CLINTON - The smell of fresh paint and
sawdust signal that the sets have almost
been completed and that the curtain is about
to go up on Central Huron Secondary
School's seventh annual Christmas produc-
tion. The labor of many hours by actors and
crew members is about to be tested in a
public performance of Fred Carmichael's
three act farce entitled Exit The Body.
Plan to reserve November 20 at 7:30 p.m.
so that you may attend the performance.
The plot of this five male and five female
production involves the story of a woman
mystery writer who has rented a New
England house to rest and work on a new
novel. Unknown to her, the house is also a
rendezvous point for some stolen jewels.
The focal point of the interior set is a closet
which opens onto a living room and into a
library. In the closet is found a body which
promptly disappears only to be succeeded
by a second body. Just the kind of thing you
need to have happen while on vacation in a
strange house. The hunt for the stolen jewels
reaches a climax at 2 a.m. when four
couples, unknown to each other, turn up to
search. To see the resultant series of
hilarious exits and entrances is worth the
price of the ticket alone. From the opening
laugh to the final line, this play is
guaranteed to make even the most staid au-
dience cry with laughter.
As is the tradition with all Christmas pro-
ductions by the Drama Club, this play sees
the debut of several new actors. Laura
Fowlie plays the part of Lillian, a
mischievous friend of Crane's who has
recently married Lyle, played by Andrew
Dunn. Linda Hearn has the role of Jenny,
the half-wit hired housekeeper whose antics
are guaranteed to spark laughter. Ran-
dolph, played by Colin Thomas, and Helen,
played by Lauralee Johnston, are amateur
crooks out to learn the whereabouts of the
stolen jewels. Crane, played by Tanja
Grillmayer, is a famous mystery writer
seeking rest and relaxation with her compa-
nion and secretary Kate, played by Kendra
Papple. Dave LaTour plays Vernon, the
local Justice of the Peace, dog catcher, and
sheriff all rolled into one hilarious
character. The victim of amnesia, Philip,
played by Paul Taylor, wanders onto the
property and begins his journey of self
discovery right in the midst of a classic
chase scene. Finally, the last to make his
appearance is Tony LaTour who plays the
part of Crane's husband, Richard. He left an
important conference just to be with Crane
but never expected to be hit over the head
and placed in a closet.
Residents of Clinton and area have been
enthusiastic supporters of the Drama Club
in the past. The hugely successful year end
Dinner Theatre productions over the last
four years have been increased attendance
each year and great compliments directed
to the students. Please reserde some time
this Friday evening and come out to support
some new young acting stars on the stage at
Central Huron. Marvelous things are hap-
pening in our public schools. Drama at Cen-
tral Huron is proof.

Clinton 2 - Seaforth 1 6
Ocotober 31 saw the season opener against
the home team Seaforth I in a game
originally planned for late November.
With several games already under their
belt, the Seaforth team proved to be a tough
challenge for the Clinton boys.
Entering the third period with a 2-1 lead
for Seaforth, hopes were high that Clinton
might succeed. However, by period end,
Seaforth had found the net four times, Clin-
ton only once.
Goal scorers for Clinton were Paul
Vandendool and Mike Hohner, both
unassisted.
Clinton 9 - Mitchell 2
Clinton Atom A's outshot a keen Mitchell
home team on November 7 38 to 12, for their

provided many shots on net by both
defencemen and forewards.
