Sports Report The sports activities of the S.C.I. were ben¬ eficial from three standpoints—participation, enjoyment, and inter-school competition. During the football season teams were or¬ ganized and games taking up two recesses each were played. The all-star team which was chosen, proved itself in a number of games, winning all of them, including two against Goodwill High. The girls were less fortunate in their baseball games wit h Good¬ will, winning one, and losing one. In two hockey games, played against our perennial rival, the S.C.I. team triumphed both times. The boys managed to come through with a 6-5 win in a thrilling game played in Grun- thal. In a return game at the carnival, held February 17, Goodwill went down to a 6-1 defeat. Curling, as usual, captured much of the sports spotlight this year. There were seven rinks participating in the regular high school curling schedule. Again, this year a bonspiel was held in which Henry Pankratz and Ernie Toews captured the first and se¬ cond events respectively. Sports equipment was not lacking as the Student Council provided a substantial a- mount of money for that purpose. Three rugby balls and a volley ball were purchased. The school hockey team looked especially sharp this season attired in the uniforms, ac¬ quired with council funds. Looking back, it seems quite evident that sports at the S.C.I. enjoyed a successful year in 1955-56. PAGE FORTY-SEVEN

Collegian Staff Standing: Marjorie Steel, Gilbert Friesen, Edmer Reimer. Sitting: Shirley Rempel, Henrietta Reimer (editor), Mr. N. Toews, Pat Mueller. Inset: Henrietta Reimer (1st term editor). The Collegian Report It is a delight to make a mental survey of the Collegian activities of the past year. The members of the staff have so willingly con¬ tributed their time and talents that it has been a pleasure to work with them. Indus¬ triously they have been writing articles to give students a glimpse of general activities of our collegiate. Articles which have been written are as follows: editorials, general news, sports, social, and literary activities, and last but not least, anecdotes by our faith¬ ful Pat. We trust that these articles have served to give our parents and fellow- citizens a true picture of the calibre and standard of the students and school respec¬ tively. Now it is our pleasure to thank those who have supported our staff by faithfully reading the Collegian and expressing appre¬ ciation for our efforts. For a number of us in the staff it means farewell. This is the last year that we serve on a Collegian such as this. But we are confident that those who will serve on the staff in the future, shall not dis¬ appoint us. On the contrary, they shall present, each year, a bigger and better Collegian. —Henrietta Reimer PAGE FORTY-SIX

I. S. C. F. Committee Glenn Klassen, George Rieger (president), Sylvia Rieger, Mr. J. Peters. Inter-School Christian Fellowship The Inter-School Christian Fellowship of the Steinbach Collegiate Institute is part of a world-wide organization comprised of Un¬ iversity and high school students, student nurses, and student teachers under the lead¬ ership of a large and capable staff. The aim of the Fellowship, “To know Christ and to make Him known”, sets the pace for its various activities. The importance of personal quiet time— concentrated Bible reading and prayer — and group Bible study, is emphasized as vital to knowing Christ. To make Him known, we are encouraged and instructed in our daily walk and talk to reflect Christ, that it may be said of us, as it was of Peter and John, “and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus.” As a group of thirty to fifty, we have met weekly on Wednesday after four. Our pro¬ gram has included guest speakers, panel discussion, talks by fellow students, and a series of student-led Bible studies of the gospel of St. Luke, for which we divided into smaller groups. We have generally closed our meeting by separating into small groups for prayer. Special events on our calendar were the fall social, complete with games, singing, testimonies and chili-con-carne, and a tally- ho, followed by a wiener roast in the snow. All students are invited to share in the aims, activities, and beliefs of the I.S.C.F. PAGE FORTY-EIGHT
