As usual we were well represented in School teams this term; J. A. S. Berm being awarded his 1st XV Colours and C. J. Pearson, J. R. Wood, Dickinson, C. A. Wood and Oglesby were awarded their 2nd XV Colours. Senior House Colours this term were awarded to C. J. Pearson, J. R. Wood and Dickinson. Junior House Colours were awarded to M. C. Pearson. We are losing five members of the House this term; C. J. Pearson, D. Hargrave, Coke, Dixon and Pettinger. We hope that they are all successful in their new fields and thank them for all they have done for the House. After a great deal of discussion it was decided to produce liarliquinade', by Rattigan, as the House play for next term and preparations are now under way. C. A. Wood is to be congratulated on winning the Northern Under 20's' Fencing Championship this term, and also coming 2nd in the Irish Championships during the summer holidays.
THE RISE We arrived back at the beginning of this term to find A. W. Fieldhouse, R. I. Moss, A. W. Parker and M. A. Summers-Smith appointed House Monitors and D. M. Rawlings and P. M. Shepherd School Monitors. A. J. Gill was also made a House Monitor at half-term. In the Senior House Rugger Tournament we faired rather badly, when we lost to a not very strong Manor team, 6-3. Our Junior House team also lost in the first round to a strong Dronfield team, 21-0. Our team was a weak one owing to the fact that we had only one Junior Colt in the side, but several members of the team excelled themselves in playing with much determination and spirit. At the end of term the Senior House rugger team played a representative side of Old Risites. The match was keenly contested on a Sunday morning and ended in a 15 all draw. A fair but uncontrived result. It was a great success and enjoyed by everybody who played. We hope this fixture will be continued. Although the Rise Society only had one meeting this term it was extremely successful. It took the form of a talk on New Zealand by Mr. Duncan, who had taught there for three years. Finally we hope that the fact that five Riseites are leaving this term will not be too detrimental to the House.
SCHOOL HOUSE At the beginning of term we welcomed Mr. Clark and Mr. Dixon as Assistant Housemasters. We hope they will be happy with us. Mr. A. Groundwater was appointed Head of House and J. N. Yellowley is to be congratulated on being appointed Chapel Monitor. We started the term with only three House Monitors, C. R. Argyle, J. S. W. Cook and Wilson, but the numbers were soon made up to five, with the appointment of Ogley and Hodges. 9
