Since our last issue we have had our Michaelmas holidays,and their advent witnessed the close of the football season, andconsequently, the I'eginning of the cricket season. ()ur firstfootbl)all team had a \ver successful career, and ultimately succeededin winning the premiership after several hard foughlt matches.The other teams while maintaining their i)sition were not sosuccessful as to win the premiership in their grade. Large numbersof boys are taking up cricket this year, and the formation of sixteams shows the enthusiasm for the game. The matches betweenthlie School, Mlaryborough and Ipswich are re always looked forwardto with interest.

Our Annual Athletic Snixrts were held on 17th Septemlr, atthe \oolloongabba Sports (round, and ipassed off very successfully.,tine weather prevailing. A detailed list of the prize winnersalpx'ars in this issue, also a photograph of the successful athletes.

The two tennis teams in B. and ('. grade respectively havefinished their matches. and although our first team has not hada too successful season, the second team has managed to securethe Ixsition of runners-up in their grade. The present issuecontains a photgraph of this team.

On 27th September there was a trial race held between twoschool crews to decide who was to represent the School Four incoming competitions. The race was won by Lloyd's crew by

two lengths, the other crew, Wilson's crew, being unfortunate insustaining a slight damage to their boat in the course of the race,which stomewhat handicapped them. The winning crew, I.loyd,()rd, I)iamond, Scott and C(ameron (cox), were presented withmedals by Mr. Bousfield. The School Four, Lloyd, Wilson,('ampbell and Baynes are rowing well, and we have great expectationin the coming races.

Tile Boxing season has closed, and Mr. ()wen's lessons werereceived with enthusiasm by tile boys. An article showing tileprogress made this season among tile l)\'s appears in this issue.

foot bll olts.Thile Firsts, after a long and hard season, have followed their

predecessors of three ytars ago, and have again leen successfulin carrying off the coveted premiership. Thle team have kepttogether well during tlhe season, rarely having off days, and on someoccasions have played really Ibrilliant football. They have onlyonce experienced defeat, and that was in the early part of theseason, at tilte hanllds of the 'Western Suburbs. ()ut of the threematches we played against this team we succeeded in beating themonly once, and that was in the final, the other match against themwas a draw, tlhe score being 8 all. The captain wishes to thankthe team for their untiring spirit and hearty resixmse to his callthroughout tile whole season. The whole team feel deeply gratefulto iMr. and Mrs. Bousfield for the kindly interest they have shown,and for tleir attendance at their matches, and they thank alltheir sul)porters whol turned up in good numbers at the importantgames. Mrs. Boustield has been exceedingly kind t, tie firststhis year, and to celebrate their winning the premiership slheinvited them all to afternoon tea at Eschenhagen's one afternoonafter school. Needless to say, tile firsts enjoyed themselves verymuch indeed, and thoroughly alppreciated such a warm sup5)orter.

The visit of tlhe Armidale boys with their h( onour caps put theidea of having honour caps into the heads of tlhe memn!ers of theschool committee, and nd after due consideration they decided togive three caps each year one for the best forward, one for thebest hack, and the third for the next best player. Again Mrs.Bousfield made a generous otfer , f two extra caps because of tlteunusually good team this year. The caps were to )be awarded ontlie vote of the team, and as a result of tlhe voting J. PI. Millerreceived tlhe cap for the best forward, R. . W\illcocks the cap for thebest back, and N. A. Lloyd the one for the next best playerthe two extra caps were voted to E. IP. Holmes and ('. ('. ('amplell.

The caps which are of dark blue satin with broad silver braidtrimming, were afterwards presented in thle hall, and each of therecipients was heartily applauded. The detailed account of tilhematches played since last issue is as follows :-

SCHOOL. V. SOI'TH BRISBANE. - -Pla\ed at \West End, and proveda rather exciting game ; the score at half-time being three all,Kent kicking a penalty goal. In the second half we opened thegame up, an(d Waraker scored twice with two splendid fast runsround the wing. \Willcocks also scored and converted one try :this made the final scores, 14 --(i.

SCHo.L V. VALLEY. Played ()n the Turf after heavy rain.which left water lying on the ground, and made it very dirty andslippery As usual we did not play up to form in the first half,and the score was --3 against us. But in tle second half webrightened up, and scored rather frequently ; it was rather amusingto see a player dive over the line into a sheet of water, and get upwet and muddy, but smiling. Tries were s(ored by Lloyd (2).Scott, Sutton, Newell, ('ampbell and Willcocks, and Willcocksbeing in great form c\onverted two tries and Ikicked a penalty goalmaking the scores 2$ 13. About tive minutes before full timeSutton was unfortunate enough to hurt his ankle, which preventedhim f.om playing the next match.

SC'HOOI .. SOUTH BRISBANE.- This match was p)layedt at theInion (;round, and proved to Ie about tlte roughest game of tilheseason.

Critieisms on the Team.H, .LKENT has developed into a sound bat, his strokes all around

the wicket are good, though he is inclined to play the ballback to the howler. Has kept wickets fairly well this season.

J. BARRISKILL. is a fast scoring batsman, and hias a very attractivestyle, he has greatly improved his defence since last season :should Ibe more careful with leg glides. His oft drives arevery' hard and crisp. In the field lie is excellent, and is afine catch in anii lx>sition. He b\owls medium pace andkeeps a good length.

H. H. MIACINTOSH is our left hand howler: 1li'e has an easy action,and the left handers' natural break from the k'g. He keep sa much better length this season. As a batsman he shouldtry and get rid of flourishing. His ground fitlding is nei'tand clean.

N. V'ARAKEK is splendid on the leg ; he off drives well also, butshould keep his bat lower and straight wlt n playing back.\\htn hitting he should keep his bat straight. He fieldssplendidly and returns the ball well. Is a fair change howler.

B. PCWE has a good defence, but plays back too much on turfwickets, lie should play forward more. He has not doneas well as we all expected on the turf. In the field he shlouldmove after the ball more briskly, and also put his handsdown straight away as soon as the ball is hit in his directioninstead of making a dart at it when it is almost on top of him

J. NEWEI.I. is a very safe field, lihe throws well, and his catchingis splendid. His batting is rapidly improving on turf. Hisstrokes behind the wicktt are uppish ; he should take morecare with hi' leg strokes. He both off and leg drives verywell. Bowls a fair length.

A. D)AVEY fourishes his bat too much, and in this way misses a lotof balls. He should not try to score off every ball. He oflfdrives very well. He bowls an ofl break at medium pace.and keeps a good length. His fielding is improving rapidly.

E. 1). I)cI.E moves away to play a hall on his legs instead oftrying to glide it. His fielding is rather slow, but lie saves alot of runs at long stop. He howls a fast ball and gets in adangerous leg break at medium pace but is easily discouraged.

R. SHIRI.EY howls a veryl big leg break, but does not get too goo(da pitch. He is inclined to play across when batting; woulddo better if lie attended practice more regularly.

BODDIN(;TON is inclined to step hack from his wicket to halls pitchedon his legs. He cuts well. Is a fair field.

R. J. WILLCOCKS (By a member of the team).-- )ur popular ('aptain.As a bowler he is fast, and has a dangerous change of pace,he also swings away a good deal at times. He is a goodbat, with a variety of strokes, but is rather inclined to pick

the wrong ball to lift. He is very enthusiastic, and is to becomplimented on the way in which he carries out his dutiesas Captain. He is a reliable held in any position.

SE('(COND)S' CRIKET NOTES.As in the case last year we have again formed a team to play

The events were well contested,and the management reflected the greatest credit on the officials.The timetable was strictly adhered to, with the result that the lastrace was disposed of at the scheduled time. A feature of theathletic events was the number of close finishes, and the splendidhigh jumping of Doyle, who won both jumping competitions.The championships were won by Barriskill (100 yards), Willcocks(440 yards), and Cooper (880 yards). The officials were: Referee,Mr. F. S. N. Bousfield; judges, Messrs. I. A. I)akin, A. J. Mason, B.Porter, R. Robertson, R. W. l)owling, F. H. Stegmann, and C.W. Costin (O.B.A.) ; starter, Mr. T. E.

Waraker on his fine )performance, and hlopedhe would one day figure among (ueensland's, if not Australia'sforemost athletes. The school, too, he said, ought to be proudin having such an excellent sports-master in Mr. Jones, who wasuntiring in his efforts in respect to the school games, and it wouldgive him great pleasure to be able to present the sclhool with theshield on some future occasion.

MAJoR HAKRRIS said that being an o0ld boy of tile sclhool lie coildnot naturally help being pro)ud of its achievements in the differentspheres. The record put up at the Hospital Sports, he said, wasvery creditable indeed, and while congratulating the schlool heartilyon its success, lie hoped that he might again witness the presentationof the shield to us at s(ome future date.

MR. IoUSFIEi.D then thanked Mr. ('arter and Major Harrisfor coming and presenting us with the shield, and also for theirkind remarks. A vote of thanks was then moved, and cairiedunanimously by\ tlie boys.

Sehool I'ouse hoesThere are 43 lboarders in the House this quarter. In the

Michae'mas holidays, Mr. Housfield took those boarders who wereunable to go home or out to friends, to their favourite seasideresort, Jumpin' Fin. As usual, we had a splendid time. We didnot g' down b beoat this time, but travelled b1 train to Southlport,where Mr. Tuesley met us with his launch, and conveyed us toJumpin' Pin. There was always plenty to do, as the fishing andbathing \were excellent. \''e also indulged in football and cricketmatchles on the sand. Much amusement was experienced in tryingto catch the clusive sand-worms, but in most cases we were " t,ooslow to catch worms." The four days passed all too, quickly,and we returned to school on Tu sda night, after a splendidholiday.

At the Annual Athletic Sports the boarders acquitted them-selves very creditably, J. R. Harriskill \won the 110 yards champion-ship, E. 1). I)oyle, the ()Open High Jump, clearing 3ft. 2ins., andH. Willcocks the 440 yards chanmpionship.

()n Friday evening ( )ctoblr 29th, Mr. Housfield kindly invitedtlie hoarders to the Centennial Hall to see tlhe cinematograjhlipictures illustrating I.ieut. Shackleton's famous " )asli for tih,South Pole." The entertainm,.nt was most enjoyable, and gave .1very lair idea of tilt'e dangers and hardships which hIadto Ibe encouitrtrd in the I'olar regions.

On Saturday evening, November 6th, Mr. Norton, M.L.C.,kindly invited us to the School of Arts to see his Magic Lanternslides. Owing, however, to an unfortunate accident to the lantern,the evening was, as Mr. Norton said, " a wild goose chase." Mr.Norton, who regretted the incident as much as any of us, kindlypromised to show us the pictures when tile machine was repaired.

Mrs. Bousfield kindly gave 2 additional honour caps to theFirst Fifteen. The Boarders who won caps were R. \Willcocksand E. Holmes, who has now left.

A Boarders' Cricket Team has again been formed, and playingin Fourth Grade Junior. F. H. Bridgman was elected Captain,but owing to the fact that he was required for the Second XI,a new election took place, and J. P. Kennedy was chosen.

S. H. Jones has passed the Civil Service Examination.E. P. Holmes has been distinguishing himself in N. Queensland.

He has represented Cairns at football. He is now surveying nearBowen.

Molesworth is a candidate for Sydney Senior, and we wishhim success. We are looking forward to seeing his name at thetop of the list of passes in the house.

Past Grwamar fooftah C/wi.The football season for 1909 is now over, and it is to iw regretted

that the progrosti( ation in the last notes did not turn out quite asexpected, and that the Pasts cannot record winning tile Premiershiipfor 1909.

Since the match against the Brothers on the 17th Jul last.when we were beaten by a drop goal, 4 to nil, the team did not playtogether again for four weeks, the Saturdays intervening Wingtaken up with a trial match in preparation for the visit of N.S..Then the two games against N.S.W., and the Saturday after w\had a forfeit from Toowong, who had disbanded.

After this long and unfortunate spell the team met SouthBrisbane, and were Inaten 1 11 to nil. The game was of a \elrstrenuous nature, and as most of tlihe team will admit tilhe mostvigorous, one we have played in this season, and all of us nursed.cl" a little something " to rememlntr it by.
