The fact that Vaughan has won both senior and junior rugby championships two years in successionga fact never before accomplished in any high school league in Ontario-is alone enough to put the school in a prominent place on the sports map. but add to this the fact that the gymnastic championship was also won for the second consecutive year, and it is clearly seen that these meritorious and outstanding achievements claim for her a high and enviable position in the realm of sport. The winning of these three championships. raises the total of consecutive interschool championships won to seven. This is indeed a fine record, and it has only been possible through the line co-operation shown between the staff and pupils. The coaches could have been of the very best, and the teams composed of the very best players, but they would never have achieved their success had not these two factors been welded together by that spirit of co-operation. Howver. in winning these inter-school championships. the intra-mural program was in no way neglected. During no previous year at Vaughan, have so many students taken part in Athletics. Fololwing last years lead, inter-form leagues were organized in Rugby, Basketball, Hockey and Gymnastics and plans are being made for Track and Field competition. Thus, with such a tine program and spirit in the school, there can be but one outcomevsuccess-and surely the results this year cannot be counted anything but highly successful. 5, vw ' ff Z -. . i - .-121' f I -2 7.

Pa ge 50 ACTA STVDEXTIUM INTERSCHOOL Under the able direction of Mr. Nose- worthy our debating team of Kenric Marshall and Spencer Piper won the debating competition for the County of York , thereby bringing another cham- pionship to Vaughan Road. ,The subject of the debates was: Resolved that government control of armaments is the most practical and desirable plan under present world con- ditions for the promotion of world peace . Upholding the affirmative side of this question our loquacious team defeated in quick succession York Memorial: Earl Haig: Uxbridge. 'tResolved that there are more prac- tical and desirable means of preventing DEBATING international war than by government control of the manufacture of arma- ments , was the subject allotted for the semi-final and final debates. To prove their versatility this inimitable pair defeated Etobicoke defending the affirmative and then entering the final against Long Branch the continuation schools' champions, sucessfully defended the negative side. The debaters feel indebted to Mr. Noseworthy for the hours he spent with them and without whose support they would not have been so successful also Mr. Evans and Mr. Mclieown for their kind assistance. 110-11 3-B DRAMATICS This year the girls of 3B decided to try their hand at dramatics. Consee quently the schedule for the English periods was arranged so that one Friday each month would be set aside for this purpose. The subjects of the plays chosen by the groups, seven in number, were varif ous: Canadian History,love,comedy, and mystery. In spite of the fact that girls met with all the inconveniences of amateurs and had no 'help from the teacher, the performances were quite successful and in many cases a good deal of acting ability was shown.
