WHY I LIKE
BEING IN BROIES
By Sarah Middleton
I like being in Brownies
because you play games
such as "Fish in the Net"
and "Touch Tag" and have
lots of fun.
Most of my friends go to
Brownies. We wear a nice
unifom; it is brown with an
orange and white tie. We
sing songs and do crafts like
flowers and little baskets.
Brownies taught me to lie
kind to others and to lend a
hand. I help my mother by
tidying up my room and
vacuuming the kitchen floor.
Because of Brownies I got
to go to camp like Camp
Keewaydin. I like Brownies
very much.

SCOUTING News
By Andrew Kaufman
When we got` to the school
Marty gave us a sheet with
information about our
departure from Toronto In-
ternational
n-
ternational Airport. It
consisted of baggage check-
in procedure, passenger
check-in procedure, some
important reminders and
some handy tips about our
backpacks.
We will be leaving from
Toronto on the 30 to fly out to
Calgary and drive to Banff.
Marty is afraid of flying; so I
say to him: More accidents
happen in your bathroom
than in an airplane.
Therefore, never go to the
washroom during our flight.
In the second part of our
meeting we made a list of all
the things that we had put in
our backpacks. Then we
unpacked our backpacks to
see what we had forgotten.
After adding the forgotten
things onto our lists we
packed all equipment up

"Fire on Ice" collective
creation from n° original
script .by Keith R.oulston, is
even more local in in-
spiration. This play opens
Aug. 4 and tells the legend of
Howie Morenz, the Mitchell -
born hockey star who made
his way to the Hockey Hall of
Fame playing for the
Montreal Canadiens.
The final two plays of the
season are a little more
current in perspective. "The
Tomorrow Box" which opens
July 28 was written by Anne
Chislett and takes a
humorous look at the
problems which beset a
modern farm wife.
The season will close with
the return of a hit from the
1977 season, Ted Johns' "He
Won't 'Come In From the
Barn",which opens Aug. 25.
This play illustrates the
trials and tribulations of the
modern farmer from the
setting of the- . farmer's
castle, recreated on stage
complete with live cows,
chickens and pigs.
The 1981 season runs from
July 3 to Sept. 5; tickets and
information on the plays are
available by calling 523-9300.
