Special to The Advance. A very interesting concert was given by our South Porcupine High School pupils on Thursday and Friday evenâ€" ings. Owing to pressure of extra work, and warâ€"work the concert, did not specialize in a musical comedy as in previous years, as Mr. Blake, principal, told the large audiences which faced the platform on both occasions. But, judging by the applause which was given to each item, the parents and friends realized that:â€".cach pupil was putting into their individual parts all the best work of which they were capable, and a special note of applause was given when the war work of the school was mentioned. Incidentally the proceeds of both evenings went into the schools‘ special war effort. ((Last year the earnings were sent direct to Premier Churchill). The orchestra deserves special menâ€" tion. In ‘"Dance of the Crickets" and "Blue Danube Waltz" as well as "Folk Dance" and overture from "William Tell" the orchestra played tunefully and with precision. Mr. Nix conducted. In the first comedyâ€"a oneâ€"act play â€""Courage, Mr. Greene"â€"although a "holdâ€"up" was in the limelight, the comedy side of the play came upperâ€" most and eliminated any effect the production of a gun might have had upon the sensibilities of the younger element in the audience.. "Mr Greene" Douglas Farren and Gino Campagâ€" nola as the two truck drivers who lisâ€" tened in the lonely farmhouse to the narration by the "ghost" of the secrets of the ghastly place, were exceedingly good. Betty, of course, had the prinâ€" cipal role, and Elaine Leiterman did her small part well as the old woman who was mistaken for the ghost and whose unfortunate murder in an atâ€" tempt to "lay" the spirit walker was the culmination of the play. In between the plays the Glee Club sang very sweetly a double quartette "The Old Refrain" and ‘"The White Cliffs of Dover." But, as far as the concert went, to us the greatest highlight of the whole afâ€" fgir was the act called, "Tumbling Caâ€" ners." by the Girls‘ Athletic Societyâ€" Teacher Miss D. Wilkins. Very modestly the act appeared on Spite zhos The 12e second play was wellâ€"styled a nelodramatic thriller. It was: "The ister Who Walked in Silence" and was meller drammer" indeed. Luckily in pite: of the pale green lights and hostly setting nobody was frightened! Che young people who put this murder lay across fairly convincingly deserve n unlimited amount of praise and creâ€" it. The "Ghost" was a most realistic iece of acting and Betty Sharp held the udienca to the last..

The dead were: John Kravasec, part owner of the Diamond Taxi; Donanzo Lariviere, a taxi driver for the Diaâ€" mond Taxi; Alvarez St. Germain, a taxi driver for the Diamond Taxi; and John Ponikar, a friend of Kravasec‘s. Fragments of information gatheored here and there about the tragic acciâ€" dent reveal that one of the taxi drivâ€" ers had left Timmins some time on Friday with passengers going to Turâ€" pin‘s Camps, situated northeast of Timmins, and had been coming back to Timmins when the car became stuck in the snow. It was impossible for the driver and passenger to get the car out so they sent word to the stand in Timmins telling them to send out anâ€" other car to pull them out. Kravasee decided to wait till the next morning before sending out anâ€" other car and after daylight another car was despatched to the scene. Just before the car left a friend of Ktaâ€" vasec‘s John Ponikar, who was workâ€" ing at the Hollinger Mine, appeared and Kravasec invited him to go along with them and help to get the other car out of the snow. All four evenâ€" tually got away to the scene. When they arrived to the place where the first car was stuck they discoveed that they were unable to get the car out after they had shovelled the snow away from the front and sides of the car. ‘The men then decided that some one would have to walk to the camp which was quite some distance away and get a horse to pull the car out. It is said that quite an argument took place then between Kravasec and Joe Gregoritch, the other part owner, as to who was going to walk to the camp and who would remain with the car. It was finally decided that Greâ€" goritch and the passenger, Fred Lauâ€" zon, would return to the camp to get the horse. While they were gone the remainder of the party sat in the snowâ€"bound car to keen warm and they turned on the motor so that the heater would work.
