THE OAKVILLE-TRAFALGAR J OURNAL The high school senior team scored their first victory over Dundas last Wednesday to the tune of 17-0. Touchdowns go to the credit of Ted Squires, Bill Currie, and Doug Beggs; With converts by Beggs and Currie. I was not able to attend this game, but T understand that John Ross, Beggs and Currie (again) were the outstanding players. Judging from the score I would think that all the players had a finger in the winning pie. Congratula- tions, team! Fa A doubleheader with Burling- ton High School on Friday turn- ed out very well as far as the HIGH SCHOOL HIGHLIGHTS By Mike Dyer juniors were concerned. Dave Pawson began the scoring with a touchdown in the first quarter, followed closely by a long run by Pete Sutton for the second score. Neither of these were converted. Pawson scrambled over the line for a second time after the team had pushed its way down the field. Dundas then made an un- converted touchdown. Alex Wil- son completed the fourth scoring play and Pete Sutton, again, crossed the line for the final touchdown of the game. The final score was 26-5 for Oakville. It would be unfair to name just a few outstanding players in that game as the whole team was very Speaking Is Seeing By Carsten Glahn Not long ago there was a movie in which an amusing character said over the 'phone, "What did you nd then he said, "Hold on a til I put my specs on--I r you better that way." And then he put on his glasses, and im- mediately his face became satisfied He did hear better. Now, how in the world can the wearing of glasses make us hear bet- ter? Let's try to answer that | question in some detail during our chat together. You know, this business of learning to talk begins with the birth - cry -- a querulous, little wail that usually ends in the same Carsten Glahn sound as king or Optometrist rang or hung, and it ends that way whether your baby is Swedish, Esquimaux, Zulu, or American. Somewhere between 6 months and 17 months, baby repeats syllables, like "ma-ma, ba-ha, pa-pa," and the first syllables ordinarily begin with labial or lip sounds. If you'll look in your mirror and say, "ma-ma," "papa," "bay-bee" you'll sce what I mean. Now, these repetitive syllables. Why are the first ones invariably made with the lips? For two reas- ons: OF all the organs of articula- tion, the lips are the easiest for nor- ma They are con- rge muscle much larger, for example, than those that make a point of your tongue- tip. And we have a law in physiology and anatomy that says, "the larger the muscle, the is brought under control." That's why we crawl before we can walk because walking demands more in- tricate co-ordinations. And that's babies to movi trolled by rather Se! er and earlier it upon grosser co-ordination than speaking. But the second reason why the lip sounds come under our governance first is that they are the c; see. Children who are blind from Dbirth--but who hear--are delayed in the formation of "ma-ma," "pa-pa" and so on because they can't see Mother's lips. Did you know that in all the lan- guages in the world--and there are more than 1,000 of them--there are only 27 major lip movements? And of all speech sounds they are the easiest to teaclr and learn? A child learns to talk by watching other people talk as well as listen- ing. From the tenderest months all learn some lip of us unconscious| reading. That's why speech is easier to comprehend when the speaker And that's why we who have vision "hear" better when we wear our glasses. Learning to speak depends greatly on our ability to sce. This is not sur- prising, because fully three-quarters of all our knowledge comes to us through our eyes. And yet the amazing thing is that seventy people in every hundred vision faults of one kind or an- other. Think of the handicap these people unnecessarily give them- Perhaps they are those who 1d themselves lagging behind at the office or factory; others without their ability seem to get way ahead of them. se fir We can never be sure that our serving us at top efficiency xamined.

Fran The senior team don't seem to be having such a lucky season this year. They bowed to the Burlington seniors 11-6 on Friday in a very rough game. Milt Far- row and Bill Currie were injured, but were back in the game before it was over. Even Burlington can't keep good men down. hope you readers won't judge the Oakville team by the score. Even though they were beaten they showed the Burlington boys that Oakville can grow fine rugby players too. It was a tough game to lose, but bettr luck next time. + + Up at the high school this week the Debating Club held its first meeting to elect its officers. The results were Bill Blake, Presi- dent; Mary Margaret Nichol, Vice-President; Agnes Ann Mc- Causland, Secretary-Treasurer. The new wings for the high school are coming right along and it looks very promising for those lucky students who are go- ing to be at the school when they are completed. teva Well, I guess that besides the rugby games there isn't much that happened this past week, so TIl cover up my typewriter for another week and get back to reading Anthony Adverse. TEEN TOWN By Bruce Squires At last the biggest dance of the year is here. at is it? Why the Teen Town Time Dance at the Maple Leaf Gardens, and all our favorites will be there. Art Hallman and his orchestra, Ellis McClintock and his orchestra, Bobby Gimby and his trumpet, Benny Louis at the piano, the Jordanaires, the finals for the Miss Red Feather contest (all males will enjoy this particular ly), and Oakville Teen Town's personal friend, Kenn Watts as MC. Grab those tickets gang be- cause this is something you don't want to miss. Last week there seemed to be a smaller crowd at Teen Town. It was mostly a defficiency in our friends from Port Credit and Clarkson. A few managed to get into the club though, as guests of generous Oakvillites and a few on their own Oakville Teen Town Membership cards. It only seems fair if one outsider is let into the club, others should be too. The many rejected out of towners that I talked to last Friday night seemed rather mystified at the fact that, when they are willing to become members of our club do what they are told to do, and abide by the rules, they are still turned away because they do not live in Oakville. These teen- agers want to come to Oakville Teen Town because they like our club and they think it is the best place to go. They certainly don't want to harm us in any way. Let's at least give them a chance. Another complaint brought up last Friday night concerns the re- jection of members of other teen clubs. Everyone likes a new change of scenery. Why can't we show them what a small club we have. Arts & Crafts Society Holds Flower Show The Flower Show organized by the O. A. & C. and held in the "Barn," Front Street, on the 16th inst. was an outstanding success. The walls were banked with flo- wers and a long table down the centre of the room housed the exhibits for the floral decoration competitions. As might be expec- ted our professional friends pro- vided the bulk of the display and the great mass of chrysanthe- mums made a picture worth re- membering. A special corner was reserved for our neighbours from Bronte and a most beautiful ef- fect was achieved. The skill and taste in the arrangement of the different groups of flowers was most remarkable and should pro- vide an example for the O. A. & C. to follow in the future. Many thanks Bronte! Every one of the twelve "Flor- al Decorations" entries was much admired for their ingenuity and taste. The winners were decided by the votes of the visitors up to four o'clock. The result being: 1st, Mr. Herb Merry; 2nd, Dr. Juliet Chisholm; 3rd, Miss Mary Chisholm. The thanks of the Soc- iety goes to all these ladies and gentlemen for their noble efforts.
