This was the effort of Mr. Greenside's art class. Of course, the compulsory red color worn by the dancers added 'that "Valentinish" atmos- phere to the setting. There were two spot dances, one of which was won by Connie Wright and Ferg Rowland, and the other by Greta Pfaff and Paul Stapleton. At intermission, lunch of cokes,, and doughnuts was the menu. In- cidentally, although the food' was advocated to be free of charge, the Students' Council ended up charg- ing everyone ten cents. The rea- son for the change was due to the average crowd and the orchestra's fee. t $ Grade X -CD's, "The Escape," was theintriguing drama culture for the. afternoon assembly on Friday.. The "play" began on a bright day and ended in a dark, smoky, candle -light night-club, which is better known as Fern- ando's Hideaway. In the play, Ilene Kendrik, as the heroine, was trying to escape from East Berlin to the Western section when, alas! her passport was either lost or stolen, From this point the series of events moved swiftly and rug- gedly. A man, her rescuer, was pushed out of a window (it was the basement window) by the vil- lian. But in Fernando's Hideaway the culprit "got his" and then, as allj stories should end, it finished happily. The hero and heroine be- came free of East Berlin and de- parted for the land of the free— Canada—to live happily ever af- ter. This Friday's assembly is to be pftt on by the students of X -AB and, perhaps, some new unnoticed talent will appear, allowing Mr. Cosford no problems with his own play. Question of the week: What "Mountie" in Fifth Form is your main interest, Agnes?

Desires 'Names of Consignees Given Directors of the Huron County Federation of Agriculture endors- ed a resolution, forwarded by the Stanley Township Federation, re- questing that farmers consigning livestock to community sales be compelled to give their names at the time of sale. The resolution further requested that this policy be instituted on • a province -wide. basis. A second resolution, which was received from Howick, concerned the shortage. of feed oats in this part of the country. Directors en- dorsed the resolution which sug- gested a change be made on the basis of quota system from bush- els to pounds. The resolution stated that belief that Western Canadian farmers were delivering wheat rather than oats, because of the difference in weight. The women's committee of the federation informed the meeting that it would request the township federations for assistance in rais- ing their share of the Agnes Mac- Phail Memorial Fund for a schol- arship in sociology. President Douglas McNeil, Gode- rich, was appointed to attend the annual meeting of the Ontario Hog Producers' Association. Directors agreed to co-operate in the, canvassing for the forth- coming mass chest X-ray survey, commencing May 14. HAY TWP.

THE LEGISLATURE (By JAMES SCOTT) For the first time in many years, the opening ceremonies of the Ontario Legislature were at- tended by the Justices of the Supreme Court of Ontario—an old custom which had fallen intg dis- use. After the reading of the Speech from the Throne by Hon. L. 0, Breitbaupt, Lieutenant -Gov- ernor of Ontario, the House got down to routine business and in the first week fifty-two new bills received their first reading. At the same time. the Provincial 'Aeasurer, 'Pana Porter, an- nounced that special school grants would be increased from $4.00 to $6.00 per pupil for the coming year. The new member for Renfrew South, James Maloney, opened the debate on the Speech from the Throne, followed by C. H. Lyons, of Sault Ste. Marie. By the end of the first week, the Standing Committees of the House had been struck. In this connection, the Leader of the Op- position, Farquhar Oliver, called attention to the fact that the Com- mittee on Public Accounts had been reduced in number from 52 to 14 and suggested that such an important committee ought to be kept up to strength. The Premier, Hon. Leslie Frost, agreed and lat- ter thirty-five members were add- ed. At the beginning of the second week, Mr. Frost paid a• tribute to "the spirit of true sportsmanship" of the Kitchener -Waterloo Dutch- men, the hockey team which re- presented Canada at the Olympic Games. In this regard. Mr. John Wintermeyer, the member for Wa- terloo North, asserted that the team had "demonstrated to those people, particularly behind the Ir- on Curtain, the spirit of 'good sprtsmanship in public games." Opening thedebate on the Speech from the Throne for the Opposition, Mr. Farquhar Oliver charged that the Government had sidestepped the most crucial pro- blems facing Ontario, namely: (1) It had taken no positive measures to establish a Provin- cial Hospital Insurarl'ce Plan. (2) It had not attempted to re- vamp "obsolete municipal legisla- tion" and reduce government in- terference in the affairs of the municipalities. (3) It had failed to work for a speedy completion of the Trans- Canada Highway which is now en- tirely in the hands of the Pro- vincial Government. (4) • It had not presented a work- able policy with respect to farm marketing. ' (5) It had failed to implement the recommendations of the Se- lect Committee on Reform Institu tions. (6) It bad not managed to cothe. to an agreement with the 1• ederat G.oreriiment for sharing tiie tltis`tS 6 title vh8y etit relief, {11'reat charg [C the l io, (Liberal Party had conveniently forgotten the charges of ."a high- way scandal" which it had raised during the June election. He as- serted that farm marketing legis- ation had to be referred to the Supreme Court of Canada for "ad- judication and clarification" bb fore he felt his Government could proceed. He stated that a hospital insurance scheme was so costly that it had to be considered very carefully before taking any action. 1 The liveliest session to date came when the Leader of the C. C. F, Party, Mr. Macdonald, con- tinued the debate on the Speech, which w a s continually in an: House which was continually in Mt uproar, Mr, 1Vlacdonald repeated his charges of undue brutality an4 political interference in the raz- ing of Reform Institutions. In a detailed reply, Hon. John Foote,. Minister of Reform Institutions denied each of Mr. l'Jacdonald's. charges and stated that Ontario is well along in its program for ad- vanced reform legislation. Thus far, the House has con- sidered seventy-six new bills. Among these are provisions to in- crease Crown Witness fees from $3 to $4 per day, far reaching changes in the Insurance Act, an Act to establish the Lakehead Col- lege of Arts, Sciences and Tech- niology and a change in the Mother's Allowance Act reducing the period of desertion froin one year to six months. The debate on the Throne Speed was continued by John Yaremko, Toronto, and Robert Boyer, Mus- koka.
