And it is quite a story about how Canada's first railway sleeping car was made in Hamilton under the initiative of pioneer mechanic-industrialist, Samuel Sharpe. That led to the first dining car iroaring along the rails at 40 m.p.h.!i and a lot of other things being manufactured in the city for the first time. For instance the first threshing machines were made here in 1837, the first telephone exchange in the British Empire was established in Hamilton, the first locomotive was made here: so were the first iron steamboat, the first sulphur matches, the first sew- ing machine, the first coal oil lamp burner - and the first Canadian through line rail- road had its headquarters in Hamilton. Some of these things have been forgotten, but among our Firsts'-' The Hamilton Spectator still holds its position, having served and gained the confidence of the people of Hamilton since 1846, well over a century.

It is evident from the long list of competitors who play every Wednesday after four that their enthusiasm hasn't been dampened by the late start. Ninety-six players are at present in the Singles Tournament. Among these players are several who were outstanding in their high school play. A College men's and ladies' champion is expected to be announced by early April. Gord Maunder anzmmd 7101146411 The month of November was highlighted by Volleyball enthusiasts, who pro- vided many entertaining and exciting contests during the noon hour. Advice flow- ed freely from all quarters. The only spectators who did not enjoy the games were the referees. who had trouble interpreting the rules. The schedule was terminated when Form 5. spearheaded by Al Walker. with his deadly serve. won the school championship. --William Cook Seniaa Eoqfi' Wolleqdall The Volleyball team was in the limelight during March and April. ln all the games. the boys maintained the high tradition of sportsmanship as in years gone by. Much credit is due Mr. Hyder and Al Walker for their efforts in organizing the team. -William Cook 80
