JUNIOR HIGH
NEED NOTED

A discussion OF the addition OF a
ninth grade and the organization
OF junior high school in the VIII
low Run Public Schools is featured
in q resume, written by Robert
Stevenson, principal OF Foster
School. II describes a survey now
being made among sixth, seventh,
and eighth grade pupils and their
parents TO determine educational
need in the community. Early re-
turns on these questionnaires indi-
cate that the pupils and parents
would like TO have junior high
school established in this school
district" II is stated.
The proposed addition OF a ninth
grade and the organization OF a
junior high school would improve
the educational opportunities OF
students in the district, according
to Mr.. Stevenson.
When our pupils travel to an
other district In order to attend
the ninth grade, they are confront
ed with certain disadvantages" he
says. They are suddenly subject
ed TO a new school organization to
which they will have to readjust.
They cannot participate fully in
the schools activities due TO trans
portation handicaps."
He warns that failure OF a school
to meet the pupils needs may re-
suit in his quitting school or be-
coming an attendance problem.
The best way to meet the pupils
needs, according to Mr.. Stevenson,
is to provide a junior high school
in his own district so he will not
be faced with the problems of re-
adjustment and transportation.
He indicates that. II junior high
school were approved in the special
election April 29. new subjects
would eventually be added to the

QUEBEC PARADISE
FOR ALL SPORTS
MEN IN QUEST OF
FISHING

QUEBEC; p. Q..~..q946)--~To un-
derstand why. the Province OF
Quebec should remain the most re-
markable fishing range on the
North American continent is
simple matter after all.
In the first place, one must take
physical geography into considera-
ton. To the north. the boundaries
of the Province meet the icy wat
ers OF Hudson Strait. To the west,
they reach the expanse Of Hudson
Bay. To the east, they extend
along the wilderness Of Labrador
and encompass the Gulf of st.
Lawrence, where are situated the
famed Quebec marine fisheries OF
North Shore, Gaspe Peninsula and
Madeleine Islands. The southern
part OF the Province includes the
beautiful Ottawa River and the
great majestic ST. Lawrence Riv-
er; il borders on four American
states, namely: New York. Yer
mont. New Hampshire and Maine.
The vast territory of the Prov
ince is nearly equal to the COM
bined areas Of the twenty-one states
east of the Ohio and Mississippi
Rivers. The Ice Age has left 1t
strewn with thousands and thous-
ands OF lakes and streams, which
are young, according to the
geologist
While many Of those lakes and
streams are situated in open coun-
try, most OF them shine amid deep
forests touching the waterside.
Fish and game are plentiful
thanks to such environment, and
thanks also to policy calculated
to foster wildlife without unduly
restricting the sportsman's activi-
ty.
In Quebec, old and new ways Of
living sometimes blend together
harmoniously, sometimes contrast
peculiarly, and that contributes TO
the pleasure of visitors attracted
by the fame Of the Provinces par
adise for fishermen. adv.

In a spectacular upset, Warner

round OF the Community Basket.

ed Willow Village quintet, Al to

ing Tuesday night.
Displaying an air-tight defense
and a steady offense, the surpris-
ing Dairymen succeeded in stiff
ling the Villagers scoring aces,
Tony fonda and Hershel Burns.
limiting each TO a record low in
individual scoring. fonda, who
had previously averaged close to
20 points a game, managed to ac-
cumulate only eight tallies Tues
day night. Burns scored IL points,
somewhat lower than his season
average.
The contest was close all the
way to the final gun. with both
teams holding the lead at various
points during the tilt. The Dairy
men led 9 to 6 as the first quarter
ended and 19 to II at the close of
the half. The Villagers pulled
ahead in the third quarter, 81 to
20, but lost their lead during the
final minutes OF the game.
Things looked bad for the War
ner Dairy cagers during the last
quarter when their high-scoring
center, Hugh Ableson, was taken
out OF the game on personal fouls.
However, the Milkmen substituted
freely, even utilizing Chuck Opie
who was suffering from poison
ivy infection, and managed to con-
solidate their lead
Two factors won the game for
the underdog Dairymen: their abil-
ity to bottle up fonda and Burns.
and the Villagers inability to sink
free throws. The Warner Dairy
cagers put two men on fonda
whenever he even glanced at a
basket. did the same with Burns,
and forced the rest of the Villagers
to shoot from the middle OF the
court.
Meanwhile, the Villagers sank
only OF 81 free throws during the
contest, thereby muffing their
chance to topple the Dairymen. In
contrast, the winners sank 9 out
OF 13 gift baskets, much better
average.
Top scorers for the Dairymen
were Hugh Ableson, with II points.
and Neil Cason, with IL. For the
Villagers, Burns was top man with
IL, followed by fonda and Jim
Butler with s apiece.
AS result Of Tuesdays game,
the Warner Dairy quintet will face
West Court a week from tonight in

game will be at 1880 in the Village
