The first bus was co-piloted by Mr. Morrison who had to sit in a Lawn chair be- side the driver because of the tack of space on the bus. Miss Hayes managed things on the ' other bus. The performance was excel- lent. The costuming was impres- sive and the sound effects were most realistic. Typical of the Caliber seen in the Festival. During the prolonged curtain call at the 'end of the perform- ance,', King • Lear, played'. by William -Hutt, was received with a standing ovation and Edward .Atienza who played the King's fool was rated second by the audience and was given a deafen- ing applause.

John Demo Being the only remainingmember of last year's schoolpage staff to take "the torch" into 1973 was not the most comfort- able position to be in. But the worthiness of fhis challenge has prevailed: Mrs. Wenger and Mrs.' Tiffin, along with a host of school page memories have provided moral and practical support: So, last Monday morning, the appeal for recruits was made. Speaking before 1,.500 people is such an unnerving business when you're not accustomed to it. Delightful is the word to describe the turnoutfor the school page last Tuesday. We will endeavor to in- form you and amuse you on a weekly basis. .Your comments and suggestions by letter and by rnouth will be most welcome. We're going to enjoy it and hope that you will too.

The Mustangs defeated the Clinton Junior Red men 29-0. Madill'i touchdowns were scored by David Crowe, ADO Foxton, who tecovered a blocked kick and two more touchdowns by Bruce Diekert, who scored one on a 45 -yard pass from quarterback Keith Raymond. , Two point converts were also scored by Crowe and Dickert and a single was kicked by Ian Mont- gomery. The defence, led by Doug In- glis, put out a great team effort and held the Clinton attack to small yardage, The Juniors first league game was played last Thursday, when again the Mustangs tasted vic- tory by defeating Listowel 20 to 1. —Dave Stapleton Senior Mustangs lose opener The Senior Mustangs lost their first league garne 36-7 here last Thursday against a superior Lis- towel team. The Listowel team had a very solid team that featured ball con- trol. Very few long gains were achieved by their offense but they seldom gave up the ball except, after they scored. The Madill Mustangs seemed determined to give the game away as they received penalty after penalty. Offside ,penalties hurt bath our offense and de- fense. The 'defensive team was hurt on several occasions by face - ink The Listowel quarterback lit- erally tore the pass defense apart with his pin -point passes.
