w .\.“ â€"Â¥es, my friends as we wiped the mud from our eyes and came up for zir about the third time on the Kap uskasing Rugby field we were sadly convinced that we had lost to Kapâ€" uskzsing‘s Rugby Team and to their field. The bospitality and the girls were wonderfu‘ though. Shall we start from the first and try to get a clkvr picture of this defeat on the fiel4d of battle. § "How we pushed Daiton‘s bus over Canada‘s Northern highways." Bright and early Saturday mornâ€" ing (early anyway for it was drizâ€" zling slightly) the bus carrying the rugby players got started . on schedulc. Things were fine until someonc mentioned how hot it was and wouldn‘t it be nice to have nice cold shower. Now Daiton‘s sloâ€" gan is We Never Sleep! The bus wasn‘t sleeping because at the very nevt river it came to, The Night Hawk, it started to swerve back and forth. eath time getting closer to the river. Our driver, however (he must have taken a course on the care of c dren)}) felt that it was too cold to go Ewimming, at least before the game and pulled the bus back on the road. To say the least he was displeased with the untimely actions of the bus aond decided after a few more swerves to go and get another bus. The team were afraid of going all that way back to Timmins for some, reason or other. Why, I don‘t know. Harâ€" old Lochrie for instance stood by the door of the bus ll the way back o Hoyle. An excellaint player that chap, but a little nervous I‘m afraid. He started to calculate his momenâ€" tum and his velocity or at least made the pracitcal application of these theories that Mr. Jury had so laboriâ€" ous‘7y taught him.and came up with the suggestion that we phone from Hoyle. This :uggestlon was greeted with enthusiasm and so out piled the rugby team at Hoyle to admirc the tourist attractions and neignbv ing o Not finding any tourist attractior: and finding the neighboring country decidedly Ajamp (as they also found other things later. on) they had a little forward passing practice, using the cars on the highway as running interference. L. ccduch t t uh s e PC We had a better game there than at Kap. The other bus came about yhree cokes and two chocolate ~bars ?ater and again we were off over Canada‘s great northern highways. After passing through two or three detours land getting a first class lesâ€" son on how to build highways from actual ‘experience, (about here the bus did a little broken field .runâ€" ning between the bull dozers that wore helping .to make these excel}â€" lent roads. 2y Then came the crowning glory, We have attributed Dalton‘s busses with. being intellligent and> good chaps in general, so we will not deâ€" grade them by that they were not capable of climbing those ‘hills but rather say that no known vehicle could climb those What could we do, being,so anxious to beat Kap (something we regretted later on) but get out and push those busses up the hills Thisâ€"we did twice. . _ We will not deal with the various game this Saturda . activities on the bus up but wWill | park at 2,30 agams}; I?{tlr::;zn?“ilz:lfii simply say thnt maybe we spent too Good Night much o‘ff on efforts drawing pictures on the way up. We arrived at, Kap about 2.00 p.m., grabbed a hasty mea‘ and with stout hearts went to meet _CANADIAN the foe and their field. What a shock we received. We came with the intention of playingâ€" rugby â€" not £ swimming meet. I think that it was our heavy equipment that rather slowed us down in the deeper holes. One person aptly expressed the situâ€" ation when they said that it was no wonder that Gabby Brillinger was £o pond a(ter tall look at the ‘chance he had to practice, he was life guard at Gillies thus summer. Actualy though we are not feelâ€" ing too bad about the game. The slippery field was a little hard to get on to and we made severial costly fumbles. Belec kicked beautifully at the game making two points, Bud Johns n plunged like a Yrogan and made soveral good plunges. Dukeâ€" s"ire and Belec also teamed up sevâ€" cral times in the dying minutes io make seveiral good . forward pass plays. __ $ ur tackling was none too gOooil, possibly we were afraid to get any dirteir than we had to (how we could get any dirtier was quite a problem). This will have to be remedied in the ncxt game. Other than this things were not too bad. We were on their flvc-)urd line twice but could nol make it, and one of their touchdowns was a result of our fumble of our five line.. We will get them next â€"if there is one, never fear. . lovely looking Kap girls later . on.

Enough gossip for now, we shall keep a little in store for next week. _ 45â€"1 For Timmins Not everything went as bad as the Kap game last week for Timmins as the above score indicnates. The highâ€" light of last Wednesday‘s‘ game was Belac‘s kicking. Jack got all htis kicks away well but made several spectacular ones, some as long as sixty yurds. f % The scoring went as follows: Belec kicked a field goal from the Kirkland thirty five line for three points to start things off: Then Belec pliunged from the ten yard line to score five points and then converted to make a total of nine points. Charette then plunged another five yards a few minutes later to â€"do the same and once again Belec converted. Belec and Charrette teamed up for a touchdown pass in the second quarâ€" ter to add five more points and a few minutes later to do the same and once again Belec converted. Belec and Cparrette teamedâ€" up for a touchdown pass in the second quarâ€" ter to add five more points and a few minutes later Johnson plunged two yards for another touchdown, which Belec converted. South Porcupine made its only point the fourth quarter on a punt by Fasan. A series of forward passes then set up Johnson for another right yard plungt that sent him over the goal line for five more points. Belec in another quarter back sneak cbhalked up five points and Johnsoun pnce ~moreâ€" plunged for the final touchdown of the game. The conâ€" verts were not made. Well that‘s that for this week.
