PRESS CLUB Nine C under the direction of Mrs. Gavinchuck put out a very successful school paper this year. Papers were issued every second month and nearly all rooms had one hundred percent subscription. Our school exchanged papers with other Junior High Schools throughout the city. This gave us new ideas as well as an opportunity to see what other schools were doing. Although there was a job for everyone in the room, those who were at head of the different departments were: Carol Baker—Editor Delano Lee—Joke Page Ted Hodges and Carol Sutherland and Gary Willis—Cover Meredith Smith—Gossip Page Tom Tait and Shonnie Guy—Literary Carol Harris—Sports Ron Clowes, Don Blair—Illustrations These people with the help of various others from different rooms, assigned to write articles, did an excellent job. Many thanks to the secretary and the staff for their kind and willing co-operation. CAROL BAKER Hand Ball Takes Branton By Storm! Handball, until now has been played chiefly by members of the Y.M.C.A.’s, gone over in a big way in Branton Junior High School. This game was made possible by the perfect set-up the lower gymnasium provides. There are two courts of ample size. The concrete walls provide a hard smooth playing surface and the hardwood floor is resilient enough to be comfortable. Handball, until now has been layed chiefly by members of the Y.M.C.A.’s, firemen and policemen of the province. Judging by the enthusiasm of the Branton students for the game it would be a success in any of the schools. Handball is a wonderful conditioning game. It requires a fast eye and develops quick reactions. Its big advantage over most sports is that it develops both sides of the body equally well. A good player must learn to use his left arm as well as his right. Handball has been played enthusiastically at Branton all year, chiefly at noon and after school. Although it is basically a boys game we had about 8 girls who took part at noons and developed a first class swing adding some style to it as well. Sixty-four boys, mainly from Grades VIII and IX took part in the final tournament. The winners of the doubles trophy donated by Mr. Borgal were: Bob Wilson and Bryan Huggard. They were closely followed in skill and strategy by: Tom Faulkner and Delbert Huggard Dave Peers and Tom Voykin Bob Pike and Russ Turner Ross Rowe and Lorie Desreux Richard Lebsack and Bob Inverarity Champions - Bob Wilson, Bryan Huggard. Runners up - Delbert Huggard, Tom Faulkner. Thirty-Eight Boys in Action
