Students' Council News
Last week, the class reps
attended a Students' Council
meeting during .which several
ideas were discussed.
It has been suggested that
we have a "theatre might " at
the school on a regular basis.
Since many young people are
looking for something to do on
the week -ends this seems to be
an inexpensive answer to their
problem. If the Students' .
Councilwere to use our funds to
back it, they could obtain such
popular films as,• "To Sir With
Love" and "Romeo and Juliette"
and the actual prices could be
kept as low as perhaps 250 per.
person. If anyone has any sug-
gestions regarding this plan
they are to get in touch with
Mr. , Schleich.
The problem of behaviour in
the student lounge was also dis-.
cussed at the meeting. It seems,
despite earlier warnings, some
students are still neglecting to
return their pop bottles to the
Jacks and are generally failing
o accept"their responsibilities
maturely. Unless this behay. -
iour improves, the Students'
Council will find it necessary
to close the lounge at noon '
hours. -
New dance regulations were
also introduced. A circular will
be sent around to the classes
some time this week to explain
the new rules in detail to the
entire student body.

little too much. with them los -

15-6.
In the afternoon, the girls
had more determination and

next two 15-0 and 15-12. •-
Then they play& d:Seaforth

Take a trip
Mr. Stuckey Jr. presented
the student body with an excit-
ing idea at Monday morning's
assembly. He informed us of
an organization called "Ship
School ". He explained that
the purpose is'to arrange inex-
pensive trips to foreign coun-
tries for students during the
summer holidays.
One of the offers for next
summer is a trip to' Japan. Stu-
dents can choose Trip A for, 22
days which would cost them .
$795, including all expenses
except for the day at Osaka
which would cost extra; Trip B
for 15 days would cost $695 un-
der the above conditions. Mr.
Stuckey pointed out that simi-
lar trips made on your own
would cost as much as $1100 to
$1200 and that is excluding
lodging!
A meeting will be held this
week for all persons interested
in the above trip, or any others
offered" by the organization.

October 25th was a day of
decision for the F. E. Madill
S.S. Cross -Country team,
The team went to Wil-
fred -Laurier Secondary School
in London to take part in the
W. O. S. S. A. competition,
along with other qualifying
Western Ontario high schools.
The meet proved to be very
poorly organized --a factor
which may have contributed
partially to our losses. How-
ever,our school placed first in
two divisions and second in
another --standings for which
we can certainly be proud.
The Midget Boys' team ran
first. There was a large num-
ber of starters in this race, but
John deBruyn performed in true
Madill style, placing 12th.
Chris Excel came in 21st, Rob
Heifer 32nd and Joe Winger
40th. This team placed fourth
in its division, with the score
of 105.
The Junior Boys put on a
great performance and wontheir
race easily. Paul Moffat cap-
tured another medal as the first
runner in this race. The rest of
the team closely followed; Ken
Mathers, 3rd; Joe deBruyn, 8th;
-Phil Beard, lith, and Paul Hef-
fer, 23rd. The team score was
23. Madill' beat the second
team by a rather wide margin.
F. E. Madill Senior Boys
came within one point of anoth-
er first. „ Final results were:
Sarnia, 55 points, and F. E.
Madill, 56. Anyway, the boys
ran a great race. Glen Morn-
ingstar shows great promise-..-.
hewas sixth over the finish line.
John Rae finished 94Ken Roul-
ston, 20th; Jim MacAdam, 21st
and Ralph Scott,' 56th.
The girls team also compet-
ed at W.O. S. S. A. in an exhi-
bition run. We came first, of
course. Another individual win-
ner here- -Joyce Taylor led the
way to the finish line. T h e
rest of our team followed close-
ly. Beverly Finch ,placed third;
Nancy Craig, .fourth; Henny
Beyersbergen, ' fifth; and Margo
deBruyn twelfth. Since this was:
an open race, Cheryl Mceutch_
eon, Dianne Machan and Pat
Machan also competed. The
girls finished with the best score
of the day --thirteen..
Overall, Madill -results were
quite admirable. The Junior
and Senior Boys' teams were
qualified to compete at
O. F. S. S.' A. , as well as. John
deBruyn of the Midgets. We re-
turned with hopes of placing at
O.F.S.S.A,
A JUBILANT CROWD of Wingham students
and cheer leaders react to Wingham's
26-8 decision over ,the Listowel team in
last Thursday's semi-final game played in
Wingham. Wingham will now proceed to
the final game in the Huron -Perth' tourna-
ment to be played against Goderich Thurs-
day. The game will be played on Goderich
Meet our coach of
cross-country teams
BY HENNY.BEYERSBERGEN
Although Mr. Young is one
of many new teachers at F. E.
Madill this year, he is already
'well known throughout the
school, mainly as coach of the
Cross -Country team.
Mr. Young was born 1946, in
Kingston; ,but shortly afterwards
the family moved from that.
area.,, He 'began his education .
in a kindergarten which was
situated in a church, since there
was no school. Grade one was
nt in another church, since
t e school was too crowded. For
the remainder of hiselemen-
tary•schooling, he attended
Irtveter Public S c h o o 1; Mr.
Young was enrolled in Kitch-
ener-Waterloo
itch-ener.-Waterloo High School.
He went to Western Ontario
for his university education,and
studied towards a degree in
Zoology. but had to give this
up when he was transferred to
Physical Education., He achiev-
ed.Honours,in Phys. Ed, and is
-presently working towards his
Masters.
Mr. Young enjoys teaching
at F. E. Madill. His primary
intention was to teach univer-
sity,
niver-sity, but on the advice of a
friend decided to teach high
school. At. F. E. Madill, Mr.
Young teaches Grade N i n e
Science and Grade Eleven Phys-
ics. Plans for the future are un-
certain. He may continue his
teaching career, or go with his
university studies.
Mr. Young's main interests
are sports --of all kinds, but
especially rugger. He coached
the Cross- Country team this
year and promises a s.t r o n g
come -back next year. He is al-
so coaching the Junior Boys'
Basketball team; and, for the
time being, his ambition is to
win more than two basketball
games. Watch this team close-
ly—they may even make the
top of the league.
