Spike , Point , Side down , -- these words could be heard echoing from Gym 3 as an enthusiastic team practiced for games. The girls ' vim, vigour and vitality paid off when they tied for first place with Central at the first in- vitation tournament in October. Teams from Listowel, St. Marys, Mitchell and Central met at Northwestern and results were three wins each for Northwestern and Central. Our girls must have given competing schools quite a scare because when they came back for the final tournament here all the teams seemed to be much more skilfull. The girls played well. However, they were edged out and placed fourth. Better luck in ' 68, girls. Mr. Conroy: How can I correct this: I ain ' t had no fun all summer ? Neil Taylor: Try another summer resort.

VOLLEYBALL FRONT: Evan Ehgoetz, Ross Schaeffer, George Rupert. BACK: Nolan Swartzentruber , Bill Jones, Mr. Riou, Bob Bryant, Paul Dunsmore. The year is over. Whew! It was a frustrating year but an enjoyable one. The team performed well in the Perth-Huron tournament. They had a few bad breaks - but its all in the game, There were many rookies on the team, but they can become the nucleus of the squad next year. Having a Grade XIII will be an advantage for the future. Experience is necessary for a contending team. Look Out! Our hopes are high. Beward Central, there is a dark horse (Northwestern) in the crowd. All boys are invited to tryout for next year ' s team - and: to taste success. Coach - Mr. Riou

From the enthusiastic turnout for the ' 67 team Mrs. Thompson chose those pictured. Although every effort was put forth by the girls, the team didn ' t quite make the grade. Somehow luck was against our Juniors and although they played well, keen competition from other schools resulted in their down- fall. Our thanks goes to Mrs. Thompson for her expert coaching, inspiring spirit and tireless patience. Also, we would like to commend the team for their valiant attempt and wish them better luck next year. Work without material gain, Is the hardest work of Life. But bear in mind Money loses value after use, The value of knowledge gains. Jim Tretheway, 11A
