The children's toys which were collected by the Student Council were piled into a sleigh and used for decoration at the dance, they were later sent to the Salvation Army. The highlight of the evening was the appearance of Santa Claus, who passed out candy canes and then led - the singing of Christmas carols. -Sandra Johan son.

The Inter-School Christian Fellowship is one of the many organizations in our school. The motto is To know Christ and to make Him known, and the individual motto is I Serve Christ First . This group meets every Tuesday after school, and has a varied program. There is usually a guest speaker, or there is a speaker from the group. To make the meeting more interesting the I.S.C.F. has a quiz, word drill, or brings talent to each meeting. There is also a monthly Bible study to further a Christianfs knowledge about the Bible. The meeting ends promptly at 4:30 to let the mem- bers out in good time. There is a social event every two or three mon- ths to which everyone in the school is invited, in- cluding the staff. Last year there was a corn roast, horseback riding and a Christmas party including bowling or skating. The groups bring films periodically to the meet- ings and socials, and attempts to bring one, once a year, to a school assembly. The I.S.C.F. is part of a big organization not only in Toronto, but throughout Ontario and Canada. The students finance it entirely by themselves. It makes students learn to work along with and co- operate with other people, as well as directing their interests not only in Christian work at home but in missionary work abroad. This non-sectarian group brings Christians to- gether and provides a time for good Christian Fel- lowship. A welcome is waiting any who have an interest in furthering the cause of Christ in the school. HAll0WE'EN DANCE On Thursday October 31, 1957, our annual witch and ghost ball was held. The cafeteria contained hundreds of dancing teenagers under the direction of the popular Westeen. Students had decorated the pillars and walls with witches, streamers and pumpkins. From the boy's gym could be heard the music of John Beard and his orchestra. Here, the walls were clustered with witches and pumpkins, while the baskets carried balloons and streamers. The floor supported students dancing in their socks. We owe these successful dances to John Beard, the Westeen and the many, many participants. - Bernice Ashford. Mr. Shepherd noticed that during a speed test, Orian would type for a while and then stopg type again and then stop, and this was the procedure that went on several times. At the end of the test Mr. Shepherd said: Where you not feeling well Orian? I noticed you stopped several times . Orian: No, I'm all right, but I don't hear too well and I didn't want to miss the bell.

--7 -K ri! N , RZ SPORT Q Xl A I 'I f gf e I X-jk X0 ji w eston started the season off on the right foot times on Weston's one-yard line. by defeating Vaughan Road 13-7. A pass from Arnie Robb to Wayne Hellmer accounted for one touchdown, while Des Hennessey's run provided the margin. Hans Kulker converted the latter of these. Good tackling by the defensive secondary and good punting by Jesse Weller were two of the most important features of the victory. Weston, while playing their second consecutive away game, held Rurmymede to a 6-6 tie with Kulker and Johnson playing well. In the home-coming game, Weston celebrated its centeniary by dousing York Memorial 14-6. Passes were the means by which Weston scored, with Ray Kerr catching a Wayne Hellrner pass for one major and Jesse Weller receiving one from Arnie Robb for the second. The latter play carried 50 yards. Hans Kulker converted both scores. Evans and M ittice were outstanding in a winning cause. Weston ended the regular season by winning over Forest Hill. Arnie Robb and Jim Kilpatrick starred for the victors in the contest which al- lowed the Ironmen to enter the group semi-finals. Weston then entered the semi-finals. On a wet, muddy field, they squashed Forest Hill's hopes by the score of 6-4. Ray Kerr scored the game's only touchdown on a pass. The high point of the game was when our seniors held the Falcons three Runnymede ended the Ironmen' s unbeaten streak, in the group finals, by trouncing them 40-0. Hell- mer, Ashbee, and Kerr all played well, but the star of the game was David Grundy who returned kicks sensationally all afternoon. This loss eliminated Weston from further competition. The first game saw the junior Ironmen lose 6-0 to Vaughan Road. The surprising factor was that the opposition was completely outplayed everywhere except on the scoreboard. Weeks, Mackenzie and Hall all played well in a losing cause. The second defeat came at the hands of the Run- nymede Redmen who won out 12-6. The boys played well but were too inexperienced for the junior Red- men. Currie Ward, Ron Kerr, and Jim Boyce were outstanding. George Harvey then visited Weston and managed to win 13-7 in a thriller. Gerald King scored Weston's major which was successfully converted. Allan, MJrgan, and Beasley, each tried hard in this game. Westonls lone victory came in the home -coming game when they whipped York Memorial to the tune of 22-1. Mackenzie, Osbourne, and Sedgewick all scored touchdowns with Osbourne's covering sixty- five yards. Osbourne and Morgan starred in the win.
