The team has improved 1Q0% since last year, as we brought home two wins compared to the one win last year. Wingham vs. Stratford North Western In the first game North West- ern began to lead 8-1 when Wingham burst forth, tied them, then won it 15-8. In the second game North Western again had the lead but Wingham won it 15-6. Wingham vs. Mitchell This was the only three game set we played. In the first game we were defeated 15-13 but in the second game we de- feated Mitchell 15-13. In the third we again defeated them 15 -10. In these games it was our team's serving that won us our glory. Wingham vs. St. Marys To us this was the game of the day as we knew if we want- ed to enter the finals we would have to defeat St. Marys. Though our girls put up a good fight they were defeated in two games, 15-5 and 15-10. Wingham vs. Seaforth The first game was won by Seaforth 15-3. In the second game Seaforth again won but it was very close as the score was 15-10. The final standings of the day was Stratford Central in first place, St. Marys second, Central Huron and Seaforth tied for third, Wingham and South Huron tied for fourth, Mitchell and Listowel were in fifth place and Goderich and Stratford North Western in sixth place. Congratulations to Mrs. Mac- Lennan and the girls on the team.

I would also like to thank our lineman, Julie Burke, and our scorekeeper, Diane Bauer for their help. Once again, to the delight of Wingham fans the Mustangs edged their arch rival, Goder- ich, 7-1 last Tuesday to enter the Huron-Perth football finals to be held in Exeter on Novem- ber 14. The players travelled to Goderich by bus with the cheer- leaders, a trip that would urge any team to victory! When they arrived at Goderich the field ,,tas covered with snow but this only made the Mustangs fight harder as both offense and defense revealed their superior- ity over the Vikings. Goderich started the scoring as they tackled a Mustang player in the end zone after a kick and led 1-0 at the end of the first quarter. From then on, the defense being hungry for Viking meat held them out- side Wingham territory for the rest of the game. In the second quarter it was time for the offense to shine and as in the last encounter with Goderich Doug Gibson scored a major. After taking an off tackle handoff from Monty Templeman, Doug dod- ged and mowed his way across the field and ran 85 yards for the TD making it 6-1 for Wing- ed to travel to Exeter on Tues- day to play a team unbeaten all season, but as seen last year with Listowel, no one is un- beaten unless they match skills with the Mustangs. Exeter Panthers win championship Wingham Mustang coach Bob Campbell thinks a fumble which resulted in a 35-yard touchdown run by Exeter was the turning point in the 16-7 loss to Exeter for the Huron- Perth Conference football championship on Tuesday. Played in ankle deep snow, the game quickly went in Ex- eter's favor with two converted touchdowns, one resulting from the fumble. The player who dropped the ball felt a little better when the slippery pig- skin eluded the grasp of four other players before Exeter's Nagel finally picked it up for the points. With the score 14-0 for Ex- eter, the Mustangs fought back and came through with a touchdown by Doug Gibson on a 45-yard run, followed by a successful convert by Neil Gow— ing. In the final half, neither team could muster any threat due to the sloppy condition of the field but Exeter did get close enough to kick two single points for the final score of 16-7. A zealous Art student went to a gallery and spent a bewild,, ered hour looking over abstract and cubist works, She was finally attracted to a painting consisting of A black dot on a field of white and. framed in brass, "How much is this?"she asked. "That'$ the light switch," she was told. ham at half time. Knowing that the game was being broadcast from the CKNX mobile unit the offense thrilled the fans with bone crushing tackles in the true sense of the word as a Viking fullback was carried off the field with a broken ankle after a gang tackle on behalf of the defense, a style which seems to be becom- ing popular with the defensive squad nowadays. With less than a minute to go and it being the last play in the third quarter, the Mustang offense elected on very short notice Randy McGlynn, the versatile right fullback for Wing- ham, to punt the ball. After a good hike from centre by Mur- ray Elston and a mighty wind- up Randy hoofdd a high and long punt into the Goderich end zone, where the Mustangs with lots of time to get down field, thanks to Randy, cream- ed the Goderich player for the last point in the game, making it 7-1, An outstanding factor r.,1 the game was the number of inter- ceptions by the Mustangs as they grabbed five Goderich passes. Another of the many wonder players, Robert Arm- strong, came off the sick list to intercept three very impor- tant passes which might have been disasters for Wingham. Bryan Walden, Mustang speed- ster and Murray Elston grabbed one interception each as they foiled the famed, now extinct, Viking passing attack.

H.S. Mr. Wilcox is not quite as plain and ordinary as most of us because he was born at Exeter, Devon, in England. He received some of his ele- mentary education there before coming to Canada in 1953. He attended high school at Strat- ford and Toronto, then pro- ceeded to the University of Western Ontario where he ma- jored in English. This led him right along the highway to Wingham, where he is now teaching English to grade nine and ten students. (Says W.D. H.s, has good reputation -- 3 cheers!) I think Mr. Wilcox likes our school system. He attend- ed a school with prefects and believes this system is a good idea. "What about the 6-day school?" I asked. "Entertain., ing," was his brief reply -- apparently, he comes in Mon- day mornings and wonders what day it is! (He's not alone, I'm sure.) When I asked the young professor why he chose to teach, he said, "I ran out of other ideas," This isn't really it -- Mr. Wilcox wants to heap others and this is one way of doing so. He remarked that he was "crazy about T. V, sets in classrooms." "Aha!" I thought, "this guy likes baseball, football etc.." Not really -- he supports T.V. as a teacher and believes that this is what the future w ill bring. Judging by the ties the wears I was sure that Mr. Wilcox approved of today's fashions. "No, I hate today's fashion's! I like long skirts -- right down to the ankles." "Why?" "Girls would look better." One more question. "Do you have any pet peeves?" (A Moment in thought) "KIDS!" Well, on that final note, I'd like to wish Mr. Wilcox good luck in his future endeav- ours, whatever they may be. Are you with me?
