On Eaturady, Novemlber 17, the P"irls' volleyball teams trav- elled up tOr Orillia to attempt to get rthe GEOrgian Bay Champ- iS•:Jshin. We star'ed out at 8:31 a.m. but we soon had bus troubl'} and. as it was not advisable to hitchhike, we were late. Th? first time the bus s'to•nro•ed was prac- tically on l'Orp of the nilroad tracks at Midhurst. When we re::ched Orillia, a tow truck of- fered to get us up to the high school, but r.srther than suffer this ignomy, the engine decide-l to runr.
Unfortunately, the results of the games were not highly sat- i.~faot·ory f o r u s . I n t h e s e n i o r e-irls' game, Alliston came first, with Midland runninrg a close SJ~cond. Collingwood and Orillia tied for third place and Barrie came last. The junior girls did tetter.
