WHitBY É~REE PRESS, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 1981, PAGE 9 Valedlictorian Lee wins Mayor' s Medal Anderson was the scene of much gaiety and celebration as it hosted Commencement and the Graduation Dance in honor of the Class of '81, on October 24. A few of the day's highlights were: Young Lee's sparkling vale- dictory address, Mayor Bob Attersley's present- ation of the Mayor's Medal to Young Lee and Mike Kennelly, and the presentation of the W.A. Andrew Memorial Award to Laurie Yates. However, the most brilliant stars were in- deed the graduates. The afternoon's festivities were rounded off with the Graduation Dance and buffet which were attended by over 200 gradutes, parents, and DO'C runners make COSSA By MIKE MURPHY Denis O'Connor H.S. Each year a student group from Denis O'Connor travels to Stratford to see the performance of their choice. This year, Oie Stratford excursion drew a crowd of ninety students who, when commenting on this year's performance of Shakespeare's "The Tamning of the Shrew", said it was the best they had seen so far. Our cross-country team participated in the L.O.S.S.A. competition at Trillium Valley and met with somne disappointment. Unsavoury weather conditions hindered the teamn's spirit and perform- ance. In spite of this, three DO'C runners managed to place in the top twenty qualifying for C.O.S.S.A. Michelle Monfortan placed seventh in the midget girls, with Edele Dodds placing nineteenth and Gina Blair fifteenth in the senior girls. The boys gave a tremnendous effort but feil short of the qualifying rung. No doubt they will be back for another crack at it next year. Basketball results are a little more encouraging. The junior girls won their game narrowly against Dunbarton with a score of 28 to 25. The senior girls did not fare quite so well. Superior shooting by the Dunbarton team stopped our girls in mid-charge, advancing to win Oie game. Hungry for a win, both teamns will play their next games at home against Pickering. It should prove to be a thriller. teachers. Mr. Gadd, Anderson's favourite D.J. contri- buted tô making the oc- casion truly memor- able for one of Durham's finest secon- dary schools. Truly memorable, in- deed, was the Grade 10 gorilla who invaded the hallways of Anderson in celebration of Al Hallows' Eve early on October 30. He was pursued by an enthusiastic and zealous theatre arts group who performed skits in various classrooms. That night, the school's Concert Band invited the Anderson ghosts, goblins, and even "sea- weed" to a D.J. dance in the gymnasium. This proved to be a really "phantastic" ghoully treat.' Another treat in store materializes in the form of the ACVI school play, "The Admirable Crich- ton, " which runs from November 4 to 6 at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $1, $2 and $3 and can be obtained at Anderson. Corne and see the work of a talented "new- corner" to this field, one David Hopkins, who is supported by a magnifi- cent cast of young dramatists. Don't miss this gala event!
