HOUSE NOTES THE MANOR Our success in games this term may only be called satisfactory, although we won the major event of the term—the House Hockey. We are pleased to be able to report that the Cup which has stood on our shelves for the last four or five years, in default of a competition, is now rightfully ours, and may it long remain so ! Speight is to be congratulated on captaining the School Hockey XI, and Graham on the award of his 1st XI Colours. For their parts in the winning of the inter-house hockey, N. B. Harrison and R. M. Hodgson were awarded House Colours. This year there was welcome enthusiasm for cross-country running. The House team trained regularly, but unfortunately, because of age and other factors, we were unable to do better than wooden spoon standard. Next year , well, we will wait and see ! Whilst talking about athletics we would like to say how sorry we were that Frank was unable to take part in any athletics this term, either for the School or for the House, because of a hockey injury. His absence was felt in our athletics team, although Speight, assisted by Graham, did well in the Seniors. If any brickbats are to be thrown, may they be directed at a halfhearted few who did not fully pull their weight in Standards. It is they who are to be thanked for our finishing last of the House averages. In the inter-house chess, our team, ably led by Jenkins, check-mated their way to victory for the third successive year. We were beaten by very little in the semi-finals of the inter-house boating, a loss we may put down to the inexperience of our crew, but then, as we won the s time, we feel as though the hockey, which was an alternative at thi amends were made for our failure. For the second year in succession we lost the squash cup to School House after having played our way into the final, a failure for which we must blame the absence of the "squash habit" in the House, a lapse of which Old Manorites will be 1
