They are only a junior team and generally a cou- ple of years younger than their opposition. As a result, in the crunch and it often came to a crunch, the Welsh team was a mite lighter than the host teams. The first game of the day was between the Midlanders and the boys from Wales. Midland made a good start when Gary Watson scooted across for the first try which was con- verted by Doug McCon- nachie. Gradually though, the Welshmen asserted themselves. »«. It is fair to say that Lampeter has a season under their belts, the game is played through the winter in Wales, and Midland is in the process of building for their season. Al (the Sieve) Keery was victimised by the Welsh who picked on him to kick the ball to. Keery accepted the imposition cheerfully, a full back's life can be grim under such cir- cumstances, and he will be a good player when he learns to catch the ball. He has the spirit. The game ended with Midland being on the short end of a 20 to 10 score. The Welsh lads cited Ross Rauted of Midland as the M.V.P. of the game. Brock H.S. of Cann- ington was considered a favourite before the game, until they came up against the upstarts of Danforth Tech. The Toronto team showed them a clean set of heels. Territorially, the Brock squad gained the most ground but "Prince"' Green took a hook out from the scrum and galloped half the field for a fine solo try. In the second half, Tony Corracchia, who is built a little lower to the ground than Prince, bulldozed his way over for another splen- did try. It was a very chastened Brock team that left the field at the final whistle. The Danforth backs held the line to pro- tect the individual efforts of: the forwards. Meanwhile the well coached Eastview (Barrie) team was making mincemeat of the Opposi- tion in their half of the schedule. On their way to the final they accounted for Cardinal Newman Toron- to 26-6, Lampeter 26-0, and Danforth 24-0, They war- rant watching and I should have watched them more than I did. The hard runn- ing Barrie side notched tries from Ralph Engel, Mike Thompson (2), Steve Sclater, and Kirk Mankletow. Thunderfoot Jamie Galloway converted all the tries except one. The organizers are to be congratulated on a well organized tournament. SEE THE BOSS = Q! el am REAR COIL SPRINGS FROM $8995 PARTS AND LABOUR INCLUD!
