Mention was made of organiz,

of this sort have been attempted,

they should be quite successful,
judging by the interest up to now.
Also in eleventh period Friday a
meeting of the Students' Council
took place. It was decided to buy,
a combination radio -record player
for the school's, own use, and some
records. For a very long time, both
the boys' and girls' dressing rooms
have been lacking in mirror space.
At the meeting it was decided to
purchase two new mirrors, one for
each room.
Open House is definitely set for
the evening of April 29 at the High
School. There will be various dis-
plays of the .students' work in most
class rooms, and there will be sev-
eral entertainments and displays
in the auditorium. There will be,
for the students only, a dance af-

fterwards. In other years, that stip-
ulation "for students only," has
been made, but sad to say ever so
many people, who couldn't by any
stretch of the imagination be con-
sidered studerlts, have stayed for
the students' dance. This sort of
thing is little, but a nuisance, for
it causes overcrowding and ruins
the plans for lunch. This time,
let's have this students' dance just
that!
Open House isn't the only event
scheduled for the 29th; the other
is. of course, Grade XIII examina-
tions, which begin on that day.
'Nuff said.
The annual Cadet inspection is
Om next major event after Open
House; the date is not known yet,
`an it will be in about a month's
time. Meanwhile, the boys are
drilling and learning signalling and
first aid in eleventh period classes.
The bugle band is blossoming forth
again, and has taken to the streets
around the school for practices.

This Thursday afternoon a base-
ball tournament was held at the
school. Since this was written be-
fore the tournament was over, or
even begun. we don't know who the
.winning team was, or any other
particulars. However, if the wea-
ther holds, it should be a good af-
ternoon of sport.
In Assembly Wednesday morn-
ing. the results of the latest elec-
tion were announced. The students
were asked to choose the one
among them whom they considered
to be outstanding for Ieaders'hip
qualities, in athletics, and in acad.
emits. Ron Sill.s, that handsome
debonair hunk of Grade 13 man,
was selected. The London Free
Press, for several years, has spon-
sored this in most of Western On-
tario secondary schools. Ron, with
others similarly chosen from other
schools, will tour the Free Press,
CFPL, and the University, and his
picture and an interview will ap-
pear on the Free Press sports page
shortly. Watch for it;, it isn't ev-
ery clay you get boy pin-ups!' (Won-
der whether it'll be a Tartan pose
•or just a striking profile!—Ah, that
schnozzola! !) All kidding aside,
the school's congratulations go to
Ron—and he deserves them. Yes,
sir—nyouse is' a good• boy, Denny!"
Ooops.—there we go again.
Also in Assembly, the talent en-
tertainment was Ann Feeney, who
played several piano selections.
Also Wilma McLean played a.nd

it was the .pant ... the pre-
sent was here—..Spring.
In this dreamy mood we east- on
a grassy bank as the sun beat down
while we languidly fished in a
sparkling pool, Then we imagined,
we were sitting in a softball stead;
munching a tasty hot-dog, watch-
ing the batter hit a clean single
into centre field. The scene chang-
ed to autumn sport, and eve saw
the hunters. taking down their guns
for their annual hunting trips,
Again the scene changes and
brings usr to winter, and hockey,
and we can well imagine we saw
the new Memorial Recreation Com-
munity) Centre and Arena opening
its •dbors for winter, sport. It, was,
a great scene and: a great day—
the first day of Spring!
Speaking of the Community Cen-
tre reminds ifs that the initial
meeting was to have been held this
week, but due to other activities,
Mayor Keating informed, us that it
will be held next week.
At a recent meeting of the Ath-
letic Club, Jack (Fat) Wright was
again named manager of the sen-
ior softball team. Jack and the
team did well last year, and
rumours have it that the team will
be much stronger tills season.
Acdording to reports, the Wing -
ham Softball Association 'has or-
ganized for the summer months. R.
A. Coutts was re-elected president.
It is planned to operate as many
teams in the W.O.A.A. as possible,
with special attention given to the
minor series where the youngsters
will be given a chance to develop.
The Senior "A" Club, known as the
Mercurys, will again operate this
season.
We don't know whether the
Legion -sponsored juvenile softball
teams will enter any W.O.A.A.
group or not, but we would like to
see an entry the same as Wingham
is doing., what about this, Legion
Sports Officer?
We were sorry to learn this week
that our friend, Jim MacDonald,
will not be able to handle the .girls'
softball team this season. Jim felt
that pressure of business would
not permit him sufficient time to
look after the team. Fans will re-
call the fine showing that Jim's
team made last year, and the work
of Don Woods, and it is hoped that
the girls will find another sponsor
Before the season opens.
While other teams are already
organizing and making plans for
the summer activities, we would:
like to mention here that the In-
dustrial League should be getting
ready. Last year it was rather late
and was the cause of the schedule
and playoffs not being played. Or-
ganize early and thus give your-
selves time for playoffs. We would
like to see last year's teams back
again.
The Western Ontario Athletic
Association meeting will be held in
Wingham on Wednesday, April 20,
at 8 p.m.; when plans will be laid
for the coming aball season. It has
been suggested that several new
teams will seek admission to the
league, which will mean a bumper
entry. .Seaforth will be represent-
ed by several of the Athletic As-
sociation executive and by the
chairman, Norman MacLean of the
softball committee.
Since there- isn't ajnuch sport to
report this week, we are forced to
close this Column with •little news.
However, we do want the sport
fans to keep discussing the new
Memorial Recreation Centre and
Arena. and to keep in mind that
this will be a busy summer in all
lines of sport. It may be softball.
baseball or football, but no matter
what the game is, the boys will
play it as it should be, and when
played this way the fans, as well
as the players. willstill realize that

T;Amited and he advise& that the
latest type of •'dehydrartion equip-
_ment has been purchased in the
United States. Close coo -operation
is .being received from the out-
standing authorities in Canada and
the United States in the field of
dehydration.
The plant to be dehydrated is ent
at its peak of nutritionalgoodness
and processed immediately. Wea-
ther is no longer a serious handi-
cap with modern matchinery, The
Products will be marketed as
'Greenleaf -dehydrated alfalfa meal
and cereal grasses. Through the
•scientific process of dehydration,
alfalfa, clovers and cereal grasses
contribute the maximum of vital
feed elements (vitamin A, B, E and
protein), so essential in 'making
balanced rations for all livestock
and poultry'—economically and ef-
ficiently.
Farmers in our district will find
a good market for their clover,
alfalfa, etc., bringing not only high
cash returns but will become inde-
pendent of adverse weather condi-
tions which sometimes spoil- the
best crops.
This dehydration will be carried
out in close co-operation with 'Mr.
James M. Scott, of Seaforth. Some
of the first dehydration will be
done on Mr, Scott's farm from the
alfalfa and clover grown there.
Mr. Dent expects to move to Sea -
forth some time in May, but should
any farmers be interested in more
information, Mr. Scott will be
available to give all the necessary
explanations regarding the process
of dehydration and the value of
this material for feeding purposes,
as well as its importance for our
district.—(Advertisement) .
