THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE PAGE FIVE § | Hi-Tide y JIM LAVIS Having acquired notoriety and a few mote readers after last week's effort, we're Jerfestly content now to go back to being our usual cheer- ful and syrupy self. One thing we found out, though, is that the truth hurts. On Tuesday morning the stu- dents saw the knell of their doom (if you can see a knell). The time- tables for the examinations were posted. Some kids already have their studying days all methodi- «ally mapped out, but most of us just keep mouthing, "Only two more weeks, Well, TI'll really knuckle down "over the weekend." Yep, we hear that song everywhere we go. B * op Since last week, we've had peo- ple rushing up to us and bellowing that we balled up the scores of the last basketball game; that's the last time that we'll send Louie Romanyi out to scout over the ath- letic field. Or maybe our pencil just stuttered and we mangled the scores ourself, At any rate Oshawa visited Pe- terbkorough last night with four games being run off, two junior and two senior. And Tuesday night the Saxons trounced the Jutes to the tune of 56-25, while the Normans nosed out the Britons 24-17. (Now we'll just sit back and hope for the best). Names of girls who made the phratry basketball teams are post- ed on the bulletin board outside the gym, . "Men in Causes" is the Sketch- ing Club's latest project. And have You seen their work on the little coloured violinist? Quite the thing, but that's only our inexperienced judgement, > The annual Valentine Dance was held last night and while the majo- rity of the upper forms were at the game in Peterborough, the whole affair was a success. Deco- rations were especially good, so was the music, and the general theme of the shiidig was "Why don't we do this more often, just what we're doin' tonight?" Cabinet meetings these days are to keep tabs on the progress of the directory. Some of the cabinet, we gee, are ploughing quite a fur- row. Guess Mr. Slyfield's rasping remarks last Monday touched off a spark to some of the "deadwood", as Don Howe calls them, Next session of Congress comes up next Thursday, with East York sending its delegation at long last. And say, don't forget to put in your falsies for the photo for the directory. * +P Thought we'd give out with a few hints for that all important studying. Not that we're any au- thority on the subject, but we've got a little space to fill up and it's as easy a way as any to do it. We're not going to preach what type of chair you should sit in or how many kilowatts should be burning over your right shoulder-- that's a lot of bunk. Study the way you're used to -- whether walk- ing around the room mumbling to yourself, or sprawled on the ches- terfield. What we want to say is that if you haven't kept up your work since the last exams (and who has?) there's always one way out -- and that's cramming. We know teachers condemn cramming, but what are you going to do when the night before the examination comes round -and your knowledge of the subject, is hazy, to say the least? You can't just fold your hands and say "Guess I'll have to fail because cramming is wrong." So you cram. And it can be sys- tematically done. And in the case of the lower forms keep remember- ing that you'd rather go through one night of inconvenience rather than wade through a huge mass of material comes June.. Round about twelve you start to drowse. So you get out the coffee pot and make a gallon of the stuff. Every once in a while lean back and take a breather, And then go at it again. Remember, this is only an emer- gency measure. Don't, whatever you do take all your exams this way! But it does bring results. And it is infinitely better than walking into the examination room fresh from a deep sleep, but with the horrible realization that you haven't the faintest chance in the world of getting even ten. And next time you'll know better, * * a People: Shirley Sheridan has left the world of prose appreciation and detentions to work in the hospital. Crazy about it too. Wimp Crawford, O. C. V. L's strong man, is being tagged by Old Man Lumbago these days, be- lieve it or not. And everyone seems to want to transport the cheerleaders to the out of town games. Nice to see the girls spreading their cheer around and taking such an interest in their work, isn't it? > Pp Do you know that: : He who always watches the clock is never the man of the hour? When working your way into a Steak 41 Cents A Pound 5 Three weeks ago the butchers of St. Helens, Oregon, started a price war while the residents reaped the boon of low meat prices. At the thick of the battle they were giving hamburger away with a dime tossed in to pay the customer for cartage, The battle has diminished somewhat in inten- sity with hamburger now selling three pounds for $1.00; pot roast 39¢c a d. The word has pound; steak 4lc a p d, and pork 5¢ a p hi spread to neighboring cities and new customers are thronging in. Meat is now coming into St. Helens by train to suppl t truck Above is a typical crowded butcher shop. conversation, you shouldn't do it by boring ? Fact is making people feel at home when you igh they were? * * And say, have you heard: I'll meet you at the hen house, Helen, if you'll -only egg me on?
