Nevertheless, gleeful student celebrations -- untimely perhaps--began eariy. A tea dance, from 4 to 5.30 o'clock on Friday afternoon, per- mitted pleasure and relaxation to reign. Music, dancing, laugh- ter, and activity testified to the success of the dance and hope- fully foreshadowed a some- times fearful "Monday morning after." However, with excite- ment rising at the return of examination papers, it can be seen that many more dances will be neeled to relieve all the frustrations of the student body striken with a serious case of "examinationitis," On Dec. 18 Henry will proud- ly host its Christmas dance. The gym will be decorated by a hearty crew of seniors who have volunteered in true Christ- mas spirit. Boys! Muster your courage; your favorite girl*is only an invitation away! Girls! Wear your charm prominently; your invitation is only a smile away! On Dec. 21, the last day of school before the Christmas holi- days, Henry will hold our an- nual Christmas Assembly. We are looking for the great talent of Henry to shine through the shyness at this Assembly. As always, we know this assembly will highlight the first term, catching the hearts of students and staff. At a "'Hi-Lite'" meeting, the yearbook staff considered a new element to fascinate its readers. This is the addition of a mascot (for Henry's students) to guide the reader through the book, offering his opinions--desired or not. To hear .more about him, follow these reports, and watch for the forthcoming "Hi- Lite'? campaigns.

Town Plan Inaccurate BOWMANVILLE | (Staff) Bowmanville's plan of the town is incomplete and inaccurate. Jack Brough, registrar of deeds for the County of Dur- ham, told the board of works committee at its last meeting that the plan of the town was done in 1869, and was incom- plete and inaccurate and sug- gested a new plan be surveyed. The board has instructed the clerk, to investigate the avail- able grants and subsidies appli- cable to a re-survey and new planning program. The first Aid courses now being run by the Emergency Measures Organization in the town of Bowmanville are filled to capacity. : Gordon V. Wright, Co-ordina- tor for the EMO, said the reason for this is due to the organization on the Parking Banned On Brock North A bylaw prohibiting parking on the east side of Brock street north to Rossland road was passed by Whitby Town Council, Monday night.
