In a game played in the cold and rain, the Mustangs kept it close through two REMEMBRANCE DAY Hush your voices, bow your heads A moment of silence to remember the dead. To recall their courage; remember their pain As they realized they'd never return home again. I hush my voice, I bow my head I take some time •to remember the dead But I cannot remember; I cannot recall; I know nothing • of battles, nothing at all. So I think of how lucky I am to be me • And to live in this wonderful Canada... free. The freedom to grow, the freedom to change, The freedom to live in my • home on the range. And while I am thinking I begin to feel How cruel it was, how terrible and real. That those men lived, that those men died So that I could in peace and in freedom abide. I think of this gift, I think of this treasure, Which was bought for me at a cost beyond measure. 1 think of these things for I cannot recall, The great pain of war and the horrow of it all. —Bonnie Perry periods, trailing 14-12 at the half. However their offense ground to a halt in the second half and the final score was 28-12 for South Huron. • During the regular. season, Madill had compiled a record of five wins and one tie and the Mustangs went on to defeat perennially power- ful Goderich 15-6 in a semi- final game which also was played in a downpour .on a wet field. The team, .coached by Larry Lane and Murray McLennan, expressed ap- preciation to Zehrs and K- F'oods for providing pop and chips for the team party and also to Pepi's Pizza for the discounted pizzas.

If Prime Minister Brian Mulroney passed through Parliament a bill stating that every 18 -year-old male must serve two years of military training, what would their reactions be? For purely selfish reasons, the girls at Madill said "Forget ,, it,': and the majority of the male population tended to agree as they know now that war isn't all that glorious and "full of adventure and heroism". Some Madillers pointed out the fact of self defence. Better 'to be safe than sorry'? Maybe, but the fact Canada is so "anti -war" is what sets us apart from the other major nations. Also, I can't help but think, and our politicians agree, that one nuclear push of "the button" would finish the world as we know it, so what would we be preparing the armies for? Although today's gener- ation is so hesitant to get involved in militarism, we realize we owe a debt of gratitude to those who fought in the world wars, those who gave us the chance to decide. —Julie Stewart Remembrance Day service at Madill On November 9, 1984, F.E.
