Miles Macdonell Track and Field Meet Hello there sports fans and track and field fans especially. Well, our field day got off on the right foot this year with perfect weather conditions. It proved successful as 15 records were broken. Special congratulations to six athletes who won all the events and among them broke six records. They were: Gail Scott (1 record); Nola James, Jo¬ anne Woytowich (2 records); Danny Rosin, Garth Mitchell (1 record); Dave Confrey (2 records). Bouquets must go to the following athletes who also help set new records in their respective events. They are: Jim Westmacott (2 records); Alfred Cor- nies, Norman Rogoski, Hemple Reimer, Don Olynyk, Jim Bruce, June Huyda, Joyce Craven, each setting one new record. —Dave Confrey Suburban Track and Field Meet This year’s suburban meet was held at Sargent Park. Despite cold and rainy weather the meet proved to be a very enjoyable one for both the spec¬ tators and competitors. I would like to thank all who participated in the Suburban Meet. Conditions around the school grounds are very poor and poor weather has kept our top athletes from real hard training. But never¬ theless we are very proud of our boys’ perform¬ ances at the meet. They placed second to St. James, being a mere six points behind them. Our girls did not do as well, but on the whole, Miles Mac placed fifth among the schools. Congratulations also to the following athletes who won at least one event: Gail Scott, Bill N ickarz, Jim Westmacott, Alfred Cornies, Garth Mitchell, Dave Confrey (the latter two winning two each).

FRESHIE DANCE Our Freshie Dance this year served two purposes. First, it opened the social doors of Miles Macdonell to welcome the Freshies. Tradition, of course called for an initiation and the newcomers were put through a few paces by the senior students. They were compelled to wear all manner of queer cloth¬ ing. However, our wonderful Frosh took their pun¬ ishment well and came through smiling. The second purpose of this dance was to introduce to the student body, the two parties who would be competing in the student council elections which were fast approaching. A floor show was held by both the Green and Gold parties which contributed to the happy dis¬ position of all who attended the dance and also dis¬ played to the students the talents of both parties. HOLLY HOP As the title suggests, this dance was of a festive nature. Its purpose was to give a premonition of and set the mood for the Christmas season which was to follow. The gym was decorated in white and silver. White crepe hung from the ceiling giving the illusion of a cloud of snow. Silver snow flakes decorated the stage. The attendance at the dance was remarkably good and the atmosphere was brightened by “les femmes” in their gay holiday dress. Prizes (records) were given to winners of spot dances, statue dances and more spot dances. A com¬ mendable job of advertising was done by Ken Miy- anishi (Plug) Commercial Artist, Phone ED 4-6437. All in all, the Holly Hop was a success and only one complaint was heard, “Where is that mistletoe.” 63
