Feelings are mixed as the day dawns, pnobably some time next week, when reports are handed out. Fan those who are looking forwand ta the event there is nat much ta say except, well done, keep it up As for those who are- n't sa keen ta find out officially in what their efforts resulted, we can only remind them that thene are only seven weeks remaining till the next set o! exams begins. Cheenful thought, eh what? If possible we will publish next week the list o! those who obtain- ed the highest marks in thein re- spective forms in the Christmas exams. The Variety Show The Variety Show practiceebe- gan hast week. Predictions are, o! course, still bard ta make, but it appears that if everybody co-op- erates, Mary Paterson's aims will be nealized in a successful review. The Hill Billy's are already tak- ing on parts as the Mantins and McCoys, those reckless mountain boys. The othen day Mary bad a regulan Gam-Session, with al applicants for a chorus girl role displaying their shapely wanes in the Chemistry room, since the or- chestra uses the Assembly Hall. Even if the girls don't cook up a formula ta make themselves Betty Grables, they should satisfy ahi the maie comers. Basketball Three out o! four for first bas- ketball games îsn't bad. Our B. H.S. basketball troupe journeyed ta Port Penny on Friday ta do battle witb the Port Penny Girls' and Boys' Basketball teams. The results were quite gratifying. The Junior Girls started off the lengthy boop program by tnim- ming the hometown juniors 22-7. Peg Dippehi was the individual star for B.H.S. racking up 12 points. Madehine Osborne, Ca- therine Campbell and Janet Dale, second formers playing their first games, showed promise as ex- cellent matenial for future B.H.S. teams. Eleanor Sweetman car- ried the load for Port Perry. The Senior Girls had an even easier time of it, winning 22-3. Had not coach Mrs. Lewis bencb- ed Jacqueline Heyland in the sec- ond bal! ta give other members a! the team a chance ta show their ,pnowess, B.H.S. might have doub- led the score. Jackie netted 14 points while the rest o! the team kept the Port Penny squad off the score sheet with a tightly knit defense. All P.P.H.S. points came by way o! fouI shots. Pearl Bres- lin made her presence f elt ! ! ! The boys did flot have as easy a time o! it as the girls. The juniors wene behind af ter the -fîrst bal! o! their game. However, in the latter bal!, Ron Moonecra!t found the range for four baskets to give B.H.S. a close 16-14 win. And firially we have ta acknow- ledge a defeat. Had it not been for a finst quarter lapse on the part o! aur Senior boys the game would have been very close, but using man ta man tactics the Port Penny lads made it 20-6 in the first bal!. Lee o! P.P.H.S, really went wild, with seven field goals. In the second bal! the Bowman- ville team bad an edge in play, but it was toa late. Pont Perry won 29-21.* Had Buckspan prac- tised bis set shots just a bit more, and had Bill Rundle experienced one o! bis "on" days, the final nesuit might have been different. But why post-mortem? Every one a! the seniors vaws that the defeat will be avenged wben P.P. H.S. cornes ta Bowmanville. At that time they will be splendidhy attired in satin sport trousers, wbich sbould dazzle Pont Penny to a degree af ineffectiveness. Sehool Treat Last week the school had the appontunity ta bear Miss Ltona Flood, in what was probably the finest exhibition o! musical tal- ent ever offened at aur school.

There was a great deal a! laughing, singing and joking, and as yet we do nat knaw what the partaking teachers thought o! aur merniment. We drifted hame- ward shortly and vowed that since we bad bad such a wonderful tîme, we wauld bave anather par- ty in the near future but for the present we are satis!ied.
