There are ten big reaeOns, and they're all the same; Homework in one; subject, not twice, .not thrice, not quadrupled, but ten times; Why ten? Now there's flr good question, but on to the next tale of woe: Ron is the victim this time. On the same morning that he was sent to the back of the . room so of- ten that he ahnost went there auto- matically the next time he entered that room, somebody (who should know) said, "The only thing that's missing is Ron's head," in comment on• Ron's brilliant statement: "Some- thing is missing!" delivered in tones of awe-struck horror when he no- ticed that a text book, or some other equally inconsequential article was no longer on his desk. ° Wonder what it feels like to be walking around without one's mahogany cube? Here's another "tale of woe," on- ly on a 'wholesale scale. Easter ex- aminations come early this year; they start on March 4, or so the ex- am timetable posted today announc- ed. (Correct me if I'm wrong, all you early "crammers"). Last Friday morning in Assembly things really happened in a very newsworthy manner. First, Peggy Willis, our talented pianist, who plays all the Assemblies, departed from the regularroutine to act as "talent." (Friday assembly is talent day, when a student performs for the school). Peggy played Padarewski's Minuet, and it is all too rarely that we are so entertained. Cheers for the tal- ent committee who arranges our Fri- day morning entertainments so well! To top off the assembly, Zeke, who operates the lantern, and who choos- es the hymns for each assembly, ded- icated. Friday morning's hymn, "Drink To Me Only," to Miss Hall, popular S.H.S. teacher, whose engagement re- cently was announced. We've had cheers 'for the talent committee, now how about one for Zeke! Oops! More Friday morning do- ings! But this, strictly speaking, was Friday noon -hour. For some un- known reason, some of the country girls got. the idea that they'd like to play hockey. So, with sticks and a puck borrowed from the boys, they staged a hockey game in the Friday noon -hour. The • teams were called Kinburn and Walton, doubtless re- ferring to the. home "towns" of the players. After a good many minutes of floundering, falling and shrieking, .Kinburn won 8-5. Both the score and the fact that Kinburn won were ra- ther indefinite, so don't pay too much attention to them. A few decorations are still hanging on from the big dance; the stage dec- orb.tions are in the process of being dismantled, and Miss Hoare's room still has a festive air with red -and white streamers on the windows, and nobdoy has, as yet, had the heart to erase Patsy's and Marie's art work from the blackboards. 'The auditor- ium looks like the Easter exam re- sults will—scrawny—since its cargo Of streamers, tissue paper and cotton, etc., has been taken down. It was a heartbreaker, wasn't it? It took two weeks of planning and about 100 man - hours'of work to put the decorations down in about two periods the Mon- day onday dnbrining after the dance. Oh, well, it was 5urelg. worth It. A few odds and pride: The "pass - the -shoe" gag, always an evergree4 in the practical joke line at S.H.S., was pulled un one Joan, and a varier tion of it, "pass -the -wallet" was tried onanother girl of the same name -- but with a variation. A picture was traded for one in the wallet some- where in its travels, unknown to the owner until she got the wallet back. Might it be that a picture of one member of the Second Form "brother act" was involved? 1111111111111111111111111111 Barclay Square Stratford RY FRIDAY: Roy Thompson RY SATURDAY: Johnny Petrie EVERY TUESDAY: Don Robison a n d '•:.His ; CKNX Ranch Boys. S.H.S. finished off 'its basketball schedule in Wingham Wednesday af- ternoon in a fair-to-middiin' way. The Seaforth junior boys won 31-26, and Seaforth girls lost 33-14. In the boys' game, Irwin of Wingham was. high scorer with eight points, and Midis of Seaforth was next with sev- en. The game teas rough, as compar- ed with most junior basketball games with 29 fouls called, 17 against Wing - ham and 10 against Seaforth. The fouls were well distributed, however, and only one player, Riehl, of Wing - ham, was sent o: for the, limit of five. In the girls' game it was Wingham all the way, and the winners were never behind. The local girls 'made a good showing against a very much taller and rangier team, although on occasions it appeared that Seaforth girls were playing against seven Winghamites, counting the referee. It was only a game anyway. Follow- ing are the line-ups: Seaforth Boys—Beebely 6, McC11 re 4, H. Johnston 5, I. Johnston 2, Dale 0, McKindaey 4, Bolton 0, Hackwell 3, Mills 7, Blanchard 0—Total 31.

Was it planned, or did it just happen, that Gordy sat beside "Ikie" in the bus on the trip to, Wingham? TOWN WHISPERINGS BY ;,LEE -NEE IN THE REALM OF SPORTS We believe the fans missed a real hockey game when there was but a small crowd to *see the Midget play last Saturday night. It was a close game and the Seaforth team held their own against the fast -stepping Clinton aggregation. The score was five -all. On Tuesday night the Mid- gets defeated Wingham 11-4. We hope all clubs have registered their players, as W. A. Hewitt, Secre- tary of •the O.H.A., issued a reminder to all membership clubs that Feb. 10 was the final day for registration of players in all series. From what we can gather in regard to the coming semi-final playdowns of Group 6, Intermediate 'W, a meet- ing was held in Clinton recently, but things are very indefinite, although Seaforth had a scheduled semi-final piaydown game for last night (Thurs- day).

Did you know that Paisley has an ice surface 76 by 175 feet, two sheets of curling ice, curlers' club rooms, two hockey dressing rooms, two skat- ers' dressing rooms, lunch bar. offi- ces and press box, all on the ground floor? The building will be steam - heated. On the second floor are the Canadian Legion and Boy Scouts' quarters, with an assembly room 28 by 60 feet, linking the two. Seating accommodation has been arranged for 1,200 hockey fans, while another 800 can find standing room. These will be some of the things hockey fans will see on St. Valen- tine's evening, Saturday, when Toron- to Marlboros meet an all-star aggre- gation in a fitting opening of Pais- ley's new war memorial community centre. Congratulations, hockey fans in Paisley, on your fine effort and suc- cess! It is our hope that Seaforth will some day have a memorial cen- tre, but with more facilities for a real community centre.
