The Glance will be moved from the South Huron Recreation (.entre, where it has been held the past few years, 'to the high school's small gymnasium. Last week eight formal themes were presented by groups of students and were vote(' on by those interested. The 1983 formal will be Fri- day May 20. The theme, presented by Suzanne Mathers and Dolly Creces and selected by the student body, is An Evening in. Venice. This year's council felt opening the theme decision up to the school was more democratic. Any group or in- dividual could propose a theme but had to present it along with detailed plans for the set-up and an estimation of the materials required. All themes were well thought out as the proposers had sketches and floor plans of their themes. )'resident Jamie Chaffy fell this gave the voters a lot more to base their decision on than a simple theme it le. Seven other themes were presented other than the win- ning Venetian entry. One was modelled after the School of the Performing Arts of televi- sion, Fame. Andrea Zim- mer's theme, A Day at the Beach. featured colourful sunsets. Ma ja Gans and Cyn - di down cnllaherated on two thanes. Their dreamy Cloud 9 con trasted sharply with their Egyptian scenes and mum- mies of King Tutakhamen's tomb. Movies, and movie stars were the basis of ,Melanie Lovell's Fabulous Forties thetne. All the dif- ferent polis of New York. like Greenwich Village. Central Park and the Empire Stale Building would make up Jackie Baptist's formal theme of New York, New York. Itodney'Dangerfield didn't get any respect as a child. Says Rodney, "My family never bought a pumpkin - - they made me stand in the window." Mathers and Creces ap- pealed to the romantic side of South Iiuron students with their Evening in Venice. They had the set-up well-planned out. Their presentation featured a slide presentation of Venice sights. The idea was influenced by Mathers trip to Italy,. sponsored by the Ex- eter Lions Club two years ago. Their plan is to have a canal with bridges on to the dance floor. Wall. murals of Venetian buildings and gon- dolas will. add to the atmosphere. For their efforts the girls receive $100 and tickets to the formal. Vice-president Sarah McClure says the winners will' have "a major role in the organization" of the formal decorations. Decorating will probably start in April. Of the decision to bring the formal hack to the school from the recreation centre, Chaffe said "We can do a bet- ter job decorating. There is less hassle as you don't have to do everything the day before." Ile noted that "there was a lot of flack last year" about having the formal at the rec centre. The Student of the Year awards will continue this year after the abolition of the Queen format four years ago.

Bylaw enforce- ment officer Herman Van Wieren defended the ticket, explaining that moveable lengths of concrete do not con- situte a standing curb. Bowman said the fine would be paid, but as newcomers to this communi- ty he and his wife had taken this occasion to tell council he believed parking and no park- ing areas should be more clearly marked. "There should be signs there. Why should someone else get nailed for the same infraction as 1 did?" he asked. Later. in his verbal report on streets and drains, coun- cillor Cecil Pepper said many of the street and stop signs were in need of repair or replacement, and the parking signs -defining the fire lane at the arena should be moved to comply with the village bylaw., Other parking signs are not tilted to the proper 30 degree angle. He suggested the installation of three school crossing signs - at main crossover points. Solicitor Dan Murphy will be asked to send a letter to Hensall Motors requesting the removal of vehicles from Lot 201 until proper rezoning pro- cedures are followed. Present use of the lot is in violation of Hensall's secondary plan. Since last month's regular session, council has held three joint meetings with the BIA,. the PUC and B.M.
