L. McNaughton Vice President Percy Brydges Secretary Army Ellis Treasurer Mr. A. Fletcher Publicity Ernie Musgrave Norm Crapper - Jack Gubb The boys’ athletic executive is elected by the student body to carry out the extra activities concerning sports. This year’s boys’ athletic executive continued the sale of school crests begun last year. The executive sponsored a few tea-dan- ces after the basketball games and ar¬ ranged for bus transportation for the students so that they would be able to see football and hockey games. The ad¬ dition of a publicity group to the boys athletic proved to be a great asset this year. This group advertised all the games and tried to foster more school spirit in the school. We are sure that this year’s executive has carried out its work proficiently and will continue it fine work for the remainder of the term.

BLUE AND WHITE 9A Looks Ahead It seems that 9A has quite a few pro¬ mising young people in it. Tom’s hockey record assures us that he will be a great hockey star. Roy’s ardour in choir re¬ hearsal presages him to become a great singer. Also Beverly W. has already at this early date shown promise of rival¬ ling Paul Robeson. Kazimer we are sure will bring fame to our midst by the mel¬ odious exquisite sounds we hear produc¬ ed on his ‘“Ethiopian Piano”— mouth organ. Marilyn Johnson undoubtedly will pen her way to fame while our Shirley may sail in matrimonial seas humming Mar¬ ilyn’s lullabies. Did you know that Guy Patton has hobbies galore but that we picture him ranking high in aeronaut¬ ics? George Morrison we see in gown and cap, laden with books hurrying to that next lecture. Jane and Eunice we are sure will find success in the literary world. Don Kilpatrick will be singing merrily while he surveys waste mount¬ ain regions and builds bridges such as we have only dreamed of. Willie O’Neil and Joey Grant will cer¬ tainly make for the wide open spaces. Bob H. aims to get his M.D., but we do not recommend six movies a week. Hel¬ en will prove the perfect hostess serv¬ ing Soble Tea and Coffee. Gladys and Margaret R. we vision excelling at the Olympics. Margaret Smith, our popular representative, will charm her way into someone’s heart ere long, we know. Pat and Norman, those bushy pals, will box their way to utmost joy. Daisy . . Well, Daisies won’t tell, but we believe that she and Sadie, in their quiet way will shine in the Hall of Fame. George Turnbull will shine in journal¬ istic spheres with Betty Thompson run¬ ning him a close race. Eleanor and Pearl, Anne and Louise, our petite mem¬ bers have kept hidden the picture they may seek. Bill Allan and Frank will write the “Now” column we are sure if present actions and words count. War¬ ren and Bob haven’t decided what course to pursue but we wish them luck. David, dark and handsome, should out-star Clark Gable. Doris, Betty and Emily, our “Jeanies with the light-brown hair” we feel certain will put Home Economics to very good use. Good luck to all of them! It Can’t Happen in 9B Don Geddes not flirting with someone. Betty Downie not winking at a certain someone. Stuart Johnson without his dimples. Yvonne Weston not posing. Roy Hutton with any work done. Brock Jones not singing. Enid Greenhalf not working. Lenore Batters not looking angelic. Jean Snyder not talking. Bruce Wilson not wiggling his ears. Day Roberts not teasing Miss Evans. Walter Patterson without his red wig. Don Bennett not looking for trouble. Marie Lavis without a big word. Shirley Gible not being a bad girl. Jack Creed not looking for a new way to put a curl in his hair. Gloria Verway not making eyes. George Mall and Jack Small being sensible. Bill Gillet with the key to his locker here. Ted Waffle being the school Romeo. Gordon Vail not looking silly. Fred Hawkworth not asking personal questions. Joyce Gladstone not trying to wink. Jack: Why is love like an apple pie? John: Some crust and a lot of apple sauce. A lecture is the process by which notes of the professor become the notes of students without passing through the minds of either. An egotist is a man who insists on talking about himself when you want to talk about yourself. Page Fifty-seven

Montrose, R, Morley, L Camlis, N« Crapper SENIOR FOOTBALL Last fall our football team had to fight all the bad breaks that came along. The number of breaks against our team seemed to outnumber the ones they re¬ ceived and thus their morale and dest¬ iny were broken. They had a good, fast back-field; but ineligibility played havoc with it and they lost two reliable performers in Len Camlis and Alastair Barron after the first game. In the first game against Sandwich the boys just couldn’t seem to get going inti with many set-backs, they came out M the short end of a 20—1 score. The second game against Kennedy flippers started out with a spurt, but soon wilted and ended up with another loss of 21—2. Although the score seem¬ ed tremendous it was a bitterly fought druggie with our Tartans fighting to ’■he very last whistle. The Purple Raiders of Assumption ere the next opponents to run up ag¬ ainst our sturdy lads, who gained mom¬ entum in this game and gave a good account of themselves. In this contest they managed to pull up to their op¬ ponents’ goal line, but, their bigger, heavier rivals repelled them with a score of 11—8. Aside from the one-sided score this was their second best game of the year. The Patterson Panthers provided heavy competition for the next game, for they repelled our valiant gridders 10 to 3, after a fierce goal-line stab made by our team. Our boys were on their goal-line. Three times the ball was snap¬ ped back and three times the team was squelched by the heavy Panthers. The next game was the climax of our football season. It was played against the Vocational Rough Riders with the absence of their back-field twins. This fact injected a high spirit in our club which outplayed and outscored the W.O. S.S.A. champions 5—1. This was the only game in which the blue and white warriors seemed to have any breaks and they took advantage of them. (Continued on page 74) Page Fifty-nine
