As a student - teacher, Mrs. Schleich acquir- ed much experience in schools of Stratford, Windsor, Exeter, London and St. Thomas. But why has she chosen our school above all others? For this there are three basis .. reasons. Firstly, Mrs. Schleich is impressed by the excellent facilities, especially the library. —It's the blest I've been in, " she commented. Wingham offered an opening for two English teachers, an oppprtunity for she and her husband to utilize their educational talents. Lastly, Mrs. Schleich finds students of a rural area highly commend- able. Students hear blind speaker, musician meet Mrs. ScI,Ieich! This was u8jue !

E. Madill Secon- dary School at an assembly held in the auditorium on Tuesday, October 7th. Peter Corless, Assistant Field Secretary from CNIB London explained that he hoped'to `in- form 'us of the history of the In- stitute. That he did very Well!, by taking us back fifty years to the beginning of the CNIB At the end of the First Wo3clii'Waiz'-'5= there was no agency to help the newly blinded who returned from service. Thus this group.'' obtained their Charter in, 1920 and began their work of finding out who, and how many, .blind people there were in Canada. of action with Greg Wilson starting it off with a 15 yard run for the first touchdown and again Jim Wheeler made the convert good for another point. Neil, Bieman intercepted a Mitchell pass and on the third down Greg Wilson kicked into, the end zone for a point. On a dive Don Pletch got the ball and ran for a 30 yard touchdown. Len Johnston intercepted a Mitchell pass and on the third down Bob Armstrong threw a pass to Bill Strong who ran for a touchdown with Jim Wheeler kicking anoth- er convert to gain another point. Altogether Wingham made 613 yards in rushing, to Mitch- ell's 183 yards with Greg Wilson rushing for 2 53 yards and 3 touchdowns and Peter Snow rush- ing for 120 yards and 2 touchh. - downs. The final score was 46 to 8. With the 1930's the depre - sion. arrived and dollars were scarce and jobs few., Therefore the financial support for which CNIB depended on the public was limited. Canada was the first country to provide free mailing services, for the purpose of sending out their special edi- tions of books which had been recorded. However, this prov- ed to.be a disadvantage since records like those of the Read- ers Digest filled up 12-14 LP re- cords. In the 1940's many Canadians lost their sight in World War II but the situation for handling them was much different than it had been before. By this time the CNIB was well estab - lished and they were prepared to offer retraining and rehabili- tation programs for the blind. In the 1950's the CNIB played a major role in starting the eye bank The first Canadian Cor- neal Transplant was performed in September 1955. Since then there have been 1400 successful transplants. In the 1960's the talking book library, mentioned earlier, grew a great deal. There has been a conversion from records t o tapes in the library because of o / / 1968 CHEV.

This she regards as an important advantage of teaching at Madill, But life does not end at 3:24 Monday to Friday, Mrs. Schleich finds reading, drama, and movies among appealing activities. John Milton, T. S. Elliott and Dylan Thomas rank as her favorite poets and D. H. Lawrence as a laudable author. With reference to future plans, both Mrs. Schleich and her husband plan to return to university either in British Co- lumbia or in England to achieve M. A. and thereby Ph. D. de- grees, majoring in philosophy or English. Every student at Wingham welcomes - M r s . Schleich and wishes her success, happiness and achievement, not only here, at our school, but wherever the demands of education lead her. the obvious advantages of the latter. This year the CNIB is cele- brating its 50th anniversary. As Mr. Corless revealed in his ad- dress, it has been fifty years of extremely commendable serv- ice. As living proof of what this institution can do for the blind we had as our guest Dan Fisher, a young blind man from Hamil- ton who added a great deal of enjoyment to the program with his guitar playing and singing of various selections. Among these were Gord Lightfoot's song "Richman's Spiritual"; t h e theme song from True G tit; Blank Day in July; Glenn Camp- bell's "`Gentle on my Mind" and "By the Time I Get to Phoenix." Dan Fisher is a graduate of the Ontario School for the Blind , Brantford, majoring in music, both ihstrumental acid vocal, and is a certified piano techni- cian. This young. man, who was born without sight, is a self- supporting individual who makes his living tuning pianos and en- tertaining throughout the dis - trict. DAN FISHER, blind from birth, entertained students at the Madill Secondary School on Tuesday. He accompanied the CNIB assistant field secretary, Peter Corless, who address- ed the student body.
