A BY DOROTHY O'MALLEY Wingham District High wel- comes to its teaching staff this year a new member by the name of Mr. Aberle. Born and raised in Elmira, Ont., he received his elemen- tary and secondary schooling there. Not wishing to leave school Mr. Aberle taught one year of elementary school in Elmira. Feeling the call to travel he then went to Northern Ontario where he again taught elementary school for two years. Wishing to continue his edu- cation he went to the Waterloo Lutheran University for two years before coming to Wing- ham. He is at present teaching geography to grades nine, ten and eleven. Mr. Aberle enjoys travelling BY CHRIS CZERNIAWSKI 12B W.D.H.S. welcomes Mr. Brandon, a new teacher to the 196b-'7 teaching staff. A native of Clinton, he re- ceived his elementary educa- tion in Bay field and his second- ary school education in Clinton and London. After attending the University of Western On- tario and the Teachers' College in London, Mr. Brandon obtain- ed a position as an elementary school teacher in Grand Bend. During the next few years he held positions at Shakespeare, Becton, and Terrace Bay. At present Mr. Brandon is teaching history, geography, BERLE and he has made a trip to Eur- ope. His hobbies are playing the stock market and studying farming methods. His pet peeve is. students who are biding time in school. His opinions of W.D.H.S. are very high and he claims that the school is well run. The only complaint is that it is ov- er crowded. He thinks that our education- al system is an excellent one since it provides a course for everyone's ability. However, he believes that some students take a course because it is"eas- ier" and that this stalls the in- dividual's ability. His main aspiration is to be- come a good teacher. We wish Mr. Aberle all the possible success with his teach- ing career and hope he will be with us for many years. mathematics, and English to the two-year course students. When asked why he chose a teaching career, Mr. Brandon said it was because of security, challenge, and sufficient time for his hobbies which are hunt- ing, fishing, cards, and base- ball. Mr. Brandon's philosophy is "Be worth something to every- one but do not let anyone be- come too valuable to you." His main ambition is to retire at forty-five whether he can afford it or not. From all at the W.D.H.S. we wish Mr. Brandon the best in his teaching career. Teen Topics INTERVIEWER NORM CORRIN Question: Oracle Nines!

Camera Club BY KERRY STUCKEY Mr. Willis leads the cam- era club in its third year of op- eration. Under his guidance the club has grown both in fa- cilities and in members. In fact the club's membership has grown so much that there are now two groups -- the seniors (Grades 11, 12 and 13) who meet on Tuesdays and the jun- iors (Grades 9 and 10) who meet on Thursdays. The club meets to talk over cameras and in the school dark- room, which is completely and very well equipped, the mem- bers are instructed by Mr. Wil- lis in printing and enlarging their own snapshots. Several of the members are avid photographers for they can be seen snapping around the school. Doubtless, many of their accomplishments will ap- pear in this year's school year- book. And under the brilliant leadership of Mr. Willis, W .D. H.S. camera club will show its true colours. Students Visit Sarnia Plant BY IAN GRANT The grades 11 and 12 auto special students, also grade 10 C boys, 4'l in all, of Wingham District High School spent a very interesting day at the Pres- tolite factory in Sarnia last Thursday. The factory itself covers a little over seven acres of land and employs over 600 workers. Prestolite makes original and replacement parts for the elec- trical system of Chrysler and Ford cars and trucks. The boys arrived by bus at the factory just before noon. After lunch they were divided into groups to tour the factory, being free to ask the guides any questions, which were fully answered and explained. After the tour there was a very inter- esting question period and liter- ature about the factory was giv- en out during this period. They arrived back at the school at 6:30 p.m. after a very enjoyable and interesting trip. Only in Italy Italy recently ended its first national experiment with day- light saving time, There was Some minor controversy, such as whether tourists really liked to take supper in broad day- light, but on the whole, sum- mer time was well received. The chief complaint, The Fin- ancial Post reports, came from passengers who happened to be caught in trains at midnight on Sept. 24, when the clocks were put back. The Italian railways chose a direct method for re- adjusting their schedules. They simply stopped all trains for an hour to allow the clock to catch up. One reason experience is such a good teacher is that she doesn't allow dropouts. MR. BRANDON
