Winning essay Because of the steady increase of the world,'s population, (eighty-one million annually), conservation is a world project to save all our natural resources for all our needs. There are eight kinds of conservation: (1.) soil, (2.) water, (3.) forest, (4.) wildlife, (5.) grazing lands, (6.) mineral, (7.) recreation, and (8.) urban areas. Each and every one of these individual projects are needed so we can feed, clothe anti , shelter the two hundred and. Batt'n Around — Continued from Page 4 know when we may ',require Bob's expert medical assistance! Most fans perhaps don't realize the work that Bob does and just how valuable a member he is on the Hawks. Over the weekend, we watched him in ac- tion on several occasions as three of the juniors were cut by sticks and a couple of more were felled by hard shots hitting their ankles or by stiff body checks. A fallen player quickly prompts Bob to spring into ac- tion as he darts across the ice, with towel in hand, to render assistance. He's a conscientious fellow who took a special course at Fanshawe College to improve his training for treating cuts, bruises and other problems that befall hockey players. In addi- tion, he looks after the equip- ment and makes certain every player has everything required to take to the ice. However, his greatest at- tribute is that of team jokester and our lengthy trip was punc- tuated with frequent jibes between Bob and the players. But it's no laughing matter when a player gets hurt and we have good reason to believe that Bob's efforts are greatly ap- preciated by the players although they probably will never give him the satisfaction of saying so themselves. After 'all, he wouldn't know how to take a compliment from them anyway, nor would they know how to take one from him.

I chose to write about water pollution because it is the most important conservation problem in the world. Water is needed for drink, cleanse ourselves and shelter, water our crops and produce electricity. Even though water makes up approximately three-quarters of the earth's surface, only three percent is fresh, usable water, and that small amount is our only source unless the salt is removed from the ocean water. Since the demand for fresh water increases every day, all our water must be used wisely and carefully, so we have enough left for future requirements. Scientists across the world are experimenting with improved methods to purify polluted water. Industries and governments are spending thousands of dollars every year to prevent depositing refuse in fresh water and to find ways of recycling the waste products for other uses. Even Mother Nature herself conserves water by having the vegetation absorbing rain water and holding it to the ground. If there wasn't such a natural cycle, a rapid run- off would occur. This would cause floods, remove valuable topsoil, and would only leave a small amount of water for use in dry seasons. To conserve water, people may protect plant life, and reproduce them in barren areas, Also, dams prevent floods by controlling the flow of water. Dumping refuse in the lakes and rivers is not the only water pollution. Also, people upset the natural cycle of water by plan- ting crops, and building factories and homes. This may destroy the natural plant cover already growing there and reduce the natural storage in the ground and increase the amount of run-off. In my opinion, water con- servation is one of man's most pressing problems for the present and the future. Without water, the world would literally die because all life forms are dependent on water, So, a good motto would be: Conserve water. Your life may depend on it!
