COLLEGIAN, I93O February 7.--The Stratfordites were again successful in defeating the: St. Marys girls in the local gym- nasium. The game was hotly con- tested and inclined to be rough. The play opened fast and seemed to get faster. During the first half, Stratford played a good combination game and netted baskets on practically every play. The final score was Stratford 4l, St. Marys 33. February l4.-The Red and Green as group leaders, met the Kitchener girls, winners of the Kitchener, Galt and Guelph group on their own floor. The first half of the game was not particularly fast. At three quarter time the score was 25-20 for Kitchener, but our girls rallied and succeeded in bringing the score to 31-25 for their win. February l9.-The Stratford girls staged another victfry by defeating Kitchener in Stratford. The game was a struggle and Kitchener led at half time. However, Stratford over- came this lead and the final score was 42-49. This gave Stratford a lead of I3 points over Kitchener for the round.

JUNIOR WOSSA BASKET-BALL This is the first year that the school has had a junior team, and although this year's team dial not go far, perhaps next year's will. The first game of the round with Woodstock was played in Stratford. The first half of the game was very slow with the teams staying even. But in the second half, Woodstock livened up and took possession of the play. The game ended with the score 37-I6 for Woodstock, which apparently had the best team. ln the second game, the colleg- iate boys did not seem to be able to hit their stride and during the whole game, they stood no chance of winning. They were up against a better team, and the score was 69-l in favour of Woodstock. The Junior line-up: Centre--T. Milliken. Forwards-J. Gregory, B. Mor- row. Guards: G. Wright, R. Pounder. Substitutes-M. Hammond, T. Hanlan, F. Langan, W. Brenneman. THE VILLAGE SMITHY fRevised Version I Under a spreading chestnut tree A stubborn auto stands. The smith an angry man is he Vfith trouble on his hands. The carburetor seems to be The cause of all his woe. He tightens half a dozen bolts But still it doesn't go. He sits beside the road to give l-lis brain a chance to cool, And ponders on his training at The correspondence school. And then he starts his job once more And just by chance 'tis seen The cause of all his trouble is He's out of gasoline. -V. A. l-lolmes. 1.73.-
