In other sports, the announcement that the cross-country was to be cancelled came as a sad blow to those competitors who had put in so much hard training; in the sphere of hockey we did not remain unrepresented, having Woodruff playing for the 1st XI and Kershaw and Precious for the 2nd XI; and Manor found we were no easy team to beat at squash with many a hard-fought and ding-dong game ensuing. The last item in the physical activities of the House is the C.C.F. The attitude of the middle section of the House towards this must be radically altered if we are to win the inter-House competition. We now turn to the more intellectual activities. We once again have the chief organiser of the School dance in Temple and hope that Piercy will uphold the high standard that was set at the last dance. The Work Cup has always been associated with Temple and with the wholehearted co-operation of the House during the next term it will take a good House to take the pot off the shelf. And finally, Precious is to be congratulated on his magnificent performance in the School concert, which was enjoyed by all Templars. Next term is a very important one with the inter-House singing competition early in the term and the examinations at the end, not to mention a full sporting programme, and I am sure that all Templars will return to School with the motto "per ardua ad astra" firmly imprinted on their minds.
