Chocolate Bars
BY SALLY GALBRAITH
The chocolate bar drive has
been a complete success this
year. We have sold 1000 doz.
chocolate bars which will help
the students' activities con-
siderably. The top salesmen
for each day are Paul Gardner,
Herman Rigling, Murray Mac-
Donald, Dianne Chamney, Paul'
Guest, Bill Kerr and Herman
Rigling.
Each of the above will re-
ceive $5.00 for being top sales-
man on a particular day. The
other winners for the grades,
classes and the school have not
been figured out yet.
The Students' Council would
like to thank all students for
giving your support by selling
these chocolate bars, and also
thank everyone that bought
from the students to help fin-
ance activities.

MR. MILOSEVIC
BY DONNA MUNDELL 11A
L This distinguished looking
gentleman is. Mr. Milosevic,
who is in charge of room 100.
He was born in Yugoslavia
where he obtained a secondary
school education comparable
to Grade 13 of Ontario. He be-
gan a university course in me-
chanical engineering but at the
end of two years, his education
was interrupted. At this time
in his young life, Mr. Milose-
vie was a prisoner in a P.O.W.
camp in Germany for four and
a half years.
In 1950 Mr. Milosevic im-
migrated to Wallacehurg, On-
tario, Here he was employed
in engineering at Schultz Die
Casting Company. In 1954 he
graduated from Ryerson and
proceeded as a machine de-
signer in Sarnia Prestolite Ltd.

desire to move again until this
year when he ventured to Wing-
ham.
Since he has come, thehigh
school has him hard at work
teaching mechanical drafting to
grades nine, ten, eleven,
twelve. (This is the first year
for mechanical drafting at our
school.) Since this gentleman
is qualified in mechanical and
electronics technology he is
quite capable of his duties.
He decided he would like to
teach because night classes,
which he had previously in-
structed, were quite successful
and because he enjoys working
with young people. Personally,
I think Mr. Milosevic is one
step ahead of the students. He
says, "I look forward to coming
back to the classroom after
long hours of work." However,
between the hours in the class-
room and the hours spent mark-
ing exams he enjoys stamp col-
lecting and electronics.
Mr. Milosevic feels that to-
day's educational system defin-
itely could be and should he
improved, l le thinks the
school and students should have
more communication with in-
dustry so that students would
know what is going on outside
and would be able to meet the
challenge of industry after
graduation.
Mr. Milosevic has observed
that Wingham has an excellent
high school and hopes that the
citizens are proud of Wingham
District High School. "How-
ever," he says, "there is one
disappointing feature; that is
the shortage 01 housing accom-
modations. (Ills wife and
children still reside in Sarnia.)
Perhaps the town should try to
improve this situation and in
doing so, attract more good
quality teachers."
On behalf of the student
body, I would like to say,
"c;ood Luck, Mr. Milosevic.;
we wish you the best."

good runners.

Juniors with 16 points and the
Intermediates with 18 points
while the Seniors came third
with 38 points.
History Club
MARY SCHWARTZENTRUBER
If you peek into room 214
next Thursday in the activity
period, you will see a group of
students, listening intently,
each leaning forward in his
desk. Then, looking more
closely you will see that some
are frowning their disapproval
while others smile in agree-
ment.
The activity? -- History
Club. The discussion?-- "Is
the U.N. of any use in solving
world problems?" Or perhaps,
"Should Red China be admitted
to the U.N.?"
History Club is a newly-
formed club in W,D.H.S. The
club members chose the fol-
lowing executive: President,
John Blackwell; vice- president,
Jim Graham; secretary-treasur-
er, Pat Currah. Mr. Higgs is
the advisor.
Although we have not final-
ized our plans for the year,
there will be many interesting
activities including debates,
lectures, films and a trip.
If you have a broad know-
ledge of history and current
events, come to History Club
and express your opinion. If
history is your weaker subject,
come and learn
A mother removed a print of
"Whistler's Mother" from the
wall and her small son asked
her later, "Where's the picture
of Grandma watching TV?"
When a teacher asked her
class to write out the Ten Com-
mandments, one boy put down,
for the Fifth Commandment,
"Humor thy father and thy mo-
ther."
MR. SIMPSON
BY DEBBY GIBSON 9A
Another new teacher who has
chosen Wingham District High
School as his first teaching posi-
tion is Mr. Simpson.
He was born in Midland, On-
tario, but at an early age mov-
ed to Galt where he spent his
elementary and secondary
school years. It was in hishigh
school years that Mr. Simpson
felt he wanted to become a
teacher. This wish was fulfill-
ed when he graduated from Mc-
Master University, Hamilton,
where he majored in history.
He is now teaching history, sci-
ence and business math.
His opinion of W.D.H.S. is
a good one, He believes it has
good teachers and well behaved
students. Having seen only one
school game he has not yet de-
cided what kind of school spirit
is shown here.
Mr. Simpson enjoys golfing,
skating and music. His ambi-
tion is to live a happy, con-
tented life. His life's highlight
was graduating from university.
A student in school just mark-
ing time until he can drop out
is Mr. Simpson's "pet peeve".
Ile also believes in the new
cirriculum outline because he
feels a good choice of courses
is important for best scholastic
results.
I'm sure we all wish Mr.
Simpson the best of luck in the
future,
"I can't understand why you
are leaving us. Is it working
conditions? hours? the pay?"
"Conditions are wonderful and
enjoyable. The hours are just
right. The pay is good."
"Then why wily why are
you leaving?" "Because you al-
low so many coffee breaks that
I can't sleep nights."
