THE
PETERITE. Volt: XX.

SCHOOL LETTER. NEW School-year has again begun, and we are now settling down to what we hope will prove to be a Year of success. We have lost two members of the School-staff—Mr. Clare and M. Marechal, and in their place welcome Mr. Hallows, who, although he is at present unable to play Football, is kind enough to assist us with his advice. Football is now occupying the attention of all. So far the First XV. has not had much success, but it has never yet appeared on the field at full strength, owing to the temporary disablement of four promising players. We hope that we may be allowed to sympathise with Foster upon his bad fortune. One of the chief incidents of note, this term, has been the formation of a Debating Society. Two debates have already taken place; in the second of these quite a number of members spoke, and this gives promise of good debates in the future. In this number of the " Peterite " there are several items left over from last term ; among them are the results of Shooting and Swimming Competitions, and the Batting and Bowling averages. In conclusion we congratulate W. H. Colley upon playing in the Cambridge Seniors' Match, and A. A. Phillips upon playing in the Oxford Freshmen's Match, and the Oxford University " A" Team against Rugby.
