BIRD PEOPIEQHE SCHOOL SONG
Come, raise a cheer for the school we revere,
Nay we ever loyal be;
Our devotion grows as the bright wine flows
In loving cups for thee.
Black, Yellow, Red, hold them high overhead,
Our colours vroud shall fly;
We shall try our best and work without rest
For the St. ©. C. I. & V. 8.
In sports on the field we will never yield,
Yet_always play the game;
In the class, our work we will never shirk,
But strive for greater fame.
Black, Yellow, Red, hold them high overhead,
ur colours proud shall fly;
We shall try our best and work without rest
For the St. C. 0. 1, &V. 3.

Fight, team, fight.ATTENTION: GRADE NINE
a his year, as in others, you,-
the new students, are being ziven
a warm velcoue to our school (and
now your school!) along with home-
ork, Classwork, and extra-curric-
uler activities you hove certain
other resnonsibilities. .Une of the
most importend is having oride in
your school.
Yu the ast tiree or four ye re
school snirit in the Volieviste’ he
dranned, decreased, been eliminated,
or becone defunct;' whetever term
you use, it boile down to the fact
that it’ just isn't here enynore.
During the summer your Student Sen-
ate have been recking their brains
trving to fueure out how to get stu-
dents to nerticipate in some of
these vctivities. ‘There is no way
thot ve can force students to come
out ond nley footboll, be a cheer-
lesder, attend the games, or even
join the Actors Guild. So we deci-
Ged thot the best way to bring succ-
Cress to St. 0.C.1.6V.5. is to let
the students know what_ther can-do
around the school and let them know
how much fun there is waiting for
them.
At the oresent I'm not talkine
to those who couldn't csre less and
just come to school because they
aeve to or because they want to meke
trouble. These neonle any school
can do without. But let's face it,
there sre some, their numbers are
few. n I talk sdout these peonle
I talk from exnerience, because I
was almost ar bad as one. shen T
first came to this school, I skivpe¢
classed, forgot all about homework,
caused Srouvle, end filled out aon-
roximately twenty-five conéuct rep=
orta(vou'll learn about these later)
The next year it was just as bad;
I still wes causing trouble and fil-
ling out conduct reports. But this
vest year with help of © couvle
(7of vecchers I learned of fun to be
~had around the sciool in ways other
then cutting uv. My behevior still
lesives something to be desired(my
conduct renorts were limited to
This past year was the best year
I have ever spent in school and I think
this year is going to be even better.
Let me tell you about a little of
of last, year's fun, I started out the
year by playing football. I'd always
wanted to play because it has been a
favourite sport of mine, but I vas always
afraid of what other people would think.
Besides, who has time for football when
there are office detentions to go to.
‘Also, when I started all the other players
looked about six foot two and seemed to
weigh about two hundred pounds. This
wasn't the case, It turned out that most
of the other guys were just like me and
even if we only won two games all year wo
had a good time. This reminds me—when
we started practices last year we had about
fifty players out of a school of eight
hundred students. I know that not everyone
Likes or is able to play such sports
but this small figure was ridiculous.
And the same applied to the number of
spectators.
SOLUTION--YORE SCHOOL SPIRIT
Last year was just great, and ny
only regret is that I didn't start in
grade nine. This is the whole point of
writing this column--to tell you that
there are plenty of vays to have fun around
the school; plenty of sports activities;
plenty of academic opportunities; and a
variety of things to do which should please
everyone. So don't be like me and wait
two years to find this out. Go out now,
participate in whatever you can, see what
you can, and if you do, you and I and the
whole school will have one S09!
good time!
