BRUCE COX-
Good things ar0 not always done
up in large packages and this in- stance not ·an exception. Bruce wa:~ born and educated in Collingwood. For a number of years he attended the Collegiate, where he star,ted his hockey career.
His young heart was first thriUed when he made the Junior O.H.A. iteam which were semi,-:dinalists in 1924. From there his path was pav- ed for gr·eater laurels. He signed up with the Peterboro Srs. and alter- nated with "Ace" Bailey, last year the leading scorer of the National Hockey League.
The same year Peterboro won O.H. A. Sr. Championship. For the follow- ing two years he was slated to play
~n ,the Tor10nto Meroantile League and from there drifted to the Port Arthur Senior.s, winners of the Allan Cup 1929 which is emblematic of th·~ World Amateur Championship.
HAWLEY (HUCK) WELSH- Another Collingwood product who has cut a prominent figure in the Athletic world is Huck. His line is football, having been taught his first few lessons by our esteemed teacher, L. J .Stapleton. On his removal from Collingwood to Hamilton he secured a regular position on the half-lin':! of the Delta Collegiate Senior team, which in 1927 won the Sr. lnter.schol- astic Championship of Ontario. h,s natural abil!ty was noticed by Mike Rod,den who signed him with tha
starred in the last two years, when they won the Dominion Rugby Championship for two consecutive years. Much of their suc,ces.s was due to Huck's kicking ability.
ROBERT (BOBBIE) MORRILL- One of the flashiest centres in Amateur Hockey, broke into the Na- tional winter pastime in Collingwood at the Collegiate. He was a member of the Junior O.H.A. semi-finalists and while a member of this team outplayed Ho~.vie Mor~enz, now the star centre of the Canadiens. After playing Int. Hockey in Collingwood for several years he left for Port Colborne where last winter he was a big factor in aiding them to win
the O.H.A. Intermediate title. BERT McLEOD-
Started his hockey like a number of others in Collingwood. Graduating from our Collegiate he took his de- gree in Pharmacy and while at Var- sity starred on the Inter-Collegiate team. He op,ened a business in Peter- boro and in his spare hours lent a willing hand to the Peterboro Senior O.H.A. team which captured the 0. H. A. title.
He was lured into professional hockey and ha.s been displaying his ability for Kansas City for the past three winters.
BERNARD (BERNIE) BROPHY - Rated as the fastest skater in hockey. Bernie broke into hockey at the collegiate from which he gradu- l'l.ted. He played on the local Jr. 0. H. A. semi-finalists and also starred
at Rugby for Queen's University. Leaving home he played for the St. Mary's Juniors who were also juniol' £emi-finalists. From Toronto he mo-;,r-
