Instead, however, let me recall the incident which was staged outside this school a short time ago when a group of renegades posing as Youth distributed, at the beck of their masters, lying and seditious handbills treasonably conceived to cripple our security, to seduce our loyalty and thus, in due course, to seal the doom of the free- dom won for us in Canada by our forefathers through patience, privation and peril. Fortunate indeed that this revelation of the ma- lignancy of the still painless growth which has been imported into our corpoate body should be brought to our very doors as a warning. Because this particular propaganda was stupid in its patent absurdities and untruths, we should not be de- ceived concerning the real and present threat to our free way of life. The Iron Curtain has been erected with malevolence but not by stupidity, ex- cept by that stupidity of the loyal citizens who declined to see the approaching storm and failed to raise their defence in time. Pt study of the events of the past ten years must impel us to underestimate neither the traitor in our midst nor the enemy abroad, lest the fate of the Baltic States, of Poland and Czecho-Slovakia be ,- '24 --qu, We .

In 1945 l saw the industrious and in- offensive rural families of the lovely Danube Val- ley from Linz to Vienna deprived of all they owned and exiled from the lands of their fathers. Was it they whom I also saw crawling on hands and knees, hunting like swine for edible roots in the open fields of a camp near St. Polten? Do we say that it could not happen here in the beautiful Niagara Peninsula? The responsibility to ensure that it does not lies with you-the boys and girls attending our schools to-day. H seditious pamphlet reflects sedition. To what end that sedition points each one of us must de- cide. I hope that each member of the graduating class, and the undergraduates who perchance will not return, will achieve and cherish happiness and prosperity and will not soon forget the days at Westdale. Friendship and assistance will be theirs here, always. May we all strive together to fulfill and further the purpose of this great School-to learn to live graciously, with industry, intelligence and in- tegrity. Finally, l congratulate the President and mem- bers of The Triune Student Council for their effi- cient conduct of student activities and particu- larly on this occasion, the editor and staff of Le Raconteur. 7 Conhdence . . .

Advmaor Auviasf THE GOLDEN AGE .-,,,- - ..- EDITORIALS lt is the duty and the hard-won privilege of the press to represent the people and their demands. Hs the sole editorializing publication of the stu- dents of Westdale Secondary Schools, le Racon- teur must express the reasonable demands of the student body. The most sincere and reasonable request to reach our ears has been for improve- ment of the assemblies. First of all, let us speak of length. ln the grasp -of the memories of many of us lies a time when assemblies were held every two days-these were, however, only about twenty minutes long: and when the subject came up, the student body expressed its willingness to have a long assembly one day in six in preference to the short ones every other day. Everyone agreed that such an arrangement would be superior to the old one, and the system was adopted. By a simple operation of arithmetic, we find that assemblies would then be one hour long. This is a reasonable length of time: one gets tired of sitting soon after that: and a shorter period does not allow sufficiently for a worthwhile programme. The length of assemblies tseniori' during the first term of this school year was nearly perfect. In our opinion, this ought not to have been cut short. Plssemblies during the fall term featured excel- lent speakers and fine talent from within the school: but most of the guests of the winter term were less capable at public speaking, and partici- pation of school talent was cut down terribly. If the value of assemblies is to raise the cultural level of the students, why are they no longer presented with such fine opportunities to absorb this culture? Of course it would be rude to be specific, but many of our winter term speakers devoted their addresses to the neat indexing of a series of facts easily accessible to those interested. What a con- trast to the words of the earlier term! Indeed, even rocky Mr. Inman remarked to us that one of our fall speakers was the best we had ever heard. Hlthough we are waging a mild verbal attack against the authorities, we would be foolish not to thank them for the improvements they have made so far. It was a fine idea to limit the dura- tion of announcements-some of them were most unduly long. CRaconteur announcements, however, did not share in that vice to any great degree.l Hnd although jokers circulated the rumour that even one's blood count had to be stated if one were to make an announcement, the information required on the forms for announcements was neither too detailed nor valueless. Certainly this reform is one that should be upheld. To return to the original line of thought, may we add that we are not asking for any radical changes in the observance of assembly. We only want what we consider the due of people who have tried not to overstep their privileges-a re- turn to the primary conditions of the fall of 1948, truly the Golden Qge of Westdale's assemblies. -G. C. RETRGSPECTION In Iune many of you will be leaving the halls of Westdale for good, never to return unless to visit the haunts of your teens. Many of you can- not imagine why anyone would wish to return to school even to visit with the teachers that en- dured you for so many years. Find yet, as many of the students who have already left-only a year ago-would tell you, you will often, in the years to come, look back to the days of your high-school career with longing. ' Every season of the year will bring back fond memories of school. The football games at the packed stadiums, and the cheering fans clapping each other on the back as if they themselves had won the game. If you were one of the many staunch supporters of the team you will once again wish to be out there yelling when a hot September day brings' back pictures of a hot and dirty team plodding their way to the goal posts. 1 Basketball games and the dances, the class parties, the canteen, all will return to your mem- ory, along with the not so pleasant thought of exams. But, believe it or not, it will not be the un- pleasant things that you will remember but only the things that are really important, and the things that will always give you happy memories. You who joined in the club activities and played the inter-form games, you will have something that will never leave you and will stand you in good stead the rest of your lives. That is the ability to co-operate with other people in order to achieve a goal. Perhaps it was only some personal thing that you wished to achieve or perhaps it was to win something for the glory of the whole school. Nevertheless it started you doing things in co- operation with others-one of the hardest but most profitable achievements of all. -S. C. ll t-- t 'Z:5'3..h .-- .- ., , ., . .

VL 12 TRIUNE PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE This has been the first year that the students have been given a student council with control over all student activities. Being the first year for the new system, the council has had a difficult task but a great many troubles have been ironed out. The council has been a great success. The Dance and Entertainment committee under the di- rection of Terry Skene, then later under Caroline Souter has produced two highlights, the New Year's Eve Dance and the Prom. Music and Drama under Howard Fairclough and then Rudy Marth has produced some fine shows, culminating in the great success of Charley's Hunt. The Sports and Games Committee under Gor- don Kitchen has produced a fine basketball pro- gram and has handled the basketball games with such success that it has largely overcome a great, unforeseen football deficit. Publication and Publicity under Bill Haycroft produced the first Westdale directory, and through the work of the very industrious school magazine staff, Westdale will have another successful publi- cation. The finances of the various committees have been capably handled by Stan Wootton. High- lighted by the Prom, the school directory and the magazine, Charley's Hunt and the winning of three of four possible city championships, this year has been highly successful. Q president once said that Westdale had little school spiritg l think that that has changed. My association with the fellows and girls in our school activities has proven to me that Westdale has an abundant supply of school spirit and willing hands for any task. This fact may be obscured by the immense size of our school, but one has only to join in our activities to see the reality of our spirit. l take this opportunity to wish all of you suc- cess in your examinations and a happy and well- earned holiday. Yours, until next year, -IOHN MUNRO EDITORIALS confanueay MERCI BEAUCOUP No one who has not worked on le Raconteur can realize how much work there is in putting this magazine together. Fortunately, it was not neces- sary for any one man to do it all. The labours were divided among a number of people, capable and experienced. Perhaps the hardest jobs were sell- ing advertisements and producing a photography section. Students and advisors alike pitched in valiantly to win their objectives, and they achieved success. To our mind a person who has gained a place in the montage opposite has made himself worthy of respect. He has done his job with a minimum of prompting, often with none at all. He has strug- gled against the terrible inertia of eighteen hun- dred souls. This person has tried to get essays from people who never passed in composition and 5, . ,N Xl N pictures of people who never felt fit to be photo- grahed. He has pictured commonlace happenings as stirring adventures or riotous laughs, or trans- lated well-blotted scrawlings into neat double- spaced typing. Due to a few mixups left over from last year, we were not given the go-ahead signal until lanuary. Still, all departments have managed to come through with fine work. Our sincere thanks to everyone responsible for making le Raconteur of '49 a success: to our staff, our advisors, the publi- cations committee of the Triune, Mr. Waddell and several girls handy with a typewriter, the adver- tising staff Cwhose picture appears farther on in the magazinet, and to every one of you who reads this article for buying your yearbook, le Racontgurcg-19. 13 lsf Aa' f I 1 my ,, l Q., ' I L ' N L I f '.

SPRING Spring! The very name is magic. H thousand crystal streams trickle down from the hilltopsg green fields amaze the eyes, the air becomes Warm and fragrant. The forces of warmth and sunshine have conquered the tyrant, Winter, and people everywhere exultantly cast off his shackles. ln February there were rumblings of revolt, but Winter, confident in his established position, could afford to ignore them. ln March the first organized resistance began. Marble games on stiff, frozen ground reflected the spirit of those in league with Spring. By DIHNE TVVEEDLEY Qpril brought further successful uprisings. Wiri- ter was on the defensive. His cold and imperious dictatorship was visibly shaking. Towards the end of this month, almost completely put to rout, he retreated to the hills and guerrilla tactics became his last weak defiance. May brought the final victory. Hlthough there were no captives to be carried home, all of them having been roasted over Old Sol's slow fire, great rejoicing filled the air. ln triumph the victors pa- raded through flower-bedecked streets. The earth relaxed. lt was Spring. THE GLACIER -By GREY Cl-IERTKOFF Chill whorls of hardened snow, Contorted by the blast of shrieking gale, Obscure the scene below. Then, distantly, the sun rose: grey and pale, It faintly lit the glaze. For twenty minutes it would glimmer thereg Such are antarctic days. But in that glow a stillness caught the air, So that the storm was held lmpotent for a moment: then we saw The glacier, saw it weld Great shards of ice upon itself and gnaw Hway the basic rock, Hs solemnly it ground its icy mass, Not heeding sprain nor shock, Through ice-bound vale and bottomless crevasse, Unto a frozen sea . . . The pallid star's last faintness flickered out: The wind's frigidity , Resumed its fierceness-snow was all about. 29 STUDENT OPINION POLL la. DO YOU BELIEVE THRT .QNOTHER WORLD WPIR IS INEVITQBLE? Yes 8096 No 2U 96 lt is only right that this poll of the opinions of youth should start with the question most directly concerning the young people of to-day, VVill there be another World War? Yes, is the opinion of the majority at West- dale: with Communist agression being given as the principal reason for the expected coming con- flict. This opinion was more recently backed by the results of an unofficial school-wide survey which found Westdalites definitely in favour of the North Htlantic Security Pact, which, although it might mean compulsory military training, en- sures adequate protection for our country. lb. IF YOUR PINSWER TO THE PRECEDING QUESTION IS YES, WHERE DO YOU THINK THIS NEXT WORLD WHR WILL STHRT? Europe 567-, Hsia 333 Palestine IU? Pls indicated it is seen that the majority expect the conflict to start in Europe: while one or two students thing that Communists in the Dominion of Canada will be responsible for the next war. 2. FOR WHICH Cl3INf3lDII3iN POLITICFIL PQRTY WOULD YOU VOTE, IF YOU COULD? Progressive Conservative Party 662 Liberal Party 2296 C.C.F. IOM The Progressive Conservative Party scored a decisive victory at Westdale, the great majority naming that party as the one they favoured. But as many students are not familiar with the plat- forms of the various parties and are apt to let the opinions of others influence their beliefs. It is more than probable that if this question were put to the same persons five years from now the re- sults would be Quite different. 3. DO YOU THINK THHT CHNHDH SHOULD REMHIN WITH THE COMMONWEHLTH, IOIN THE UNITED STHTES, OR BREFIK QWHY FROM THE EMPIRE HND BECOME HN INDEPENDENT STHTE? Canada should remain with the Common- wealth 811-, Canada should join the U.S.H. 82 Canada should become an indepen- dent state IOM, Though results of a poll of adult Canadians re- vealed more than 502 of the citizens asked were in favour of severing connections with the Com- monwealth and either joining the U.S.H. or becom- ing an independent state, Westdale 'teen-agers voted overwhelmingly in favour of remaining with the British Empire. 30 I ERN FOX 4. H RECENT ISSUE OF LIFE MHGHZINE STHT- ED THHT PIMERICHN 'TEEN-PIGERS DELIB- ERHTELY TRY TO COMPLICHTE THE SIMPLE, EVERYDHY THINGS IN LIFE, SUCH HS DRESSING HND GREETING THEIR FRIENDS. DO YOU BELIEVE THHT THIS IS TRUE OF CHNPIDIQN 'TEEN-HGERS? No 662 Yes 337: The large number of negative answers polled showed that Westdale 'teen-agers consider them- selves more stable and sensible than the youth of the U.S.P1. Perhaps this is true, but it is also pos- sible that Westdalites are merely showing their national pride. 5. DO YOU THINK THE NEW LOOK IS HERE FOR GOOD? No 572 Yes 43 'za Decision was split on this topic: with many ex- pressing the view that long skirts would stay in fashion until the next period of international ten- sion, such as depression or war, when skirts would become shorter and styles less extravagant. This opinion agrees with the observation that skirts are shorter, styles more severe in times of stress than in times of ease and prosperity. 6. 'WHO IS YOUR FPIVOURITE MQLE VOCH- LIST? Bing Crosby 4596 Frankie Lane 2352, Frank Sinatra 796 Billy Eckstine 776 Vaughn Monroe 6? Tastes and styles in vocalists change from day to day and from year to year. But still, after 20 years, Bing Crosby rates first with the public. Frankie Lane, rising from obscurity two years ago, is still near the top: while Frank Sinatra, Dick Haymes, and Perry Como, idols of a couple of years ago, received comparatively no votes. New- comer, Billy Eckstine, unknown a few months ago, is rapidly making a name for himself in the enter- tainment world. 7. WHHT IS YOUR FHVOURITE TYPE OF CQLIST? Doris Day 28 C26 Dinah Shore 297-Q Io Stafford 171: Peggy' Lee IIWJ Evelyn Knight 57: Unlike tastes in male vocalists, public prefer- ences in female vocalists seem to remain un- changed from year to year, for not one of the five songstresses listed above is an absolute newcomer to the entertainment field. Westdale students' tastes in female vocalists ranged from Lily Pons, coloraturo soprano, to Rosetta Howard, negro jazz singer. I-Wert ff H Q 1 N 7. WHHT IS YOUR FOVOURITE TYPE OF MUSIC? Popular 552 Classical or Semi-classical 292 lazz 1342-J Pls was to be expected, 'teen-agers voted first the popular music they made famous: but a sur- prisingly large number of students expressed a preference for classical music. Q few voted for Hill-billy and Cowboy songs, and a couple of in- dividualists named secular fsicl music as their favourite. 9. WHICH BHND OR ORCHESTRR IS YOUR FHVOURITE? I Glenn Miller 332 Tommy Dorsey 242, Les Brown I 6 'XJ Guy Lombardo 8? Spike Iones 8 'Zz The memory of the late Glenn Miller and his great band is strong in the hearts of Westdale stu- dents: for the immortal Major obtained a clear majority in this poll over all other bands, and it is obvious that his popularity has not diminished in the past few years. 10. WHICH MOTION PICTURE DO YOU CON- SIDER THE BEST PRODUCED IN THE PHST YEHR? ' - l. The Best Years of Our Lives 20? 2. Hamlet 132 3. Sitting Pretty 72, Opinion on which picture was the best produced during the past year was divided: the films named above obtained the top three places, and Iohnny Belinda, The Three Musketeers, and Snake Pit also being frequently mentioned. The liking of 'teen-agers for high-quality enter- tainment was shown by the high standing of Ham- let, which received an Hcademy Hward as the best picture of the year, according to Hollywood. ll. WHO IS YOUR FHVOURITE MHLE MOTION PICTURE FICTOR? 1. Sir Lawrence Olivier 202: 2. Gregory Peck IQCXD 3. Peter Lawford 182 4. Hllan Ladd ICSW Hs shown, the top four positions were closely contested. Sir Lawrence Olivier, winner of the Hcademy Hward for the best performance of the year because of his performance in Hamlet, was also voted first by Westdalites. - Richard Widmark, Humphrey Bogart, and Mont- gomery Clift tied fifth place with each obtaining GCXJ. Van Iohnson and Cornel Wilde, screen idols only two years ago, received only one vote apiece. 12. WHO IS YOUR FHVOURITE FEMHLE PIC- TURE PICTRESS? I. Ingred Bergman 272 2. lane Russell ISV: 3. Elizabeth Taylor IO? 4. Lana Turner SEZ: Voting for a favourite movie actress was scat- tered, with many students expressing no prefer- ences. Taste was shown by those voting for Miss Bergman, for she won an Hcademy Hward for her performance in loan of Plrc: but many did not seem to consider acting ability an essential quality in an actress when choosing their favourites. I3. HOW MHNY YEPIRS DO YOU THINK WILL PHSS BEFORE TELEVISION COMES INTO COMMON USE IN HHMILTON? Hpproximately I0 years 4006 Hpproximately five years 2570 Hpproximately two or three years 202, While a few scattered individuals stated that television would be in common use here before the New Year, and others believed it would not be generally used for at least 25 years: the aver- age Westdalite named IO years, a happy medium, as the time. I4. DO YOU THINK TI-IHT DISCRIMINHTION BETWEEN HCHDEMIC FIND VOCHTIONHL STUDENTS IS SHOWN RT WESTDRLE? No 527, Yes 4870 Yes, there is discrimination, answered the vo- cational students: while academic students voted, almost as a solid body, that there was not: this shows very definitely the feelings of both sections of the school. I5. DO YOU PIPPROVE OF THE CHHNGING OE DELTH TO PI COMPOSITE SCHOOL, LIKE WESTDHLE? Yes 68 'Za No 29 :Xu Unlike the students of Delta and Central Col- legiates, who are definitely opposed to the chang- ing of Delta to a composite school: Westdalites are definitely in favour of the plan. Perhaps Westdale students want the 'teen agers of other parts of the city to enjoy the benefits which a composite school affords: but Delta students are against the remodel- ling, for, as one student of that school put it, We like being small. I6. FROM VVHHT IMPROVEMENT DO YOU THINK OUR SCHOOL WOULD MOST BENE- FIT? l. Improved cafeteria 4271 2. Swimming pool 2373 3. More school spirit and student activities l l 'Xu 4. Sundry 242: Given an opportunity, Westdale students had many suggestions to offer on how our school could be improved: with no one making an effort to be smart, Suggestions on how the cafeteria could be im- proved were many, the most recurring being: brighter, more homelike cafeteria, with covered tables: music with meals: greater variety of food: games in cafeteria: or other entertainment, such as movies, at noon. Failing an improved cafeteria, many students were in favour of the lunch hour being shortened and classes being dismissed earlier in the after- noon. Prominent suggestions under the heading sun- dry were: driving lessons: school band organ- ized along the same line as the Barrie Collegiate Band, with free instruments and class instruction for members: school newspaper: more discipline: less discipline, and Wednesday afternoons off. .31 K X t . 1 V V1 'v ' . 4. 5-D ' .

Quite a few veterans returned to the gridiron war and the team began to have possibilities. Coach Dick Groom cracked the whip and the battle for positions was begun. This battle was short, but not sweet, because the boys put everything they had into it. When the clouds of smoke and dust cleared from the field, the boys who tried and did not make the grade walked to the dressing room, but several other hopeful turn- outs had to be carried from the field. Coach Groom quickly shaped the chosen few into a fast, solid team. The final line-up included a few of the last seasons championship junior squad. Forecasters rated Westdale and Cathedral as the two teams to beat for the finals. This year's student body supported the team better than it has ever done before and probably with a few more breaks the team would have done just a little bet- ter. The way the season did turn out, Westdale still has a team of which it can be proud. The team was razor sharp by Sept. 25, when the first of many night games was about to begin. Westdales first opponent was Tech. The game was fast and furious, as both teams were deter- mined to win. Westdale took a 3-0 lead on a place- ment by Ed. Wright: then Fate took a hand. Cn a HM SYHOISHKO running play, halfback Richie Bethune was hit hard and he was taken out with a broken ankle. Tech came back with some fine blocking and went over for a converted touchdown. Speedy Stone- house kicked for a point and Tech was only 2 points up. Westdale tried desperate forward passes which almost proved successful, but the whistle blew and Westdale lost its first hard fought game 6-4. The following week Westdale met the Galloping Gaels from Cathedral. The highlight of this game was the kicking duel of 50 and 60 yards between our lim Thompson and Cathedrals Fitzgerald. Ca- thedral tallied twice while Westdale scored on a long downfield march. The Green and Gold were on the l0 yard line twice but failed to score and Westdale settled for two points on kicks by Thompson. Plgain a desperate passing attack failed as Westdale dropped its second game l4-9. On Oct. ll the Green and Gold line ripped gap- ing holes in the Delta line as the backfield carried the ball. The team functioned smoothly as Stone- house, Routsky, Patton, Thompson and Headon shook loose for long gains. In the third quarter Ftoutsky passed neatly to Elliot, the left end, who pulled in the ball and raced 20 yards for a touch- down. The game ended in a resounding 39-0 vic- tory for Westdale.

The Green and Gold linemen stopped almost everything that their old rivals.-from Tech had to offer. The lines of both teams were hard to crack as the game went on in the mud and rain. Thompson kicked the first Westdale point, but Pacenti of Tech kicked the equalizer. ln the dying minutes of the game West- dale fumbled a kick in their own zone, and Tech recovered. From here, Pacenti kicked another point for a 2-l victory over Westdale. The next game found Westdale pitting their strength against Central. The passing combination of Boutsky to F. Wright clicked again as Westdale marched down the field. Stonehouse displayed some fast open field running as Westdale went ahead 6-0, but Central came back fighting to tie it up 6-6. However, Westdale took over at this point and Central was never ahead. The highlight of this game was triple threat Steve Fochuk who al- ternated between a halfback and an end position. With Stonehouse and Fochuk running and plung- ing and Boutsky and Wright passing, Westdale downed Central by the score of l9-6. The victory over Central clinched a play-off position for West- dale. In the semi-final Westdale again ran into the powerful Tech squad. The team was at pre-season strength with the return of Richie Bethune. West- dale opened the count when Fred Wright scored via the ground route for the first converted touch- down. Westdale began to move again as Stone- house took off on an 80-yard run, but he was stopped short of the goal. Making no headway against the tough Tech line, Westdale lost pos- session of the ball. The boys from Tech then came up with some more of their blocking to open the way for Pacenti and MacFarlane. The Wentworth Street boys drove down field for their first touch- down. Q Boutsky and Wright combined for a fast passing attack, which resulted in another Westdale touch- down. The boys from F. B, Close became desper- ate and, in the last half, turned on the pressure as Pacenti plowed his way down field. MacFarlane helped by skirting the ends and dodging the W'est- dale tacklers. The Westdale team tried everything in the book, but couldn't stop the inspired Tech squad. Thus, Westdale went down to a 34-13 de- feat which eliminated them from further play. IUNIOIR RUGBY The l948 season started badly with the loss of two l947 regular backfielders through injuries. The lack of rain made the ground unusually hard and dangerous. Pl squad of 38 was chosen from over 200 candidates, and the coaches determinedly as- sembled the l9-18 team. tThis team swept the Green and Gold through the fourth straight season without defeat. They amassed a total of 230 points against 22 in seven games.l The annual exhibition game with Saltfleet H.S. on Sept. 22nd enabled Coaches lnman and Con- nell to adjust the players to their best positions. Pllthough the score was the lowest of the season, such players as Fraser, Bell, Howell, Carson and French looked good on the half-line.

The line showed promise with Yeates at middle, Siddall at inside, while Geard and McKinney at end turned in great dis- plays. Q big crowd watched the boys win the 13-5 contest. The team feverishly prepared for the Cathedral game on Sept. 29th. The Westdale Huskies played consistently to score a 25-0 victory over an aggres- sive foe. Carson and Fraser kicked and passed well. Wilson and Nykorak at inside were outstand- ing while the tackling of McKinney and Smith at end and Mitchell at flying wing was good. Black- borow was selected as Captain, and Howell was lost via appendectomy two nights later. The young giants' next opponents were the big Tech team. They started strongly and scored a converted touch but this roused the Westdalians to snow them under by the score of 37-6. Hlong the line Yeates and Levinson were great, while Wilson, Nykorak, Siddall and Mclntyre shone at inside. Qt end McKinney, Geard and Webb had a good day. The Swan, Bell, Fraser, and Carson half-line was terrific, while two alternates, Zaiacz and jacques, showed great strength. Central Collegiate met us the next Wednesday. They had big linemen but they were outplayed as the whole team scintillated to a 56-O win. Lover- ing at snap played a terrific game while Batchelor and Yeates looked best at middle. Nykorak, Vi- sosky and Mclntyre showed power at inside. Mc- Kinney and Martin tackled well all afternoon. In this game the alternate quarter, Browning, showed great promise. The regular halves were forced to their limits by the display of power put on by Mitchell, Zajacz, jacques and Giglia. The reserve strength started to show in this game. H week's lay-off prepared the boys for the Delta game. They were really on the prowl for this game and laced a big East-end team by a score of 50-O. The team was now juggled into its best positions, and the result was strength three deep in all positions. Hlmost every player could handle three positions and at least two of them well. Mitchell and Webb looked good at flying wing, as Bill Swan was lost through injuries Calder played well to assist Lovering at snap, and later took a turn at quarter to show his worth. Robinson and Geard played well at end, and we lost McKinney for the season early in the game. The inside wings played powerful games against players of their own size, Yeates, Levinson, Batchelor and Francis played a lot of middle wing. lt was in this game that quarter Browning called on Iigger Carson to kick a sensational 45 yard placement that travelled nearly sixty yards and split the posts neatly. Fraser's kicking looked the best of the season, and a new half, Blake, started to roll. This compara- tively easy game and the glowing press reports were to prove almost disastrous in the semi-finals. ln the semi-finals Cathedral edged Delta 7-6 and Westdale finally beat a dogged Tech team 16-5 in the mud. The Tech boys battled the Westdale Huskies for the first third of the game, and too much tension among the defending champions 34 -- fr -. .U HT, ,.,.,,. .,i-Q ,vr.,. .,,,x -rp . .- A-' -,tg reached a peak at the half. However, their shot of orange juice, etc., at the rest period sent them out to a bruising finish in a drizzling rain, and they had made the finals for 1948. The stars were few in this contest but Nykorak had his best game of many good ones. Batchelor was the best middle on the field. Carson, Bell, and Giglia carried the load along the half-line. The tackling brigade was poor with only Mitchell at his best. This game showed the way a team falls for glowing publicity, and it was a good thing they had a rest period at half- time for so many things can be adjusted at this time. The finals looked awfully close and reports of the coaching given Cathedral poured in. Determi- nation was the word for the preparation, but after tapering the team off, bad weather postponed the game over the week-end. H brief loosening-up and a signal check on Monday prepared them for the final against Cathedral. Cathedrals blocking, plunging, and passing were good for the early part of the game: however, they weakened under a bruising attack. Fit the start of the 2nd half the regular flying wing, Bill Swan, returned to play his first game in weeks and the first play was a 45- yard pass completed, Cam Fraser to Swan. Other passes soon had the Cathedral defence split wide open. Short end plays, cut-backs, plunges, and fakes tore their team to shreds as the Westdale Huskies snowed Cathedral under 33-6. ln this game substitute strength paid off with Blake and Zajacz making long gains. Bell went for yards re- peatedly, Fraser's kicking was superb, Carson dagged a host of tackling for yards, and Frer1ch's speed proved to advantage. Blackborow rapped for long gains through the centre. Batchelor and Lev- inson at middle scintillated, and Nykorak, Siddall, and Wilson hurried all plays. Lovering enjoyed every minute of it, and Calder played his part at snap. It was in the final that Robinson, once an inside then a middle, shone at end. Prospects for 1949 look fair, Nykorak, Sanderson, French, Batchelor, Klodt, Blankstein, Geard, Mar- tin, Hathaway, Browning, and Howell have to pass their year but a nucleus is left for l949. Twenty- two players go Senior and we wish them the best for 1949. BHSKETBHLL Westdale has displayed many powerful basket- ball teams in both junior and senior ranks for quite a few years, but this year seems to have been the best. During the past six years, Westdale's junior and senior teams have been finalists six times. While the seniors have won three of six cham- pionships, the juniors have done one better by winning four of the six championship games. These are records of which Westdale can be proud. This year Westdale topped all previous seasons as the junior and senior teams won both inter- scholastic titles. Under the able coaching of Mr. State and Mr. Ferguson the teams started to roll and they were never headed. , JUNIOR BHSKETBHLL CHAMPIONS Back row, from left: Bill Swan, Harry Lovering, Ray Yates, Dave Lowden, Tom Lowden, Guy French.

IUNIOR BHSKETBHLL One of the toughest tasks this season fell to Mr. Ferguson, the new junior coach. Pl newcomer to Westdale, Mr. Ferguson had to teach his prospec- tive players the fundamentals of the game until the time came to pick the team. The boys soon mastered the fundamentals of the game and, after an intense period of practising, the team was chosen. The season started very slowly as some of the players had to overcome a case of stage fright. The team didn't look very impressive as it dropped its first few exhibition games. Then Mr. Ferguson rearranged his line-ups to strengthen the weak spots and soon the team began to play in earnest. The schools' junior teams were closely matched as many close games were witnessed. During the league schedule, the Westdale luniors dropped two games, both to Delta. They won their last seven league games and they downed Tech for the league leadership. ln the finals, the juniors turned back Delta in two straight games as they won the series and the championship.

SENIOR BHSKETBHLL Por the second year in a row, 'Vlfestdale seniors are ulnfersoholastic Basketball Champions. ln regu- .ar .eague competition, the seniors have been un- defeated for the past two years. The season opened in early December with sev- era. exhibition games against strong outof-town 36 teams. These games were very helpful as they aided Mr. State to consolidate the team. Plnother feature the boys enjoyed C'?l this year was morn- ing practices. The finals pitted the defending champions of Westdale against Commerce. The Challengers pushed the Dawn Patrol from the start and the first game ended in a tie, 47-47. ln ten minutes of over- time, Westdale forged ahead to win. 61-55. ln the second game. Gord Kitchen led a terrific attack as Westdale led all the way to a 73-52 victory. ln the Ontario High School Champions' tourna- ment, Mr. State matched his squad against a powerful Niagara Falls Collegiate team. With the score tied 41-41 at the three minute mark, the Westdale team outfought the opposition for a 49-43 victory. ln Toronto, the Dawn Patrol was elimi- nated by a strong squad from Sudbury Tech. ln the last four minutes Westdale scored 16 points, but this was not enough to win as they were de- feated 48-43.

He will probably re- turn for another season next year. Bruce Baillie-tguardi. Bruce was the work-horse of the team. His specialty was breaking up the oppositions' attacks and starting offensive plays for his team. He also did an outstanding job play- ing the pivot position. Ritchie Bethune-tforwardi.

He could shoot all types of shots from anywhere with either his left or right hand. This is his last year at Westdale. Clarence Red Harrison tguardi.

Playing the pivot spot Fred scored many baskets with his oneshand shot from the key way. it RIFLE TERM .L 37 Tom Woodhouse-Ccentrel. Having graduated from the Tuxis team, Tom played his first season of senior ball this year. He played a very steady centre position where his good ball handling en- abled him to set up many baskets. Tom also pos- sessed a good one-hand shot which he put to good use many times. RIFLE TEHM Westdale's Plrmy Cadet rifle team has forged up' ward to the top in the last four years, under the coaching of Captain Herbert lnman. ln l947 we were third in Canada: in 1948 Westdale won the Canadian Championship with a twelve-man team average of 983396. This year, twenty-four graduating members had to be replaced. The younger boys of the school filled this breach, and the season was ended with a percentage of 98.25, almost as good as was the winning average. The team has hopes of holding the B.S.Q. shield, emblematic of the Canadian Championship. ln the l948 shoot, where Westdale's first team placed first with 933311, the local Sea Cadets iR.C.S.C.C. Lionl held twelfth position, Westdale Thirds scored twenty-third, and Central shot their way to twenty-eighth position, The best shot in the school was William Ray- ,ua , , K! -i . ' ,t. X X ,J - Q.

These fellows are closely followed by Steve Fochuk, Gordon Holmes, Robert Gilliland, William Raycroft, Frank Rouse, Warren Cooke, Donald Lockhart, Donald Mclntosh, Iohn Moule, Iohn Paro and Ronald Potter. Trials for the l95O team will be offered in May and November. From these will be picked a basic team of about six dozen sharpshooters.

Ht this meeting the election of new officers took place: Mavis Levine, Presi- dent: Ioan Waddell, Vice-persidentg Gwen Gil- mour, Secretary-treasurer. Some of the articles in the constitution were amended on the vote of the members present. Mr. State was approached to fill the vacant place of teacher-director of the club, and he willingly consented. He is assisted by Mr. Cowan and Mr. Devittg these gentlemen directed amusing one-act plays in February. Mr. State, with the co-operation of the choirs and orchestra, directed the play, When the Chimes Rang, for the Christmas con- certs. The delightful lighting effects were ar- ranged by Mr. Turner, and the setting of the stage was ably executed by Mr. Partridge and his stage crew. In lanuary, casting took place for the school play Charley's Hunt. The successful young ac- tors and actresses were Lenore Waddell, Sybil Lavine, loan Waddell, Hvril Eaulknor, Lois Diehl, Don Lockhart, Don Goodale, Tony Butler, lohn Kil- gore, Clarence Wilson, David Beasley, and David Wiles. Pauline Hooton was put in charge of the make-up crew, and Barbara Hooton was named prompter. 1 We should like to thank the Woodworking and Hrt departments in the school for their able as- sistance in the production of the playg the Home Outfitting Co., Ltd., for supplying the furniture, Malabar's for supplying the costumes, and Miss Hunter of the school for making the aunt's dress. We hope next year's Dramatic Society will have as much enjoyment as we have had this year. THE WESTDHLE ORCHESTRA Hgain this year the Westdale School Orchestra under the guidance of our conductor and arranger, Mr. Brydon Roberts, has been carrying on its tra- ditional role in our school. Throughout the whole year we have been working on a weekly sched- ule, breaking up the orchestra for sectional prac- tice. Qll this has been carried on during school hours. Hlso, once a week, if the necessary ar- rangements could be made, we have had an eve- ning practice. This proved very effective. Besides giving its members excellent musical training, the orchestra has brightened up Westdale's auditorium periods considerably, and has been a great suc- cess at school plays, talent night, and especially commencement night. The orchestra has probably not been considered by some of the students on such a popular level as Y 1 . , ,I .Pr , , 'quill' Tuff- .A -nf ' IOYCE LOUNSBURY some of Westdale's interscholastic organizations are. The explanation for this is quite simple. Stu- dents of Westdale are accustomed to listening tc music played by first class, professional organi- zations, and even some of these are criticized. Therefore they decline to consider anything short of such orchestras as worthwhile listening. One must not forget that it takes many years of con- sistent, hard work to become proficient in playing a musical instrument. So it must be admitted that credit is deserved by a group of amateurs who can produce four part harmony and make it sound pleasing. Fllso, one must remember that the Orchestra has, through the past years, helped to produce many fine musicians such as George Scroggie, Tommy Waller, Keith Gerard and Gretchen Liebmann. WESTDHLE SENIOR GIRLS' CHOIR Pifier an absence from performances last year, the Senior Girls' Choir returned in September with high hopes and enthusiasm for the season of 1948-9. We elected our executive for the year at the very beginning, and it has been functioning effectively since then. Hs yet we have had no social entertainment, but we hope to have some in the not-too-distant future. We have given many performances this year, including those at Commencement, lunior Pludi- torium, Senior Huditoriurn, the Christmas Concert, and Westdale Civic Night. Two radio perform- ances were given, one from the school for Educa- tion Week, the other from Philpott Tabernacle dur- ing the Christmas holidays. We also sang at the Masonic Hall, Westdale United Church, Central United Church, and the Lions Club. Our plans for future engagements include a radio broacast from Philpott Tabernacle on Easter Sunday, and our variety show. This year we also made a start towards acquir- ing a complete uniform for each girl in the choir. Pilready purchased are short-sleeved white blouses for each member. We hope to complement the uniform shortly with skirts and jackets. We all appreciate Mr. Damude's capable leader- ship and untiring energy in conducting us. Miss Kerr, our choir mother this past year, has given freely of her time whenever help was needed. Ioan Bowling, our pianist, has played for all our accompanied numbers during the year, and is not only efficient but also reliable. We shall all look back on this year as being one of the most active and pleasant years of the choir. WESTDHLE CHMERH CLUB In this big school of ours, a club has again been organized for those interested in photography. It 41 THE DRHMHTIC CLUB fCHHRLEY'S HUNTS. UNCLES, HND STI-IND-INSI was formed for the benefit of both learners and experts. The club has Mr. Ball as supervisor, Larry Paikin as President, and Lee Monaco as Secretary-treasurer. Meetings have been held on Monday and Wednesday afternoons at 4 p.m. in the school dark room, since our first gathering on the 22nd of November. We were invited to attend the annual Christmas party of the Hamilton Cam- era Club, which was held in the Hrt Gallery on Monday, December 13. Besides this social eve- ning, there was an instructional meeting on Mon- day, lanuary 3rd, also at the Hrt Gallery. Much time and effort was spent on a successful venture of the club-the taking of pictures at the Prom. This and the many other activities have proved the meeting to be both interesting and instructive. BHDMINTON CLUB Membership in the Badminton Club was highly exclusive this year-each member was required to provide for himself two legs tfor standing and run- ning purposesl, one hand with fingers, plus a racquet and a bird twith at least one featherl. ln spite of these restrictions, vast crowds have turned out, and some very promising badminton stars have been noted. Qt the first meeting, a committee was duly elect- ed, consisting of: Betty Moffat, President: and Eleanor Waddell and Bob Thompson, Vice-presi- denis. Promptly at 4 p.m. on Tuesdays and Fri- days, and at 5 p.m. on Wednesdays, the birds be- gan to fly. 42 ln Ianuary, the doubles toumament was held. There were more than a hundred entries. The winners were: Ladies' Doubles, Marilyn Gorrie and Marion Gibby Men's Doubles, Don Lockart and Doug Nelson: Mixed Doubles, loan Water- land and Sam Morris. Our thanks to Miss Scully, who, possessed of previous badminton experience, has been in charge of the club and has been kept busy in- structing the members. I. S. C. F. The Westdale Inter-School Christian Fellowship is continuing its good work by having another suc- cessful year. The group meets in Room 309, Mon- days, at 12.30 p.m. We average 45-50 students at each meeting. This year we have been following a series of topics. We have had speakers from out of town, local ministers and business men. St. Peter's Church was the scene of a very picturesque and harmonious candle-light service. In the summer, many students make their way north- Pioneer Camp. The door of Room 309 is open to you every Monday noon, with a friendly atmosphere await- ing you. Our aim is to have Christian Fellowship with all practising Christians and to show other students the need for God in their personal lives. -V-q-.----.un -t , 'RQ' 1.. r N . , THE CHESS CLUB The Chess Club is composed of seven to ten active members this year, under the guidance of Mr. Cooper. H few more can be called upon for tournament games. Hmong the active members, the championship is shuffling among Norm Ieppe- son, Paul Ieppeson, our Secretary-treasurer, Don Goodale, and a newcomer from Toronto, Peter Bolton. There are a few other notables, such as Don Nixon, Gwenn Segal, lerry Urquhart, and Ken Connor. Last year, at Tech, Westdale's chess team cap- tured the Hamilton Inter-scholastic Chess Cham- pionship. Between the time of this writing and the publication of le Ranconteur, we are hoping to have another tournament. .lt is the view of several of our members that some form of official recognition should be given to a tournament chess team that wins a champion- ship. Some of them would like to see school let- ters awarded to the team. But you can expect the Westdale Chess Club to pull in more than one championship-though these people believe that interest may drop off entirely without suitable re- -wards. THE I UNIOR RED CROSS This year the Red Cross looked after the sale of refreshments at the Sadie Hawkins' Dance. Crip- pled children in England and Europe were helped by the proceeds. The members organized senior and junior assemblies, graced by the presence of Miss Naden, and Miss Crozier, Director of the lun- ior Red Cross. Ioan Bowling favoured the seniors with a piano solo and Miss Winnifred Cater sang for the juniors. From February 21 to February 28, we spon- sored a membership drive and reorganization pro- gramme. H boy and girl, whose names had been sent to us, were each outfitted with a full set of clothes. Pl candy sale was planned for the school play, and cokes were sold at play-off basketball games. Plccording to rumour, a lunior Red Cross for boys may be organized in the school. We wish it all possible success. Many thanks to Miss Fitzpatrick, Miss Nora Dixon, and Miss Dales, for their valued assitance. Our officers for the year are Helen Cater, Presi- dent: Peggy Hunter, Secretaryg and Elizabeth Cox. loan Bowling, Winnifred Hlton, Nancy Patterson, Vicki Dekur, and Eileen Featherstone. WESTDHLE TEENS' CHNTEEN Last lune, as soon as exams were over, the corn- mittees of the Westdale Teens' Canteen began planning a huge conference of delegates repre- senting Canteens and Teen Towns throughout the entire province. Meetings were held throughout the summer with a hard-working committee under a live wire executive-composed of President Bob Fitzhenry, Vice-president Pete Mclntyre, Treasurer Betty Hxelson, and Secretary Hrlene Raycroft-lay- ing the groundwork for the biggest such conference ever attempted in teen-age circles. The entire group was advised on its plans by Hrt and Betty lerome of the Westdale Community Council. Invitations had already been distributed when school opened in September.

Qfter much worry, the prem- ises of McNeil Memorial Church were donated for meetings on Saturday and Sunday afternoon, and Convocation Hall at McMaster University for Sunday morning. The ladies of the church pitched in and served two wonderful meals, and they de- serve a great deal of praise. The course of the con- ference was marked by such noted people as Chancellor Gilmour of McMaster, Reverend Raw- son, Frank Eilchok, Frank Gnup and Dick Groom. The delegates met the Wildcat and Hllouette foot- ball teams, and were banquetted at the Cfficers' Mess of the Hrgyle and Sutherland Highlanders. This conference was the highlight of a very suc- cessful year, in which the name of Westdale's Teen' Canteen came to be known and respected throughout the province. Early in lanuary, elections were held with the following results: President, Rrlene Raycroftp Vice- president, Tom Lowdenp Treasurer, Betty Hxelsonp Secretary, Barbara Hxelsong and Membership Sec- retary, Bengie Ellis. CLUB NEW YORKER Plnother Easter has come and gone, leaving be- hind countless memories of a New York tour. How- ever these memories are not lost, thanks to an or- ganization known as the Club New Yorker. lt is now beginning its third year of activities under the capable guidance of Sue Carnahan, a former student of Central, and it shows great promise of being better than ever.

Shop The minute that exams were over last lune, all Club New Yorkers threw aside their books and rushed feverishly down to Mr. Houghton's estate, where a combination wiener roast and picnic was in progress. They came in droves, via bicycle, car, and bus, and stayed until the last bus left for Hamilton. The cows and chickens had a night out while we took over their barn-all dolled up for the occasion-as a dance hall. Earlier in the eve- ning there was a baseball game, and later on, great tales of New York were exchanged over cokes and hot-dogs around the huge bonfire, or in the apple orchard. On December 27th, the annual Club New Yorker formal was held at the Brant lnn, with Paul Page supplying the music. The dance was a huge suc- cess, and proceeds were used to help a few more students enjoy the wonders of New York. OLD GIRLS Girls, this is your alumnae association! We have good times together with our friends of high school days and we help others through welfare work. This year, with Catharine Holland as our presi- dent, we have again had the graduation dance, following the Commencement exercises. Pit Com- mencement, Eleanor Davis was presented with the Westdale Old Girls' prize for all-round activities. Merit awards went to Esther Saisko, Ruth Bethley and lean Culbert. We had a wonderful Christmas party at the Girls' Home with Santa Claus, and gifts for all the children: we also prepared and delivered three family hampers. Our mothers and friends were not left out. We had a fashion show, with fashions from before grandma's time to the present day, there was also a Valentine Tea at the home of Mrs. H. O. Mc- Hndrew. The highlight of our season is always the Ht Home. This year was our fifteenth annual, and a big success. We had our annual bridge also, a very nice social event. lf you are in the graduating class, or have had two years at Westdale School, and would like to join your Westdale Old Girls' Flssociation, contact a member of the Hssociation.

'LD Q ae 44 --e 1 u ' J lx Y 46 P ' F GIRLS' SPCRTS RUTH GHRDNER VOLLEYBHLL Volleyball is one of the most popular sports for girls in the school because a large number are required to participate. Early October saw the first exciting game get off to a roaring start. Thanks to the efficient cooperation of Miss Hart and Miss Gilchrist, games were played at noon according to the schedule for the inter-form battles. Often the girls nearly raised the roof with their shouts and screams, indicating vividly the thrilling ex- citement. The junior championship games were fast, furi- ous feuds with 9 victorious over 9, lO over 10 and similarly ll over ll. Tricky play was evident through these nip and tuck games. But the thriller of the season was the senior final between 13 D-E and 12 F. The thirteens were the .favoured group, but the others, through hard plug- r,,t if tl, X ging, teamwork, and all-round good play, man- aged to emerge victorious in a close, exciting game. Ht first it seemed as though the thirteens had the edge, but the twelves came through with some spectacular playing in the last game to end the feud. DIQNE EDIE Immediately after the Christmas holidays, the Qll-Star teams, chosen prior to exams, started rigid practice schedules. The girls realized that only hard plugging would bring any championships. Westdale entered five ablycoached teams into the volleyball tournament at Commerce. ln the grade nine games, Westdale's squad took on the other teams in fine style to win the championship. Qlso bringing fame to Westdale was the Grade lO brigade, which was so efficient that the title was a cinch to win. H11 three of their games were very one-sided affairs. Hearty congratulations are due to our junior teams for their wonderful efforts. The eleventh and twelfth grade teams met with both hard luck and stiff competition at once to be defeated in very close thrilling games. Hgain the thriller was the senior championship game be- tween Westdale and Central. lt was a toughie for us to lose, but Central seemed to have the edge all along. Still the Westdale squad fought valiantly, especially in the dying minutes of the classic, when both teams mustered a breath-taking com- bination of luck and skill.

BHSKETBRLL Coaches and Referees started the basketball activities for the girls. Regularly held at 4 o'clock several days a week, this club provided an effi- cient way to train girls to play, coach and referee properly. lunior and Senior teams were chosen from the ranks of Coaches and Referees to play Normal and Loretta teams. Pit Loretta the Iuniors fought hard to eke out a win but the Seniors were not quite so lucky. lllt Westdale the Iuniors were again the victors but the Normal Seniors were too much for our Westdale squad, with such ex-Westdale players as Marg. Verrall and Violet Reid. Playing Normal in Zion Church Gym, the older, more ex- perienced girls appeared at their best and took both titles, although only by one point each. lnterform clashes started after Christmas and 5 , 1 QA I I I 'Yrii'.:fi3EnK.4i.fg.:'-.Ian-...-1.1 . soon they became well-organized fun for all. There were tight tussles especially in the upper forms and many a girl limped mournfully off the floor to 'crab' about the 'awful' referee or the 'mean' guard. Plll in all, the games were clean, furious fights. The senior games were played first with l2B and l3DE retaining top positions. The l2B team played brilliantly all through the season, never being de- feated, but in the final tussle team-play seemed lacking and a hard-fighting team beat them. It was a tough game to lose, but it was anybocty's game -especially in the final quarter. The thirteens played their best and Well deserved their victory. Hll-star basketball teams tq.v.l were chosen be- fore the Easter exams and started immediately after the exams to practise for the Hll-star play-offs, held at Comerce on Hpril 7th, llth, and l2th. It fContinued on page 86l 49 vp wg' gr. .- SOCIAL DONNH DILLON- Hlthough we all know the main purpose of school is education, there is a social side: and in case you've forgotten, here is a slight refresher. This year as ever, November rolled around right on schedule, and with it came the annual Big- Chance-For-The-Girls-the Sadie Hawkins. How- ever, to keep up with the times it wore the guise of a Shmoo Hop . From the first introduction of it by Stan Shmootton, to the end of the dance itself, it was the usual great success. The dancers came in Dogpatch garb, and showed both courage and originality. Both gyms were used, the Boys' Gmy being decorated with a white picket fence at one end, on which the Dogpatchers could carve their X's-or signatures if they went to Westdale. Pt large crowd made this dance enjoyable. Then, on November l2, came Graduationp and this brought our graduates-yes, some of us do succeed-back to Westdale. They were given a banquet by the Student's Council, and after the Commencement exercises, a dance with music and refreshments supplied by the Westdale Old Girls' Society. To celebrate completion of exams, and the be- ginning of the Christmas Holidays, a Holly Hop was held, and decorations were kept in the festive vein. H large Christmas tree, complete with snow and icicles, was placed at a slight angle in the centre of the gymg while a fireplace stood waiting for Santa Revy. Next to the Prom, the New Year's is the most anticipated dance. By now it is traditional, and few people realize that the first New Year's Eve dance at Westdale was held only four years ago. Each year it gets better and better, and this year's topped them all. The music was terrific, featuring Iohnny Fen- wick from Toronto, who played the type of pieces you like to hear on that great eve. The Boys' Gym was hardly recognizable with a canopy of multi- coloured crepe paper which lowered the ceiling, clusters of balloons caught amongst the papers, and silver bells checking the basketball boards. By twelve o'clock everyone was in fine form, and with the help of horns, balloons and whistles, the New Year was welcomed in style. The strains of Huld Lang Syne rocked the roof, and after the ex- citement had waned, the couples retired to the other gym where refreshments were served. The dancing continued on into the morning. ,Now here's to midnight-1949. PROM With the arrival of the annual Prom in February, HUGH PQTTON placing bets on the side, others were wisely buy' ing tickets to the dance. The question was an- swered. On the night of the Prom a waterfall spar- kled in one of the corners. This added the finish- ing touches to the decorations. The large turnout, coupled with music by Darkie Wicken, made the dance a success. HPRIL FOOLS HOP Ht the conclusion of the brainebusting Easter exams, the girls were given their second big chance of the year, and again the boys were pur- sued. The exhausting ordeal of the exams weak- ened their resistance, and as a result a large crowd of swooning females and their prospective dates attended the dance. The girls were flushed with their victoryp and the boys were equally overjoyed-because it was to be the last time this year they would be sub' dued by Westdale's overbearing females. On the whole, this dance was a huge success, and even the boys enjoyed themselves after all.

T . l t'9-if t I I HAMLET 0N THE SCREEN Hamlet, Princenflf Denmark, greatest of roles, the part that every actor longs to play, has been brought to a new medium, the screen. Pllthough this play would be great even if performed on a bare stage, yet the magnificent settings, allowed by the scope of the movie camera, gave an added thrill to the lines of the master playwright. Qt my first glimpse of the great, gray castle looming through the mist, I was transported to another land and an earlier century, from whence I did not return till the lights came up and I found myself back in the crowded theatre. If I live to be a hundred, I shall never forget that graceful, black-clad figure with the pale, haunted face, who dominated the scenes in the gloomy, spacious halls of Elsinore. His stirring beautiful voice, and his splendid interpretation of the speeches, marked Sir Laurence Olivier as a truly great Hamlet. , Hnother picture I will always remember is that of the fair, beautiful Ophelia. The only scene in the play which moved me to tears was that in which Hamlet berated Ophelia so cruelly to prove his madness to the King and Polonius, hidden be- -By QVHIL FQULKNOR. hind the arras. When Hamlet tiptoed back to where Ophelia lay sobbing on the steps where he had so brutally thrown her, and tenderly kissed a lock of her hair, I wept, realizing the pathos of the scene. Even the death of Hamlet did not move me so deeply, for that scene was exciting rather than pathetic. I felt that all the characters in the play were per- fectly cast. The queen gained my especial admir- ation, in the closet scene, and at the end of the play, for, as she drank the poison, she read into the scene, by look and gesture, the impression that she knew the wine was poisoned, and sacri- ficed herself for her son. The actor who played the part of the king did so with amazing skill. It seemed to me that he pat- terned his performance on the line: That one may smile, and smile, and be a villain. It was his smooth, evil smile that expressed, more than any- thing else, his interpretation of the character he was playing. Polonius, Laertes, and Horatio were all perfect types of their parts. In fact, everyone and every- thing in the production seemed like the facets of a perfect jewel. EVENTIDE -By MIRIHM SNIDERMHN Hs I sit at my study table, Pencil in hand, prepared to write, The silence of the house engulfs and surround me, Find the turbulence of the day fades into obscurity. It's strange how pensive one becomes, in that hour When the brain, dulled by weariness, Is ready to pick up any thread of thought Hnd trace it to its uttermost limits. For, as I sit here listening to the noisome wind Hurling the rain-drops against my window-pane, My mind becomes engrossed in that wind Hnd wonders from whence it came. Perhaps it came from another world, and uncharted planet- Spinning its way through eternity, Or perhaps from a far-distant sea, bounded by strange lands, Hnd sailed by strange peoples. Oh, if only my wind could tell me its secrets, Plnd allow me to partake in its knowledge: Then would I become very wise. But in reality, would I be Wiser? Some may say yes, others no:- But who can tell? For the secrets of the wind shall remain the Wind's alone-r Forever .... 52 'Q , 'aft--' CIIARLEY'S AUDIT On Friday and Saturday evening, Qpril the eighth and ninth, the annual Westdale School Play was presented in the Pluditorium, where an appreciative audience received it enthusiastically, Hmong other things, they liked references to local towns and the substitution of some modern ex- pressions. The play, Charley's Hunt, dealt with difficul- ties of two young students, Iack Chesney, played by Don Goodale, and Charley Wykeham, played by Tony Butler, in arranging to entertain their pretty young ladies under the chaperonage of CharIey's aunt, newly arrived from Brazil. But complications arise when Charley's aunt does not arrive, so their friend, Lord Fancourt Babberly, finds himself unexpectedly cast in that role and pursued by two elderly gentlemen who covet Donna Lucia d'Fllvedorez' millions. Finally 'Charley's beautiful REHL aunt turns up, much un- like the old bag portrayed by Babbsy but in the end everything straightens out and the curtain closes on four impending marriages. The young actresses who made the play delight- ful included Lenore Waddell, as Kitty: Sybil La- Vine, as Hmyy Ioan Waddell, as Donna Lucia: A MIN STREL'S SUNG -By GHRY CHERTKOFF H minstrel's song has pow'rs to bring Contentment to a troubled king. Hnd then again, a minstrel's lyre Can make men overflow With ire, Till rage sets cannons thundering. Wheree'er I go, the people cling Hbout meg for my Visiting Lends one joy of which they'll not tire, H minstrel's song. They laugh at ditties that I fling To them sometimes. Yet tear-drops sting Their eyes when ballads tell of high'r Emotions. Could I but inspire Their dreams, 'twere cause enough to sing H minstrel's song. Hvril Faulkner, as Fla, and Pauline Hooton, as Mr. Spettigue's jaunty maid, while the male parts were most capably handled by Clarence Wilson, as Mr. Spettigueg Iohn Kilgour, as Sir Francis Chesneyp Dave Beasley, as Brasset, the butler, and Dave Wiles, as Lord Fancourt Babberly's man Friday. Don Lockhart, of course, made the audience scream as Charley's Fiunt g and while the bou- quets are being handed out, one musn't forget Mr. H1 State, director of the play, who spent hours of his time and gallons of his imagination. Nor should the technical branch of the production be over- looked: Mr. Partridge assembled a competent force of stage-hands, Bengie Ellis was a dynamo in the properties department, and Clarence Wilson was a driving force in the scenery painting. Final polish was added to the two evenings of mirth by Mr. Roberts, conducting the orchestra in his own ar- rangement of several hits from the current Broad- way musical version of this play. We can now appreciate the time and energy which Mr. State and his group of actors and act- resses put into the production of this play. Qnd, if we may quote a reliable source, We don't have to take a back seat to anybody.

WEST TORONTO CANADA if 4 ' Am 2, TRA SEER, PLEASE lt' -By DON GOODRLE My friend Sweeney once had occasion to ask me, What makes you leer like that? Did you just find an empty box of crackerjack that someone had forgotten to take the prize out of? Don't be a dope, Sweeney, I told him, l'm not leeringg this is just my gleam l'm practising. WeIl, it still looks like a leer to me. Rnd you look like a slightly bilious Cheshire cat! Now that's just the trouble with you, Sweeney, I jumped on him. You don't care for people, or try to cultivate them. That's Why you're bored all the time. Rnd you don't like books or poetry or anything because you don't give two hoots for the people they're written about. You've got to meet them, and make them like you--that's what the gleam's for! Then you'd learn to interpret the vast human comedy that's written in their faces. . I still think it's a leer, commented Sweeney tartly. Sweeney has no feeling. Rnd yet if hegonly knew, if he only knew. I think ot all the places where I make my study of people, by far the best is on the bus. Since the time of travelling is lost anyway, I figure I might as Well look at the people around meg I fancy that there I can tell exactly what these people are like, whether they're flighty, cunning, philosophical, morbid, or just plain henpecked. Coming home on the bus only to-day, I gathered enough material for three full-length movies, a novel, six plays, and a long epic poem, entitled Idylls of the Hamilton Street Railway. Some day when I'm not too busy, l'm going to write them too, but that's beside the point. Naturally, like every connoisseur, I develop my specialties, though there may be no particular rea- son for them. Early I ruled out of my observations people around my own age, either because I feared I might see myself a little too closely in them or else simply because they tend to be too self-conscious to putyon a good show. Then too, young girls on the bus are always busy looking starry-eyedp this becomes monotonous, and no proper connoisseur pays them any attention. No doubt this annoys the young girls no end. No, I have come to specialize in older ladies. I say this, in fact, with much the same pride as a stamp-collector drawling, I collect British Colon- ials of the pre-Boer War period with kite-shaped chunks out of the upper right-hand corner. I specialize in old ladies. Rnd just the other day I ran across a marvellous specimen of this type while coming home from downtown. lRt least, I was coming home from downtowng judging from the expression on her face, the old lady may Well have been on her way to poison her grandchildren! It was a mean face, bleak, sour, and puckered, just as if she had swal- lowed the meat of an olive and still carried the pit in her mouth with no place to get rid of it. Naturally she interested me.

' Basketball Clinic: This was the first year for a basketball clinic which was started to train much-needed referees for basketball games throughout the city. The instructor was Miss Mackay from Delta, who coached us on successive Thursdays in December and lanuary on the procedure of taking charge of a basketball game. On Saturday, Ianuary l5th, Basketball Day was held at Tech. In the morning, fouls in basketball were demonstrated by a To- ronto teamg and then those who went to the Clinic tried a written test. The eight girls with highest marks on this test tried the practical examination of officiating at an actual game, lEd.

I watched her constantly now, wondering with all the thrill of such speculation just what com- bination of circumstances or events could have left her looking like that pale, thin, and drawn of face, evidently one who believed in no further cos- metics than face-powder and an old-maidish brand of perfume that cloyed rankly through the bus al- ready heavy with a mild winter's mud-smell. I stared at those pale, hangman's lips. Now I'll admit that my old lady doesn't sound very appetizing, but I assure you, I was intrigued with her. For there was in those lips the sugges- tion of a forgotten smile. H smile! That was it! To get her to smile-that would be like ringing the bell at a circus or winning a car on Truth or Con- sequences. It would repay my whole weary trip downtown.

Rather unsuccessfully I tried to be looking in some other direction. Biit how flinty those eyes were! I was as aston- ished as if she had used her hatpin on me. Re- taining only enough wit to recognize my ap- proaching stop, I prepared to leave the bus, rather reluctant to give up so ignominiously. Iust before my final departure, I beamed once more on my ancient Cleopatra, and as I did so she stabbed me with a look so evil, so malevolent, that I quaked my way all down the side street, feeling maybe I was lucky after all to escape so easily what was obviously the very devil herself. On a sudden im- pulse I ran back the way I had come, but wasn't quick enough to see whether or not the bus had burst into flames after I left it. lust the other day I met my friend Sweeney again.

The senior one mile relay team was composed of four boys: Husband, Webb, Spence- ley and Cuttriss. Each boy was to run four hun- dred and forty yards. Next came the senior one half mile relay team. In this event Zwirewich, Fochuk, Husband and Cuttriss each had to run two hundred and twenty yards. Next in line was the junior one half mile relay team with four boys: loyce, Haddow, Hopkins and Chilman. The Westdale teams were entered in the 91st Highlanders Track Meet which was held at the Hamilton Hrmouries March 12. The boys did very well in this meet and the school should be proud of them. In the sixty yard dash Stonehouse won first place, while Bethune ran third. The three hundred yard dash was the highlight of the evening as Stonehouse finished first and Thompson second. In this event Stonehouse broke his own Canadian ,record by one half second and he created a new record of 44.7 seconds. This win brought the H.C. C.I. Letterman's Trophy to Westdale for another year. The senior one mile relay did very well as they won second place in their event. Hn unfor- tunate accident took place in the senior one half mile relay when the lead-off man slipped on the track and dropped the baton. This incident elimi- nated the team from the race. The junior one half mile relay team showed up well as they won their event and brought the Norman Slater Trophy to the school for the next year. One of the most successful runners this year was Don Stonehouse. He competed in several meets during the season and he did very Well for him- self. Ht Madison Square Gardens in New York, Don won all his heats in the sixty yard dash and in the finals he won first place as he equalled the North lllmerican Schoolboy record of 6.3 seconds. In the Montreal Forum, he won the fifty yard Do- minion Championship for boys nineteen and under in 5.5 seconds. The record for this event is 5.4 seconds. Running against the world-famous Harrison Dillard in the fifty yard Canadian Open, Don was a dead heat for second place, one yard behind Dillard. Don's time was 5.3 seconds. Ht Hamilton Don not only won the sixty yard dash, but he also broke his own Canadian record in the three hundred yard dash for boys under eighteen. Congratulations, track team, and the best of luck next season. CURLING This year was the second season of curling at Westdale. The game had grown in popularity among the boys so that three teams were formed instead of one. Three of last year's curlers decided to skip their own rink, so they carefully chose their team. The green curlers quickly picked up the fundamentals at the Thistle Club. Their first taste of real competition came in the Ontario Schoolboy's Curling Bonspeil at Galt and Guelph. Rudy Marth, Mike Yednoroz, Ed Davey and skip fi 1 ' , . 41' . .- T , ' J , '-Y-.-.f , of 1 .is'iaE?lar . --iw .1 Hewitt Richardson, along with Pete Richardson, lohn Murray, Pete Reynolds and skip Mike Cassels formed the two teams that went to Galt. Qt Guelph, the Westdale rink included Brad Smith, Bill Cooper, Iohn Francis and skip Charlie Cassels. Of the three rinks, the Richardson rink made the best showing, but they were eliminated in the semi- finals. Ht Galt, Richardson downed Chatham 10-2 in the first draw. The last end decided the second draw as Richardson's boys downed Toronto West- ern Tech 8-5. The following clay the boys came from behind to defeat the Hudson brothers' rink from Midland 8-7. The next draw pitted the boys against Galt as the contest of elimination contin- ued. Behind by 7-l, Richardson skipped his rink to a 9-8 victory, as the boys came through in the last three ends. The fourth draw was the semi- final event: the opponents were the boys from Sault Ste. Marie. Hfter six solid hours of curling, the team began to tire. and the rink from the West downed them lO-2. lncidentally, the Sault Ste. Marie rink went on to win Ontario championship in the next game. The other Westdale team at Galt was young Mike Cassels' rink. This rink had plenty of fight and the boys did very well considering they had not played together as a team before the Bonspeil. In the first draw Mike Cassels' rink played Guelph. Rfter a shaky start, the team came from behind to win 104. The second draw was against Toronto Western Tech. Cassels had his opponents baffled, until the Toronto boys suddenly came to life and downed Westdale 8-5 on the last two ends. The third game was not decided until the last end, as Hamilton Central Collegiate edged Westdale out 7-5 in a very tight game. Rt Guelph, the Westdale rink skipped by Charlie Cassels lr. lost two very close games. In the open- ing draw the experienced Guelph rink downed Westdale 9-3 in a game that was much closer than the score would indicate. In the second game the boys were enjoying a comfortable lead, when the Hamilton Delta four carrie through with some spec- tacular shots and Westdale went down 7-6. The next day saw a Westdale revival. The Cassels four swamped Listowel 15-IU, and they took to the ice fifteen minutes later and trimmed Grand Valley 9-2. This victory placed them in the semi-finals of the consolation event. Hfter a short rest, the tired Westdale team faced a determined rink from Little Currant on Manitoulin Island. This was the third successive game and the Westdale rink went down to an ll-5 defeat. Back in Hamilton again, the Westdale rinks be- gan to compete in the lnterscholastic round-robin series for the Slater Trophy. The first few games were not very successful for the Westdale teams. Skip Richardson fractured his arm and his rink suffered another setback. The Schoolboy Bonspeil had taken the best the Westdale boys had to offer and they had little left as they were left out of the running. Thus ended another season of curling. The rinks were not victorious, but the boys admit they really enjoyed themselves, and made many new friends all over the province. 89 H ll In I l T 0 IT For BETTERUsedC0rs...
