He said drama in education is a tool to .promote interest and can be used to teach every subject from English, science to mathemat ics.

Another 18 were laid off two weeks ago. Theindustry, which manufactures recreational vehicles such as tent trailers, mobile homes and motor homes, has only been in operation at Clinton for the past two months. Plant manager Murray Hounsell cited the energy crisis as the reason for the plant closing. He said fears over a shortage of gasoline have scared buyers away -from the company's product and dealers would no longer purchase units. "There is no - ,sense in con- tinuing to build a product we 'can't sell," he said. At the same time as-- thc• layoffs were announced t plant manager stressed that.the plant was. not being permanen- tly closed. He indicated that when the energy scare passed, and demand -for the vehicles returned to normal, the -con- ° pang would open again. • He did admit however that the operation would be closed for an indefinite length of time. He explained that the'Glen- dale Company had staged a product show in Toronto last month but the sales push did not yield a single order. - He also noted that the Clin- ton operation was the first such recreation vehicle factory in Ontario to close. Mr. Hounsell also cited a shortage of materials . as a secondary reason for the plant closing.. County Development Officer Spence Cumniings ex- pressed concern for the future of the General Mobile Home company at 'nearby Hensall when he learned of the Glen- dale closing. The Clinton plant is one of five Glendale facilities located in three countries but Mr. Hounsell said to date the other operations have not- been affec- ted.
