The South Juniors opened the season at the Technical School and defeated the well- coached outlit by a 20-13 score. Playing at home for the first time, the Juniors continued their winning performances by outclassing a young hut hard- lightingr Beck team 17-11. South's next adversary, Cent- ral, proved to be the biggest obstacle in their path for the championship, but they were finally overcome by virtue of a last-quarter rally and South emerged with its third con- secutive win, 17-10. The next three city games were all taken by South, but not without a struggle. South took a high scoring game from close with a thrillinu' 110-lt' win at Vcntral.

Freeman SENIORS ARE OUSTED BY TECH. The Senior team of last year made a creditable showing. Mr. Freeman was faced with the task of building up a new squad. Several members grad- uated from the Juniors and when the season started Mr. I-'reeman had a well-balanced team. The opening game with Tech, played on Tech's gymnasium, resulted in a 17-12 win for Tech. The next game was with Beck. on South's Hoor, Beck linding themselves on the short end of a 22-13 score. Central, our old rivals, next visited us anil South came out on top with a 17-11 verdict. Once again Tech defeated us only this time on our own iioor. This game was the best game of the season, and Tech only in the last quarter pulled ahead to win. South played their return game with Beck but this time lost out. It was a close struggle with the score 16-15 as the final whistle blew. South lost to Central, 14-12, in the final game of the series. The team was unfortunate in the last two games, but they worked well under the coaching of Mr. Freeman. However, last year's Juniors reached the W.O.S.S.A. finals and we hope that this year they will repeat their perform- ance only in senior uniform. The line-up: Forwards: D. Green ICapt.J, K.

ECHOES FROM THE DRESSING ROOM Who hooked the laces out of my shoes? Come on, Miller, give me my towel so I can use it once. Hey, Keene! have you got .in extra sock 7 These are just a few of the questions which haunt the dressing-room night after night. When there are forty or iifty fellows in one small dressing- room they sure can raise one big racket. If it wasn't for Miller's passion for somebody else's towel and Mitchell's in- clination to remove the laces from the nearest shoes, the locker room might be an enjoy- able place. Many times you wish you could get dressed in peace, but just get away from that clatter for a few days and you wish you were back. When practice is over and both Junior and Senior teams reach the dressing'-room at the same time, it's just one big Push and shove to get some of the hot water before it is all gone. Incidentally, when every- one is on the way home you can always see McKenna tying up the last shoe lace while either Mr. Freeman or Mr, Dinsmore wait patiently at the door for His Majesty to remove himself from the dressino-- room. 5 If anyone is really curious, they should drop around in the direction of the gymnasium and listen to George Dowde-ll's ve,-- sion of Annie's Cousin Fannie -I am sure that it would be well worth your while, -Doug. Parnell, VA, OF THE YEAR Mr. Ireland Does Good I Work i T' ' ' ' I Just what the Senior At Home would amount to was a .natter of considerable concern. What with the flu epidemici ind colds, things looked ratherl discouraging. But it is sur-N prising how quickly studentsi recuperate when a party is approaching. So it happened that on the evening of January ' 25, 1935, a large number gathered in the auditorium, sniliiing, or otherwise, ready for the big event of the year. After Mr. Ireland had brought things to order, the accordion player led a grand march, headed by Ernie Grove, master of ceremonies, and his partner, Nancy Santo. This just seemed to set everybody in their high- est spirits. I The gymnasium took us coin- pletely by surprise. Never be- fore had we seen a more strik- ing ballroom! The orchestra stand was exceptionally well set off. The dark blue, light blue and white streamers came out from it in fan shape over the entire gymnasium. I I I -- We had looked forward to Al. Keene's orchestra since his visit to the school a few we9kS before. He turned out to be even better than we had ex- pected. The Pierce Twins sang and :lid a couple of spectacular dances, accompanied by Dick White in his usual rhythmic manner. Anne Gordon and Dick's duet, Flirtation VValk, pleased everyone. Several nov- elty numbers added variety to the dancing. Even Mr. Ireland found great delight in making the girls' balloons bang. A tem- pora1'y stand had been set up in one corner, where ginger ale and cookies we1'e enjoyed dur- ing the dancing. As favours, the girls received a small box of l-Iunt's chocolates, but we noticed most of the boys got more than their share of them. On the whole, the evening was delightful and I am sure those present will be eagerly awaiting this year's. Every senior should strive to make this At Home better than before, though we admit this a pretty hard record to beat. We are indebted to Mr. Ire- land and his competent staff, who had worked for so long a time to make this the success it was. I -Mary Thomas, V B. SOUTH'S ORATORS FOURTH FORM CLAIMS PROVE WINNERS lCuntinued from Page II Fred Norwood, winner of the challenge, was a close runner- up in Juniors, to give South an almost clean sweep in the W.O.S.S.A. finals for the dis- trict. In the final contest for the boys, held at South, Tom Parker was given second place for all Western Ontario, and later. at Woodslee, in a one- room school with temperature . . . lfor further details apply Mr. Urlinl, Madelon Gilmore was judged runner-up for Junior Girls. Our orators did very well this year, and South is proud of their achievements, but a great deal of the credit must go to Miss McCamus for her splendid coaching of the speak- ers. Let's keep up our good reputation for Public Speaking, South, and break all records next year! IContinued from Page II els: and we feel that they de- serve the heartiest congratula- tions the school may tender them. IYC is again victorious! This time it was the first to complete the sale of Students' Activities tickets. Although there was a good deal of com- petition, our position in the lead was never seriously threat- ened. Notwithstanding the fact that no prize for this achieve- ment has been forthcoming, we feel that we have all gained something by this test of our eiiiciency. IVC holds the unique posi- tion of being the one form in the school having a banner. Leonard Wray was responsible for this excellent piece of work. The banner is fastened over the blackboard at the front of our room, Room 13, VVe hope, before the year is out, to be able to mark many achievements on it, so that it may become a symbol of IV C's enterprise. -Barb. Kains, IV C.
