BLUE AND WHITE ifnurth jFornt l 2C’s Contribution to Walkerville’s Realm of Sport Senior Soccer: A1 Scorgie, Gord Chambers. Mr. Klinck’s Senior Soccer Team set our sports year off well by reaching the city finals, losing unfortunately to Vocational Rough Riders. Our Soccer team defeated a C.I.L. team two games out of three in exhibition matches. Senior Rugby: Wilson Montrose, Norm Crapper, Max Koval, Ed. Lowther. Our Senior Rugby Team had rather a poor season this year despite lots of fight on the part of the fellows and good coaching under Mr. Allison. They did, however, manage to lick the league¬ leading Vocational Team in their final game. Junior Rugby: Bob Mitchell. Our Junior Rugby Team under the capable coaching of Mr. Bunt played a good brand of football, and were defeat¬ ed in the City Finals by the Kennedy Clippers only after a bitter struggle. Senior Basketball: A1 Scorgie. Mr. Allison had another fighting team but they were doomed to failure. They won some games but not enough to win the championship Walkerville craves. Junior Basketball: Pete Ferlick. Mr. Young’s Junior Team played bas¬ ketball and played well but unfortunate¬ ly they ran into tough opposition. They, too, are out of the running but only af¬ ter a stiff fight. Senior Hockey: Gord Chambers, Howie Giles. ’ Mr. Bunt sent another team to the City Finals. This team played excellent hockey and went under only after giv¬ ing the irresistible Purple Raiders some real competition in a total-goal series.

BLUE AND WHITE and furious; first hand information was brought to the fore by our shining founts of wisdom; our usually silent gjrfs surprised us by expressing opin¬ ions; unusual discoveries were made about our fellow students—when in the midst of all this bedlam rang the bell. Did this stop us ? No! To the immense surprise of the onlookers, we continued -yes, down the hall, in spite of one teacher ' s “Watch your line there, you’re out of step”, until we were recalled from the future of our elocutive aspira¬ tions by “All right, class”. J. HUTCHISON. FLASH! Northern Universities in the United r I States in 1939 came into the limelight I with their goldfish-eating students. W. C. I. goes them one better in 1940. The Biology class in its first year of ex- 1 istence in the school can proudly boast t of one George Balint who expressed his i liking for preserved earthworms. With a broad grin and a watering mouth it George held the worm in position to be it dropped down his gullet—when the bell rang! Cliff Pennock, Bill Paterson, 13C i? j kli ‘‘Oh, yes,” reflected Miss Dickey, aft- 1 er hearing a 5A debate, “No wonder I i was warm at the back of the room.

The circuit’s closed, the current flows, The coil it magnetizes. The bell, it rings—no whistle blows; What! No end to earth’s surprises? Just now Miss Tunks is concentrating On a creature called index; Perhaps a thorough fumigating Woud cure that lousy X! Around the World in Eighty Days, It should be heavenly. But after forty minutes, No, I can’t agree. Now teachers, please don’t punish me. Just laugh, don’t take off marks. But then you wouldn’t punish me, For your bites aren’t as bad as your barks, I hope. MARGARET VAIL, 12A. 12A FORM NEWS Claire Bennett— She’s tall and kinda thin; She can giggle and make you grin. Jim McCubbrey— Here comes Jim with his wobbly gait; He never hurries - but he’s never late. Dorothy Vanstone— She wouldn’t be good if she could, And she couldn’t be good if she would. Virginia Langlois— Her life is like a story-book with a new hero in every chapter. Mary Jane Harvey— The only way she can keep a secret is in circulation. Betty Gray— Good goods in a small package. Ruth Font— When she has nothing else in the even¬ ings, she studies. Marian Seaton— Marian, we are here to say, Will really be someone, some day. Doug. McGrath— He’s always feeling at his best When he can be the constant pest. Herbert Todgham— Has both hands on the wheel, His eye on the road to success. Joyce Whipple— She keeps early hours . . . The wee, small ones. Russel Kinghorn— God bless the man who invented sleep. Mr. Bunt told Betty Gray that a faint heart never won a man, but it did in Betty’s case. Mr. Robb, one of the in¬ spectors, thought Betty a very shy—but delightful and clever—blushing maiden, when he questioned her in the Physics class. All the girls now want to know her technique.
