T-A photo See students as happy Howard Aitken, Secretary •••••••...m.rommem~rom w•goirow., Meet our new teachers Mrs. Hern wanted a country or small town school because she feels students are a little more friendly and co-operative, than they are in a city. Needless to say, she was pleased to get a job at our school. It is to be hoped she won't be disappointed! By Sue McCaffrey Finally the fateful day has come. My mind races with anxious thoughts: 'Who will I know? What will my teachers be like? Each step taking me nearer to that huge red monstrosity is slower and slower. Frightened thoughts of a grade 9-er? No, reflections of one of the pillars of school society, an almighty grade 13 student, It's hard to believe that I'm really in grade 13. Where's all the glory? It doesn't feel any dif- ferent , merely like a re-cycled grade 12 student. It was fact re- cycling, too - what happened to that three month summer we were supposed to have? It cer- tainly disappeared quickly. The school itself seems eternal, unchangeable. There are a few new teachers but the majority are an almost permanent fixture, barely dissolvable from these surroundings. The first day is as first days always are: rushed, confusing; a meeting of old friends , . . and suddenly the realization that in up-turned, grade 9 faces there is awe! By the end of the morning, my new image is firmly fixed in my mind. I walk home, feeling every inch a senior. Somewhere, deep inside, a voice is saying 'Who, you?' and laughing hysterically. By BOB DOERR I wish that I could assure you that this year's Guardian will be the greatest ever and will truly represent the students of this school and their activities, wants and needs. Unfortunately, however, I have no right to do so. This newspaper is not my responsibility alone nor exclusively that of the newspaper staff. it is the newspaper of the students and teachers of this school, and therefore its subsequent success or failure is entirely their responsibility. Of course the newspaper staff and myself will make every effort to cover every story, but without your assistance it will be impossible. If there is some event that you think should be covered in the paper, it is up to you either to write it up yourself and place it in. the Guardian mailbox in the main office or inform a member of the newspaper staff so that we can write it. If you feel that there is some aspect of the school, school life, or life in general that you would like to comment on, write a "letter to the editor" and if at all feasible, it will be published. You must sign the letter but your name will be withheld from print if you so request. Also any artistic effort which you hand in such as poetry or short, short stories will be published if possible, In regard to artistic effort the newspaper also hopes to hold another creative writing contest this year. There will be more details later. One of the regular features that we hope to have this year is an opinion poll of the students and teachers. Any class or club that wishes to take upon itself the production of an entire issue on a theme it is interested in, can contact my co-editor Susan McCaffrey or myself for permission to do so. I sincerely hope that you enjoy this issue of the Guardian and take it upon yourself to help us produce many more better ones. President outlines activities for students By Doug Mock Student Council President The following are some of the activities planned by the student council executive for the next several weeks, This Friday class representatives and alternates to the class representatives, will be chosen by each home room at 9 a.m. graduated. Later, after coming to Canada, he passed from Althouse College. Why did he come here? He replied that it was the start of a world tour. After Canada he is going to New Zealand for a time, then South Africa. Does he like it here? I can't say says the English teacher. 'I haven't been here long enough does this sound all right?" I wanted a more complete answer, one that would contain the flavor of political controversey, and I got it. 'Not bad for an old colony. The natives are friendly.' MISS KING Miss Barb King comes to us from South River where she taught last year. She originally comes from Stratford, then at- tended University of Western Ontario where she majored in English and psychology. This year, Miss King will be doing some counselling along with teaching English. Miss King is also this year's staff advisor to the stupendous, magnificent, fantastical, ever-glorious Guardian. 'Gymnastics and all sports interest Miss King, and she would like to start a ski team, As well, she wants to become involved with the Mediterranean trip. She finds her students 'super- keen' compared to last year. They have a lot of enthusiasm that needs to be channeled. Both staff and students are very co- operative. She would like to see a drama club that is better — Please turn to page 18 It is the executive's hope that willing workers will run for the position of class representatives and will accept the respon- sibilities which would be their's as part of the council. On Tuesday September 21 there will be an important meeting of the full student council in the library. The initiation days for the grade nines are Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, September 22, 23 and 24. I hope all the niners will take part in the fun during these three days. There will be rules posted on Monday Sept 20, in front of the main office which pertain to the initiation days. The Canadian Recording Group, Whitehouse, will play at a By Paul F. Martin MR. AUNGER Among our large and copious staff, I had the privilege of in- terviewing two new teachers at our school. Mr. Aunger, who teaches physics and chemistry, was born in Alberta, His first ambition which came to mind was to be a cowboy since that was one of the 'in' things of the area in which he lived. He later graduated from the University of Alberta in Edmonton with an honor's degree in chemistry. He applied this knowledge when he sought and obtained employment • at Polymer's research and development section in Sarnia. Why did he come here? Well, after teaching in Owen Sound for several years, he felt that he should attempt teaching in a new school system form. This is the reason for his coming here, He likes the informal situation at the school, being one of the reasons why, so far, he likes living and working in Exeter. MR. BROOKS The second victim fallen to my pen is a man who speaks with some sort of foreign accent (don't quote me, but it is probably sythesized). Mr. Brooks was born in England and educated there. He came to Canada in Sep- tember, 1970. Attending Durham College, near Hadrian's Wall (or in other words, the border), he Opinion poll By Debbie Hillman The following question was put to several grade 9 students, "What is your first impression of high school?" "Look at all the guys" - Brenda Sauder "Ever different" - Kelly Goddard "My aching feet" - Hannah Mathers "I have found staff members and senior students most helpful" - Brenda Cooper "It's going to be fun" - Cindy Small "I felt lost" - Veronica Haley "I think my teachers this year aren't too bad" - Barry Hess "It's a big plice" - Teresa Ondrejicka "Most of my teachers are okay" - no name "It's okay" - Stephen Cann "• . • is it hot?" - Cyril Cathcart "Yuk" - Helen Green "There are lots of girls and hot pants" - Chris Mineault "Debbie "It's a nice place once you get to know it" - Debbie Parsons dance, for the students of the school on the last day of initiation. This is the first dance of the year and the students at- tendance and behaviour will guide us in our decision about further dances, Remember there will be no smoking on the dance floor, drinking will not be tolerated on school premises; we urge all students not to drink before coming to the dance and please use the ashtrays provided if you smoke in the main foyer or the cafeteria. Each student will be allowed to bring only one guest who must be of the opposite sex. The dance student will sign a guest book, several days before the dance stating his name and the name of his guest. People who are not students of this school and whose names are not listed in the guest book will not be allowed into the dance. Also, the student is totally responsible for his guest, at the dance, Large crowd for outers Grid season gets started By Muriel Abbott MISS SMITH The latest Latin and English teacher is Miss Karen Smith. She is a native of Blenheim and at- tended the University of Western Ontario. When asked about her in- terests, Miss Smith replied 'Do I have any?' Actually she sounds like a fairly active person. She skiis and is learning to bowl, as well as being an avid fan of cooking and sewing. This is Miss Smith's first year of teaching and she really likes it at our school. She finds the schools where she practice taught were quite rigorous in comparison to the atmosphere here. The staff and most of the students are quite likeable. In fact, her main observation is that the students are much more friendlier and at ease than their city-counterparts. Shame on all you ignorants, who haven't been taking Latin these past few years. Miss Smith tells the Guardian that everyone in the course of their high school career should have at least one course in Latin! 7,- = O. = 4.

HERN The new red-headed math teacher on staff is Mrs. Laura Hern. This local girl attended a one room school in Usborne Township, then Medway High School in Arva. She continued to the University of Western Ontario and finished up at Althouse College last year, Mrs. Hern is expecting 'a really good year' at our school. She finds her students are terrific in class, and are quite friendly. (Keep up the good work, kid- dies!) Classroom situations are relaxed and informal, Because of this feeling, she doesn't worry about her 'goof-ups' (though her students know they are minor ones) as she might, otherwise.

Both teams have been practising hard for several weeks now in preparation for this first crucial game, which can so easily set the pace for the rest of the season. The seniors, with coach Mr. Bogart and his assistant Mr. Mickle, play at 12 o'clock noon while the Juniors under the coaching of Mr. Ellison with Mr. Cox as his assistant, play at 1:30 p.m. The girls basketball teams with Miss Gilleland as junior coach and Miss Rowe as senior coach started practicing this Monday. The cross country team, which made such a good showing last year, under the direction of Mr. Fulop has started practice for this year's meets. Become involved with the Party for ALL the People! Last Thursday was the first meeting of this years Outers Club under the supervision of the great white leader Carl Mills. There were approximately 35 in at- tendance which is a large in- crease in numbers over previous years, One of their first duties was to choose new officers. Tim Mock was elected president, Susan Wooden secretary and Gwen Mills was voted treasurer. The Outers plan to do much outdoor work, especially canoeing, this fall and plan to have an overnight trip sometime during the next month. The biggest problem facing the newly formed club is a lack of sufficient equipment. They are going to have to rectify this situation if they plan to do any serious out-tripping. I'm sure that we will give them all of our support. The club then chose Wednesday night activity period for its usual meeting time, TO SUPERVISE YEAR BOOK — Students and staff members at South Huron District High School participate in preparation of the school's Year Book.
