Volleyball Teams Trounce Mitchell In Old 6ymn (By Margaret Wallis, 12A) Mitchell girls came to com- pete with 'Clinton volleyball teams on Tuesday, October-25. Mitchell cheerleaders attended to give their team support, The juniors played first in a very even game. Through- out all contests, the ceiling was a great obstacle, especially to Mitchell, who were used 'to a much higher one. Joanne John- ston scored seven of Clinton's 12 winning points, Mitchell scored 8. In the second game Kaye Carter hit three side-arm ser- ves which Mitchell did not "pick up" and Rose Brubacher also served three consecutive times. Time was called by Mit- chell. Marjorie Woods, Clinton and E. Nicholson, Mitchell, helped their respective teams greatly when play resumed. Mitchell won 15-13, forcing a third game. In the third game, Clinton began triumphantly with Rose-. Mary MacDonald getting six points. The audience went wild cheering their favourites. Mit- chell again called 'time out to try to "pull the team together". Clinton won 15-2, thus winn- ing the day's total game. In the senior game, Clinton began well with service by Margaret Merrill, followed by Karen Buck and Mary Jean S CHARLES House of Beauty • Hair Styling • Cold Waving Open Monday to Saturday 9 to 6 p.m. Evenings by Appointment HU 2-7065 '74 Victoria Street CLINTON 31-tfb I Seaforth Red Devils opened a home and home series with the Redinen at Clinton on Wednesday, October 26.

Though the field was Colquhoun. Clinton won the first game easily;' 15-4, In the second game, Janet Batkin with her powerful "drive" •and Mary Macauley's good under- hand serve greatly helped the confidence of the other girls and boosted the score. Clinton won the second game 15-5. Congratulations to both te- ams for the victory against Mitchell. Good luck at 'the tournament on Wednesday, November 21. S A newcomer to the CDCI staff this year is Mr. Fleming, who is from Pelee Island, On- tario, He attended public sch- ool there and later went to Essex District High School, Mr. Fleming studied at As- sumption University in Wind- sor, gaining his B.A, degree in psychology.

Mr. Fleming's intentions are to further his studies in psy- chology which will lead to gu- idance assistance in high school. slippery and soggy, there was no lack of excitement. Clinton opened the scoring in the first quarter with a kick behind Seaforth's, end zone for a point. Seaforth roared back with a touchdown by Elliott but failed to convert and the score read 6 to 1. PAUL PICKETT Clinton pulled a surprise play when half-back Ron Liv- ermore (whO was apparently going to run the ball after Seafonth had punted) fired a quick pass to Larry Powell at the Clinton ten-yard' line. Pow- ell ran the length of the foot-. ball field for a TD, only to have it called back as an off. Side pass. This was the turn- ing point in the game for Sea- forth. In the second quarter Ben- nedyke for Seaforth intercep- ted a Clinton pass and smashed through for Seafonth's second and last 'touchdown. Again they failed to convert but led 12 to 1. In the last quarter Paul Pickett pulled in a long pass from Ron Livermore and raced' through for his first touchdown Cross Country Race At WOSSA (By DeWayne 41liott, 12A) On Saturday afternoon, Oc- tober 29, running teams from Western Ontario high schools converged on London to decide a winner for this year's annual cross-country W.O.S.S,A. race.

Library Club In .Charge Of Keeping Order (By Barbara, aa.d Janet Keaderaon, 12A) The seventeen members of ..he Library Club meet in the library whenever necessary un- der the guidance of Mr. Flem- ing, the staff librarian. The officers of 'the club are pres. ident, Barbara Inder, 1.1A; secretary, :Elizabeth Inder, 10 A; treasurer, Marie Riley, 11A; press reporter, Marion Dale, 12A. • BARBARA 1NDER The club executive met the early part of this week to dis- cuss the rules of the library concerning overdue books and lost books. The Library Club has two. purposes: 1. to fulfill librarian duties, 2. to discover and share a delight in books. The library is open, to stud- ents 'from 3.15 to 4 p.m. The three librarian on duty each day wear tags prepared for them by the Art .Club indicat- ing their name and position. Quietness in the library must be maintained by the student librarians; Their daily duties are to mark books in and out correct- ly and to collect fines. They place books on the correct sh- elves and correct shelving er- rors' made by students. They tidy magazine racks and aid in discipline control, as well as help students 'to find books and reference material. They also arrange bulletin board displays. Periodically they dust shel- ves, repair damaged books and classify and cover new books which they expect to receive in the winter term. 0 Girl Guide News (By Betty Jo Beeves) Six patrol leaders and sec- onders of the First Clinton Girl Guide Company spent last weekend at "Idle Acres" the summer cottage of Mr. and Mrs. L. G. "Skip" Winter. They arolved about 3 o'clock Saturday afternoon with camp provisions. Gathering wood', making a fire, and fetching water were some of the main tasks. After supper they had a visit from Mr. and Mrs. H. A. Graham and family. They had a pleasant time sitting around the campfire in their Hallow- e'en costumes. Sunday morning they went to their own churches in. Clin- ton and met afterwards to re- turn for dinner, pack camp equipment and leave camp. 1•1.11110MIIMMMINM Low' Mentality The Editor Clinton News-Record It seems that the latest fad in Clinton was demonstrated Monday evening of this week amid the hazards of rain, poor visibility and many young lives roaming the streets trick-or- treating. People seem to have no regard for anything these days, especially the safety of lives. During the course of the ev- ening the fire siren sounded and instantly it was the signal for a mass of horn-honking cars to come roaring out from every direction, cutting in' and out, jockeying for position at Huron and Erie Streets, and racing down the highway bum- per to bumper towards the fire. I think this is a disgrace. The mentality of these peo- ple can't be very high. If it had been a serious fire, casual- ties, etc., the ambulance would still be trying to get by the horde of drivers. The firemen have a hard en- ough chore to cope with a fire let alone with scores of drivers in town, irresponsible people, supposed to be adults, treating a serious thing like this as though it were a signal for a big parade and celebration. We can have parades, but in the proper way. There are many petty things treated as a big deal in this town but when it comes to something serious it is treated as nothing. I don't' know where enforcement is, but this is a case where I 'think that anyone taking part in an escapade like this should be punished, 'the same as for any other crime, In my opinion this is a crime. If there is any racing to a fire, etc., it should be done by the firemen, ambulance, police and press, etc. John Doe is not needed and should stay Interview With Mr. Fleming Redmen Lose to Red Devils, 12-8, Last Week (By Ken. Scott, 1213) "P? c p,N.,.i A DJAN, Letter To The Editor away and act like the adults they are supposed to be. I would' suggest strongly that the powers in control of our town squash this sort of thing now as. well as drag-racing the town streets at any time and also continual horn-honking, tire squealing and motor rac- ing cars all hours of the night. We have a pretty good town here, but unless these things are cleaned up, our town won't get any better, and it's up to everyone to help clean it up regardless of who, what or how it's done.
