Chicken Little," claimed -Mr:
Foster. "A .large part of the
public is. probably unwilling
to get worked up when no one
is being hurt. -
"Nuclear - electric: power
plants around the world have
now produced as much
electrical energy as was
produced from all sources of
,el"ectrical energy until"the
-mid-twenties without anyone
inr outside the plant being
Injured by radiation," Mr.
Foster boasted.
"And I think a smaller,
more perceptive part of the
public is • learning and being
reassured by the facts, he
went on to say. •
• quetermed "the main
stion" to be the inquiries
Aof groups like :CANTDU
which ask why Canadians
should be 'committed to • a
nuclear program without an
opportunity for; society as a
whole to explore the alter-
natives ' and to be satisfied
that the decision is right.
"The' problem is that this
interest ` is a new
phenomenon," •the AECL:
president admitted.
"A major development like
nuclear power has a long
history and involves •a -very
large ` proportion .of : the
society 'by • the time it is in
large-scale application," he
said. .
He talked about the' Porter
Commission' 'which is
"providing an opportunity for
public consideratiop".
"However, I think the
hopeful thing is that riaw that
an important section of the
public is awake --to' the imr
po.rtance. •of these new
developments, they will take
an interest in them while they
are still.. at a , very early
stage," Mr. Foster said.
"Even in•the.energ,field
I am thinking of these new'
energy' forms, solar and so
on," said Mr. Foster, "they
are taking an interest in them
at a very early stage and, as a
consequence,: I think their.

and last week Mrs.. 'Sheila

ladies how, with;h.a; little
practice, it is easy to create
the beautiful pieces seen at
various craft sales.
Sheila has been Opking
pottery for the last five.:years
starting Alien she lived in•
Burlington and' then getting
into full swing after moving to
Dungannon. Sheila has her
own firing kiln which is about
18" square inside..
She started with a small
one and later purchased a
.larger' one as shegot into
pottery as a.business as well
as a hobby. The kiln cost
around $400.00 and the wheel
she now has cost about the
same.
. Thewheel she now uses is
run/electrically which Sheila
finds works much better, less
tiring than the . manual one
she started with.
There are two types of clay
'used -earthenware and
stoneware. • Earthenware is
used mainly in ceramics,•one
example being Blue Mountain
Pottery. This clay always
'requires a glaze before' it will
hold water.
Stoneware is the most•
common clay used allld is
made into various forms such
as planters, .dishes', mugs,
casseroles, out etc.:the. ft vwil'1se '0711.f.°1 d

glaze and it can be used in art • •
oven. .
The pottery ,is surprisingly
durable and' often it can' be,
dropped •.without resulting. in'.
even a chip breaking off.
' Sheila brought -along her -

strated to the ladies the '

There are also three ways
you can 'make pots without

Pots, and. Slab. Pots. There
are several books available
'Slowing the different
techniques used.
Sheila also 'brought several
finished pieces with her in-
cluding bowls, casseroles,
hanging planters, and small
Ornamental pieces.
Many thanks go out to

such a fascinating morning
