JUNIOR LINE-UP
Charlie Connolly - Quarterback. Charlie handled his team like a vet- eran a.nd when a touchdown was needed he was right there. He believ- ed in giving his team plenty of ad- vice.
Bert McCarl-Inside wing. This was Bert's first year at rugby but we are inclined to believe he ha::~ played all his life. As a plunger he was without a peer·and when he put his head down it was like a torpedo doing its stuff.
Bill Sled-Middle wing. Bill cer- tainly made his presence felt as men of the opposing teams will testify.
Gilford Leinster-Middle wing. One of the best linemen on the team. His plunging was a treat to watch and now he did tackle!
Gordon Collins- Snap. Anoth~r strong man nn tne line. He broke up many of the other team's play and km.rw just where and how that ball should be snapped.
"Armour" Armstrong - Outside wing. His tackling was beautiful to see and he revelled in breaking up extends.
"Chub" Butters - Outside wing. His motto was "the bigger they are the harder they fall" He hit them like a cyclone and was a fast man under kicks.
"Benny" Gold-A lineman who made the other team feel that he was there. An excellent ball carrier and tackler.
Duncan Currie-'Dunc' put heart and soul into the game and helped a great deal in winning the champion- ship.
Howard Shipley-Brother to the famous George and following right in his footsteps.
Jack Owens-Another new comer who was an invaluable asset to the juniors. He broke up plays consist-
