It's science fair Months of preparation by local students will come to fruition when they compete in the 'upcoming Huron County Regional Science Fair to be held at the Clinton Public School, April 12 to 14. Student competitors will be hoping to collect the prizes offered by corporate and institutional sponsors at the fair. One of the most sought after prizes is the Suncor Energy Award. sponsored by Suncor. The winning student earns a three-day expenses paid trip to Syn- ergy '83: The Suncor Youth Symposium on Waste Dis- posal. It's a three day event where students will attempt to defuse the environmental time bomb caused by the poisonous by-products of our industrial society. Students are eligible who design, build and enter pro- jects in the senior category of the fair. The Suncor Energy Award is presented to the student whose project ex- plores some area of convent- ion or non -conventional en- ergy. Projects must combine both research and a high degree of practical applicat- ion. Projects that meet these demanding criteria earn first class honours and a Suncor • Energy Award from the judges. The fair is one of 60 organized across Canada by the Youth Science Foundat- ion.. - At Synergy '83 the Huron County Regional Science Fair winner will meet and work with other Suncor Energy Award winners from across Canada. Together they will participate to a simulation learning program where the students will role play the key players in the debate on waste disposal. Along the way the students will be assisted by world class en- vironmentalists and scient- ists from Canada and the U.S. The students will also tour The kids' column will take a break BY PATRICIA RIMIER What do you do when you know what you want to do, knour what you should do, know what you could do, but don't know what you're going to do? This is the Dilemma that 1 have been facing these past few weeks. You see, I began writing my column almost four years apo when i was still a young girl in public school. Since then i have tried my best to write an interesting column each week. Unfortunately, sometimes my best just wasn't good enough. At times this wasn't such an easy task hut, with encour- agement from friends, family and the Expositor staff, I've managed to put out a column almost every week. When i began writing no one, including myself, was sure how many months 1 would continue. Well. here I am, years later, still trying to come up with ideas. Things have changed since that first column. For one thing a different writer is now writ- ing it. Back then, the writer was a basically shy. skinny, grade eight girl who was keen to accept the challenge of her own weekly column. Now after four years, 360,000 calories, and many talking experiences. this writer is no longer shy, as skinny or in grade eight. 1 am much busier than that grade eight girl was. but still keen to write. EXPERIENCE The newspaper has giv- en me all sorts of experience and the editor. Susan White. couldn't be more under- standing than she has been when i brought in a late column or couldn't think of a topic. Since May 30. 1979, a birthday section has been added to Kids Teens In Betweens as well as high school news, The Junction. These were both done with the help of Susan and The Huron Expositor. As 1 said before, 1 am becoming more and more busy all the time with other commitments and writing an interesting column week after week is a lot more of a challenge than it was before. Sometimes it is so hectic that writing my column seems like more work than plea- sure. This is when 1 realize that I need a break, time to settle down and come up with some new material to write about. It is not like me not to enjoy writing and on some had days. 1 guess you could say I have a writer's block. I took my problem to the editor. afraid that the only solution would be to give up my column altogether. She time waste disposal technology research facilities in the Toronto area. 1:' ve suggested gi my column a break for sur weeks and then come back with a fresh start and hopefully new ideas. This way i can take a break and come back to decide whether 1 can conti- nue writing Kids Teens and In Betweens or not. If we had to go toschool seven days a week without a break, we would get awfully tired of,classes. Thank good- ness for weekends. If we had to go to school 12 months a year, we would get tired of studying. Horray for summer holidays and the March Break. Everyone needs a little break from the same routine and this is why i will not be writing this column again until early in June. Now 1 know what 1 want to do, know what i should do, know what 1 can do and know what I'm going to do. This will give the writer and the readers a break too. Sorry and thanks for reading. Trish Rimmer There will still be birthday notices in the paper, so if you know of anyone who will be celebrating a birthday soon, please send their name, age and birthday to The Huron Expositor, Box 69, Seaforth or phone 527-0240.

The costume committee is having quite a struggle find- ing the costumes that are needed to make the play a success. if you have any of the items listed below it would be greatly appreciated if you could send them to the school or phone at 527-0970 and arrange for someone to pick them up. We will be sure to take the best possible care of any clothing that we are loaned. If you could put a piece of tape with your name on each piece of clothing it would make returning them a lot easier. If yea could send any of your items to the school by Friday it would make our jobs a lot easier. Thanks a lot.

Food is always -aAA my mind, wherever 1 may be at home, church; work and especial) St school. Every- thing I do and see here in this gingerbread schoolhouse re- minds me of food. As I sit in geography class staring at the world map, visions of continent plums dance in my head. South America seems to be a piece of Grandma's homemade apple pie whereas Australia looks like a chocolate chip cookie. Just think of all the Chinese food in China, the spaghetti and pizza in Italy and all of the ice-cream at the North Pole. But wouldn't you know it, my own province is a crispy chicken leg from Ken- tucky Fried Chicken. By the time class is over I'm fam- ished and 1 can't seem to find the map anywhere. Next class is math. A1I those numbers and letters of algebra might as well be Campbell's Alphabet Soup. By lunch my stomach is growling and I'm suffering from extreme hunger. As I go to my favourite spot the cafeteria I can't help but to notice all the people in the hall. I see stringbeans, shrimps, butterballs and in every crowd you get a chicken. I hear the odd comment such as "holy hot dog", "oh baloney" and by the time i've reached my destination I'm as hungry as a horse. As I wait in line trying to remain as cool as a cucumber my once peaches and cream complexion has turned beet red from anger. At last I'm able to enjoyall my favourite fattening food. 1 have to say that my English class takes the cake. As 1 walk into the room and see a bunch of huts, 1 also notice all the boxes of chocolates (books) and the chalk that reminds, me of peppermint sticks 1 don't know why it is that junk food tes so good and good food tas r so junky! - 1 jus a delicious, tempt ing, moa; watering. irrest- ible f t r,' .

Yes, unfortunately for faithful spectators, it is true. However, we can look back on their accomplishments with pride. As you know, they won the Western Ontar- io (WOSSA) competition. For those who may be new to this fair school, we should inform you that this is their third consecutive year. Will they make a tradition of this? Time will tell. The Great Ones did not win the all -Ontario competit- ion, but they did place a very respectable fourth, and all heartily congratulate them. Their overall score now stands at 30 wins and 17 losses. The top scorer for the season was Eddy Nielsen, with Dave Murray coming in a close second. Both of them went on to play in an all-star game. Congratulations to the team and best of luck. —Jane Van de Ban 550 Club to Montreal The 550 club is only one of the many clubs at Seaforth DHS.
