' r ix f' P THE Inter-faculty Track Meet was the centre of attraction this year, as the Inter-collegiate Meet was cancelled: but in spite of competition from the Freshman Day program keen interest was shown by the forty-four men and twenty-two women com- petitors. The meet was held on the morning of Friday, October llth, having been postponed from the previous Saturday, due to rain. The meet was dominated by the Science team, which ended United Colleges superiority after holding the men's title for six years. Science piled up sixty points, far ahead of the Engineers in second place with 29 points. United followed with 24 points and Agriculture was surprising with 21. Medicals and Arts scored 9 points and one point, respectively. The stars in the men's division were the Cohen broth- ers, Les and Shia, of Science. Each scored three firsts, Shia starring on the track in the 100, 220 and 440 yard dashes, and Les placing first in three Held events, the discus throw, shot put and pole vault. When the meet was over Wray Youmans had a long list of prospects to file for next year. When next fall comes around we hope these men will be in shape for their events as follows: For the sprints, Shia Cohen and Bob Layngg distance events, Bill Bowman, August Johnson, Nort Cassils and Phil Crampg hurdles, Bruce Jones and Ron Wilson: broad jump, Bruce Jones and Ed Andersong high jump, Jack Hodge: weight events, Les Cohen and Cam Manng pole vault, Les Cohen and Bud Malone. The meet was run off smoothly, great credit going to the officials who were got together by Wray Youmans who worked hard to put the meet over. Most of the 22 co-eds competing in the Inter-faculty Track Meet last fall must have been from Home Economics. For the second successive year the Home Eccers walked away with the meet. They missed a perfect record by losing the high jump to Stephanie Richards of Arts. Home Ec. led the field with 57 points, United College had 18, Arts and Science followed with 7 and 4 points, respectively. BILL BOWMAN. Track Conoenor Marnie Verner had a very slight edge over her team-mate Chickie Hooker in the two sprint events, but Chickie won the broad jump while Marnie was pick- ing up a third in the high jump to tie for top honors with 11 points each. Also in top place was another Home Eccer, Doris Blondal, winner of the discus throw and shot put and third in the javelin throw. Winners of the ball throw and javelin throw were Isabel Yeomans and Irene Pieper, respectively. Careful . . . don't knock down the bar.

' '1?i2fZ2- . , cr I F 1 VARSITY golfers not only enjoyed one of the most successful seasons that Manitoba has ever wit- nessed, but have also seen this ancient old Scotch game rise in our college to its rightful place as one of the major sports. The U, Golf Club, formed with a campus-wide membership, had close to two hundred students take advantage of the facilities it was able to provide as a part of this season's A.B.C. program. For the first time in Manitoba's history and unique to Canadian golf, our Varsity team was able to obtain entries in the Provincial Inter-club Compe- JIM DOAK, tion, and placed well against some of the West's finest golfers. Roy MacDonald captained the team which included such stars as Bill Corner, Bob Swanson and Herb Hartley. Every student attending the University was given an opportunity to play golf for a small sum at Tuxedo course with which our club was affiliated this season. The Fall Season opened with the HU. Championships. There were thirteen flights in the men's and women's sections for which one hundred and ten players qualified. Alex Black, nephew of Vancouver's famous pro and cousin of one of Canada's leading golfers, Ken Black, defeated Howard Bennett, Manitoba Amateur Champion, 19403 Canadian Junior titlist, 1939, in the major upset in Manitoba's golfing circles this year. Black won the McKinney Trophy on the last green when Bennett's putter faltered and let down a true Sportsman. Beth Tooley won the new Felstead Trophy when she outstroked Marion Duncan by two shots. Roy MacDonald took the University Open with Bill Corner as runner-up. The first Field Day in the history of Varsity golf wound up the season. Two trophies and thirty prizes were presented. Commerce and Home Economics won the Inter-faculty competition. Other faculties entered were Accountancy, Arts, Junior Division and St. Mary's. Forty-six golfers stayed for dinner after the field events of driving, approaching, putting and so forth. The season was kept open for three months after the snow had fallen by ten rather enthusiastic students who made history in those countries where snow falls when, equipped with skiis, clubs and black golf balls, they played a series of golf games over three of the best courses in the dead of winter in a foot of snow. A great deal of credit for such a successful season goes to Roy MacDonald. Howard Bennett, Bill Corner and Bob Swanson, who with their enthusiasm and star golfing have laid a foundation for the future of the Golf Club. Other members of the executive include: Jim Doak, president, Marion Duncan, chairman of women's golf: Pat Gallagher, secretaryg John Craig, Ed Christie, Les Rowland, and the faculty representatives.
