Wingham was forced to hick off, and Goderich displayed an excel- lent burst of strength, for in less than, three minutes of the first quarter they completed a long pass. The receiver ,slipped from the Wingham tackler, and orossed the goal line, completing a forty yard touchdown. Winghan gathered enough strength to block the con- vert, so the score stood at 6-0. Wingham countered with a series of plays through the middle, and Bruce Lott tied the score With a touchdown within six minuteof the first quarter. Robertson kicked the convert and Wingham took an unlost lead of 7-6. The score froze for two quarters. These quarters were sparked by rough play and three close calls, two by Wingham and one by Goderich. Wingham reached the five yard line, but, being unable to gain ground against the Goderich line, attempted a field goal. It was blocked. Goderich captured ground until they were within two yards of the goal line, but a fumble recovered by Wingham stopped 'that rush. Wingham again pushed Goderich into their own end zone but, en a third down the ball carrier hit the goal post and bounced back onto the field, so Wingharn lost the ball On the Goderich one yard line, The fourth quarter was much the same, with the exception that instead of being blocked, Bruce Robertson made a touchdown by .a quarter -back sneak, then converted his own touchdown for the last point in the game, making the final score 14-6 in favour of Wingham. Thus it ended. Our boys returned jubilantly to the dressing room, and the fans dispersed discussing highlights and disputed plays. The boys play two important Home games now, and one student body will be expected to give plenty of moral support from the sidelines. • by Tom Brydges XIIA • A VARIETY OF PENNY CANDIES A primary' trouble with today's social order is that boys and girls no longer can go to an old-fash- ioned general store and ponder the spending of a few pennies be- fore a fly -specked candy counter filled with a score of kinds of penny candies. That was the practical economic training which gave thousands of today's middle- aged citizens a first-hand know- ledge of the intrinsic value of money. Today's boys and girls think in terms of nickels, dimes and quarters. On Saturday evening, while mo - tiler and father bartered eggs and butter and perhaps a bushel or two of potatoes for groceries, hardware, a yard of percale and Some red hair ribbons for the girls, a 12 -year-old boy stood in front of the candies and figured how hest to 'spend 'his pennies. Chocolates were admittedly de- licious but they had no lasting qualitiee, A boy wanted material that would last and still provide plenty of flavor. He studied the hard sugar candies in their many flavors: coltsfott, ginger, cinna- m o n, Wintergreen, horehound, birch, o r an g e, anise, Sassafras, clove, lemon and lime. He studied the mint kissee, tangy balls, sour ball, little bean pots filled with sugar-coated peanuts, jawbreak- ers and humbugs. There were chocolate cigars with colorful wrappers, candy eigar- ettes, coconut flag, long licorice sticks, "ping tobacco" with a tin star, and peppermint flavored pa- raffin that had satisfying lasting qtialities, • A. yeung citizen with three or four pennies had •a difficult time, but it taught one to think through before he Made tiji his mind.— Ottawa ,Tournal, Like to Use Your Bow andArrow? tow and arrow hunters will have do opportunity to pit their skill tit stalking against the wily deer of Manitoulin and ntirrie Islands dur. lug the Period 'Sattirday, October 27th to 'Saturday, November lOth, both dates InclusiVe, WOO Villtsgloam 4dvanne4imear '11144004*N not.
