Student Council Reports
The Fifty Commandments of
High School Behavior
(Stolen from the Students' Handbook )
Edited for General Audiences by Brian Drummond
1. Thou shat not run in the halls; slide, it's more
fun.
2. Thou shalt not carry thumb tacks; place them
on seats so everyone can get the point. • •
3. Thou shalt not chew gum; place it on the
teacher's chair, this is appreciated more than
wormy apples.
4. Thou shalt not argue with teachers; get 'em
on Halloween Night.
5, Thou shalt not leave empty; beer bottles in
the washrooms; why let the janitors have
two cents?
6. Thou shalt not sell acid in the school; no
one wants ft anyhow.
7. Thou shalt not carry paper airelanes; throw
them around - spread the fun.
8, Thou shalt not laugh at thy teacher's jokes;
laugh at the teacher, there is more to laugh
at. -
9. Thou shalt not treat the Dean with disrespect;
just think, he gets paid for what he does.
10. Thou shalt not kneel in English class and
pray for the return of Jolly Wally.

By Barbara lszacovics
Miss Harris, formerly of
Paris, Ontario is one of the new
members of the teaching staff at
S.D.11,S. She has been working
.through an extension course at
the University of Western On-
tario ' this year. She teaches
*typing, shorthand and office
practice.
Now living in Seaforth, she
likes a small town and thinks
the people are terrific, Miss
Harris told us she enjoys teach-
ing here because the school is
very up-to-date and everyone has
"been very helpful and con-
siderate.
MISS JE ANE T TE HARRIS
She tries to keep up with the
fashion world and enjoys listen-
wing to today's music. Her fav-
ourite recording artists are
"Three Dog Night" and "Cre-
edance". Her favourite pastime
is roller skating and she also
plays the piano.
When asked about drugs, M,ss
Harris replied she does not see
why there should be a need for
them and does not fully under-
stand the problem.
Miss Harris' aim Is to suc-
ceed in being a good teacher and
the students at °S.D.H.S. wish
tier the best of luck.
By Kevan Kale
The Golden Bears won their
first •game against Listowel by a
Score of 2 to 1. The two points
Were due to punts by Bill Price.
The offence were able to contain
the Lietowel ball carrier in the
end zone for the two singles.
However, the team took
a setback at the hands of Exeter.
MR. JOHNSON
By Brian Drummond
Mr. Johnson grew up and got
his high school education in
London, Ontario. He obtained
his B.A. degree at St. Mary's
University in Halifax and his
B. Ed. at the University of
Toronto.
In 1969 the Hamilton Tiger
Cats drafted him to play foot-
ball but he Suffered a compound
fracture of his finger In train-
ing camp and was dropped. He
finished 'out the year playing
offensive end for the London
Lords and he still plays for
them this year.
MR. TERRY JOHNSON
Mr. Johnson teaches Physical
EdUcation and Health in addition
to coaching our football team. He
likes Seaforth and enjoys
teaching. His pet peeve is black '
socks in PE. He likes all sports,
and the records by Neil Diam end,
Bob Dylan and the Credence Clear
Water Revival.
When asked about "minis",
he said he liked them and hoped
that women wouldn't follow the
edicts of the fashion world., As
for "Womens Liberation," he
feels that women who can accept
equal responsibilities should
have equal rights. He also feels
that students in Seaforth should
make the high school more of a
center for social activities and
that too many just attend from
9 to 4 and don't join any extra
curricular activities.
The only score by Seaforth was
due to a fine run by Doug. Mc-
Kay. The final score was 46 to 7.
The team, although playoff
hopes are gone, plan to play the
spoilers for St. Marys and try
to keep them out of the playoffs.
Good-luck team against St.
Marys and also for next year.
By Nancy Traquair
Pollution Is an ever in-
creasing problem in today's
world. Mr. Davis, in a recent
interview stated his views on
pollution. He feels that no pro-
progress can be made to combat
the problem unless all factories
and agencies co-operate in .the
disposing of their waste products.

The little boy had bought his
grandmother a Bible for a birth-
day present and wanted to write
a suitable inscription on the fly-
leaf. He racked his brain until
he suddenly remembered that his
father had a book with an in-
scription of which he was very
proud. , So he decided to copy it.
On her birthday, grandma
opened her gift and was under-
standably startled to read the
following: "To grandma, with the
compliments of the author."

picture, please send them! A
newspaper box will be put in the

The Students' Council con-
sisting of four executive mem-
bers, eighteen form representat-
ives and two staff advisors meet
regularly to discuss those issues
and events pertaining to them
throughout the school year.
Since initiation activities
were abolished last year it was
decided that as an alternative a
"Dress-Up Week" with activit-
ies scheduled for-the last day of
the same would be organized.
Suitable costumes for each of
the three days (clash dress-up
and grub) were required of all
Grade 13
Plans Plays
Under the seperviston of Mr.
Burgess *some Grade 13 pupils
have decided to put on some plays
to take place of six long tedious
essays. "The Glass Menagerie"
under the direction of Janice
POw911 and Barbara McClure is
scheduled to be performed around
the tenth of February. Its cast
consists of Linda Feeney, Dar-
lene Elligsen, Gary Bennett and
Allan Sararas.
A second play, "Oh Dad, Poor
Dad, Mama's Hung You in the
Closet and Pm Feeling so Sad"
is under the direction of. Marg
Elligsen. Its cast consists of
Linda Bed ird, Danny Comte],
Terry Kunz and Dave Brady.
This play is scheduled for the
latter part of January.
Good luck to all the plays;

suffered certain punishments at
a "Kangeroo Court" held on the
last day of "Dress-Up Week."
Each year the Students'Coun-
ell -decides upon a project which
in some way will benefit the
student body. This year suggest:
ions were given and it was pas-
sed to conti nue the work on the
Student lounge. It is to be
renovated and additional furn-
iture, vending machines, etc.
installed. However,'at the point
of completion the senior mem -
bers of the student body must be
prepared to act as monitor&
In connection with money-
raising projects, there will. not
be a magazine campaign nor a
chocolate bar campaign. Sug-
gestions for other means of rais-
ing money are being considered
at present.
If possible, an assembly will
be held once every one or two
months on Fridays for movies,
demonstrations and the like.
Presently the Sa udents' Coun-
cil is engaged insetting students',
cards, planning for the annual
Hallowe'en dance to be held on
October e0th in the gymnasium
and for Commencement, another
upcoming event on November 6.
Many times you hear an of-
ficial's or department minister's
view of this problem but I would
like to voice the opinion of an
everyday teenager. Teenagers
are very concerned about pollut-
ion and they are anxious about
our teautiful, sandy beaches
being blackened with dirt and
debris that is washed in by the
water. We are concerned about
the lakes we swi min becoming
polluted and unsafe to swienin
and our plant life growing limp
becanae they are unable to
13reathe ,xtrr the thick, close air.
It" Wofild leggit the problem
"etnisiderably if soap factories
would refrain from using phos-
phate in the detergents they man-
ufacture. Phosphate has proved
to have been dangerous to plant
and animal life. Even though
Canada is the most conscious
country about pollution, in my
French Club
Seeks Help
The Junior French Club has
started out,to put it bluntly and
to the point, very poorly this
year. Upon signing up, this club
appeared to be quite successful
end large, but so far it has not
worked out this way. Under the
supervision of Mr. Farag, the
members of this club have been
listening to French records and
reading stories written in French
to expand their knowledge in
this language. This information
is quite useful and interesting,
and we are sure that some are
in "need of this free help. So
come on people, join the Junior
French Club and urge it on to
success,
