BRYANS) T h e magnificent decorations which were so carefully placed had disappeared tracelessly by Mon- day. Students returned to a dull, drab school with few hopes of any more such excitement until the Easter exams. After the dance the gym looked like a battlefield. Crepe paper streamers, which took days to arrange, settled slowly to the floor in every direction. The hot-air which had been supplied by P.T. classes to blow up the bal- loons had all escaped in very fe* seconds, leaving the ripped re- mains to hang limply. Paper and other debris littered the floor of the whole school. Saturday morning members of the clean-up crew took over to move desks back to original rooms, to sweep up, and finally, to eat and drink any remaining food and pop. Thus ends the annual "At Home" for another year. The lunch committee served a delicious and petite lunch.

The check -room com- mittee checked and redelivered some 260 coats in record time, with 'very few cases of confusion. There was an excellent attend- ance, good music, large mirrors in the powder room, and very soft chairs in the lounge, The many congratulations re- ceived by the Students' Council and staff indicated that it was through and through a successful evening. Reports have not yet been re- ceived regarding the financial sit- uation! Someone suggested tardily that the theme of the decorating should have been Robby Burns, since the dance fell on the 25th.

With only three more games for our team, w'e still have not first position secure, as we. have played two more games than. Sarnia, and with Sarnia gaining a win from Owen Sound our position is less secure, as they still have 10 points to go and we have six. With one more win for us, the best Sarnia could do would be tie us if they win all their games. Our chief worry now, of course, is finances, and we are hoping for a good turnout to our Booster Par- ty on Thursday night. $ $ The minor teams are staging a minor hockey night on February 7, when all local minor teams will play against all-star , Stratford teams.

Kitchener will be our opposition, and you can be assured of a good place betweeme, with the nrthe nsecond tation tak- ing d third period. Since so many can not be con- tacted personally for donations to this fund, we have decided to pass a blanket along the boards before the start of the second, period, so all fans may have an opportunity to contribute.
