The townspeople have seen the last of the "strawberry box, bow -bedecked" and unusually dress- ed specimens, at least until neat year. The Grade Niners are to be congratulated on their dine sense of humor and good sportsmanship. If anyone could come through Fri- day night smiling, they deserve credit indeed. Having ,been permitted to dance for about one peaceful hour, the freshmen were sent outside the gym, ordered to remove shoes and stockings and their eyes blindfold- ed. The senior pupils then led them back into the gym, where they were forced to place their hands in- to cold sticky porridge, while long cold strings of spagetti were wound about their necks,, giving the Ben - CEMENT NOW IN STOCK !

Then followed an industrious twenty minutes of scrubbing—students as well as the gym floor. This was not the end however. Remember, there was still the promise of an electric chair, quite the rigging, don't you agree, Jack? Eva Lillico, Jack Croz- ier and James Massey having no last words for friends or relations were electrocuted by the execu- tioner, Wayne Ellis. The current was two ice -cubes down the back and a board with a nail en the end which caused quite a shock, though not electrical. A row of saucers filled with milk were set before some girls; when the signal was given, they were to lap it up, like, pussy cats. Ruth Teall was the thirstiest kitty, Being such a beau tiful fall evening, with a nice big moon outside, called for a few ro- mantic proposals. The girls, Mar- ilyn McPhee and Helen McGonigle, were seated on a bench on either side of the stage, while the boye, Jack McIlwain and Bill Flannigan, 6n bended knee, were to see which could make the better proposal. It's surprising what you can do when you have to, if you permit your imagination to wander. Mar- ilyn McPhee and Bill Flannigan re- seived the prize for the most amus- ing (for me) and romantic propos- al. Doughnuts and cokes followed, and so ended a very memorable evening, one not likely to be for- gotten for some time, at Least by Grade Nine.

There was no score in the first half, but in the third quarter Doug Stewart made a spectacular thirty- five yard run around the left end, leaving a stream of Goderich play- ers sprawled over the field, and carried the ball to within the one - yard line, and passed to Ron Ren- nie, who scored the &rat goal of the season, The convert was off- side, but so was Goderich's after they made their touchdown in the last quarter. The boys fought hard in the last seven minutes of the game to keep that even score of 5-5, and so the game ended. Ac- cording to the timetable, the next game is scheduled at Clinton, so let's do as well, if not better, eh team?
