THE SCHOOL LETTER. N briefly surveying the happenings of the past term we see that they have not been quite featureless. The building of the new Squash Court has proved itself a great asset this last term, not only from the fact that more people can play, but it is now possible to play matches at School. The School has been most fortunate in being able to see the North of England Championship played as well as the American team versus the Yorkshire Rocks. Here, we fear, we are trespassing . on other people's preserves so we will refer our readers to an account below. The new football field, after being under water at the beginning of the term owing to the exceptionally high floods, seems to be in a good condition now, although we fear that it will not prove much drier than the old one. We have at last taken full advantage of the plate so kindly presented by the Oxford O.P. Club, for an inter-house cross country run. The course chosen for this event was roughly about seven miles, and it is hoped to run it annually over the same course. A novel event this term was the House Theatricals on March 14th, a lot of trouble was spent over rehearsing many of these and the success of the plays proved that the time had not been wasted. E. P. Sewell has distinguished himself once again by playing hockey for Sandhurst. He was always considered a fine player at School, besides being almost as good on the ground as above it. At the beginning of this term Canon Bell gave a series of addresses in the School Chapel.
