This
Week At the Se*forth. 'High School
(By Jae , ' Wauas )
Hi, friends, and fellow Students. too!
So maay insults have been spewed
from my pen recently in this column,
usually directed at the students of
S.H,S., that I now have to differenti-
ate between. "friend's" and "students."
Friday Night is Commencement Night
That's right, folks. This Friday
might, Nov. 14, is the big night, when
S.H.S. "struts its stuff", or sumpin',
for the benefit of the parents of all
our students, and also for the gradu-
ates and anyone else interested, Last
year we had an "Open House" style
of Commencement, with displays and
samples of work done by the students
in all the rooms. It was quite a varia-
tion from the usual 'Commencement
program, and • it 'was\iVery successful.
This year another type of program

will li,e tried out. The new movie
Vrolfieetor and *Quad equipraaent will
be featured, and all the program will
be carried out on the stage. A dance
for students and graduates is planned
for after the program. ,As usual,
there will be the presentation of priz-
es for 'academic prowess, scholar-
ships, athletic and marksmanship
awards, diplomas And certcates. A'
piano solo, by one of the schools
most talented pianists, Josephine Mc-
Iver, is scheduled, and judging by the
sounds of her practising in the audi-
torium every day when the Drama So-
ciety isn't holding forth, it will be
very much enjoyed. Speaking of the
Drama Society, said society is re-
sponsible for a very new feature on
this year's Commencement program:
A radio plays no lease It will be 'pro-
duced just as a radio program is pro-
duced, by a real radio' station, and
you, the audience, will hear it just
as the audiencen a radio atuddo
would. Also entirely new will be the
presentation of severalmovies by our'
own projector. Theae films will' not
be *ordinary newsreels, nor will they
be the run-of-the-mill short feature.
As far as is known, the films have
not appeared in or around Seaforth
as yet, and in all likelihood will not
appear again here, Sgtme. willbe
highly informative, and 'all will, be
very enjoyable, but none could be-
long to the class "educational film,"
quite often known for its "dryness,"
so come •and enjoy yourself.
•Of course, all this is possible only
because of the good sense and far-
seeing attitude of the High School
Board --fn authorizing purchase of a
costly set of equipment, but it is
equipment. that puts Seaforth High
School a large step farther ahead of
other high schools of comparable size
'in this part of the Province. And an-
other thing, while we're at it: How
much does one, have to shell out. for
this near-extraaganza? "'A mere 35c
—12c more -than the third part of a
dollar! , So come one, come all, and'
see "the biggest little show under one
roof!" (Apologies to P. T. Barnum,
or whoever originally said that).
The Lighter Side of the News
Judging by her last name, Joan is
Irish, and it certainly showed the
other day when harsh words were
spoken and blows struck in anger.
Just exactly who' Joan was fighting
with, no one, would say, but it seeth-
ed to have something 'todo with
Gordy, ,and a certain Don may have
been "Irish's" sparring partner—who
knows.? But if she wasn't, Don, take
it out on her forinvolving you in it.
No! Here she is again! Sure an'
begorra, "Iris.h" Joan crashed this'
column again this week. This time,
a spool of thread caused it all. Just
a little spool of thread, but, it cost
the entire class a detention.. Some-
body used it for a Yo -Yo, with an
eraser tied, to the tree end. The dif-
ference between the spool of thread
and the Yo -Yd wasthat after the
eraser bounced off Joan's head the
thread kept on unwinding, until Joan
and several others in the vicinity
looked like a collection of rare co-
coons. When the cocoons began to
burst, mostly from supressed laugh-
ter, the teacher sensed a change in
the air, and when no one owned up
to ever having seen the spool . of

There were between 17 to 20 . play-
ers at the first practise, held in Strat-
ford, during the week -end. It is .the
intention of the Athletic Association
to hold weekly practises for the time
being, • with more intensive training
later. We fully believe every oppor-
tunity should be taken now for the
boys to get their skating legs." In
order to get proper combinations
worked out,' any club must begin their
training early. They, must work to-
gether, and -we suggest the club keep
training every week. If there is any
player who was unable to be present
last week -end at practice, please con -
'act Reg. Henderson or President
Teall.
Q,'
Congratulations to, the Town Coun-
cil and other organizations for their
plans for outdoor rinks. These facili-
ties are for the benefit of all young
"children who Wish to learn to skate
and play hockey. Further details will
be found in the council story and on
the editorial page.
It is believed the • resumption of
Duncan Cup hockey will take place
this winter. There will be midget
and juvenile hockey and the High
School will form an inter -form sche-
dule. Dr. Paul "'Brady, Legion sports
director, will be in full charge, and
we suggest the citizens get behind,
the Legions sports program, and help
them in every possible way.
It is expected there will be a care-
taker to look after all rinks, the
Public School, Separate School and
High School. These rinks will be un-
der supervision and there is no no
doubt in anyone's mind that the
sports -loving •citizens will enjoy see-
ing their children' learning to skate
and to enjoy good clean fun. It will
be fine training and clean supervised
sport will bring to bheir minds:
"CLEAN SPORT IS GOOD SPORT"

thread before it wound itself over and
around Joan, the whole class was
given an ".eleventh period."
Ab, yes! Such is life! Try; to give
a practical demonstration of one of
Nature's processes, and what hap-
pens—a class detention!! - -
'things are getting pretty -serious
when a fellow thinks about hanging a
sign on his girl, "Private Property,"
but that's what Jim is thinking of
doing with Joyce, Bill persists in
sharing bis text -book with Joyce
whenever possible, and charming lit-
tle conversations take place behind
its cover, no doubt. Jim will either
have to change his girl, dispose of
Bill, or dispose of the guilty text -book.
Why not ask Dorothy Dix, Jim?
And while we're on the subject of
text -books, who accidentally ripped
two pages out of one belonging to
the school, while trying to emphasize
something he was saying. No stu-
dent would try 'to emphasize that
hard, so who else could it be but a

and Remembrance Day
At S.H.S.
This past week has been one of the
best yet. this year. We had two days
holidays out of a possible five school
days. If only we could keep, it up!
The first holiday was last -Friday, be-
cause of a teachers' meeting in Code -
rich. The other was on Tuesday, of
course—Armistice Day. In the tenth
period on Monday we had our special
Armistice Day services. The services,
preceding the movie, were simple ;
t cry consisted of the reading of the
Bible, followed by the two minutes of
silence. Two hymns, "Rock of Ages"
and "Abide With Me" were sung, and
Don Smith read 'the poem, "Remem-
brance Day."• A moving picture fol-
lowed. It .gave an unusually clear
conception of the effect that the rise
of the dictator and the war brave had
on men's minds.
Teen Town???
Last week, in the sports column
that appears next door to this„ col-
umn, mention was made of a Teen
Town for Seaforth.,For those adults
to whom the name is. new, a Teen
Town is usually an organization of
teen-age people, 'who govern their -
selves in their organization. The Teen
Town is sponsored and set on its feet
• originally by some service club, such
as Kiwanis, the Lions, or the Y.M.C.
A., and Y.W.C.A. A hall is rented tor
regular meetings, and the Teen Town,
under the guidance of its teen-age
"Mayor and - "Councillors," and the
representatives of the sponsoring
club, conducts business meetings and
plans and carries out social funetions
for the teen-agers only, to make the
Teen Town self-supporting. Teen
Towns are not a new thing; theywere
instituted during the war, in the larg-
er cities, and, as to munacipa,l admin-
istration, approve - them, and backers
are found, they' are spreading to
smaller centres. Seaforth, with its
large number of young people in and
around the town, is in great need of
such an organization for the "in-be-
tween," age. Goderich, a town not a
great deal larger than Seaforth, has
a very successful one. Why not Sea -
forth?
I guess that does it for • another
week, folks, but be sure to come up
to the school Friday night. Com-
mencement is one of. the most im-
portant events in the school year, so
be sure to come and, enjoy it. Tickets
are 35c, and any" -high school student
bas them for sale. Incidentally,, see
me first—I have an -awful lot that I'm
liable to be stuck with. Pardon the
advertisements, but that's one Way of
doing it.
See you at Commencement!
