Perhaps with the addition of a gymnasium in the near future, this interest will soar to an even greater height. The first big event of the sports season was the “Little World Series” between fourth year and col¬ legiate. Fourth year defeated collegiate 5-4 in the finals to win the interhouse championship. With ■baseball concluded, a schedule was set up for an intersection, six-man touch football league, with XH-1 claiming the spoils. This same team played two games with the Fort Garry champions, second year Arts, each team winning a game. At the same time Dick Lennox, of XII-3, was acclaimed golfing champion of United College. The collegiate curling bonspiel was once again a great success. The winning rink comprised Don Craw (skip), Johanne Peterson, Ron Simonite and Dean Halstead. (A novelty event between the faculty team, Dean Halstead (skip), Mr. Tomlinson, Mr. Rutherford and Mr. Longman, and the students’ team, Keith Armstrong (skip), Bob Hazell, Bob Wilson and Len Danchuk certainly deserve a lot of credit for their fine efforts in organizing the ’sped. Another popular event in the department of ath¬ letics was the collegiate bowling league. The winning team was captained by Bob Wilson and comprised Joan Speed, Larry Kussin, and anchor man Len Dan chuk. The winners of the consolation series con¬ sisted of Joan Plummer, Martha Travers, Dennis Hug- gard and Dave Gourley. Simone Cohen and Len Danchuk were the high average bowlers. The great success of this league can be attributed to the hard work of the bowling convener, Andy Totin. Without a doubt, this year’s edition of the boy’s collegiate basketball team was the finest ever. The “Red and White Machine” defeated St. Paul’s College in three games to win the Private Schools champion¬ ship and the right to enter the Provincial High School Basketball Tournament. Here the team was elimi¬ nated in a close game by the eventual winners, Isaac Newton. Members of the team were: Bill Novak (captain), Dave Drybrough, Brian Aikins, Larry Kussin, Dennis Halford, George Mitchell, George Phillips, Dave Smith, Gary Swan, Glen Coopsr, Gerry MuSker, Ted Franco, and Frank Wiener. The team was coached by Bob Hazell, with Mr. Tomlinson as manager. In closing this report special thanks should be given to the members of the athletic committee, Cliff Rodin (secretary), Gary Swan, Bcfo Sloane, Russ Dumka, Ken Platen, Andy Totin, George Mitchell, Les Marks, and to Mr. Tomlinson, whose supervision and experience helped us out in our dire moments of need. With these final words, we wind up the athletic year of ’54-’5S—“Good luck, farewell, and God bless MICHAEL KACHMAR, Athletic Chairman. Page Thirty-four
