They usually have bloodshot eyes, clammy hands and wear masses of buttons saying "Eat Beef". They hide in feedlots and carry double-barrel shot- guns and backup pitchforks. Their homes are barricaded and a Bennett buggy is their major transport means. The public is asked not to try to capture one of these vigilantes but inform your localMPP. Bankers are to be very cautious about eat- ing specially prepared steak, roast and hamburger as the vigilantes have close ties with butchers. A reward of five pounds of free beef is of- fered for information leading to the capture of a vigilante.

' Grapevine 192 Josephine Street, Winghani By Grace Schmidt . A very successful Grade Nine Night was held here at F. E. Madill, despite the fact it was held on an unlucky "Friday the thirteenth" of November. Approximately 140 students came out for this event. The "minor Inners" enjoyed playing Siamese soccer, blind volleyball and running through an obstacle course, as well as all those other "stupid little games", said organizers. The grade 12 drama class as well as the drama club put on several small skits, per- formances, and the one act play entitled, "Pen of My Aunt". The cheerleaders went through some of their rou- tines as another source of entertainment for the "ankle -biters–. The Lucknow band was on hand, and, as usual, did one of its very energetic and lively performances. The dance in the evening started at seven. It ran until 10 o'clock so the little Grade Nines could go home and watch "Dallas" to see what J.R. is up to. Nathan Peel, student council president, also reported some interesting activities carried out by the Grade 13 students and organizers of this event which took place after the dance. Due to lack of column space, these activities can- not be accounted for, which is too bad since I'm sure it would have made some interesting reading. Also, despite freedom of the press, these highlights can Still not be featured without breaking a few censorship laws. It's hard growing up. So many questions So few answers. Why? When? what?
