WIN THREE SCHOLARSHIPS On the basis of this competitive examination, Lowa Allaye was awarded one of the King Edward VII Scholarships, Peter Ulrich the Government Educational Scholar ship, and Roland Soares the Ines Soares Scholarship. To win three valuable scholarshipe is undoubt- edly a notable achievement. More-in over the general results show-that the students had attained a high

standard of work in the important subjects, thereby justifying the School henceforth to claim a place in the local educational world.

COMMERCIAL SUBJECTS?

Only a very small number of the pupils attending this school have a Universty education in view; no less than 95 per cent. wish to be equipped to earn a living as soon as they leave school. They should therefore be prepared for their greatest success and usefulness in the commercial professions. "Many of these leave without having pass. ed any external examination and are thus handicapped in the race

fór employment. A post-certificate course in the commercial branches would greatly benefit those who can afford time and money on it; but for the majority of such boys the best solution of this problem would be the inclusion of the com- mercial subjects and also of draw- ing in the School Certificate syllabus.

Miss Gray played a wonderful game in defence and should easily qualify for the Interport team on yesterday's form, but Miss Smalley was slow at times, although she spolled well throughout.
