The'two girls have produced library Cards for the board's library consultant 'Edith Mc- Carroll and compiled mater- ials from past professional develppment days for distri- bution among the 19 separate schools in the system. "Kits" for the junior and intermediate reading pro - grains have also been pieced together under the Experi- eneC,program. A similar kit, following Bloom's Taxon- omy,4a philosophy of creative thinking, has also been pre- pared fpr the board's recently approved program ,1for the gifted. .

The students, Stephen Leinmon of Mitchell, Peter t • Atalmormar Frehner and David Welker both of St. Marys, Jayne Delaney of Dublin and Doug Denomme of Zurich have loaded the cassettes with about 4,000 programs. Taking the programs from disks already aLthe board office as well as from9l'ogram catalogues from across the province, the objective is to put these tapes on the casset- tes to be distributed around. the separate schools in the two counties. Each school has had an opportunity to order these cassettes at $1.25 each from 1.000 possible programs. There are about three to four programs per cassettes and by the end of July the student's had completed about 1,200 to 1,300 cas- settes. . Not only do the students rogram the computers, to 'DLoad", the term used for the transferring of the pro- gram from disk to cassette, but they re -check the cas- settes, label and file them for each school. Doug Denomme has even prepared special programs specifically for the students in Huron and Perth. He has adapted a geography pro - Cram prepared on Huron ounty and has done com- parable work in subjects such as history, math and spelling. Denise Lane, who has been working in the Experience program offered by the beard for about six years, has organized the project since May. Doug started working in June, while the rest of the students started in July. The project ended on Aug. 19. As in all other Experience programs, this one financed by theMinistry ofl�ducation, the students receive -mini- ' mum wage. For those under 18 the minimum wage is $2.65 and over 18 the mini - .mum is $3.50 per hour. All students work a 35 -hour week.

Aug. 11, As 'fn the ppsat, Playhouse offerii',k; major Broadwaymusical u�3Ri final attraction of;the season, but, this season South Pacific will be in perfornfance for, four weeks until Sept.�10. South" Pacific, based on James A, Michener's'Pulit- zer prize-winning book of tales of Americans at war in the South Seas', relates two love stories. The first ro- mance occurs betweep.:En- sign Nellie Forbush,' a navy nurse from Little Rock, Ar- kansas, and Emilia de Becquie, a mature Fregch plantation owner. The second tale focuses on Marine lieutenant • Joseph Cable and the lovely Polyne- sian girl, Liat. Both love stories are dramatically af- fected by World War 11 and both Americans learn to face their inner most feelings. For Nellie, the results are joyous, ,, but for Cable only tragedy awaits. Rounding out the cast of South Pacific are Sharon Dyer as Bloody Mary, the South Seas pedlar who•spe- ' cializes in grass skirts. boars' teeth and shrunken heads, and David Brown as Luther Billis, Seabee and con -man par excellence. In addition, director Ron- ald Ulrich and musical di- rector Barbara Young have a assembled one of the strong- est choruses ever to hit the HCP stage, and Madeline Paul's choreography has to be keen to be believed. Tickets for South Pacific are currently available from both the HCP ticket office and all regular outlets in London, Sarnia, Goderich, Strathroy and Exeter. For reservations calf (519) 238- 8451.

The initial results show very limited if any yield increase under intensive manage- ment. Of course, you cannot draw conclusions from one year's results. Gordon Lobb of Clinton planted Fredrick and used a high and low rate of nitrogen. He also applied some fungicides and growth regulators. Gordon's com- ments were that the extra yield from the intensive management could not pay for the cost of the materials. Fredrick may not respond to this management, but perhaps one of the other varieties will respond. WHEAT CULTURAL PRACTICES We in O.M.A.F. recom- mended that you do not plant beans after beans or barley after barley or wheat after barley. We also recommend that you do not plant wheat after wheat. However, you know you can plant beans after beans, and barley after barley or even wheat after barley and get a decent yield. But, when we recommend that you don't plant wheat after wheat we really mean it. Do not plant wheat after wheat. The main reason for low yields in some fields in 1983 was disease. The predomi- nate diseases were Take -all, toot rot and Cercosperella - (straw breakers disease). These diseases live in the soil and multiply on wheat and barley. For this reason you should not plant wheat after wheat. You should not plant wheat after barley if the barley is following wheat. The reason is that the Take -all disease will not affect the barley, but will multiply in the soil planted with barley. When you plant the wheat after barley the soil will have a high level of disease. You should plant wheat after forage, beans or corn. If you plant wheat after wheat you can expect up to a 66% yield reduction four out of five years. If you plant wheat after barley you can expect about a 15% yield reduction 2 out of 3 years. If the barley was preceded by wheat the yield reduction is much greater. I am sure you will know someone who has planted wheat after wheat and had good results. You mayhave even done it yourselfAs 1 mentioned earlier you can follow that rotation and get away with it every once and awhile. tint the odds are against you getting a good r yield.
