This\nresolution was reindorsed by the B.C.\ncampus at the Dominion convention\nwhen it was announced that the medical school would not be started this\nyear, and UBC branch 72 was then\npromised full support for any campaign launched.\nAccording to Legion officials,\nBranch 72 and the pre-med tciiib\nwithheld their campaign until last\nweek in order not to compromise the\nnegotiations of the university authorities.\nPROVINCE-WIDE COVERAGE\n\u00a311 provincial branches will be circularized by the UBC branch in order\nto present them with the case tor\nthe medical school asked for by the\nUBC Board of Governors and turned\ndown last week by the provincial\ngovernment.\nThe circular letter stresses the value and necessity of a Provincial\nMedical ^chJool to the whole of Bi.C.\nand the fact that several hundred\nveterans at UBC, and hundreds of\nother students are now unable to gain\nentrance to any medical school.\nAPPROACH VICTORIA\nBranch 72 will ask the provincial\ncommand to make special and strong\nrepresentations to the forthcoming\nmeeting of the Legislature and will\nask all branches to bring the maximum public pressure to bear on the\ncabinet and their local members for\nthe establishment of the school.\n\u2022i i\nLegion officials state that if B.C, is\never to have its own medical school\nand ifMt is to be of any use to the\nveterans, who postponed their medteal\ncareers in order to serve their country for their best years, now is the\ntime for public opinion to force the\nissue while the provincial government\nhas the money for it.\nThe Legion hopes to see the democratic method of the public overruling governments, work on this issue to give B.C. a first-tclass medical\nschool by 1948.\nX-Ray Only Solution To TB Toll\nAppointments Now\nFor Campus Survey\n|a\u00ab Groupt   514\n25-34\n35 44\n45-54\nAppointments for the second annual\nchest X-ray for students, faculty and\nstaff of the University which begins\nFebruary 3 and continues for one\nmonth, may be made at the Health\nService office now.\nAccording to the B.

That total was only\none-quarter of what it was fifty years ago, but\nit was still so tragically serious as to mean that\nTB caused more deaths than all other infectious\ndiseases combined.\nA break-down of the total shows that the\nhighest death rate occurred in the fifteen to\nthirty-four age group.\nThere is, however, firm ground for hope, for\nof all the serious maladies TB responds most\nfavorably to treatment\u2014providing that it is\ncaught in the early stages.\nIt is comparatively easy to catch the disease\nbefore it has reached the serious stage, the\nbest method being the chest X-ray.\nThat X-ray may not only show TB symptoms\neven before the TB begins to make the victim\nfeel unwell but also may indicate the existence\nof some other malady.\nThe X-ray is not a complicated affair. It may\nnow be secured with a minimum of time and\neffort.   No one has so little time that he can\nnot take a few minutes to be sure that he will\nnot waste a life, possibly his own.\nThere is no charge for the X-ray.\nThe results are confidential and they are\nshown to the person examined within a few\ndays.\nFor one month, beginning February third,\nUBC students will have the opportunity of\ntaking the test on the most modern equipment\nin Canada by simply walking over to the\nHealth Service office to make the appointment.\nThere will be an opportunity for everyone\nto take the test. That opportunity applies again\nthis year to those who took the test last spring,\nfor TB is communicable, university students\nlead hectic lives, and it does not pay to be\ncareless in the fight against the disease.\nThese have all been statements of fact.\nIs there anyone who needs to have the conclusions drawn for him?\n.. Beauty On The Sp\nA few days ago I found myself with a two hour space in my\ntimetable and nothing to do, so I went for a walk; not along the\nboulevard or the Mall, but in the woods surrounding our university. The air was cool and fragrant, and strangely conducive\nto thought. I asked myself this question: \"What does this life\nmean to me; this life at University?\"\nThe Mummery\nBy JABEZ\nOne of Mayor G. G. McGeer's most widely\nproclaimed election promises was \"There will\nbe dancing in the streets.\" This was one plank\nin the Mayor's platform which, when I stumbled onto it in the newspaper, sprang up and hit\nme right on the nose. And now that the streets\nhave cleared of snow and the weather is warming, I am becoming increasingly uneasy about\nthat loose plank, particularly since the Mayor is\none of those politicians who defy tradition by\ncarrying out their election promises.\nHe hasn't said yet whether this street dancing will be compulsory, but judging by the\naggressive vigor with which he has led the\nGrand March in the Police Department we can\nprobably assume that it will be. That's what\nworries me. I dance like a spavined camel, and\nmuch as I yearn to be a good citizen and amuse\nthe tourists I view with alarm the possibility\nof walking peacably down Granville street\nsome evening and suddenly being hustled into\na nearby polka by a cop anxious to please the\nchief magistrate.\n\"And where d'ya think you're going' in such\na hurry?\" asks the cop, his knee pressed affectionately into the small of my back. \"Surely\nnow you have time for the Pender polka?\"\nI have trouble enough making my way downtown at night as it is , buffeted by American\nsailors charging into the wake of trawling females, or walking absently into the arms of\npeople witnessing Jehovah, without being drafted into a street dance.\nBesides, I have learned from experience that\nno woman interested in the future of her feet\nwill dance with me, indoors or out, and I look\npretty silly dancing by myself, even with a\ntambourine. I once took five dollars' worth of\n\u2022lessons from one of those schools that advertise\n\"If you can walk, we will teach you to dance.\"\nAfter several hours locked in hand-to-hand\ncombat with an instructress, it became apparent that they weren't going to teach me to\ndance. (For one thing, she couldn't get me to\ntake comers, my style demanding either an\nextremely long ballroom or a partner who\ncould enjoy a good, solid ricochet off the wall.\nOne day as we stood before a window shuffling\nand straining at a 45-degree turn, I glanced\ndown into the street to see a fair-sized crowd\ngaping up at what they must have presumed\nto be a life-or-death struggle, one of us trying\nto hurl the other out the window.)\nSince they couldn't teach me to dance, the\nimplication was strong that I couldn't walk.\nThey didn't say so, but I could read it in their\neyes. They knew my ability to move around\non my hind legs was that of a trained elephant,\nready to drop back on all fours if tossed a\npeanut\nSo, to me dancing in the street is not what\nVancouver needs at this time. Besides, what\nstreet could we dance in? Most downtown\nstreets are so full of craters that only a reckless\nfool would try even a minuet amongst them, 1\nsometimes dream a scene in which I'm waltzing\nwith Rita Hayworth on Richards street, and we\nwaltz straight into a bottomless pit outside the\nPioneer Laundry. Every six months a little\nman from Public Works comes along and drops\na shovelful of hot tar on us.   Horrible dream.\nNow, if this street dancing is the Mayor's\nidea of an economical way of filling the potholes in the city's streets, I think he should\nsay so, instead of creating the impression that\npeople will just have a good time and be able\nto go home afterwards. If, on the other hand,\nhe intends merely an innocent type of municipal amusement, he should send out search\nparties now to find a flat, wide street, well-\npaved and well-lit and somewhere north of\nthe 49th parallel.

His comments\nare so ridiculously impotent that I\nthink he can only recently have been\nawakened to the rude shock that the\ngood Lord actuary created legs under\nthe clothes in which women usually\nappear. '\nOn page six of the Vancouver Daily\nProvince of January 22, the pious\nFather is quoted as saying that the\ninterpretation by the Mardi Gras\ncommittee of Balinese dancing costumes is not based on fact; that the\nmodest Balinese would be horrified\nat the exposure of legs. In UBC's 'inaccurate' interpretation, Father Chaloner could see no clothing from the\nhips down\u2014and he was looking very\nhard. It is quite true that the costumes are technically inaccurate, but\nI was shocked and righteously indignant myself at what the learned\nFather is here suggesting, for of\ncourse, with the obvious depth of\neducation he displays in his letters\nto the various editors, he knows that\nthe true Balinese dancing costume\nexposes that entire portion of the\nfemale body which lies above the\nhips. Is this what he wishes to see,\nrather than that portion from the\nhips down? How can he suggest such\na shocking thing as exchanging the\nbare leg for the bare torso, simply\nso that the Balinese will not send to\nE.C. a formal protest aainst such\ngross misrepresentation of their costumes as we have dared produce?\nAlthough the Balinese have been following this practice for some centuries, I feel sure that if we were\nto copy them thus exactly, every\nman, woman and child in our country would be reduced to complete\nmoral ruination in the space of a\nfew days! Is this, then, the terrible\nthing the Reverend Father is wishing upon us?\nYours truly,\nNeil Monroe.\nREPLY\nDear Sir:\nIn regard to last Thursday's editorial, it is true that there were regrettable misunderstandings connected\nwith this year's McCtoun Cup debates, and it is true also that the\nParliamentary Forum was in part\nresponsible. The confusion unfortunately delayed the release of accurate publicity, a fact as painful to\nthe Forum as it was to The Ubyssey.\nIt was not, however, the Western Universities Debating League that was at\nfault, as the editorial stated, but the\nvarious debating organizations within\nthe league who succeeded in confusing each other. To the extent of its\nown carelessness the Forum is most\napologetic.\nThere are certain statements, however, in the editorial which I feel need\nclarifying. The statement that Forum\nofficials have phoned The Ubyssey for\ninformation of its affairs is misleading.\nThe reference is apparently to Dr.\nCrumb, the Honorary President, wishing to discover the origin of the McGoun Cup Debates through the file\nof The Ubyssey, information which\nhe had unsuccessfully sought from\nForum executives, and which the latter had not been able themselves to\ndiscover, and to the secretary of the\nForum not having received information from Saskatchewan which was\noverdue, phoning to enquire whether\nit had been sent to The Ubyssey instead of the Forum.\nThe Forum this year has been engaged in more activities than ever be-\nfor: a weekly radio round table program on which forty student speaker*\nhave already appeared, McGoun Cup\nDebates, the Frosh Debate with Victoria College, the Mock Parliament,\nthe special weekly forum for beginners at public speaking.\nIt has this year successfully negotiated debates with seven American\nuniversities. In some cases there will\nbe return engagements.\nI mention these items only to demonstrate that it is impossible for any\none executive member to know from\nday to day sparine details of each\nForum activity, as the conduct of each\nhas to be delegated to individual executive members. It is therefore conceivable that \"senior executives of\nthe Parliamentary Forum have not\nbeen able to tell the paper just which\nmembers were on the road during\ntheir American tours.\" Moreover, for\nthe tour in question, bur efforts were\nhampered by last minute withdrawals of team members.\nThe Forum appreciates greatly the\nexcellent coverage by The Ubyssey of\nour efforts. That coverage, we admit,\nhas sometimes been in spite of difficulties encountered in gaining accurate information, and for these difficulties, we apologize. We shall in\nfuture attempt to remove them.\nYours truly,     DAVE WILLIAMS,\nParliamentary Forum.\nPresident\nVoise Yet\nDear sir,\n1 aint the type to be complainln\nbut because of all the r&inin\ntheres a bump along the mall\nwhich lm sure is felt by all\nwhen the men repaired the road\nyoud think they wouldve knowd\nthat mud although financial\nis certainly not substantial\nboiny\nEd. Note\u2014It Is Incorrect to say that\nthe fraternities and sororities were\n\"supposed\" to pay $25.00 per page In\nlast year's Totem. Though they should\nhave paid for those pages, they were\nnever definitely made to commit themselves in that regard. Thus, the AMS\ncould not legally force the fraternities or sororities to pay any \"bills\"\nfor the pages. This year the Greeks\nhave been made to commit themselves\ndefinitely to paying $25.00 per page,\nplus twenty-five cents per person\nwhose picture appears on it. Whether\nor not the Gym fund has any claim\nupon J2S.00 IFC cheques which now\ndo not exist is a matter for the Gym\nfund people to take up with the fraternities.\nDear Sir:\nIn past issue, The Ubyssey has\nprinted several reasons why the 1946\nTotem was not a complete success. I\nwould like to point out another one.\nLast year each fraternity and sorority was supposed to pay $25.00 for\nthe privilege of having their picture\nappear on a separate page in The\nTotem. Twenty-one pages of The\nTotem were used up printing these\npictures and yet none of the sororities\nor fraternities paid up. The result\nwas that the AMS (that's us) lost\n1525.00\nEach year the fraternities must deposit a $25.00 cheque with the Inter-\nFraternity Council Last February\nthe IFC voted to donate these cheques\n(12 fraternities $25.00-1300.00) to the\nWar Metrvjrial Gym. In March, this\nsame IFC voted to use the cheques\nto pay off their debt to The Totem.\n(Perhaps if the year had been a little\nlonger they could have also used these\nsame cheques for a variety of other\npurposes). As it was, the cheques\nwere turned over neither to the War\nMemorial Gym nor to The Totem.\nThe fact that the IFC voted to pay\nfor their pictures makes it apparent\nthat they were fully aware of their\ndebt to The Totem. Unless someone\ncan give a better explanation than I\nhave received, i.e. that nobody remembered to send out the bills, I think it\nis the duty of the present Student\nCouncil to. rectify this error of its predecessor. Another $525.00 certainly\nwouldn't hurt the Gym Fund.\nB. MARZOCCO.\nNOTICES\nThe Symphonic Club will meet on\nWednesday, Jan. 29, in the Double\nCommittee Room, at 12:30.

It was suggested that perhaps those dogs who choose the Varsity campus as their experimental area\nin their perpetual forestry project had\ndropped the course this term and de-\nmanded higher sanitation standards\nfor this optional course. The subject would be new, but also, in a\nsense, a refresher course.\nLIBRARY ADDITIONS?\nOthers glanced over to the construction job north of the library and concluded that the new wing was to\nhave mora facilities than had been\noriginally planned. However, whether the addition of these facilities was\nto be a matter for the great outdoors\nor a project of modest interior decorating seemed to be the indeterminable factor.\nSome who witnessed the spectacle\nwhile passing along the Mall reconstructed in their minds the bitter\nfrustration of a souvenir hunter who\nhad carried his prize from the Brock\nHall washroom, sighted an enormous\nbus lineup and thence, for practical\nreason, abandoned the project.\nTECHNOCRACY INC.\nOthers drew both economic and\nsocial conclusions from the scene, interpreting it as \u2022 move on the part\nof a Technocrat urging the banning\nof all pay toilets. He was, no doubt,\nfirmly convinced that the use of such\nfacilities should not be reserved for\nthe monied classes.\nffhe more practical observer pointed\nthe accusing finger at the UBC Jokers\nclub, believing the placing of the toilet\non the lawn to a form of protest on\nthe part of some members of the club\nagainst ace Joker Dave Hayward's decision for the club, as Hayward put\nit, \"to go serious.\" However, Hay-\nward assured The Ubyssey that even\nif some of his boys were responsible,\nit was \"not an official action of the\nclub.\"\n\"But,\" the reformed Hayward added wistfully, \"it does look rather appropriate, doesn't it?\"\nFourth in a series of lectures on\nradio scriptwriting will be given\nThursday at 12:30 in the Men's Club\nRoom.\nThursday's lecture on Music will\nconsist of the various types and uses\nof music In the radio drama.

A. Hobbs\u2014Arts\n47\". This letter states, under the\nguise of an interest in public welfare,\nthat compulsory VD tests are necessary at UBC \"since the services did\nnot compel vets on discharge to be\nVD tested.\"\nIn dealing with these obscene insinuations of a puerile mind, several\npoints need clarification. In the first\nplace, all veterans on discharge received, albeit with some trepidation,\na complete blood test; and no service\nman was discharged without a clean\nbill of health. The second and most\nimportant point is that such suggestions are a slur upon the good name\nof all veterans.\nThe writer of the letter was obviously not a veteran, or he (oj she)\nwould have known of the bloodtests\nat the time of release from the service. And if the writer is not a veteran, the insult becomes doubly objectionable.\nThe writer is to be congratulated\non having escaped from the perils of\nVD, seemingly so apparent in the\nservices, just as he (or she) is to be\ncongratulated on having escaped all\nthe other hazards of war for civilization.\nSincerely,\n*\u00ab Johnny Norris.\nTORONTO, Jan. 27, (CUP)- About\ntwenty members of the Toronto University Atomic and Rocket Society\nparticipated here in the first tests of\nrockets built by the group. A biting\nwind, and freezing temperatures\nhampered operations somewhat, but\ntwo rockets were tried out\nHenry Shanfield, a chemical engineer now doing postgraduate work,\nbuilt the first rocket, from a 30-inch\nseamless aluminum tube. Complete\nwith its wooden nose-plug and tall\nfins, the rocket weighed just under\ntwo pounds. The combustion chamber\nwas packed with nearly a pound of\nhome-made gunpowder.\nThe rocket was set up in a vertical\nposition, and an electric detonator\nfor the gunpowder, with a booster\ncharge of sulphure and potassium\nnitrate, was connected to a relay detonation circuit.\nFIZZLE\nWhile spectators retreated from the\nlaunching site, the relay circuit began to buzz. The retreating onlookers\nturned around. So smoke, no roar.\nThe relay buzzed and buzzed, but\nnothing happened.\nThe second rocket, built by Algy\nRosenberg, IMP & C, was set up.\nConsiderably larger, it was built of\nsoldered tinplate. This time the relay\ndetonator worked. There was a flash,\na roar, and a brilliant orange flame\nshot down from the rocket's tail, the\ngeneral effect being reminiscent of\nthe launching of a miniature V2. Just\nthen the wind gave a stronger blast,\nand Rosenberg's rocket toppled over,\nand continued to burn itself out. It\nwas evident that the charge was insufficient to lift or move the three\nand a half pound projectile.\nAs a final touch, the rocket exploded, throwing flame and smoke in all\ndirections. The power of the charge\nwas sufficient to blow a hole in the\nground, and the seams had fallen\napart under the intense heat, conservatively estimated of 2000 degree\nFahrenheit Some explosions of this\ntype have been known to attain near.\nly 5000 degrees, Kurt Stehling, president of the club stated.\nShanfield's rocket was set up for a\nsecond attempt, this time on a 45\ndegree launching rack. Again the relay buzzed. Adjustments; more buzzing. Suggestions came in from bystanders, and the camera enthusiasts\ndemanded some action. Experiment,\ners tried electric sparks, flaming wads\nof paper, and, finally .cotton wads\nsoaked in turpentine.\nSUCCESS\nThat did it. The flame ducked out\nof sight inside the tube, and the observers were getting ready to try a*\ngain, when suddenly the rocket quivered uncertainly, an orange flame\ngushed out the back, and then it shot\nup the launching rack and into the\nair.\nWhen it reached a height of 15 feet\nit exploded, wobbling in its flight,\nand pitching down to the ground.\nThere it exploded (again.\nExamination showed that the charge\nhad blown one hole through the hull,\nand then blown the head off.\nThe riveted construction of Shanfield's rocket had stood the test and\nunlike those on Resenberg's rocket,\nthe fins remained firmly in place.\nOn the spot conclusions: (1) The\npowder used was all right. (2) A better method of detonation is needed.\n(3) The rocket will have to be controlled somehow. (4) This is no time\nof the year to be doing outloor experimental work.\nlined the plight ot Polish students, and\ntheir present struggle to maintain\nexistence.

The basis of\nhis argument was that higher education should be placed on a national\nproblem basis.\nDr. Hall criticized the motion that\nany \"superior\" student regardless of\nfamily financial status, could obtain\na university education. \"This idea,\"\nhe declared, \"is definitely contrary\nto feet, for it is always the big dollar sign that counts in every university in the land.\"\nDr. Hall also deplored the fact that\nmany professors and deans were becoming less educators and more business executives, owing to the desires\nof many universities to expand physically.\nUniVERSITV BOOH STORE\nHours: \u2022 ajta. to S pan.; Saturday t aJn. to noon.\nLOOSE LEAF NOTE BOOKS, EXERCISE BOOKS AND\nSCRIBBLERS\nAT REDUCED PRICES\nGraphic   Engineering   Paper,   Biology  Paper\nLoose Leaf Refills,   Fountain Pens and Ink\nand Drawing Internments\nOWNED AND OPERATED BY THE UNIVERSITY OF B.C.\no. a u*i\u2014\u25a0\u00bb\u25a0 nw\u00bb\nv. fl.

Before the best rugby turnout\nof fans this year, a seven-man squad\ndefeated ex-South Burnaby 13-3,\nsweated out a close win over their\nbrother team UBC and then walked\nall over Meralomas to the tune of\n12-5.\nSix teams participated in this panorama of rugby games that more\nthan satisfied the spectators.\nMain interest of the afternoon came\nwhen the hard fighting blue shirts of\nthe UBC aggregation threatened to\nlost to Varsity by 3 points.\n'LOMAS TAKE NORSE\nThe opening game same 'Lomas take\nNorth Shore All-Blacks 5-0. In the\nsecond fray Rowing Club opened up\nagainst UBC by making good a penalty kick, but Jack Armour, who\nwas showing his best form of the year,\nwas soon over the Rowers' line for\nthe first blue-shirt blood.

Whatever it was, the best that\nthe basketballing 'Birdmen could do\nover the weekend was a single win\nin their two game series with the\ntribe of Chieftains from Seattle.\nThe invading squad defeated the\n'Birds Friday night, 59-54 to cut the\nBlue and Gold winning streak at\nseven games. However, revenge was\nUBC Squad Takes\nVarsity Grassmen\nGrass hockey artists of the UBC\nsquad squelched the speedy efforts\nof the Varsity eleven Saturday by\noutpointing the Varsity stickmen in a\ntorrid 3-0 session on the campus grass\nhockey turf.\nLes Bullen of the UBC team took\nscoring honors in the second canto,\nnetting two counters against the Varsity men after Tom Wilkinson had\nopened the UBC score efforts in the\nfirst stanza to put the winners ahead\nat the breather.\nBy virtue of then* Saturday win,\nUBC has strengthened their position\non top of the local stick loop, with\nVarsity placing second in the standings.\nVancouver also moved into the win\ncolumn Saturday when the locals\ntook the North Shore Indians for a\nhotly contested 2-1 cruise in the second half of the double-header event\non the campus.\nAs far as a thrilling series goes\nhowever, it was the opinion of most\nof the Varsity fandom that these contests reached the height. Play was\nfairly rugged and yet there was plenty of good basketball thrown in. In\nboth cases, the 'Birds had to fight\ntheir way upwards and the crown\nwas all out to help them.\nThe Friday night fracas saw the\n'Birds erase an opening minute margin and go on to lead throughout\nthe rest of the first half coming off\nthe floor with a 26-22 lead. It was\nthe work of many of the so called\n\"second stringers\" that 'held the Seattle squad off during the first canto\nbut things were destined to be very\ntroublesome for the men of Oz from\nthere on.\n'BIRDS LEAD\nThe beginning of the second canto\nsaw the 'Birds maintain their small\nbut important lead until four quick\nSeattle counters brought the score to\n42-41, Seattle. Once again the Blue\nand Gold built up a margin only \u00bbto\nsee the Chieftains take the lead again\nat 53-52. That was all for the 'Bird-\nmen after that.\nUP-HILL FRACAS\nThe Saturday fracas was strictly an\nup-hill fight all the way for the\nThunderbirds. They came off the\nmaples at the half on the short end\nof a 27-23 count after enjoying an\n18-11 lead for a few minutes in the\nopening canto.\nThe fight kept a-going with the\n'Birds struggling valiantly to tie the\ncount. Finally with a bare two minutes to go, the 'Birds scored the\ncounter that made the score 47-46 for\nthe Blue and Gold squad. Another\nbasket for UBC and a foul shot for\nSeattle finished a thrilling series with\na 47-49 count.\nBRITISH\nCONSOLS\nCxPia AU\u00a3d\nwhen Varsity met ex-South Burnaby\nin the third test of the day. The score\nwas 5-0 when Don Nesbitt made the\nconvert good. It was 5-3 a few moments later as Burnaby made their\nonly score. Harvey Allan kept up the\nprestige of the Blue and Gold when\nhe went over for a try but the kick\nwas no good. Minutes later a long\nrun by Russ Latham and a quick pass\nto Bud Spiers was good for another\ntry.\nNESBIT BOOTS\nDon Nesbit completed the scoring\nby booting over the convert, making\nthe final count 13-3.\nThe best game of the day came when\nthe two student squads UBC and Varsity paired off and the fightingest\nteam of the year dropped a close 6-3\ndecision to the champion Varisity septette. UBC opened the scoring when\ntricky George Biddle plunged over\nthe line.\nAs time went on the Varsity boys\ngot together and Russ Latham finally\nbroke through the defenses and made\na sweet run down the field to tie the\nscore at 3-all. The final score came\nwhen Andy Johnston, playing his usually fast type of game, broke over the\nline to make the score 6-3 just as\nthe whistle blew.\nVARSITY AND 'LOMAS\nThe final game saw the rested 'Lomas facing the sweating and victorious\nVarsity crew. Gordie McKee, speedy\nwinger of the student team opened the\nscoring by racing over the line in\nthe first few minutes. A 50-yard run\nnetted the next score as Barney Kirby\nsnatched the leather from a surprised\nopponent and raced over the line.\nMoments later Barry Morris plunged\nover the line again to make the score\n9-0. Then McKee turned on the\nspeed and raced over the line again.\nVarsity couldn't get their foot on\nthe ball, however, and all four convert attempts were nil. Meralomas\nredeemed themselves in the dying moments and the final score of the day\nwas Varsity 12, 'Lomas 3.\nIsland Ruggermen\nInvade Saturday\nFanfares are being sounded this\nweek for the invasion of the Varsity\nStadium by the first out of town\nteam since last fall.

Such fiactors have already\nsnagged two hunks of silver, the\nMiller and Tisdall cups, and the lads\nare willing to add another couple to\ntheir store.
