The Goderich Signal-Star, 1967-10-12, Page 9Drum Majorette. • Corps Formed Here The former director of the Owen Sound Twirlettes,pretty Miss Doreen Cook,has organ. ized a drum majorette corps in Goderich. The formation of the corps 'was assured last Friday night • When 13 junior age youngsters howed up ti.t the Town Hall to register for the classes. The first session for • the corps will be this Wednesday night in the' Goderich. Memorial Arena Auditorium at' 7 p. m,v and• will continue weekly thrrughout the fall, winter and early spring months. Miss Cook has many things to recommend her as an r,ln. strutter. She was with theTwir. lettes for six, years and led •• them for three of those years. Under her guidancethey won the Junior Championships in 1964,.the Senior Championships in 1965, the Brampton Festival of Flowers for three years in a row, the Maid of the Mist Festival and many other events. Besides being a good leader Miss Cook is also resourceful.

Doreen hopes t� take this newly formed group to the On. tario Junior Championships in Hamilton next August. They will compete with groups who have also never been in competi- tion before or in the novice class, It is still not too late to re- gister for the corps. If anyone who has not enrolled comes to the first class they mP. y' be. come .a member of Goderich's first Drum Majorette Corps. LIONS PEANUT DRIVE TO. NIGHT 14.,„ S UFE' THE FUNCTION QF A UNIVERSITY "The philosophy of education .,. which touches upon almost every, aspect of life ih the University, is that the creative ener• gies of students and faculty are best released and most bene. tidally developed not under conditions of repression or pater• nalism, but where self.r latipns, autonomy, and accounta. bility are engendered, 'kxcellence' and 'quality' are words we often use to describe our aspirations as a University center. 1 want a University that educates the whole human being; makes .him more sensitive, more responsible, more humane and with standards above those of the community at large. Such a person should be self-regulating and principled above conduct which merely 'tests' authority -figures; beyond the thrill, seeking of pornography, or marijuana experiments, or the mean. . ingless gestures of violence. What is the kind of environment which engenders such res. ponsible and mature citizens? Surely not one in which infantile dependencies and rebelliousness are continued by making uni, versities into parent -substitutes. Rather we require universi. ties which are crucibles for self -realisation; where the felt lesson is learned that freedom brings with it responsibility; that autonomy means accountability, not to a parent figure, but to oneself and one's peers. • Martin Megerson, Principal of State University of New York, Buffalo. METRIC SYSTEM PROGRESS' - In 1920 only 20 per cent of the world was on the metric sys. tem, but by 1966, 88 per cent accepted it. Britain has changed ,.over 12 per .cent. The U.S.A. and Canada have made no moves at all. Watch outCanada! AND NOW LUBRICATION! • You must remember the man who thought he was a poached egg and went looking for a piece of toast. Now we have the English boy who believed he was an automobile engine. Finding he was not running to his satisfaction he drank some upper cylinder lubricant. The last report was that he had been drained ready for his winter cl}ange.over and was 'now ticking over quite satisfactorily, thank you. ':YOUR" •COMPLEE HOME ..

Those who levy taxes at provincial and local level must justify theiryaction because the new money meets a "manifest need", at least, that is what we are always being told. The new political ploy is to say: "They keep asking for this and that". The trouble is we never meet 'they'. They are figments of the politician's brain. When taxes are levied and revenues spent close to the taxpayers, countless eyes are upon the spenders. • Federal taxes, on the other hand, have to be patiently en. dured, like the weather and the certainty of death. Those who im• pose them are faraway in Ottawa. It is impossible to fix respon- sibility. The money is spent by . a faceless bureaucracy. Tax- payers cannot reach the spender. They cannot effectively complain to them and they cannot vote them out of office. That is the traditional evil of a centralised government. *** Good managers identify problems and the people to solve them, If you learn that, you can manage anything. 4 * '* * YO—YO WITH STOCKS a ~ HO IMES VILU, ic HOST F, OF A.

This, stock is owned by 3 million shareholders and was always regarded as the favourite investment of widows and orphans. Assuming the ring would have cost $150,000, we can further assume that Christiana •Erdlen got 1120 shares at the 1960 price of around , $134 per share. Recently the Federal Com- munications Commission (.FCC) limited the profit of the Cor- poration to 7.1/2 per cent. The stock promptly lost #30 per share, so that Christiana lost $33,600 of the paper value of her investment. But when the FCC was petitioned by the Corporation it replied that the 7 - _7.1/2 per cent range only applied to 1966 and was not to be considered as an absolute ceiling for future profit. This reversal of their original verdict put the FCC in the position of having played yo;.yo with the stock and of having admitted gross error in its original ruling.. Do you see how irresponsible the bureaucrats can be? COST OF COMMUTING The University _ of Chicago has made a little study and con- cludes that the average commuter will pay 4 cents a minute for time saved in going to work and ,up to 12 cents to avoid a minute of walking. It may be completely irrelevant, but a trip in a motorised gondola at Expo 67 costs 15 cents a minute, with a minimum payment of $1:00. BETTING $200 MILLION TheStandard Oil - Co, of New Jersey has now followed_the lead of the Gulf Oil, Co. and has ordered a dozen tankers of 240,000 tons each for delivery in 1970. At $17 million' apiece they are betting that the Suez Canal, if ever it is reopened, will play at best a secondary role in handling tanker traffic, for such super -tankers cannot go through the Canal. The stability, peacefulness and good- faith of the Egyptian government (Nasser) is' no longer to be trusted. • . . G.
