In The London Free Pres-
s
When Alois Van Esbroeck en-
gaged. a welleirilling firm to
locate water on his farm at
Hensall, he couldn't believe- his
eyes when the driller's assis-
tant turned out to be a pretty
21 -year-old girl.
Anne Sharp, RR 2, Seaforth,
arrived on the scene with rub-
ber boots, jeans and her hard
hat. She's been on the- payroll
of W. D. HoPper and Sons, -Sea -
forth, • well -drilling firm, since
November, 1966.
The Hensall job was well num-
ber 50 for her,
"Dependable" was how Jim
Hopper described his assistant.
"In fact more so. than some
men. She works hard — we've
no complaint/. She's even had a
raise or two."
Per the soft-spoken, 5 foot, 2
inch, 120 pound girl, being a
Well -driller has meant being
on the job at 9 a.m. and eom-
pleting it anywhere from 3 p.m.
to michlight.
"It's not too strenuous,"
Anne said. "The heaviest part
is moving the 18 ton rig, set-
ting it up and dismantling it."
A well is bored) with a rotary
drill and her werk,can best be
described as pughinClevers, to
rotating rods by hand, — nec-
essary to Iseep.the drill clear of
stones which get. in the way
when the rig penetrates.
Her parents, Mr. and Mrs.
Keith Sharp and an older bro-
ther, who is .a chemist, haven't
objected in any way to Anne's
employment.
"It would be useless anyway,"
Anne' said.
"Besides •I think people are
gradually realizing it takes
more than men to run the world:
I do a man's job." •
On Jan. 2 °Anne will 'enter
another male field,
She has enrolled in a one
year general diploma course at
the Ontario Forest Technical
School in Dorset.
There she will be one of three
gitls in a class of 150 men, who
will be trained Under the ad-
ministration of the Ontario de-
partment of lands and forests.
As a graduate she will be a
qualified technician in forestry,
research and biology', fish and
wildlife and parks, and a con-
seryation officer,
, The school's director, R. W.
Hummel reports one girl has
graduated to date in the same
course.
Anne and her two female
eonipanions will be hpused in
separate houses at the residen-
tial school, located at 'Universi-
ty Forest and comprising 20,-
000 acres .of forest, land and wa-
ter. I
The couree combines clasg-
room and lab, instruction with
study in field exercises and
practice.
She will have 21 POI-6dg— :Pa'

nal photography+, a challenge
tor Anne who hOpeSSt� haVe
her piliat's licence by the end of
the month.
As part of her training she
will be expected to find employ-
ment in forestry, fish and wild-
life or an allied field, between
the three terms.
It looks like a busy year for
Anne who has a "yen" 'for
dances and parties too.
