keeping in the theme to keep us happy ghs won a battle with mlltoa a scoreles first half kept the play close and tense in the 3rd quarter milton rouged mackenzie twice for 2 points and going into the 4th quarter milton lead 20 in the dying moments of the last quarter paul barber tallied for the touchdown and bill hardman ad ded the extra points to give ghs a 6f win the game was very fair nd both teams were evenly match ed the win over milton put us in a position to win the rugby trophy if we could defeat acton but to win a rugby game a team must feel like playing the confid ence must be running high and the spirit good with a determination to win despite any odds ghs un fortunately lacked these essentials to earn the big game through with acton acton obtained two touch downs simply because ghs did not feel like tackling the opposition ghs had the players but it lacked the ability to coordinate properly not from lack of practice but be cause they didn t care or lacked the spirit each player had a job but when the ball carrier started to run he was on his own in this game blocking tackling and the snaps were poor in general every thing wasnt what it should have been if ghs played that game over with the correct attitude or spirit i dare say acton would be the ab solute losers i guess the score should be men tioned acton won 1610 not cause they should have though paul bar ber and francis hulme were the point getters and to say the least they really earned them editorial sometimes its pretty hard to find material for editorials as past editorials hove shown it is hard to collect the thoughts 1m ghs and put them down the way everybody feels we have a few critics who do nothing bul critic our news paper and dont give any construc tive ways and ideas to improve it on the other hand there are many who willingly give their time to scribble out a report for the news paper these people ore to be com mended for their fine spirit and patience in helping to make some thing- to fill the space allotted to us in the herald a few people cannot represent ghs truly unlcis they have the support of all around them and thats what this paper needs support a newspaper needs critics but critics who can help to make it better doubtless ghs students have many brilliant ideas which would make high tales a better newspaper we hae lots of good writers but thty need ideas and inspirations which only the student can give them wed like to make high tdles a really out standing newspaper one you i in be proud of and we need your help and a little cooperation thanks make presentations to john evans at friday assembly john evans who retired as caretaker this fall was presented with tokens of their eteem by the staff and students he also received a cheque fromx the school board whch was represented at the assembly by dr j bjmilne and walter blehn tyr lambert said a few word about mr evans and then mr biehit gave him a warm sendoll and remarked on his 28 yeais of faithful service to the geneartion who have passed thro ghs eileen oates presented a gift from the students and mr lambert a gift from the teachers looney bin today sorrow hangs from the halls of ghs acton defeated us tuesday 1610 and won the football trophy it is the first time since ive been going to high school that they have won thursday a bus load is going up to preston for a game against pres ton they is even charging us poor players 75c to help pay for the bus after the acton game we is all broke and now they want more money sparky our good looking tea cher is sporting a new hairdo we still cant figure it out now after 2 days its something similar to a horses tail excepting on sparky it would be called a pony tail teachers have begun clamping down on us 5th formers miss in- man has had atealess tea party for two of our geometry students and she says there may be more if we dont learn our bookwork for the past couple of weeks we are having a new student drop in tor a period or so his name is sbnoky a little black hebitz 57 variety otherwise a dog it spent a very interesting french period but got expelled in english by our principal its favourite sub ject seems to be physics but mr baxter wont ask it any questions even though he knows the little brain box knows the answers eileen oates one of our scholar ship winners received a 30 check the other day so fifth form goes on a spree when she gets it cashed well thats enough for now see you in 2 weeks au revoir j ls note lay off sparky grade 11 report well folks chapter two of grade eleven capers is not as exciting as chapter one was in spite of our feverish attempts to start some mis chief we received no cooperation at all from the teachers a certain official clap was in troduced which had a certain ihythm which was repeated a cer tain number of times and finally ended with a very certain bang the class practiced hard to get the certain rhythm memorized the cer tain number ot times generally agreed upon and the certain final bang to be a bang not a rumble the first guinea pig we honour ed by presenting our clap refused to give any sign of noticing it at all the second abruptly told us to well we never had enough nerve to try it on the third thus our efforts were certainly fruitless another episode that was non- profitable we staged on the day of our triumphant rugby game with milton we were to a film at the howard wrigglesworth school and were getting impatient at the de lay in moving to the latter school so we expressed our feeling by singing a more appropriate word would be squawking here we sit like birds in the wilderness if you dont know the song you may safely consider yourself fortunate apparently our expression of feel ing was not appreciated because we were left in our unhappy condi tion until all other classes had left the building here we shall leave you hoping that in two weeks time we shall be able to have a more amusing tale to help defrost you from your bo red stiff state caused by this is sue well said father to little tom- my how did you like the circus it was good tommy replied moe why is it an after dinner f but i didnt think much of the speech is like
