LITERARY MEETING
13y 'Clifford Coqltes
Wingham District High School stu-
dents flocked to the town hall on Fri-
day afternoon for the last literary
meeting to be held this year. The sing-
ing of "0 Canada" opened the meet-
ing, The minutes of the last meeting
were read by Ruth Webb and adopted
by Jean Hobden.
The program for this last meeting
was in the hands of Grade XIII. The
first item was a solo, "The Thing", by
John Crawford, accompanied by Cath-
erine Keating, We knew John sang
In the Glee Club, but never before did
we realize his vocal powers as a solo-
ist. He responded to an encore with
"Life Gets Tee-jus, Don't It?" explain-
ing that it mirrored the sentiments of
many people at the present income
tax paying time. Both numbers were
immensely enjoyed,
Next came an opera, "Mad-House
Blues", presented by all the member's
of Grade XIII. The scene was any bar-
room. The bartender, George Porter,
told a long, long story about Joey,
"the backwoods boy who had lots
and lots of drive!"
The highlight was a dramatization
of "The Shooting of Dan McGrew,"
with Don Dickison as narrator. Dan-
gerous Dan McGrew was played by
Stewart Nirnmo, with Betty Gorbutt
as his Lady Lover and George Hall
as the miner from The Creeks, After
the shootings were over and John
Crawford, who hadn't been touched,
had been revived through artificial
respiration by Jim Wylie and a drink
from one of the numerous bottles,
Isobel Dennis played a piano solo.
Bodie Craig then introduced a Rus-
sian friend, Ivan MeXagueovitch,
(McKague) who played a solo on his
trumpet, "The Dark-Town Strutter's
Ball," accompanied by Catherine Keat-
ing. Ivan graciously responded to an
encore. Isobel Dennis then read the
journal 'she had prepared, with help
from the bartender on the big words.
In this tribute was paid to George Por-
ter, who has faithfully written our
journals all year, and whose name has
unaccountably been perennially absent
from the scandal sheet: Concern was
expressed over the inclination of IV
form students to be dull and law-abid-
ing, which is not reflected in fifth
form. Just one of those things I guess!
Critics remarks were given by Mr.
Turner. This meeting closed with the
Queen.

Pontiac again gives dramatic proof of its ever-growing
popularity! The passenger car registrations (obtained
from sources subscribed to by the industry and con-
sidered to be reliable) show more Canadians chose
Pontiac in 1952 than any other car produced by a
competitive manufacturer. Pontiac easily won second
place in the entire Industry, with a marked lead.
Back of this latest record-breaking story of
Pontiac's' constantly mounting popularity are the
hard facts of Pontiac's all 'round superiority in
beauty, value, performance and confistently ad-
vanced engineering features.
Pontiac for 1.953 offers you a choice of 29 different
models in five great series—the Pathfinder, Path-
finder Deluxe, Laurentian, Chieftain Special and
Chieftain Deluxe. Pontiac offers you the flashing
power and amazing economy of two famous high-
compression engines—the Pontiac "6" and "8".
Both incorporate numerous refinements for 1953
and the "6" now delivers 115 horsepower;with
synchromesh transmission and 118 horsepower with
Powerglide or flydraAlaticAutomaticTransmissions.
No other car offers a range of features that
includes dramatic new D nal-Streak s tylin g, new Wide.
Horizon vision with one piece curved windshield,
increased roominess, luxurious cohji.keyed interiors,
handsome panorama view instrument panel, new
crank operated ventipanes and rugged body by
Fisher. In addition, Pontiac offers you as optional
equipment at extra cost, new, finer Powerglide or
spectacular Dual Range hydra-Matic Drive; new • Power Steering; GM Shade-Lite Tinted Glass; the
amazing Autronic Eye which automatically dims
and" brightens headlights.
No other car in the price range it brackets can
compare with Pontiac for all 'round value and
dependability. Truly, it's tops in everything but
price! Visit your Pontine dealer soon . . . see
and drive one of these great ears for yourself.
You toe, like so many other Canadian motorists,
will agree that 4‘Dollar for Dollar, you can't beat
Pontiac!"
