Cadets who have completed their first year of university attend the Reserve Officers' School which is designed to pro- vide them with the maximum amount of basic military back- ground in the shortest possible time. The duration of the course is slightly under six weeks and the cadets spend the majority of this time in attending lectures on various military subjects in- cluding general service know- ledge, service writing, military law, leadership, world affairs, first-aid and nuclear defense. A practical course on eff ec tive speaking is also included. The remainder of the course consists of periods of drill, physical edu- cation and various sport activi- ties. Reserve Officers' School IS staffed mainly by members of the Air Force Primary Reserve and university staff officers of the University squadrons estab- lished at 18 universities across Canada. These officers combine a career as a university pro- fessor in the winter months with a part time career as a military officer.

This type of person is getting fewer in number, he said, and, instead, church goers are those who really want to go to church. Thus, a weeding out process is going on in church attendance, Actually, there is a spiritual awakening going on in England and this has been revealed even in the visit of the American evangelist, Billy Graham, said Rev, Brian Gandon. Rev. Mr. Candor: is a trustee of what 1s known in England as The Ministry of Christian Information.Advertisements such as the following are placed in the personal columns of leading British newspapers: "What do Christians believe about forgive- ness, prayer, the Bible, Church, After-Life? Free leaflets on ba- sic Christian beliefs (inter- church). No follow-up unless re- quested. Confidential.Write- Ministry of Christian informa- tion, Ohiddingly, Lewes, Sus- sex." As a result of these advertise- ments, says Rev. Mr. Gandon, thousands of replies come in from people in all walks of life. The response gives every evidence of the desire of people in England for Christian worship, Rev. Mr. Gandon plans to expand and renew his efforts in this field of en- deavor on his return to England. On Thursday, June 23, the gra- duation Of 183 cadets from the Reserve Officers' School at the Canadian Forces Base at Cen- tralia will mark the end of an era. For 1'7 years this school has provided basic Military training for those of ficer s-in-training who are attending universities at various centre across Canada. The location of the school, has gone full circle, starting at the Air Base in London in 1949 and then after spending several years at the Royal Military College at Kingston and the College Mill- taire Royale at St. Jean, Quebec, it has been held for the last six years at the Air Force Base at Centralia, Ontario.

Now that the summer season is upon us and the 1965-66 school year has officially ended, it is time to bid adieu to you—my faithful readers. I have enjoyed writing the column for the high school this year. I hope that I have kept you informed on what has happened at SHDHS. This year, report cards will be mailed out, instead of having the students return to school for them. Report cards should be received by all, either June 29 or June 30. The yearbooks arrived Wed- nesday, June 22. They may be obtained, along with the balance of your caution fee at the school, any time during the summer months. I hope that everyone has a marvellous summer! Please be sure to drive and play safely as I want to see all of you around after the summer is over. Happy Holidays! Mt.

"If we take a pessimistic at- titude about this addition we have given up our opportunity" said Mr. Elmer Bell of the SHDHS Board. ((Let's be optimistic. We are not going to suffer any dis- aster here, regardless of the Centralia closing. If we do post- pone the addition and we have already done so several times— we are going to be met with an architectural cost which will re- sult in scrapping our present plans. Every delay we have made has cost us money. We have now reached the point of no return. With a vocational wing to our school here the percentage of drop-outs at the school will be lowered. At this stage we can not quibble over whether we will have one or two classrooms too many. Plans are even being dis- cussed to add certain features to the public school curriculum and these rooms, if necessary could be used by public school pupils. It will cost us a lot more money if we delay than if we proceed with the addition. I believe that the CFB, Centralia will be cut down considerably but there will be no disaster in the long run. TheSH- DHS Board can not be held up in its plans forever, If council does not act it means council has no longer any confidence in the school board."
