REPORT OF THE SECOND CANADIAN INTERCOLLEGIATE GYMNASTIC COMPETITION by Mr. Lome Davidson Chairman C.l.C.C.A . University of Alberta, Edmonton On Sunday, February 25th, gymnasts from eight Canadian universities competed for the second time in the same number of . years for national honors. Earlier in the fall of 1967 it was doubt· ful that the university gymnasts would meet during the current 67·68 season. This feeling was soon allayed due to the en· thusiasm and energy of a new Canadian physical educator at St. Francis Xavier,

Geza Von Martiny. Geza, as well as others, feels 'strongly about the development of gymnastics in Canada and especially de· velopment at the university level. When he became aware of the possibility that there may not be any inter·collegiate competitions this year, he took upon himself the task of organizing the intercollegiate gymnastic competition and contacted the universities and C.I.A.U. The result was a most successful com· petition for both men and women held at St. Francis Xavier at Antigonish, Nova Scotia. The Maritime provinces were repre· sented by University of New Brunswick,
NORTH VANCOUVER RECREATION CENTER Recently a very successful display and clinic was given at this center by the Seat· tie "Y" Girls gymnastic team. This event was sponsored and organized by the "Flicka" Gym Club. Close to 500 people attended the display and 135 registered for the clinic. ,,~mong the 16 members of the Seattle Y team were such top gymnasts as Joyce Tanac, 2nd place U.S. national champion
and Sandy Hartley, 2nd place Canadian National champion (presently training at the Seattle Y), Mrs. Dale Flansaas (former U.s. Champion) and Mr. George Lewis. Credit for the organizing of such an excellent event must go to Mrs. Gladys Hartley (B.C. women's provincial coach) and the head coach of the FLICKA gym club and her assistants, Bette Shaw, Alex Moorhouse and Ed Nicholson.
Dalhousie University, Acadia University and St. Francis Xavier. Central Canada was represented by McMaster University and McGill University. Western Canada by University of British Columbia and Un iversity of Al berta. Un fortunately teams from other Canadian universities were not able to participate but it is the hope of all attending this year's co mpetition that many more Canadian universities, if not all, will be able to attend the third annual intercollegiate gymnastic com petition in 1%9. This place and time is to be announced in the near future. Durin g the competition, time was taken out by the coaches present to set up an interim executive committee for the formation of the Canadian Intercollegiate Gymnastic Coaches Association. Members of the executive comm ittee being Geza Von Martiny, St. Francis Xavier, Don Eagle, University of New Brunswick from the Maritimes; Digby Sales, McMaster University and Miss Willeme Moffatt, McGill Universi ty from Central Canada and Bruno Klaus and Lorne Davidson (Chairman) from We~tem Canada. The Western Canadian Universiti es took top honors in both divisions, U.B.c. winning the men's team award with individual all round being won by Bill Mackie and University of Alberta, Edmonton winning the women's team honor and individual all round being won by Miss Lynwen Peel. I feel sure that all present, coaches and gymnasts, were most impressed with the conduct of the Second Annual Intercollegiate Gymnastic Competition and would wish a hearty and warm thanks to be ex· tended to Geza Von Martiny, the Director of the meet and to all the staff members of St. Francis Xavier for their assistance and hospitality. I am sure that all gymnasts and coaches were made to feel at home. Finally, good luck to you all in the com ing year. Looking forward to seeing you all again at next year's intercollegiate competition and it is hoped to see many new faces. Thank you Geza - we all welcome you to the Canadian scene and hope that we can maintain the ex ample of en thusiasm and energy you have demonstrated for us .

L. Davidson, Univ. of Alberta, Edmonton. Western Section: Mr. B. Klaus, U.B.C., Vancouver; Mr. C. L. Davidson, Univ. of Alberta, Edmonton. Central Section: Mr. D. Sale, McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario; Miss W. Moffatt, McGill University, Montreal. Eastern Section: Mr. Don Eagle, U.N.B., New Brunswick ; Mr. Geza von Martiny, St. F.X. University, Nova Scotia. As I understand it, this association is for men and women. A set of rules and constitution and by-laws are now in the pro· cess of being drawn up. A tentative date for next year's championships has been set the last week in February or the first week in March. Discussions have taken place with the C.I.A. U. It is important that all conferences recommend gymnastics to the C.I.A .U. as an intercollegiate activity. For further information write Mr. C. L. Davidson, University of Alberta, Edmonton. 7
