EDITORIAL.

A GLANCE at the University intelligence will show that the reputation of the Collf'ge has been worthily sustained in the recent examinations, both by Old N ewingtonians and by those who luwe just matriculated. At Matriculation, the second and fourth places in Classics, and the third and sixth in Mathe­matics, fell to us, with the Scholarship for Classics. In the other years the Scholarship for Classics, the John Harris Scholarship, and the Renwick Schola1·ship, together with the W cntworth Essay Medal, the English Essay P1·ize, and the prizes for Pathology, and Materia Medica, wore gained by Old Newing­tonians. These successes show not only that our boys are taught well, but that they are not crammed. The proof of sound and solid education is not merely in the immediate results, but the future dewlopment. l£ boys gain brilliant successes at Matt"iculation and then utterly collapse, it is plain that they have been unnaturally forced, to the detriment of thei1· real progress. It has been remarked of a certain school in Enghmd that half the Sixth won Scholarships at Oxford or Cambridge, but none ever succeeded to a Fellowship-they were worked out. Y.l e should be sorry to have that said of Newington, and we can point to the success 0£ 0.N.'s, like Abbott, Vallack, and Parker, as well as \Volstenholme, Curlcwis, a.nd Curnow, as evidence that such is not the case. But while they do not overwork, we trust our present boys will not fall into the opposite error, but work honestly and healthily, to bring credit to t hemselves and the College.

From the report of the meeting of the Senate, held on 5th May, we see that \V. L. Curnow, B.A., has been awarded the Wentworth Essay ::\ledal (open for competition to all Undergraduates.) As noted above, Curnow is also the winner of Prof. McCallum's English Essay Prize, open f'or competition to all Students of the Third Year iu Arts.

WIGRAl\I-ALL.l<JN SCHOLARSHIPS.

AN Examination was held in l\Ia.rch to a.ward three Wigra.m-Allen Scholar­sh ips, of the annual value of 16 guineas ea.eh, for Classics, Ma.thematics, and General Proficiency, respectively. The results were as follows:-

Curlewis ... 144 144 D. Edwards will be recommended to the Council for election to the

~cholarship for General Proficiency, E. C. Hall for Classics, a.nd J. Kershaw for Mathematics.

In recognition of the excellent results gained by D. Edwards and E. C. Hall, the Hea.<l Master has promoted them to the Sixth Form.

It is interesting to note how close the marks of the first two this year arc to those of the tirst two last year for General Proficiency. Edwards has 436, Gill lmd 435 ; Hall has 427, Halliday had 429. The marks for ('lassies are somewhat higher this year, viz., Edwards, 156 ; Hall, 148; as against Gill, 147; Ualliclay, 131. This looks well for our future success in Classics. C. Gurlcwis, 144 for Classics, deserves special mention. If he worka well he ought to do something in two or three years.

SPORTS' DAY.

THE Fifteenth Annual 8ports' )leeting was held on Thursday, l,ith )fay, at the Association Ground, )loore Pa.rk. The Sports' Da.y lmd been fixed for the frevious Tuesday, but owing to the delay in commencin~ the Tennis 'I ournament ea.used by the recent mins, a deputation of 'I ennis players came to the College to ask if we would postpone our :'!ports so as to give them time to finish, which our Game Committee granted. This yea.r we were labouring under great disadvantages, owing to change of ground, chan~e of clay (from Saturday to Tuesday), and then the post­ponement of Sports till Thurs<lay; all these would tent! to a 1lecreMe in attendance, hut as the afternoon drew on it was foun<l that the attendance almost equalled that of last yetU'. The day was simply perfect as regards the weather, a.nrl the punctuality of the mces added greatly to the pleasure of the onlookers and success of the Sports. The day opened with the preliminary heats of the 150 yds. Open, the final of which was won, after a splendid race, by D. S. Edwards, who surprised everyone this year with his splendid running, winning the 100 yds. Championship of College, with N. Strickland, three yards behind him, second; he also well upheld the honour of the College in the All Schools' Championship; although he lost his start, he won the second prize, coming in half-a-yar<l hchincl {'. Y. Deane. The Hurdle Race was won by S. Tout, with )1urchi~on secon<l. N. Strick­land won the College Cup, scoring 16 points (two firsts and two seconds); he came first in the 220 ycls. and Ho.If-mile, o.rnl scconcl in the 1;>0 yds. and Champion. Only two started for the Visitors' Hurdle Race, which was won by B. <.:lasson (0.N.), who also won the Visitors' Hi!$h ,Jump with J feet 3 inl'hes; he jumped well in the Pole Jump, commg second to Halligan, who jumped 9 feet 1 inch. The Old HoyM' 220 ycls. WI\!\ won hy C. T. \Va.y, who undoubtedly ha.cl too much ho.ndici~p, with 'l'. 'l'iclswell tt

good second. Only three started for the 'l'hree )Iile Bicycle Race, which was won by W. Hitchcock, who is an Old Newingt.onian. The Visitors' 2'20 yds. excited a great amount of interest, and was won, after a. g00<l race, by the scratch man, \V. )facphersou, with E. H. Marks 9 inches bchirnl him.

During the afternoon the Baima.in Coldstreo.m Ba.ml played at shol't intervals on the lawn.

CRICKJ<jT SEASON, 1889-90.

\VR may look ha.ck upon the pa.at season as one of the most successful seasons that we ba.ve had for years, both for the First and Rccoud Teams. During the sea.son the First Eleven played 2'2 matches, won 9, lost 7, and drew 6, four of the latter being in our favour. Although not the Champion ~chool this year, we ha.ve earned the second place, the Ommmar ~chool luwin!{ too good a team for any that we could put in tho field. Out of two matches with the Gramma.1· :School, we were deftmted twice ; hnt we ea,ily defeated the High Hchool and Ht. Igmltius. We played three nmtdw:i with the King's !-;chool, and won one, lost one, and the other was drawn~ greatly in our favour. We played St. Joseph's College twice; in one match they tlefea.ted us, but we drew the other mt~tch in our favour. In matches with outside teams we have been \'cry eucccfisful, and tluriug the latter half we won all the matches tha.t we played agi~iust other tlmn school teams. Our success this season was mainly clue to tho ln~tting of the two Palsers and Kennedy, a.nd the bowling of Kennedy aucl R. llliller. Tho highest score of the sea.son (82) was made by K L. Moses against tho Waterloo C.C., ancl the second highest wa.s maclo by T. )filler against King's School, namely, 70. The Second Eloven ha\'e played 12 matches, out of which 6 were won, 4 lost, and 2 drawn-both of the latter being greatly in their favour. Their success is greatly 11 uc to the batting of Sinclair and Thomp~on, both having au a.ggregato of 12'J, ancl Lovegrove with an average of 11.3. Sinclair also has a. creditable bowling average of 5.6 runs per wicket.

l ST XI. V. FORT STREET TRAINI:<Cl 8t'llOOL C.C.

Played on 15th February on our own ground. In this match we reversed our former defeat, and won, after a close match, hy 10 runq; the first team scoring 76, lllr. Buchanan (27), 1mcl Moulton (26), contributing the greater part of the score. In the bowling Moulton succeeded in securing six wickets at a cost of 8 runs for ua, ancl for the Training Hchool Ford~ took three wickets for 4 runs.

lST XI. v. SYDNEY ORA)IMAR ~CHOOL. This match was played on 4th Ma1·ch, on the Rushcutters' Bay Q,•al,

when we were for a second time defeated. The ground was wet when the match began, but dried a good deal in the course of the day. At first it looked rather like a win for us, the first five wickets going down for 12 runs; but before the innings closed they increased their total to 119. K J. Palser was the only one to make a stand for us, playing nearly throughout the innings for 32 ; but he was dismissed just before the close of the innings by Deane. Appended are the scores :-R. L.

was played on our own ground on 19th March. Owing to the rain, which came on just as the King's School went in, our bowlers were unable to stand, and so we lost the match by 5 wickets and 3 runs. .l!'or us, E. Pa.Iser played a splendid not-out innings for 47, carrying his bat right through the mate h.

LAWN TENNIS.

H1..,cE the Tourmiment held in December last, Tennis hns been on the decline. ThiR is no douht owing to the wnnt of a good court. If an asphalt court were laid down a hope we are afraid never to be fulfilled we should have players in abundance.

i)ince Christmas a few nmtche>1 have been played hy the few remaining Tennis players: the results are given below. The team hns been fairly snccessful, and all the matches have been made very enjoyable, owinp; to the hospitality shown to us hy the various clubs that we have visited. A match was played against the Sydney Grammar Hchool, and, after some very close and exciting games, we were beaten by 4 games.

Flashman and Edwards, who have been always most enthusiastic iu getting up matches, have, as usual, been playing well together, and in the four matches given below, htwe won 1;; sets to their opponents' 4 sets.

The following are the resul~ :-

(;ADET Rn·Lb TEA)IH hardly begin their ephemeral existence nutil after the Midwinter vacation, while the close of the year witnesses the terminatiou of their short and uumitural life. And it is herein we are so heavily handicapped when pitted against a club like the Naval Brigade or Sydney R:eserve Rifle Club. We can hardly expect to repeat our performauce of last year, when we beat the Hydney 8cottish, tied the Naval Brigade, and were beiiten by the N.A. V. 's by only 12 points. Fancy a team of preseut boys beating or tying a First University, or Arforma, or "'allaroo Football te1rn1. Yet it wu.s senior teams of the same standing as these football teams that our boys met so successfully last year on the rifle range.

The remnant of our hist year's team has dwindled down to four, and we cannot be expected to meet other clubs until six more of our boys shew something like good form. But, after all, when boys are willing to practise regulo.rly, the difficulty of forming a new team is reduced to a minimum, and we are glad to say that, thanks to the good example set by our olcl shots, Col.-Hgts. Kennelly and Blatchford, Hgt. ~liller and L. -Corp. Bartlett, regular practice has been kept up hy all those likely to slmpe well during the year.

The p1·oba/1fo tca111 fol' out· first matches will consist of (in ,.,Jdition to the four old shots mentioned above) Sgts. Hardy and G. Litchfield, Corp. ~lurchison, L. -Corps. F. Tout and Strickland, Cadets Bull and R. L. Webb.

Some fairly good shooting was done for five members' tickets, which had beeu presented for competition during the last month. The following was the order of the prize takers: -Col.-Sgt. Kennedy, Sgt. Hardy, Sgt. Miller, CoL-Sgt. Blatchford, Cadet Bull, and Sgt. Litchfield.

The Carbine shooting has suffered a revival this season, and we sincerely hope that those at present shooting will keep it up, and not object to a few kicks now and ag,~in. !•:very boy shoulrl take interest in something outside his lessons, and we should like to see all our young shots strive to be like the model educated-young-man, and know (a) everything about something, and (b) something about everything. a + b is, we fear , an unknown quantity as yet in the halls of Newingtou; but while there's life there's hope, even for such elementary shots as Allen 8herlock. The Committee of the Carbine Club determined to thrnw three pri7,es open for competition before the ..\1idwinter vacation. The following, who really constitute our Carbine team at present, are leading :-Cadet Bailey, Corps. P. Thompson and Buzacott, and Caclets ,V. Rigg, Busby, Tasker, C. Thompson, Currie, ~fauce, and A. Turner.

THE N EWlNGTONlAN.

Strickland has been appointed L.-Corp. of the Bnnd. And Band­master Westbrooke tells us he is a distinct acquisition, both on account of his excellent playing and of the good example which he sets to many of the younger banrlsmen, who certainly need it, for baurlsmen or banclsboys seem to be, and to pride themseh·es on being-shall we call it-" high­spirited. "

The following pl'Omotions have been made in the Corps:­L.-Corp. G. Litchfield to be Corp. of the Rifles. Cadet F. Tout to be L.-Corp. of the Rifles. Cadet Strickland to be I •. -Corp. of the Band, and to ra11k as

• ·b"T!m the close of a very successful cricket season we ha\'C begun our football season. l!'l'Om last yeat"s Champion Team we lmve eight remaining. The School Challenge Trophy should prove i\ stimulant to all those who wish to be pick eel in tbe First Fifteen, and it is to be hoped that all will turn up regularly to practice, and will also train well. \Ye have three practices every week one on .Monday, one ou " 'eclnesday, t\ncl one on Friday. These practices arc usually well attended, but one clay owiuK to the Friday practices not being well known, only a few turned out. Our first match this season for the Championship will be with the King's Hchool, and this should prove a very exciting match. Hoth om· Heconcl and Third Teams will have three matches each with the King's School ancl with the Grammiu· School, o.n<l this should induce a number of the smaller boys to turn out.

t"IRST ~'IFTEJ;;s- \". SYDNEY.

The College started the Flea.sou well by beating the 8yrlney Team by six points to three. The College was helped by the services of some old boys, who played hard to maintain the honour of their old School. The pla.y of the boys was excellent, especia.lly that of Tout and R. ~liller, who played the best game on the ground. ~.Uller repeatedly ~topped the rushes of thcir forwards, who were about 1.3 stone heavier tlmn ours. Bruce, T. Millrr, Kong Sing, a.nd Carr t•lso played well. For 8yclncy, Nelson, Booth, Bassetti, and :M:aideu played hard to :wert defeat.

-+-LITERARY AND DEBATING 80CIETY.

SINCE our la.st general meeting we ha.ve held four ordiuary meetings, which, on the whole, have been ,·ery successful.

On the 2lst of l<'ehuary the evening was devoted to Readings and Recitations. The following members, all of whom were favourably received, contributed :- :\lessrs Fulton, Orr, Corner, Swyny, and Kershaw.

A Debate, "Which is the more useful, the Army or the Navy?" occupied the evening of March 7th. Mr. Litchfield opened on beha.lf of the Navy in brief terms, and was supported by Messrs. Fulton, McRae, Sinclair, Crossing, Matthews, Fletcher, and Ireland. Mr. Ho.llido.y warmly opened for the Army, and was supported by Mr. Ho.II a.nd Mr. Watson. The voting resulted as follows :- Navy, 12; Army, 5; and Neutral, 4. Nearly all the members spoke on the subject, which goes to shew that they are throwing off all their former modesty.

Tng NEWINGTONIAN.

Impromptu Addresses were set down for )larch 2Ist. All the members received suhjects to speak upon, but u~ all the papers were distributed at the s11me time. none of the addresses except the firMt cau properly be called Impromptu. Nevertheless 111\ the members gallantly responded, and spoke without any pressing.

A novelty was introduced on April 18th in the form of u Mock Election. Two out of the five contestants failed to appear, but the two seats were hotly contested hy the other three. Mr. Swyny opened first for Pro­tection, arnl on resuming his SC.'\t was closely questioned. ~lr. Dey, as the champion of Freetrude, then explained his views, and on being severely (JUCstioned seemed ra.thcr nonplussed. )fr. Watson then spoke in his free and lucid style in favour of Single Tax. The voting resulted as follow! : -Dey (l!'. ), 11; Swyny (!'.), !) ; Mr. \Yatson (S.T.), 7.

Our attenchnce lms been very ~ood, averaging 22. The Rociety has also heeu greatly aided by the aet11·e part )!r. Watson has played in it, ancl the interest he h11R ~hewn.

KENNEDY, MILLER, BLATCm'ORD, a.nd BARTL£'TT a.re a.II that rema.in to us of last year's Champion Rifle Team. MILLER has ha.d the honour of being for two years a "treble blue," which means, being interpreted, a member of the three first-tea.ms, in football, shooting, and cricket.

Two old Newingtoniane, the brothers ROBINSON from Young, have been complimented by the Sydney Mornin!J H erald on their brilliant pla.y in the recent Intcrcolonial Tennis Tournament on the Associa.tion Ground.

We arc sorry to hea.r that so few of the olrl cadets from Newiogton and other higher schools have joined the recently-formed Senior Cadet Corps. With the exception of three of our old boys, ~luhs, Peate, and Beaumont, the Corps is compoHed almost exclusively of Public School boys.

T. P. CARR (0.N.) has returned from Queensland, where he wa.s staying, and now resides in Hydney. CARR played with the Queensland Football Team a.gainst New South Wales, and he now plays with the Arfoma Football Club.

P. B. CoLQu11ous (0.N.), the noted Footballer, was one of the players chosen to play for New Sonth \Vales in the Lo.wn Tennis Tournament.

We a.re sorry to hear that T. P. CARR, while playing for us a.ga.inst the Walla.roo Football Club, injurer\ his a.nkle. He has very kindly promised to pla.y with the College when required.

By the kind invitation of their Instructor, Mr. RENSHAW, a dozen of our aspiring gymnasts visited the Y.M.C.A. to witoesR the skill of Mr. RENSHAW'll Senior Class. One of the membet·s jumped 4ft. 7in. in a stand.

\Ye have to thank T. ~hL1,1m, E. J. ~IoULTON, 1\ml 0. Kosc: H1so, for their beneficial aid during the past cricket season.

In the recent Intercolonial Tennis Tournament, P. B. CoLQUHOUX (0.N.) and his partner took second pri?.e in the Double Championship of New South Wales.

S. ROBI!'SON (0.N. ), took second prize in the Gentlemen's Single Ha.ndica.p. Of this pla.yer the Sydney Mon1i11!J Ilerald saya :-" S. ROBIN· ~ON showed to great advantage in this event, and with a. little more experience in match-playing will be very hard to beat.·· This player aL'!O ea.me second in the competition for the Country Cup.

Through the kindness of A. RAMSAY (0.N. ), we ha\'e received copies of those numbers of the Nni•inytonian which are now out of print, and would remind those desiring them that the cost of the reprint varies inversely as the number of subscribers, which, at present, is mther limited.

CORRESPONDENCE.

1'o the E'ditor of the Netoinutonian. DEAR Srn,-Whilst the Hports arc fresh in everybody's memory, I should like to take the opportunity of "making a. few rcma.rks," which, unlike those proceeding from the wearisome platform ma.oufacturer, can be readily cscapecl by the rcailer of your )fagazine. I should like, tirst of all, to call the attention of the Olcl Boys to the fact that their entries fell from 24 last year to 12 this, and to point out to them that one way of showing interest in the olcl Hchool is to semi 1m entry or two, accompanied by fees. This method is highly rccommcmlc<l hy the Treasurer of the Athletic Club. There iire severnl Old Boys who stick by their School in a way which mu8t command the admiration of tholi!e who apprecia.te pure generosity and

patriotism. On the other harnl, a letter came from Mr. X., asking me to send him some tickets, and adding {by wo.y of reason, I imagine), "We Ol<l Boys have not lost a.II interest, you see, in the Old 8chool." I coul<I not help thinking, as I throw the letter into the waste-paper basket, that if all the O.N. 's shoulcl act on this principle it would cost the Athletic Club a l1u·ge fortune iu postage stamps to n111intain the interest spoken of. (There is no punning intended about principle and interest.)

Secondly, as I was rushing about yesterday, endeavouring to discharge the 1lutie~ of a. Secretary, I was delayed by one of the g1\temc11 at the Association Grournl, who wi8hed to s.-y, in the most spontaneous manner, that in his experience he had not known such excellent behaviour ou the pa.rt of the juvenile section of the spectators. :\Ir. Gregory's testimony was also quite voluntary, and equally favourable.

Fourteeuthly, and lastly, I think the Committee should t.ake some action next year to prevent the failure of the Tug-of-War, which h1lfpcnccl yestcnlt•y through the defcctiou of some of the Day-boys. In al other e\·ents it is optiom\l whether•• competitor start.~. hut, fot• ob\·ious rclll!ons, it is not optio1ml in the Tug-of· War. The right of refm1ul 1loes not ext.encl heyo1ul the selection of the teams. If the D1\y-ooys cannot meet tbo lloort!ers, the Committee woult! consult the interests of attractiveness if they armnged some other sides, su.y, Newington ag1\inst All Hcl1ool•, or if tlllit he considered too "soft'' (for Nowington), st\y, BoyR Y. :\lastc1·s, the cake to he guamnteed to the latte1-.

In conclusion, some grumhliug was indulgccl in becn.11>•e the pro$rnmmcs dill not pre"eut tha.t sheeny all(! satiny out..!idc as of yore. It will explain matters very clearly when the mere facts are stated. Last year the C'luh sustl\inecl a deo.d loss of ten pounds on the progmmmes 11lone, owing to tho fo.ut tlmt the 3000 mtde spectators (I tillow :moo for l1vlics) purchasc1l on the twcro.ge two-ti fteenths of a copy, or ahout four page><. This year thu Committc.-c sustain~ no loss, but it is iustructiYe to note thu.t only :i.-~1 programmes were solt!, leiwil1!-: ),)() for purpo"c" of rcfcreuce duriug the yCtlr. Let the grumblers inwar11ly cligest tl1<1t \\ibc l!a.} iug, " l'ut yom· coat accorcling to your cloth."
