Every week after making my deposit, I read my book. It’s full of wonderful facts: Fact No. 1, that I’m prepared for unexpected expenses. Fact No. 2, that my money is easily available . . . Fact No. 3, that as my savings increase, my money earns more interest for me.

These larvae are peculiar in that they feed on the previous years’ foliage while others feed on the new growth. The appearance of trees so defoliated is spoiled. If defoliation is severe the tree suffers a severe set­ back. * A virus spray which has beep used successfully against these larvae is available from your nearest Depart­ ment of Lands and Forests office, This spray should he applied about ten to fourteen days after the larvae hatch.

Volleyball, table tennis (a recent innovation) and baseball have captured great interest and aroused more than sufficient en­ thusiasm to make such an undertak­ ing worth while. Since the baseball schedule is not yet only half finished, a report on the outcome of the games will not be fur­ nished until a later date. However, volleyball has come to an end and the junior and senior champions have been declared. After gruelling match­ es in the junior cycle, XC finally over­ came IXB to capture the junior cham­ pionship, after winning their final match 27-24. In the senior division, the XIB boys finished on top with the senior cham­ pionship after dealing to XIIA & B a sound licking 27-18. I shall now move on to table tennis, which reminds me of ancient Greek tournaments in which prowess is measured by the worth of the single contestant, rather than by the work­ ing ability of the team, In this divis­ ion of sports, the competition was very keen. Dave Donahue, a XIII student carried off the championship after a successful final match with Doug Murray. One might speculate at this point whether the rapid approach of the final examinations will dull the inter­ est in the remaining schedules, or whether a victory for any group now would be conducive to serious, study­ ing.
