BRIEF ITEMS OF LOCAL INTEREST . . XA We are glad to welcome Ted Hayes back to XA from the world of business. We also extend a welcome to Bill Evanitski, who has come to Tillsonburg from Nova Scotia via Port Hope. ik if IF ik HI! One day while concentrating on History tlooking out of the windowj, I gazed around at my fellow students. I wondered what they would be doing fifteen years from now, say, about 1964 ...... TIME MARCHES ON! John Garnham, the serious student back in 1949. is a travelling salesman, and from what I hear he's doing an excellent job .... Olive Burnett is employed at Brown's Blowers of Bigger, Better, Bubblier Bubble Gum as a tester .... Quite a few of the YA students of '49 have taken upon themselves the strain, the hardship and the torture of being teachers: Irma Fazakas is teaching History in Alaska, while Jean Holman is parlez-ing francais as a French teacher in P.E.I .... In '49 Joyce Hibbert took up Art and for fifteen years she hasn't laid it down Cshe must be tired by this timell .... but someone said that she is beginning to act like a Mad artist -and she was always such a shy, quiet girl too! .... A fascinating sign in one of the downtown stores reads: Do you want to be the Hercules Type, the Gallant Knight, or the Dashing Romeo ?-If so, apply within for instruc- tions. Owned and operated by Roy Ingrahamf' .... If anyone is trying to get in touch with Irene Buskiewicz, please note: she has changed her name to Smith because she was beginning to get confused herself .... Congratulations to Pat Hillis: she has just become a Member of Parliament .... Misses Melba Garnham, Lois Brinn and Julia Fitch Cnot the shampoo familyj are featured singers at the New York Opera House- Time certainly changes everyone! .... Believe it or not, Jack Bell and Jack Fish are in show business g you've probably heard of them as Andy and Pandy and their dog Jack .... But enough of thisg let's get back to History! .... and that is your History assign- ment for next day, says Mr. Hay's gentle voice. THE TATLER Grade XA can't help being outstanding for their cleverness f?J, ambition Q??J, talent and consideration, for our form teacher is none other than Miss Grieve. Gloria Haycock, XA. ADRIFT by Robert Heckadon, XIB Here I was in a small raft, alone and forgotten by the world, in the middle of the Atlantic. It was morning, the sun was slowly rising from its bed with a bright warm feeling. For others it was just another day, but for me it was the beginning of an unforgettable experience. The clouds became tinted with a brilliant light as the sun rose higher into the skyg the water about me sparkled in the bright sunlight. There was no sound, save the sound of the waves as they beat upon the flimsy craft, tossing it to and fro. All that could be seen was sky and water, nothing but blue sky and bluish-green water. Suddenly I noticed the clouds begin to speed up their weary crossing of the sky: the waves in the distance grew bigger and strongerg the sky darkened as the sun disappeared behind a large cloud. Soon I could feel the strong wind against my body. As the waves drew nearer and nearer water began to slop over the edge of the raft. In a matter of minutes the mighty waves had reached my boat. The boat went up higher and sank deeper, and the water splashed onto my body and into my face. Every time the boat went down I was waiting for it to sink, never to rise again. Gradually the waves died down, and the sun poked its face past the cloud only to begin descending the west side of the sky. Hours passed, and slowly the sunlight be- came fainter as the sun started to sink on the western horizon. The clouds became tinted with bright colours which gradually became darker and finally died, leaving behind only the darkness of night and the thousands of stars which would die away the next morning. Where I came from or what the future holds for me can be supplied with but the reader's imagination. 77
