ST. JUDE'S Extension and development of the new Sunday school on the. west side should be given priority. over the proposed re-building of: the northern entrance to St. Jude's Chureh, it was unanimously agreed at the annual vestry meeting St. Jude's Church, held Monday. evening in the parish hall. A rec- that this procedur be adopted by the parish council was embodied in two motions, moved by Rev. J. A. M. Bell and seconded by Christopher = Arm- strong. Rev. R. H. Howson, cur- ate, who is in charge of the west side Sunday. school, stated that the attendance averaged 56 pup- fls, and that the accommodation in Westwood pate school was badly overcrowded. 1 Teel taatiy when ithe! time comes for future development we have a very fertile field to draw from," Mr. Howson declared. Rev. F. C. Jackson, the rector, who presided, called attention to the crowded condition of the Sun- day school in his annual report. He stated that if the new sub-div- ision continued to grow as rapidly as at present the proposed church in the Forster survey should be proceeded, with. One of Mr. Bell's motions called for the further consideration of a proposed new entrance for St. Jude's by the building committee. Another important motion, al- so adopted unanimously, called for a meeting of the finance com- mittee to increase the salaries of the clergy and other church of- ficials or employees. The financial statement, of the general fund, prepared by W. B. Reade, secretary-treasurer, show- ed total receipts of $18,668.86, compared with $17,183.36 for 1949. Balance at \December 31 was $1, 028.65, of which $824 is proceeds. from the garden party, owing to the building fund. Cash donations to the extension fund totalled $23,806, and pledges outstanding at the end of the year amounted | to $34,746.91. "Oakville's population 'is in- creasing rapidly, and a number of the newcomers are Anglicans," J. Cowan, retiring people's warden, told the meeting. "They are taking an active part in the church, which is very gratifying to the clergy and mysell." "One of my principal endeavors has been to extend the participa- tion of the family in the life of this church," the rector, Mr. Jackson, stated in his repor "Christians are responsilfle the present world situation, due to their falure to realize the nec- essity for propagating the Gos- pel with vigor in all parts of the world." He appealed for support for missions, and referred to the difficulty of obtaining enough adults to act as Sunday school teachers. HIGH SCHOOL HIGHLIGHTS By Myke Dyer Well, I was nearly able to do it. Do what? I was nearly able to write up two wins by the high school senior basketball team. They started off the season with a win over Dundas last Tuesday, but then slipped off the rolling ball when the Burlington seniors swamped them last Friday night to the tune of 42-27 The juniors, even though they haye a strong team, haven't been able to get a winning combina- tion together and have lost both their loop games. Their first loss was to Dundas on the first half of a doubleheader last Tuesday. Last Friday night they fell vie- tim to the larger and more pow- erful Burlington team 34-23. Cap- tain Grant Farrow and Bill Smythe led the local team, along with John Bulmer, In the senior game at Dundas, Oakville seniors won their con- test 34-28, and looked to have a great quintet. But stage-fright seemed to seize them in their de- but on the home-floor. Dave Paw- son, Bernie Hodgens, Johnny Ok- umura and Chic Sale sparked the seniors in their games. Coming up are games with Salt- fleet, home and away, Burlington away and Dundas home. On February 1 and 2, the high school is holding its annual Drama- Choral night in the new auditorium of the school. The plays being presented this year are "Alexan- der Proposes" and "The Roman- cers." These are under the direc- tion of Miss Quail, and are star- ring such thesplans as Meg Mac- Taggart, Dave Pawson, Isabelle Pearce and Peter Banning. This quartet has appeared in previous successful stage productions. The Glee Club, under the direction of Mr, Brearley, will also perform between plays. The club will sing those tunes that have brought it festivals. So, for you that want an enjoyable evening of high-class. *| entertainment be: sure to get your tickets. from almost any student. The performance starts at 8.15, and tickets for adults are 50 c. Students, 35c. Judging from past Drama-Choral nights, these should be topnotch exceptions. Don't forget, Thursday and Friday, Feb- ruary 1 and 2, for the Drama- Choral nights. After the basketball games last Friday night a very successful dance was staged in the auditor- ium with music by Eaton's Band- box. The very large crowds of Burlingtonites and Oakvillites seemed to be enjoying themselves immensely. That seems to be the works for this week, but come next Thurs- day we'll be back with more news basketball, latest scores, and news from the world of high school in general from the student en- vironment.
