You'll be tempted to sit in the sun all day, but you've got to remember your obligations. If by chance you forget them invest in suntan lotion. Taurus For most of the summer you will be con- •cerned basically with financialmatters,., such as a summer job. Be sure to use any time off for a sound, constructive purpose - out on the town! Gemini - Poor Gemini, your summer will be a bit lonely for you. Although your heart may be elsewhere, your body will be at home. Cheer up! Next September promises a new, exciting change! Cancer - This summer will be a time for you to make new friends or renew old acquaintances. Social life will be number 11 on a scale of one to ten. Live it up. Leo - Now is the time for you to go absolutely mad for a while. Kick off yourshoes and let down your hair (or something to that effect). Virgo - Look out! A ten- dency to be a bit ` absent- minded will plague you.' Facts and figures will blur Student manpower sets "Hire a Student week" The Canada Manpower Centre"for students would like to announce "Hire -a -Student Week" will be held June 12 to 18 in Huron County. • Hire -a -Student Week is organized each year to bring to the attention of the local business community and the Wtomeowners of Huron County that hiring a student can provide a learning experience and basic job skills for a local student. The Mayors of Goderich, Clinton, Seaforth and Exeter have been contacted and all have agreed to support Hire - A -Student Week. Each mayor will issue a Hire -A -Student proclamation td be published in the local newspaper. Letters have been mailed to the Reeves of the townships home style -cooking! asking for their official support of Hire -A -Student - Week. Finally, intensive ad-, vertising has been arranged by the Student Centre through the local media. It is felt that their efforts will result in a greater community awareness of the advantages of student hiring. and become distant. Or is it Libra - A summer romance is in the offing for you. Don't let him -her break your heart, sweetie! Keep a stiff upper lip. Scorpio - Try something a bit different this summer. Don't stay at home! Try visiting far -away horizons - Stratford, Londesboro, maybe? Sagittarius - Good luck will shower down upon you, until you think that you can do no wrong. Beware of black cats, etc. Capricorn Don't let the "blues" get you. Smile and let everyone else worry. Don't get an ulcer even for the best • of reasons. Take "Tums". Aquarius - This summer, stay away from dads which may come along Resist the five inch platforms and the "bag -look" or whatever. Be your own person - albeit strange -looking. Pisces For you marvelous people, a fantastic summer (marred aonly by a f'ew rainstorms, freak disaster, etc.) Keep smiling. Bye, bye ' for '77! Love, Sally. The year -in review The school year is over now; there is cause for ex- citement. The Chronicle has kept student and citizen alike informed about the school. This is our last issue for this school year and it is ap- propriate at this time to print a year end review. The review will take a month -by - month look at the events of CHSS this past year. September: The first Chronicle this season was produced September 23. CHSS Student Council had adopted a tribal system which divided the school into four tribes. It was im- plemented in hopes that it would bring up school spirit. Student Week started the 27th of September with Pajama Day. Then on Tuesday came Initiation Day. Following were Hillbilly Day, School Colours Day and Disco Day. The first month of school was complete. October: Clubs and in- stitutions got off to a good start. The Music Council was declared as an official council this month. This Week At CHSS column started. It had notices about assemblies, club activities, bake sales and false fire alarms. A .new character in CHSS was created in the guise of Super Student. Golden Arrow Day was held on the 30th. The day had a Gong Show, a football game betveen Redmen and teachers ph s a supper. November: Prefects were working hard on November 4 in their Prefect Work Day. Some people began to wonder whether winter was really here or not. A poll was held on activity periods debating if we should have them, how many, etc. '1•here was dirty work being done - Dirty Work at the Crossroads that is. It played on November 15 and 27. The drama put up an excellent performance of the 1890's style melodrama. December: ' CHSS Reach For the Top had won their match against Arthur. The tribal system was rebuilt and elections were held Dec. 1. It was soon to be exam time again. Hours of studying were needed to prepare for the event. Then the par- ticipaction period was an- nounced. It was to be sand- wiched between two periods on Day 1. After exams, the cherished Christmas Holiday would commence. January: Winter storms took their toll of school days for students and the Chronicle was laid up for a few weeks. But January was not without event: The- participaction period had finally arrived. The exams of some history students asked whether a medieval Da'ish emperor was the Carlsberg brewmaster or not. Finally, Student of the Week returned with a vengeance. February: We now move farther and farther away from the -:winter months but blizzards and storms still take their tolls. Alex Harrett found himself defending a `statement about prefects in the Dear Annie column. Then a model UN meeting was organized in Norwich. After the headline spelling it Norwell and Norwick, readers were surprised to hear of the news. There was a PLO terrorist group threatening the meeting. Ten schools organized into nearly 70 countries of the world. An honourable delegate won a costume award for his Yugoslavian dress (or lack thereof). So much for the 'short month of February. March: An editorial was printed by Deb Elliot on how lucky we are to attend CHSS. The tramp champs came to visit us t� show their finesse at the trampoline. And nothing is invisible until . proven so. (Take that one Casper) . There was a brief interlude of freedom for students during March Break, where no exams were held because of the weather. Also, students were trying their darndest to drink milk and become eligible to get spotted for the milk moustache contest. April: Glad tidings arose with the announcement that CKNX-FM was about to hit the air for broadcasting. A program called Four o -clock rock was introduced and school reports were accepted from Scott Doherty and Janet Eastman. Plans for the CHSS Variety were being laid as CHSS Music began to prac- tice. May: The Redmen begin to, show promise as a team for CHSS. We found that a CHSS girl was one of the best in this province. The CHSS Formal was. held in -the auditorium where couples could go in and have the time of their lives. ,The Family Pack begins to creep into the minds of CHSS students. The CHSS Debating Club held their final Debate of the year and were about to take part in the Model Parliament in Exeter. Deb Elliot was the new school queen for CHSS when she was voted the honour at the for- mal. June: Freedom is near for students. The Debating Club finished at Model Parliament and the fear of exams is prevalent. This issue becomes the finals issue of the Chronicle' until fall. Dear Annie has answered many a question about people hating her, about albatrosses taking power dives off short cliffs and of a boy having the hots for this girl and vice versa. We hope that next year's Chronicles will become more interesting and have even finer articles. The editor next year will be Philip Street.

The members that have been involved with the thronicle this year are: Lorrie York, Philip Street, Cathy Madill, David Leibold, Ken McBride, Lorry Dellar, and Nancy Clynick. A special thank you to Mr. Ron Smith, our staff advisor. All members wish everyone a joyous summer holiday. Letter Dear Readers; First of all, thank you for all of the support you have given the Chronicle staff in 1976-77. You have given us new ideas, encouragement and most importantly, an attentive audience. This year, we have tried a few new features and have continued some older' ones. Most importantly, we seem to get a good reaction or feed- back. That is, people come up to us and say "About what you said last week..." We hope that we have provided both entertainment and in- formation. To the new Chronicle editor, Philip Street, I wish the greatest of luck. I hope that the experience of working with fellow students will be as satisfying and FUN for you, as it has been for me this year. Lorrie York. ‘i1 Sunday Special JUNE 5 GRILLED • HAM STEAKS with pineapple rings. Scalloped or mashed potatoes, buttered green peas.The above includes juice,. salad, j tea or coffee.

They are saying, so I understand, that the Editor is gonna give me the boot. Needless to say, nothing could be farther from the truth. As far as contract negotiations are concerned, I've go the staff on their collective knees. They are desperately trying to make me sign an iron -clad series of one-week contracts, in which I have taken a considerable pay -and -fringe benefits decrease, just to give them a break. They jokingly call it the "Until. We Can Find Somebody Better" agreement. Great sense of humour those people got. I'm still weighing it against my offers from The Star, the Sun and the Free Press -- the exact nature of those offers will be kept a secret for business and personal (those guys have some nerve!) reasons. Meanwhile, if any of you know someone who deeds an advice columnist, who, if need be, could double as a maid, nanny;i chimney -sweep or even sanitary engineer -- let me know, and I'll pass on the news to my poor sister-in- law, who is out of work. Annie Slanders Editor's Note: The Chronicle requires a moderately mediocre advice columnist. Cheap.
