To Make Better PrograM Of Study New Teacher Was Former Editor Sports Official (By Jayne Yes, 12.A2) At present a physical educa- tion, health. and math teacher at CHSS, Mrs. Harper received her education at Toronto wh- ere she grew up. She was enrolled at Victoria College, of the University of Toronto, where she followed a general arts and physical edu- cation program for four years whereafter she attended OCE for one year, Active 'in intercollegiate work Mrs. Harper was on the Var- sity senior intermural basket- ball team for two years and was also the editor of the university paper, "The Var- sity". Mrs, Harper has taught a variety 'of subjects in 'high schools at Port Colborne, Pembroke and Toronto. For the eleven years follow- ing her teaching at Toronto, she was a full-time housewife. This, 'however, did not prevent her from reforeeing countless basketball games and teaching Red Cross and Royal Life Sav- ing Society swimming, Her other activities include or have included being first treasurer, and then president, of the Huron County Cancer Society Unit and being on the executive of the Maple Leaf Chapter IODE in Goderich. Mrs. Hamper with her four children — two girls and two boys — and her husband live in Goderich. Her husband is a chartered accountant. 0 Cecil H. Cooper Worked For Firm for Sixty Years A life-long resident of Clin- ton, Cecil H. Cooper, passed away Thursday morning fol- lowing a heart attack, He was in 'his 79th year. Son o fthe late Joab Cooper and Mary Ann Higgins, Mr. Cooper was a piano veneer man at Sherlock - Manning Piano Ltd. for 60 years: He is survived 'by his wife, the former Allie Allison; five sons, Clifford, Edwin and Don- ald, all of Clinton; Harvey, Lenclon; Clayton, Toronto; five daughters, Mrs. Percy (Elsie) Elliott, Port Colborne; Mrs. Jack (Helen) Fraser, Hayfield; Mrs, Emmerson (Mildred) Ed- wards, Clinton; Mrs. Edward (Mary) Hudson, Windsor; Mrs. Harry (Frances) HanSford, Toronto; sister, Mrs. Daniel Nash, Stratford. Mr. Cooper was a member (By Rita MeMleliael, 1281) It was 'announced earlier this fall . there would, be only two sets of formal examinations for grades .9 to 12 this year instead of three sets as in previous years, When I asked for opinions on this system, I got 'the fol- lowing answers Agnes Dolmage, 9)31 don't like the idea because you Nave 'to write .all 'the exams.' The other way you might be able to get put of writing some at June, This way you have to pass most of them both times or you fail the year, Arthur McMichael, 9134 — am not in favour of the idea because you will have 'to study a lot more when exams do finally come. Clara Salverda, 10133 — I don't like the. idea of two sets of exams because now you have to write all 'the exams while you could get out of writing some when the finals come, Evelyn Johnston, I2S1 —The examinations will 'be consider- ably hard for us this year, since we. are in the Special New Parliament Stimulates More Competition?? (By Murray Blacker- 1.1A2) This year CHSS is trying a new form of student adminis- tration called "Student Parlia- ment". This has been tried in other areas of Canada and England having success and growing popularity. The student body is divided into four houses: Gold, Orange, Green and Purple. Each house has an executive to plan ac- tivities. EaCh class has the students divided evenly among the four houses with a boy and girl representing each house in each class. Mr. Bob Welsh 'is advisor to the group. This parliament's purpose 'is to stimulate comp- etition among 'the houses 'in academic, athletic and extra -curricular activities. There are points given to winning houses and' achieve- ment bars in specific fields are giVen. This is in its experi- mental state and the future will determine its success at CHSS, Here are varions stud- ents' opinions on this: Mary Ellen Andrews, 11A1— I think It is a very good 'idea because with a school of our size, it presents much less con- fusion. Barb Pegg, 11A2 — I think it is as better system of stud- ent representation for :CHSS. than the student council. The school is now 'too large to have a good council with representa- tion from every class. Danny McCooeye, 11A4 — I think it 'is a very good idea because it gives 'the students a chance to come together in good" competition and to help better the school, Jim. Francis, 1113 — I • don't like the idea where there is no class representative. , of Wesley-Willis. United Chur- ch, and the service was con- ducted on Saturday from the Beattie funeral home by the minister of the church, Rev. C. G. Park, Interment was in Clinton cemetery. Pallbearers included ThomaS Elliott, Keith Cooper, William Cooper, Jack Fraser, Howard Edwards and Gary Cooper, John and Bruce Cooper and Larry Hudson were flower- bearers. Commercial Department. I feel that three sets of exams would have lessened this burden. At June it will be pretty rough to study all the year's work, half of which we have never had exams on before. Three sets do not lessen the hard work, but they do make a bet- ter program of study. Sue Bartriff, 11132 — I think that 'this system of examina- tions 'is quite poor. The res- ults in June, I think, will be enough to show that CHSS should go back to her old way of examinations. Carol Steep, 11132 — I think this. is the worst system that our school has ever adopted. I am sure that when 'the res- ults come out in June they will 'realize that it has been a mistake. All 'the people I asked dis- approved of the new system. However, these are only a few of the students at CHSS. Many probably have good points for the ne* system also.
