She is now paralyzed from the neck down. All proceeds of this dance were turned in to the "Barbara Turnball Fund" in the hopes of covering at least some of the tremendous medical expenses facing the.Turnball family in the future. The dance was well organized by Greg Barton with additional help from the Anderson Dance Committee, all of whom should be congratulated for their fine efforts. In addition, special thanks should Neil Wortman, vice president, congratulates Greg Barton for organizing a very successful dnce on behalf of Barbara Turnball.

The proceeds from this sale also went to the fund. Music was supplied by southern rock band "Roadwork", who preformed free of charge.

This money was presented in cheque-form to Linda Turnball, sister of Barbara Turnball, over the following Monday morning's an- nouncements.

Last week's sports ac- tion found our midget boys' basketball team claiming their first vic- tory of the season. The team played an ex- cellent game against Ajax High School team. DO'C won their first exhibition game with a score of 71-23. Scoring for DO'C were the following: Adam Ber- toice, 16 Dave Rown- tree, il; Wally Borg, 10; Austion Quinn and Mar- co Garcia with 8 each; Roberto Bouque, 6; Richard Macapagle, Danny O'Connor, and Barry Murphy with 4 a piece.

Tryouts for the girls volleyball team began this past Tuesday and continued throughout the week. Good luck to all of those who tried out. On the intramural side of sports, badmin- ton replaces volleyball as the lunchtime sports activity. Members of the opposite sexin the same houses join forces to play teams in dif- ferent houses, Watch the birdie! A week ago today, the Grade 12's departed for their annual retreat.at the Queen of the Apostle's Retreat House in Mississauga. The 12's returned Thursday evening with fond memories, but many a Grade 12 was seen sneaking some much needed shuteye whenever possible. The yearbook club members are wotiking long, hard hours in or- der to get the yearbook finished by the deadline. Also, the Grade 13's held a meeting to discuss the much-awaited Christ- mas entertainment. For those of you who are new at DO'C, the annual Christmas entertain- ment entails hilarious skits concerning the famous and the daily drudge of life at DO'C. Last week the Grade 13's made that all im- portant decision of which university to at- tned, as university ap- plications were due in at the office on Dec. 1. On Dec. 6, Mr. Robinson took a group of students on a trip to Durham College. College ap- plications are to be tur- ned into the office sometime after Christ- mas. So that concludes another fun-filled week at DO'C. Who am I kid- ding? THAPAR DENTURE-THERAPY CLINIC 214 Dunda ' s St. E. 194 Ki'ng St. VV.
