EDITORIAL 

Once  again  the  Black  and  Red  has  to  be  curtailed  on 
account  of  lack  of  paper,  which  means  that  many  pictures 
and  matters  of  general  interest  have  to  be  omitted.  The  only 
good  feature  about  this  is  that  we  shall  be  able  to  print  a 
greater  number  of  copies  than  we  have  had  for  some  years. 
Now,  that  all  of  the  Old  Boys  have  returned  from  Overseas, 
we  shall  endea\-our  to  make  it  possible  for  a  much  greater 
number  of  them  to  receive  a  copy. 

To  the  Senior  Boys  who  are  lea\'ing  us — some  of  whom 
we  shall  miss  \ery  much — we  con\"ey  our  good  wishes  for 
their  success  in  whatever  acti\ity  they  may  undertake  and 
we  hope  that  in  the  years  to  come  they  will  look  back  on 
their  time  si)ent  here  with  at  least  some  pleasant  memories. 

We  note  with  regret  the  passing  of  old  friends:  The  Rev. 
W.  W.  Bolton,  our  last  surviving  Founder,  passed  away  at 
Tahiti  on  July  --^Sth,  1940.  at  the  age  of  88  years. 

Lieut.  Commander  W.  A.  B.  Garrard.  M.B.E.  (1909-1916), 
died  at  Shaughnessy  Militay  Hospital  as  a  result  of  war  in- 
juries. He  served  as  Executive  Officer  on  the  ill-fated  Cor- 
vette H.M.C.S.  "Weyburn"  which  was  torpedoed  and  sunk 
in  the  Mediterranean  Sea. 

Clifford  Russell  Bales,  B.A.,  who  joined  the  School  last 
September  as  Science  Master,  ])assed  away  on  July  11th  at 
Winnipeg. 

To  their  hjxed  ones  we  extend  our  heartfelt  >\  m])athv.

Last  September  we  welcomed  to  the  Staff",  Mr.  C.  Russell 
Bales,  B.A.,  as  Science  Master.  Unfortunately,  in  December 
Mr.  Bales  had  to  resign  on  account  of  his  failing  health.  We 
are  indeed  grieved  to  hear  of  his  death.  While  not  entirely 
unexpected,  we  had  high  hopes  some  measure  of  recovery 
would  have  been  found  possible  in  the  case  of  a  man  so  young. 
Mr.  F.  W.  Harvev,  M. A.,  took  over  Mr.  Bales'  work  until  June. 


We  are  gratef-al  to  Mr.  W  IT  Loureiro  for  presenting  and 
endowing  a  Plaque  in  memory  of  Percy  E.  Dawson  (191?- 
1920).  The  Plac|ue  will  perpetuate  the  names  of  the  boys  who 
win  the  Junior  Championship  (Marpole  Cup)  on  Sports  Day. 
Dawson  lost  his  life  in  1939  and  was  the  winner  of  the  Cup  in 
1918. 


A  Conlirmation  Service  was  held  at  St.  Luke's  on  Thurs- 
day, ALiy  8th.  A  large  congregation  attended  the  Service  at 
which  Beattie,  Bigelow,  Brown,  Campbell,  Hodgkinson,  King- 
ham,  Mitchell,  Myers,  Parker,  Pearson,  Read,  Smith  I,  Sundt 
T,  Shanks,  Sletmoe,  W'estwood  and  Willard  were  confirmed  by 
the    Lord   Bishop  of  British  Columbia.    The  candidates  were 


presented  by  the  Headmaster  after  which  the  Bishop  gave  a 
very  im])ressive  address  whicli  will  long  be  rememl)ered  l)y 
the  bovs. 


We  are  grateful  to  j.  C.  Currie  (1929-1932).  and  to  A. 
Miller  (192r)-19.S()).  for  the  gift  of  books  which  they  made  to 
the  School   Librar\ . 


The  41st  Founders'  i3ay  was  observed  at  the  School  as 
usual  on  October  Tth.  For  the  benefit  of  the  new  boys,  the 
Headmaster  gave  an  account  of  the  Founding  of  the  School 
and  its  achievements  through  the  years.  He  stressed  in  some 
detail  the  ideals  of  the  l*"ounders,  ])articularly  to  what  had 
been  achieved  by  the  Old  Boys  of  the  School  in  the  matter  of 
W  ar  Service,  and  expressed  the  hope  that  the  present  boys 
would  in  due  time  be  worthy  successors,  whether  in  fighting 
the  battles  of  i)eace  or  war. 


On  X^ovember  11th  the  Armistice  Day  Service  was  held 
at  10:45  in  the  Front  Hall.  The  Headmaster  conducted  the 
service  which  was  attended  by  all  the  boys  and  members  of 
the  staft.  Captain  Harvey's  last  letter  to  the  boys  in  1914  was 
read,  as  well  as  the  names  of  those  who  made  the  supreme 
sacrifice  in  the  two  wars.  After  the  usual  prayers  and  inter- 
cessions, the  School  \\  reath  was  laid  on  the  Honour  Roll  by 
Bryn-Jones. 

The  Service  concluded  at  11:00  o'clock  with  the  sounding 
of  the  Last  Post  by  the  trum])eters  of  the  Cadet  Corps,  after 
which  the  bovs  filed  past  the  Honour  Roll,  leaving  by  the 
front  door.

It  was  witli  pnifdiuid  regret  that  the  news  of  the  deatli 
of  the  Rev.  W  ilHam  \\a>hin,i;t()ii  Bolton,  ALA.,  reached  us 
hist  January  l)y  means  of  an  article  which  aj)i)eared  in  the 
Pacific  Island  Monthly  in  which  the  work  of  Air.  T.olton  at 
Tahiti  w^as  referred  to. 

Althoui^h  so  far  away,  he  always  corres])<)nded  with  us 
and,  up  to  the  last,  was  vitally  interested  in  whate\er  was 
being  achieved  at  the  School. 

His  most  recent  contribution  to  the  I'lack  and  Red  was 
the  "Foreword"  which  he  wrote  for  the  1!»4.")  edition.  .\t  the 
some  time  he  wrote  the  Hea(lma>ter  a  letter  desii^natinj;  his 
Athletic  Tro]:)hies  to  the  School. 

William  Washington  Bolton,  Al..\.,  was  born  in  IHoS  in 
the  County  of  Staffordshire,  England.  He  went  to  the  Caius 
College,  Cambridge,  in  18?(i  and,  after  an  outstanding  athletic 
career  there,  took  his  B.A.  degree  in  1880.  In  1881  he  was  or- 
dained by  the  Bishop  of  Lichfield  and  for  the  next  three  vears 
held  a  curacy  at  Stoke-on-Trent.  The  following  year  he  came 
out  to  AToosomin,  Saskatchewan,  Canada,  as  a  Alissionarv  and 
remained  there  until  1887  when  he  was  appointed  Rector  of 
St.  I'aul's  Esquimau.  It  wa-  at  this  time  that  he  was  induced 
to  take  over  St.  Paul's  School  at  Es(|uima!t,  which  he  operated 
until  1890,  when  he  became  Rector  of  the  Church  of  St.  Alary 
The  A'irgin  at  San  Francisco  where  he  remained  till  1898. 

In  1894  he  secured  leaxe  of  absence  fi  om  that  Diocese  in 
order  to  undertake  an  exploration  expedition  on  \'ancou\ei 
Island  under  the  auspices  of  the  Dailv  Colonist. 

In  1898  he  opened  a  small  schcjol  >m  Belcher  A\enue  in 
Victoria  and  remained  there  until  1906  when  he  joined  Air.  J. 
C.  Barnacle  in  founding  L'ni\ersity  School.  He  w^as  closely 
associated  w'ith  the  School  as  Warden  until  1920  when  he  left 
for  the  South  Pacific  to  act  as  Ins])ector  of  Schools  for  the 
N^ew  Zealand  Government. 

In  1925  he  returned  to  L'nixersity  School  as  Lleadmaster, 
which  position  he  held  until  1928  when  he  again  left  for  the 
South  Pacific  to  collect  historical  material  for  the  French 
Covernment  in  which  work  he  was  engaged  until  the  time  of 
his  death. 

Air.  Bolton  was  loved  and  resjjccted  by  all  who  knew  him 
or  who  had  any  contacts  with  him.  Xow  he  has  passed  on  to 
his  rest,  but  the  things  he  stood  for — gentlemanly  conduct  and 
good  manners;  gocjd  sportsmanship  and  athletic  ability  be- 
cause of  good  ]:»hysical  condition — will  alwavs  remain  as  a 
vital  part  of  our  School  tradition.  '  G.H.S.

SPEECH  DAY 

The  41st  Annual  S])eech  Day  was  held  on  Friday,  June 
•<?(),  when  the  \'en.  Archdeacon  \V.  C.  \\'estern  addressed  the 
visitors  and  bcjys  and  ])resented  the  ])rizes  for  the  year. 

The  Headmasted  welcomed  a  large  gathering  of  parents 
and  friends,  some  of  whom  had  come  from  California,  Seattle, 
Vancouver, Calgary  and  Edmonton.  The  ceremony  was  opened 
by  prayer  and  reading  of  the  Scripture,  after  which  he  report- 
ed on  the  School  activities  during  the  year.  He  stated  that  the 
attendance  had  been  well  maintained,  that  the  boys  taking  the 
Departmental  Examinations  last  year  had  made  a  good  show- 
ing, commented  on  all  the  various  forms  of  activity  in  which 
the  boys  had  taken  part  and  delivered  a  message  of  farewell 
to  those  who  would  not  be  returning.  He  reported  that  the 
activities  of  the  Cadet  Corps  had  been  very  encouraging,  hav- 
ing been  favourably  commended  by  the  Inspecting  Officer  on 
each  occasion  wdien  an  Ins])ection  had  been  held.  Mention  was 
made  of  the  fact  that  the  School  team  entered  in  the  R.M.C. 
Shooting  Competition  last  year  had  gained  first  place  in  the 
Province  over  all  the  B.C.  Schools;  also  that  this  year,  owing 
to  the  lifting  of  war-time  restrictions,  recreational  shooting- 
had  been  engaged  in  and  that  all  participating  had  won  their 
Marksman  Badge  and  that  ten  had  won  their  Expert  Badge. 
Boxing  had  been  resumed  during  the  Spring  Term  and  the 
Junior  and  Intermediate  boys  made  a  good  showing  in  the 
"finals.  A  new  record  (19  ft.  1  in.)  had  been  made  in  the  Inter- 
mediate Broad  Jump. 

The  Headmaster  then  introduced  and  welcomed  the  guest 
speaker,  the  A'en.  Archdeacon  \V.  C.  Western,  who  spoke 
mainlv  to  the  boys,  reminding  them  of  the  purpose  of  School 
life,  of  the  benefits  which  they  had  received  at  University 
School,  of  the  tasks  which  lay  ahead  of  them  in  a  wnder  world 
and  of  their  duty  to  put  into  practice  the  lessons  which  they 
had  learned  at  School.

SPORTS  DAY 

The  Annual  School  Sports  were  held  on  June  Tth.  this 
being  the  forty-first  anniversary  of  the  event.  Although  the 
weather  was  threatening  in  the  morning,  the  rain  held  oft  until 
just  after  the  last  prize  had  been  presented. 

Competition,  especially  in  the  Open  events,  was  very 
keen  ;  the  record  for  the  School  Relay  Race  was  equalled  and 
that  for  the  Intermediate  I^ong  Jump  was  broken. 

About  six  hundred  guests,  parents,  Old  Boys  and  friends 
of  the  School  attended.  After  the  first  half  of  the  programme, 
tea  was  served  in  the  School  Gymnasium. 

After  the  last  event,  the  visitors  and  the  boys  gathered 
round  the  School  Steps  and  the  Headmaster  welcomed  the 
guests  and  introduced  to  them  Brigadier  F.  X.  Cabeldu.  an  Old 
Boy  of  the  School,  who  was  to  present  the  prizes.  Brigadier 
Cabeldu  spoke  to  the  assembled  company,  particularly  the 
boys,  on  the  value  of  physical  fitness  in  the  everyday  tasks  of 
life,  drawing  u\>nn  his  experiences  in  France  and  Holland  for 
proof  ot  his  assertions.    ^Ir.  F.  E.  Winslow\  Chairman  of  the

The  Clul)  \\a>  founded  in  Ifir^.  At  that  time  most  of  the 
members  were  Masters  of  the  School.  In  more  recent  years, 
the  Club  has  been  largely  comprised  of  not  only  Masters  of 
the  School  l)ut  of  Old  Bovs  and  sometimes  i)arents  of  Old 
Boys. 

Among  the  original  meml)ers  were  J.  C.  I'arnacle.  F.  .\. 
Sparks.  \\  R.  lU-nnett.  F.  H.  B.  Champain.  j.  Wenman  and 
A.  G.  Tracy.  These  names  are  well  known  in  Cricket  circles

the  \\'ar  of  l<):^f")-194:5. 

The  Club  competed  in  the  League  fixtures  from  1912  to 
1940.  During  the  War  years  this  became  impossible  but  now 
the  Club  is  again  regularly  organized  and  functioning  as  in 
the  ])ast. 

There  is  a  \ery  simi)le  Constitution.  Members  of  the 
Club  are : 

1.  Present  and  Pa>t   Masters.

to  insure  a  win,  1)ut  to  give  such  a  friend  an  afternoon's  en- 
joyment. 

.").  The  Captain  of  the  Club  is  one  of  the  present  Cricket 
playing  Masters  of  the  School.

CRICKET,  1947 

With  nt)  less  than  eight  of  last  year's  side  available,  pros- 
pects for  the  season  were  promising.  O.  B.  Morgan  was  elected 
captain  and  G.  D.  Morant  vice-captain. 

Six  fixtures  were  played,  three  of  which  were  won,  two 
lost  and  one  drawn.  Shawnigan  Lake  School  were  defeated 
tw^ice,  while  games  with   Brentwood  College  w^ere  divided. 

The  bowling  was  strong  with  Morant  and  Alorgan  bear- 
ing the  brunt,  and  Shaw  and  Bryn-Jones  being  very  success- 
ful on  occasion.  Morant  took  22  wickets  for  93  runs  for  an 
average  of  4.22,  while  Morgan  took  15  for  68  for  a  4.53  average. 

The  loss  of  Baker  early  in  the  season  weakened  the  bat- 
ting somewhat,  but  even  so,  this  department  was  weak,  and 
some  players,  from  whom  runs  were  expected,  failed  com- 
pletely. Morgan  alone  averaged  over  10.  In  the  six  matches 
he  made  174  runs,  and  being  not  out  on  three  occasions  he 
averaged  58,  and,  as  far  as  batting  was  concerned,  carried  the 
side. 

The  Clayton  Cup  was  won  this  year  by  Morgan's  team. 

The  bat  presented  by  the  University  School  "Incogs"  to 
the  best  all  round  cricketer  in  the  School  was  won  by  Morgan 
and  seldom,  if  ever,  has  there  been  a  more  worthy  recipient  of 
this  award.  Morgan  also  won  a  bat  presented  by  the  School 
for  making  50  runs  in  a  1st  XI  match.  Shaw,  who  performed 
the  same  feat  against  Brentwood  last  year,  was  also  presented 
Avith  a  bat.  This  year  a  special  prize,  a  cricket  ball,  presented 
by  Mr.  \^  H.  Loureiro.  an  Old  Boy,  to  the  best  bowler  in  the 
School,  was  gained  by  Morant  who,  indeed,  is  the  best  bowler 
the  School  has  seen  for  manv  a  year. 

Xo-new  colours  were  awarded  and  the  team  for  the  season 
was:  O.  B.  Morgan  (capt.),  G.  D.  IMorant  (vice-capt.),  J.  D.  H.

1st  XI  MATCHES 

School  vs.  Oak  Bay  C.  C. 

The  School  opened  the  season  ag^ainst  a  fairly  stri>ng"  side 
from  Oak  Bay  C.C.  Morgan  led  the  bowlers  with  four  wickets 
for  29  runs.  Morgan  also  batted  nicely  and  was  undefeated 
with  41.  Clifford  I.  going  in  first,  played  a  most  useful  innings 
and  showed  promising  form,  bvit  the  rest  of  the  School  batting 
was  feeble.  A  drawn  game  resulted.

School  vs.  Brentwood  College 


The  onlv  School  bowler  to  keep  a  length  was  Shaw,  who 
took  four  for  nine.  The  School  fielding  was  slovenly  and 
Brentwood  eventually  made  48,  14  of  which  w^ere  byes.  The 
School  batting,  on  a  wicket  that  was  admittedly  very  poor. 
was  shocking,  and  the  side  was  out  for  10.  which,  it  is  thought, 
is  the  lowest  total  ever  made  by  the  1st  XI.

School  vs.  Sh.awnig.^n  Lake  School 

The  School,  batting  first,  ^tarted  fairly  well  but  a  rot  set 
in  which  was  only  stopped  by  a  partnership  between  Morgan 
and  ]^.Iorant  of  43  runs.  The  innings  closed  for  102  which  was 
far  better  than  at  one  time  seemed  possible.  Morgan's  innings 
was  an  invaluable  one  and  chanceless.  Shawnigan,  with  the 
exception  of  Relton,  batted  feebly.  Morant  took  five  wickets 
for  five  runs  and  Tones  three  for  seven,  and  the  School  won  by 
74  runs.

CHARACTERS  OF  THE  1st  XI 

MORGAN  (Capt.)^Developed  splendidly  w'th  the  bat  and  had  a 
Lfood  season.  Strong  on  the  off  side,  had  a  oood  defence,  but  his 
leg  :ride  play  is  weak  as  yet  and  he  is  too  charitable  to  balls 
short  of  a  length.  A  very  useful  bowler,  and  sound  in  the  field. 
As  a  captain  he  was  keen  and  intelligent;  seldom  has  the  School 
side  been  as  well  handled.  He  has  a  genuine  interest  in,  and  a 
love  for  cricket  and  will  be  a  credit  to  the  gaine. 

]^.IORAXT  (Vice-Capt.) — Had  another  splendid  season  as  a  bowler, 
turning  the  ball  from  the  off  and  keeping  a  length.  No  opposing 
school  batsman  was  able  to  play  him,  and  his  figures  for  the 
seasoi!  do  him  credit  and  are  a  just  reward  for  keen  and  con- 
sistent play.  Enthusiastic  but  none  too  reliable  in  the  field.  A 
weak  batsman. 

ERYN-JONES — Possessed  style  and  the  strokes  but  was  far  too 
passive  and  lethargic  and  was  once  again  a  failure  with  the  bat. 
Proved  on  occasion  that  he  could  bowl  but  was  not  interested 
in  this  departiTient  of  the  game.  Fair  in  the  field  but  lacked  the 
vital   enthusiasm. 

SHAW — Did  not  have  a  good  season  with  the  bat  and  paid  the  pen- 
alty for  inadequate  defence.  Has  a  good  eye  and  can  score  fast 
on  occasion.  Started  the  season  well  with  the  ball  but  was  by 
no  means  consistent.  Keen  and  active  in  the  field.  Is  enthusiastic 
and  will  yet  do  well. 

BAKER — Very  keen  and  a  most  useful  member  of  the  side  in  all  de- 
partments of  the  game.  His  injury  in  mid-season  was  a  great 
loss. 

CLIFFORD  I — Made  few  runs  but  came  on  considerably  with  the 
bat.  He  is  developing  an  adequate  defence,  and,  with  physique, 
the  runs  will  come.  Active  in  the  field,  possesses  the  necessary 
keenness,  and  continues  to  show  real  promise. 

COX — Very  much  improved  with  the  bat.  Has  some  good  shots  in 
front  of  the  wicket  and  times  the  ball  well  on  the  leg  side.  His 
footwork  is  faulty,  but  when  he  has  learnt  to  play  back  properly 
he  should  make  runs.  Rather  slow  in  the  field  and  lacking  in 
anticipation. 

SHIPLEY  I — Made  a  promising  beginning  as  a  wicket-keeper  though 
really  too  big  a  man  for  that  position.  Keen  and  willing  at  all 
times.  Too  passive  with  the  bat  at  present,  but  with  increased 
confidence  may  yet  do  well. 

\\'HITTOME — Somewhat  improved  with  the  bat  but  never  came  off. 
His  bowlir.;.:  lacked  fire  and  was  too  often  short  of  a  length. 
Uncertain  in  the  field. 

DUKE — A  weak  batsman,  he  showed  little  improvement  on  last  year's 
form.  Quick  and  alert  in  the  field  he  caught  some  good  catches 
at  backward  point. 

COTTER — A  hard  hitter  with  a  good  eye  but  nothing  in  the  way  of 
defence.  A  very  useful  fielder  at  cover  from  which  position  his 
throwing  was  very  fast  and  accurate.  An  uncertain  catch.

RUGBY  FOOTBALL,  1946-47 

The  194(>--i:?  season  was  an  unfortunate  one  in  many  res- 
l)ects.  The  hardness  of  the  g-round  until  kite  in  the  Christmas 
term,  and  the  many  miner  injuries  sutTerL-d  hy  phiyers  in  \  ital 
positions  pre\-ented  the  ^ide  from  rounchng-  into  shajje.  in 
addition,  the  team  wa->  weak  behind  the  scrum,  and  while 
some  improxement  tool;  place  a>  the  season  adxanced,  there 
was  a  noticeable  lack  of  cohesion  and  thrust  to  the  end. 

Of  the  ele\en  match.'s  i)laycd  liy  the  l>t  X\'.  four  were 
■won,  six  lost  and  one  drpwn. 

Colours  were  awarded  to  I.  L.  W'hittome,  K.  W.  l-Jen- 
nett.  F.  E.  S.  Atkins,  }  O.  MtithcrMll,  I.  1).  H.  Brvn- Jones, 
R.  C.  Harrison  and  D.'l.  McXeil. 

The  official  team  for  the  season  was  as  follows:  P.  ^l. 
Perram  (Capt.),  C.  1).  Morant  (Vice-Capt.),  R.  W.  Duncan, 
T.  D.  H.  Bvm-Iones.  F.  E.  S.  Atkins,  J.  O.  Mothersill,  D.  J.

The  "-^nd  W  ])layed  live  matche-.  two  of  which  were  won, 
one  lost  and  two  drawn.  Some  talent  was  noticed  in  the  side 
but.  in  the  main,  the  calibre  wa>  low.  Shaw.  Pritchard,  Mor- 
row. Davison  and  Kilgour  were  the  most  outstanding  players. 

The  most  encourai-ing"  feature  of  School  football  this 
vear  was  the  wealth  of  ])romise  and  the  keenness  of  the  Colts, 
who  rang-ed  in  weight  between  10.")  pounds  and  I'M)  pounds. 
X^ine  matches  were  played  and.  although  the  team  was  almost 
invariablv  heavily  outwughed,  three  were  won.  four  h^st  and 
two  drawn.  Clifford  I  cnptained  the  side  with  enthusiasm  and

FIRST  FIFTEEN  MATCHES 

School  vs.  Victoria  High  School  (Golds) 

The  season  opened  on  Oct.  29th  at  Mctoria  High  Scho.l. 
the  School  defeating  a  weak  High  School  team  bv  a  goal,  a 
penalty  goal,  and  three  tries   (IT  points)   to  0. 

Rain  fell  during  the  early  stages  and  play  was  largely  of 
a  forward  nature  throughout.  The  School  pack  were  superior 
to  their  opponents  and  controlled  the  game  from  the  start. 

Three  tries  were  scored  in  the  first  half,  one  by  Duke, 
and  two  by  McXeil.  who  showed  speed  and  elusiveness.  Mor- 
ant  failed  to  convert  on  oil  three  occasions.  After  the  change- 
over Morant  was  successful  from  a  penalty  after  a  period  of 
steady  pressure  by  the  School  for^vards.  The  School  backs 
hnd  many  opportunities  but  chances  were  ruined  by  faulty 
handling  and  late  passing.  The  final  try  was  scored  by  Shaw 
who  was  quick  to  fall  on  the  ball  after  the  forwards  had 
dribbled  t)ver.    Morant  converted  and  the  School  won  IT-O. 

Of  the  School  backs,  Bennett  made  a  fair  beginning  under 
difificult  conditions  at  outside  half,  while  McXeil  showed 
definite  ability.  Atkins,  Harrison  I  and  Duncan  were  the  ])ick 
of  the  forwards. 

School  vs.  Oak  Bay  High  School 

Little  good  football  was  seen  when  the  School  defeated 
Oak  Bay  High  School  by  the  odd  trv  in  three.  Both  sets  of 
forwards  played  spirited  but  unintelligent  football,  and  the 
backs  were  badly  served. 

Oak  Bay  had  a  decided  advantage  during  the  first  half  and 
used  a  strong  wind  to  effect.  The  School  seldom  looked  dan- 
gerous but  nevertheless  opened  the  scoring  against  the  run  of 
the  play.  McXeil  was  responsible  for  thi^  try  when  he  took  a 
pass  in  midfield  and  ran  strongly  to  outdistance  a  poorlv 
placed  defence.  ^Torant  failed  to  conxert.  The  High  School 
soon  equalized  when,  after  a  period  of  heavy  pressure,  one  of 
their  players  beat  Badda  to  a  loose  ball,  gathered,  and  fell 
over  to  score.  The  trv  was  not  converted  and  the  score  at 
half  time  ^\■as  '^-'^. 

The  second  half  was  all  School  but  the  backs  finished 
poorly,  the  High  Scho(.l  tackling  was  keen,  and  it  was  not 
until  nearly  full  time  that  Cook  scored  the  winning  try  at  :he 
flag.  Shaw's  attempt  to  convert  was  charged  down  and  the 
School  won  fi-3. 

The  School  backs,  with  Byrn-Jones  absent  and  Perram 
only  semi-fit,  were  by  no  means  impressive;  the  forwards 
worked  fiard  and  held  their  own.

School  vs.  Brextwood  College 

This  j;anic  was  i»lavcd  at  Brentwood  and  resulted  in  a 
win  for  the  home  team  l>y  two  g-oals  a.id  two  tries  (  l(i  points) 
to  a  i)enalty  o^oal  ('^  i^oin'ts). 

With  J'erram.  their  captain,  on  the  injured  list,  and  s^rcat- 
ly  outvveii^hed.  the  School  were  hard  ])ressed  from  the  stai  t. 
Early  in  the  <rame  I^cnnett,  the  Scho(')I  outside  half,  was  in- 
jured and  thouj^h  he  remained  on  the  iield  until  h.tlf-time  he 
was  a  passenger. 

Brentwood  pla\i(l  hurtling-  foothall  during  the  first  haU' 
and  their  ])acks  were  always  dangerous.  The  School  tackli.ig, 
however,  was  good,  and  hne  work  by  Bryn-Jones,  McXeil  ;ind 
Badda  s:.ved  them  on  many  occasions.  Persistent  attack 
broug-ht  its  reward,  h</wever,  and  Brentwood  eventually 
sct>red  a  well  deserxed  try  which  was  goaled  and  tln-N-  led  .)-0 
at  the  interval. 

Bennett  did  not  reUirn  to  the  game  after  half-time,  and 
Brentwood  >porting-ly  dro]jped  a  man  to  e\en  up.  The  School 
forwards  had  played  hard  but  were  no  match  for  the  ooposing- 
pack  who  controlled  the  loose  scrums  and  gfave  their  bacKS 
ct'Ustant  possession.  Some  nice  passing  was  seen  in  the  Brent- 
wood three  quarter  line  and  two  tries,  the  first  of  which  was 
goaled,  gave  them  a  lead  of  13  points.  Then  Morant  replied 
lor  the  School  when  he  was  successful  with  a  penalty  kick 
thirty  yards  out.  In  the  closing-  minutes  Brentwood  scored 
an  imconverted  tr_\    and  won   l(i-.';. 

Brentwood  had  ])layed  intelligent  and  robust  football  and 
fully  deserved  their  victory  which  might  have  been  more  de- 
cisive had  the  ball  been  really  dry.  They  were  particularly 
well  served  at  outside  half,  and  ail  their  outsides  were  dan- 
gerous men. 

All  the  School  forw.-rds  ])layed  nard  but  were  oversl-.a- 
dowed  by  bigger  anrl  V^etter  men.  Bryn-Iones.  McXeil  and 
Badda  were  the  most  noticeable  of  the  School  back'^  who  were 
forced  to  play  a  defensive  game  from  the  start. 

School  vs.  Brentwood  College 

The  first  of  the  home  games  against  Brentwood  resulted 
in  a  win  for  the  visitors  by  a  goal  and  three  tries  (l-t  points) 
to  0. 

The  Sch(jol  all  but  opened  the  scoring  in  the  first  five 
minutes  when  Badda  burst  from  the  "loose"  in  the  Brentwood 
twenty-five  only  to  be  brought  down  on  the  goal  line  by  the 
full  back.  Play  was  of  a  very  even  nature  for  some  time  but 
the  Brentwood  forwards  were  superior  to  the  School  pack 
both  in  the  "tight"  and  the  "loose".  The  backs  were  fast  and 
better  together   than    the   School    outsides   who   were   seldom

THE  RUGBY  XV 

Cotter,  Mot hersill,  ]\I<iruan,  Shipley,  Harrison,  Atkins,  McNeil.Whittonie, 
Bryn-Tones,  Morant  (X'.-Capt. )  Perram  (Capt.),  Duncan,  Bennett 
Cook  Duke 

dang-erou:-.  Brentwood  opened  the  scoring  when  their  pack 
pushed  over  and  a  try  was  awarded.  Shortly  after  this  a 
Brentwt)od  centre  ran  through  the  middle  from  thirty-fi\-e 
yards,  seA'eral  School  tacklers  unaccountably  missed  him,  and 
the  try  was  scored  between  the  posts  and  goaled. 

In  the  second  half  play  was,  for  the  most  part,  between 
the  tvv(j  twenty-fives  but,  controlling  the  scrums.  Brentwood 
were  always  dangerous.  The  School  backs  were  very  active 
in  defence,  however,  Bvrn-Jones,  \^'hittome,  Badda  and  Ben- 
nett being  particularly  prominent,  and  although  having  almost 
constant  possession,  Brentwood  were  only  able  to  score  two 
tries,  both  unconverted.  The  School  had  played  up  well,  but 
Brentwood  were  the  better  side  and  fully  deserved  their  vic- 
tory. The  School  backs  were  strengthened  by  the  return  of 
Perram,  their  captain,  reasonably  fit  for  the  first  time  this 
season,  but  missed  McXeil,  still  on  the  injured  list.  Whittome 
had  a  good  match  at  scrum  half.  The  forwards  were  spirited, 
but  not  nearly  as  clever  as  the  opposing  pack  in  obtaining 
possession. 

School  vs.  Shawnigan  Lake  School 

The  game  was  played  at  home  and  won  by  the  School  by 
four  tries  (12  points)  to  0.  The  School  opened  the  scoring 
shortlv  after  the  start  when  Harrison  broke  awav  from  a  line- 


26 


out  in  the  Shawni^'an  t\\cnty-ti\-e.  He  was  tacklrd  \\\v  yard:- 
from  the  goal  line  hut  managed  to  gi\e  to  Cotter,  wlio  >cored. 
The  try  was  not  oonxerted.  The  School  forwards  played  badly 
in  the  first  half  and  failed  to  give  the  backs  much  of  the  ball. 
\\'hat  few  chances  the  l)acks  did  have  were  badly  used.  Hen- 
nett  dro]>i)ed  too  nian\  passes,  and  Perram  alone  looked  to  be 
cauable  of  creating  or  taking  advantage  of  an  (jpening.  On  one 
occasion  Perram  was  all  but  successful  when  he  kicked  ahead, 
beat  the  opposition  to  the  ball  and  gathered  only  to  lose  his 
balance  and  fall.  The  .School  led  3-0  at  half-time  and  had  not 
given  a  con\incing  dis])l;iy  against  moderate  opposition. 

The  second  half  was  played  in  i)ouring  rain  and  little  con- 
structive work  l)ehind  the  scrum  was  ])ossible.  The  School 
forwards  now  took  command  i^f  the  game  and  completely 
dominated  the  "loose"  play.  Two  typical  forward  tries  were 
scored,  one  by  Harrison  and  the  other  by  Duncan  ;  both  came 
after  long  forward  ruses  in  which  the  whole  pack  participated. 
The  final  try  was  scored  by  AN'hittome  who  gathered  cleverly 
and  dashed  through  to  score  after  a  short  run.  The  place  kick- 
ing of  Morant  and  Shi])ley  I  was  bad,  though  the  ball  was  a 
difl^icult  one,  and  no  goals  were  kicked.  There  was  no  further 
score  and  the  School  wnn  12-0.  All  the  forwards  played  well 
in  the  second  half,  and  it  was  pleasing  to  notice  Cotter,  (jne  of 
the  newer  members,  \er}   ]jrominent. 

School  vs.  Oak  Bay  High  School 

A  rather  ragged  game  at  home  resulted  in  a  win  f()r  the 
High  School  9-0. 

Play  was  very  even  throughout  the  first  half  but  neither 
set  of  backs  were  in  any  way  constructive,  and  neither  line 
was  seriously  in  danger.    There  was  no  score  at  half-time. 

After  the  change  over  the  School  had  the  better  of  the 
game  territorially,  but  finish  was  lacking  against  some  effec- 
tive spoiling-tactics  by  Oak  Bay,  and  despite  good  work  by 
Perram,  who  did  his  best  for  his  wnngs  the  School  were  un- 
able to  score.  On  the  other  hand,  the  High  School  turned  their 
chances  to  advantage  and  scored  three  unconverted  tries.  All 
three  came  after  long  forward  rushes — the  School  defence  was 
pitiful. 

The  School  were  deservedly  beaten.  In  general  the  tack- 
ling was  extremely  bad  c;nd  the  backs  showed  great  weakness 
in  dealing  with  resolute  forwards  with  the  ball  at  their  feet. 

School  vs.  Victoria  High  School 

This  match  wa>  played  at  \ictoria  High  School  and  re- 
sulted in  a  scoreless  draw. 

Throughout  the  game  the  Sch<jol  had  a  distince  advant- 
age, but  the  backs  were  totally  lacking  in  finish,  and  chance 

27 


after  chance  was  thrown  away  by  faulty  passing  and  irresolute- 
running'. 

The  forwards  more  than  held  their  own  against  spoiling 
opponents,  but  their  packing  was  not  good  and  their  heeling 
from  the  "loose"  was  too  slow.  Both  wing  forwards  Harrison 
and  Duncan  were  definitely  off  colour.  Too  often  they  absent- 
ed themselves  from  the  loose  scrums,  and  Harrison  was  ex- 
tremely selfish  going  down  with  the  ball  time  and  again.  Of 
the  backs.  Bennett  handled  the  ball  fairly  well  and  was  vigor- 
ous both  in  attack  and  defence.  The  wings,  McNeil  and  Duke, 
had  a  very  poor  match  being  irresolute  to  a  degree,  and  Mor- 
row was  very  ineffecti^-c  in  the  centre.  Perram  alone  showed 
any  intelligence.  On  many  occasions  he  created  openings 
w^liich  Avere  never  turned  to  account,  and  it  must  have  been 
most  disappointing  to  him  to  see  his  team  draw  a  game  which 
they  should  have  won  with  ease  and  in  which  they  had  a  very 
decided  territorial  adxantage. 

School  vs.  Brentwood  College 

Playing  at  home,  the  School  gave  their  best  performance  of 
the  season  but  had  to  admit  defeat  by  a  goal  and  two  tries 
(11  points)  to  0. 

Throughout  the  first  half  play  was  very  even  with  the 
Brentwood  backs  dangerous  at  times  but  well  held  by  close 
marking  and  good  tackling  by  the  School  outsides,  of  whom 
.McNeil  vv'as  particularly  prominent  in  the  early  stages.  After 
ten  minutes  play  Brentwood  opened  the  scoring  when  Lord, 
their  full  back,  ran  through  on  his  own  from  the  School  twen- 
ty-five. The  School  defence  was  badly  at  fault  here.  Following 
the  attempt  at  goal,  which  failed,  the  School  exerted  steady 
pressure  and  were  most  unlucky  not  to  score  when  Atkins 
rushed  through  with  the  ball  at  his  feet  after  the  Brentwood 
full  back  had  fumbled;  he  lost  control,  however,  and  kicked 
over  the  deadline.  This  was  a  bitter  blow  to  the  School  who 
fully  deserved  a  reward  at  this  stage.  The  School  continued  to 
attack,  however,  but  the  backs  lacked  finish,  and  though  both 
Bennett  and  Duke  looked  dangerous  once  or  twnce,  the  de- 
fence w.-is  never  reallv  pierced.  Brentwood  led  3-0  at  the  in- 
terval. 

After  the  re-start  the  weight  disadvantage  under  which  the 
School  laboured  began  to  tell,  and  apart  from  one  or  two  indi- 
vidual efl'orts  by  Duke  and  Bennett,  Brentwood  were  defin- 
itely on  top.  The  School  defence  was  keen  to  the  end,  however, 
and  nothing  was  given  away.  Persistent  attack  brought  its 
reward  of  course  and  before  the  end  Brentwood  scored  twice. 
One  try  was  goaled  and  Brentwood,  who,  at  this  point,  had 
not  had  their  line  crossed  this  season,  won  11-0. 

The-School  put  up  a  splendid  fight  against  a  better  team. 
The  forwards  played  fiercely  throughout  and  held  their  own 

28 


ai,^ainst  far  heavier  men.  'Jlie  backs  defended  well  and  did 
some  t^ODd  thini^s  ag-ainst  clever  and  thrustful  opponents. 
McNeil,  Duke  and  Bennett  had  a  good  match. 

School  vs.  Royal  Canadlan  Naval  College  ("A") 

This  game  was  ])layed  at  home  and  won  by  the  Xaval 
College  by  a  goal  and  two  tries  (11  points)  to  a  try  ('■i  points). 

Morgan  opened  the  scoring  for  the  School  when  he  forced 
himself  over  between  the  posts.  Jones  failed  to  convert.  .-Xfter 
some  very  even  play  the  Naval  College  replied  with  an  un- 
converted try  and  the  score  at  half-time  was  3-."^. 

For  some  time  after  the  restart  ])lay  \\as  largelv  (^i  a 
forward  nature,  but  toward  the  end  the  School  seemed  to  tire, 
and  in  the  last  ten  minutes  the  Na^•al  College  scored  twice, 
one  try  being  goaled. 

Although  well  served  by  Whittome,  the  .School  backs 
were  \ery  ineffective  and  the  tackling  was  lacking  in  vigour. 

School  vs.  Brentwood  College 

This,  the  fourth  game  of  the  season  between  the  two  sides, 
was  played  at  Brentwood  and  won  by  the  home  side  29-0. 

Throughout  the  first  half  the  School  played  keen  football 
against  their  heavier  opponents,  and  were  always  to  be  rec- 
koned with.  After  half-time,  however,  and  especially  in  the 
closing  stages,  they  seemed  to  tire  and  Brentwood  were  in 
complete  control. 

The  forwards  ])layed  well  throughout  and  were  onl}- 
slightly  inferior  to  the  opposing  pack.  Behind  the  scrum,  how- 
ever, the  School  were  always  in  trouble.  Whittome  did  his  job 
well  but  Bennett,  though  tackling  well,  was  too  slow  for  an 
exceptionally  clever  opponent,  Perram  was  inelTective.  Cook 
was  outclassed,  and  the  wings  were  not  strong  enough  to  hold 
their  opponents.  Bryn-Jones  performed  creditably  at  full  back 
and  the  blame  was  not  his.  Brentwood,  es])eciallv  in  the  last 
fifteen  minutes,  i)layed  r.)l)ust  and  intelligent  football  and 
were  full  value  for  their  win. 

School  vs.  Old  Boys 

The  season  closed  on  March  22  with  the  Old  Bovs'  game 
which  was  w^on  by  the  School  35-11. 

The  Old  Boys'  team  was  composed  of  \'ancouver  repre- 
sentatives in  the  main,  with  two  from  Victoria  and  two  from 
Seattle  completing  the  side. 

From  the  start  it  was  evident  that  the  Old  Boys  were  not 
strong  enough  to  hold  the  School,  and  almost  at  once  Kilgour 
put  the  School  ahead  when  he  picked  up  a  loose  ball  and  ran 

29 


in  un()pp.)sed.  Before  half-time  Duke  scored  twice  and  Cotter, 
Shaw  and  McXeil  once  each  for  the  School.  The  Old  Bovs 
replied  to  this  by  a  try  by  Pike  which  was  converted  bv  Tea- 
g"le,  and  a  penalty  goal,  also  by  Teag"le. 

After  half-time  the  Schoc^l  continued  to  dominate  the 
game  and  tries  were  scored  by  Shaw.  Duke  and  McNeil.  Shaw, 
who  kicked  well  throug^hout,  g"oaled  on  two  occasions.  The 
Old  Boys  failed  to  cross  the  School  line  in  the  second  half,  but 
Teagle  was  again   successful  with  a   penalty. 

For  the  School.  Shaw  had  a  good  match  and  Shipley  I 
played  a  useful  game  especially  in  the  line-out.  Of  the  backs, 
both  McXeil  and  Duke  showed  how  dangerous  they  can  be 
when  served  (piickly  and  giA'cn  room  in  which  to  run. 

For  the  Old  Boys,  Teagle  showed  that  none  of  his  kicking 
ability  had  been  lost.  Watt  played  a  hard  game  at  outside  half, 
and  Sprcjule  showed  flashes  of  the  form  that  made  him  one  of 
the  finest  scrum  halves  in  the  School's  history.  In  the  pack  the 
Hudec  Itrothers  ne\er  ceased  trying  but  they  were  unable  to 
match  the  condition  and  speed  of  the  School  side,  who  were 
without  Perram.  Morant  and  Harrison. 

The  following  represented  the  Old  Bovs:  F.  E.  Teagle 
(Capt.),  W.  L.  Gillespie,  D.  B.  Gillespie,  W.'j.  Sproule,  T.  B. 
Watt,  J.  P.  Harrison.  M.  G.  Thompson.  W.  R.  Batten,  M.  A. 
Grant,  M  G.  Hudec.  T.  P.  Hudec,  G.  W.  CoghHn.  P  A.  Kitson, 
C.  A.  Pike  and  M.  J.  Carle. 


RUGBY  CHAR.\CTERS 

PERRy\M  (Captain  and  Centre  Three-quarter) — Possessed  an  cff'^c- 
tive  "dummy"  and  played  intelligent  football  in  the  centre,  but 
his  chances  were  few  and  he  was  badh'  supported.  His  captaincy 
was  not  inspirational. 

MORAMT  (Vice-Capt.) — An  average  forward.  Good  with  the  ball  at 
his  feet,  but  there  was  no  improvement  on  last  year's  form,  his 
tackling   remaining  weak  and  his  kicking  deteriorating. 

DUNCAN — A  useful  wing  forward  who  shone  in  the  "loose".  Hi; 
de£et'.sive  play  was  weak  and  he  never  improved  on  last  year's 
foriri'. 

30 


HRVN-JOXHS— (Full  back)— A  vigorous  tackle  and  a  fair  kick 
Never  conquered  his  distaste  of  forwards  with  the  ball  at  their 
feet,  and  under  pressure  was  easily  forced  into  error. 

McXKII.  (Winu  Three-quarter) — Possessed  fair  hands  and  p^ce, 
whivli  he  had  all  too  little  opportunity  to  use.  Defended  ve.v 
well  on  occasion  but  combined  poorly.  Handicapped  by  injuries 
and   lack  of  stamina. 

W'HirTi  'MK  (Scrum  Half) — The  nu)st  improved  member  of  the 
side.  Unselfish,  served  his  outsides  effectively,  and  had  a  very 
successful  season  at  the  base  of  the  scrum.  Vastly  improved  in 
defence,  and  his  courageous  tackling  might  have  been  emulated 
by  more  robust  members  of  the  team  with  benefit.  A  very  weak 
kick. 

DUKK  (Wing  Three-quarter) — Very  fast  and  dangerous  when  in  *he 
clear.  Somewhat  excitable  and  further  handicapped  by  lack  of 
weight.   Requires  another  year's   experience. 

I'>EXXETT  (Stand-off  Half) — A  determined  runner  but  he  lacked  the 
quickness  off  the  mark  and  the  guile  demanded  of  an  outside 
half,  and  his  hands  were  noi  all  that  they  should  have  been.  An 
excellent  defender,  his  tackling  was  keen  and  sure  and  he  al- 
ways gave  of  his  best. 

COOK  (Centre  Three-quarter) — Deficient  in  pace  and  anticipation 
and  his  passing  lacked  life.  Came  on  considerably  late  in  the 
season  and  should  do  very  well  next  year. 

MOTHERSILL — A  useful  second  row  man  whi>  came  on  consider- 
ably this  year.   Combined  poorly. 

SHIPLEY  I — A  very  keen  and  promising  forward.  Prominent  in  the 
line-out.  and  is  learning  to  use  his  weight  to  advantage. 

ATKIXS — Developed  into  a  very  useful  "hook"  and  was  a  hard 
worker.  Very  prominent  in  the  "loose"  and  tackled  well  on 
occasion. 

MORG.\X — Rather  stolid  and  slow  in  the  "loose"  but  worked  well 
in   the  light   scrums. 

COTTER — A  verv  promising  forward  with  a  good  turn  of  speed  and 
and  a  fair  idea  of  defence.  Played  some  useful  games. 

H.\RRISON  I — A  greatly  improved  forward.  Determined  and  a  hard 
worker.  Good  in  the  "loose"  and  very  dangerous  near  the  line. 
Reluctance  in  passing  and  weakness  in  tackling  were  his  faults.

C/C.S.M.       -------  G.  D.  Morant 

C/C.Q.M.S.       ------  -      D.  Moilliet 

.\n  outstanding"  feature  of  this  year's  work  has  been  the 
fact  that  we  have  had  three  Inspections.  The  most  formidable 
one  took  place  in  February.  In  spite  of  the  fact  that  some  of 
our  new  recruits  had  barely  mastered  the  art  of  sloping  arms 
and  that  other  sections  were  hardly  in  a  ht  condition  to  be 
called  u|^on  to  go  through  the  intricacies  of  Ceremonial,  the 
Corps  put  on  a  very  fair  display  and  were  rated  as  90% 
efficient. 

A  great  measure  (jf  this  success  was  due  to  the  indivdual 
efforts  of  each  member  of  the  Corps.  Perram,  as  O.C..  handled 
the  proceedings  with  much  self-confidence,  while  Morant  did 
a  splendid  job  with  the  P.T.  Squad  and  the  various  rifle  ex- 
ercises. A  special  word  of  praise  is  due  to  Cpl.  Mothersill 
whose  inexahustible  patience  j)roved  inxaluable  when  it  came 
to  teaching  the  juni<jr  members  of  the  Corps  the  art  of  knot- 
ting and  splicing.  Our  thanks  are  due,  too,  to  Lieut.  \\  hit- 
tome  who  undertook  the  First  Aid  class,  and  to  CO. M.S. 
Moilliet  who  sui)ervised  the  Signalling.  Both  classes  were  re- 
])orted  by  the  Inspecting  Officer  to  have  made  good  progress; 
it  was  most  unfortunate  that  specific  times  could  not  be  ar- 
ranged whereby  those  who  had  been  taking  these  courses 
could  have  undergone  their  official  tests,  but  the  summer  term, 
as  ever,  was  a  crowded  one  from  an  activity  point  of  view  and 
X.D.H.O.  did  not  help  matters.  Sgt.  Morgan,  with  the  assist- 
ance of  the  Headmaster,  proved  himself  to  be  one  of  the  main- 
stays of  the  Band,  which  once  more  proved  itself  absolutely 
indispensable. 

On  I\Tarch  2T,  the  last  day  of  the  Easter  term,  Major  Ma- 
honey.  \'.C..  paid  us  a  surprise  visit.  He  displayed  much  in- 
terest in  the  Cadet  work  of  the  School  and  made  a  special 
point  of  s])eaking — in  some  cases  at  length — to  each  member 
of  the  Corps.  Lieut.  \\'hittome  acted  as  O.C.  in  the  absence 
of  Capt.  Perram.  who  had  sustained  injuries  wdiile  boxing,  and 
is  to  be  commended  on  ha\ing  filled  a  most  unen^■iable  task 
in  a  highly  satisfactory  manner. 

Lieut.  J.  X.  Robertson,  the  Cadet  Training  Officer  for 
Xo.  '.^  .Area-,  made  his  final  ins])ection  on  June  11  at  extremely 


sh()rt  notice — two  hours,  to  be  exact — and  once  again  the 
Corps  acquitted  itself  with  distinction.  A  shortened  form  of 
Ceremonial  Drill  was  irdulged  in  while  the  l)alance  of  the 
time  was  spent  in  checking  records  and  so  forth. 

From  a  si)ectator's  point  of  \iew  the  various  movement> 
were  carried  out  smartly  and  successfnll>-.  Tl^i^  was  all  the 
more  remarkable  in  view  of  the  fact  that  no  drill  whatever 
had  been  carried  out  during  the  previous  four  weeks.  (Our 
time  had  been  dexoted  to  .303  rifle  practice  at  Real's  Range). 

Our  •-)th  Annual  Chuich  Parade  was  held  on  the  e\cning 
c.[  June  15th  at  St.  Luke's  Church,  when  the  Rev.  F.  Pike  and 
the  Headmaster  officiated.  Intermittent  rain  had  fallen  most 
of  the  day  and  threatened  to  deprive  the  Corps  of  its  greatest 
asset,  tl-.c  Band.  However,  the  sky  cleared  about  (i  p.m.  and 
we  were  <.ble  to  participate  in  a  joyful  and  inspiring  service. 
C)ld  favourites  such  as  "Onward  Christian  Soldiers",  "Stand 
Uyj,  Stand  U])  for  Jesus",  and  "Lord,  Dismiss  Us  With  Thy 
Blessing"  were  sung  with  lusty  enthusiasm  and  ])rovided  a 
fittintr  end  to  a  vear  of  strenuous  work.

SHOOTING 

1940-1947 

\  very  encouragii^g  year's  shijoting  has  just  drawn  to  a 
v.l()se.  ^^  e  were  fortunate  in  having  with  us  five  of  last  year's 
\'I1I,  and  the}'  undoubtedly  imparted  a  degree  of  confidence 
t<»  th()>^e  who  had  not  had  much  experience  in  competitive 
work. 

Th-:  two  teams  were  entered  in  the  D.C.R.A.  Competition 
and  the  "A"  Team,  with  an  average  of  91.63%,  is  to  be  con- 
gratulated on  having  beaten  the  previous  mark  of  90.57%, 
which  was  attained  in  1942.  Davison,  AA  hittome.  Morrow  and

The  results  of  last  year's  competition  are  now  to  hand 
and  may  be  summarized  briefly  : 

Of  the  38  teams  entered  frcmi  B.C.  our  "A  "  Team  secured 
1st  place  and  (mr  "B"  Team  9th.  Some  oS8  teams  across  Can- 
ada took  part.  Claims  for  "^nd  dabs'  medals  have  been  for- 
warded to  Ottawa  on  behalf  of  Morgan,  Snape,  Stewart  and 
\\'arrender,  who  (for  the  first  time  in  this  competition)  aver- 
aged 90%  or  o\"er  in  the  three  shoots. 

During  April  we  fired  in  the  R.]\I.C.  Competition  and 
were  again  successful  in  bettering  an  old  record,  which  was

Recreational  >hooting.  made  possible  owing  to  the  lifting 
of  wartime  re--trictions  on  the  issue  of  .22  ammunition.  wa> 
started  in  January.  I'nfortunately  time  did  not  allow  for  all 
Cadets  to  benefit  by  this  extra  practice,  but  a  start  was  made 
with  what  were  considered  to  be  the  28  most  experienced 
shots.  By  the  end  of  the  summer  term  all  had  won  their  1st 
Class  Badge  and  their  Marksman  Badge,  while  ten  of  the 
twenty-eight  succeeded  in  finishing  the  course,  thereby  gain- 
ing the  coveted  Expert  Badge.  Special  mention  should  be 
made  of  the  fine  shof)ting  of  Davison,  Mackenzie  and  \\'hit- 
tome  who  made  11.  14  and  15  "possibles"  respectively  during 
the  course  which  necessitated  the  firing  of  some  25()  round> 
])er  Cadet. 

On  Sports  Day  Brigadier  Cabeldu,  D.S.O.  and  Bar,  made 
the  following  i)resentations  : 

The  Harvev  Memorial  Rifle  for  the  best  shot  in  the 
School— D.  Davison.  93.5%. 

The  Braidwood  Cup  for  the  best  Intermediate 
— M.   L.  Clifford.  90.2%. 

The  best  Junior— R.  I.  Kingham  80%. 

School  Shooting  Colours  were  awarded  to  R.  Harriscjn, 
O.  B.  Morgan.  O.  P.  Morrow  and  R.  W  Snape.

THE  Y.M.C.A.  TWILIGHT  TRACK 
AND  FIELD  MEET 

The  First  .\nnual  Twilii^ht  Track  and  Field  Aleet  wa^ 
jield  at  AlacDonald  Park  on  June  -tth  under  the  sponsorship 
of  the  Y.M.C.A. 

Tlie  School  entered  boys  in  most  of  the  junior  events, 
under  18.  and  in  two  of  the  .Senior  exents  where  entrants  were 
18  and  oxer. 

The  Meet  was  won  ijuite  easily  l)y  the  ^'.M.C.A.,  with 
Oak  Bay  High  School  in  second  place,  and  the  School  close 
behind  and  well  in  front  of  Brentwood,  who  finished  fourth. 

The  outstanding;  performer  for  the  School  was  R.  M. 
Duke  who  won  both  the  Junior  KM)  and  the  Junior  220  and 
placed  second  in  the  Junior  Broad  Jump  in  addition.  Other 
])oint  winners  for  the  School  were: 

Harrison  I:  Junior  Hig'h  Jum]),  3rd  place. 
Duncan  :  Senior  Broad  Jump,  2nd  place. 
Mc.\^eil:  Senior  100  yards,  2nd  place. 

The  School  entrants  were  outclassed  in  the  tfuarter  mile 
and  the  half  mile,  but  competition  here,  as  in  the  sprints,  was 
keen,  and  it  was  felt  that  the  School  team  had  performed,  very 
creditablv.

In  one  of  the  January,  1947,  issues  of  "Macleans"  there 
appeared  an  article  "by  Jeff'  Keate  (1929-1930).  It  appears  that, 
although  the  business  of  being  funny  all  the  time  is  some- 
what of  a  strain.  Jeff'  is  now  one  of  the  leading  cartoonists  on 
this  Continent.

Amsterdam  when  Eric  received  a  visit  from  J.  A.  Coleman

annual  rugby  game  between  the  School  and  the  Old  Boys,  all 
but  tA\o  of  whom  were  from  Vancou^■er  and  Seattle.  This 
was  a  nolle  effort  wh'ch  will,  it  is  hoped,  be  maintained.  Eol- 
lo\\ing  the  game  the  Headmaster  was  host  to  o\  er  50  (31d 
!*oys  at  a  dinner  in  the  School  dining-room.  Nearly  every
