BOATING. The Boating during the Easter term has, on the whole, been more enjoyable than for some years past. At the beginning of term rumours were abroad in boating circles that a new tub had been bought, and when, a fortnight later, they were confirmed and a new tub, of the most luxurious type, was delivered at the school, boaters could have been seen staring at it with amazed but appreciative eyes. A new set of oars also helped to reinforce our depleted sets. The river during the term has been good to us, and only on one occasion has it flooded. Nevertheless, many cold trips have been endured. In our opinion, the standard of boating in the School is improving. The quality of the rowing in the inter-House races was the best for many years, and the number of boys wishing to learn has increased considerably, as was evident from the number of St. Peter's Fours on the river. Both the Rise and School House have had three fours regularly on the river for the first time in House boating for three years. These crews, most of them beginners at the start of the season, have made great progress. We would conclude this brief note with an expression of our thanks to Mr. R. S. Sickle, 0.P., who undertook the coaching of the Temple crews throughout the term and whose efforts produced excellent results.
