' TORQMQMTMRMEWQMILTQF SCI-IOOLYEZIR BOOK HAMILTON AT TQRONTO HIDAY. l lil3ltlAliY lt. 19:10. At noon the students of To- ronto Normal School were freed from their usual round of duties, in order that linal preparations might be made for the reception of the llamiltonians. llowever, it was not until two oiclock that the bus from llamilton arrived at Central Y. Hy this time a large representation of the tlold and Black had Hlled the spectators' gallery of the big gymnasium. and everything was ready for the opcllillg of lloslililics. The tiirls' .lunior Basketball teams opened the program for the afternoon. Ally the time their act was completed. the girls of the tlreen and tiold had convinced everyone of their superiority by a score of 522-lo. The invaders were better in practically every depart- ment, especially in team combination. The locals showed the lack of coaching. which after all is essential in everything but a lone hand. The better team won. but the losers gave a very creditable display of that school spirit which called on them to light 'till the linal whistle blew. .Ks no change of scenery was necessary the second act commenced ere the cheers of the victors had died away. For an hour the tiirls' Senior Basketball teams provided the attraction. llamilton again emerged victorious: score -1-5-22. This time the play was much closer but the locals could not cope with their oppon- ents' tactics. Une of the Toronto players. Mae Dempster, was unfortunate in spraining her ankle during the game. Lastly, the lioys' liasketball 'teams entered the fray. Although tied at half time, the locals lost out by a score of 20-l0. Thus llamilton had carried off the honours in three straight games. lt was not because their players were of higher calibre, but because they had superior coaching. VVeary from the excitement of the sports. everyone turned with alacrity to the next event. the banquet. Activities shifted to Carlton Street l'nited Church. and there tireen. Gold. and Black mingled with St. Yalentineis Day decorations in a colourful setting for the social meeting of two sister institutions. Without unnecessary pre- liminaries the hungry were fed which after all is the primary consideration on such occasions. Lloyd Clarke, toast-master, then called upon the speakers of the function, three from Hamilton, and Dorothy Angle and Gordon McIntyre of Toronto. The last part of the day's activities took us to the Normal School itself. For an hour everyone enjoyed himself as he liked. Peace and order were restored when the chairman, Harry Henderson. called on Mr. Cringan to lead in a sing-song. In spite of his best. efforts we sang like a backwoods Sunday School , pleasing him only in Annie Laurie. The cheer leaders of both Normals then held forth for a few minutes, but everyone was anxious for the commencement of the final numbers. The chairman accordingly called on Mr. Wfhyte to welcome our guests to Toronto Normal School. Past associations with Hamilton made this a pleasant task for our Princi- pal, and his reference to himself as speaking on behalf of Hamilton made us audibly gasp until our Scottish wit discovered the joke. Dr. Mat.-Millan. Principal of Hamilton Normal. accepted the welcome on behalf of Hamilton, and spoke for a few minutes of the value of Inter-normal meets. The oratorical contest was then announced, and Miss Smith of Hamilton was called on. Her address was interesting. and well given. We expected more. however, from .Dorothy Farquaharson, Toront.o's representative, and we were not disap- pointed. For ten minutes the audience waited on her every word, and at the close burst into a roar of applause. A musical number preceded the final event of the meet-the debate. The subject of the debate was, Resolved that Newfoundland would benefit by becoming a member of the Dominion of Canada. As Hamilton had chosen the affirmative. the negative side was upheld by Mary Lee and Sinclair Hemingway of Toronto. Logical arguments brought forward by the affirmative were cleverly refuted by the negative, and at the close the decision was awarded to Toronto. Both literary events had gone to us. Tea was served for the Hamilton representatives, and the officials and executives of the different societies of Toronto Normal. Good- byes were then said. and all departed in their various ways. And so one more memorable day rolled into the past. G. S. MCINTYRE. 2925123
