. DOUGLAS RUGGERS BOMB B.C.1.T.

The Douglas College 2nd XV had an easy
24-4 victory over B.C.I.T. at B.C.1.T.
on Saturday, March 19th.

Russ Laurie was outstanding for Douglas
scoring a personal total of 12 points on
the-basis of a touchdown, two drop goals
and a convert. English import, Allan
Dorrington also had a good day scoring’
two touchdowns. The other touchdown for
Douglas was scored by Goron Dennison who
has been appointed assistant coach.

A pleasing feature of the game was the
fine form showed by Sid Wickes and Dave
Longman, both of whom were introduced
to rugby for the first time this year.

Apart from playing good rugger, Allan
Dorrington has been a hit at the Club-
house ever since he presented the Club
with the "yard of ale" jug from the Old
Country.

The Club will be travelling to San
Francisco again in late April to play
in the Golden Gate Tournament. Douglas
finished 9th out of 32 teams in this
tournament last year.

The tournament features top Canadian

from Britain, France, Australia, and
New Zealand. Every team plays 5 games
in two days - a hectic schedule under
the California sun.

The Club meanwhile has now embarked on
its fund-raising campaign to finance its

tour of Australia and New Zealand in 1978

complete because the team had to rush

donate the trophies then, however, to
allow the final to be contested at a
