Por, working days or holidays, And glad or melancholy days, They were great days and jolly days At the best school of all. One would definitely feel sorry for the person who could not sing a hymn of praise to his school - who could not look back with pride upon the days of his youth when he attended uthe best school of alln. Yet we of O.D.H.S. need not grieve, for we most certainly do not occupy that unfortunate position. It is our privilege to point proudly to our school and consider the time spent there as the happiest of our lives. Therefore, we offer our hymn of praise - the Red and Blue, the record of a pleasant and profitable school year and a stepping stone for future nlooking backn. As the fall term commenced last September, it was evident that the period of adjustment was at last at an end. We had made a long and arduous journey since the night of the fire and we hoped that we had reached a happy destination. The previous uneasiness no longer pervaded the atmosphere and there was a peaceful tranquillity, a pleasant 'at home' feeling. School events, both academic and social, proceeded as usual, but this was a different year and they always contained some new twist. If it was pleasant, we enjoyed it the more, and if unpleasant, its difficulties were soon overcome. The school on the hill, this year, opened its heart to a multitude of newcomers and will release from ever reluctant but encour- aging arms, a brave little band of graduates who venture forth into a difficult and independent civilization. 2 Our staff, as strong and understanding now as in the years which followed the fire, has continued to be a constant source of know ledge and assistance to us. Through their guidance, we may be better able to cope with future difficulties. We hope the Red and Blue of l952-53 will provide an interest ing and worthy account of a year full of harmony and teamwork - a year in which we have striven to uphold the school's shining tradition. Verbal bouquets are in order at this time for many who have generously extended help and precious time which alone have made possible the publication of this magazine. I wish to express my deepest gratitude - to Mr. Percy for his steadying hand and valuable insp- iration, to Miss Dodds for her untiring labour in the stencilling of the annual, to Mr. Cline for the colourful addition of photographs, to my fellow editors for their conscientious work and ready com operation, and to students and teachers for contributions and helpful advice. It is with pleasure and pride that we present the Annual Red and Blue of 1952 - 53. nYour children's children will hold high the light and keep the shield of truth forever bright, through lessons you have taughtn.

With proper leadership fr m our senior students, the daily routine has functioned smoothly. The student council has shown good judg- ment in directing the special activities under their jurisdiction. The establishment of a department of music has been a step in the right direction. Already, it has made itself felt in our literary meetings, cadet inspection and on other occasions. The school year has been an outstanding one because every department has contributed its full share. The winter tenm was a succession of many special events. The visit of Lester Pierson and Gordon Graydon was of special importance. Once again our graduates leave this school to seek fame and fortune in the various walks of life. May I say that formal education such as you have experienced since starting school is only a factor in the develop ent of your life. To live to the fullest and attain the greatest satisfaction, you must bring all your qualities to bear so that humanity may be best served. Like our new Queen, let us truly dedicate our lives to service above self. a REDANDBLUE 1252 THE STAFF - Maurice H. Cline, B.A. CMbMasterB..,. .

All Padre John Bartlett - Empire Day Service. those who showed sufficient interest to attend our public fu ctions. - Practical Agriculture - we of the school certainly appreciate the work of the Agriculture department under the capable leadership of Mr. Murray Young. Here is indeed a practical course the results of which are clearly visible to anyone who passes the school on the hill. Mr. Young undertook this big job of landscaping last year and made a very excellent start as seen, particularly in our front lawns. The department this year has indeed been a hive of industry attempt- ing to complete the taskg and no small headway has been made. One look at the heavy green carpet of grass, the newly planted shrubs, the levelled land, the pruned trees and the trees removed, and a person cannot but realize the tremendous amount of work that has gone into the landscaping, and that we have a beautiful school in a beautiful setting. Carry on, Mr. Young. You!re doing a fine job!! - An Adventure in Citizenship - Dawn Kirkness, a student in Grade 12, had the honour this year, of being selected to go to Ottawa. The trip, an adventure in citizenship, is sponsored each year by the local Rotary Club. Several names, submitted by the High School are placed in a hat and a draw is made. It is indeed a privilege for the fortunate winner. Congratulations, Dawn! a lv 222 - Officers and Senior N.C.O.'s of - o.D.H,s. Cadet COPE.

Honours - Once again the time has come to review the school year and to do honours to those who have given unstintingly of their time and abilities to make the Orangeville District High School function smooth- ly, to make it a better place in which to work and play. In so doing, they have not only helped to keep our school outstanding but have firmly grasped the first rungs to success - - trustworthiness, relia- bility, and cooperation. The student council, that group elected by the students to represent their interests and voice their desires, can be a powerful influence for good when the president is a level-headed person, one who sees things in proper perspective, who can keep within the council and hence the student body, the spirit of fairness and cooperation necessary for school harmony. Such a president the Council had this year in Bob Dods. Yes, Bob, we gratefully acknowledge your stabiliz- ing influence among the students and offer you -Honours-. we know the qualities you have developed will prove invaluable to you. One of the intregal parts of our daily school life is the cafeteria, a cafeteria which so many students take for granted without realizing the hard work of organization behind the quick efficient service they receive every day. No small task it is to secure cong- enial helpers, estimate quantities, finance payments, avoid waste and so keep the business on a sound financial basis, but you did it Dawn Kirkness and for your splendid contribution we present to you - - Honours - -. we know your experience and that of your helpers who did such a fine job will prove its value to you in later life. -2--1 -....- - Sock Dances - Three gloomy Friday afternoons were considerably brightened this term by the sparkling addition of Sock Dances, Many students in a dancing mood gained admission to these affairs for a nominal fee, det- ermined by tickets from l cent to 25 cents, Music was provided by records, and at the first two gatherings we were able to hear the pleasant strains of the school orchestra. we are looking forward to more of these friendly frolics. 222 10 4 - gp!!! Notes - Yes, the members of the staff have had a few highlights too which will make this year a memorable one. H D Perhaps we should give first place.to that event in Guelph, -December 20, 1952, when Mr. M. Young deciding he needed a sympathetic campanion to whom-he could tell his troubles, made Miss Audrey Wilson his bride. She didn't have long to wait to hear his troubles either for, on coming out of the'reception, a police ticket decorated his car. Well, Mrs. Young, that's just the beginning. we wish you every joy and happiness. Mr. Young, we think you're a very fortunate young man. Another event, almost as disastrous as our first one was happy took place during the Easter holidays when our principal, on his way to Rochester, had the misfortune to be involved in an accident. There were many thankful people when it was learned that no one had been seriously hurt although Mr. Cline received ainumber of nasty scratches and his car was badly smashed. Fortunately Mr. Cline carried insurance so that all was not lost and he was able to replace his car with a 1950 Oldsmobile. This year too we congratulate Mr. Gibson who completed his specialist standing last summer in his course in Industrial Arts and Crafts. Q Once inia lifetime, and for most of us never, comes the opportunity to view the pomp and pagentry of a coronation and our school is fortunate to have nOur Miss Kiddn who teaches English at O.D.H.S. attend this spectacle. we are sure she will have a marvellous time and that she will share her trip with us on her return. Congratulations and bon voyage, Miss Kidd. we regret that Miss Ewing who has been teaching girls' P.T. and Latin for the past two years has decided to withdraw from the profession and so will not be with us next year. Whatever your plans, Miss Ewing, we wish you the best of success. We will miss you. This year two new members were added to the staff - Mr. N. Maynard who is the new Com ercial teacher, and Mr. A. Smith, who heads the newly instituted music department which has added so much to our school functions. Mr. Smith has an orchestra well under way as well as a military band which now leads the cadet corps instead of the tradit- ional girls' bugle band. Last summer Captain Yates and Lieutenant Seltzer attended the sum er cadet camp at Ipperwash, the former as instructor, the latter as platoon commander. This su er it looks as if our cadet ' instructor Mr. Yates intends to get in a little golf whereas Mr. Seltzer is going to try his charm as a salesman. The whole staff again, of course, presents its mythical bouquet to Miss McPhedran who seems to have the knack of knowing when a spot of tea will lift those drooping spirits or smooth over the rough spots which are bound to crop up during a school year. Thanks, Miss Mcphedrano ll The school secretary, Miss Dodds, cleared the school headaches frcm her brain last summer with the sea breezes of the Atlantic and came back refreshed and with a new sparkle in her eye. This sum er she was picked by Mr. McClelland to be secretary of the summer school at the Ontario Agricultural College. After subtracting the shakes, rattles and racket frcm his Ford, Mr. Kalbfleisch came to the conclusion he had Wnothingn left. The action resulting from his calculations prbduced a 'Ll Chevrolet. Mr. and Mrs. Percy had a very pleasant motor trip to southern Arizona last July. we appreciate very much the work of our caretaker, Mr. G. Rawn, who we feel is not only doing a very fine job of keeping our school spick and span, but is also pleasant and cooperative. f'fN,.N to -Do UUUQ Db QQGBL Ee cgoaa wr., .1 THQ -scenbe. - GQELQH- Kmox 7DR,6,513r1 eRbAl0 Cdoggy 12 - Sadie Hawkin's Dance - by Clarence Proctor XII ' WHey, wait Susie! Aren't you going to carry my books toon? Yes, for a whole week in O.D.H.S. it was a familiar sight to see girls hold doors open for the boys and to stand politely back to allow them to pass first. Had the age of chivalry gone co pletely? No, it was just WTwirp Weekn. And whatls that I hear? Susie just asked Jim.what colour of flowers he would like for Friday night. Oh I understand, now --- the girls must buy their dates flowers for the Sadie Hawkin's Dance. The night of February 13th was clear and cool with just enough moon to suit the occasion. As the muted strains of Dalton Gibson's orchestra drifted out over the snow, the first brave girl was seen helping her chosen Uescortn out of the car in front of the school. She advanced to the'smiling ticket seller and with a wistful look at her purse paid the admission. Then she graciously helped him off with his overcoat and proudly pinned flowers in his buttonhole. Decorating the gym.walls were large red hearts and the trad- itional L'il Abner and Daisy Mae. Dim blue lights and a smooth floor provided all the extra incentive for the girls to step up to a boy and sweetly ask, HMay I have the next dancen. Soon the floor was dotted with whirling couples. Intermission was for once a pleasant rest period for the boys. Just think - they didn't have to brave the long line to the lunch counter in the Science room, nor did they have to wonder whether their finances were sufficient. Dancing continued until one and then dreamyeeyed students left for parts unknown, with the girls, of course, in charge. As one boy said as he left the school Wlt was the best dance, I!ve ever been at. Why don't we have them more oftenln - Tell Me Why - by Dougald MacArthur XII Why is it that our teachers Will stand outside the door Until two minutes vanish - Or maybe even more. The fact that time is fleeting They seem to know quite well, But they don't give the homework out Until the second bell. - Hal1owe'en Dance - by Gloria Cooney XII Soft lights and sweet music were the order of the evening, as the first couples began to arrive for the dance of the year, the Hallowe'en formal. They came slowly at first, then more and more came, until the high school gym seemed alive with colourful dresses and beautiful corsages. Couples floated along to the strains of popular songs. Everywhere gay voices could be heard, and ever one was having a good time. The gym.was beautifully decorated. Boxes covered the lights, bathing the whole room in an enchanting orange glow. Balloons bobbed merrily above the heads of the dancers, and witches flew about on the walls. Some disjointed skeletons danced crazily around too. The stage was garlanded with stalks of corn, and jack-o- lanterns grinned broadly on each individual, as he watched the proceed- ings with shining eyes. However, something new had been added, for in one corner was a wierd looking lady, Petunia by name. Upon closer inspection, people found out that she wasn't Whistler?s grandmother, but only a du my. She was winking openly at another dummy in the next corner. He was a hands me fellow called Clem, and he seemed not at all interested in the poor girl. Like all good, the dance had to some to an end. Reluctantly the crowd dispersed and climbing into the cars, left the school. Everyone was thinking of the wonderful time he or she had had. All agreed that it had been a very good dance, and that they had all enjoyed themselves. 111 -mann - The Cooks - by Mary Jackson XII Frem the English roc , fr m the silence deep, Four lone souls from their places creepy They're off to the room at the end of the hall, To see that at lunch time there's good food for all. They hustle-and bustle, so merry and bright, Such a beautiful scene in their aprons of white. They wonft make you pudding or bake you a cake, But I?ve heard it said they can brew a milkshake. The dishes are shining, a real sight to see, With monogrammed dishcloths by Eleanore B. I They all love their work or so it would seem But really I think that they just love ice cream. 14 - Toronto Riverdale Collegigte Concert - hy Marilyn Nodwell 'XII . In the High School auditorium, Friday evening, May Sth, the students of Toronto Riverdale Collegiate - three bus-loads of them and their two conductors, entertained an appreciative audience. The glee club of 60 vocalists Q AO girls and 20 boys - de- lighted the listeners with their opening group of nu bers. Following this a AO-piece band played five nu bers ranging from marches, popular and classical songs. These musicians who have been organized for only a short time set an example for many young musicians to follow. The stage next was the scene of a lively oldityme square- dance. The students participating donned plaid shirts, jeans, and square-dance skirts, while the on-lockers joined in a sing song, WThe Hollywood Square Dancen. Then came the surprise of the evening, a 60-piece orchestra, with tru pets, violins, violas, wood-winds, drums and many others. One of the outstanding numbers was USurprise Symphonyn, with effective work done by the dru mere. It is hoped that this group of young musicians were an in- spiration to the students of O.D.H.S. who have begu their study of music this year. With constant practice and co-operation our school will be able to display such a group as the Riverdale students. maui Q Coronation Queen Q As an added event of interest this Coronation year, the high school students were given an opportunity of chosing a Queen for the Coronation Ball to be held on the evening of June lst. One morning, slips of paper were distributed throughout the classrooms. Each student was told to vote for the girl whom he thought had the most beauty, poise and personality fin Grades Eleven, Twelve, Thirteen and Commerciall. After the ballots were cou ted the follows ing girls were the favourites: Nan Scott, Dorothy Clarke, Helen Fleetham, Joan Henderson, Beverley Hall and Cynthia McKee. Congrat- ulations girls338 The following week other ballots were cast to deterndns which of these six girls would be Queen and who would be the two Ladies-in4Waiting.

But to students of O.D.H.S. oratory is more than just an ancient study of public speaking. Every year the students compete for the honour of winning the Curry and the Aiken cups., The Curry cup is the coveted trophy among the Juniors, while the Aiken cup serves as the same symbol among the Seniors. Each grade submits a limited nu ber of speakers to compete. To determine who these speakers will be, a class competition is held wherein every pupil must give a prepared composition on any topic of his or her selection. All through the early part of March one may see students with extraordinarily harried faces, wandering about the halls, hastily trying to com it their speeches to memory or biting their fingernails from pure nervousness. When the best speakers are selected from each class the Semi-Finals are held. For this each speaker must have a prepared speech and also an impromtu. These speeches are ju ged by members of the staff who select Wthe cream.of the cropu, to go on to the Finals. This year three Juniors and four Seniors were chosen. On March 18th the student body and a number of the public gathered in the gym asiu for the Finals. Miss Ruby Baltzer, Mr. Murray McKitrick and Mr. Boris Parkinson assumed the difficult role of judges. The first speaker was Irwin Gillespie whose most timely subject was NJosef Stalin and Communismn. His impromtu - the account of his first interview for a job amused the student body immensely. Paul Henderson, speaking on the great hockey player UTeeter Kennedyu, interested the boys particularly. Reminiscent smiles appeared on many faces when he gave his impromtu -UMusic Lessonsn. Dorothy Woods, last of the Junior speakers, spoke.on WWhy I Am Proud to Live in Ontarion and gave her impromtu on nSchool Spiritn. Eleanore Beeney, the first of the Senior speakers, spoke on the thought-provoking subject Ulf Canada Were At War, Would You Enlist. Her impromtu speech concerned the aromatic subject of UOnionsW. Berna- dette Garvey followed with Nlour Futuren and the all too familiar NMbrning Bluesn. Shirley Simpson next spoke on WYour Future's What You Make Itn and for her impromtu WMy First Daten. Bruce Small, last of the Senior speakers outlined his thoughts on NRighteousnessW and then asked in his impro tu NAre Children Getting Worse?H ' During the intermission between the prepared and imprdmtu speeches, the school military band, entertained an appreciative audience. Under the direction of Mr. Smith it rendered several melodic select- ions. 16 At the conclusion of the impromtu speeches Mr. Cline asked the judges to withdraw to select the winners. No one envies them their task because everyone agreed that all the speeches had set a very high standard. While the judges were making their decision a fashion show- was presented by the girls from the Home Economics classes under the direction of Miss McPhedran. The clothes were modelled by the girls who had made them. An additional feature was the display of clothes worn in the homelands of several new Canadians. Everything from petticoats and pyjamas to tailored suits represented the height of spring fashions. Rosslyn Sullivan, Joan Lowe, and Ina Bible acted as commentators and music was artfully supplied by Don Ferguson at the P18300 When the last fashion plate had disappeared from view, the judges returned with their decision. Mr. Murray McKitrick acted as spokesman and announced to a tense audience that Irwin Gillespie had won the Junior cup and Eleanore Beeney the Senior. Mr. Aiken, in the absence of Mr. Curry presented both the Curry and Aiken cups to the smiling winners. Congratulations are in order to the winners on the excellence of their speeches. Eleanore Beeney later went to Barrie to compete in the Lions Club contest which she won. This gives her the right to speak at the C.N.E. contest which is held during the last week of August. Good luck, Eleanore. Wefre rooting for you. Q-as--Q a...:u-n - 'Magazine Sales Q Orangeville District High School launched a giant magazine sales camp- aign again this year. A successful drive was the result of vigorous teamwork. The total sales were approximately 31100. and after all expenses were paid our portion was 3300. This money is being used by the Student Council to buy a time clock for use in the gymnasium. At the end of the drive, a draw was held for two Bulova watches.

Q 5 ,Ah 17 Orangeville District High School Commencement 1952 Marilyn Nodwell XII ' Excitement reigned in the halls and behind the curtained stage on the night of November the 2lst. Everywhere were students scurrying about frantically scanning their play parts and music. Through the doors thronged the crowd which jammed the large auditorium of the school. Yes, it was the annual Commencement of the Orangeville District High School. At 8.15 Principal Maurice Cline opened the programme and O Canada sung. Lights then brightened on stage and curtains were drawn back displaying a fine example of skill and brawn. Taking part in the gymnastics under the leadership of Mr. Seltzer were boys representing all the grades. Such acts as somersaulting from a box-horse drew loud applause from the audience. The Junior Glee Club which was a new idea this year proved to be one of the highlights of the night's performance. Its members rendered two welleknown songs, nThe Bells of St. Mary'sn, and NCome to the Fairn. This group was under the direction of Lindsey Jelly. Thanks to to you, Lin, for your fine work. The next on the agenda was the exercise which is the real purpose of a Commencement, the presenting of diplomas and proficiency awards. Mr. J. B. Dods presented the Intermediate, Secondary diplomas, Proficiency awards and Canadian Army certificates to deserving students. Adding colour and grace was the girl's dance directed by Miss Ewing. Their costumes were white, black and green - resembling Irish lads and lasses. The dance was one which might have been per- formed on a village green and proved to be a decided hit with the audience. nThe Dear-Departedn, a one-act play directed by Miss Kidd was hilarious. The scene of the play was a sitting-room in a small house belonging to the Slater family. Abel Merryweather fBruce Smallj an old man of approximately eighty is thought to be dead. Mrs. Slater CShirley Brawleyl and Mrs. Jordon KGayle McNeillJ his two daughters and Henry Slater QJack Emackj and Ben Jordon KHarold Doddsl his sonsmine law fight over Abel's possessions. Finally Victoria Slater CDiane Richiel discovers that her grandfather is not dead. At the end of the play to everyone's surprise Abel makes it known that he is getting married next week. Twenty-two girls took part in the girls' gymnastics which were under the direction of Miss Ewing. These gymnastics consisted of leapefrog, somersaults and pyramids which kept the audience on the edges of their chairs. Directly after the gymnastics, Commercial and Senior Sec- ondary diplomas were given out. Following this the graduation class of last year took chairs on the platform and Jean Scott delivered a very appropriate valedictory address. 18 She took everyone back in memory to the old school and the difficulties experienced by teachers and students alike until they took their place in the new Schooleon-theeHill. Jean paid special tribute to the staff, especially remarking about the great help they had been to the class ever since grade nine. Mr. Smith's Senior Glee Club rendered two selections, favour- ites of everyone, WBendemere's Streamn and nBless This Housen. Mr. Smith, the new music highly commended for of singers. Another one Mr. Percy. The plot Elizabeth Cass QMary are entertaining the CJo Ann Donaldsonj, teacher at Orangeville High this year is to be the excellent work which he has done for this group act play, nAccording to Doylen was directed by of the story centres about the Cass family.

Claudia's fiance, Bill Winslow QTerry Hicksj realizes that Claudia has not been true to him and that he really loves Sally Cass, a poor relation of the family QMarilyn Nodwelll. In the play Queenie throws a glass of water in her mother's face and later appears with her face covered with.raspberry jam. Such incidents as these had the audience laughing until their sides were sore. The programme ended in a musical way. The school orchestra which Mr. Gibson and Mr. Smith have been training this year showed that all their practicing was worthwhile. They played Blue Moon for their first number and then a medley of four tunes - 2I'll See You In My Dreams, Memories of You, I Only Have Eyes For You and White Christmaso. The orchestra concluded by playing the school song which was composed by Mr. Smith. For a grand finale all students taking part in the Commencement gathered on stage and sang along with the orchestra while cheer leaders led in one of the school yells. with the playing of WGod Save the Queenn one of the best commencements ever to be presented came to an end.

Although the participators were by no means warm in their 'gpm attiren their fighting spirit did not suffer. Those taking part were three schools - Grand Valley, Shelburne and Orange- ville o Junior: In the UJunior Boys Ewentsn, Alan Shannon of Grand Valley received the most points - eleven. He was the victor of the 100 and 220 yard dashes and placed third in the Fhigh jump'. Orange- ville point collectors were Alan Donaldson who won a second and thirdg George Sloan also with a second and third and Tom McReynolds with two thirdso Intermediates The Intermediate top scorer was George Phillips who gained sixteen points. He placed third in the Uhop, step and ju p running broad jump' and first in the following - standing broad ju p, running broad jump and the half mile race. Doug Rutledge of Shelburne placed a close second to Phillips in the half mile race. Winner of the Intermediate nshot putn was Ronald Strilive of Orangeville. Fred Montgomery and Tom Dobson came second and third for Orangeville respectively in the high jump. Other point collect- ors were Jim Bower with a first and two secon sg Harley Presley with a first, second and third. In the lfh mile run Len Gamble and John Evans placed first and second. Senior: The Senior winner was Jack Emack with 16 points. He won top honours in the 100 and LAO yard dashes and also took sec- onds in the 220 yard run and high ju p. Jim Reid was also an outstanding Orangeville athlete. He won a first, one second and two-thirds. UPerceW Morrison gained a total of lh points. Included in these points was his spectacular first in the npole vaultn. Good work Jack! NShadW Burnett placed first in two events and both Bob Dods and John Kearns gained one first apiece. Gord. Marshall and Jim Greenis scored seconds in their events. The AAO yard relay was won by the Orangeville squad while the before mentioned Phillips and Greenis placed first and second in the 880 yard run. Excellent work Orangevillei we can't however forget both Shelburne and Grand Valley athletes who provided Ufinew competition. Yes this will long be remembered as one of the best field meets and let's hope next yearfs equals or even passes the records which were set. 22 - Field Day - by Bernadette Garvey XIII The climax to many days of practice came on September 29th, when the Orangeville District High School held its annual field day. As in previous years, the activities were well organized, with the staff supervising the various events. The girls' activities began with th ee team relays, follow- ed by individual events, such as races, jumps, etc. The winning teams were, first Q Margaret Rennickg second - Edith de St. Aubyng and third Q Dawn Kirkness. The first team was also fortunate in producing the senior winner, Margaret Rennick, and the junior winner, Carol Peck. Shirley Thompson took the laurels in the intermediate field. The individual winners, as did the members of the first team, received school crests and field day bars. The members of the three top teams were awarded free passes to the showy The school is proud of its capable athletes, but win or loose, everyone felt that the Orangevills High School Field Day had been a day of keen competition and true sportsmanship. asm: ls It was a rough Rugby game. Many of the players were injured. Mr. Cline came up to George and asked, WAny scars on you?H George: WNo, but Ilve got some cigarettes in my coat pocketn. zap: A below average basket ball player, who thought she was one of the Globe Trotters, complained to Miss Ewing: UI can't get into my running shoesn. Back came the reply, Wwhatl Feet swelled too?W cncma: Mr. Cline tells us to pick a mate who has brains. Most girls want a mate who is tall and free with his money, that is, tall, dark, and hand-somemover. 23 - The O.D.H.S. Field Day -- by Ron Strilive XI As usual 'twas on a balmy day, the 29th of September that the annual Field Day was run off. Again teams competed against teams vying for first, second and third positions after vigourous work-outs in the high jump, running broad jump, hop step and jmnp, shot put and various races. Since no accurate records of by-gone field days have been kept, no one knew if they had broken any re- cords. However, this did not prevent the competition from being keen. Running events seem to be of interest to most so I have compiled a few statistics of '52 races. 220 E dash Junior Al Donaldson 31.5 sec. Intermediate Harley Presley 29.7 sec.

Senior Jim Reid 35 pts. Jack Emack 30 pts. letls hope that next year's champs take home cups with them. The day was a whopping success from start to finish. There was a feeling of harmony, as there always is, between teacher-recorder and student athlete. But what makes any field day a hit whether records be broken or not, is sportmanship, and the students of O.D.H.S had it. All right, you of the next generation! Try and beat this field day! 24 ':' Ognongso Q by Mr. R. Seltzer KStaffD Wednesday afternoon, October 15, saw the local High School squad win the opening game of the Sixeman football league. The Red and Blue team managed to squeeze by Mount Forest 17-16. It was a very closely played game throughout with the score at half time 6-6 and at threeequarter time llell, Outstanding for Orangeville was the sixty minute work of Gordon Marshall at centre, the running of Jim Reid from the half spot, and the field generalship of John Kearns. U0 O0 I0 Playing on the Fergus field Friday, October 17, the Red and Blue squad lost its first game of the season by a score of 22-16 The two teams were evenly matched, with the score being close throughout the games The Orangeville boys had a much smoother ground attack than the opposition but Fergus was better in the air, scoring all its touchdowns from passing playso Particularly effect- ive was the running of newscomers Bill Rohmer and Pete Gendron and veterans Jim Reid and Gordon Marshall, 9001100 Scoring its best all round offensive and defensive display of the year, the local Red and Blue squad trampled Fergus 28-10 on the locals' field Wednesday afternoon, October 220 The whole team was Wupn for this game and was determined to take Fergus after losing by one touchdown to them the previous week. As proof of this Orangeville struck early and hard so that at half time the score read l6D5 for Orangeville. Nor did they let up in the second halfo The High School team deserves credit for its splendid showing this year, blending experienced players with raw recruits. These boys have presented a good allsround club and if they continue to play as well in the remaining games, they stand a very good chance of copping the title two years in a rows Scoring almost at will, the Orangeville football squad took the measure of Shelburne 53QO at Shelburne on Wednesday, October 29. The entire team played a good game, Particularly outstand- ing was the work of quarter Jim Bower who called and kicked his team to a convincing victoryo For the second game in succession, half George Phillips scored fo r touchdownso I ' V. , s v , l 1 . , dh Q .-. , :gl . ,g ff' 'Fw r-g.gg-.:v.. . 4 Senior BapKetBal1 Team CQgmEiQHShiE-QQQgQ-n Ei2lQ7D2z J.

The Orangeville blocking and tackling were sharp and thwarted any S.H.S. efforts when in close enough to score. Ol HN Playing the return game in Orangeville on Wednesday, November 5 Shelburne again went down to defeat by the score of 42-5. At no time in the game did they look capable of turning,on an offensive to make the score close. Gendron, who played an outstanding game offensively and defensively ran for three majors in the day. Playing their most important game of the schedule at Mount Forest on Friday, October 31, the local gridders came up with their poorest display of the season in losing 35-7 to Mount Forest. Mount Forest worked a two platoon system very effectively. Their passing attack was extremely good and the work of their defen- sive six was outstanding. On the other hand, the Orangeville boys had no Ndrivew at all and all their efforts were thwarted by a very alert opposition. ll M N For a very close football struggle, Mount Forest edged the Orangeville Red and Blue squad 18-16 in a sudden death game played at Mount Forest on Wednesday afternoon, November 120 By virtue of the win Mount Forest holds for one year the Shelburne Retail Merchants' Trophy emblematic of six-man football supremacy in the Shelburne district The game was hard fought from start to finish and the issue was in doubt right down until the final minute of playa Throughout the game good sportsmanship prevailed. It was a good game to win and a tough one to lose, Outstanding for Mount Forest offensively were the two tall ends who could outjump the Orangeville defenders on all passeso Mount Forest had a strong defensive unit, particularly their left half. All of the Orangeville boys played good, sound football and it was no disgrace to lose to a better football team. 26 - Boy's Intramural Spgrts - by nr. R. Seltzer Again this year a very successful noon-hour intramural volleyball schedule was conducted. Both junior and senior leagues were run off. The junior league comprised two teams from each of 9-X and 9-Y. 'In the senior league there were representative teams from lOA, l0B, ll, 12, 13 and Commercial. Interest was high in this October to January activity as witnessed by the fact that 110 boys competed. Enthusiasm was high among the rabid rooters. By virtue of having the better average the team captained by Glenn McNeill played a best 2 out of 3 series against Bob Fife. Winner of this play was Bob Fife. Competition in the senior league was very keen and a lot of friendly rivalry was experienced. Since there was a three-way tie for second place a semi-final series was conducted. Com ercial emerged winner and met Grade 12 in the final round. For some un- accountable reason Grade l2 faltered and Cmmnercial won the champion- ship in two straight games. Following the completion of the volleyball schedule an intramural programme was ru off in basketball. The junior league included boys of Grade 9 and 10 while the senior league included the rest of the boys in the school. An outstanding feature is the fact that 90 boys competed in the 5-team junior schedule and A-team senior group. Twenty games were played among the juniors and eighteen fixtures were run off by the seniors. Games were of twenty minutes duration with a junior and senior game played every other noon hour. The two top teams of the juniors met in a sudden death game. Bower came out on top winning 17-9. Checking was very close and shooting quite erratic so that the score was but 5-5 at three quarter time. With Jim Bower and Arnold Smith making the plays Jim Miller hooped 10 points in the final minutes to take the game. Members of the winning team with their points scored in brackets are: Winners: Bower, Smith CAD, Miller Clll, Wallace C2J, Woodyard, Larson. Competition in the senior league was keen as witnessed by the large gallery of fans each noon hour. The teams of Dods and Dobson met in a thrilling final game with the fonuer team winning 16-12 o Dods' team went ahead early on some good set shots to lead 1he2 at half time.

' At the Annual Play Day at 0.A.C., May'l6, the 0.D.H.S. boys acquitted themselves very well with the high calibre outside compet- ition they had to meet. , During the afternoon, Bill Rohmer broke the previous 880 yard dash record by 13 seconds and as well came third in the ALO yard dash, Intermediate B. Diminutive Jack Morrison worked very hard for a third place in the Senior B pole vault and George Phillips placed a good third in the Senior B 880 yard dash. ,J Now that the students have got a taste of better competition, there will be a bigger contingent than ever making the trip next year. It has been proven that the O.D.H,S. has the students and athletes to meet and defeat outside competition. - Girls' Spgrts Q ' by Miss Ewing Early last autu n the sports season opened for the girls with organized intramural Hit-Pin Baseball. At the end of the sched- ule, Edith de St. Aubyn's team emerged victorious and the girls moved inside for volleyball. By Christmas the junior title was captured by Roselyn Su1livan's team-and the senior by Olive Dodds' team. When the junior and senior teams went to Brampton, the juniors were'success- ful but the seniors went down to defeat. The same results were record- ed at Shelburne but when Shelburne and Acton came to Orangeville, both our juniors and seniors were winners on both occasions. After Christmas a league of 6 teams of basketball occupied the noon hours. By Easter Hall had defeated James and Fleetham had defeated Dodds in the semi-finals. The final round however, saw Bev. Hall's team take the honours. When Brampton's basketball teams visit- ed Orangeville in January, our seniors won but the juniors failed to break the visitors? strong defense. When the return games were played in Brampton, Brampton led all the way. The Orangeville girls are to be congratulated for their splendid showing in the first annual Dufferin lnterQSchool Track Meet when they took all three cups in competition with Shelburne and Grand Valley: Senior Champion, Evelyn Hildredg Intermediate, Marjorie Nixon Ju ior, Carol Peck.

IX There was great hustle and bustle in the halls of O.D.H.S. on that Friday in March. What was the reason for all the commotion? Why, it was the day of the grade niner's literary progra me. ' After the singing of O Canada on that afternoon about 2.30, Bob Dods, who is president of the Student Council, welcomed everyone to the last, but we hope not the least, literary meetings of the season. He then handed the show over to the master of cerem- onies Mike Gendron who took over from then on. To start the after- noon off smoothly, Diane Parsons and Bernace Nute played a piano duet which most of the audience recognized as nNolau. Next on the script was a gymnastic display which was under the direction of Miss Ewing. It consisted chiefly of some well- executed pyramids and tumbling done by some of the girls. A fashion show fwhich had no relation to Miss McPhedran's in models or nu bersl was then presented. Paul Henderson acted as commentator and introduc- ed everything from Clem Horne in a one piece bathing suit to John van Duyvenvoorde in diapers. There must have been a lot of clothes from the gay nineties brought out of mothballs to feature this part of the show. . Donna Fagin and Gwen Cook found to their disappointment that there were no skits appropriate for the occasion available, so they wrote one themselves. 'The short play let the audien e sit in on a student council meeting of 1957, when grade nine of today would be in grade thirteen. There were many suggestions which would make the audience believe that in the future the life of a High School student would be simplified. 'We may have future journalists in our midst. L Characters: Bob Fife, president, Wally Campbell, secretary, memb- ers, Jean Beeney, Paul Courtney, Donna Fagin, Gwen Cook and Sheila Anderson. Since the beginning of the school year, Mr. Smith has had the Military Band organized to take part in school events which would co e up during the course of the year. Grade ninefs Lit was the first of these events and it was very successful. There were introd- uctions to each instrument and also to the musicians. Marches and waltzes made up the programme. All of this section was very good, considering the time Mr. Smith has had to beat it into them. Grade nine did not lack talent in the use of their vocal cords either. A quartet made of Sharon Webb, Jean Harrison, and the Holmes! twins sang, UTip Toe Through The Tulipsu to the accompaniment of Donald Ferguson, an import from Grade Thirteen. This group was so good that they rated an encore. The final number of the afternoon was a medley of old time dances. Mr. Young started the boys and girls practising right after Christmas. The couples practised daily and it was well worth their effort and also that of Mr. Young. After the last number, the MC expressed his gratitude on behalf of the entire grade nine to Miss Ewing, Mr. Smith and Mr. Young for their work on the lit. Everyone agreed, grade nine had possibilities. Nan had baked a chocolate cake. Miss McPhedran: M , but this cake tastes gritty. Nan: The recipe called for three whole eggs. Mr. Young: If I set twelve eggs here, how long would it take me to hatch them out? Student: Sit down and try it sir. Mr. Smith: T m,-give me two pronouns. Tom: Who, me? Teacher: That's right. Jim: Why did the little Moron wear wooden shoes to bed? John: I donFt know. Jim: So if he kicked the bucket he wouldn't hurt his toe. Mr. Seltzer: Jim, What is a puppet? Jim EL: Well, it is a small doll which is made out of wood and it has strings attached to its legs and 8.111150 Mr. Seltzer: Oh, you can pull its leg can you? A Jim.M.: No sir, you pull the strings. Hilda: What is the difference between a cat and a sentence? Sheila: I don't know. ' Hilda: A cat has the claws at the end of its paws, a sent- ence has its pause at the end of the clause. Irritated bus driver: Come on lady, you are holding up my bus. - Lady: Don't be silly, I can't lift one of your wheels.

IX On the morning of March the sixth at nine o'clock, sixty five agriculture students of grade nine and ten boarded two buses to leave for the Ontario Agriculture College in Guelph. We arrived at our destination at half past ten to be welcomf ed by some college aggies. These aggies were to act as guides to direct us to various buildings to examine different exhibits. we visited nu erous livestock barns where we saw the diff: erent classes of livestock and poultry. The guide then lead us to the greenhouses where there were many varieties of flowers and other plants such as the Indian Rubber tree, Banana tree etc., and also tropical fish. Then the guide escorted us to the floral exhibits to see many vegetables, fruits and flowers. Just before dinner we proceeded to the gymnasium where we saw the exhibits put on by the Ontario Aggriculture CollegeQ the Ontario Veterinary College, Agronomy, Soil, Chemical, Dairy, Science Club and many others. There were thirteen exhibits altogether. At half past twelve we sat down to a tasty free meal served by the women of MacDonald Institute. After dinner when the girls watched the fashion show the boys were allowed to dream up and visit whatever they desired for the afternoon, just as long as they were on the buses at half past three. Our group remained together and headed to the livestock barns to watch the cattle and pigs being judged. From there we continued to the poultry barns where we saw geese, turkeys, and hens of all breeds. we then entered the demonstration building where we viewh ed dairy equipment, shop equip ent, apiary products etc. By this time it was twenty minutes after three so we had to head for the buses which left at half past three for Orangeville District High School. It was later expressed by all the agriculture stude ts that it was a very educational trip for the agricultural class of Orangeville Diste riot High School. - Our Efforts - by Donna Fagin Gr.

X X Q A The day dawned foggy and rainy but La H21 Y- the spirits of Grade Ten were not dampened. , '- Why? Oh, because this was February 20th, and ? the day of our WLitW. After many visitors and the members of the school faculty had filed into the gym, Lyn Jelly opened the 3rd meeting of this year with WOh Canadan. Bob Dods welcomed the visitors and fellowbstudents and Ron Strilive read the minutes of the last meeting. After the mot- ions were adopted our Master of Ceremonies Barry Woodyard, made his entrance and announced the first number. This was a play entitled, 'A Ghost Storyw and was directed by Irwin Gillespie. Anna was played by Marilyn McCandless and blushing, stammering George was portrayed by John Patterson. The other members of the cast were: Lennie Q Ruth Murray Mary - Betty Ann Richardson Grace - Carol Colquette Tom Q Roddygwebb Fred - Ted Curtis Lloyd - Lloyd Booth lynn - Doug Bentley Following this rather hu ourous prop sal of marriage and eerie Ghost Story was a sextet made up of Jim Bower, saxaphone, Norman Mitchell, clarinet, Lenore Bradshaw, drums, Mr. Smith, piano, Jim Platt, bass fiddle. This sextet played its own versions of WBasin Street Bluesn, and WBlues In the Nightn. Between these two nu bers the UTen B W wind section played WMood Indigon. Ilm sure everyone enjoyed these musical renditions. Next on the programme was a 3-set play called WLooking Backn It brought memories of our grade nine and ten years up to date. The first act was named UA Typical Music Classn. Mr. Smith was played by Irwin Gillespie who often, may I say, quoted our gifted Mr. Smith. Following this was the next scene entitled nThe Awkward Squadn, which was a take-off on Cadets Qalthough rather exaggeratedl. While scenes were being changed backstage Irwin Gillespie and Carol Colquette playa ed a duet named Jealousy in WTangoW time. The last section of this play was the grande finale called UAn Agricultural Weddingn. Jack Golden was the blushing bride, John Hughes the nervous groom and Bill Rohmer the minister. The enjoyable meeting was brought to a close with the sing: ing of WThe Queenn. Mr. Cline: WI believe you missed m class yesterdayn. John E. Q Bill R.z nwhy no sir, not in the leastn. - The Ghost Ship - I by Lenore Bradshaw Out of the days, where dead men sleep, In their unknown ocean gravesg Came the broken hull of a sunken ship As it rode the storm tossed waves. X Her prow was shapeless, her bulwarks crushed, As under a giant's footg But she heaved and rolled like a gallion bold Filled with Spanish loot. She had slept since the days of Sir Francis Drake She had sailed the seven seasg A proud ship, a strong ship, As she ran before the breeze. But now she was wrapped in a misty shrowd, Her canvas was twisted and grayg Her decks were cold and deserted As she went upon her way. A G ost Ship rode the waves that night, Searching the ocean o'erg For her pirate crew and her captain One To capture her pride of yore. - Night in Day - by Ed Wallace X night in the middle of the day Two dead men started forking hayg A blind man drove the horses straight And a dummy shouted HOpen the gaten. The And For And And And old dead horses went galloping through just about then the dummy turned blue, the horse kicked the blind man right ' in drove him up till he hit the sky. just about then the day turned night darkness covered this dreadful night.

X Now many years ago when I was a little wee lad there lived just outside of town an old bachelor with his dog, Ship. This old bachelor grew the most delicious watermelons for miles around. So e other little urchins of the neighbourhood and I had been contemf plating how we might procure some of these without carrying away a load of buckshot from his shot gun. One dark September night we formed up into platoons and set out. The trip of about a mile and a half was uneventful except for Bonehead running over the end of the culvert into the creek. we parked our bicycles about five hundred yards down the road and sneek- ed on hands and knees the rest of the way. About this time the heavens opened up and it started to pour so that by the time we arrived at our destination, we were thoroughly soaked and literally plaster- ed with mud. Our plan of attack said that we had to go around the back of the barn and so to the patch. we slipped, slithered and slashed through the ploughed field which now resembled a skating rink. As we neared our goal we heard a muffled Wglubu from someplace only to discover that Skinny had fallen into the water trough and couldn't get out. . a Finally as we were there, oroso we thought, we all set to carrying big round objects to the road, breaking only one when Fatty stepped on it with his foot and couldn't get it off. Suddenly from out of the stillness there came a howl. The game was up. Run for your life. Just then a volley of shots rang out and lead whistled over our heads. Desperately each grabbed a big melon and took out across the ploughed field with mud flying every way. Skinny, who had the foresight to see this coming, had tucked his under his sweater so as to have better balance. As we slashed across the field amid the hail of flying buckshot, clods of mud, and flying legs, we could hear the bachelor saying something to the effect that there were some boys in his garden. By now we were out of range and to the fence so we climbed' over and had just sat down when we heard a whoosh, plop, then skwish, only to see Skinny flat on the ground with something oozing out of his sweater. When we all crowded around him to help him off with his sweater, suddenly through the darkness we saw the remains of a nice V big yellow pumpkin. we had gone to all this trouble, risked our lives, and all for what? A collection of pu pkins. Well you can imagine that there were a few sad boys in our town for a while after that. There once was a fellow nam d Ray, Who fell off a big load of hayg When asked what had happened, He said he was flattenedg Did you hear what else he did say? by Bev. Hillis Gr.

Times do change, and even the people of today have changed greatly, say in the last thirty years or so. Let our thoughts go back to the late F2O's. A young and gay Wsheiku dressed in the com on coonskin coat of that time, red sweater and navy blue longs is on his merry way to call upon his WShebaW. He is recklessly driving a crimson-red hotrod along a quiet suburban street. At the front gate he honks the horn loudly, till at last a pretty, young flapper emerges from the tall, majestic house beyond. She is dressed just as gaudily as he, in a light green dress that just barely reaches her knees, a rust-coloured coat, and rust cap that fits tightly to her bobbed hair. Also, she is wearing turned down silk hose and high heel- ed shoes. Into the car she hops and they are roaring off to a silent movie of Charlie Chaplin, and the WMystery of the Diamond NecklaceU., At the movie house other couples can be seen dressed similarly and all in a gay young mood. , But what of the family at home? What are they like? Well, let us take a closer look and see for ourselves. h Mother, in a dress that comes just below her knees, a pair of slightly lower-heeled shoes and cotton hose, is busily clearing away the supper dishes. Father, wearing a dull blue pinestripe suit and waiste coat, a starched white shirt and a knitted black silk tie is trying to recline comfortably on a hard backed settee and to read the daily paper. When the last dish is put away, Mother comes into the living room and sits in a chair, where she immediately begins to darn a pair' of woollen socks. They settle themselves for a quiet evening at home, and wait for their daughter to return by ten o!clock. Now let us return to the year 952. A sleek, blue convertible stops quietly at the front of a low, ranch-styled house. Out steps a young man in a black velvet sports jacket, light blue strides and with his hair in a brush cut. He rings the chimes on the front door and is admitted into the house. In about fifteen to twenty minutes a girl, dressed in red corduroy suit, white nylon blouse, nylons and ballerina shoes descends the stairs. She says goodbye, and leaves with her boy friend to see a show WThe Stratton Storyn and then go to a dance, At home Mother in a navy silk dress, nylons and high heels is clearing away the dishes and puts them into the dish washer. In the spacious living room Father, in a pair of grey flannels, red plaid sports shirt and no tie is reclining comfortably in his easy chair, reading the daily paper. His feet are resting lazily on a hassock. When the dishes are done, Mother goes into the bedroom where she dons a light green sports skirt and blouse. Together she and father leave the house to spend a pleasant evening at the bowling alley. 46 At midnight they return, and retire for the evening. , Two-thirty arrives and Daughter returns h mw from her date, but like most young couples they sit for awhile before she goes in!!! People certainly have changed, both in fashion and manner and I have given you, in my discussion, only one of the examples of how times change. Yet it is only natural for it to be different, for even then in the '2O's is a great comparison of life to that of the l800's. Most likely our future descendents will look back at today!s life and declare emphatically how old fashioned and out moded we were. Then, a young man will call upon his girl in a pea-green space suit and riding in a bright purple rocket ship. The girl will emerge fr m a fantastic creation of glass and off they will go to visit Mars or some such planet. Yes! Times really do change! Each night I labour long and late, To have my homework done. I just can't seem to find the time To have a little fun. I get to bed at ten oFclock And talk until eleven. I only close m eyes in sleep When I hear the bell at seven. I think itwould be a good idea To take a holidayt Forget my teachers and my books Perhaps for just a day. by Pat Evans XI In Orangeville High School you will see In both the students and facultyg Examples of the following three: Friendship, Fellowship, Fraternity.

Now dear I'm not complaining - much But here is my decision, You spend just too much leisure time With that darn television. It's wrestling matches, hockey games Or just somebody talking, I wish instead of watching it You'd do a little walking. H H H Now that it's spring in the country, What a wonderful place it should be, With the birds and bees and the gentry All strolling 'round 'neath the trees. But the weather won't suit the gentry, And the flowers are late for the bees, So I think we'll all leave the country - with the mud that's up to our knees. by Miss Spring Cheer XI H H H A bit of a dunce was wee Willy, His teachers considered him silly.

Do you remember how you sang your voice away trying to drown out your neighbour or how you were searching for an appropriate joke to get the ball rolling? ' It seemed no time at all before the Swift Canadian plant loomed up before us and we were belng escorted through the groundso There we were taken to a room where we were informed of the forthcoming tours Here, too, we were shrouded in long, flowing, starchy robeso Now do you recall why we were obliged to wear them? The tour itselfg lasting for two hours, led us through various departments each with its own particular Waromawe We learned how meat on the hoof is processed until we know it as different cuts at our butcher's0 After the tour we lunched ln the plant's cafeteria on hot dogs and a beverage while thumbing through our pamphletso From here we were driven to the parliament buildings, where we were told to assemble again at one o'clock0 What did you do? Remember? The tour through the parliament building started promptly at ones Our guide pointed out the more noteworthy things as we progressed' from hall to hall and finally came to the main chambers Inside, each sitting in a member's chair, we learned of the various aspects and rude iments of our governments After his informative talk, the gulde received a few questions from our midst e that is Peggy James and Dave McClearys Then we were allowed to browse arounde Do you remember how regal it felt to sit in the speaker's chair and look down at the other kids WJohn Henrylngw the guest book? The next time you are sitting there, let's hope it ls the real thing, It was a good tour, wasn't it? when we had parked in a central locationg the bus depot, we were informed that the remaining hours till six were ours to do with as we choseo Some went shopping, some went to a shows Let's see now, what did you do? At six o'clock, with all aboard, we picked our way through the Toronto traffic to the CONOEO grandstand where there were seemingly thousands of teenagers all decked out in their school coloursa I'm sure, had someone thought to remind us, we would have sported our red and blue tooo Inside there were manyp many school groups all raising a hullabaloo with their cheers, but the school giving the greatest cheer Q0as.o 00000 Orangevllle High, of courses The two football games were keeno Added to this extras gavance were a display of bands, and cheerleaders and a running event and cheerleaders and six man rugby and cheerleaderso Gosh 8 52 After the last ball was kicked and the last hoarse cheer sounded, we gathered our numb bones together and raced to the warmer bus. All the way home our minds were filled with the crowded events of the day and the feeling of being with such wonderful classmates. From that trip perhaps you will forget about how meat is processed or government handled but let us not forget the wonderful spirit that existed. And as we grow older perhaps we will remember that seemingly funny verse on the wall of the Donut Shop where we stopped to snack after the football game: NAS you tramp along through life, brother, Whatever be your goal, Keep your eye upon the doughnut And not upon the holen. HHH Q Tbg Baiilg - by Ione Stubbs XI-A The snow-plough gave a malignant roar like that of a frustrated giant. But the snow drift, a lifeless mound of unresist- ing white substance, gave no sign of the effect on it. With another scream of pure rage the snoweplough gathered its forces for another attack. A mighty rush, a fierce heave, and still the snow refused to budge, giving the impression that it was inpregnable. The machine gave a snarl of defeat but something in its physical make-up refused to let it accept this verdict. This time with a somewhat less defiant roar, the snow-plough attacked again. With a mighty push the snow-plough surged forward. This time for some inexplicable reason the snow moved. It flowed out on each side leaving a clear path between.

XI A nCoronation Tean was held on Tuesday, May 26 from 3 to 4.30 p.m. in the home economics room. The girls of grades eleven and twelve were entertaining their mothers, teachers and the wives of the members of the school board. At three o'clock the hostesses Nan Scott, Joan Lowe and Jean Clowes took their places near the door ready to guests. It had been raining and we wondered if very up, but shortly after three o'clock our guests began The home economics room had been decorated welcome their many would show to arrive. along the Coronation theme. Blue and red crepe paper, with gold shields and crowns adding a decorative touch, disguised the blackboards. The usual bouquets of flowers were about with the addition of flags. The dining-room table, decorated with a small coach surrounded by tiny flags, made a gracious setting for the two girls who For several days prior to this, our little poured tea. homemakers, under the supervision of Miss McPhedran, had been preparing for this event. The home economics room was spic and span and delicious aromas were permeating the corridors from the kitchen making the mouths of passers-by water. Finally everything was ready D the cookie tins has been filled to their brims and the refrigerator with sandwiches. The students anxiously awaited the arrival of their guests soon to fill the room with a beeehive of activity. Shortly after fourethirty when the last guest had gone, the inevitable stack of dishes remained but before starting to work again we were to have our turn to taste the products of our labours. Our repast was by no means meagre for there was an abundance of food remaining. We all hope that our tea was a success and that our guests enjoyed themselves as much as we did.

Bernadette Garvey, the very capable mistress of ceremonies then took over. L The first number on the program s was a girls' dance, directed by Margaret Rennick. The costu es certainly were original and very amusing. Next came an excellent display of boys' gymn- astics, under the skilled eye of Jackie Morrison. The program s was next highelighted by the appearance of three gentlemen, dressed in blue trousers, white shirts, and straw hats trim ed with red. They were Doug Burnett, Don Ferguson, and Lindsey Jelly, who had very aptly adopted the name of the WRed a d Blue Trion. For their first musical number, Lindsey played the piano, Don his accordian, and Doug sang UMy Blue Heavenn. Lindsey and Don then played UEHmer's Tunen, on piano and accordian. After much applause Don seated himself at the piano beside Lin and they played their arrangement of UStumblingU. Doug. reappeared and the three boys did a splendid job singing WI'm Confessin!W accompanied by Don on the piano. Their next arrangement of WDangerous Dan MoGrewN was a big success. The boys received a well deserved encore, and for it Doug sang NMaybeW. dHSparks From an Old Flamen was the title of the hilariouswfa one-act play which followed. It concerned a merry'mixeup of old and new'boyefriends, but got straightened out by the end. Joan Henderson and Mary Jackson should be com ended for the way in which they direct- ed its Gayle McNeill Jessie Beam ' Bill Anderson Herbert seam, her husband. Gloria Cooney Mary Beam, their daughter. Bruce Small Wellington Porter, an old suitor. Clarence Proctor Nick Porter, his son. Dawn Kirkness Clara fthe maid! A novelty number was last on the prog a me. Marilyn Nod- well and her cornet presented a rythmical story of her musical career. John Kearns, who couldn't stand her playing any longer rushed on to give her some much needed help. They spied Terry WShortie' Hicks with his saxaphone and asked him to give some assistance. Lastly, a new boy from Grade Nine, Mr. Gibson, came on with his clarinet. The quartet proceeded to play a Dixieland version of NMuskrat Ramblen. They received an encore for their good work. The literary was brought to a close with the singing of WGod Save the Queenu. Diane: n5o etimes my father takes things apart to see why they donFt gon. Doug: nSo,'what!W Diane: WSo you'd better gon. 58 - Hobby Show - Q by Terry Hicks XII On February 16, 1953 at nine o'clock the boys of Grade XII joyously piled into Coles' Bus and to a resou ding chorus of popular medlies were off for the Hobby Shown While bouncing along the Queen Elizabeth way a green car, driven at a reckless speed, quickly over- took and passed us. It was no other than Miss McPh dran and the girls of the Home Ec. class who had the same destination in mind. Upon our arrival at the C.N.E. grou ds we discovered that we were a half a hour early and not a few of us embarked on a hasty tour of inspection of the grand city. However, a little less actively perhaps, the group finally arrived back at the Hobby Show, paid their 50 cents and walked in. You may imagine our surprise when we found that these exe hibits included everything from jewellery and pen nibs to rabbits and guinea pigs. So varied and interesting were the displays that it would be folly to attempt to describe them all to you. Probably the most exacting and detailed exhibit of all were the pictures made completely from different coloured woods. At a short distance these pictures would be very hard to distinguish from that of an artist. For endless hours it seemed we poked straws at defense- less rabbits, whistled at mute canaries, observed the benefits of Dic-A-Doo-Paint Remover, and eyed what seemed to be thousands of time consuming hobbies. There were models of all descriptions,almost every known piece of furniture in the world, stamp collections, coin collections, rugs, model railroads, power tools, photography equip- ment and - but thats enough. It is needless to say that all concerned had a wonderful time and enjoyed themselves immensely. At three o'clock everyone had assembled at the bus and were at last homeward bound, a bunch of tired but happy fellows. Music Student: Mr. Smith, do cats go to heaven? Mr. Smith: Of course not. Student: Well, where do angels get the strings for their harps. Gloria: You have such wonderful lips. They would look good on a girl. Terry: Well, I have never missed an occasion. 59 - The Rochester Trip e Qmnig by vaiair Lennox X111 - The greatly anticipated trip to C 1'-A Rochester finally arrived on Friday, April ga 5153+ jgff? 2:33 3: the twentyefourth.

Three, other cars, chauffeured by Miss McPhedran, Alan Harrison, and Alex Ling, picked up their loads then also. When everyone was comfortably situated in the luxurious coach for in his respective carl, we rolled happily out of the school drive- way, with a certain feeling of truimph in leaving the less fortunate students behind. As we bus passengers sailed through the various towns and villages, thoroughly enjoying the ride, an occasional outburst of vocal harnunry would interrupt the pensive silence. Sometimes the masculine voices in the rear pews held the general attention, but more often the Wsweet feminine strainsw drowned them out. In a seemingly very short time, the city of Hamilton was reached, and there our entire troup made its first stop. A very intern eating tour of the Stelco Plant took place - the girls riding a great deal, the boys covering the entire territory Cabout ten milesl by foot, we absorbed the numerous sights readily, and learned many worthwhile facts about the production of steel from our obliging guides. CI hope that the tour will prove beneficial to us in Chemistry classl. ,After about three hours of touring, the sighteseeing party continued on its way, and stopped at the Welland Canal, when we hungry travellers-partook of our lunches. Here we had the experience of watch- ing two boats pass through the locks, we were shortly ready to resume our journey, and our next visit was at Niagara Falls. The Falls was a very enjoyable sight for everyone, especially those who had never seen this marvellous spectacle. Several of the group took the opportu ity, while there, to don rainu coats and view the Falls from underneath, this being indeed a novel experience for many, A tour of the Queenston-Chippewa Plant was intended but these plans were cancelled, so we set out again - destination, Rochester, Q leaving behind Alex Ling and his party, who were ready to start home- wards then. we crossed the border at Lewiston, with very little delay at the Customs Offices, then pushed on to Rochester, which we reached about six o'c1ock. The eager boys and girls were unloaded at their respeete ive WY?sW, which were found to be extremely modern and luxurious, providing all the comforts and pleasures for which anyone could wish. 60 Calthough I am obliged to admit that some of the showers didn't work in the Y.Wal The remainder of the evening was spent Won the townn at various places of entertainment. Everyone was in his or her particular sleep- ing compartment at eleven-thirty - the required hour, but there are Wrumoursn that Miss McPhedran and Mr. Cline had a certain amount of trouble getting their children ntucked inn. It is reported that the boys enjoyed a lively pillow fight before they settled down to deep slu ber, and the girls ...... well, shall we just say they were all calmed down by four-thirty, and I might add, it isn't so-o difficult to sleep seven in four beds! The next morning, though rather rainy, failed to throw a wet blanket over our enthusiasm, and the day's schedule consisted of shopp- ing and just Wtaking it easyn. As an example of the girls' entertain- ment that day, when they returned to the NYU with their innumerable wares, they were welcomed by a nu ber of congenial Airforce boys, who provided some interest for a short time before the departure hour, six-thirty. In fact, certain members of the party were honoured by the c mpany of one of the uniformed gentlemen to the bus door, - for one, Miss McPhedran, who caused some jealousy among her more unfortunate rivals. She and Mr. Cline fthe latter travelling with Alan Harrisonl, who were going to stay in the city with their groups until Sunday night, bade us good-bye then, and the long journey homewards was begun, which was, I might mention, somewhat quieter than the journey going. However, excitement appeared in the shape Knot bad either! of a Customs Officer. With innocent faces, and stuffed pockets, we filed past the inspectors, each swearing he had Unothing to declaren. Greatly relieved, the Nsmuggling fiendsn clambered back into the bus and continued onward, stopping once for nthe pause that re- freshesu, just outside Hamilton. Towards one o'clock, the lights of Orangeville appeared thro- ugh the mist, and the weary passengers began to collect their baggage. Before long, we were all hustling through the rain to our place of abode, and soon sound asleep. All told, the trip was an im ense success, and will live on in our memories as an outstanding occasion. On behalf of the students of Grades Twelve and Thirteen, I wish to take the opportunity to thank all the teachers who made this trip possible. Jean Clowes: Whatfs the idea of bringing two men to the dance yOU.o Marg. Brett: Well, in this age of uncertainty, one is obliged to have a spare. 61 There's Always Tosmorrow by Mary Lanktree Gr, XII Yes! I, too, heard.that statement WAn essay will be handed in two weeks from toedayn. But did I pay any more attention to it than to let the thought linger in the back of my mind? Of course not. True, I remembered that the dead line was approaching, but there was always toe morrow coming. u As the last night has so quickly arrived, I suppose it is time that I should commence the ordeal. I am quite comfortable, reclining in an easy chair, the radio close by, and a dish of candy at my side, Since this thing has to be done toenight, I guess I'd better choose a topic and get 'crackingos Now, if I could think up a good excuse I wouldn't have to hand my essay in until later. I could tell Miss Kidd that I'd had a headache, but then she'd say I should have had it written before the last night anyway. That would be all the sympathy I'd get from her. Or maybe I could say that we had had company galore on the weekeend, but Miss Kidd always says we should have enough will power to make ourselves do our homework, so that wouldn't take any longer to write the comp than to think up a good excuse, Now, whoever could write an essay on neckties? I will admit that plenty could be said about some of them. The one that Ike Mitchell wears! Why it's practically a chapter by itselfl With that horrid snake on the front of it, I can almost imagine it taking a bite out of his throat Y It must be quite harmless as nothing has happened yet, And that bright red one I see flashing down the hall ever so often 2 I suppose his girl friend has him wear it so shenll know for sure it's he. 'Noses and Ears' Q why they are such small features that no one pays much attention to them! Noses cost girls plenty though, they have to keep that dull finish on them. But ears are either too big, or too small, or else they stick out too far, Most of them work all right, though, regardless of how they look. Here's a good topic, 'Persuading Father'. If that wasn't such a wide subject I could write on that, Poor father! He thinks he has ten dollars slipped away to buy a new saw, but when he looks, it's gone. Oh yes, he'd wondered where I had gotten the wherewithal to buy that new skirt. Incidentally, I run a sort of one way charge account with him. I borrow but never pay back, And his opinion on my new coat!

Trip to Rochester Q 4-.Cm Guam gg., by Edith de st. Aubyn XII WWe're offiu Yes that was our cry when Miss McPhedran and Mr. Cline left the school with grade twelve Home Economic girls for a trip to Rochester U.S.A. Mr. Cline led the way to Brampton but there Miss McPhedran took the lead. we were thinking about all these poor students getting out of school. was asked where she was born. Do you know that she couldn't remember. That's just how excited we all were. Everything had gone well until then. WWhat's that sme1l?W Miss MePhedran asked. Wlt must be rubber. Oh my gracious therels a flat tired. Mary Lanktree wanted to be of some help so she offered to work the jack. IPm.sorry to say that she didn't have to, because a truck driver fixed the tire for us. When Mr. Cline came back we continued on to a garage where all the necessary repairs were made. V Little happened until we reached Rochester. Ted, Mr. Cline's brother, met us and we were escorted to the Y.W.C.A. What interested us most here were the elevators, the type which you operate yourself. Of course, many of us made unnecessary trips from floor to fl0Cro Bang? Rattle! Itfs a miracle that the management of the NYU didnft give us orders to be more quiet. we made quite a noise at our night gossip circles and our midnight snacks. I suppose they knew that we weren't going to stay long. U On Saturday the group separated into pairs and we started our shopping excursion. I think we must have bought everything image inable. My advice to everyone is to take twice the amount of money you think is necessary and then maybe youull have a penny or two left. After coming back from shopping some watched television, others rushed to the recreation room where they played such games as pingepong, and the rest ran from.room to room. These activities seemed to cause many of us to be hungry, so we headed for a restaurant. we were surprised to find that the exeellent food we ordered was quite reasonable with our purses. Saturday night found us sitting in the balcony of a theatre. I forget what the nam of the show was. After the show we raced home in the rain. Thus you see that it rains in Rochester as well as in Orangeville. ' A slumber party was our entertainment Saturday night - I should say Sunday morning. Posted at the door was Marg to warn us when Jean D. and Miss MePhedran were coming. We packed ourselves into the closets. As usual there was plenty to eat and lights didnnt go out until after 2.15 a.m. 64 Sunday was a beautiful day and most of us were wishing that we didn't have to go home. Mr. Cline met us in the afternoon and we started on our homeward journey. At the border we claimed the goods which we'd bought and enjoyed a delicious dinner at the Motel Leonard- compliments of Mr. Cline. Mercid The home trip was quite quiet until the Canadian snow stonm swept down upon us. we were all driving as much as Miss MbPhedran. What town is that ahead? Oh, it must be Orangeville for thereFs Miss Ewing driving her new Chevrolet. 'The trip was over, I was sorry to say.

Trip to Hobby Show - by Dawn Kirkness Q Mary Lanktree N Grade XII On February 9th, the Grade XII Home Econo ics class left at 9 o!c1ock to attend the International Hobby Show held in the Colesium in Toronto. Naturally the girls first visited the department stores, downtown, shopping for the material and patterns which they needed for their next project in Home Eb. e suits. After lu ch they left for the Hobby Show, The girls were especially interested in the leather craft and glass blowing exhibits. A few had their hand writing analysed Cthe superstitious ones, that isl. They spent some time examining the fine Indian jewellery, and Swedish weaving which was displayeda The main event was the fashion show'where children's, adult's and teen-agers' clothes were modelled, One of the attractions was . clothes that could be worn at the Coronation, As an added attract- ion, there was also a preview of it Q tea at the Savoy, dinner at the Grovener, and a small section of the procession at Westminister eye Shortly after viewing this we left for home with visions of dream gowns filling our minds. Q How Times Change Q by Clarence Proctor VXII Gone are the days in O.H.S, When the halls were described as a crowded messg Now all one hears is a rythmic beat, As the walls keep time to the marching feet. The students tramp by with a left and a night, Not one out of step from the morning till night. They sit at attention throughout the long day Then rise and salute when they have something to say. The curriculumis changedg fthere's no Math or no French!

Just look at Russia and things aren't so rosy. There's war in Koreag in England the flood Has ravaged the country, and left only mud Where once stood their houses, proud and majestic, The tense situation seems more than just drastic. But now on the pleasanter aspects of life All is not merely hardship and strifeg The world wide Olympics are just in the making Far famed Championships just for the taking. And everywhere too is this British nation we breathless await the famed Coronation, The papers are filled with the writers narrations Of budgets and taxes, no matter one's station. There's part of the picture that we daily read About in the papers, and much more we heed, This nation has troubles and worries and sorrows But also its bright sides and happy tomorrows. - Our Chauffeur Q by Joanne Donaldson XII ' The driver of our morning bus Is full of fun indeedg I know why he's a cheerful cuss, His seat is guaranteed. A He sits up on his cushioned throne, And drives with all his mightg Hearing at intervals a moan Or the curdling yells of a fight. Sheila: I shall marry for brains . Valair: I shall marry for beauty. Camilla: Well, everybody for what he needs. - A Life In School - i y by Dawn Kirkness XII Many, many, years ago A When I was in Grade oneg I longed to be in High School, I thought it would be fun.

Now, after years of toiling, I've almost reached my ahmg But oh! what condition! Don't laugh, there're lots the same.

One more year of this - I hope - My vocation will be labelledg I'll go into the world to work, If I'm not too dis-abled. Miss Kidd: Clarence, what is a toastmaster? Clarence P.: I think it's a kind of a toaster maFam. Dawn K: You know, I think association with brilliant companions is half one's school career.

He strides to the stage, looks around, gives a roarg And each sinner shakes at his place on the floor. WThis fraternization twixt classes must stopln He hesitates, frowns, yells, UI'm posting a Copin And the very first student caught saying one thing To his classmate, or even attempting to sing - Will be picked up, and punished, and told he's a fool And to never come back thru the doors of this school. So now in the hallways of dear O.H.S., The silence is golden, there's no noise, unless The voice of a teacher is heard in the gloom As he teaches his lesson to a quite empty room. For none of.the students could bear the strict rules, They all have departed to some other schools, But the principalfs happy, as he walks up the hall, There's no noise, thereas no students, there's just nothing at all. - Spriggtime Q by Margaret Brett XII Oh, to see the budding beauty On a mistic April day, When the Spirit of the Springtime Comes aesinging on its way! When the shadows of the evening Creep into cooling depths, Then I love to wander idly Down the lane with lingering steps. When the night has softly fallen And to Dreamland I have gone, In my slu bers low sweet music Faintly echoes 'till the dawn. 69 - Ing Ggadggtigg Baggugt - by Marilyn Nodwell XII During the five years at high school we are creating friend- ship far more lasting than those found in professional life. However, at graduation our paths diverge and as time marches on communications between us become rarer and eventually stop altogether, Yet memories of school events seem to bring us closer together -- especially one, the Graduation Banquet, which is held in the graduates' honour. This year's annual Graduation Banquet for Grade XIII and Senior Commercial was held on Friday evening, January 9th, in the 'Red Ball Room' of the high school, The noonsday cafeteria, having been transformed by the appearance of fl wer decked lunch tables and lighted candles became the banquet hall for the occasion. Serving as place- cards were blue graduation caps with a diploma attached to the brim and on each was an appropriate prophecy. It is without a doubt that every graduate, guest and staff member enjoyed the dinner served to them by members of the Home Economics Department under the careful supervision of Miss McPhedran. Who made those delicious pies? No, it wasn't the members of the fair sex. The cooks were none other than the Grade XIII and Commercial boys 2 Just one glance at the menu will show just why the meal was Wfit for a Queen'. MENU Fruit Cocktail Roast Turkey ' 8 Dressing Peas 8 Carrots Mashed Potatoes Brown .Gravy Salad Relishes Fresh Rolls Home Made Pies Coffee Cream Punch Wlt almost makes me wish I vow, To have four stomachs like a cown, . Following dinner, Bob Dods, the capable toastmaster for the occasion proposed the toast to the Queen, His many humorous remarks added to the happy atmosphere of the occasion. Harold Dodds, while toasting the Alma Mater reminded us that once we did not have the advantages of a beautiful new school on the hill, 7U It is here, he said, that we learn the spirit of co-operation, friend- ship and leadership, which will all combine to help us in our chosen vocations. Let us hope that our endeavours will always be a contributing factor to the success of the school, just as the school has contributed to our success. In replying to Harold's toast, Mr. Kalbfleisch stated that the task of a school is to turn out graduates who have a far-reaching knowledge - one which will carry them through the bad as well as the good. Our school has always ranked high in all standards, in academic as well as athletic and social affairs. It is the spirit of co-operat- ion and good will which has made this possible and it is our hope that this spirit will continue to contribute to the school's success in the future just as it has in the past. Music is always a welcome guest at any occasion . Lindsey Jelly, at the piano and Don Ferguson with his accordian took the spot light with their rendition of two favourites, - Stumbling and I'M Confessin I do not envy teachers, was one of the statements made by Shirley Brawley in her toast to the staff. They seem to be the least appreciated group of humans that I know. Teachers are always willing to give us help and advice but we don't always seem willing to accept it. In concluding Shirley said that it was her hope that the present members of the staff would remain at the school for many years to come. Mr. Seltzer, in replying, thanked Shirley for her kind words. He wished the graduating class every success in the future and hoped that each graduate would always remember them not just as teachers but as friends. nThere is a woman at the beginning of all great thingsw. This, Doug Burnett proved in his toast to the ladies. In reply Marg Rennick stated that all would be quite dull if we didn't have the mischievous and smiling faces of the gentlemen to give us assurance in our darkest moments - a History test, for instance. M Jack Morrison and Olive Dodds next read the class prophecies. Many of these, although no more than a gypsy's tea-cup reading could come true. It was Miss Kidd's privilege to toast the guests of honour. She took the students back in memory to their first days in Grade 9, when everything was so strange D when they were looked upon as insignificant beginners by some of the higher forms. Now, as graduates, she stated, you will be setting out on paths of life strange to you. It is everyone's hope that success and happiness will follow you every step of the way. Gayle McNeill thanked Miss Kidd on behalf of the graduates. In closing Gayle said that it was with a feeling of both happiness and regret that they were leaving m sorry to leave familiar faces and rooms and happy that they were one step nearer their goal. The evening was brought to a close by a dance on the cafeteria stage.

The owners of those eyes belonged to the Grade XIII students or some members of the Staff. we started the party with three contestsg the fir t was to guess who belonged to the eyes. For the second one the boys went ine to a dark ro m and poked their noses through cardboard. nNow who owns that nose?W Noses separated from father face look all the same and the girls had terr bly low scores in guessing whogs who? The boys were no better, however, when for the third contest the girls changed places with them and showed their lips through the cardboard. The remainder of the night was unorganized, and groups broke off to look at photo albums, have a sing-song, or sit around and talk. And of course the pool sharks were in full swing.N Around eleven we had a wonderful buffet lunch, complete with salad, sandwiches, and sundaes. Then to have fond memories of our Wquietn retiring class, the party ended with a game of Murder. Well kids, the Glines have done it again - a wonderful party in a wonderful year of our life at O.D.H.S. EES The class had been studying the various steps in the manufacture of steel.

The play written by J.M. Barrie, is a modern type of play and is divided into four acts. The first act takes place in a wealthy English home. The master, Lord Loam, and his daughters are preparing to entertain the servants. This is a monthly affair when the servants are treated on an equal basis with their masters, The butler of the household, Crichton, despises these gatherings and everyone knows it. However, Lord Loam believes strongly in equality among all people, and he tells Crichton that their divisions into classes are artificial and that if they were returned to Nature all would be equal, Later Lord Loam, his daughters, a few friends of the family, and Crichton go on a su mer cruise but their boat is wrecked and they become marocned on an island with very few necessities of life and where there are no other inhabitants, On the island Crichton seems to be the only one who can organize things and he takes complete com and while his former masters now become his servants, Finally they are rescued by a passing ship after about a two yearns stay on the island and they return to England, Here Crichton is again the butler. Crichton mentions nothing of what he did on the island but lets Lord Loam take all the praise, However, if it had not been for Crichton the rest would likely have died. Thus we understand the author's choice of the title of the play Q NThe Admirable Crichtonwo The play provided very enjoyable entertainment as well as being quite beneficial for our study of it in class.

Their uniforms were tattered, their beards matted with the results of days and nights of hard riding. They waited, and only their stillness showed the tension of the moment. Wwho will ride ahead?W The question echoed out into the darkness beyond. Brave comrades had ridden off into that hostile blackness, and not one had returned. Unwary sentries had been snatched from their saddles, and had been found later bearing a silent message from the unseen enemies. . Wwho will ride ahead?W the young lieutenant repeat. Wwe must have a guide, but I cannot condemn a man to face death. I shall leave you to choose among yourselves.u For a long time the men sat silent, each taking mental stock of his neighbour - Pedes Armand, an adventurous funmloving Mexican who really had no part in this senseless warg Sogert, who had been raised in surroundings of Southern gentilityg and Zemurray, the roughest of bareroom gunmen. Each soldier compared himself to his neighbour in the shadowy light of the fire, and tried to determine how much more he had to live for than the next man. Finally someone suggested, NWe'll cut cards e high man rides. One by one each man turned from the light of the open fire to look at this man. It was Steiner, professional gambler and part-time soldier. Steiner Q the man who had been known never to lose a draw. A murmur went around the fire-lit circle Q it was agreed. Steiner produced a grimy, dogseared pack of playing cards, shuffled them, and spread them face down on the ground. The men began to pick in order of rank. Each man, from top sergeant to buckeprivate, made a silent prayer, then chose swiftly. For some it was a happy answer to the prayerg for others the open fire lost some of its warmth and comfort. These men had picked high cards e jack here, king theres each higher card adding a feeling of despair to someone but a respite to another. At last, amid the mutterings of the group, Steiner picked his card. It was the two of spades. This was the one draw the men had been sure of 2 Steiner was no man to lose when the stakes were so high. The cards were compared, and the loser, Armand, steeling himself to fight his panic, set out to make final preparations for his lone ride. With his departure, the blazing fire seemed to lose its cheerfulness. The men sat and stared into the flames, each thankful that he had been spared the fatal task. W 74 The brush crackled, A man and his horse approached the fire to say farewell. The men started and were speechless, confounded with surprise and bewilderment, The man was Steiner! He mounted, and with a salute, moved slowly, almost casually, out into the darkness. From that pit, as from an outer world, his voice came back to them.

To help recall the days when we had time to go to shows and dances, fifth form decided to have a party at the Forks of the Credit. As it was a cool Friday evening, during the last week in September, the glowing warmth of the lodge's fireplace was greatly appreciated. About five-thirty, namemtags were given out, which sent every one in merry search of his supper partner. It was a man's size supper, prepared by the Umenw. The meat was a Dodds and Dods special, Mr. Sproule brought the choicest sprouts in southern Ontari Jackie captured one of the largest pumpkins in the Hockley Valley, and Messieurs Durkin and Phillips persuaded their cows to produce whipped cream for the occasion. It was a meal fit for only royality but after all we are the top students in the school. With appetites appeased, and feeling happy with the world, we relaxed before the open fire to sing the old favourites. CSome of these have decidedly newer, revised versions that seem to hold an equal popularityl. Mr. Smith is a terrific leader for a sing song and helped make ours a me orable one. Thanks a million, sir!
