Sports, academics mediocre, challenged by science fair I never set any sports records nor made the honor roll with my academic marks, but while in school, a science fair was a challenge I could thrive on. The most important aspect of the science fair was that it gave students an opportunity to work on a project they set for themselves. The teachers involved were looked on as the effects of acid rain on the environment and pondered the stars in the sky. The top winners from the Exeter regional fair will compete at Huron Cen- tennial school (today - April 14) and winners from there may even get a chance to compete at the Canada -Wide Science Fair, said to be in Vancouver this year. ' Misce,neous Rumblings ByR06 CHESTER sources for further in- formation and for their support. The teacher was not in a position to dictate what work was to be done, when it was to be done, or to judge the final results. While there was a definite element of competition, the challenge was in the project. If the project wasn't covered and investigated fully by the student, no amount of window dressing in display or fancy talking a contestant could muster, would sway the judges. The science fairs at the Zurich Public School and at the South Huron Rec Centre this past week demonstrated this. One exhibit at a fair I competed in had no display at all and yet won its class. Other exhibits demonstrated showmanship, not science. Of interest' at the recent fairs was the variety of subjects depicted. A variety of interests can be sated by competing in a fair. There were: in- formational exhibits on nuclear energy and the types of owls in the area; there were exhibits by model builders, one a model of the C N Tower, while another competitor won his class with a model of a coal mine; there were scientific displays on growing plants and animal behaviour; items thought of as toys were given scientific studies - a steam engine and a model sub- marine; and displays noted • I SOI J L,/on I was on top of the world when I won a trip to the Canada Wide Fair in Calgary in 1943. I was in grade 12 and it was the first time I and most of those competing, had had a chance to take part. The prize included a flight to Calgary (my exhibit rode the train) and a week's accommodation, as well as tours, sight-seeing (a side - trip to Banff) and all the roast -beef banquets you could handle. At the fair, you could notice a difference. between those who had competed before (some had been at the Canada -Wide before) and Golden those who had come for the first time. At this level, the display and your ability with the judges came into play. Many exhibitors on were on an equal scientific basis and every edge helped. Also of interest were the ideas generated. That year, fibre optics communications. was the most popular engineering topic, but the mthibit which caught the imagination was a robot. Once we had examined the display and found all Its obvipus errors, a second - generation rabbt' started `to' evolve between a number of competitors. Some pretty sharp thought from a variety of subjects came to play on designing a robot. I wonder if anyone did show the next year with that robot? My own project the next year involved robot systems but was a failure in human, not scientific terms. My own project (I feel) was rather roughly handled by the judges. Like a big frog from a small pond, I found the ocean a little over- whelming. Like most ex- periences the Canada -Wide science fair taught me more about myself than about science. The point of the fair to me, was a form of self- expression. I felt good with what I had done. Winning was an extra benefit, but it spoiled it a little too. Glimpses I think everyone welcomes a white Christmas, but I don't think many of us were so happy with a white Easter. The Ladies Auxiliary held their regular monthly meeting on Tuesday evening commencing with a program for the residents. Music for the program was provided by Ted Ducharme and his son, iJerry. Following the program, refreshments were served including Easter treats. Bingo was played on Thursday afternoon in the hobby shop. Fr. Mooney celebrated Easter Mass in the chapel on Thursday afternoon. The Zurich Mennonite Choir presented an Easter Cantata under the direction of Miss Dorothy Steckle on Thursday We thank Mrs. Dorothy Simpson of Exeter for making Easter favors for the residents and having them delivered to each one. This was a time consuming effort and we sincerely appreciate this gesture. On Sunday morning, the adults of the Zurich Men- nonite Church gathered to sing Easter music for the residents. The Sunday evening chapel service was con- ducted by Rev. Clayton Kuepfer of the Zurich Mennonite Church. Mrs. Grace Martin presided at the organ during the service.
