BLUE AND WHITE SENIOR BASKETBALL (Continued from page 65) was justified in her trip; after a hard- fought, fast game, she took the decision with the score 37—33. Thatcher led the ray for Walkerville with 16 points. Our senior boys came through with a 24—12 victory over Assumption. Walk¬ erville was now in its stride and sound¬ ly trounced Assumption with her high- class basketball. In the next game Walkerville took Patterson in her stride in a home game by defeating her 27-23. A1 Scorgie led our Tartans with 8 points. Although tempers ran high and the game became fast and furious Walkerville emerged victorious. Kennedy entertained Walkerville in ‘he highlight game of the year. For ears the Clippers and the Tartans have lad close rival games. This is a good ex¬ ample of this rivalry. The score at the ad of the game was 25 all, and two ivertime periods had to be played in rhich Kennedy finally gained a point, :efeating the Tartans 26—25. The season ended with Walkerville at andwich, in which Sandwich won by a core of 24—21. The Team liff Rose: Cliff is playing a fine game at ■ guard. He possesses natural ability • and is very fast on his feet. Cliff is captain of the team, i ack Sherman: This was Jack’s first ■ year at Senior basketball. He and Cliff ' made a good combination. laire Fischer: Claire plays a smart game as a forward, setting up some good scoring chances. !Scorgie: This is also Al’s first year at senior basketball and he is making a i very good job at centre. - red Thatcher: Fred is a very fast- i’ breaking forward with a good eye for i- the basket. e rnie Martin: Ernie as a forward plays s an excellent game. He can be depend- i- ed upon to get his share of points. rnie Musgrave and Bill Dulmage com- I. pleted the squad. SOCIETY COLUMN (Continued from page 47) lots and lots of skating. Even the girls got a lot of fun playing a spectacular (?) hockey game. Nor was skating confined to the school rink. Many a time our junior and senior hockey teams could be found at the Arena at SEVEN O’CLOCK in the MORNING! And what hockey teams we have had this year! The junior team so far has not lost a game and the seniors have done almost as well. Congratulat¬ ions! The season was one of many dances, coming at appropriate times. The “Hie Hop” on October 19 was the first real dance of the new term. Pupils old and young came dressed informally, renew¬ ed old acquaintances and made new ones. On December 22 came the “Terpsichor- ean Strut” in which the art of dancing was displayed in all its modernity. The gym was decorated in colours of emer¬ ald green and royal purple. Larry Ben- sette provided the “Swing and Sway”. One of the most successful dances held this year in our gym was the Third An¬ nual “Gamblers’ Gambol”, sponsored by the Agora. The room was gaily decorat¬ ed in blue and white, the school colours. Flocking to the school gym at four- thirty on many an afternoon came pup¬ ils anxious to liven the school day by dancing to the music of Bill Kerrigan’s orchestra—Bill is one of our own pupils and we have been indebted to him for many delightful dances. Basketball games were enjoyed by many and to add to the entertainment we again found Bill and his many boys helping us pass the “wee hours” away. Sometimes, when Bill was unable to come, we had music supplied by the nickelodeon. Of course, there are always the fort¬ unate ones. Virginia Isaacs, Walter Lit¬ tle, Peter Crassweller and Tom Robson saw Europe—Europe as it was before the War, last summer holidays. Formerly the social activities have been climaxed by the colourful Military Ball and we are looking forward to a repetition of this outstanding event. Page Seventy-five

BLUE AND WHITE AGAIN—All Photography by LEW F. CLARKE 1030 Dougall Ave. JUNIOR BASKETBALL (Continued from page 66) Patterson 19 — Walkerville 13 The Tartans again lost to the smooth¬ working Patterson team. Walkerville put up a great showing against these conquerors of the hoop and gave them a game never to be forgotten. Doidge led the blue and white boys with 5 points. Kennedy 22 — Walkerville 18 Our boys just couldn’t find the hoop in this game, but Kennedy deserved their win after a game which saw many fouls. Sandwich 24 — Walkerville 22 Sandwich entertained Walkerville in the last game of the season and after a stubborn, hard-fought game topped Walkerville. The Team Ronny Doidge: Ron is captain of the team and can always be depended on for his share of points. Ron Evans: Ron is a forward and plays a strong defensive game. Alex Hartley: Alex plays guard and will prove to be an asset to the senior ■ team next year. Peter Ferlick: Pete is also a guard who plays aggressive basketball. Doug Kidd: Because of Doug’s height he proves to be an asset to the team. Doug plays centre. Roy Dunlop: Although Roy is one of the smallest men on the club, his fast breaks count for many points. en Rutherford: This is Ken’s first year at basketball; but it doesn’t alter the I fact that he is the team’s best for- | ward. Ken plays a steady aggressive I game. Phone 3-1974 Bill Suhan, Jim Scorgie, Osman Mc¬ Millan and Ralph Cole complete the squad. ORATORY (Continued from page 15) an oratorical contest in which ten or twelve students are entered, instead of just two or three. So, next year, let’s show that Walkerville Collegiate really has a great number of speakers of which it can boast. CADET NEWS (Continued from page 43) centuries. The fiery courageous Camer¬ on warriors have distinguished them¬ selves in battle since the Jacobite Rebel¬ lions. At the present time descendants of the original Camerons are serving with the 79th Regiment Cameron High¬ landers and the Black Watch. Any article on our 1939 Cadet Corps would be incomplete without special mention of Walter Little, our capable O.C., and Tom Robson who succeeded him for their Majesties’ visit. Our congratulations and best wishes go to Gordon McGorman, our new O.C. and Norman Crapper our new band¬ master. We feel sure they will fill their responsible positions with the smart- nes and geniality becoming our senior cadet officers. To Jim Fleming, Irwin Richards, Doug Dalgleish, Roy Dickie and Alvin Cormier of the Essex Scottish C.A.S.F., Bill Davidson, R.A.F. and Ray Little- hale, Royal Canadian Navy, cadets who have “graduated” from the ranks of our cadet corps to the Active Service Forces we extend our heartiest congratulations and best wishes. The best of luck, boys. Page seventy seven
