SRS. COVERLY AND WAYLING, COACH CRAIGEN DCI Bantam Win Forces Playoff By GIBB McKAY (DC1 Reporter) An evening of _ true-to-life, suspenseful basketball was offer- ed Friday night at Donevan for all loyal supporters. This same evening was the final opportun- ity presented to us to make the grab for the district champion- ship. Results were favorable in the bantam division only, in which case the DOI and OCCI squads are now: tied for first place. Congratulations go to John Elliot and his boys for making such a fine showing. This, of course, forces a two-game, total- point playoff with Central in the coming week. : Individual scoring in that divi- sion rated B. Wayling with 12 points and Kit and Til with six and four respectvely for the winning side, while OCCI marksmen included Rudak, Cal- der and Baskerville, totalling five points each, and Hudgins with two. Final score showed Donevan ahead by the slight margin of 22-17. CENTRAL UPSETS JUNIORS Our junior squad didn't, we fear, fare quite as well. Central, with the aid of Kilistoff and Rajkovic, 15 and 19 respective- ly, upset our boys by a land- slide of 64-27, assuring them of that all-important position at OSSA. On our side, Kaplon and Hobbs were credited with C 10 points each. In the senior division, once more the home-team suffered a set-back as Central edged out in front from the very begin- ning. However, just before half- time, Donevan trailed by one point only, due to the fine of- fensive and defensive skills of our own DeJong and Crozier, who netted a total of 10 and mine points respecively. Second half saw Wayling come on strong, to rap up nine points to aid the cause. Nevertheless, the fine sportsmanship was slightly overwhelmed by the op- position who ranked Calder with 13 points and Rowden with 11 to end the scoreboard in a decisive 43-34 ratio. ' CONGRATULATIONS Our congratulations go to the OCCI teams and their coaches Dunbarton Plans Saturday Dances Tet's get together Saturday night!

TKC Meetings Held Bimonthly At St. Joseph's By MARY GRYGORCEWICZ (St. Joseph's High School) On Wednesday, St. Joseph's High School students held their bi-monthly "The King's Cam- paign"' meeting. The previous one was in action when our inspector came to the school two weeks ago. He must have been somewhat alarmed as he -passed each classroom about 9.10 a.m. to find the studens all talking and worse still, to discover a teach- er in each room quite uncon cerned about the talking. On a second look, though, he probably saw that everything was under control. What was happening? A TKC meeting! He saw the pupils of a class gathered in groups of five or six and each group carrying on a discussion under the guid- ance of a captain. One student, the chairman of the class, went from group to group as his or her help or advice was re- quested. We teenagers are often ac- cused of being unable to carry on a sensible discussion about a serious topic. Anyone who tunes in on a TKC meeting soon discovers that, like so many other accusations levelled at teen-agers, this one is also false. The TKC is a special club for high school students. Through it, we discuss and try to overcome many difficulties in our compli- cated lives. Under the spiritual leadership of Christ, we teen- agers try to pave a way for the future , not only for ourselves but for others around us. TKC meetings take place every first and third Wednesday at 9.00 a.m. or 9.30 a.m. and. every meeting has a different topic which stimulates debates and interesting opinions. Last week, for example, the topic was on how sinful habits can creep into a person's life-- dishonesty, disrespect, impurity, disobedience, untruthTfuiness, neglect of prayer. We discussed how each could ~ THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tuesday, February 25,1964 3 McLaughlin Band Is _-- Fourth In Festival 'By STAN ZULY (MCVI Reporter) On Saturday, Feb. 15, our band journeyed to Toronto to compete in the Kiwanis Music Festival. Unfortunately, the group didn't capture top spot, but they did place a respetcable fourth out of nine bands; they missed third place by a single point. Much praise should be given to Mr.. Francis and the band for doing such a fine job;, perhaps next year first-place will be ours. Recently one of MCVI's schoolboy curling teams cap- tured the first of three tro- phies offered to the winner of each of three schedules played annually within each high school. ; The team, consisting of Terry Twine (skip), Gary Huntley (vice), Murray Taylor (second) and Richard Huntley (lead), de- feated O'Neill in the semi-finals, and then scored a decisive 9 to 2 victory over the second semi- finalist team from Donevan. Thanks to the fine effort of these four curlers MCVI will have another trophy to display in recognition of excellent ac- complishment by our athletes. The trophy will not be received until after the schoolboys' curl- ing banquet, to be held about a month from now. Turning to inter-house basket- ball I would like to announce that the 13AB basketball team, consisting of John Schuerman, Terry Twine, Gary Huntley, Murray Taylor, Ron Rosnak and Stan Zuly captured the inter - house basketball cham- pionship by defeating the 12A boys 21-14. Top scorer for 13AB was T. Twine with 9 points while Doug Barr was the top scorer for 12A, contributing 11 points in a losing cause. On behalf of the 13AB boys I would like to ex- press my condolences to the 12A fellows and wish them bet- ter luck next year. Our wrestlin gteam perform- ed this week, winning one match and losing one but it must be here noted that, of all the matches fought this season, O'Connor Pupils At MLG Courtesy Of Duff, King By ROSEMARIE POLITO and DONNA PARISE Denis O'Connor High School in Whitby is named after a former Archbishop of Toronto who spent his earlier years on a farm in Pickering Township. The O'Connors have been noted for their faith, learning, loyalty and patriotism. Our school crest is a modification of the O'Connor family shield. At the base of the crest is our school motto: "Nil Sine Fide et Labore" -- "Nothing is Accom- plished Without Faith and Work"'. The school colors are grey, green and white symbolized by the smartly-clad girls in grey uniforms, white blouses and green bows. Our gym uniforms are bright green jumpers over short-sleeved green blouses. In- scribed on the pocket of the gym uniform are the initials, DTO'C by which we will prob- ably become known as_ the *"docs"', _ The boys appear distinguished in their grey flannel slacks and black blazers. Their gym. uni- forms are white and green. SEE LEAFS Our school is engaged in var- ious sports events. Saturday night, Feb. 15, proved to be a special highlight for us. Through arrangements made with Dickie Duff, ("Sir Richard"), and King Clancy, tickets were procured for us to see the hockey game at Maple Leaf Gardens be- tween Chicago and Toronto. Our presence at the game seemed to influence the Leafs for a thrilling game eccurred and Toronto swept to a 4-0 vic- tory over the Chicago Black Hawks. However, some credit must be given to the "CHUM Witch" for she was stirring up a powerful brew in front of the Gardens on Saturday night. PING PONG TOURNEY The students of the High School recently held a_ table- tennis tournament. Refresh- ments were purchased with money from the Student Council treasury and were served by mothers of the students: Mrs. endanger a young person, why these faults are so difficult to avercome when they are a habit, and what the remedies might be. At the end of the meeting, each group draws up a resolu- tion so that our discussions can be more than just empty words and wishful thinking...... Parise, Mrs. Maher, Mrs. Stor- ey and Mrs. Sorichetti. Various prizes were given to the winners: Kathy Hughes, Neal Maher, Ted McGee, Donna Parise and Terry Gibson. Door prizes were won by Karen Pres- ton, Mike O'Connor, Pat: Brown and Linda Englehart. We are anxiously waiting for March 1 as we expect to move into our new High School on that day. MCVI has been victorfous in the ) majority of the cases. Last week our Senior girls' basketball team fell victim to the Central squad to the tune of 30 to 19, while our Juniors won. } The last home games by our boys' basketball teams were played last Friday against Dun- barton.
