Mr.. Kenwell
by Kathy Phillips
New tuthmmcbubltbio year
is Mr. Keovvel\, our
superintendent.
Ponald Kenwell was born in
1928 in Barrie, Ontario. He
received his early education
in a rural, one -room school
and graduated frorn Midland
High School. He attended
Normal School (teacher's
college) in Toronto and then
went to Queen's University.
From there he went to the
College of Education in
Toronto.
He became a teacher
because teaching appealed to
him #and he was interested in
meeting and working with
people.
Mr. Kenwell's 31 -year
career in the field of teaching
has undoubtedly put bin in
contact with people. He began
teaching in a rural school in
Simcoe county. From there
he went to Midland where he
taught the senior grades in
tilt elementary school. Be
was then principal in the
elementary school in
Penetang moct went back to
classroom instruction in the
Midland High School. He
taught in Parry Sound,
became a department head
and then vice principal. Mr.
Kenwell left Parry Sound to
be the principal of Listowel
Secondary School. Be spent
seven years as superin-
tendent in the northern part
of Huron County and this is
his first year as our
superintendent.
• As e i te dent Mr.
~ ,
Kenwell is responsiblefurthe
central portion of Huron
County. All schools in Clint'on,
Guderlob., 800forth, and
surrounding areas fall into
jurisdiction.his
r. }6enwoU is also
responsible for special
education across the county.
He collects and compiles
statistics rsuch as enrolment
and accommodation and
visits schools to_ supervise
instruction (yes he's the one
who sits in on some of your
classes).
Mr. Kenwell feels that the
students of today are in-
teresting, refreshing and
forthright. They are a
pleasure to be with but
because of some of his duties
as superintendent, he doesn't
spend as much time wjth
them as he would like to.
From his standpoint, we
have never really left the
system uyteadbing the 3 R's
(remding, vvritin8, arith-
metic). However, Mr.
Kenwell thinks the courses
taught in the schools today
are more interesting and
relevant to modern life.
Sports, he feels, should be a
part of school activities as
they are not dangerous
provided the participants
have been given proper
conditioning and instruction.
Kenwell was very
impressed with the en-
thusiasm generated at CHSS.
Be also 'noted that the
students have a great desire
to do something with their
lives. `

The Junior Redmen
recorded their third loss of
the season to Palmerston.
Clinton outplayed
Palmerston in the first
quarter, scoring a touchdown
by Dan McC|ure, a' convert
and a field goal.
In the second quarter,
Palmerston took advantage
of Redmen mistakes to score
two touchdowns.' `.
In the second half, the
Clinton team ran out of
steam. The final score was 34-
10. Next game is a home
game against Gndor|cb.
Girls Basketball
The s'enior girls basketball
played Listowel Tuesday,
October 4 losing 36-37.
The junior girls also lost
their game.
On Thursday, the senior
girls defeated Wingharn 35~27.
Although the juniors were
once again defeoted, their
game has improved con-
siderably.
Seniors lose
The Senior Redmen lost
their third football game to
Palmerston 15'1 last Thur-
sday. The Redmen- acored
ficuA_ with a safety .xuucb
scored -ran a punt by Mike
Denom me.
The seniors did not show
the quality of play they are
capable of. The first half was
uclose contest, but the second
half showed 'a, complete
breakdown in the Redmen's
play.
The seniors next game is
against the conference
leaders, 0odor|chVikings.
Volleyball team
The aonibr volleyball team
made a better showinglast
Wednesday at Clinton. They
took our first match from
Exeter, losing the first 15'8
but winning the final two
games 15-4 and 15-10.
The Redmen then dropped
two games to Goderich and
are now tied with Exeter for
fourth place.
A win next week would
secure fourth position for the
Red men.

Last Wednesday Initiation day all the poor grade niners at CHSS, and many came
dressed (?) for the occasion. This one picture shows a sad looking group in a grade nine

for the past four school youry,
and travelled similarly to
public school for more years
than 1 care to recall.

a conservative eotirnuto, to a
personal total elapsed time
equivalent to about four
months, Ihove accumulated
a veritable mountain of ob-
serv.ations on human
behaviour in a closed in'
Vironrnont. [ may write a
book on it if the censorship
laws slacken.
Until then, bnwevor.`lhoyo
decided to release this
sarnpling of my work on what
I call "Neo -Claustrophobic
Socio -Psychological
pbnunomouu” (think it'll
sell?).
The first hytiothesis is
called the "Meridian -Decibel
Ratio Contingency
Theorem, or MDRCT. It
seems that a definite
relationship exists between
morning conversation noise
levels and afternoon cases of
eardrum ruptures.
T -his comes as a result of
the fact that afternoon
decibel readings are the
product of the square of the
morning decibel readings
multiplied by the number of
first -period toata, divided by
the number of spares given
and classes skipped.
7heuredtaUy' would
mean that if everyone on a
fully -loaded bus had had a
crummy day, the internal
sound levels would be
equivalent to thaw inside a
tin can ten feet below a
Concorde jet in takeoff.
The "Posterior Positioning
Regress Syndrome" (PPRS)
'is somewhat less predictable,
however. I have concluded

Dear Annie:
I have this friend who has
this brotha,, who has this nice
car and this gossiper for a
girlfriend.
•My friend is supposedly a
friend of the girlfriend.
Now, whonevr7 my friend
even mentions something
about the girlfriend or any
subject at all, the brother
goes and tells the girlfriend
everything, then she goes and
mixes ituU'up.tells everyone
and everything and then my
Jriend ends up in trouble.
Now, if a girl cannot even
say a few things to her own
brother without landing in
manure up to her neck a week
later—Boy] -
Why, lhave seen friend
break down and cry in fronrof
her parents and her brother
.over a false rumor that "the
mouth" has spread. But, still
nO one takes heed.
What is the world coming
to?

Bystander
Dear Innocent:
I think your friend should
do one ofthree things: (a) tell
her brother not to tell his
girlfriend everything they
say in their conversations,
(b) tell his girlfriend to shut -
up' or (c) n�t to coj fide in her
brother.
I throw all my- support

of the bus is related to a
random physical
phenomenon called the
"Vertical Oscillation
Ao`pUficationEffebt:.
VOAE simply means that if
the front of the bus remains in
a constant horizontal plane
while the rear wheels go over
a one -inch bump, the back
seat (at\aaottpnYoetyard`ar
back) rises an inch and a haif.
It adds up after a few years.
I have been one of many
unyurtuna6e victims of this
effect, and have developed an
advonnodcoum'ofPJ,RG—riru
to mention OMAB (Oh My
Aching Back).
The development of the
above hypotheses has come
as a result of on -the -spot
interpretation of the afore -

this seriously; we're only

The cheerleaders started
off with "Let's Get Fired
Up!" and got very little
renodon from the student
body. Bovvovpr, when done a
second time the cheer started
a bug of enthusiasm.
A contest was held between
the halves of the gym using
the cheer "Victory""Victory"., (lncoye

roof was brought down when
"Spirit 1-2'2'4. Spirit is what

chanted at the top of the
students' lungs.
We could have supplied the
football team with enough
energy to last the rest of the
year. Bowover, a few of us
are still suffering from
bruised eardrums.
