You say that Seagrave are so rough. Well, Sonya have the dirty stuff, The game was fast as said before. One'to nothing was the score ° The Sonya boys so big and . strong, Had nothing on the Seagrave throng. L Moon was the hero of the game, Who made the hounds feel rather tame, He scored the goal that went full whack, Into the net by Andy Mac. King on the forward Hine had speed, And had the wind of any steed. He bumped the hounds, both : big and small Which didn't stop his speed at all.

It was the last game of the year, Art Gibson mixed it up a s0 They stopped young Jay Gibson Obituary On January 12, 1966, at the home of her nephew, Denald Thompson, Nestleton, there en- tered into rest Ethel Margaret Thompson, in her 93rd year. Born Dec. 9th, 1874, in Cart- wright Township, she was the eldest child of the late Robert Thompson and Mary Jane Llord. The last of her generation she was pre-deceased by a sister, Elena, and two brothers, Wil liam and Henry. Born on the family farm near Nestleton, she was always keen- ly interested in its operation. Her hobby was gardening and for many years she shared her beautiful flowers with friends and neighbours. A devout An- glican, she was a willing worker in St. Albin's Church on the boundary between Cartwright and Manvers, being a choir member and at one-time the organist. Miss Thompson was a charter member of Nestleton Women's Institute, her mother being one of the ladies who helped to or- ganize this branch; - Less than a year ago-she was. so happy to be able to attend a banquet | celebrating its 60th anniversary, and so proud to wear her life membership pin, présented to her several years ago by the branch. In 1949 Miss Thompson mov: |" ed with her brother Henry to Blackstock, where she spent much of her time assisting him in his clerical work as Sec'y- Treas. of Cartwright Township and ther township societies, and & other township societies, and was always keenly interested in the people and affairs of the township. When she could no longer attend church she would sit beside her radio and, with hymn book and prayer book Topen, follow the Anglican ser vice which she so enjoyed. Miss Thompson spent her life in ministering--to her family, setting aside her own desires to serve those whom she loved. Left to mourn her passing are four nephews: Donald of Nes- tleton, Merle of Melfort, Sask.; Ivan of Blackstock and Hoey of Oshawa. ~The funeral service in St. John's Anglican Church, Black: stock, on January 16th, was conducted by Rev. R. C. Rose and interment was in St. John's Cemetery. Pallbearers were David Johns, Maurice Nesbitt, Harry Mec- Laughlin, John Hamilton, Victor Malcolm and Harold Martyn. Among the tributes from re- latives and friends were floral offerings from Nestleton Wo- men's Institute and Cartwright Coufreil: =° PORT PERRY STAR -- THURSDAY, FEB. 2nd, 1967 -- 9 HILLTOP This year's annual "At Home" was a gala affair. The entrance hall and lunchrooms were me- ticulously decorated in the theme of Rhapsody in Blue, lighting provided by multi-col- oured spot lights, In the gym- natorium, the Blue Diamonds provided the music while every- one admired this year's centre piece; a skilfully crafted silver carriage. The highlight of the evening was, naturally the se- lection of our school 'royalty'. Our centennial year Queen is Miss Gale Forder, her Princess Miss Janice Williams. Congra- tulations is extended to these girls as well as all the finalists. Mark up another win for Mr. Firth's Intermediate boy's bas- ketball team. Plyaing at home last Wednesday, January 18th, they defeated Uxbridge High School 46 - 25. In his game even the second string was able to play over four minutes straight without letting Ux- bridge score. Although: it is difficult to single out a star from such a great first string as the intermediates,.the shots 'were really swishing for John MacMaster who led the scoring for this game. It is unwise for a reporter to speculate, but surely this team is an even bet to win the Georgian Bay Area championship. * Qur Senior team also was suc- cessful against Uxbridge on Wednesday in a game, so close, the score teetered back & forth HERALD numerous times. The final out- come was 42-37 for Port Perry. The evening before the Junior team quite easily defeated Ux- bridge playing at home for the first time. Our 'wrestling team staged a | very successful match against Orillia playing in Port Perry on Monday 23rd. With represen- tatives in most of the weight classes, the final total points score was 56-18 for Port Perry. Most of these points -were a- warded for pins. With the return of activity period from 3.00 to 3.30, many activities intended for everyone to take part in, are re-commen- cing. Intra - mural basketball got under way on Monday and the I.S,C.F. is re-organizing for another year. . --Mm Brunton AT REST STEPHENSON, William James --Suddenly as the result,of an accident on Sunday, Jan. 22nd, 1967, Wm.
