losses suffered by the raiders in their playoff series with dolbeau caitors there is nothing to be ashamed of in being defeated by an equallygood team and the one goal margin in each game shows hdw fine a distinction there is between winning and losing when two good teams stack up against each other while georgetown is by no meani out of the running yet it- can hardly be anticipated that the raiders will win three games straight against the castors who will be playing before their home fans on home ice from now on we were particularly impressed in the series to date with the good sportsmanship of the trench cana dian lads who most certainly must have been some what bewildered only one member of the team has much knowledge of english and it is not easy to play against an english team withenghsh referees and a crowd whoscgood natured remarks could easily be misinterpreted at times they played a smooth rugged brand of hockey all the way with no rough stuff no ganging in on the goalie as we have experienced with some of our opposition teams this year and with a smooth clicking fast breaking attack which was a treat to watch we wish it were possible to journey to st jo

that the scales will weigh in georgetown s favour and will be anxiously waiting the news to relay to readers next week potpourri seems this past month or two that we have been too busy to upend ihe required time on editorial wnt ing and this column has suffered as a result now it looks like another busy month for newspapers coming up with the announcement by col dnw of an ontario election on june 7th daily papers are predicting an overwhelming conservative victory though criticizing the present government by bringing hydro into politics as an election issue a word of praise is due mr and

maintain the standard for musical achievement which georgetown has long enjoyed serving sightless canadians at a summer course given by the canadian na tional institute for the blind in toronto last year eighteen blind girls from all parts of canada were trai ned to carry out one of the institute s most important services that of homejteaching as qualified 1 lome teachers these girls will be sent

in han dicrafts she may teach him to play cribbuge with braille cards and a special board above all else she will give him the confidence to strike out for himself to attempt new things to make the most of what he can do rather than lament ing over what he cant do because the home teacher ia blind herself he will know that he is not condemned to a life sentence of idleness and dependence he will
