Curdy School nearly turned it-
self inside -out to greet its ver-
sion of the Grey Cup classic on
Friday, December llth. For
about two weeks, everyone had
been existing on the tangy spice
of Grey Cup excitement.
Started four years ago by the
schdol's vice-principal, Mr. John

of the school's major events. Pa-

rades, drum majorettes, cheer
leaders, and, of course, the tra-
ditional excitement made this
Friday a memorable one.
Practices, tryouts, and final
games all led up to the big day.
Guided mostly by our school mu-
sic teacher, Mr. Shippey, the
drum majorettes carie up to
give an excellent display of their
work. Out of four teams, two,
the Tiger Cats and the Blue
Bombers, survived the gauntlet
to be the final contestants for
the championship honours.
Finally, after what seemed to
be infinite waiting, Friday fin-
ally rolled around. After a truly
thrilling game the Blue Bomb-
ers came out on top as the win-
ner in the best of three series.
As each touchdown was worth
six points, the game ended 42-24
in favour of the Blue Bambers.
The scorers for the Blue Bomb-
ers included Bob Grayer and Pe-
ter McLeod with two touchdowns
apiece and John Loch, Ken An-
derson and Fred Elwgren with
one apiece. For the Tiger Cats,
Ron Ellis registered two touch-
downs and Glen Latour and Stu-
art Symes scored one apiece.
AIL in all, as mentioned before,
it was a never-to-be-forgotton
day. Good sportsmanship was
displayed all around on the
field. Incidentally, due to poor
weather and lack of seating fa-
cilities, the "field" was the
school auditorium which was
suitably decorated for the occa-
sion. Contests at half-time in-
cluded the best float won by Va-
lerie Herbert and Karen Walker
for originality in construction,
and a hula -hoop contest won by
Sharon Carpenter.
The lucky draw was won by
Sandra Brown. From the view-
point of a spectator (which I
was) it was a spectacular day,
equalled by none.
