The Political Scene
For the past two weeks nomina.-
tions and elections have_.been the
order of the day, and this year's
campaigning surpassed that of oth-
eryears by far; in noise, imaginer
tion and sheer zaniness. As an
example of the goings-on, one cam-
paign manager* was handling the
campaigns of two candidates for
the same office, and helping cut
on another's. Two candidates even
went as far as passing out chew-
ing gum to the student voters in
the hope of soliciting votes. The
campaign speeches ran the whole.
gamut from the quiet, serious type
to Wild Westerns and burlesque.
Following are the names of the
members of the Student Council
for 1948-40: President, Howard
Rockwell; vice-president, Mabel
Campbell; secretary, Mary Bos-
well; treasurer, Jim Chapman. The
Form representatives .are: Francis
Huisser, Grade XIII; Margaret
Stevens, Grade XII; Mary Lau
S'ilIs, Grade XI; George Shaw and
P. Brugger, Grade X; Keith Mc-
Donald and lone Watson, Grade
IX.
Elections were also held for the
Girls' Athletic Society, but due to
several duplications in office -hold-
ing, new elections had to be held
for the offices concerned, and
these results are not yet complete.
Nominations have been called for
the Boys' Athletic Society, but,elec-
tions have not been held yet.
The following five girls have
been elected cheer -leaders: Marie
Armstrong, Patsy Brugger, Lorna
Ellis, Elizabeth Shannon and Bar-
bara Wright.
Sports
Our local field day was held a
week ago today (Friday) and while
no records were broken, or even
dented, we had a lot of good in-
terest and keen competition, which
is, after all, the most important
thing about it.
Following are the names of the
individual champions: Girls, Sen-
ior, Ann De La Franier; Norma
Leeming, runner-up; Intermediate,
Ruth Keyes; Phyllis Boyes, run-
ner-up;;, Juniors Mary Lou Si11s,
Ione Watson, runner-up. Boys—
Senior, Francis Huisser; Bob Tra-
quair, runner-up; Intermediate, Jim
Chapman; Don Dale, runner-up;
Junior, Mervy7 Eyre; Douglas
Stewart, runner-up. •
On the basis of team scores, the
"Blue" team, captained by Francis
Huisser, won by 30 points. This
means that the "Red" team, cap-
tained by Ron Sills, willsponsor a
school party for the "Blues" in the
near future.
Next Tuesday, Oct. 4, is the day
of the big H.S.S.A. Track and Field
Meet, to be held in Goderich this
year. Seaforth's team has as good
a chance as any others, so if you
can come along, do so and root for

Of this league they. asked to enter

that one team front Seaforth had
to drop out, This ..team was split
up, 40(Ythere were, a few boys: who
did not'. get a chance to :play all
season because' of. this.
"Fair Play" next complains that
Brucefield had to play alkof their
games iii Seaforth.' This is not so,
and games in. Brucefield could have
been arranged by them if there
were suitable grounds. I think our'
diamond is quite suitable here,
compared with some mentioned.
Don't you, "Fair Play?"
"Fair Play" then beefs about the
Tiger's games here with Brucefield
It seems a game was called at the
end of four innings•; which Bruce -
field was leading, and would have
meant elimination for the Tigers.
The management of the teams
agreed to call the game off and
play at a later date, if BrucefteId
could get there on time (bar no
trains). This same night a Bruce -
field player had offered to pay for
the lighting of the park, claiming
they were refused permission. This
is absurd because the proper
authorities for►the lights were not
available. "Fair Play" insisted it
was light enough to play, and let
wanted the lights•. That's really
contradicting statements, wouldn't
you say, readers?
"Fair Play" goes on to say:
"What are the floodlights for in
Seaforth?" Well, anybody with
any knowledge of softball rules
and regulations would know they
are not for games that start in
the afternoon and run on into the
night. They are strictly for night
games. As far as any games be-
ing called it was merely to protect
against injuries of these boys on
either team, not because umpires
saw the chance to keep a Seaforth
team in for another try.
"Fair Play" then goes on to men-
tion that the Brucefield boys often
go to Seaforth without a coach, or
forced to trust Seaforth Umps (who,
volunteer' their time because Bruce -
field could not supply umps, claim-
ing they needed all help to save
their crops). If you will look back,
"Fair Play," you will find that
Brucefield had cancelled games at
Seaforth because 'of farm help
shortage and no complaints were
printed by Seaforth. Also "Fair
1�iap"'being •that'gou have so much
time for double column letters
about Seaforth, it may be a good
thing in some of your free time
to come along to Seaforth with
your boys as an adult, to guide
your club. Another thing, "Fair
Play," it didn't cost your club any-
thing to enter. The diamond, and
especially the equipment, was loan-
ed to the boys by the Seaforth
Legion without a tremendous roar
of beefs and complaints. Don't you
think you could do likewise? After
all, the boys aren't playing in the
American or National League yet
for any large stakes. So remem-
ber, "Fair Play":
If you keep cool
You'll never sweat,
An‘look how much further you'll
get!

and Follower; also a Lover of
"Fair Play"
