They were playing a Rockingham Peewee A team, and they clipped us 3-2. The Grammar School team got off to a good start, with a goal scored by Chris Morrow, after the first minute of play. Unfortunately, the Rockingham team soon tied it up and then took the lead, but Chris Morrow scored again. In the last few minutes of play, Rockingham scored the final goal, as the puck slipped past our goalie. The goal tending, though, was excellent, thanks to both Boyd and Aterman, who had to save a difficult penalty shot. We were very fortunate in having Tim Ripley of the St. Mary ' s Huskies coaching us once a week at the St. Mary ' s rink. Our team also gives thanks to Dr. Clark who coached our game as Ripley was away. Ripley had his hands full with over thirty kids playing, but he did a commendable job, and nobody left without learning something. 20

Chalmers Doane introduced music to forty of our students; from Prep 2 to Upper 1. Every Monday, at noon, Mr. Doane came to the school and gave us a ukelele course with the assistance of Mrs. Burnstein. This went on for approximately twenty tweeks until Mr. Doane thought the students were ready to play other instruments. Three weeks after the Christmas holiday, Mr. Doane and his music teachers issued to each person the instrument of his choice. Since then the students have had sectional rehearsals. These are lessons where only one section of the band is present and special teachers teach the students how to play their instruments. In the program, there are six flutes, one tenor saxophone, and one alto saxophone, taught by Mr. Hank Komst on Monday morning. Mr. Doane taught four trombones, one baritone horn, one tuba, and four percussions, every Monday noon. On Thursday mornings at eight A.M., four French horns, and six trumpets are taught by Mr. H. Herestak. Mr. Jim Williams took six clarinets, one oboe, and one bassoon for a lesson Wednesdays at noon. There might be a small string program started at the school this year but nothing is definite as yet. After many hard hours of practice and rehearsal we hope to have a virtuoso concert band.
