St, Marys Blanks Panthers
To Spoil Local Grid Debut
By DON FINKliEINER
South Huron g r i d d e r s lost
their first game of the 1953 sea
son when a hard-hitting, hard
working St. Marys team drubbed
the locals 11-0 in Exeter Wed
nesday
St. Marys proved to be too
much for the locals right from
the start. After recovering a
South
scored
kicked
second
sawed
with no change in the score,
In the third quarter, with Mar
tin carrying the ball, St. - Marys
pushed across another touch
down but the convert was block
ed by South Huron, thus making
the score 11-0.
The last quarter opened with
South Huron trying to get back
into the game, but they were
held off by the rugged St. Marys’
defence.
It certainly was not the locals'
day; fumbles were frequent, the
line didn’t hold well, and
backfield couldn’t seem to
up a good, pass defence,
n Monday, the team will
host here to the Palmerston foot
ball team. The game will begin at

Question Of
The Week
When and where were the
Armistrices signed ending Europ
ean hostilities in World Wars I
and II?
Where Did Hallowe’en Originate?
(Answer to last week’s question)
This was originally a pagan
superstition. The Teutons be
lieved that after death they came
back from Valhalla to visit their
old haunts aided by the autumn
winds. Ghosts were not popular
in those days and so prayers were
offered to the gods to recall the
spirits. Hence, we have the
pranks perpetrated on
e’en, the eve before AU
Day, the Christian saints
respect taking the place
pagan gods.

Home Ec Girls
Cater Banquet
By ANNA ROUTLEY
As a home project, four girls
of .the Grade 12 Home Economics
class chose one project in the
cooking field rather than in
crafts,
The girls, Perla Hern, Joanne
Mair, Sandra McKnight and Anna
Roufley, undertook to. cater to
the shop teachers banquet, held
on Saturday, October 17, in S.H.-
D.H.S.
Under the guidance pf Home
Economics teacher, Miss Kar-
tushyn, the girls planned the
menu, did the marketing, pre
pared the food and made other
arrangements that were neces
sary.
All work' that could be done
before the banquet was done
after school on Friday.
Anyone happening to look in
the Home Economics room Satur
day morning would have found
the girls hurrying and scurrying
from one job to another.
Four waitresses were selected
by the girls for serving tables.
They were Carol Fletcher, Ruth
Ann Jones, Marilyn Penhale and
Marilyn Ross.
The banquet was served in the
Home Ec. room at 12 o’clock.
Twenty-two teachers sat down to
tables cheerfully decorated with
centres of fall flowers and color
ed leaves.
One outstanding item on the
menu was the “Flapper Pie”
which was served for dessert and
many interesting comments were
made concerning it. (By the way,
for anyone interested in the re
cipe, it will be published in Mrs.
Steiner’s column soon).
The girls felt very satisfied
with their accomplishment of the
banquet as their home project.
