"Keep it up Baleo." The meeting opened with the Grand Howl, which was soon fol- lowed by inspection and the collec- tion of bones. Here I think we should give a pat on the back to the Brown Six. Why? Now come on fel- lows you ought know! They won the banner for ing the cleanest patrol. "Glad to hear it, fellows." Knots, knots, knots. Yes the Cubs are really doing a good job on their knots.

"Eye" am pleased to hear that Ted Terry is feeling better now and that his condition was not as bad as we were led to believe. Before 'Eye' go further "Eye" would like to remind you of S. M. Murdoch's comment on the selling of Christmas Cards. Your leaders feel that not all of you have put your whole effort into it and they certainly expected a much better re- sponse. Don't forget the paper drive one week from this Saturday. A little birdie also told me that, if paper drives keep improving 8. M. feels that we will be able to drop Christ- mas Cards altogether. This week, the Lion Patrol won top honors as far as inspection was concerned, being informed from the waist up, so, take an example from them fellows. "Eye" might mention however, that, if 8. M. Murdoch can appear in shorts at the meet- ings "Eye" doesn't think it would be wholly impossible for you. After retiring to the upstairs hall, we had a game of poison-tag follow- ed by a study period which included semaphore and miscellaneous activi- ties. By the time this column ap- jears in the paper, Mr. Ostler will ve tried some of you on your Fire- man's Badge. This won't stop me, however, from wishing you good luck. Don't forget the camp at Samac this week-end. If you plan to go, get your name and fée into one of the leaders as soon as Sosslvle, Bye, now; through experience most of you know what and how to pack. Alsg, don't forget to bring toys for the Kiwanis Fund. Au revoir, "The Eye." 4TH SCOUT NEWS 'Well we had another fine meeting last Wednesday with a swell turn- out of boys. The meeting got under way with the opening horseshoe, flagbreak, and then inspection which gave another fine showing of shoes. After inspection we had Ken Ostler show the boys the fireman's lift and then had a game in which the boys carried one another down the floor. The way some of the boys were car- ried I bet they would rather stay in the burning building. Patrol cor- ners followed in which there was am rious disappearance of a few of the boys who turned up a little later. (Important business fellows?) After patrol corners a dizzy game followed, (and I do mean dizzy). Bob Corall was then invested and is now a true full-fledged member of the troop. "Good work Bob." The meeting was closed with prayer by A 8. M. Nicholson. Don't forget to get those Christ- mas cards sold and the money turn- ed in. Its only a couple of weeks until Christmas you know, Till then-- THINE NOSEY (And the Nose knows) 15TH OSHAWA SCOUT TROOP Honor Ante Gloriam "Sugar and spice makes every- thing nice.' That should be the mot- to of the Wolf Patrol because of the candy salé they had last Thursday. When the time for the sale was an- nounced all you could see was a mad scramble for the Wolf's patrol corner. After opening horseshoe we had 'a game of "Stepping Stones' which you play with two pieces of paper. We then had a compass test game which, wonder of wonders, the Wolf patrol won. The standing in that ame was: Wolf 6, Beaver 4, Cobra , Nighthawk 0. (Fox Patrol has changed their name to Cobra).

PRY: ¢ TEACHER .REMANDED Toronto (CP)--Alfred P. Greene, 39-year-old former school teacher, yesterday. was remanded to Dec. 10 on a charge of non-support of his wife and feur children. Bail was set at $2000. Crown counsel Arthur Klein said that Greene in- tended to plead guilty to the charge. Greene and Mrs. Beatrice Reason, a former pupil of Greene's were arrested in Chicago Nov. 15, 15 months after Greene's blood- spa car was found in a To- tonto ravine. Police said the fake murder scene was staged to Greene's flight to the United States with Mrs. Reason, 19. Guess what!

The glass, composing three cano- pies -- the shaped upper portions of ecclesiastical windows -- and five other pieces, was found by workmen who came to demolish the building. The vicar of Dere- ham, Rev. J. Noel Boston, - says that the pitting and coloring of the glass proves it to be of medie- val origin. No. 1 mystery -- no one can figure out where it belonged. It was first thought to have come from the parish chitrch when Lord Walsingham's grandfather installed a memorial window. But the measurements are wrong and 50 far no church in the' district has been found with windows of the right size. CENTRAL CHATTER By DUTCH DUTTON The co-ed volleyball tournament has played six Junior school games. Winners are 9A, 9D, 9E, 9H, 10B and 10D, They finish off the final round between nine and ten on Mon., 17. Next week the 11 and 12 winners battle for the honor of playing 13A for the Senior school championship. Assembly this week was a wel- come relief from scholasticism and sports. Apart from the regular classes, gym activities and clubs, a school can become rather drousy without a good assembly. Thanks to a committee from both Staff and Council, we have. Compared to last years, our assemblies are more in- teresting and better-planned. 13A] gave the niners an idea of what the skits should be like. You might re- member that a good director is half of the making of a good skit. OCVI's Congress sent an invita- tion to our Council to attend 'their meeting last Thursday. The group of Councillors who went, found it very informative. Asked by our northern neighbors, President Cath- erine Hickey made a stirring speech. The badminton tournaments are also getting along. The The doubles have reached the semi-final round which will finish on Tuesday. Should you comé to watch these games, you'd seé some really fine playing. The singles may be even more exciting with their "sudden death" games. The mixed badmin- ton club is playing a "ladder tour- nament" which should eventually take the best players to the top. The first Christmas cards ever to be sold in Central have arrived. Advance orders have been filled and the few left over will be sold Mon- day in the lobby. Commencement and Open House come at next week end. Another first in the glorious history of OCCI w ill be done up right. On that day, the best of our scholars-- last year's and today's -- receive their just awards. The much talk- ed-about Service medals are also ready to honor those all-round stu- dents who really deserve them. A large turn-out seems likely. OCCI and OCVI have made a new ruling against playing sports out- side of school which are also played in the school. It goes something like this: "Any girl playing a sport outside of school may not play that sport within thes chool for one year ~--gither inter-mural or otherwise. Any boy doing so may not play any sport in the school." I presume the one-year limit also applies to the boys. This. was brought on by some football players being on the Raid- ers, and by basketball right now. Several girls were trying out for a City league team playing boys' rules. Anther City tearm almost had some of our best players on the boys' side. Since the new went through, it seems they're all staying to play for Central. Speaking of basketball reminds me that our Semfors won against championship games, the first line in'fine form, worked well. This is their second yesr together under the coaching of Mr. Macllveen. We got our reports back yester- d| day. No matter what the repercus- sions at home it is a re- lief to finish up with the Fall term. That means Christmas is a lot nearer, but then so are Easter and June ( .) Central Christmas Capers come out in two weeks. Most of the skits are ready by now. Probably the kind we like to see most are the slapstick ones where somebody ets a ple in the face. As soon as e skits are "over, the the rough, while the girls wear anything from. ski socks on, Did you know t one dictionary deé- finition for Capers is: 'Pickled green flower-buds and berries'. We'll see you all at the Christmas Capers.

On Wednesday, November 14, we welcomed a new Tawny Owl and hope she will like us enough to stay. We also welcomed a new Tweenie, her name is Helen Knowlton. Wednesday, November 21st found the Brownies passing their Tests very quickly, and also keen on the new game that Packie taught them. November 28th the Brownies went on a Magic Sleigh Ride, and found Brownieland was a busy place as each Brownie started a gift for Mother. My that old clock seems to speed up and there just is not enough time to do all we want to do. We had a very hurry-up closing and the Magic Squeeze went around the ring the quickest that Brown Owl has ever seen it. Taps and Good Night closed the meeting. cember 5th found the Brownies eager to finish their gifts and they started to work before their opening. Packie played games with the girls as they completed their work. In Pow wow Packie read a story about the Animals Christmas and then sang Carols. Taps and Prayer brought a full meeting to a close.

So that everyone will get a present, any Guides who will not be able to come next Tuesday, please else. The girls were given their parts for the play and each girl will be able to take part. In patrol corners we made blotters from old Christmas cards and starred Christmas trees to decorate Guide Hall in accordance with the party. At campfire the girls sang carols accompanied by Miss Lesley at the plano. The meeting closed with Taps. VERA MANDRYK, . . Patrol Leader. END GUIDE CO. Becond Company was almost at full strength on ednesday night the 28th of November, only one being absent. How come Marilyn--you've been absent a couple of weeks now. Hope you will be out next meeting, your patrol is anxious to start get- ting a féw "attendance points" again, In patrol corners the Guides brushed up on Tenderfoot for a short time and then followed a trail lead. ing them to yarious points in the building for further instructions to be followed. Brownie recruits are coming along nicely. One of these days Iris and Joan will be ready for enrolment, and it is hoped Carol and Phyllis will be too, so get going girls! In patrol competition the Canaries took the points in a parcel wrapping contest performed by two Goldes from each patrol using only the left hand. However, no shention is going to be made as to the number of ints made each night, as it is go- ng to be a complete surprise--to all --when the bean jars are opened in the spring, and the points counted, a bean for each point earned. At Camp Fire the 'Christmas Party" was discussed and preliminary ar- rangements made for the big. do. There seems to be an extraordinary lack of ideas for the Christmas Good Turn, po keep your eyes and asars open Guides and get your thinking caps on and let us have some sug- gestions. Meeting closed with Taps. LIZABETH THOMSON , Captain. SRD GUIDE CoO.

The last two meetings. have been two important nights for the Com- pany. On Wednesday, November 28th, Miss Moyse paid us a visit at which time Mrs. .8. Wotton was en- rolled. Mrs. Wotton is the s3rown Owl for the 1ith Brownie Pack, as no doubt you know. We were pleased to have Miss Moyse and Mrs. Wot- ton stay for the balance of the meet- ing. Instruction in Tenderfoot and 2nd Class work was going on in the Patrol Corners, while Compass was being taught by your Captain. Last ednesday, December 5th, was our Christmas Party, and Santa left some very interesting parcels un- der our little tree which stood on the table. Thanks to Joyce Arkwright for this. A little village adorned the mantle, to tie in with the festive season. A ve informal program took place with Carol singing as the first thing, We were grateful to Janet Kerr for playing the Carols for us, as well as a very nice selection later on. Skits, a Story, and the Vir- ginia Reel were the contributions of the 4 Patrols, and were enjoyed a great deal. Beth Travell favoured us with a Solo, and Evelyn Reid and Bev McLaren, with a piano duet, Bev McLaren with a piano solo, about 10 girls from different choirs with Carols, and Christmas records on the recording machine, completed the program. After the gifts were given out by Santa Claus, refreshments were served by the Patrol Leaders, The Mother's Auxiliary prepared all the refreshments, and at Campfire Mrs. Hatfield led in three cheers and a tiger for the Mother's Auxiliary. We were very grateful to them. As a last reminder, "Don't forget your sandwiches which are to be at St. George's Sunday School Hall, on Centre St., by 8 o'clock on Thursday, December 13th, 1951." This is the one Good Turn of the whole Com- pany for the year. Good luck to the Guides trying Compass this Saturday, and to all a Very Merry Christmas, and we'll be Seeing you on Wednesday, January JEAN ARMSTRONG, Captain.

Mrs. McMullen has informed me that one Ranger from Oshawa will be eligible for the National Camp, which will be held at Ottawa this summer, so be thinking about who you would like to send. . By the way gals, the kettle we de- formed about two weeks ago will cost us two-fifty! "Who did you say burnt the hole in it Pat"? This week's muster was far the most lively one we have had in some time. Let's see if we can sntother it just a bit eh? Have you heard this ore? Fifteen Santas on the dead man's chest, Lavish promises had done the rest, Ho! Ho! Ho! and a coat of mink. See you next Monday night gals. '"The Scribe." 12TH BROWNIES Our attendance keeps up won- derfully well as our opening circle is always a large one and I would like to say thank you to all the Brownies for their regular attend- ance. In Nov. six of our fam- ily put on their wings and joined the Guide company, therefore we had to make some new sixers and seconders. I am sure the girls now wearing these stripes will do their best to carry out the duties of their new positions. Also another year has passed for some Bownies and so they were presented with another Service Star. Catherine Black took advantage of one of the recent sunny days and tested the Golden Bar girls for skipping and ball throwing, glad to say they all got through. Our room in Guide House for the past two weeks has taken on the pattern of Santa's workshop as we have been so busy preparing for that Sy season just at hand. During Pow-Wow several treas- ures -have been brought for the Pack to view. Thank you girls for bringing them. . We are sorry Mrs. Flath has not been with us lately but we hope she will be able to join us again in the near future. + Thank you, Packies, for your elp. Mrs. Wilton, Brown Owl.

Many rooms are gaily decorated with posters, and others will have demonstrations. There will be an auditorium program during which the Minister of Edu- cation, Mr. Dunlop will declare the school open. After this, the public is invited to inspect the building. In last week's assembly period the grade 11 boys played the grade 11 girls in a volleyball game. The boys emerged victor- ious (11-9) after a hilarious per- formance and a lot of kibitzing. The boys (ranging from football players to a baby in diapers,) are to be commended on their or- iginality and humor, We hope to see more of this in the future.
