Richard McKinley sum-
marize,s his learning experiences
there:
"In my opinion all schools and
other groups should have a chance
to visit Camp Sylvan. It brings
people 'to a better understanding
and greater appreciation of our
outdoors. It is a beneficial
'learning experience that cannot
be matched in the ordinary class-
room; For many, (especially town
and city dwellers) it is simply
a chance to get out into the
great outdoors and come closer

course as a social worker.
Basketball
In girls' basketball play at
Seaforth last Thursday our Junior
and Senior teams met Wingham.
' In both kames, Seaforth, in
steady play, led Wingham until
the last minutes of the fourth
Period. In these last minutes,
Wingham in spurts made lust
enough poiflts to edge Seaforth
out.
to nature.
"By visiting at Camp Sylvan
the history of the old village
seemed to come to life. We
followed trails traversed by
settlers 120 years 'ago. we
could understand what life was
like then by sleeping in the
covered wagons and examining
remains of the village. In our
cemetery study we were able to
discover many facts of interest
such as, the oldest and youngest
people who died, the different
countries from w:lich they came,
and when the majority 'died, and
for what reason.
"Along the wagon trail we
saw where stables, houses and
blacksmith shops once stood. The
reasons for the building of the
settlethent and also the reasons
why it didn't prosper and died
out were discussed. The ceme-
tery study was a part of this.
"We learned much about
forestry and some of the in-
struments used by foresters and
their operation. Samples of pine,
cedar, etc. were studied and we
learned to identify them, We,
discussed the hazards to trees
and the prevention of these
hazards.
"Part of the Sylvan trip in-
eluded a visit to Rock Gle'n which
gave us a chance to study real'
fossils which we found ourselves.
This proved to he a worthwhile
and interesting experience.
"During our visit to Camp
Sylvan we received a very
informailve lecture on astrono-
my, but unfortunately we didn't
have a chance to .observe . the
stars because of bad weather.
"I think the good quality 'of
Camp Sylvan is its ability to
teach you about nature, history,
science and many other topic's
in a way that no school class-
room cah. Outdcior' education
is enjoyable and informative. I
wish our stay at Camp
Sylvan could 'have been longer."

Film society
There have been some
changes in the structure of the
Film Society (formerly the C,ine
Club). Besides presenting to
the public films-of late release
(tickets for which may be had by
subscription when available), the
Film Society plans on preparing
a film history of the year 1973-
74 at S.D.H.S.
This will probably follow the
line of the Yearbook, and will he
shown to the student body at the
end of the year.
Also this year, Mr. Kennedy
will be joining 'with Mr. Onn
to teach members the art of
photographing still pictures, es-
pecially with a 35 mm. camera.
He will also show those interested
how to develop film; copy photos
from books; or copy slides or
even prepare film strips.
Mr. Onn will show those in-
terested eight mm. motion pic-
tura preparation; cleaning and
repairing motion picture pro-
jectors; running the projector
and sound system and later in
the year, details and technique
in video tape productions.
