STUDENT -TEACHER
BROOMBALL GAME
On Wednesday, January 18, in
the midst of the Winter Carnival,.
everyone was dismissed at .1.00 to
see the annual Student -Teacher
Broomball.game at the Wingham
arena. The arena was packed with
spectators who witnessed the
-unfortunate loss. The teachers
managed a lucky goal to give
them a 1-0 victory over the
students. Each team had to have
five female players (and ,the rest
Male): Mr. B. Elliott ("B" stands
for blind) and the competent,
honest Frank Leah)n were the
referees. The _game consisted of
two twenty minute periods. Mr.
Lane-, the hero: of the teacher
team, got the only goal, late" in the
first 'period. He was assisted by
Miss Schofield and Mr. Willis.
It was a heavy -hitting game
with three, big penalties. Janet
Wood got one for molesting a
teacher, Paul Dickson for broom
foul and Mr. Gavreluk got a
penalty for reasons unknown (but
probably ,well-deserved!).' Mr.
"Swift -Stick" McLennan should
have receiveda penalty for
picking on various=; ` defenceless
student players - but - Mr. Elliott
failed tosee the obvious (sight
becomes. impaired with old age)
and Mr. McLennan' " escaped
unpunished.
Special thanks go to the,
cheerleaders who stood behind
the right team and encouraged
the students. Coach Graham
almost didn't make it to the
game, because of his injury, but
he ignored the pain and his agony
(woo!) and got there by stretcher!
The only thing wrong with the
game, was That the teachers
never gave the student team
enough time to score!

GREASER DAY
On Friday the students of F. E.
greeted the school in a different
way; but why shouldn't they.
Friday was the last day of the
winter carnival. and greaser day.
Many students costumed them-
selves in fifties costume with. 11F
having the greatest participation,
and 13B coming second.
The apparel of many of the girls
consisted of a blouse, perhaps a
sweater, a skirt, white running
shoes, and of course bobby socks.
As far as the guys went, there
was a wide selection. An old suit
and tie,. adorned with a. white
shirt. The doter ..to` authentic,
I with T-shirts and stovepipe pants.
And the "pseudo-Fonz" type
with jeans, T-shirt, leather jacket,
shades, and of course greased
hair, hence the name greaser. day.
There were aslo many other
variations:, and new ideas, too
numerous to mention.
As with any dress up day, there
were those, (including' yours
struly), who refused, or just
didn' t dress up. As with the
greasers, there was a wide range
of clothing here too, although it
didn't count.
These dress up days, like
purple and white day, drum up a
lot of school spirit, not to mention
the fact that they can be fun..
There should be more of them in
the future, to break a up the
monotony of everyday life.
