He said he enjoys the variety of conditions which cross country offers. Last year, Wareing finished ninth in the all­ Ontario high school cross country championships. This year the son of Mr. and Mrs. Ron Wareing took both the senior 1,500 metre and 3,000 metre events at WOSSA, held a few weeks ago in London. In both races Wareing ran away from the pack with Wareing slashing 14 seconds off his personal best in the 3,000 metres. The soft spoken young man attributes most of his suc­ cess to high school coach Joe Fulop.

While at Fanshawe he hopes to continue running for the London-Western Club and to form a cross country club at the college.

A key ingredient to a successful career in track and field is one's it’s up to you to make sure your child is immunized against disease Diseases like polio, diphtheria, tetanus and whooping cough are as much of a threat to your child's health today as they were years ago. They're very conta­ gious and can cause serious illness or even death. It's up to you to protect your child against them, and we can help you. The Ontario Ministry of Health provides vaccines to immunize children against polio, diphtheria, whooping cough, tetanus, measles, mumps and rubella (German measles). These vaccines are free, and your Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) pays a fee to the doctor for administering them to your child. If you have children 2 months or over, make sure they're protected. Take them to your family physician now; or have them immunized by your local health unit. And while you're there, find out if you need a booster shot yourself. It takes more than one visit to have your child immunized completely.To help you remember when to take your child back to the doctor we've prepared a handy pamphlet. It will tell you which diseases your children should be immunized against and at what ages.
