Senior Rugby T THE beginning of the official rugby season, coaches of the Edmonton High Schools held a meeting and decided to introduce a new type of ugby in the schools, namely, the six-man game. This made possible the entry f more high schoo ls in the league because only one-half the former expense muld be entailed in fielding a team. The first game of the season for the Seniors was against Eastwood. It was good game, but the opponents proved too powerful and we were defeated to tie tune of 12-6. The next game was probably the best ever played. Opponents this time rere from Scona, who later won the cup. In the third period Bradshaw re- eived the ball from Greenough and raced within ten yards of the enemy’s oal, when the referee blew the whistle, claiming Bradshaw had his foot out f bounds. That story is still doubted strongly by those Westmount students dio saw the incident. Final score: 8-0 for Scona. Tech could not field a team for the final game, so the boys from our cam- us were given the decision.

Junior Rugby A BOUQUET to our Juniors! They turned in the best performance West- mount has seen in several years. They came so close to winning the cup that we thought it was ours ; Perhaps that was the trouble! At any rate they did tie with Scona for second place. Many thanks, lads, for your gallant ef¬ forts on the field of battle! The first game was rather a heartbreaker, being defeated by Vic to the tune of five points. The next two games were an entirely different story for they defeated Scona and Eastwood respectively with comfortable margins. The following game vs. Tech was perhaps the toughest of the season, but they did prove too much for the Tech lads, defeating them by eight points. In the last game of the season the Juniors were perhaps a little too con¬ fident, for they fell prey to Sep’s strong offensive. The final score read just one point the wrong way, and so they were defeated. It would be, perhaps, fitting to mention here that W estmount is severely handicapped in that we have no professional coaching. Both Mr. Conquest and Mr. McNaught have done splendid jobs with their respective departments, but that is not enough. We have an abundance of splendid material at Westmount, but it needs expert and skilled handling before we can hope to have our name inscribed on any cups. Need conditions always be thus? Or will the time come when Westmount can field trained and skilled teams due to expert coach¬ ing? We hope it will—-don’t you?
