People began 9 o'clock, nxade checkroom and nounced to the Ian McAllister, this year of Mr. and Mrs. H. L. Sturgis, Dr. and Mrs. H. Cowen, Miss May Schroeder and Grant Morgan. After dancing for some time, the crowd was informed that lunch was being served in the cafeteria and immediately the couples took the same pro­ cedure as we do every day, that is they stood in line waiting for theix* lunch. At midnight, the big event of the evening took place—the crowning of the Queen for 1950. Donald Bergie and Donald Web­ ster raised them bugles for the fanfare and the procession which was headed by the buglers. Then Mr. Sturgis, our principal, and Bill Mickle, president of the Student Council, Queen May Schroeder and her Prince Con­ sort, Grant Morgan, Janet Kestle (Queen for 1949) and Betty Mic­ kle (Queen for 1948) marched in a stately manner to the throne which was raised on a small platform. Brief addresses were given, first by Mr. Sturgis and then Bill Mickle, who ex­ plained the manner in which the Queen had been chosen. The formei' queen, Janet Nestle, was then asked to place the crown on the new queen and Betty Mickle presented her with a bouquet of red roses on 'behalf of the student body. The new,* beautiful, excited queen made a very fitting reply expressing her thanks and appreciation to the ■Queen last Friday evening archest x* a of filing in around their way to the were then an- receiving line by which consisted fl thanks and appreciation students who voted her fox* 1950, The five other lovely dates for queen (Betty ____ _ Joan Gill, Joan Hopper, Audrey Gill and Lois Alexander) were called upon the stage by George Rether«, who acted as master of ceremonies for the crowning and presentation. They were then re­ cipients of little remembrances presented to them by Bill Mickle on behalf of the Student Council. The dance proved to be a great success and I am sure everyone enjoyed themselves thoroughly. We were very happy to have Jack Doerr there to take pictures of the dance and of the crowning. These pictures are now on display at the high school and if anyone wishes to order one or two would they please get in touch with Bill Mickle or Jack Doerr himself. * * « * Being such a busy week with the oncoming dance, we still managed to play a couple of basketball games, thus complet­ ing the series and winning the Huron County Championships. These games were played last Wednesday evening in the' gym- torium with the Exetex1 senioi* teams host to Goderich. The boys won their game by a ten-point margin, final score reading 40-30. Schroeder was the big gun for the boys, hoop­ ing sixteen points, while h!s teammates made up the remain­ ing twenty-four points. The boys looked in good shape and now advance into the quarter finals against Alymer. The first game of this total-point series was played in Alymer on Wednesday night and the last game will be played in Exeter next Wednes­ day night.
