Students' .Council
deserves support
of student body
Last Friday, the elections for
class representatives to Students'
Council were held. These nom-
inations were left until this
time, so that everyone could
get well enough acquainted with
classmates to be able to make a
wise decision.
. Perhaps this would be a good
time to explain the set-up and
function of the Council to any
of the new people in the school.
Each year,usually in Decem-
ber, a campaign is h e l d in
which anyone from grade eleven
or twelve, not in his or her grad-
uating year, is eligible to run
for election. Eventually, six
people come our on top. .This
is OUR Students' Council chosen
strictly by U S !
Last year we electedaMonty
Templeman as president and
Barb White as vice-president,
along with John Collins, Mac.
Galbraith, Paul Guest and Mar-
ilyn Tiffin. These people are
aided by Mr. Forrest, the staff
advisor.
Council's function is NOT to
control school policy. It is
there to help us by acting as a
communication link between us
and the administration: Among
the numerous fears accomplish-
ed by this group was sponsorship
of many successful dances. Last
year it made possible the first
Christmas Party in which the
whole school participated as a
whole 'and has arranged lit meet-
ings. It has held fund raising
campaigns, in which all the
money collected was used in a
way in .which the student body
wished --last year it was used to
-furnish the Student Lounge. And
the Students' Council has man-
aged the annual Cancer Drive
in which the students canvassed.
• With all this responsibility.
it is not *difficult to see that the
Students' Council needs our aid
and support. This is where the
class reps, mentioned above,
come i41 Since it is irhpossible
to have 'all the.' students congre-
gate to voice their opinions;
:one member, from each class is
elected to attend the meetings,
to tell the Council exactly what
• his or her classmates h a s in
Mind, and to rrport to.. these
classmates, any decisions made
at the meeting. Anyone, wheth-
er rep or not, is free to ,attend.
So come on kids, let's.do
our part and give Council our
support. It's the least we can
do for them after they've done
so much for us!

The Students' Council has
come up with what may not
necessarily be THE answer to
lack of school spirit, but it's a
step in the right direction. •It's
up to us, the student body, to .
take it from there.
Spirit Days, the first such
event in our school, ha .been
planned for Wednesday, Thurs-
day and Friday of this week.
Since the story had to be writ-
ten Monday in order to be ready
for Wednesday publication, we
will not be able to tell you ex-
actly what did go on, but we
can give you a general idea as
to what will take place.
On Wednesday a pep rally
will be held in the morning,
to give our football team the
extra boost they need in the af-
ternoon when they go out of
town to play their big game.
This will also be Purple and
White Day - -during which a
little more spirit may be
aroused when all the students
dress in our school colours.
Thursday will be FrenchDay,
devoted to the purpose of stim-
ulating student interest in Ca-
nada's co -language. There
will be .a short French assembly
in the morning. Being Hat and
Tie Day as well the students
will be fittingly attired for the
"sock hop" to be held in the
auditorium between 2:35 and
4:00 p. m.
Draws will be made and
prizes presented to the top sales -

Redmen defeat
Madill Phantoms
in soccer game
BY NEIL HEMINGWAY
The Madill Phantoms en-
countered the Clinton Redmen
in a soccer game at Winb.., m.
Looking for our first win, we
were determined to defeat the
Redmen thus avenging a .previ-
ous loss to them last fall in an
exhibition game.
Dur the first half, Ma -
dill's forward line exerted great-
er
reater pressure than the Redmen's
line. Unfortunately, Clinton
scored on a shot which rico -
cheted off one of the goal posts.
Gary Whytock of Wingham tied
the game with a shot from the
18 -yard line. The score re -
mainedtied until half -time due
to the superior goal tending of
both Madill and Clinton.
Early in the second half,
another goal scored by G -a r y
Whytock was ruled illegal due
to a Madill offside. Clinton
Redmen returned to score anoth-
er goal. Time ran out a nd
Wingham was unable to score
the tying goal. The finalscore
was Clinton Redmen 2; Madill
Phantoms 1.
Everyone on the team agrees
that the teamwork has improved
greatly. Greater things should
be seen in future years.
