* 32 -- PORT PERRY STAR -- Tuesday, October 27, 1987 PPHS students get ready for a busy week by Cheryl Martin Hold onto your hats, pull out those dancing shoes, and get ready to plunge into an extremely busy and interesting week. All those grade 13's who, for the past few weeks, have been straining their brains trying to decide on a career, a university to attend, and desperately trying to maintain their sanity throughout all this, will ap- preciate two presentations at our school on Monday October 26 and Tuesday October 27 from represen- tatives of Wilfred Laurier and General Motors. The 1.S.C.F. is sponsoring the an- nual Great Pumpkin Hunt in Toron- to which will take place on October 30. The bus leaves the school at 3:40 and will return around 11:30 p.m. Admission is $11.00 which includes a $5.00 bus fare and $6.00 to par- ticipate. Permission forms are available in the office. Here's a message from those wild sometimes wacky, and wonderful students who faithfully meet every Thursday to escape the routines of school life and who are relentlessly in pursuit of fun and excitement. The Thursday Club is looking for outgoing people who would like to become members, "If interested, be there or don't shew up at all," as quoted from Scott. Listen to an- nouncements for more details. Just a reminder from Student Promotions that socks, shorts, gym- bags and knapsacks are still on sale: for people who like to wear fashionable and affordable school apparel. The music department will soon be selling seedless naval oranges, clementines, and Indian River Red Grapefruit which will be available in small, medium and large cases (Clementines are only available in small cases). For more information contact Mr. White at the school or any music student. Beginning this week, float meetings, At-Home meetings and Malmont Atoms post 5-2 victory On Sunday, October 25 the Port Perry 1.G.A. team travelled to Oakwood to play the Mariposa Belles. The girls on the team quick- ly discovered that the league they are playing in will be tougher than they have been used to. The Mariposa team which has been together as a unit for 2 to 3 years dominated the game with their quick passing and playmaking. The Port Perry team not used to playing as a unit as yet did show the coaching staff that with a few games and some hard work they will become a competitive team in this league. This is a big step as the girls will be playing Provincial A & B teams in the Central Ontario Ringette League. The final score of 11 to 1 was not, indicative of the play of our goaltender Terry Childs. She stop- ped many shots that should have been goals. Scoring the goal for Port Perry late in the game was Jen Pelow from Tina Soomre. These girls showed that they can play in this league and no doubt will im- prove as the season goes on. Come out and support our local ringette teams. Port Perry 1.G.A. plays its next game at 1:30, November 1 at our local arena. urlers compete for cash prizes This season, the Uxbridge Curling Club will be hosting an eight-team inter-club competitive curling ieague. All games will be played on Thursday evenings at the Uxbridge Club, with the action getting under- way at 9:00 PM. The league, which includes two teams from the Port Perry Curling Club, was set up to provide area teams with quality competitive curl- ing early in the season in prepara- tion for the Ontario Divisional playdowns. The eight teams will play a seven game round robin schedule ending December 17. And the top four teams will then advance to a semi final round, to be followed by a championship playoff for two teams. The overall winning team will receive $1,000. The runner-up will take away $600 and the two other semi final teams each will receive $300. The entry fee for each team was $275, and White Rose Nurseries of Uxbridge has agreed to sponsor the league. Interested spectators are welcome to view the'games and en- joy the hospitality of the Uxbridge Curling Club. The first game got underway Oc- tober 23 with the Scott Howey rink of Port Perry defeating the Steve Foster rink from Port Perry by a score of 7-5. Brian Suddard of Oshawa downed Ian Dobson of Can- nington 7-3, while Bill Lewis of Unionville defeated Lorne Mclean, also of Unionville, by a score of 9-5.
