, where he had a Fellowship from the National Research Council. On October lst. he is to take a post with the Dominion Experimental Farm at Saanichton, V.I., where he will be Plant Physiologist. J. E. COLEMAN-John took his B.A. degree this year at U.B.C., with First Class Honours in Greek. In addition he has been awarded a S1500 Woodrow Wilson CFord Foundationj Scholarship for Greek. A career in Archaeology is planned, and he is already well on his way. E. C. LATOUR-Edward has also been successful in gaining his B.A. degree with First Class Honours in Classics. He was also awarded the U.B.C. CAhepaj Prize for Greek. We understand that previously he was in the running for a Fellowship. R. I. KINGHAM - Ian, who is on loan to the Canadian Good Roads Ass'n. from the Department of Public Works, has been awarded a S2000 Scholarship which is given by Industry through the Canadian Good Roads Ass'n. He now plans to complete his M.A. degree and has been accepted at the Graduate School at Purdue University for January, 1962. This year, for the first time in its history, Victoria College granted degrees, so it was very fitting to note that among those successful was an Old Boy, A. R. HUTCHINSON, who took his B.A. In September Robin plans to enter McGill University to take Medicine. Among Old Boys who have visited the School recently have been: M. G. HUDEC QBerkeleyj, P. R.
