Continuing with the series on
International Women's Year
1975, I havetalkedwith several
young ladies all students and
.,.all.residents at Vanastra.
-Kelly Deller 15 attends CHSS.
c s a sdhild Kelly said she often
heard "don't do that, girls can't
do that" but now she feels girls
aren't put down. For a career
Kelly would like to I be a
teacher. If she had children of
her own she would interrupt her
employment for awhile to stay
with them.
Sixteen year old Lori Deller's
first reaction to International
Women's Year was positive.
Lori, a student at CHSS said,
- "women have as many rights
as men but women will have to
work for them." When she
marries Lori would change her
name.

household chores.
Barb said . "International
Women's Year gives women a
chance to show what they can
accomplish,'"
Linda Verhoeve is also a
student in the medical
secretarial course at Conestoga
College. We had. a fair
discussion about careers and
sex stereotyping roles and
Linda responded that if she
could she would like to be a
truck driver,' it seems exciting.
To Linda 1975 means "A step
ahead for women. We should
realize our opportunities in all
fields. If women are willing to
give a little they could make
something for themselves."
Monna Boyd is enrolled in
upgrading and has applied to
colleges for admission into a
nursing program.
Monna is separated from her
husband and lives at Vanastra
with her young son. She is
concerned with her ability and
opportunity to earn a . good
living to support herself and
her son. She said she couldn't
stay home oh- Mother's
Allowance. At one time Monna
was employed at the minimum
wage in office work.
Monna-hopes 1975 will mean
"equal rights for women,
higher pay and better pay for
women."

I also hada discussion with
three students from Conestoga
College. All three have chosen
female stereotyped roles for
their future careers.
Barb Timmerman is enrolled
in the medical secretarial
course. At times she wonders
about her role as she is taught,
it seems "servant to master"
she prefers the type of em-
ployment she is being trained
for over a factory job. When
asked what her salary would be
after graduation, she didn't
know, but expected more than
the minimum wage since she
has been in school 13 years.

ALL PRICES CASH CARRY
The Clinton Police depart-
ment are investigating the theft
of $67 in cash from the Clinton
arena last Sunday night.
Apparently, the thief hid in
the arena until the building was
closed for the •day, stole the
money, and then broke out of
the building.
About $750 damage was done,
police say, in a collision last
Friday morning between a car
driven by Clifford Cooper of
Victoria Street, Clinton, and a
car driven by Cornelis Kuiper
of RR 1, Clinton. The accident
occurred about 10:30 a.m. in
front of 21$ Victoria"Street.
On February 15, about 2 a.m.,
a car driven by Willard Junior
Cotton of 343 Victoria Street
struck a concrete hydro pole
causing about $400 damage to
the car. The accident occurred
outside the entrance to 343
Victoria Street.
The Clinton Police Com-
mission is also looking for a
new constable to replace P.C.
Doug Rielly 'who resigned last
week to take a better position
with the Peel Regional Force.
The Commission is advertising
this weekend in both the weekly
and daily press.
