Greathead, or “Wild Bill" as he is known at Pinecrest won his first feature race last Saturday night, a popular victory with the more than 3,000 spectators. Only a week before "Wild Bill” had shaved a heavy beard that had become his trademark to wrestling fans in the southern Uri- ited States. For, when the snow arrives and stock cars are put into hibernation, Greathead heads his 285 pounds southward for a tour of the south‘s professional wrest- ling circuit. Greathead has a tremendous capacity for work. He’ll wrestle every night of the week if he can findubllling and all summer long he can be found night after night on the province's stock car tracks. his huge frame jammed into the driver's seat of his small coupe. Lately. he has been racing five and slx nights a week in the sport that has suddenly caught the imagina- tion of the public. Pinecrest fans have taken the big, good-natured fellow to their hearts and every Wednesday and Saturday night the cry can be heard, “Come on, Wild Bill.” The following are the promotion Lists for Richmond Hill Separate School, June 1952.

Jefferson School Ratepayers Discuss School Bus Service There was a good attendance at the Ratepayers meeting held at Jefferson School last Tuesday ev- ening in spite of the very warm weather. Following the opening remarks and welcome by the chairman of the board of trustees, Mr. Dickson Miller, a letter from Miss Rosilyn Van Norman was read. Miss Van Norman stated her decision to leave Jefferson has not been with- out regret as she has enjoyed her assmlation with Mr. Green and the children of the school. Mr. Miller then spoke of Miss Audrey Leary, who will teach at Jefferson next term and said the board was pleased to secure Miss Leary who is a very capable teacher and well- known in the district. Miss Leary taught the junior classes from 1933-38 when the overflow from the old school studied in St. John‘s Parish Hall. It was also announced that Lake Wilcox school had rented the old Jefferson school for their overflow of pupils Mr. Miller 'said the board hopes to do some landscaping to further enhance the appearance of the new school and donations toward this work would be very accept- able. The board would also like to hear if anyone has a useable 01d piano for the use of the school and the community club. Speaking of the community club Mr. Miller mentioned the weekly baseball games which have met with so much enthusiasm. He also remarked on the friendly spirit of fellowship which has permeated this community through the organ- ization of the Jefferson School Community Club. Mr. J. Passmore, trustee read a report from Mr. Galpin, school inspector regarding teaching, dis- cipline and organization of the school. One remark worthy of every parent‘s attention was that any absenteeism on the part of the pupils means a cut in the grant made to Jefferson School by the government. It was stressed by the chairman that the bus service is a means of safety protection for the children, who would otherwise have to face the traffic on Yonge St. After a good deal of discussion it was de- cided to continue the bus service on the same schedule, and a fur- ther investigaion relative to ex- tending the service will be made. A committe for this investigation will be formed of those most vit- ally interested and further facts, figures and information will be gathered to be presented at the next ratepayers meeting. The main topic of interest‘ for the evening, school bus service, was then discussed fully and ev- eryone 'present took part!’ in the discussion. The bus service was inaugurated when the junior classâ€" es were first housed in St. John's Parish Hall.
