Last Saturday I found myself amazed
while reading an article in the London Free
Press. The 'front page stogy was about
Joanne Young, a math teacher at South
Huron 'District High School. She missed a
school day last Friday to join other'
anti -cruise missile protesters at the Litton
• *stems Canada Ltd. in Toronto. Also, on
that day 50 students of the same school
nuirched and waved signs before classes
began in the morning. This . particularly
interested me since the new principal ,at
SHDHS is the principal that our school had
up until last year.
While'reading this article 1 didn't have a
very good understanding of what nuclear
disarmament meant. Sure, 1 knew a little
about the missiles etc., but 1 did not
understand why people are so opposed to
nuclear weapons. All this 1 learned on
Sunday night while watching "The Day
OPERA WAS In Seaforth Wednesday when school. Opera singers, from left to right
members of the Canadian Opera Company include Rose Thompson, Tanta Parrish and
Ensemble performed at the Seaforth public Shari Saunders. Pianist Is Albert Krywolt.

Friday, Nov, 18, was hat, tie and
sunglasses day at S.D.H.S. Students were
advised to dress up and disguise themselves
from their teachers. All students who did not
dress up were charged 25c in homeroom as a
penalty fee. The response was good, and
. many students felt there should be more
dress -up days.
A 550 dance was held' from 8 p.m, til 12
' o'clock that evening in the S.D.H.S. gym.
Music was supplied by Rick Kloss. -
Ticket sales were reported as low, but
rumor has it, that there is a possibility of a
Christmas Dance. -Doris Glanville

After", a television program that depicted
what could happen if there was a nuclear
war. '
Like many other Canadians, l had beard a
lot about this program and was curious to
see just how scary it was. And, it was very
scary since It was realistic.
The newspapers warned against young
children watching the program and it also
cautioned against people watching the
program alone. It was important that the
viewer was able to discuss his/her feelings
about the show after watching it.
The program started off by giving the
viewer an idea• of what Kansas City,
Missouri looked like before the disaster hit.
It was a very -nice city, much much larger
than Seaforth, but in a way. the people were
very similar. The main characters of the
program were very down-to-earth and
realistic. I felt that this made it easier for me
to compare some of the characters to friends
horror of war
and , -.plc at 1 know. One of the things
that ',the d me the most throughout the
program was that the world leaders who
caused those missiles to go off did not even
know, or perhaps care whose lives .they
affected. What was the sense of such a war?
All it did was destroy nature and more
importantly, lives of human beings.
Before the explosion people were afraid of
what would become of their homes and their
families. After the warning was sent out,
there was a mad rush to stores for
non-perishable groceries, batteries, candles
and blankets. While watching the program I
felt as if.l was living right along with them,
searching for supplies and then shelter. The
people were easily panicked and afraid. I can
imagine why.
If I were to live through- such an ordeal,
which' is quite possible, 1 can imagine that
there would be a lot of questions going
through my mind. 1 would wonder what to ,
do, where to go, where my family and
dearest friends were and why this was
happening. It would be very, very frighten-
In.
tie movie, there were many people
stuck in traffic jams trying to -safely reach
home when the missiles hit. These people
were not even with their families. The first
thing that happened before the missiles
went off was the power went off. Motor
vehicles lost all power. Everything went
black. The explosion was like the sunblowing up. After the explosion there was
fall out that was almost, 1f not as harmful as
the explosion. •
The characters in the program seemed
very true to life, except they almost seemed
too nice. One family hesitated before letting
a stranger that needed shelter into their
basement. Most families would be very
worried about their food and water supply

Whatever, the weather
Spring, summer and fall have all been
whisked away, and it looks like winter is
trying to make sure it's good and ready to
stay, before it makes any ,definite commit-
ments.
It is time once again to start dragging out
scarves, mittens, toques and snow boots. 'or
right now, should I say mud -boots?
All of the little kids include a "please make
it snow, God," in their evening, prayers, and
drift off to sleep with visions of snowmen and
snowball fights in their heads. Then there are
the Mothers, including a "please let it freeze,
before my family dras anymore mud across
my nice, clean floors", in their prayers. Last,
but not least, let us remember our farmer-
fathers, who are basically content with
getting off their crops, running a good'Field,
and yelling at. the kids for his wife. who are
usually just in the process of wiping their
muddy shoes on the living -room carpet, ,•
The 'in-between' weather that we have
been experiencing of late, really makes a
' person wonder if we could be in for a cold;
brown 'Fhristmas. How depressing. Christ-
mas without snow is like .ice-cream without a
cone. I suppose 1 might be able to survive
through it all, just as long as 1 can be sure
Santa s sleigh will be able to make it through
all of that mud!! Maybe 1 should write him a
letter and ask about alternative transporta-
tion. If worst comes to worst I guess Santa
could rent a jet. - Dor"isGlanville
THE WALL
Well, this old bloodhound has been on the
trail again. I've kept my ears to the other
walls, and floors this past week, and 1 even
managed to skulk around the highschool
dance on Friday night. No event is safe from
my knowing ears and eyes.
Friday sure was an interesting day at
S.D.H.S. I learned quite a few things that I
never knew about certain people. For
instance, it looks like a certain D.W. knows
how to stand out in a crowd, where did you get.
that hatl K.H. and B.M. were also in the
proper spirit. but shame, shame on C.R., who
was not.
Even though the dance wasn't quite as
packed as.it could have been. I still managed
to leave at 12:30 with some pretty amazing
stuff. Come to think of it, so did K.W.
It is time once again for my final tips, or
what 1 call the 'quickies'. D.C. was actually
behaving on Friday night, but I.C. managed
to make up for it. It looks like love to me for
C.N. and also G.H. Speaking of love, G.R.
can't seem to take a hint.
Well, that's, all for now from the
Armpittamy of Gossip Galore. Remember to
be good this -week. because no one is safe
from The Wall. - The Wall
