Salk Vaccine
Keeps Huron
Polio-Free
GODERICH — "Thanks • to
Salk vaccine," 1964 was the sev-
enth consecutive polio-free year
for Huron, Dr, R. M. Aldis,
MOH, reported to county °aim-
di at the January session. It
is hoped the health unit may
soon be able to add the. new
Sabin (oral-type) vaccine to its
armament against poliomyeli-
tis.
`Last year," the report stat-
ed, "marked an increase in the
incidence of hepatitit here, with
47 cases reported as against12
in 1963. There was one death
from thie cause in 1964. The
situation was the reverse of the
national experience,. which
showed hepatitis on the decline.
"Now endemic in the county,
animal rabies has been reported
at rates varying from 33 to 125
cases per year for the preced-
ing six years. Last year was
the lowest on record, with 33
cases as against 68 in 1963.
Only 28 exposed humans re-
quired the 14-day vaccine treat-
ment, compared with 74 in
1962,"
A breakdown of the statistics
regarding animals found to be
rabid showed 1964 as "the year
of 'the skunk". These numbered
12, foxes nine, swine eight,
steers three, and one dog.
The numbers checked at last
summer's county-wide TB sur-
Vey showed a slight decline
from 1960, at 23,337. At the
five Monthly chest clinks, 134
residents who have vaekete in-
active forms of tuberculosis axe'
followed Tegelarly, In addition,
these clinics receive patients ree
fereed by the.fancily physician
for special examination. This
free service was givcui $1.2 last
year,
"For certain large sewage
disposal• problems," the report
said, ethe stabilization pond or
lagoon has been, adopted lieke
with .success, the latest being
at two Central public schools.

Coleman was for many years
the secretary at the Depaet-
meat of Agriculture office here.
The MeEwans, Frank ("Tim-

The principal and staff of

Clarence Magee, 17, as the
school's representative to the
Student Leaders' Club.
Clare, a grade 12 student in
the five-year ants and science
course, is the son of Mr. and
Mrs. Clarence Magee, of Dins-
lay Terrace, Clinton.
Since grade three he has
been averaging upwards of 80

student. At school he is a mem-

Clinton Student Leader Lauds
Role Of Sports In School Work-
basketball and track and field
teams.
The student leader is a Boy
Scout and was a pitcher on the
Clinton baesbell team, Ontario
Midget "B" champions last
year. Clare is interested in the
Outdoors and hopes to pursue
a :career concerned with nature
and wildlife, though he admits
he hasn't definitely made up
his mind.
On the subject of the role
of school sports, he writes:
By CLARENCE MAGEE
Extra-curricular school sports
play a vital role in developing
a mature, responsible adult.
During' the four or five years
which the average teenager
spends in secondary school, he
advances a great distance along
the road to maturity.
Active participation in some
form' of sport
he''
a student
more than he ar she realizes,
mid one who concentrates whol-
ly on studying and high marks
without 'partaking in at least
one extra-curricular sport de-
prives himself of some valuable
lessons of realistic life.
Interform or house league
competitions provide ground.;
work for enjoyment and fulfill-
ment of adulthood. A .6i:in:Teti-
tor on this level learns the fun-
damentals of sports which can
be used recreationally later.
One acquires the knowledge
of teamwork or how to work
harmoniously with fellow pay-
ers, which is a necessity for
future success. By biding the
referee's decision, a competing
student learns to accept and
obey higher authority.
Defeat can be a rude and
crippling blow in this harsh
world, but one can learn to
cope with it on a small scale
in inter-form matches.
If a student gains a position
on a school team he , will defin-
itely profit from the experience.
The true meaning of teamwork
becomes , apparent in the "set-
Iter-spiker" combination of a
volleyball team, or the line
and back of a football team,
and this parallels the business
world in which employees work
together toward a common
goal.
"In other sports such as
sprinting, one is all on his own
striving to do his best, and
thus learns to be independent.
There is a challenge in sports.
Each play or manoeuvre is an
obstacle to be met or overcome.
By diligent, increasing prac-
tice, a player can develop and
perfect until he feels satisfac-
tion fpr Mastering a difficult
feat. ,
A school which /lacked sports
would be a school which lacked
an important aspect of com-
plete education.

Her essay topic is .on exami-
nations.
By LORRAINE DEVEAU
Three times a year students
are subjected to long endur-
ance tests called examindtions.
What is an examination? To a
teacher, an examination is the
test of his students' knowledge,
and an indication of this know-
ledge, or lack of it, to the stu-
dents. To a student, an exami-
nation is much more than that.
• At examination time he must
pour long hours into prepara-
tion, experience anxiety and
apprehension, and in some
eases, undergo great emotional
strain. Preparation for exami-
nations leads to frustration,
taut relationships with family
and friends, and hope for suc-
cess.
The predominant feeling a
student experiences at examina-
tion time is anxiety. Even if a
student believes he is fully pre-
pared, this anxiety invariably
follows 'him into, the examina-
tion • room, and remains With
him until he is well under way.
Occasionally, nervous break-
downs have been caused be too
much pressure at exam time,
although these cases are uhcom- ,
mon. •
Then, when the student
leaves the exam room, .he is
