BLUE AND WHITE Dramatic Club News (Continued from page 12) little Archibald and were not disappoin¬ ted in the least. “Uncle Joe’s Will” was also present¬ ed by the Junior Dramatic Club. There were several very excellent character roles and the acting throughout the performance was good. This play was repeated in March along with the Sen¬ ior Dramatic Club play, “Why Worry”. The latter was a comedy in three acts, under the direction of Miss Robbins. It was the story of a lovable family of nit¬ wits who were under the thumb of a melodramatic mother, Judith Davies, who lived in the past completely, still glorying in her late husband’s Shake¬ spearean triumphs. Her three children, Jack Leighton, Mary Bennett and Eve- ! lyn Awrey, were forced to use the lang¬ uage of the Bard. Little Evelyn Awrey gave a magnificent performance as the “little sister” who is never wanted. Joe Hong played the part of the poet and house-boy. It was Joe’s first play and he stole the show. Andy Boyd was a vac¬ uum-cleaner salesman who became a permanent guest and, before he knew it, he fell in love with the young damsel of the household. Also providing the love interest in the play were Ruth McGuire and Jack Leighton. Ruthie converted Jack into a modern Jitterbug, and in the second act she gave him the first lesson of his six. Oral Botosan, the tough con. nlayed his small role very well, as did Doris Sharkey, the det°sted Aunt Gert¬ rude. The devoted uncle Jerry was play¬ ed bv Ed. Cummings a newcomer in Walkerville this year. The plav conclud¬ ed with three romances well on their wav. Aunt Gertrude satisfied with her rights, and the cop relieved to get out of such a mad household. Pins were awarded to Judith Davies and Joe Hong for the best actress and actor respectively. Judith Davies. ORATORY (Continued from page 13) Special praise goes to our junior boy. Bob Charlton, who won not only the school contest, but also the city contest with his speech on “A Man I Admire— President Roosevelt”. Jim Cherry, the runner-up, spoke on “A Man I Admire— Winston Churchill”. We are all proud of these orators and congratulate them on their excellent work. We hope that next year’s contest¬ ants will do as well and will come out in greater numbers so that perhaps we can find an orator who will win not only in Windsor, but even in Western Ontario. Betty Samson. Active Service List (Continued from page 42) not with us long enough to give us any real sample of his many interesting tal¬ ents. As a teacher, Mr. Bull was one of the best. By adding a touch of drama, he made his lessons interesting. He was a friend to all those students who entered his classroom door. Now he is following in the footsteps of his hero, Alexander the Great. Mr. Bull enlisted in the Essex Scot¬ tish and, shortly after his arrival in Camp Borden, became a lieutenant. Lat¬ er he was sent to Kingston to take a course in signalling, and now he has re¬ turned to Camp Borden. Mr. Bull is a man who is so alive that all who associate with him are uncon¬ sciously rejuvenated and made eager to take the next step forward. I know we all wish the very best of success in life to Mr. Bull. Ruth Fornataro. CADET NEWS (Continued from page 45) and the Signal Corps have been working feverishly to produce a top-flight head¬ quarters company. Our officers have been in training since early fall, and have been termed the smartest perform¬ ing class in the school history. The well known bugle band in their scarlet tun¬ ics, have already proved their worth in the Windsor War-Savings parade. Ev- Page Eighty-one

BLUE AND WHITE erything points to the continued success of the corps. Concerning the 1939 Cadet Corps, we must mention G. McGorman, the O.C., and Norman Crapper, the band¬ master, for it was their splendid work and leadership that united the efforts of all the members into one huge success¬ ful effort. Bill Flint, under ordinary circum¬ stances, would have been O.C. this year. His now, however, a member of the R. C. A. F. He was one of the most valu¬ able men in the corps, and on leaving takes with him the best wishes of its members. Good luck, Bill! Eddie Roemmele now steps into the office of O.C., and Norm Crapper con¬ tinues as bandmaster with his “makes- you-want-to-march” music. To them we extend our congratulations, and express our confidence in their ability. To the O.C. and his officers, the band and the cadets—Best of luck in 1941! — — V. G. AMBULANCE CORPS This section of the Auxiliary Corps has been progressing rapidly under the direction of Mr. Young. Although not very popular at first the squad now is composed of about thirty boys. Besides their regular study in the St. John’s Am¬ bulance Manual, the boys received lect¬ ures from Dr. H. Campbell, noted phys¬ ician of Windsor. Just before our in¬ spection of the whole cadet corps takes place, the auxiliary units, both signal¬ ling and ambulance, will write exams to see if they understand what they have been taking for the last year. Officers of the Ambulance Corps this year are Jack Graham and Bob Batchelor. Jack Graham. Junior Rugby (Continued from page 67) tricky broken-field runner. On defence he played an intelligent game and in¬ tercepted many passes. Page Eighty-two Eddie Roemmele. Eddie is a veteran at the game, although still a junior. From centre-half posts Ed called the signals and proved to be a good captain for the squad. An injured shoulder forced this boy out of action and the team missed him very much. Ed. Brown. As co-captain, Ed Brown played wonderfully at flying wing. Ed. was a good tackier and always hit the line fearlessly. Alternates. Walt Patterson, Don Mitch¬ ell, Bev. Wood, Ed. Sahagian. Jack Gilli¬ land, John Green, Don Wilson, St?n Butcherd, John Bartlet, Dave McGee, Gerry Childerhouse, Tom Hornsby. Con- ratulations, lads, you played many brill¬ iant games. Senior Basketball (Continued from page 69) makes a very strong guard and has a shot that is extremely hard to block. Ed. Duchaines. Ed played a fine game at guard this year. This boy is one of Walkerville’s veteran sportsmen and proved to be an old reliable on the team. Ed. knows the game backwards and is a sure ball-handler. Ernie Martin. Here is a swift, high scor¬ ing forward who will match any high school forward in Windsor. Ernie left school before the schedule had been completed, but he undoubtedly did more than his share for the team. Leonard Camlis. Here is an all around athlete again. This time Len is throw¬ ing a basketball around in fine style. Len left school bfore the season was over, but while here he proved to be an ex¬ cellent guard and an aggressive for¬ ward. Nick Yareo. Nick didn’t have much chance to display his wares this seme¬ ster, but he was always on hand and made a reliable substitute. Nick gave the lads great moral support. Teams need fellows like you, Nick.
