Little Tom Jones was hurrying to school one day last week. He had two minutes in which to arrive, and passersby heard him exclaim continuously, "Dear Lord, please don‘t make me late for school; Dear Lord, please don‘t make me late for school. Dear Lord . ." _ Finally he came to the entrance of our dear old school. As he hurried up the steps he stumbled and fell. This is what another lateâ€"comer heard him exclaim, "Dear Lord, please don‘t make me late for school again, but next time don‘t push so hard!" Incidentaly, dear readers, this is the incidental column, and any incidents are purely accidental. As we are runâ€" ning short of accidents, we‘ll leave you till next week. BRe on your toes, folks, another keyâ€" hole is in sight. Whoops! Did we say toes or nose? Whether we did or not, that is where we find Ourselves. As we slowly get up, we are confronted, at first, by the foot over which .we feel, and secondly, by a cheery smiling face. "Buy a ticket for the rugby game," he exclaims. They are all over. school, these vultures waiting to catch you by fair means or foul. We were the unâ€" fortunate victims of the latter. . As we round the corner, we are once imore blocked, this time, in a more gentlemanlike manner. "Are you inâ€" terested in rugby? We play against Kirkland Lake on Saturday, you know.‘"‘ One bright young man has his own unique way of selling tickets. He goes around the class room leaving on all the desks, tickets, which the pupils either take or leave. Most of them take them, however, â€"for they fully realize that it‘s all for the sake of our good old T.‘ H. V. Now, we hope all you older folk will be out at the Hollinger Athletic Field on Saturâ€" day at 2.30 to join us in our cries, "Yeah Team! Fight! Fight! Pight! BOYS‘ SPORTS » The boys of the Timmins High and Vocational School are very much inâ€" If you had strolled along the campus of T. H. V. last Thursday, you would probably have stopped to watch the IV A boys, apparently having a very interesting game of rugby. Yes! Inâ€" teresting does not describe it. These bright lads were so attentive to their game, that they were oblivious: to everything else, including the bell for the next period. The girls filed in from their P.T. class and sat down to wait for the arrival of the other half â€"of IV A before the lesson could begin. The teacher stood with the door open, waiting patiently. Piveâ€" tenâ€"fifteen minutes passed and he was still waiting. After twenty minutes, he gave up, closed the door, and sat down at his desk. There was no triâ€" gonometry that day, we .assure you. About five minutes after the twelve o‘clock bell had rung, the very sheepish and bewildered IV A lads strolled into the class to explain their absence. Surely P.T. cannot be more interesting than â€" trigonometry? ‘"‘Banish the thought," exclaim the studious studâ€" ents. â€" Somehow, in the future, we ly as ever. The truments â€" have varied a little this year, and, to keep all you folks up on the latest news, we‘ll give you a complete summary. There are the following:â€"8 regular violins, 1 clarinet, 4 trumpets, 1 alto horn, 1 irregular bass horn, 2 pianos, 1 bell player, 1 snare drum, and 1 bass drum. The orchestra is conducted by the very capable leader, Mr. Wallace Young, under whose guidance they performed so splendidly last year. Last week the orchestra played for the French play at Notre Dame de Lourdes, put on by the parishioners of the church. Among the selections played were the choral, "Come O Creators!" think the IV A~lads will those studious scholars. Well, dear reader, after many jlong months we meet once more.

Under the able leadership of Miss Gallagher, interâ€"form basketball games between teams of third, fourth and fifth forms are played every Tuesday and Thursâ€" day after school. Each team with its eye on the coveted bar which is offerâ€" ed to every member of the victorious team as a reward, plays seven games during the schedule. Miss Gallagher has ‘been giving lessons <about basketball rules and methods of refereeing so that every pupil can referee a game if callâ€" _ upon. _ _ Last week‘s results are: October 15â€"McNulty vs Rymer, 12â€" 4; Knott vs Ross, 12â€"3; McNulty vs 8â€"6. The teams of A. Teeple and L. D¢ Marco have remained unconquered during the three games they have alâ€" ready played. The game betwéen S. Malinowsky and B. Perreault offered a surprise to the spectators as the vicâ€" torious team was made up of fourth formers and the vanquished team of fifth formers. After Mr. Murray‘s remarks, Mary audel+ sang a solo. A speech on Rumania and King Carol, given by Lillian Brahant of fifth form, followed the solo.
