In this important department of College life, affairs are progressing in a manner that excite the admiration of all beholders. Not only have numerous recruits joined the ranks this year, but the play of a large proportion of them stamps them as long past the "raw beginner" stage, whilst their keenness in of a nature to delight the anxious hearts of the selection committees, and would almost make amends for less capability. As a result, the Club has now four teams upholding its reputation for clean going and a hard game every Saturday, and their general success so far argues well for our final chances of championship honours.

Enthusiasm for a common cause, with the sympathy born of constant association on the field of battle, does much to engender the spirit of camaradie which is one of the finest features of our College life, and in this respect the Ladies' Hockey Club has nothing to learn from its fellow institutions. Incidentally the Club possesses a Secretary who, for the first time in the history of the College, has been guilty of handing in on a Monday the correct result of all matches played on the preceding Saturday. Certainly the result were good, but that is scanty justification for such an unprecedented breach of the sacred traditions of Club secretaryship in the College.

Beere, Bogle, Paterson, Willis, and others have been seen blowing the whistle for practice matches on odd occasions. Hockey is a good game, and a fascinating withal.
