"The tumult and the shouting dies, the captains and their teams depart" and another,•a most successful Young Canada Week - comes to an end. "I was pleased to _see such nice pictures of Nip Whetsone and Guy .Emerson with the good write-ups for the occasion. The natives - and those of us who have lived in Goderich for about 20 years realize with pride, the work these two men have done for sports in this area. Goderich was known as a "Great Hockey Town" - at one time. I shouldn't say "one time" because for many, many years it was a very good hockey centre, 'but in the last 10' years you can see that it has been fading considerably. I suppose this is a natural turn of events with the coming of TV, and the many other diversions -something has to give. With the interest shown last week and the parade of young hockey people, web can still hold with Goderich being a Great Hockey Town. This brings up the state of the arena! It comes as quite a shock to many people that the arena is such a. mess. I guess we just expected it to go on and on and not show the wear and tear it has, had. So many are "occasional fans" and expect the arena to still be looking .like new, and are greatly shocked by the angle of the seating and floor and the worn out "rest" rooms. •I'm afraid something HAS to be done and done right away to renew this edifice. • • You will be hearing a great deal about this now, a many people have known and have been trying for some years now, to have repairs and renovations made to `Sur arena. Weare fortunate to have some far sighted people on our council, today and the future of hockey, roller skating and a great many other activities for our youngsters is assured. I hope you will go and have a good look at the condition of --:our-sports palace it -you- are . t all in doubt about this - as e are going Go need the sun. • rt of. everyone to • get the changes • made and made at once. We will need a gro p such as the. '.ladies of t e Legion Auxilliary to he . on this project. I think hey are. the hardest working gals I know - and I mean wor BROWNIE'S DRIVE'= .1V.--- CLINT°ON BEECH STREET • (Near Clinton's New Comnitinity Centre) •OPENIN4s Thurs., April 3 Watch Next Week's Papers For Features. • They are ,now raising -money for the Bunny Bindle, John' Dixon of C1+tPL Radio, London talks about all the time.

ST. MARY'S SCOOP "UP WITH PEOPLE" The senior students of St. Mary's School met at their- seiool at 5:30 in order to attend the show "Up With People" in London. We travelled by bus and arrived at 7:15 p.m.. -With noses pressed against the bus windows we .approached the f, Beal Technical School. Finally we were split into groups a d we' selected seats in the auditorium. The time passed quickly and at 8:00 the clatter of feet' and .a but .of• wind brushed past us and'then the whole cast of "Up With People" was up on stage, For the next two hours the. auditorium rocked and Abe audience joined in with • enthusiasm. To- our dismay 10:00 p.m. approached too quickly. Then the clatter of feet and a burst of wind returned again as the participants of "Up With People" left the stage: On the way home in the bus we stopped for cakes and chocolate bars. ,We were grateful for bei -ng able to see such an excellent production. Grade 8 group "UP WITH PEOPLE" Our bus left for "Up With People!" in London at 5:30 on Friday night, March 14. On our ride to London on the bus every so often we would have silent periods when ".everyone would make no noise at at. An hour later we arrived in front of Beal Technical School in London. The "Up With People" cast began with the song "Dawning" and ended the first half with "Up With People." They started the second half with "Jacks" -a solo done by the drummer. When the show was supposedly over they played several encores for a finale. - When we were riding' back to Goderich everyone was singing with enthusiasm. Although- we arrived home late, we all had had a wonderful time. Grade 7 group OUR TRIP TO LONDON On Friday March• 14 the grades seven and, eights were able to attend "Up -'With• .:People" in o London. This was a special program put on by enthusiastic senior high school students. They represented 1'1 different nations. We went down by bus and got there at 7:15 p.m. With enthusiasm and vitality these teenagers entertained us for two hours with a full musical program. At intermission they came down into the audience to meet the people and sell records. After the show was over ,.a tired but an "Up With People" thinking group of St. Mary's students returned home. All thanks to Mr. Morrissey who made this trip possible.
