It cont s excerpts from papers written by .fresh an classes, which were assembled by a hi •rian..Spelling was atrocious. It was clear ey did not know the meaning of some wo they used. History was something they 'were totally confused about. It was app ent that in writing they were unable to exp ss themselves clearly in acceptable En ish. In earlier days grads from • Little R "Schoolhouses" would have made a b r showing. If this article presents an a rate picture of the average students in f hman classes of our universities it is a d' al reflection of our expensive education- al system. e ie Progressive Conservative Party is tatic. With the Mulroney wins in the recent two byelections, a bonus one in B.C. arrr,,,ddd the expected in Central Nova, the, P.C.'s at� wea jing wide gloating grins. They raticipate the sweet scent of victory in the xt federal election after the years of Liberal domination. Even Prime Minister 7rudeau concedes that "Mulroney will be a formidable opponent." Would Brian Mul- vey make the kind of Prirhe Minister we eed or, would he not? Nobody at this time an give a positive answer. A P.C. overnment after the next election is ertainly a possibility. Many Canadians are isillust ned and unhappy with the present state of affairs. They are hopeful that a change of government would bring improve- ment. This (question has heed' raised. "Are women more aggressive 'than men? Look back in history. There you will find much evidence that many families were ruled, with an, Iron hand, by a woman.. The , aged $ttlhdmptller was the sole decisive voice in all 'family matters. She controlled her children and her grandchildren. No one married without her consent, or dared defiance to her autocratic rule. Notorious mistresses also controlled the lives of influential men. IVow think about the women of today. Many have fought and achieved positions of power and influence which not so long ago were held exclusively by men. Think again. Do you not know of families where the wife and mother is the aggressive one. Tne one who pushes and strives for accomplishment. The so-called "power behind the throne." Sure you do! in view of all this, can we not assume that there are women, who, if not more aggressive than men, are equally so. Some Americans, it seems. keep close tabs, and know more about Canadian affairs, than most Canadians ,do. They have announced that Mulroney will be the next • Canadian Prime Minister. A U.S. counsel- ling firm said the Conservative leader Brian Mulroney will almost certainly be the next Prime Minister of Canada and that the foreign investment climate will improve under his government. While he is politically inexperienced he 'will bring the Conserva- tives to power "because of his image, not his record.' After the ousting of a senior citizen from her apartment because she had a dog, another landlady has said she will raise a lady's apartment rent 525 a month unless she gets rid of her two cats. It seems the dog incident has inspired others to deprive animal lovers of their pets. The lady with the cats said she will erect a barrier on her balcony that will keep her cats from invading her neighbor's balcony. The landlady is adamant. Out go the cats, or, up goes the rent. When'. one lives alone, others do not realize how much loved pets can mean to them.
