Advice to the Grublorn
by Paul Newland
Well, just three short
years ago I was in the
same position as you little
grubbies are now. Pretty
soon, initiation day will.
be. here, and oh boy, are
you gonna' get it.
Meanwhile, the grade
12's are sharpening their
teeth and generally
getting ready for the big
day when they _can use
their newly founded
power. Don't disappoint
them. But, as a note to
initators in general, I
seem to recall a com-
plaint from Cathy
Wooden in one of her
articles about a lack of
imagination during
initiation day, so try hard
to stretch your
imagination for a bit of
the more unusual.
For instance, why have
'the grubs sing the school
song when you can have
them sight-reading music
from, a lesser-known
Italian opera? Why have
them quote Shakespeare
when you can have them
quote the Oxford dic-
tionary? Why have them
carry your books when
you can have them
peeling grapes for you?
The possibilities are
endless. ,
As the list of names
given to me by friend-
s...'er...friends in junior
grades grows, I am
thinking about more
original initiations to put
those sad souls through.
If these have been done
before, will someone
please contact me?
They include: order
someone to go into the
lounge and shout "I
demand equal rights ! "
and see if he walks back
out; make someone sing
"I did it my way!" in the
front foyer' make
someone walk into 660
class, shout W oopee ! and
wait and see if he walks
back out.
Oh yes, and don't argue
over grubs. Share them.
Don't be selfish. There
are enough to go around.
And let's keep it that way.
We don't want it can-
celled for next year.
Big Brother is watching
The students, not to
mention the teachers, are
getting nuttier as we
progress further into the
school year. Mr. J. had a
"deadbeat" in his
Biology class, although it
wasn't what you might
expect. Mr. J. in his in-
finite wisdom was
demonstrating the dif-
ference between a live
beet and a dead bet by
boiling one. I guess all
that 'red stuff in the
beaker was blood then.
Eh, Mr. J?
B.B. (not big brother)
while wearing her clogs
and a brown dress,
tripped and fell down a
flight of stairs. Landing
at the bottom she picked
herself up and exclaimed
simply, "that hurt".
Can't you think of
something more

dramatic to say when you
have an accident?
Mr. W., who was
teaching his class outside
of Mr. M's room, was
apparently talking too
loud. Mr. M. annoyed
with the situation said,
"It's all very interesting,
but..." and then slammed
the window shut. They
think we students can't
get along...
G. H. while teetering
precariously during
home room, in the midst
of the national anthem
was pushed from behind.
A domino effect resulted.
S.J. also during "0
Canada" ripped a map
off the side blackboard,
which arrived at the floor
with a great clatter. The
class broke up. Could it
be that students are
getting tired of opening
exercises?
By the way some
lingerie was found by the -
driver on bus 171 last
week. The driver
promptly hung it on his
rear view mirror. Well,
some hang dolls, some
babyshoes...
K.W. was , last , seen
walking down the hall
with a stack of books on
her head. Are you
practising to be a
member of some South
African tribe K or are you
just trying to improve
your posture?
Now a word about high
fashion at the Com-
mencement exercises.
P.N. looked absolutely
stunning in his suit and
'blue sneakers as he
squeaked across the
stage to receive his
award from Mr. S. The
whole gathering at
Commencement oohed
and aahed at D.D. who
set the new fashion trend
in his blue velvet suit.
Next week, being
students week, Big
Brother will be watching
you very closely so
beware!!
Come and enjoy a delightful meal in our
pleasant old country dining lounge.

Inflation beaters
by David Leibold
The good old .days when
one could buy a pop for a
nickel are long gone - or
are they? For two days
September 18 and 18 they
sure weren't. A mistake
of 20th century
technology turned into a
great deal for many.
It started when the new
pop machine entered
CHSS. It offered six
flavors for 25 cents each.
Soon, someone found.
that all it takes to get a
pop is a single nickel. At
the end of Monday, a
large crowd could be seen
milling around the pop
machine waiting to stake

their claim to a bargain.
Word' got around and
students were getting
cans of pop by the dozen.
One student was even
heard to be carrying pop
by the gym bagful. It was
an anti-inflation riot that
Pierre Trudeau would be
proud of.
All good things must
come to an end, and by
that Tuesday afternoon,
they did. The machine
was fixed to accept 25
cents once more. The
greatest bargain in CHSS
history will be fondly
remembered as, "The
nickel pop giveaway".

Some opinions Mr.
Moore shared with us are
that all students in
Grades 12 and 13 should
write final exams.
"That's very un-
popular," he said, "but in
the long run, students
who go on to university or
college would find that if
they were made to write
final examinations in
high school, they 'would
be much better off."
A
When Mr. Fox moved
to vice-principal his
position as head of the
History Dept. was filled
by Mr. 3. Moore from
Seaforth.
Mr. Moore originally
born in Scotland, has
lived all over Europe, but
ended up in London to
attend the University of
Western Ontario where
he spent four years
working for his Honors
History degree. While in
London he played football
for the Western,
Mustangs. After
graduating fro.li
Western, Mr. Moore went
on to Carleton where he
got his Masters Degree in
History and taught for a
year. If that isn't enough,
he went back to Western
for a Diploma in
Education and is
presently working on
getting a Ph.D.
If you've been in one of
Mr. Moore's classes you
will notice how tough that
sturdy little man at the
front of the class looks
and talks. The first day of
school Mr. Moore told us
that we may find a little
humanity in him
somewhere, but not, he
assured us, until January
of February. Seeing Mr.
Moore hobble around
with cast and cane (result
of an old injury) might

of us, his cane serves

When asited his opinion
of the use of English by
students he replied,
"Thanks to television the
English language is being
destroyed by the student
body," but he added,
"you can't blame the
students for that. We
speak the ' way we're
taught to speak."
Mr. Moore is very

Volleyball results
On Wednesday of last
week the junior and
senior boys volleyball
teams were involved in
their first tournament of
the season which was
played in Mitchell.
The junior boys split
their matches with South
Huron and with Seaforth.
The senior boys
defeated South Huron in
two well -played games of
15-9 and 15-11. Against
Seaforth however, they
encountered some dif-
ficulty and lost one game
15-5 but they handily won
the other 15-11.
The seniors journeyed
to Mitchell on Saturday
for an exhibition tour-
nament and not much can
be said that wouldn't
sound bad. Playing with
only seven men, they won
only two of their twelve
games.

While interviewing Mr.

outside of the classroom
he's just an average
person.
I have two kids, a boy
and a girl. One's two and

Trying to be helpful
(we were running short of
