In the fall we started off playing softball. As time went on, we had to quit this sport because of the snow and colder weather. Then we turned our attention to building a rink, which we finally accomplished. The boys played hockey and the girls had an occasional recess for skating. However, since the rink was too crowded, we decided to draw up a schedule. The Grades 1-5 used the rink on Tuesdays and Thursdays, while the Grades 6-10 had Monday, Wednesday, and Friday for hockey and skating. Soccer was played occasionally but with little enthusiasm. The highschool went to Morweena for a game of soccer. We lost 5-0 to the better team. In exchange for our visit, they came over to the community rink for a hockey game. We won 4-3 after 10 minutes of overtime. It was a close game. The Room 2 and 3 girls had a running- walking contest. Their aim was to see who could cover the greatest number of miles in eight days. Louella Thiessen was the winner making 37 miles. Good for you, Louella! With all the exercises and sports we have enjoyed so far, we realize that there are still many more, for which we do not have equipment and facilities. . Smash tiff f.

SOCIAL ACTIVITIES left to right: Flora Plett, Miss Reimer, Raynold Kroeker. STUDENT COUNCIL REPORT As a member of the Student Council, 1 can say that we have had quite a few activities during the past school term. First of all, we went to see a Billy Graham film entitled Africa on the Bridge which was shown in the Riverton Gospel Chapel. It turned out to be a great film that was worth seeing. We also published a school paper entitled Mennvilie Highschooi Highlights . We decided that if they would sell easily, we would publish some more and sell them at ten cents each. But since there seemed to be very little interest, we dropped this project. Our next duty was to plan a Christmas social. There was quite a bit of work involved in this. When we finally finished the organizing, we were really looking forward to the social. We had it on December 18th in the evening. We had a terrific banquet followed by some exciting games, musical numbers, and some peanuts and candy. Next some gifts were handed out and we went home. The school board decided that they would like us to make a yearbook. This too involved a lot of work. We did some qui ck thinking and somehow managed to gather material. Some of our future planning include an Easter doing and probably a class trip. Raynold Kroeker Grade 9 38
