lntereSchool Track Meet by Don Taylor Xlll Even though, the morning of October 6 was very cold and dreary, 300 happy students piled into buses and staff cars and headed for Fergus. This was our first occasion to go to a track meet of this size.. We had been used to having our meets with Shelburne and Honey- Wood, but this was somewhat different as there were ten other schools competing at Fergus., On the Wl'Lole,considering this was our first time in the big time, our school made an excellent showing.. The events started at l0., 30 olclock and continued through until 4.15 p.m. with an hour off for lunch. Both boysl and girlsl events were run concurrently.. ln the boysl division, Malcolm Fraser took honours. He succeeded in getting three firsts: the high jump -2- 5V 4 , broad jump - 18V 9 l, and in the hop step and jump just missed making a record 38a 7'l', Next in line, was Jack Emack who gained two well earned firsts in the Sprints. I-le won the 220 in 2408 seconds, and came up from behind to win the 440 yd. in 55. l seconds., Congratulations also go to Bill Rohmer. I-le set a record in the 880 of 2 minutes 10.6 seconds and established a new record at Fergus for the mile, which he accomplished in 4 minutes 50 seconds. Also placing in the mile was Bill Menary who came in third. Crood going, Bill.. ln the girlsl division , Violet Chambers came 3rd in the junior 75 yd. dashg Carol Peck 2nd in the lntermediate high jumpg Marg Young lst in the Junior Standing Broad Jumpg Rosilyin Sullivan 4th in the 75 yard dash., Shirley Thompson and Rose Sullivan came in 2nd in the girlsl open relay.. Another part of the track meet which you will not find listed on the programme is the participation of the Cheer Leaders who, dress- sed in their smart outfits in the colours of the various schools, ral-2 lied the students and led them in cheering on their respective teams to greater efforts.. Although it was a trying day for them, our cheer leaders were considered among the best there. Congratulations girls. There was also some other exceptional talent giving its contribution to the Field Day., Dressed in. their blue and white uniforms

and doing precision drill, the Arthur Military Band added much to thel gay spirits of the day. They made an excellent showing with their counter-marching, and deserve a lot of credit. The big moment we were all waiting for was drawing near, the judges were about to announce their decisions. We were very much honoured when the judge announced that Malcolm Fraser had won the intermediate championship for the boysg this was out of all the inter- mediate boys from all the schools. He received a suitably engraved cup . ln total points for schools, Elmira was declared the win- ner with 146 points, and second was Listowel. Orangeville placed 5th with 85 UZ points. Cups were awarded to both boys and girls for in- dividual championships. The schools that took part were Elora, Listowel, Oranges ville, Arthur, Mount Forest, Fergus, Drayton, Norwell, and Elmira. Although we did not come out on top, it was a great experience to those of us who wenttto watch, as well as those who took part. Let's keep up the good workg we'll win next year. II H II From The Library Window by Frank Speers XII In the middle of English we hear a great roaring As out to the campus the athletes are pouring, Where jumping is practiced and running for all, And whenever itls raining grade twelve has softball. The players are decked in their skanty gym suits And the mud oozes upward and into their bootsg But who is that umpire dressed fully 'tis plain Complete with red flannels? Sure thatus McFarlane. ll Il II
