thusiastic about our various sports-although we've won no honours, but received loads of fun and lots of punishment. tBoth the boys and girls.: WE NEVER SAY DIE! We'll show our worth in the coming volleyball gamesf If We shine in our debates-and do we ever get laughslff tYou never saw such a class for argttingl. We have detentions galore-all because of our noisy chatter, gossiping, and giggling-fof which each teacher is complaining. One of our many highlights is that of the SILVER CL'I ', that is proudly displayed in our room. The girls of SCM beat the stenc- graphy classes in a typing contest-although we have half their periods in typing. Not so bad for a noisy class. Being editor of the gossip, I think a little of same is not out of place, so here goes: Is Deannie really interested in ALL 3 A? -SYLVIA SEGAL HIGHLIGHTS OF 3Sl Girls' Sports The Feminine section of 351 have not won any laurels in the realm of sport so far. hav- ing played through the volleyball series with- out capturing the championship, but we won't let the basketball crest slip through our fingers so easily. Boys' Sports The Boys were more fortunate in their Soccer games than the girls in their Volley- ball. They reached the finals and were de- feated by 4G after playing overtime, with a score of 2 to 1. Sofia! Events These have been many and all have been a decided success, We have had four parties. three at the home of Rose Over, and the other was a surprise t?J party on Eleanor Fleming. Even if everyone that was invited did not turn up, those who did enjoyed them- selves to their hearts' content. The 1956-37 class of SSI will long be re- membered in the annals of the Eastern High School of Commerce as a class that were al- ways ready for a good time, ucarlv always had their work done and who were good sports all the way through the game. I don't think that any more need be said. -RUTH KRAISMAN. FLASHES FROM 3S2 As you probably know, 352 is supposed to be THE third form, talthough we hear con- Ninety-six trary remarks. which we are beginning to be- lieve ourselvesl. We had a very good volley-ball team this year. under the capable supervision of Anne Matheson. We did. in fact. reach the semi- finals before we were defeated. Our basketball team is doing well too, for, so far, we have won all our games except one. which we tied. Our basketball captain is Betty Meikle. As to our aquatic results, four of our mem- bers are studying life-saving. and are trying to win their Bronze Medal. We also have within our four walls, the Tennis School Champs.. Margaret Wice and Bella Marnock. At Commencement, they re- ceived cups for this achievement. So, with these tit-bits of news ringing in your ears, we. the girls of 3SZ, sign off for another year. sjessna MCALISTER. 383 FORM NEWS Oullahan. Donaldson, Clayton.

Marge. Helen, Phil and Betty Jeeves. And then the girls who sit at the front, We pity them 'cause they can't eat their lunchg They have to mind what they do and say lean. Elsie, Gwen, Pearl and May.

Ninety-eight Y SPECIAL ISROOM 208 Betty Huser has a sense of humour to help her over rough spots, namely, in the short- hand transcription exam., writing about a cake instead of a cape and asserting she could get one made to measure. .-Klan Sharpe obtained the place of honour in our excuse list by saying, I had-um-a lot of correspondence to attend to.'l Geraldine 3IcLaughlin's amiable nature seems to put her one excuse, 'KI haven't got it done, over extremely well. Kay Provan encourages those short in sta- ture, by telling that after an absence she's never missed by the teachers, which is rather helpful. To future French classes we leave the one answer that fits all questions, Ie ne sais pas . Familiar words: Vous allez tomber. Taylor, je pensef' Edith Kerr found herself in an embarrass- ing situation recently. During bookkeeping period, she was asked if she had brought a note and thinking she had been asked the next question answered: I haven't quite fin- ished writing it yet. An explanation, how- ever, smoothed matters over. We wonder what attraction lies in the audi- torium at 8.30 a.m. To a future Special 1, we leave one line of poetry which is especially apt when doing homework, The night is far spent. the day is at hand. -,IOSEPHINE WI.-XRNEY, SPECIAL TWO FORM NEWS How cha do!!
