Boys' Basketball
Basketball, as usual, was the high-light of the sports year. Though neither the girls' or boys' team was able to drain the victor's cup in the City League they certainly were able to quench their thirst after the Tournament in Salmon Arm. By winning this contest it gave both the Kamloops twine-swishing squads the High School Basketball championships of the North Okanagan. The road to victory was rough going for both teams, more for the boys than for the girls. The latter were hard-pressed by Revelstoke and the boys by Armstrong and Enderby.
During the invasion of Kamloops by Vernon, both our basketball teams lost — the boys by a considerable margin and the girls by a small one. We were just being the perfect host, of course!

Rugby Team
Rugby created so much interest and enthusiasm in its first year that it is thought that this game is destined to replace the now almost defunct game of soccer.
The new game was introduced with a four-team league, coached by that well-known local sportsman, Hec. McKenzie. The teams; The Bombers, Roughriders, Eskimos and Bronks, wer captained by Jim Baird, Harold Gatien, Melville Querns and Bill Smith respectively. The Roughriders went through the league without a defeat but lost the playoffs to the "brawny, bold, brainy Bombers bossed by Baird". The regulars of the "champs" were: Arnold "Flippy" Foulger, (Snap), Georger "G Man" ASh (End), Don "Prof." Griffiths (End), Jim "Cap" Baird (Quarterback), with a strong supporting second string of Pete Claxton, Don. Fisher, Jim Laidlaw and Doug. Carson.
