Allen CountyP bl' L'b 900 Webster Sllregl I my PO Box 2270 Fort Wayne, IN 46801-2270 'he liillinp High on the hilltop above the town, Sits a school of great renown. Every day from eight till nine Boys and girls endeavour to climb Up to the top of that sloping lzill Where they are seldom a 'minute still. Upon the campus grassy and green, Lively students may be seen T-zznzbling 'neath the shade of the trees, Or, gaily marching in the breeze As the Sergeant Major of cadets stands Shouting out his nunzerozls conznzancls. But when indoors, where all should be quiet, It seems impossible for some to try it. In one of the corners two girls chatter brightly, While Miss Neale orders them to loolf less sprightly, And, once in awhile a rare brnsh flies Swiftly past teacher's waltclzfzcl eyes. And, at this school high on the hill There are sports, e.1'ams, and nznsic to fill The lives of -young folk, happy and gay, Who -very soon, will 'make their way Out into the world, where oft they'll stop To recall glad days on old hilltop. -MARY JE AN DOBSON

c OUR TRTP TO QUEENS On April 2lst the allfstar basketball team from the High School was privileged with'an invitation to the Queen's Un- iversity Annual Basketball'Tournament. The boys along with . Mr. Parkinson left the High School Wednesday morning at seven o'clock and arrived in Kingston at eleven-thirty. From here we went to the University and immediately changed for our first game at twelve. Our sleeping quarter was a small gymnasium next to the large gymnasium in which tne games were played. J In the first game we met Almonte which was a fairly strong team. We found when we arrived and saw some of the teams that the competition was much better this year than last, although last yearfs competition was really tough. r We won our first game from Almonte in the last two minutes as we out scored our opposition ten points to two. The boys started out quite strong in this game but later found that the floor was a littleikwviong and thus had to slow the pace down. The lead in this game changed hands many times and Port lads finally coming out on top by the score of 52-48. By winning this game we earned the right to meet Deep River fthe team that defeated us last yearl who in turn had defeated Morrisburg in the morning. This game with Deep River was played at eight o'clock Wednesday night. Our boys were leading in this game right up until the last minute when one basket would put either team ahead. With fifteen seconds left in the game Port Perry was leading by one point and had possession of the ball. Failing to hear the coach telling them to freeze the ball one of the Port players took a shot, but missed. The Deep River player took the ball and threw a pass down the floor and there was a scramble for the ball, with a Deep River player coming out with the ball, and from the foul line took a hook shot, while not watching the ring at all, and with two seconds left the ball fell through the hoop and Port Perry had lost a terrific heart-breaking game by one point. The final score being Lu-AB. By losing this game the Port lads had to play at ten o'clock on Thursday morning against Gananoque who they defeated quite easily by the score of 45 to 29. By winning this game at ten they earned the right to play against Picton for the right to enter the semi-finals for the Albert's College Trophy. This game got under way at 8 o'clock Thursday night with the Port lads coming out on top once again by the score of 50-37.
