Teacher Interview
"What made you decide to
become a teacher?" This
was a question I asked
several teachers this week.
The answers varied from
financial reasons to the idea
that fewer people would get
killed than if I became a doc-
tor! Here are some of the
answers I received:
u 0 0
"I enjoyed math and the
best thing,I could do with my
math was to teach, because I
liked being with people,"
Mrs. Garland.
0-0-0
"I had studied French in
school and taught part-time
at an elementary school. I
continued my education and
finally taught full time," Mr.
Compeau.
0-00
"I had never wanted to be-
come a teacher., Then one
year I found mysel? teaching
Latin for a few.weeks and I
really enjoyed it so I stuck
with it," Mrs. McDonald.
0-0-0
"I always liked working
with children when I was
younger. I enjoyed seeing
children progress so I
decided to teach," Mrs.
Machan.
0-0-0
"It was .a trap! It just
happened, it was not in-
tended. I was planning on be-
coming a doctor but I
wouldn't kill as many people
if I taught," Mr. Wilson.
''0-0--0
"I backed into it. There
Was more money in teaching
than what.I was doing," Mr.
Morrison.
0--0-0
These are just some of the
general comments made
concerning their choice of
career. The first reaction I
received when I asked this
question , was one of con-
fusion. They 'were not
exactly sure what had were,
them want to teach. Even.
though at times they have
questioned their choice
(marking exams, trying to
get a student to pass, etc.)
the efforts of all the teaching
staff of F. E. Madill are
greatly appreciated.

Grade eight night
It was a look ahead to the
future, : or perhaps, 'more
ae+curately, a look up to the
future — it' was Orientation
Night .'80. -
An estimated total of 400
parents and future grade
nines attended grade eight
;night last Monday night to
briefly glance at the school
of which they soon will be a
part..
The evening opened with
words of wisdom from Mr.
Ritter, Mr. Wood and the
guidance counsellors on
'school policies and pro-
cedures, followed by words
of warning from Larry
O'Malley and Kathy Under-
. wood, . next year's president
and vice,. who cautioned
grade eights to beware of
faulty guidance from some
"students!,
Mr. Taylor's Tramp Club
entertained the group with
an excellent display of tac-
tics, followed by tours of the
school led by the school's
prefects.
Parents and students also
got -some idea as to extra-
curricular activities . at
Madill by viewing various
displays by the athletic
council, tuck shop, chess,
effective speaking; year-
book, craft and other clubs.
A special thanks to all who
attended and helped to make
the night so successful. And
to the grade eights, see you
next year!

On' May 1, • 2, and 3, au-
diences at Madill Secondary
'School had the opportunity to
see what was, in my opinion,
one of the finest shows ever
presented by the drama
club, 1; had been fortunate
enough to attend all three of
the performances and was
delighted to find it to be as
entertaining the third night
as it was the first.
"Oklahoma" is the story of
two people in love : Curly, the
dashing cowboy, and Lau-
rey, his rancher sweetheart.
Their romance is compli-
cated , by : the villainous ad-
vances of Jud Fry, the lonely
and hard -bitter hired hand.
on Laurey and Aunt Eller's
farm.
Woven' into the main plot
are the amorous adventures
of Ado Annie and her two
suitors: Ali Hakim, the ped-
lar, and Will Parker, the
cowboy. The play contains
all the elements of a
thoroughly entertaining pro-
ductipn: music, drama,
dance, • comedy and
romance.
By far the stars of the show
were Lynne Hilverda and
Paul Craig as Ado Annie and
Ali Hakim. Superb perfor-
mances were also put forth
by Steve Pritchard as Curly,
Gail Thompson as Laurey,
Kemp Currie as Jud and
Mary Luanne Clare as Aunt
Eller.' Jim Laidlaw, Rob
Henderson and Vicki
McKague must be com-
mended for their more than
adequate portrayals of their
respective characters.
The lyrics and music by
Oscar Hammerstein and
Richard Rodgers were
beautifully sung by all cast
members. The set changes
were done quickly and with a
minimum of noise and the
props were effectively used.
A major. point that I'feel
should be mentioned was the
extraordinary display of
professionalism on the part
of the members of 'the cast
when a mistake occurred.
The ability to ad lib effec-
tively was shown, especially
on opening night.
A special mention should
go to the backstage crew, the
producer, director, pianists
• and anyone who was at all
involved with "Oklahoma".
For many of the per-
formers, this was their last
drama production at Madill. '
The: feelings of pride of a job
well done and the sadness of
knowing that many of the
friends made will not be seen
again are feelings that must
be common to all members
of the cast.
I wish good luck to those
leaving this year and I hope
that their talents will be re
cognized elsewhere. I am
size that the nextpi•oduction
will be just as successful due
,to the fine talent that'wrll"
still be here.
