Arriving at the high school we were welcomed by students, then taken to one of the teachersl rooms where we were introduced to the other competitors. The three schools representing this area were Arthur, Grand Valley and Orangeville., After choosing our numbers we were escorted to the gymnasiumg at 1:30 the competition began with the junior girls foll: owed by the junior boyso After a brief intermission the seniors then did their stuff . As two years ago, the Home EC. Dept. was opened to us and all sorts of good things were fed to us. This was enjoyed as much as it was appreciated., One amusing incident S- Ted, who as you may remember, gave his speech concerning eating habits good and bad, was forced to sit and eat brown bread and cheese sandwiches plus milk in the midst of cakes, cookies, delicious sandwiches, pickles, etc. etc. etc., Fl While we were eating, Mr. Brown, the principal, and the judges filed solemnly into the room. Sensing our intense curiosityt Mir. Brown immediately gave the results with no prearnble, lmagine this scenes ten competitors listening, one man speaking, otherwise silence?

'l Then bedlam broke loose., lt was the first time one school had ever taken the whole thing., Pictures were taken., telephone calls made, and more food eaten in order to regain the energy just lost in our wild shoults of joy., Miss Kidd was proud of her kids and we were happy that she was happy. Donna Hawke, our most enthusiastic supporter and loudest clapper settled it all by saying You all did good? Barb Worthington l 3B Kincardine C. W. O. S. S. A.

Once again six was the magic number in Judy Thompson, Barb Worthington, Donna Hawke, David King, Ted Smith and Mr. Emigh.
