Home My WebLink AboutThe Wingham Advance-Times, 1963-12-19, Page 18Page 10 -- Wingham Advance -Times, Thursday, Dec. 19, 1963 STUDENT COUNCIL Form delegates dealt with two matters in a short meeting last week. First, acting on the suggestion of Mrs. Davis, head secretary at W. D. H. S. , they voted to assign $35.00 to the decorating committee for the formal of which Bill McBurney is in charge. This would allow the committee to pay bills as they come and would lessen the amount of bookkeeping to be done. Secondly, form repre- sentatives were asked to obtain the names of those going to the formal. This information was to be used in instituting a new fun idea at the formal which, incidentally, is being held on Friday of this week unless you have a very slow mail service. HAMLET Grades Eleven, Twelve and Thirteen had the privilege of seeing Sir Laurence Oliver's movie, "Hamlet", in the audi- torium last Monday. Admis- sion price was a quarter and the two lunch periods served as an intermission. (It was shown in two parts because of its length). Almost all the viewers enjoyed it although some had a rather unfortunate tendency of laugh- ing at the peak moments oftra- gedy. The movie was of spec- ial interest to Grade Thirteen which is studying "Hamlet" this year. Carol Singing The traditional assemblies for carol singing were started on Tuesday of this week. Shortly before 9:00 the students gather- ed in the auditorium. The singing lasted for about a quar- ter of an hour with Mr. Vivian P Qa ep v Sf V y V Dress WHAT FINER GIFT THAN A LUXURIOUS KENWOOD y ALL WOOL BLANKET ms°PriceAt 13Q5 15 95 �4..

Wrestling Over twenty wrestlers went to Listowel last Friday to par- ticipate in a tournament witn that high school. They had gratifying success, particularly in the lighter weight classes. Their coach is Mr. Gnay, who also teaches biology at W.D. H.S. Report Cards Ungrateful students got their report cards on Tuesday of this week. Victory Dance Last Friday evening a dance was held in the high school gymnasium for the triumphant football team. Members of the team chose Don McDowell as Most Valuable Player, Fraser Strong as Best Linesman, and Willie Smith (from the cheer- leaders) as Miss Wingham Mus- tang. Basketball Basketball try -outs began last week. Miss Munro and Mrs. Tiffin coach the girls' teams while Mr. Bender and Mr. McGlaughlin are in charge of the junior and senior boys' teams, respectively. When a man says his word is as good as his bond, get his bond. (#-Thri HOME GAMES Minor Hockey Schedule The following is the sched- ule for home games for minor hockey teams.

Squirts May Still Register The Squirts, age 6-10 years practise at the arena Saturday mornings between 9 and 11 o'clock. The registration is down considerably with only approximately 35 youngsters. In former years there were nearly 60 children in this age group registered. Any child who would like to play hockey and is in this age group may still register Satur- day mornings 9-11 o'clock. Remember parents, all players must wear a hockey helmet. This group is ably coached by Jim Bain and Del Ewing. It is hoped in the future to have a squirt club enter several of the tournaments in our area. ONLY A FEW DAYS LEFT! YOU'LL HAVE TO HURRY!

The boys need the support of the public as spectators. Ornamental Pineapple A hospitality pineapple is an unusual and attractive buffet decoration that is very simple to make and will last for sev- eral days. First, protect the green crown of the fruit with a polythene bag - the kind that vegetables come in is just the thing - and then spray the pine- apple with paint, While the paint is still wet some ornamentation can be add• ed - either by sprinkling with glitter - or affixing sequins to the pineapple eyes. Wire - string beads stuck amongst the green leaves of the crown are a nice finishing touch, and the pineapple can then be placed . on a tray and surrounded with polored baubles. Choose a small Christmas tree, it will be less hazardous than a larger one. 44. Plastic Garbage Bags on Market Entertaining over the holi- day season is usually heavy an& to face a grim fact so is the resulting garbage! This year there are sturdy plastic garbage bags to help cope with the pro- blem. Garbage can be safely transferred in them, from the kitchen to the outdoors, be- cause the bags are leakproof. They are also odourless. Packages of 10 and 20 are sold through grocery and hard- ware stores and a resourceful housewife will soon find many other uses for them, such as holding damp clothes while awaiting ironing, storing pol- ished hollow silver to prevent tarnish, and for use` as, a laun- dry bag when travelling. PRETTY SHOE BAGS It's shoe -toting time. Wo- men wearing snow boots are carrying shoes to work; bowlers are carrying shoes to the alleys. Zippered shoe cases are de- signed with over -the -arm han- dles and covered 'with washable materials in patterns ranging from simulated leather to petit - point. Much more attractive than old paper bags! Make Bleach Bottles Into Piggy Banks The bottles that bleach and detergents come in are poten- tial piggy banks... believe it or not. The bottle may be left its original color, but it can be given a really glamorous ap- pearance simply by spraying it with gold or silver paint, When the paint is dry the bottle is then laid on its side for the next step, which is to add legs, Four stubby corks are just the thing for this and they can be either glued in place or inserted in- to holes cut in the bottle with a sharp, pointed paring knife. The decoration is now added and here is where your imagin- ation can run wild, for there is no intention to make the pig realistic looking. The neck of the bottle makes a natural snout, and features such as eyes, mouth and ears are cut from colored felt and glued into place. And a truly finished look will be achieved if the cap of the bottle and the four legs have felt wrapped around them. For a touch of whimsy, cut tiny flower shapes in bright colored felt and glue them here and there.

SERPENTS EVERYWHERE Nearly three thousand spec- ies of snakes are known and they•probably are descended from lizard -like ancestors who lived roughly one hundred mil- lion years ago. All snakes lack moveable eyelids. lievable tail, a pipe cleaner, twisted into a curlicue, can be popped into a hole punched with an ice pick. The slot for pennies is cut with a knife in the centre back and a twist of the nosecap will take care of the day when the bank is robbed! LAIDLAW GRADE "A" OVEN READY TURKEYS 20 LBS.
