her above mediocrity. He urged that our graduates join the “construction crew, not the wrecking crew.’’ After the exercises, a dance took place in the gaily decorated auditorium. GRADUATION Twelve long years with old school mates; Twelve short years in and out those gates. Twelve short years of joy and sorrow, Twelve long years to prepare for the morrow. The future holds such varied tasks; The roles of many still wear masks. Like a high blown wave at sea, Students ponder which way prosperity may be. One long new life full of friendly names; One short life to fulfill our aims. One short life to try our best; One long life for joy and rest. Graduation falls between the two, The future’s hazy, the past is in review. —Gordon Parker Grade XII

FOOTBALL Football was the first sport to get underway at Broadview. The first exhibition game was played between Whitewood and Broadview at Whitewood on September 23. The Barons failed to get untracked and went down to defeat by the score of 19-13. Norton scored all the points for the Barons. On Monday, October 5, the Barcms journeyed to Kipling for a game against the local team. The Barons put on a good display both offensively and defensively, and came out on top by the score of 21-13. Key interceptions by Norton and D. Miskiman paved the way to victory. Norton kicked two converts for the Barons. On Saturday, October 17, the Unit Finals were held in Broadview, with teams from Whitewood, Kipling and Broadview in attendance. This gave the Baron fans their first, and also what proved to be their last glimpse of the team. The field was wet and slippery for both games. In the first game the Barons could not get an attack rolling until late in the fourth quarter, when it was too late. Whitewood, however, could do no wrong and they whipped the Barons 31-0. The Whitewood touchdowns were scored by Purvis (2), Arm¬ strong and Patrick. Patrick also helped the Whitewood cause by kicking a field goal and four converts. The third game, which was to be played, was not played, because Whitewood had already clinched the Unit Title by defeating Kipling 25-18. Mayfield won the East Regional Finals at Broadview on October 24. A game was scheduled between Maryfield and the Western Regional Champion. However, the West dropped out of the play-offs, and the Q.V.D.A. Championship and cup were awarded to Maryfield. Leading scorers for the Barons during the season were: B. Norton 2 4 G. Hanson 2 0 W.
