HOUSE NOTES THE GROVE After a term inevitably curtailed by the 'flu epidemic, we can look back with a great deal of satisfaction. According to the dininghall "roster", we found ourselves in the old hall; the Middles commonroom had been painted; and the other changes were twelve new Juniors and four new House Monitors. P. B. Burbidge, T. D. J. Layfield, D. E. Rayner, and R. M. Wheeler are to be congratulated on their appointments, as are D. Kirby, as Head of the School and the House, and P. L. Bellwood as a School Monitor. The only inter-House sport was Rugger, and the winning of the Senior cup for the third successive year was indeed a fine achievement. After the final, W. House, T. D. J. Layfield, and R. L. Jobling were awarded their House colours. The Junior XV, after beating Temple, found that enthusiasm was not sufficient to defeat School House, the eventual winners. In School teams, Kirby was the Vice-Captain of Rugger, and both he and R. M. Wheeler got their 1st XV caps; P. B. Burbidge and R. L. Jobling were awarded their 1st XV colours, and W. House and S. S. Hobson their 2nd XV colours. T. D. J. Layfield, R. L. Evans, I. S. T. Dutton, P. A. Crossley, and L. H. K. Mackay were members of the 3rd XV. R. L. Evans and A. Gomersall played chess for the School, but the former met his match in the end of term competition,—could it be that our Housemaster has found his best sport? It is good to see the Grove so well represented in School activities, such as the Choir and the Debating Society. In the latter we have four Committee Members and several other prominent speakers. In the play Grovites played a big part both on and off the stage. P. L. Bellwood (leading part), T. D. J. Layfield, D. G. M. Young, and F. D. Lavender are to be congratulated on their excellent performances; behind the scenes, D. E. Rayner was the prop. man, P. A. Crossley and W. I. Macdonald were capable electricians, whilst A. J. D.
