Guild -CompletesQuilt The February meeting of the Guild of St. Mary's Church, Dublin, was held) at the home of Mrs. Wm. Smith on Thursday, February 254"' Mrs. Smith presided. Mrs. James read the scripture. The first chap- ter of "The Greatest Story Ever Told," was read by Mrs. Charles Friend. The reading of the book is a project for the year. A quilt was completed by the ladies, and a delicious lunch was served by the hostess. The meeting was well attended by the members and friends. whicth had both exhaling excessive CO2 when all was over. In the spot dance department the victors walked off with two very high quality candy sticks. Every- one veryone felt it' was just what every champion deserved. Girls, your choice of lunch con- veners was superb! By changing the lunch menu they hit the spot for the hungry skating appetites. The variety of hot dogs, long johns and chocolate milk is just what everyone has been looking for, as far as a change goes. •at * While -March's lion was pawing, this -area -this past week with snow and rain, it •meant that the stu- dents were forced to take a one and a halt- days extra holidays. No one seemed overly broken up about it, so if it should happen again, probably it will be quite acceptable. We shouldn't feel 'too proud about this; .,there were 5,000 other students in this part of the coun- try that had the same unsuspected pleasure, - Like everythitrg,else, there is al- ways. a catch to these few joyful hours of freedom. Classes will have to do double duty to get caught' up. This is especially true for Fifth Form. which has its hand's full cramming in the knowledge un- der ordinaii•y conditions. Let's not fight it: they're only three weeks away! Not only does Pete Cottontail 'bring the chocolate eggs, but along with hint hops the Easter exams, For'the rest of the month it means that most of the midnight oil will be used up in an effort to cram the celebrum of the cranium with the literature of Shakespeare and the precarious laws of Newton. Enough with this topic; it is actions, acid not word's, that handles this situation. In connection with the Variety Night, there has been no set pro- gram, but it is expected to liven up the old halls around the end of April and the -first of May. The drama club is expected to present a very passionate play that will contain same touching scenes. In the s?lo,department there is to he everything 'from trumpeters and violinists to the high -reaching so- pranos. Oh, yes! There is a group woakitig behind closed doors that have something up their sleeves.

"We, will take Sarnia in four straight. In our ser- ies with Waterloo we will hea,t them out this year, and -if the boy' play) hockey we will win the On- tario title. Imean, if they play the• hockey they are capable of playing," In this- statement Steve has taken quite a mouthful for hockey 'displayed in Seaforth last Saturday night. It is granted that the local squad ended on top 7-4, but the hockey they played was far from Ontario championship style. In the first half of the game the wingmeo, found it too much, work to back- check, ackcheck, but the defence held the fort. Seaforth passing was no whiz, and in the final period Ron Salter's defence collapsed, leaving him .carrying the load. These are just a few"of the prob- lems the team are going to have tst iron out if they are going to go (beyond 'their grouping, It is no secret that the London, Chatham, Wingham, Sarnia and Seaforth is the weakest Junior 'B' group in the province this season. Local fa.ns feel Seaforth is far above anoth- er team in their group, and if they play heads -up hockey they are cap- able of giving any opposition top•, competition. The team can be assured that there is a crowd of sports behind them if they set this mark for their destination. In other hockey gelds there are other just as interesting stories for Seaforth sport fans. Far across the sea in Scotland, there are two natives of Seaforth that are also enjoying the highest of success. These two young gentlemen are Ken Doig and Gar Baker. Ken, who has played in the Scotch climate for the past three years, is rating well upon his league's scoring race in the Scot- tish National Hockey League. Fol- lowing the hockey season', Ken spends the summer months taking golf trophies from the island clan. As for Gar, well he is turning in. such a terrific job in between the pipes that he has his team riding in second place in the standings. He is well up inthe shutout brack- et, .as many hockey fans remem- ber was not uncolnnlon for him last season. In one of the early season games. Gar ran into a fly- ing puck that has him wearing an upper bridge at the present. Both boys are expected to return home within the net four months. Everyt. Canadian has a direct in- terest in the w-oddlauds. ZION Mrs. R. . Aikens visited her daughter, Mrs, Bill Durst, and Mr, Durst, recently. Mrs. H.
