LOUISE BARRINGTON Last Friday was one of the bigâ€" gest nights of Royal York‘s school year. It represented the results of months of hard work by scores of devoted members of the Royal York Dramatic Society, It was opening night for "The Desperate Hours," our first serious dramatic production. This play is the thrillâ€" ing story of what happens when a trio of vicious criminals enters the home of an average family, terâ€" rorizing them for three days. Hope you didn‘t fail to see the play that everyone will be talking about for weeks to come, The Dramatic Society is an integral part of RY. and deserves your support! | Our Wrestling team, in a bout|deaths 1188 filt'n"nu Are.

Our Centennial Campaign is apâ€" proaching soon, and we hope to raise $2,000 this year. One half will complete the sum needed to furnish a room at the new Etobiâ€" coke General Hospital. The other half will be something for the school itself, perhaps a new sound system. As an overall project, the Student Council has asked that we all coâ€"operate in selling chocolate bars. If every student sells 3 of these we stand to make $700. It‘s a pretty easy job to sell candy, so when the campaign comes ‘round, ?get about selling three barsâ€" ell six, or twelve! Speaking of winning, have you thought about your entry to the Royal York Literary Contest?! The deadline is approaching fast. As in previous years there will be prizes for Junior and Senior Prose and Poetry sections, In addition, there will be a prize to the writer of: the best folk or protest song. So get out your pens, pick your category and write yourself a prize. Entries should be submitted to Mrs. Allep or Herman Siegel, as soon as possible. %..

A Violent Moment in "The Desgerate Hours" staged by Royal York Collegiate students last week was this scene with Dale Cruickshank, Hugh Sargent, Mike Helps and June Smith. This is Good News Day for those CLOVERDALE MALL Talkingpoint... Lakeshore friends of ours, who have followed the fortunes of the Seager family for ten years now, and who were getting worried about the fate of. our No. 1 daughter, now a 24â€"yearâ€"old spinâ€" ster â€" Jadé is getting married. Really and truly, straight from the cannon‘s mouth. The date is setâ€" February 24, and it‘s going to be a candlelit ceremony at our house. Of course, there will be some cynics you whorwill refuse to beâ€" lieve [t, after Jade‘s two previous engagements. John, her husbandâ€" toâ€"be, must be her 53rd boyfriend, but never mind, friends, it has been a long hard pull, but we‘re sailing into harbour now. I‘m sorry to spring it on you so suddenly, but we didn‘t know either until last weekend; Jade cunningly invited her father and me down to her .new apartment on Bathurst Street for dinner on ‘Saturday and they shot us down then. Of course, we. are delighted â€" but it has caught us hopping financially; mind you, anything less than a year‘s notice would do this, but we haven‘t recovered from Christmas: yet. Have you? Of course, Ken like most fathers of the bride, sees no problems and he‘s not the slightest bit worried. While I go around the house, jotting down things that need painting, finishing off, tearing out, reâ€"covering, etc., Ken assumes that nothing has to be done except to sweep the kitâ€" chen half an hour before the cereâ€" mony and make sure there‘s plenty of grub and booze, and that‘s it. ("If they‘re friends, they‘ll come to see Jade married, not to look at the house.") I said to him tentaâ€" tively last night (not wanting the shock ‘to be too suddenly), "Darâ€" ling, we only have three weekends and there‘s a lot to be done in the house." He looked at me stonily and went back to reading the bridge problem. Later on,he pointâ€" ed out that I was at home two days a week now, so I should have plenty of time to do everything. All I have to do between now plenty of time to do everything. _ All I have to do between now and February 24th is order the cake (Ken suggested I could make it, when I told him the price. of: wedding cakes), buy a new frock: for myself and for the girls, ordar} the flowers (Ken would probably: suggest dandelions if he knew what this is going to cost him at thib‘ time of year), also buttonholes and posies for the family, wash tl:e} sofa covers, clean the curtains, have the kitchen painted, agree on a guest list, get the invitations out (Jade is going to make these herself), rent a punchâ€"bow! and glasses, provide a buffet for 40 people, turn the carpet in the sittingâ€"room, around, so that the curling edge doesn‘t trip anyone up, and try not to go into debt. It would help, of course, if I had By JOAN SEAGER unlimited money and/or_time, _but my only assets at the moment are a 24â€"pound turkey sitting in the freezer, which we didn‘t use at Chrstmas, two cheques to come "The Wonderful World of Caliâ€" forni®," is the fourth exotic spot to ‘be visited via film in the travelogue series sponsored by Eatonville Kiwanis club.

A land where the desert drops to more than 200 feet below sea level, and in less than a hundred miles rises majestically to more than 14,000 feet of snowâ€"capped beauty.

Mer second (very brief) engagement was going to lead to a quiet wedding,. which meant cutâ€" ting out the Italian loveâ€"songs. Now this one looks as if it‘s going to be quite reasonable by comâ€" parison; if it doesn‘t take, perhaps she‘ll get married at the City Hall nextâ€"time and go to a hamburg bar afterwards, You are probably curious to know what sort of man Jade is marrying, _ after â€" being ~© chased across the burning Sardinian sands by. mad, middleâ€"aged millionaires and evading the clutches of BOAC pilots in Bermuda.> John is 24, 6‘8" (you heard me), handsome with black slightly curly hair and. a neat beard, bright blueâ€" eyes, brilliant white teeth (all the better: to nibble her with), has a uwerinfl intellect, works at the Globe and Mail, plays the guitar, smokes a pipe (six of them), reads enorâ€" mously, is extremely hand around. the house, tends to be just as arguâ€" mentative as I am (I find that being 1‘8" shorter than your opâ€" ponent is a real disadvantage since he pats me on the head) and loves Jade devotely.

(Ken is ‘upset because this means he won‘t get any more interesting stamps). They plan to live in Jade‘s apartâ€" ment and the main problem is what to do about a bed. Jade has a very nice spool bed, but it‘s the usual size, and they can‘t afford to buy the customâ€"made, kingâ€"size bed that John really needs, so far a time John says he‘ll sleep with his legs hanging over the end. This shows you how besotted he is. Fortunately at this stage, comfort takes second place to you know what, but the honeymoon will deâ€" finitely be over when he insists on getting a 7‘ bed. Since Jade is tall for a woman and John is unusually tall, any babies they proâ€" duce are sure to be long, dark and probably very bright. You know, the type of obnoxious child who is correcting your grammar at two and writing freedom songs at five.
