Opening of New Wing

~ 11

~=========rtJ Excerpt from" West Australian," August 16, 19U.

N important function which took place at the Christian Brothers' College, St. George's Terrace, yesterday after­ noon marks an epoch in the history of that institution, and, indeed in the mar 'h of educational progress in this State. The occasion was the offiCial opening of the new wing- just added to the ollege buildings, and the attendance was considerably o\'er a thousand. \mong those present were His Excellency the GO\'ernor (Sir Gerald Strickland), and Captain Selby Slllyth, A.D.C., the Lient.-Governor (Sir Edward St n ). the l{oman Catholic Bishop of Perth (Dr, Clune), Bra, \\' G, Cui ligan (Prin'ipal of Chr,istian "?rothers' College), and a l;uge nnmber of the metropobtan rne~thood, the Colonial Secretary and Mrs, Connolly, the Actln<Y lITayor of Perth (Cr. \\'alter 'il11pson), i\lr. B. C. O'Brien, i\LL.C., TIlt. Harry I ro\\'n, l\I.L.i\., the Mayor of Leeden'ille (Mr. Palll Barrett), Rev. D. 1. Freedman (Rabhi of Perth), the State C III mandant (Li Ill.- olollel In'ing), l\Ir. J. P. Walton (Chief Inspector of Schools), Lady Forrest; (\[rs.

Harry Gregory, i\Ir. \V. J. Ro ney (Clarem nt Training College), h. 1. . Henn (Guildford Grammar School), i\[r.

1'. C. Faulkner (Perth High School), Mr. P. C. Anderson (Scotch College)', and 11'. Jas. Long-more (Sllperilltendent of Charities). During the afternoon the Brothers rec-eived a sheaf of congratulatory messages and telegrams. Prior lo the formal addresses, the visitors, nnder the chaperonage of Brothers and members of the Catholi clergy, strolled through the new premises and acquainted themselves with the latest provisions made for the students of the College.

The additions to the institution mean, in short, that the accommodation of the Colle",e has practically been doubled.

The new wing, is one of three stories, having an over-all length of 162 fl. hy 27 ft., in luding the balconies, which on each of the hibher Hoors ovetlook the courtyard. To appre­ ciate just pr isely what the new wing will mean to the institntion one mu 't necessarily pay a visit of inspect iou, hut a de 'cription of the ,'ariou de artment of the building may cOlll'ey an idea of l he studious attention that has been paid to the comfort and requirements of stndents. COllllllencil)<Yan inspection on the top floor one finds la\'atori s of an up.to­ dale, though qnietly designed, order. Tiled witll opalile tiles and floored with pink-tinted reinforced concrete composition, these lavatories present a highly pleaslllg appearance. Hot showers and cold 1I0wers are pro\'ided with nickel-plated fittings alld connection pipes, each cuhicle being sectioned off with immaculat marhle slabs. The connections are made in su h a way that the whole system, which is now connected with a septic tank, can be easily linked up with the sewerag-e drains as soon as lhe Lord-street drain i completed. The baths are fitted, too, with liquid soap receptacle,,;. Adjoining is a spaciou cOl11munity rool11 furnished with a couple of libraries, a liberal di. play of carved woodwork, and suitable pictures and engraving, while next in order comes an oratory.

In thi sanctuary is reflected a wealth of study in the matter of tone alld harmony of arrangement, the colour blending of the \'ariolls \\'oods, furnishings and carpetings having a di tinctly pleasin<Y effect. The ceiling is coved and of polished jarrah, with cornice board and frieze of oreO'on, the walls being of white plaster and the seating of polished cedar. \Vith the rich carpetings and the tinted lights of charmingly stained windows of rich antiq ue glass a delightfnl effect is gi ven.

A

[ [q

I

• • •

The stained windows in the altar recess were presented to the College by Dr. Kenny, while the stained door medallions were given by [VIr. Frank Kennedy. The carpetings to the altar steps are of Tnrkish manufacture, and were the gifts of ,\lrs.

T. E. V·/est. At the entrance of the sanctuary is an immense shell f nt, the ",ift of fdr . K. GOllzales, of Broome, which is mounted on an bOlly pedestal of fine arving. oluing down a roomy jarrah stairway to the second floor one is shown through the se\'eral Ilew cIa ·s-rooms.

First come:; the Primary Tniversity roonl, at the extreme end of the wing, whose windows c mmand a delightfnl glimpse of the waters of the Swan River. Here seating is [Jro\'ided for 50 or 0 stndeuts.

The" hlackho;\rds," which hy the way are "green "-colonr d, are of composition, and the colour is particularly re ·tful to the eye of the scholar. The ceiling is zinc, tinted, picl,e 1 ont with cYold floral work. Adjoining is the Junior University class-room, this being similarly designed and fitted. Libraries f r reference purpo es are provi led in this room, and also in the adjoining' 'enior Uui\'ersity class­ room. In the senior room, in addition, oue finds an immense showcase containing models and electri al and physical instru­ ments \lsed by the tntors.

Text iu order cOlues a large dormitory, where avenu s of beds are arranged, and the walls are adorned with pictur s of a suitable character. .\s in the other rooms, full care ha' been taken to ensure a snfficiency of \·entilation. \\'Indo\\'s openillg on to the opel! streets on the one hand and to the river balconies on the other. \\'hat impresses one, too, on looking through the institution, i· the care that has been taken in tbe direction of en nring' the m st rapid egress from any part of the building in case of fire ont­ break. The dormitories, like the other rooms, are fitted with pneumatically-geared doors, which in e\'ery case open out­ ward and lead to the balconies, which in ll1l'n connect with terra firl/lll hy the wide tairways already referred to.

On the ground Hoor is situated a commodious games room, .\t the one extl emity are fitted up a couple or rlrsl-rate billiard tables, while at the oth r end are a couple of piauos. r\ chastely-designed bay window open out on to St. eorge's Terrace. The ceiling is of stamped metal and the floor of polished jarrah. A lending library containing a wonderful range of literature graces the south rn end. One of the hief

featl1l'es of this oarticular room consists of Honour Boards.

There are two 0'1' these, one setting forth the scholastic giants of tbe institution, the other proclaiming the succes es of several of the College's representatives in the athletic world.

Heroes of football, cri ket, champions of boxin o , rowing, cras '-country running, and athletic generally from time to time are added to the li t, as well as the winners of Rhodes Scholar hips and the nam 'of those students who are Dni­ vel' 'ity graduates, £450 Government exhibitioners and Higher Publi or enior Honol1l'S men. On this floor also i an immense chamber to be kllo\\'n as the main cla.s-room. Its folding' doors in the centre alia\\' it t he di\'ided as the exigencies of tudy may require, the doors being swung ajar when entel tainll1ents are held. These are a few of the inner d tails of th new structure, which is of brick and Cottesloe limestone, The use of timber in the new building, as in the 01 I I' sections t the 011 ge, has for fi.re risk purposes been redu ed to a minimulll, steel girders, stanchions, and supports taking the placeof timberIng' practically throughout. Another addition \\'ith that of the wing is the provision on the astern side of the C liege of tennis court, these being bordered on the \'ictoria-avenne side by walls of reinforced oncrete with a balustrade. These, LJrieHy lold, compri e the improve­ ments concerning' which the visitors yesterday were enthusi­ asti. oUter dne lime had been allowed lor the inspection, the ringiug of a bell throughout the College corridors was the signal for all to assemble in the rear court yard. Seats were here ilrrang d f r hundr ds. while the remainder of the assem­ blag'e distribut d itself ronnd the omt yard and throncyed the balconie overloobng it. His Excellency the Go\"ernor, with Dr. Clune and party, occupied 'hairs arranged in the centre of the vard.

B;o. Culli"'an (Principal of the Colleg ), who, on rising to speak, was heartily cheered, said that that day was certainly a great day for the hri,tian Brothers' College, and the Brothers must nece sarily feel very proud at the results achieved, and also at the great number of leading citizens who had honoured [he CollecYe with their pr sence. The fi.rst duty that fell to him that afternoon was to thank them all sin erely for their attendance at the opening of the new wing.

He had tried to make that day a parellls' day. It was the

In moving through the uew premises witb the crowd that afternoon he bad beard that" the place was too good for boys." (LaughteL) He did not think anything could be "too good" for hoys-his boys of the Christian Brothers anyhow. (Applause.) The ayi ng I/Iaxima puero reverelltifl,-the grea tes t possi ble re I'er­ ence should be paid to the child-he q'lite believecl in If we, as " grown-ups," expect reverence, then 1 everence should be given to the children who were to be the "grown-ups" of the future, The Brothers had done all they conle! to make the College what it should be, (Hear, hear,) They had spared no expense, and he I\'a,' mar ol'er pleased to be in a position to say that all the money spent on the building had been horrowed in St, George's Terrace. And, if God pleased, it would he paid back there, (Applause and laughter.) He (the speaker) didn't know ",heth r it would, (R newed langhter.) Howe er, they intended to Ill<tke a noble effort to pay it fr, or at least the interesl on it, A gentleman visiting the new lHlilding the olher day had said to 11I1U, "\Vell, l expected something like this fr !l1 you people on a' ount of the money you have at your back" (Lclllghter.) .\nd he had replied, " \Vell, the money at our back lI'a all obU,ined in t. George's Terrace, aud will be p:lid back there," (Laughter,) The reply he had got to th;,t lI'as, "\\'ell, you're an enterprising people, at anyrate," (Laughler.)

Proceeding, he complilnented the archllel'ts of the hllildill"" (Messr', Cavilnagh and Cavanagh), the clerk of works (I\fr.

VI/'. J. ~'IearIls), and the ontra tor (;\1r. Liehe) on the l11allner in which the work had been carried out. He was pleased indeed to see Sir Gerald Stri 'ldand there that afternoon, and expressed regret tb:u Lady Ed line trickland had, due 10 a'l ther engagement, found it impossible t attend. They were also g-reatly pleased, of course, to have with them His Lordship Dr. Clune. (Applause) That ,norning after an ardnous time in the conntry Dr. CllIne had retllrtled to the city, and had conducted what constitnted the real opening of the new wing- with the celebration of High :\fass. Proceeding, Pro. Cullig'an thanked all those who had also assisted at and attended that ceremony. The Christian Brothers had been

established tbere since I 89+-onl y 17 years ago. Brother T. A. 0' I3rien had been the first Princi pal, and, than k God, he was there present with them that afternoon. (Loud appLtnse.)

Brother O'BI ien ha put up the fir~t section of the College, and Brother N U11:1I1 th ~econd part. (Applause.) It had been his (the speak r's) hllnour lo have the eastern wing erected.

I\pplau 'e,) He had c IIle to Perth in 1897, and well he remelllbeled the small ottage they had adjoining the s(;hool. He had reason to do so, because on his putting his first step on to the \'erandah Oil of the boards had stood up and hit him. (Laughter,) Referring to the addition just completed, he said that he had ol'erheard someone that after­ noon in the ('(ames roonl say, on seeing two billiard tables, " \Vhat a shame to teach boys billiards." (Langhter,) I-le would say that If hvys were la I arn billiards at all, let them leitrIl in good sllrroundings. Nowhere, he thought, could they hal'e better ·urroundings than in the College. (Hear, hear.) In COllclllsion, he referred th suc esses which had been obtained by students at the College, and added that in I'iew of the comparatively short pace of time that the College had bpen e tablished the r suits achie\'ed were most satisfact ry.

(Bear, heaL) He hoped that \'isitors that afternoon would be satisfied with \\ hat the Brothers were doing in the upbringing of som of th children of \\ estern t\ustralia, (Loll<i and continlled applause.)

Sir Ger<tld Stri ·klalld. who was heartily received, said that he rose to speak, and, if he might be allowed to do so, to expres appreciation on behalf of all those who had at heart the progress of this State of th way ill II'hidl the additions to the College had been carried ont lInder the guidance of the L I incipal. \Vhen they I oked hack to the days when those of his (lh sp aker',) gellerali n were echlcated in the colleges of Englalld, and then saw the surroundings under which lhe rising generation of \Vestern t\llstralia were going to receil'e instruction, they could not but congratulate the yonng people on th ir fortnne. (.\pp1ctuse.) The education imparted by the Christian Brother. embodied an exceedingly successful effort to grapple with some of the mo,'t diAl. nit questions in connec­ tion with edncation.

(Applause.) \\'hile, speaking in a general sense, edu ation or instruction disasso iated from religion was of very little valu , he would point out that the

work of the Christian Brothers in the College wa' entirely segregated from th prie~thood, In Brother Culligan they had, be wonld remind them, a lllan of \Vorldly wi dom, (Hear, hear.) Sports.IV re very prominent in the work of the Christian Brothers, The billiard room they had ju t heard about, tlie lihraries they had just seen, and BrOlher CltlJigan, realising the I\'orth f these things, had ~uppIied them and others, including el'en instruction in dancing.

Education on these hroad lines, havin lY in view the require­ ments of the rising generation, fitted the boys brought up in the College llot only 10 fight their \Vay in the schools, Imt also to fight lheir Il'ay ontside the schools in a Slate now progressing with marvellon rClpidity. The opening up of the State with railways and the growth of industries resulted in positions increasin lY more rapidly than boys. Th prospect, therefore, of the boy with a good education was fnll of ndle.s possibilities. Long Illay the prosperity of this College, con­ tinued 'ir erald, continue on the same basi... (.\pplanse,) Dr. Illne said that ha"ing sat near His Excellellcy and Bro. Culligan during that afternoon's proceedings, he thought that to him wonld fall the part merely of a junior jndge in the presence of senior jndges, namely, to concnr Illerely and agree with the remark" of his seni rs, Bra. lillig,ln had called on him, however, 10 speak, and he felt it his dllly to do so. Fitst of all, he dc', ired to expres his deli:zht at ~eeing such it large gathering' there that afternoon, The presence of so many citizells of diff rellt . hades of relicyions helief testified to the high est em with which the Christian Brothers' Coil ge was held in the ('ol1lmllltiiy. (J [ear, hear,) It was also a striking manifestation f the appreciation with which their work as edncat rs f youth was relYarded, (Applanse.) The institntion ot the Christian rothers wa just a little over one hundred years old. It had sprnng i:ltO exi:tenc ill Ireland in days when a great want for it had been felt, and when it had come into being, it had ~il'en of its fnlness, it talent, itnd it en rgy t n w land: spreading under the British Ra l f • He did not prOJlose, owing to the inconvenience caused by the heat of lh sun, to enlarge too I11nch that afternoon 011 the successful achie\'elllents of the Christian Brother..

His Excellency had all eady referred to those thing, and to the "salt of the teaching" given at the College. There was,

[ 25 J

however, one aspect that he (the speaker) wonld like to touch on, and that was the manner in w'hich the Brothers seemed to be able, when instru tinO' the boys, to cause an ineffaceable attach men t to grow between 'ch olar aud tutor. (A pplause.) lIe had often met with boys aud noticed this characteristic, while he perhaps him elf, and probably some of those pre ent, had uot had that ardent 10l'e for those who did the teaching in the good old days when cane rule was trinmphant.

(Laughter.) Continuing, Dr. Clune said it was certainly a great thing for the Church t have such a distinguished order as that of the hri tiall Brothers working under its 19is.

(Applause,) In onc1usion, he hoped that the boys of the College would hold their own as 'ucce srully in the future as they Ind done in the past, (Applau 'e.)

The Li Iltenant- overnor ( ir Edward Stone) aid he hacl watched with the cyreatest interest and pleasure the advancement of that ex ellent Collecye. He had heen present when the foundation stone of the first part of the College had been laid, and had heard the r mal ks made. on that oc asion

by Bishop Gibneyas to what the intentions of the Brothers were. It was indeed gratifying to him to see that those thinos thell .aid were now being realised in the matter of educating the youth of \\'('stern ~\ustralia, (H ar, h ar.) The education gi\'en at the C"llege enabled the stnd nt to occupy practically any po ition ill lif whi h might come to him. !lIl'. i\I. 0' a mon"J a h arty Yote of thank to His Excellenc' and Dr. lune for their attendan e. i\lr. H. . f'aulkner (Perth High Scllool), in econding the vote whi h was later carried, said he was glad to have the opportnnity that afkrn00n of saying on behalf of the other econdary . hools of the State how greatly they appre­ ciated the work b ing done by the Chri tian Brothers. (:\pplanse,) IIe had been in the State since and llefore the Br thers came here, and he had seen the progre s they had made. In these days, when so much Il'as continually being said about "flee" education and mHny other things, the building of such a Colletie showed that the Brother were confident about the futnre of this country, ( pplause.)

His Excellency briefly acknowledged the ,ote of thanks on behalf f Dl'. Clune and himself, alld the gathering then adjourned to the pecially arranged refreshlll nt rooIlls.

It is 'mall \I'onder, when one realise' the weight of history England has made npon the ea, that the mind of the YOllllger generation is tired with enthnsIa m at the very thought of a watery contest, whel'e the clearest head and keen t eye, comllined with the strongest arm, demonstrate their ri 'ht to the spoils of vi tory.

Cecil Rhodes there were laid down many regldations under which the Rhodes scholars should I,e selected every year. In deferellce to the wishes therein expressed the trustees appointed under the will drew up a set of mles by which the selection of the proper candi­ date sholtld be governed. These are:­

(f,) His literary and scholastic attainlllents, for which a maximum of 30 per cent. is allolved, (2.) His fondness for and sn('ces in nJallly outdoor sp rts, such as cricket, football, and the like, for which 20 per cell!. is allowed.

(3.) His qualities of manhood, truth, courage, devotion to duty, sympathy for and protection of the weak, kindliness, unselfishness, and fellol\' 'hip, for which 30 per cent 1­ allowed. (+) His exhibition during school days of moral force of character, and of instincts to lead and take an interest in his school mates, for which 20 per cent. is allowed. :,[r, hi lOdes sug"ested that (ii.) and (iii.) should be decided in any school or college by the votes of his fellow-stndents, and (iv.) by the head of the school or college, uut where circumstances rendered it impracticable to carry out the letter of these suggestions the trustees, while hoping that every erfort would be made to give effe t to their spirit, desired it to be understood that the final decision must rest with the committee of selection .

To aiel the committee in making a choice each candidate is required to furnish to the chairman of the committee of selection-Ca) \ certificate showing that he is within the eligible limits of age. (b) A certIficate fmm the head of hi, scllool or college stating that the candidate is, in his opinion, able to pass the Responsions Examination at Oxford. (c) A certificate from his school or college that he bas been selected as the candidate for that school or college who best fulfils the ideas of Mr. Rhodes's beqlle<;t. (d) ,-\ statement from his school or college of the grounds upon which he was chosen, including his educational qualifications, his record in athletics, and such testimonials from his masters at school or his professors at college, in reference to the quahties indicated

by Mr. f<.hodes, as "seem best adilpted to guide the judgment of 1I1e selecting committee.

The committee of selection was free to apply to the candidates or to any selected nnmber of them such further intellectual or other te 'ts as they might consider necessary.

It was provided thilt no candidate should be finally selected without a persunal interview.

The distinguished company were met on arrival by the Princip"l (Rev. \V. G. Culligan), who conducted them around the magnificent college uuildings. which are at present in process of extension. An east wing is being erected which will provide the accommodation demanded by the growing needs of the institution. Both inside and outside the College was a picture. The natural charm of the site and the pleasing appearance of the pre ent ColJeO'e buildings were enhanced by decorations, and altogether the function was one of t he most noteworthy features of the onsecration festivities.

The Cardinal, in whose honour the ceremony was arranged, made a speech admirably fitting the 0 casion. The guests were conducted to the billiard·room in the new wing, where the Principal, in welcoming them, said it was a red· letter day in the hi tory of the institlll ion. . lthouO'h t lIilding operations caused them to be somewhat" llpside-down," they were, nevertheless, pleased to welcome all.

were prog,essing "nd expanding. They were determined to the Perth Christian Brothers' College the leading school III the COllllllonwealth.

(Cheers). Si. 'teen years ago a start was Illade with five scholars; to-day they had 265 and a huilding that was a credit to the city. That day the Cardinal entered upon his +9th year of ordination as a priest, and they were glad of the honoul.

The Company were taken to the large dining hall, where Mr. T. F. Quinlan proposed the toast of" His Eminence and his brother prelates." Everyone would re-echo the sentiment that it wa' all honour not only to the Roman atholics hut to all sections of the community to have su h lIlen among them. (l\ pplanse).

The Cardinal's referen e to religious training reminded him that the Christian Brothers had established a reputation for that second to none throughout the world. It was pleasing that so many not of their belief had paid respect to the prelat ;; who took such a prominent pan in the destinies of the Commonwealth, The Re\". Father Smyth supported the toast. Twenty­ eight years ;1g"0 His Eminen e had ordained him, and to-day he lookeel upon tt e Cardinal as the leadin~ I hurchman of the age .

The toast was drunk with lIlusical honours.

In returning thanks Cardinal 1\loran said they would all retain pleasant memories of the few days they had spent in \Vestern ,\ustralia. It would he very hard indeed for 'fu.:'._ associations to lltrival the hospitality of their many Perth friends. They were visitors from the East-not wise men frolll th sallle place-(laughter)-who had come to be inspired by the nthusiasm of an enthusiastic and progressive people.

Bra. Culligan, in respouse, challlpioned DI'. Callaghel's views regarc!ing the life of a teacher. It was a hard one.

The Christian Brothers' College was ollly one of the fonr great Secondary Schools of \'\!estern A I1stralia, and it ga ve hi 111 the greatest of pleas\,re to see :\Ir. and Mrs. Faulkn r presenl.

Th re was a strong feeling of al11araderie hetween the four. 'vVhen he won the on test the first three to shake hands with hinl were the headmasters of the three other schools, and when he 11Ist he always eudeavol1red to be th fir't to con­ gratulate the victor. (Cheers). This friendly pirit existing LetlVeen the big schools of t he State, coupled wi th their un ited and deterl11ined erG rt to push the clain1S of \Vestern Auqralian students, to advance them scholastil'ally, and to lurn them out " l11en .. in the truest seuse of the word, had in ash rt spa e of time worked wonders III th school \\'orld of this State, and had placed it on so firm a fOOling that \Vest Australian hoy conld now more llielll hold their own \I'ith Eastern boy against whom tliey competed al the i\delaide Ili v rsity Examinations. He thanked Dr. Gidlagher and the ladie:; and gelltlemen th re galheled tllat Illorning to do honour to that distillgllished prelate, the Cardinal, <1nd expr,,~sed tlie hope that it might not he the 1;lst time it \\'o\dd l'e his pleasure 10 greet tliem at, and \\'elcol11e lhem to, the Culleg....

He called llpon their latest Rhode:; scholar, :\fr. J. J. Savage, to reacl and pre:;elll His Eminence with an illllmillated address on behalf of the stlldents.

The address indicated the loyalty of the scholars not only to their school h\lt al<o to their religion and land of hirth.

Cardinal i\'l ora Il , in the course of an eloquent reply, said it would need the st ady alld persistent pllrsllit of all their high ide:l1s to accomplish tli splell id aim of the Principal.

There \\'ere Illany otlier colleges to compete with, but their elltlill"i~sln Idt theln everything to gain.

The third feature was genlline patrioti"m-gelllline love of their native land.

(Cheers). There wa:; 110 Illore noble 'entiment than love of country, and they needed that in Au tralia. The youth of Australia were said 10 be fond of sport; but pleasures were essential to relie\'e the anxieties alld strain of the land in which they li\·ed. They were, however, prepared to forego their ple;lsnre at the call of patrioti~II1, illld one of the sights which h;1(1 g lilddelled his eyes wa ' the soldierly cadets he had admired, 0 IIIlH:1i at the Cathedral.

In fact, a~ far as our College is concertled, we hlld little differ­ ence het ween the work we are doing llnder the new scheme and what we did. \'o!untal ily, under the old 'adet system.

III addition to the Sellior Cildets the scheme provides for the training of what are 'alled Junior Cadets, that is, hoys hetll'een the age5 of 12 and T+ years. These \lIUSt undergo a training in certain physical exer ises, elementary drill and in Illiniature rifle shooling.

The College has a full COllllJallY (120) of Senior Cadets in acti"e trainillg- LlIlder Lieut. Erlllllott; and a Company of 80 JUllior Ca'lets-or a total at 200 cadets. Lieut. Canoll is still in charge wHh Liellt. 13urns next ill command.

Owillg to the lack f the regulation uniform \\"e hCl"e beeu nnable to go in for allY public parades; but the boys are milking such splendId progless ill their II'ork that when they do gE't the opportunity of a public display they are rertilin to gi,"e a g od aCCoullt of themselves.

On the occasion of the Consecration of His Lord,,;hip, Dr. Chine, the old Senior Company fOrlned a "gnilrd of hOllollr" elt the Cath dral eutran' for His Excellency, Sir Gerald Strickland.

The \nnnal Shooting- Competition for the Serondary Schools' Clip, which was initiated last year, took place on Satllrday, December 211d, at }-arrakatta. The ranges shot at ,,"ere the 200 yards and the 500 yard'. The College tean llad to he content with third place, Scotch'College winning, with High School second and the Church of England Grammar School fourth.

One of our repre entatives, however, F. Salll. on, made the highest individual score (62) at both ranges-a score that i likely to remain a record for many years to come.

UE new SciJellle of COllllJulsory :'vIditary Training f r boys betweell the ages of 1+ alld 18 years, wiJich was initiated on January 1st of thi,,; year by tbe ellrolmellt of all eligible candidate~, is ueing graJually 1)ot illto \\orkJU"­ order.

The task of getting the whole system into full operation has turned Ollt 10 be a work of much greater magnitude than the 'lilit3.ryauthorities anticipated. Con­ sequently, althollgh the scheme was launched in its entirely on July 1st, there are still a fell' matters that want attending to I>efore the various Companies call be said to be in complete military swing. I ext year, however, every detail contemplated under the scheme ought to be in evidence on the parade ground.

III the meantime, the boys are getlin a ;[ clean·r con­ ception of what the scheme reqllires of them. :\t the beginning of the year the il11pres~ion was fairly general among the boys that .-\ustralia, henceforward, was a fine It was helieved, and therefore r.ollntry not to live in. drearled, th::lt the h::lrd and disagreeahle drudgery of drill and h;t1f-day allcI whole-day parades, etc., etc., would rob the period of youth of all its attrillllte~ and natural charms.

That idea is now either altogeth .r exploded or considerably modified. Boys are gradually finding out-experiencing in fact-that one of the main objects of the ~cherne is the fostering of those very games, amusements and recreations which, it was erroneously supposed, were to he banned, and without which hoyhood's years would be altogether a dnll, dreary and uninteresting time of life. There is now no mistaking the intention of the military allthorities on these matters. Boys are still to be recognised as boys and en­ cO\lf::lged to go in for all healthy, manly forms of boyish sport.

The Annual Football f\latch between the I re~ent and Past Students wa" a great success in e\'ery respect. The social a~pect needs no cOlllment-everything- being manalYed in that efficient manner characterisli' of all such function', and for which we are indehted largely to the ladies.

Vv'hen we take what might be termed tile physical view, \\'e are compelled to admire the fortilLlc1e of many of the old boys who ignored the Jact that their limbs are not quite as ~upple as they were, and who entered whole-hearledly into the contest al the expeL1se of lheircomfort, I am afraid, judlYing from the number limping around the city afterwards.

But its gleatest snccess was in its being a " grand reuniou " of the old hoys.

Quite a nnmber of erstwhile comrades, who had not seen each other for years, met on the field, Clnd this may have contribuled largely to our defeat. Anyway, it was quite apparent that many were hewildered when the approach of the hall or of an opponenl interrupted a little fl!te-a-Icle, and pleasant recollec­ tion~ were more in demalld than dashes;I1ong the wing.

The Present boys, however, were not masters of the situation altogether, but the old adage, " You t h m ust he served" was coming home forcibly to many at half-time.

The dash of ollle who had been ont of the arena for years was surprising; for instance, W. \Vilte, Herbert Slater and R. Joyce, when not exchanging reminiscences, were showing faint glimpses of their former brilliancy, hnt their presellt f rm is not quite the same as of yore-not qllite the ~;lIne. The number f old boys playillg sellior football this year was smaller than usual. F. Dorney (who W;IS raised to the dignity of captain), C. i\ll'Kenzie and O'Lolr~hlin were play­ ing for East Perth; ]. GlolVrey for Perth; . :VlcCarthy and F. Oliver for V/esl Perth, and \V. Crowder and 'V. Hayes for North Fremantle. n. Cumming, hampioIl Athlete in 19IO, and formerly of Perth team, played very consistently this season for th League le:nn of the f\Ielhollrne University, _corin o ' well over t wenty goal~ before t he team \\'as compelled to watch others struggle for premiership honours.

Rowillg s ems to receive more patronage from the old boys than any other branch of sport-some of our oarsmen being \V. \Vitle, R. Joyce, J. Child (all men who have repre­ sented \,y.A. in Inter-Stale cOlltests), L. Reedy, C, Orton, A. Sadler, H. Reedy, L. Rodoreda, R. Hannah, R. l\-Iorri~,

( 43 I

G. Hannah, \V. Hannah, L. Glowrey, L. O'Sullivan, C. R.odoreda and J. Lul)er.

W. Witte, h. Jayce and]. Child were offered seats in the crew to repre 'ent \V.A. next year, but Child was the only one to accept. This year our crew wou the \nnllal race for crews of old boys of the Secondary Schools of this Stale.

Imhued, 110 doubt, with a desire of furthering the development of this resollrceflll country-capital being a secondary consideration-many of the old boys have enlisted in the ranks of the ., Tillers of the Soil." By reason of their occllpations they are seldom seen ex ept at such times as Sho\\-' week, or 011 the occdsion of a match against lhe " Presents."

Koj IlUp district is being developed by F. Norrish, N. Vilkillson, J. PUIlch, L. \N'eictenbach, Reg. Mare, and C. Gee; l'\. Hodgson is at CUl1derdin, the Slaters at Goomalling, and M. Grover at Katanl1ing. Eric \Vilkie is doing his sklre at \'Viilia.1ns, and J. Flanagan and B. Hallion have gOLle to l\'It. :'larshall-the last-mentioned being the latest convert to the regirlle of fruit and tock. J. Connor and D. Janeczel are in the South-west. f\lanyothers are scattered throughout the farming districts and, according to all ieports, are doing well.

Some six months ago, when J. Savage glided away in the l\lhany expres~. CIl rUllle to Oxford, with the som what discordallt strains of" For he's a jolly good fellow" ringing in his ears, all were !Jel fectly assured that he wonld IIphold the hOl1or of the ollege and the State, but few thought he wonld et about his task so promptly. The daily press has informed us that so far he has paS"ed his R spOl1sions with houours, won the long jump at Oxford, and at Cambridge won easily the hurdle~, and secured second place in the ++oyds. in the Freshmen's sports. Such success, at the desk and in the field, is a fllting reward for the perseverance he displayed in both sphere'. I wondeL' if we may allot him a position in the Eight.

HE Cricket of the pa t year was taken up enthusia ,tically and was attended with a fair IlleaSllre of ~llccess, During the year a great Illany of last year' Second XI. were called upon to fill the places of M, Tray, Derwas Cumming, Johnstone, R. Tray, H. 1\lorgan, Dawson, and two of three others, and with such a numher of young players (eight, to be precise) the Eleven can be said to have done remarkably well by tieing with High School and Scotch College for the Alcock Cup, and by losing the final of the Darlot Cup to High School by a \'ery small margin-six runs, In the last few minutes of the game Smith, who was batting splendidly, was well caught on the boundary, and his dismissal Illeant the record of a well-won hnal to be preserved among the treasured evidences of past High School glory. Guilfoyle, wit h 51 not out in the first inning'S, did almost invaluable wOlk at a time when work of the invaluable type was most needed. Geere, who was unable to take part in the last round of matche , gained the best bowling average for the game, and as a reward for his skill with the leather the yonng left-hander was present d by the Principal with the ball, silver-mounted, with which he had done so well.

For the season nothing of a phenomenal nature was done in the way of big scoring, but the fact that 1,122 runs were made for the season speaks well for the soundness of the

T

hattillg, which, lip tn the last match, has not for years collapsed. In the last game of the season Halliday, of Scotch College, howling remarkahly well caused our batsmen to collapse like a castle of cards is wont to. But then, that is the charm of the game. \Ne never quite know where we are \vith it, and the hest of us are always likely to return ruefully from the creases with a zero to our cre lit-debit. It really doesn't malter much on which side of the ledger it goes.

The highest individual score for the season was 138 by Appel again t the High School. It is the first time a century has been posted again t the"Two-Blues"inacornpetitiolll1latch, and we sincerely trust that it will llot be the last that it will be our lot to regi~ter against them. Appel also gained a bowling record this year hy taking eight of the Church of England G ramlllar School wickets for two runs. That of course was in a First XI. match. Daly, of our Third XL, howe\'er, went one better. and in a match against the Grall1l11ar School Third XI. secured the somewhat startling figure' of wickets for o.

During the year competition matches were arranged by the sports' masters for Second and Third XL's, and though our Second Xl. did not signalise itself, the Third won I heir competition. Besides the matches, games have been played between Fourth XL's, boys under 12, 13, q, and 15 yearS';

A Few Notes by J. HORAN (2nd Rhodes Scholar of C.B.C.) FORD is situat d 63 miles from London and has a population of ahout 70,000. The University omprist"s 21 Colleges ;\IId several Halls.

Colleges vary in size from Chri t Chur h, with about 270 undergraduates. to Corpus Christi I\ith about 60. 13rasenose. my Oln1 College, has about 1 la unclercYraduates.

On enteriug a College an ulldergraduate is allotted a sittingroom and a bedroom, tht: laliler opeuing out of the

O

former.

The Colleges are all huilt so as to enclose quadrangles into whi h all the stairC<lses of the College lead. There may be several such quadrangle,; in a College. ;\'ly own has tll'O. Each quadrangle opens into a street hy means- of a ~or h (called the Lodcye) which is surmouuted by a tower. The Colleges are all about three storeys high-some four storeys -and undergraduate' rooms opeu out from the staircases and are numbeled from the bOttOll1 upwards. Each stair­ case is a.1so Ilulnbered. The rooms number I and 2 on the ground floor, 3 and + on the next, and 5 and 6 Oil the next, and so on. Thu' room iv. 3 means No. 3 room all No. i,·. stairca e. A servant is allotted to every tll'O staircases amj has a boy to assist him. The servants are all men and are called ,. scouts."

Breakfast. lUll h, and tea are erved ill one's oll'n rooms, bnt dinnel- is sen'ed ill the College hall. All me;..!;; ale cooked in the C(llle~e kitchen, and almost anything in the lI'ay of food may he procured pro\'iding notice is given to the kitchen.

Guests may be inviled to any meals, hnt not more than five are allowed 10 grace the festive Iloanl unless special per­ I111S:;lon is obtailled. The College authoriti s direct one's private life, so to speak, detenllining how one I1IU·t conduct hilnself ill allege, what hours must he ohserved, rules for dress and the like. :\ tlltor is appointed by College whose dUly it is to arrange all one" work and to fee it if' carried out.

Roll-call is a s~ecial Colleg-e mattel. At 7-55 in the two winter terms, alld at 7.25 in SUllllller term, one must report himself ttl the Vice-l rincipal or the Bible Cleric He must be flllly dressed to do this, and must do it 32 tinJes out of the 5 days ill residence. (In some College' it is oftener). The penalty for not Join'" so is a tine of £1 for every morning missed. This applies only to fil t and second year men. All undergraduates must be in College or (in ca e of people living out) in their" digs" by tlvelve midnight. Failing to ob 'erve this rule may mean a fine of £5 or being" sent down."

I~owing is the chief branch of sport.

It goes 011 the whole year round. In the October term, which is the begin. ning of the academic year, fresh luen are coached with a view to their taking part in the next term's races. In this term, too, the" University Fours" takes place. These races are rowed without a cox, and, as the river winds very much and the current is strong, one man in the boat has a very ardl\ons time, having to steer with his feet and keep rowin cY at the same time. I n the next term the "Torpids" take place.

These races are rowed on fi xed seal s and College crews are composed of men who have not rowed in their College eight.

The races go on for six nights, with a Sunday in between.

They are rowed in three divisions each night, each division being composed of abont 13 boats. The lowest divisioll starts at abont two o'clock. The boats start 160 feet apart, and each boat strives to catch a!ld bnmp the boat ahead of it. \Vhen a boat bumps-hy actnal contact-the Iloat ahead of it, the two stop and net out of the way of the others racing behind, and the two boats change places next night. The

head Iloat of one di\'ision start bottom of the next division, alld is ](llO\Vn a sandwich hoal." This plan gives boats in lower di\'isions a chance to rise into a higher division. In tiUlnlner terlll the" Eights" take place. There are usually allont 36 boats in this, some Colleg-es entering two or even three boats, These races are rowed on sliding seats, and are rowed on the same plan as the" Torpids," They also go on for six nig-hts alld are held in lvIay. Footllall (Rllghy and Association), Hockey. and Lacrosse Hourish ill the willter terms, whilst Cricket and Lawn Tennis are indnlged in in Slimmer term.

At the end "f t he summer term comes Commemoration \Veek. This week is so cLiled because, on the l\'Ionday after the terlll ends, Honorary Degrees are conferred on eminent men of all parts of the world. Dnring this week, too, balls are held by the Colleges. Each College holds one every three years, so that there are seven every year. Oxford is full of visitors clnring this week, the 'Varsity people bringing np their friends and relations to take part in the gaiety.

There are three terms a year.

Eight weeks, from October 8th or thereabonts, known as Michaelmas Term.

Then six weeks' vacation over Christmas. Then eight weeks' Hilary Term, and another six weeks' vacation over Easter.

Then eight weeks' Slimmer TertII, and thell sixteen weeks' vacation. All big exams. are held in Jnne, that month marking the end of the academic year.

Allstralians at Oxford are holding their own well, and are respected. They are better known than they were at first, allc! ha\'e cre;tted ;l favonral,le impression. They are doing well in all I'ranches of stndy and sport and also enter whole­ heartedly into the enjoyments that follow in the wake of social life at the 'Varsity. l 53 1

~====~2:l Excerpt from rVest A IIstralwn.

T

HE keen competition between the re pr selltatives of Scotch College and om own ::\\"J 11 for the coveted honours of the Football held was quile as keen as in previous years. \Ve felt very much tempted to say it was keener, but, on reflection, we feel constrained to admit that such would be impossible. For five successive seasons our X \' Ill. have succeeded against their powerful opponents, but on four of the fi ve years the margin of victory ha been almo t infinitesimally small, there being little to hoose between the two teams, each of which has put a plendid XVIII. into the field, alld each of which, we are pleased to state, "never knows when it is beaten." \Ve shall not attempt to describe the fin'!.l game, but shall append a utting from the IVest Australian, which fives a description of a lllat 11> .the type of which we wish to see often, whether \\"e are the victors or the vilnqnished. This year the team underwent a great change in personnel. Cunl1l1ing, Troy i., Troy ii., Joh'lstone, Glowrey, Steinberg, Gee, EeynoIds, l\[organ, O'Dea, Samers, and Boland leal'ing school were replaced by Dermer, Connor ii., Conway, l\'IcDermott, Hill, Bovell, Roche, Ryan, McKnight, SeeJigson, Sexton, O'Dea ii., and mith. The Second XVIII. played splendidly, and won the premiership of their division.

SECONDARY SCHOOLS' FINAL Won by Christi:m Brothers' Col.1ege Before the largest crowd that has yet witnessed a school game, yesterday on the Association GrOlllld the rival schools, Scotch College and Christian Brother' College, met in a final match for the premier hip of the Secondary Public Schools' Sports f\ssociation f \\'estern AllSlrillia. Opinion as to which \\'as the better team \\"a divided, each school having gained a 37 poillts victor:y over the other dming the season.

But on yesterday's game, which was won by Christian Brother' College by 8 points, the \I·inners proved their claim to priority, and earned for their College the distin tion of hilvinO"t> t>o'ained the premiership of the schools for five suc­ cessi"e season~. Enthusiasm ran high, and the supporters of ach tea III urged on l he wi !ling plc yers and, if possible, drove them more fiercely into the fray, and moved them to those delightful efforts characteristic of hoys defending, or striving to gain, );;ll1rels for t heir school. These games, which are played fiercely hut fairly, are probably the finest expositions of the game seen on I his side of the continent.

The following boys represented I heir schools in yester­ day's O"ame :-Christian Brothers' College: Boor, Appel,

From the bounce it was seen that both sides they again carried the play inlo their opponents' were determined, and the manner in which they ten ilory, and finished by adding a few singles. threw theluseh-es into the conflict was delightful. "'hen the Ilell hro\lcyht tbe game 10 a clo~e, one of C.B.e.

RI G the year great encouragement h'ls heen given to hathing and .-\Vim­ mlng. The Principal ha~ l11C1de <l standing offer of a medal to any boy who 'an swil1l lip i1nd down Nedlands hathS-i1bollt 100 yards-with the result that at lhe plesent moment almost evelY hoyal the Collt>ge can do the prescribed disl:tnc. For some years, during the ~unllller months, the boarders on Friday afternoons, aCC(lI1l­ panied by some of the l1la ters, hal'e travell d by lannch 10 'edlands and ther , the day's work over, have disported them­ selves in the wClters of the Swan, which at that part are panicIIJally clean and clectr.

This year the cnstom was adhered to, and the Friday afternoon jaunt is most eagerly anticipated by the hoys.

At Easter a Swimmillg' Carnival, organised by Boor, proved a great success, all the evellls heing capably and keenly contested. In Decemher Ihe hig slvim­ ming event of the year-the Inter-Schools'

yards Championship-was won by one of om boys, l\odrignez 11" who, SI iml1ling a swift, strong stroke, led from start to finish and won comfortably by seven yards Rodriguez, who is quite a youllgster, is one of the fastest swimmers in the Stat. He h;ls to his credit the following performances :-Second place, econdary Schools' Championship, [910; School Boys' Championship. I 10; Boys' Chal1lpionship, ullder 17, 1910; C.B.C. Championship, 1911: JUllior H"ndicap (from scratch) 191 I; Second place, Clare­ mont Club Champion~hip, 191 I; ++0 yds.

Chanlpionship, C.B.C., 19JO-1I; Second­ ary Schools' Championship, 191 I, During the year, Boor and Smith have shown form abo\'e the ordinary, and lI'e are very hopefnl that one of these boys will mean the securing of next year's College Championship; anyhow. we can rest assured that our College will be worthily repre~ented.
