THE fUPON EXP TOR, W's- d!! 1 BY PogiciA RIMIVI][ g played. In most cases the U st year when the kid. ;s Of Seaforth fou!ad out that thy►, would be competing against the kids of our sister town West Branch: there was. much ez, ct enufltI Last :0 - .day the same eaeitemeft ;arrived in Seafotth as, two. bus. loads full, of laughing "Michiganders" drove into the 5DHS parking lot, Many friendly waves and "hellos" were exchanged by the par- ents and kids of Seaforth, and the West Branch kids, as the. two buses Were being un- loaded.. w Afternothree daysfo1rom getting ba kthe kids Branch, I ' think everyone learned a lot about our sister town. For instance, as soon as the West Branch kids got off of the bus, they were shocked, at the size of. our high school, They said that their high school was much larger but they also have. many more students from other schools, As well as, a high school for ninth graders. to grade: 12 students, West Branch has a junior .high for, students; in••grade seven and eight. The junior high is in a special section of the public school : Unless a grade six student has a good excuse for being in .thejunior high school section they will be, in: a lot oftrouble I Over the weekend ;there were many basketball games Bob Regele, 510.00 from ' Hoggart .Transport Steve Glanville, $5.00 from Ryans Drying;: Bill Glanville, 55.00 from Kirkby, McCallum & McClure Drainage;' Chalene Glanville, hat from Bosman Fuels; Rob Cook, $10.00 from Doug & Norma Riley; Mary Ann McNichol, 55.00 from Stewart.

Smiles Confuscius say: "If thine enemy wrong thee, buy each of his children a drum:" *.*••*. A Hollywood producer was planning a war movie: "This. will be an extravaganza to end all extravaganzas,'' he, sighed'. "We'll use two full. armies -,5,000' men on one side and 5,000 men on the other." ' ff d But how can we a or a Seaforth team had the advan. cage because team members. were so much taller than the West, Branch, ;team. There was quite an age difference but still the Seaforth, girls 'WI boys were rouch. ;taller.. t o ant. they diff::rEnt,: ' hand and weleetned her; ThenShe gave our town first Wi. est Branch may have larger schools but any of. the West Branch kids that I met were shocked at the size. of ,our ;houses, I think that is. theYbnlit a McDom!l I s ;ea appall in the Lucan area near T,onden, • If you were to ride out two miles out of Seaforth, on Your bike you most likely would end up standing in front of a barn' but if you rode the same teens, ee Although the Seaforth teams beat the West Branch tearrS. in quite a few games, the West Branch team has a great ability at playing, bask* etball. This is because the schools. in West Branch emphasize basketball in grades six-, seven and eight much more than we du in: Seaforth, FRIENDLY AIR Even though: Seaforth and. West Branch: Were in firm competition, there was a lot of friendliness ii the air, As 1 watched the basketball games in the high school gym, I noticed how nice the teams were to, .earh other, In, one case the West Branch girls needed two more girls to play basketball, With. no hesitation :two Sea - forth 'girls volunteered to play for the West . Branch team. 1 found that ,I was coMpeting with, the girl who was staying at my house in our own little. game. As we 'walked down the street we tried to out do our town's friendliness by giving each other examples of how nice. people " are. 1 have to admit that she was winning until I introduced her, to a friend of .mine and his children and he shook •her because Seaforth has such big old houses. It is not a surprise to think that Sea - forth las more than 20 centu.:. ` old houses *round town. Also buildings such as the library are much larger here than those in. West Branch. GREAT DANCERS Last Saturday night, when the recreation committee held a dance and get together in the , arena, the. Seaforth kids were amazed with 'the way the West Branch Kids danced! This was because. West Branch has a disco open to any age from Wednesday to Fnday nights. Mostteenagers in Seaforth can .never go to a dance like 'the one on 'Satur- day night;. because they are. restricted to. teenagers 19 yearsold and up. Another difference be tween Seaforth. and West Branch is the location. Sea: forth is in a much more rural area than West Branch. West Branch has a city less than 15 miles away, there- fore they have a McDonald's and malls in town. If anyone ever built a McDonald's or a mall in the Seaforth area they, wouldn't make nearly as. much money as they would'if distance out. of West Branch you might end up in a new sub-divlsio .. Over the. weekend we ditt learn a lot about W! Branch and the people who, ive there. I'm sure :everYoae' who had someone stay :at their home showed the aarne ;hospitality as they showed us ;last' :year: when we visited their town, I am also sure that :I; did, not cover all .; differences there are bet, ween: $ f' th• and West. Branch. If you had someone: stay at your home from West Branch, over theweekend; write a letter, story or draw a picture and send it to: Kids Teens and In-Betweens ;c/o Patricia Rimmer Box 278 Seaforth, Ontario,, Your ideas will be helpful and appreciated.
