the leadership of Sgt. Dench, after keeping the lead for the whole of I term.

Table tennis has also been played enthusiastically (and daily) by many of the House, and the Senior Knock-out Competition was won by Neale.

Finally, we have to say goodbye to Matthews, who is leaving this term and going into the Army ; we thank him for all he has done for the House and wish him every success in the future.

GAMES COMMITTEE

At a meeting held during the Christmas Term the conditions governing the award of the Oxford Cup were reviewed and changes were made, notably in the allocation of points and in the inter-house events which are to be counted in the competition. Noteworthy innovations were the introduction of fencing and the award of points for second place in certain sports. The table given below, which includes the results to date, shows the details of the revision, except that for the current year Swimming will still carry 20 points. In 1947.48 the award will be 10 points for first place and 5 for second place.

Another resolution of the Committee relates to School games. In future 2nd and Colts colours will be awarded, the recipients to sign a special Colours Book.
