Student Desks Make Homework A little Easier Juniors play in exhibition tournament BY BRENDA LEAHY' On Wednesday some of the more athletically inclined stu- dents went. to Goderich by bus to take part in the exhibition . volleyball tournament. In the first three sets the junior girls were defeated in two games by Goderich,\Clint- on and Seaforth, but in the last set •agairif.. xeter our team came out victorious,. The scores of this set were: 15-10 for W ingham , 15-10 for Exeter, and„then 15-13 for Wingham. Since this was the first tourn- ament for many of the new team members, the three Tosses can be easily overlooked and I'm sure all of the future games will be' won by our spirited team of junior girls. WOSSA :now��►9 cross-country meet, As a whole, tthe:Wingham teams were very successful, The girls' team consisting of Lynda Walden, 'Oertni "e Van Beers, Henny .Beyersbergen, Cheryl McCuttcheon and Dianne Machan,placed third in the race with a total of . forty points It should be noted that these girls had no pre-;tmeet training and therefore this is a very commendable record. In the boys' division the ret sults were indeed excellent, Wingham's Paul Moffatt spark- ed the F. E. Madill Secondary School's second place team finish by placing first in the entire race with a record breaks ing time of 9:41:5 for the course Paul's back-up runners were Joe DeBruyn placing third, Gary Barbour, sixteenth, P. Beard 30th and Paul iieffer` . 51st, In the junior division Wing - ham came forth as a team. it was a tough race in which Tien Mather; led the Wingham pack with an lith place finish. The other Wingham runners were: K. Kieffer, IC; MacLean, P. MacKinnon and 4. Aichison. Wingham's best achieve- ment chieverent of the day came in the senior class. As a team Wing-. ham placed first with a point total of 44. This in itself is a very worthy achievement since thisimeet included schools . from London and Sarnia. John Haasnoot ran a very strong race and placed second. The re- maining Wingham runners fin- ished close ;behind with John Rae placing 8th, -John Scott 12th, Paul Guest 22nd Land Doug Garniss 31st. This coming Saturday the boys will participate in the All -Ontario meet's Wood- bridge. ` Former office employe� now on teaching staff I have had the opportunity 'to welcome one of the school's new commercial teachers, Mrs..

Mrs Davis believes that if every one would-stik'to the "Golden Rule" there would be more happy. people today. Although Mrs. Davis has worked in the school's office for many years this isher first year of teac1 ing, In the next few years Mrs. Davis hopes to further her stud- ies, remain in teaching and travel more, To Mrs. Davis the students are; "Absolutely wonderful" and F.

Mustangs de1eat 67 champs After suffering their first- de- feat of the season to the Goder- ich Vikings, the Mustangs re- gained some of their old spirit when they met last year's win- ning Exeter team. Right from the start of the encounter with Exeter the Wingham offense showed their rivals who was on top as Dale Wardley, one of the Mustang's super fast full- backs, scored' on a 2 5 -yard off -tackle on the third play. Wardley again in the second quarter scored on another off - tackle after Exeter had scored a major and a convert. Thus at the end of half time the score was 12-7. In the next quarter both sides were scoreless and the Mustang defense succeeded in halting an Exeter drive on the Mustang second -yard line. Doug Mow- bray was the man of the quarter as he halted the Exeter runner for the last play of the quarter. The last period of the game saw the Wingham offense start. on their own two- yard line and march up the field, running off -tackles all the way to end up scoring a T) with Grant Coulters getting the honors. Two interceptions, again by ,Mowbray, helped set up the Mustang attack. On the last play of the game our ingeniou Monty Templeman who was at the reins of the Mustangs all day, threw a stick into Exeter's spokes by putting double tack- les' on the left and thereby causing the Exeter line to shift with the double tackle. He then called a pitch around the right end which Dale Wardley grabbed and outran the sur- prised Exeter team for his third TD of the day. That ended the scoring at 24-7 for Wingham. Seaforth will be visited by the Mustangs on Wednesday and if Wingham is victorious will advance to the semi-finals against Exeter. The players for Wingham • are as follows: 45 Doug Mc- Lean, 78 Bill Strong., 44 Mur- ray McDonald; 71 Bill Snow, 40 Barry Currah, 76 Glenn Rut - tan, 54 Doug Elliott, 22 Grant Coultes, 50 Doug Wheeler, 30 Robert Armstrong, 51 Ron Cook, 20 Dale Wardley, 53 Neil Vin- cent, 31 Greg Wilson, 55 Bruce Corrigan, 35 Neil Hemingway, 52 Barry Paul, 23 Tom Black, 64 Brian Forsythe, 34 Doug Mowbray, 63 Grant Currie, 24 Bruce Boyd, 65 John O'Malley, 2 5 :Mac Anderson, 61 Doug Cook, 21 George Vallance, 60 Chuck Gibson, 33 Paul Guest, 62 Gary Chambers, 32,Bob Corrigan, 77 Neil Gowing, 10 Monty Templeman, 70 Pet e Snow, 11 Joe Kerr , 72 Doug Millen, 12 Craig Gilroy.
