T was with a feeling of intense fervour and anticipation that we many eager-eyed students wended our way for the first time last September up the well-beaten path to the Normal School. Many were the joys and many the sorrows that lay ahead. But with the former alone were all our minds occupied. Of the one hundred and ninety-nine who registered the first week fourteen were boys. Shortly afterwards one boy left and it seemed for a time that this thirteenth Normal class was surely doomed. However. at Christmas one more left and two new ones arrived in the persons of Captain IJ. fampbell anfl Lieutenant R. XY. Veitch. The first social event of the year took the form of an informal tea held on the lawn. Many of our best friend- ships date from that pleasant occasion. Early in the first term we were favored by a visit from the Hon. R. H. Grant, Minister of Education and the Hon. Peter Smith, Provincial Treasurer. Their messages were encouraging and beneficial to all. A very jolly Hallow-e'en party was held in October when many for the first time visited the haunts of the ghosts, the booth of the fortune-teller and many other awe- inspiring resorts peculiar to the occasion. On December thirteenth Santa Claus called at the School on his yearly rounds. Vile were all carried back to our days of youth as the genial old gentleman presented each one with a gift off the huge Christmas tree in the Assembly Hall. The Spring terms too have not been without their social times. In spite of the hovering examination clouds, informal teas, jolly little parties and relaxations of various kinds have been indulged in. Indeed as we look back over the year,we can say, that although of work,there has been a-plenty, yet of pleasant social times we have had a goodly share. I.I.IIIiI.I.A STIRLINIZ.

Page Ten THE Athleiira 15213-21 HE quality of social efficiency is measured by its three factors, character, intelligence and initiative. Thus the school training falls under three heads, the training of the hand, the heart and the mind. The advantages of association suggest the union of these three aims as closely and effectively as possible and in no other school activity are these so perfectly blended as in good, pure, wholesome games. XN'e firmly believe that the superior stamina of the Stratford Normalites can be traced to their hearty indul- gence in sports. Early in the school year volley ball teams were or- ganized and several games were enjoyed during the sunny autumn days. Before the sun swung far south Form V launched a very successful held day. Friday afternoon was devoted to games, after which the would-be cooks reached the hearts of the boys via their stomachs. Their keen desire to help wash the dishes gave proof of this. The challenge to a tug-of-war with the collegiate was accepted and of course the Normalites won. However, both the girls' and boys' relay races were lost to the Collegiate. Our splendid football team swept all before them defeating the Collegiate by a score of 2-U. During the frosty spell our boys and girls chased the puck around the ice. The boys were defeated by both the Collegiate team, and the Normal girls. The boys' line-up was as follows: Centre, Mcl.ennang left wing, Mcl.ay3 right wing, Rennieg defence Campbell and Veitch, goal Schenck, subs., Hyde and Craig. The girls who played CLASSIC june 1921 were: centre. Miss Jacky right and left wings, Misses Wfatson and Porticeg defence, Misses Vl'alton and Hutton: goal Miss Hembly. The London Normal challenge to home-and-home games of basketball was accepted and two capable teams were chosen. The girls played girls' basketball in London and boys' basketball in Stratford. The girls' teams were, in London centre, Miss C. Hollister, Capt., Forwards, Misses McDermott and Sparling: Defence, Misses C. Seltzer and Mcllveeng subs. Misses Draper, Eaton and Park. In Stratford, Miss Hollister played centre, Misses Stirling and McDermott were forwards, Misses Todd and Mcllveen defence, and Misses jack, Goodyear, Burgess and Eaton, subs. The boys' team was: centre, Campbellg forwards McLay and Hyde: defence Rennie and Veitchgsub., Craig. In London both the Stratford teams were at a dis- advantage owing to the non-compliance with the regula- tions re height of baskets. The girls also were LIHLICCLIS- tomed to playing girls' basketball. Both games were lost to London. Affairs took a decided turn with the return games in Stratford which were played in the Y. M. C. A. gym. The Stratford girls won by a score of 13-12. How' ever, the London boys' team was too Tony for us, the score being 28-24 for London. A. GL.-XZIIQR.
