By BILL UPTON After completely overwhelming Woodbridge 11â€"0 last Thursday night, the Dodgers came back to Weston only to get scalped by the Etobicoke Indians to the tune of 6â€"2. It seems lately that the Dodgâ€" ers just can‘t put two good games together. Gary Ford, who has been the team leader and inspiration, led the Dodgers at Woodbridge with a sevenâ€"point effort made up of three goals and four assists. Dave Roy got two goals and singles went to Noble, Ferguson, McDonâ€" ald, Rick, Parham and Terry Draycott. The Rangers tried time and time again to break through Briâ€" an Cropper in goal for the Dodgâ€" ers, but he turned them back 29 shots in all to post his second shutout of the season. The game was a real clean affair with refâ€" eree Ego handing out just four minor penalties, three to Weston and one to the Rangers. The game on Friday could have given the Dodgers a fourâ€" point lead, but they blew their chances as the Indians came for scalps and by the twoâ€"minute mark of the first period had a twoâ€"goal lead on goals by Jacobs and Powers. These goals stood up giving the Indians a 20 firstâ€"perâ€" iod lead. The Indians again struck fast for two quick goals in the second period on goals by Trevelyan and Saville for a 4â€"0 lead. Dave Parâ€" ham spoiled Cole‘s shutout just before the period ended. With just two minutes gone in the seeâ€" ond period Gary Ford took a nice pass from Steve McDonald and beat Cole to make the score 4â€"2, but again two fast goals, both by Powers, gave the Indians a 6â€"2 lead and the game. The work of Grant Cole in the nets for the Indians was outâ€" standing and so was their deâ€" fence. The Dodgers had . some good chances too. Parham hit the post twice, Ford once and Ano Culligan hit the crossâ€"bar. But as always, they count for the goal keeper. Don Thompson and Grant Cole for the Indians and Steve Mcâ€" Donald for the Dodgers were the three stars of the game as pickâ€" ed by Art Snarr, Asst. Mgr. of the Dodgers and Al Hillman Metro Jr. "B" Statistician. This week after Fridays game, the Captain Ron Porter and assistâ€" ants Butch Pender and Jim Emâ€" brey feel sure, however, that they will make the playoffs. The boys predict that Leaside will come out on top, with York secâ€" ond and Weston third, with East York, U.TS.,. Mimico, George Harvey and Runnymede coming Members of Weston Collegiâ€" ate‘s senior hockey team are a bit pessimistic about repeating their league championship of last year after dropping their two exhibiâ€" tion games.

Each form will collect food which will be displayed in the foyer of the school. The Weston Lions‘ Club provides a turkey for ‘each basket. Sandy Dalrymple, campaign chairman of the stuâ€" dent council, will head the drive. The â€"commercial department students of Grade 12 also underâ€" take the task of repairing and wrapping used toys which have been contributed by the students. Two or three of the toys usually go in each basket and the rest go to the children of the Thistleâ€" town Hospital and the Weston Sanitorium.

What gets parents out by the hundreds in pouring rain on a midâ€"week evening? Well, cancel out committee meetings, associâ€" ation meetings, political: meetings and church meetings for a start Commendably starting punctuâ€" ally at 8 p.m., a parentâ€"packed auditorium cheered and applaudâ€" ed a festival of music by the Junior String Orchestra, Junior Band, Gr. 7 Choir and Treble Choir. Following an intermission more, advanced accomplishments were performed by the Senior String Orchestra and _ Senior Bandâ€"the latter played a ragâ€" time "School Room Blooz" for a delightful grande finale. Surprise show stealer was Mr. F. Mihay‘s Gr. 9 Boys‘ Choir. Coached, directed and introduced by their math teacher, these hale ‘m heartyâ€"throated lads vigorousâ€" ly sang their way through a famâ€" iltar salty sea chantey and a se lection of equally familiar singâ€" along tunes from a bygone era. Their allâ€"tooâ€"short onâ€"stage apâ€" pearance returned with a swingâ€" ing "Jingle Bell Rock" and the school‘s song "Bevâ€"erâ€"ley Heights . . .", joined in the final "rah rah‘s" by the assembled senior music students. This effectual blending of voices received such enthusiastic whistles, cheers and loud acclaim, it â€" practically brought the house down. Congratulations and unanimous praise overwhelmingly endorsed, If someone were to ask you at what period history began and when it ends, what answer would you give? Many people date their knowledge of history in terms of B.C.; A.D.; 1066 (the Magna Charta seal at Runnymede); or 1867. Just to cram facts and dates for regurgitation at examination time can make history not only dull, but a rather gruesome orâ€" deal to be endured until after school graduation. To begin (with, did you say something sarcastic to someone this morning, or even five minâ€" utes ago? That is now history. Let us take another view of history and see if it is really "alive", vital and interesting. Did you‘close the deal on your new home this afternoon? That is now history. I know a teacher who asks his pupils to examine their desks which are made of plywood in most cases. Nevertheless, these plywood desks were once giant trees, timber topped, floated to the mill and "shaved" to obtain the plyâ€" wood. Do you realize your desk was once a mighty tree, budding, leafing and standing year after year, in fact, many generations, against winter‘s blasts and sumâ€" mer‘s wet spells and droughts, while perchance an ancestor of our Indian citizens set a trapâ€" line beneath it? A couple of years ago, we obâ€" tained a crossâ€"section of a sugar maple tree trunk from a farmer near Windsor. Who knows how many pug marks of bears had been ¢lawed into its bark? He was primarily interested in a winter woodpile. After much sanding and polishing, we were able to clearly count 77 annual Sound of Music Draws CGrowds "Living History By ARMOUR "SCOOT" IRWIN by all those present, the fine achievements of the music deâ€" partment at Beverley Heights: Mr. C. Ketchabaw, strings; Miss M. Spencer, brass; Mr. P. Englishâ€" man, vocal. Let‘s not forget the mathemaâ€" tic department plus musicâ€"Mr. Mihay‘s song successful way of finishing up a problem new math period was proof positive. Overheard: Beverley Heights has the best music department in North York! After last week‘s performance a challenge hard to beat. PUDD‘NHEAD SAYS: "What it takes to make a house look lived in is Sunday." WINTER ADVENTURES The Northwestern Family "Y" has a funâ€"packed Christmas holiâ€" day program lined up for boys and girls 8 to 14 years on Dec. 27, 28, 29 and 30 from 9 a.m. till 4:30 p.m. Activitiee during the four days will include all sorts of things from an air cruise to a hayride and many other exciting events. Applications for enrolment in the Family "Y‘s" Winter Advenâ€" rings. In this way we can pinâ€" point part of Queen Victoria‘s reign, the first World War, the Wright Brothers with their first plane, right to, Yuri Gagarin‘s first space trip. All these events took place while this tree was giving sap in the spring and shade in the sumâ€" mer. My father talked to my greatâ€" aunt when she was well on in her eighties, who described her grandfather and _ grandmother who also were in their eighties when she was a little girl. Add these two ages together and you will readily see that my father was able to cover a span of history over 150 years. They told her about the toys and games they had when they were young. Do a little arithmetic and you will realize that Jesus walked this earth just about fifty grandâ€" fathers ago. History is certainly not dead, but very much alive. As I look around it grows more exciting every day.
