It does seem sad when in re- sponse to the cheerleaders' "Give me a W", the echo is about one-quarter of the vol- ume it should be. Ask yourself, "What is school spirit?" Isn't it a good thing to have pride in your school teams arid activities? It reflects greatly on other things, you know. If you expect to en- joy your school life you must take an interest in these things or school will just be a place where you exist six hours each day, five days a week. The fun and the enthusiasm you share with your friends, enrich- es school life. Think it over again, Isn't it worth it? What are YOU going to do about it?

Ile then moved i to a farm six miles from the village of Port Perry where his secondary school education was obtained. Four years later, hav- ing graduated from the Univer- sity of Toronto where he major- " ed in biology, he and his wife came to Wingham. Mr. Taylor's main interests ' outside of school include mu- sic (lie belonged to a folksing- ing group in his youth) and sports, especially swimming. He likes the new curriculum as it provides a course for ev- ery student and therefore there is no excuse for a student to drop out. I am happy to say his com- ments on the students were very i favorable. His aspiration is to be a good teacher and I feel he has already proven himself. "Stud- ents who play with gas taps," he says, "are my only dislikes." From all of us we wish you the best of luck in the future. This year the junior girls started practising volleyball in the early part of October. The team is getting ready for the Huron-Perth Tournament which is being held in Exeter on No- vember 15. The girls played three exhibition games and have won them Listowel was the first team to be defeated. The juniors won the first game 15-4 but Listowel won the second game 15,-5. Then the deciding game was won by Wingham, 15-11 in a very close match. Ripley was the next victim for the juniors. Wingharn won the first game 15-3 bot again the opposing force won 15-13 in the second game. In the third and deciding game, Wing- "Would you say we have school spirit when there are about 20 students left at the game after the buses leave?" " Well, at least school spirit is better than last year." "It can only be improved by participation, not just talk- ing about it." "I think we should have a short pep rally in the auditor- ium before each game." "It's lousy." Volleyball ham trounced Ripley 15-1. Listowel then ventured to Wingham for a rematch but again were defeated by the Wingham squad. The scores were 16-14 for Wingham and then 15-5 for Listowel, but the Wingham group came back and soundly defeated the Listowel girls' 15-9. The team consists of Cap- tain Jill McPherson, Mary and Susan Czerniawski, Linda Car- son, Sane Harrison, Pat Zur- brigg, Marg Wright, Barb White, Bonnie Willie, Jean Newton, Joanne King and Joan Dickison, The girls have played very well so far and we wish them luck with any further exhibi- tion games and the tournament.

Those taking the course were: Virginia Benedict, Bar- rie Conran, Brian Cronkwright, Theresa De Bruyn, Carl Ella- colt, David Field, Ronald Herd, Yvonne Johnston, Bob King, Rae Mathers, Doug McDonald, Janetta McDonald, David Mc- Dougall, Liz McPherson, Anne Meyer, Denise Norman, Ian Scott, Larry Smith, Marilyn Strong and Christine Thompson. Now we are entering the more dangerous halt in which a brand new 't37 Dodge Coronet is placed in the hands of unskilled drivers (thanks to Crawford Mo- tors of Wingham). Mrs. Stuart Forsyth, our driving instructor informed us, "At least this year you don't have to endure that hideous distinguishing sign!" For Mrs. Forsyth's benefit and consolation a foot brake will be installed on her side of the car, If, by chance, you encounter a "smashing" blue Coronet -- beware!! Teachers Wallop Students (A Prejudiced Writer) Last Tuesday the mightily muscled men of the staff chal- lenged the boys' volleyball team. The team accepted the challenge fearfully, remember- ing shellackings they had taken in the past. In the second game the men battled from behind to easily trounce the boys' team 15-13. Members of the staff team were Mr. Jones, •Mr. 'Simpson, Mr. Stuckey, Mr. Wood, Mr. Bran- don, Mr. Higgs, and Mr. Camp- bell, Members of the boys' team prefer to remain anony- mous. P.S.: Four other games were played with somewhat different results. Cross-Country Teams Do Well BY PAUL GUEST 10C The Western Ontario (W.O.
