What does school have to
offer besides the educational
subjects? Many of us think that
there is nothing else to do at
school but learn those subjects.,
Of course that is what Is Meant
for us to do! But how many of
us participate in other activities
as well as those planned for us?
Not very many! •
Extra curricular activities
are either associated with
physical education or educational
subjects. Physical educational
activities are a wide avenue for
many of our sports minded stu-
, dents. Students May participate
in either extramural or intra-
mural sports. Extramural sports
give the students a chance to
compete against, others to' make
the team and then compete against
other schools for the hoqour of
the school. Intramural sports
give the students a chance to
compete against other grades. In
either case, it gives the student
a taeling of accomplishment and
well being. It is also a stren-
uous and healthy way to work
off an anger that has been build-
ing up for a while.
Educational activities include
such things as FrenchClub, math
club, drama and camera clubs.
They age an excellent- way for
a student to gain more4aforma-
tion in a more interesting way

such things as paintings, sketches, stuffed animals,

1971 Cougar
By lowering the wholesale prices and by trimming
the suggested dealer margins, Ford of Canada has
reduced the manufacturer's suggested retail price on
Mercury Cougar models by $396 to $421. On Mustang
models by $329 to $378. •
This step has been taken in order to achieve volume
sales of both cars and timed to coincide with the peak
Spring -and Summer sales season.
Nothing has been taken from or changed on Cougar
or Mustang. Mercury Cougar is still the kind of car it
has always been. Sleek, stylish, comfortable and superbly
engineered. The 351 cubic inch V-8 engine is still
standard. And so are the glove soft, hi-back bucket seats,
the 3-speed floor mounted stick-shift with consolette, and
the sequential turn signals. These are just some of the

many -features that make Cougar so distinctive.
And what a chance to move into the wonderful
world of MuITang! You'll find a new lift for your
personality in all exciting world of'bucket seats,"`floor-
shifts, and a choice of engines that have helped make
Mustang one of the most popular cars of all time. Hardtop,
Convertible, Sportsroof, Boss 351, Grande or Mustang
Mach I. New low prices on every sensational model.
Now it is possible for you to
own'a new Mustang or Cougar
for a lower price than at any
time since 1967.
And it's all hcippened

They improve student and teacher

On April 16, 1970, Inspector
Bannon received a disturbance
call from Mrs. MacLean. Upon
arrival he found the Muir resi-

and furniture were strewn about
everywhere. In diebedroOm
the Inspector found the accused'
standing over the half dead child
swearing profusely at it. The
child arrived dead,at the hospital
and Mrs. Muir(C. McLaughlin)
was charged with murder.
The court finds out from
questioning Dr. Mennell that the
death of the child could have
been caused by a severe beating
given by one of the parents, but
the Dr. could not state this was
the, actual 'cause of death.
Mrs. MicLeari (the neighbor)
explained that the., Mutrs were
very noisy and that Ts/tr. Muir,

• BEHIND SC ENES „e•
When we started the play
"Inside Lester", seven months
ago, we didn't take it very ser-
iously until a month before, the
presentation. Then it was a rush'
all the way. 'Wen it got down to
the makeup it was fun, at least for
the ones who were' putting it on.
During dress rehearsal, when
makeup was being tried out, one
of our cast really-resembled a
stop sign. Despite all our worry:- _
big, the play went off-Viiry well.
This work was rewarded by a
trip to.the Pizza Patio in
ich where everyone enjoyed
them ;elves. `c By :Susan Purdy.
