The Radar and Communications School Officers team finished on top of the league but the hot NCO's team >coached by Sgt. Frank Hamon finally de- feated them. The NCO's started off in the league rather slowly but the addition of WOl "Rusty". Brown and F/S 'Les" Halliwell added the necessary strength ;to overhaul all the clubs 'including the officers: The league commenced the first week of December 1953 and the games were played every Tuesday night with the exception of, Christ- mas week. The .league was com- prised of teams from Electronics, 12 Exam Unit, R & C S Officers, Flight Cadets and Communica- tions. Spirited friendly rivalry o p vailed throughout the entire schedule and many,, close and hard fought games were played, In the semi-finals of the play- offs the Officers had a bye as the Electronics team failed to show. In the meantime the Senior NCO's battled it out with 12 Exam Unit and won in two straight. In the finals the first game saw the NCO's win convincingly and after a real uphill battle finally dispos- ed of the Officers' team in a ding- dong battle with; a photo finish. The NCO's came from behind with a dramatic finish scoring eight points with some fine serving by WO1 Brown and superb spiking. by F/S Halliwell. For the past three years the Officers' team has won the champ- ionship, each time playing off against the NCO's. There was no denying the winners their reward this year. Plans are being made to challenge other NCO Messes in the near future and the Clinton gang should do well against other stations. ;The Senior NCO's team is com- prised of: WO1 "Rusty" Brown WOl "Hank" Dole, F/S "Les'i Halliwell, Sergeant Dick Allen, Sergeant Frank Ramon, F/S Brownie" Brown and F/S "Min- nie" Minault.

PAGE SEVEN THECaLVert SPORTS COLUMN 5efftez9erApeda. #e It would .be passing strange, and what might be termed a reverse play, if a renais- sance in lacrosse should be inspired in this year of grace by -the fair sex. And yet, it is possible. Here in Canada, we dont associate le- crosse, marked as it is by hard checking, with• , erose is no placehe forte rls. As. Played in these Dominions, 1a - y. But in England, it's quite different. While lacrosse is played to a surprising extent by the male athletes on the otherside, it is also a very popular game among the girls, to the point that a team of English women players •is due to tour the United States this year, startingthis month or • next, while a male American team shuttles to England, Possibly one of the reasons for dislike of vigorous body checking in British lacrosse'(and, this dislike applies to hockey, too) is that it has been developed primarily as a woman's game. ` ' St. Leonard's School, St. Andrews,Scotland and Princess Helena College, England, were the first ritish girls' schools to take to lacrosse after Queen Victoria had many years ago watched a game between .teams of French Canadians and Iroquois Indians. The schools did so because it was considered an ideal and rhythmic recreation for young ladies. "Lacrosse" it was stated, "had movemeiats based on the natural body . move- ments, and both sides of the body are brought into play". Its development was hampered by prejudices against the .participation of women in sport, which no doubt was typical of the Victorian era, but following the collhpse of most of such prejudices through events of World War I, lacrosse for girls began to establish itself. By 1930, there were national associations flourishing in all four countries of the United Kingdom. And today, the game rates the third most popular of all women's team games behind netball and field hockey, with its own "international'. Strange,' isn't it, that the mother country should in recent years have taken with more flavor to Canada's own national game, than we in Canada; Your comments and suggestions for fhb column will be welcomed by Elmer Ferguson, % Calved House, 431 Yonge 51., Toronto.
