This is what Ontario is doing to help solve them in advance. Recently arrangements were made for a group of Indian children to attend the public school in a northern Ontario town. The principal of the school in the town was aware that Indian children sometimes had a rough time at the hands of other students, and to try to forestall this kind of situation, he called in a Human Rights Commission counsellor to talk to the other children, The counsellor asked the children if any of them had ever moved to a new school, and what they thought it would feel like if they were the strangers In this way he helped them understand how the Indian children would be feeling when they arrived, and the integration proceeded relatively smoothly. Community counselling is one of the major roles of your Ontario Human Rights Commission. We hold seminars and dis- cussions with police in areas where there are communication barriers between them and minority groups, to help relieve ten- sion and promote mutual understanding, We attend meetings of immigrants and native-born minority groups to explain to them both their rights under the legislation and their responsibilities as citizens of this Province. We also help bring people into contact with local agencies like home-and-school groups, community and government agen- cies, and churches, which are available to help but which many people don't even know exist. Wherever there's a difficulty based on race, language, colour or creed, the Human Rights Commission is available to generate discussion and motivate people to develop understanding and respect for the other's point of view. Our job is to help bring people together and encourage healthier relationships among all groups.

Potpourri Theatre Arts club travel to London to see play Four South Huron High School students are on their way to the regional playoffs in Clinton as a result of their expertise in a safety quiz which was run last Monday at SHDHS. Dan Laporte, Steve Kenny, Chris Archambault and Francis Hartman, collectively known as De Ha nns Dynamos were Editorial Litterbugs bug editor To the Student Body; Little children, I am sadly disheartened. I would never have thought that one day I would be looking upon SHDHS students as little kindergarten kids. On Friday, Mr. Wooden tackled the issue of the trail of litter from the doors of our school right up to the other end of town. Lots of us sat through it to the end and yawned afterwards, and of course didn't pay the slightest amount of attention, but if you look closely on your next journey to the pool hall, little girls and boys, you will see the garbage that you and your friends have deposited along the way. It is scattered along the street, and on other people's lawns. There is John's "Coffee Crisp" wrapper! Across the street is Jane's potato chip bag! People have better things to do than pick up our garbage. Children, are we really this irresponsible that we must behave like wee tots who don't know any better? Unfortunately it's not only outside that a garbage problem exists. It exists inside the school, too! Is it asking too much to remove your milk container from a table in the cafeteria! There is always a garbage can not very far away. The same with candy wrappers in the hall — there is a gar- bage can at every fountain and in every washroom. Why not use them? Can't we, as secondary school students, show the school board and the people of Exeter that we are responsible people, not irresponsible children? After all, it's another black mark against us. Try it, you'll like the neatness that results. Yours cordially, a Guardian Co-Editor Main Street By MARY WARBURTON On November 19, the Theatre Arts students of SHDHS travelled to London to view the opening of two plays at Theatre London, The first play was entitled "Surprise! Surprise!" written by Michel Tremblay, starring Jane Eastwood, Marilyn Lightstone, and Brenda Donohue. It was a brief one-act play with the setting in Montreal's East End. The comedy, which took place over the phones of three working class women, ended in a state of total chaos when two of them attempted to plan a surprise party for a girl with the same first name as the third. The third woman found out about the party and thought it was for her when one of the planners became confused about who the person to whom she was speaking was. On attempting' to straighten out the situation, it merely became worse. The party never did materialize for the play was cut off beforehand. The second play, entitled "Shelter", was written by Carol Bolt and the cast consisted of the three former actresses as well as Wendy Thatcher and Kay Hawtrey. Taking place in Saskatchewan, it was about five women, one of whom was in- volved in a wedding, and another in a funeral and an election. Being a comedy, the content was also serious for it portrayed women in their various roles of today, satirized some of the values which people still hold, and through the election, dealt with the friction which exists between the east and west. One of the women was running for member of parliament for South Saskatchewan, while another was always pregnant and her husband had left her for one of the other women who was only interested in men who belonged to someone else. A fourth woman was a career girl who was all for women's lib and was determined she wouldn't sacrifice her plans for her forthcoming marriage. The fifth, her mother, could hardly wait to get her married off. The second play itself was sometimes hard to follow and as a result, many students did not enjoy it as well as they would have if they had understood it fully. "Nearly all our best men are dead! Carlyle, Tennyson, Browning, George Eliot! I'm not feeling very well myself!" "What is better than presence of mind in a Railwayiaccident? —Absence of body!"

Readers write Dear Editors: To get straight to the point, why is there some amateur photographer going around the school taking pictures of many un-interesting events which don't stand for a thing? This camera-happy person is going to a lot of the classrooms where work is in progress, clicking his camera at silly, meaningless things and just plaintly interrupting people and making a nuisance of himself. If this human being had more respect for other people he wouldn't go shoving a camera in their faces. Can't this pest be stopped? Maybe someone should take away the child's toy! Aggravated Onlooker Editors' Note: There is more than one amateur photographer going around,snapping photos,As to the camera- clickers,'what they snap at is not un-interesting to them, Otherwise why would they waste their film on nuts like you? In any case, you seem to be one of the students who are ignorant of school activity! There is a photoclub! There is a photo contest coming up! So instead of criticizing, co-operate. After all, some prize-winning photo may be of you! A win for Go-getters defeated by a team of Bruce Gaynor, Daryl Keys, Dave Perry and Randy Yearley, known as Gladding's Go-Getters. The safety quiz is sponsored by the Industrial Accident Prevention Association, It is a province wide contest involving high-school technical students. The programme, which is designed to make the student more aware of safety," convener and teacher Jim Gladding said, is directed towards technical students. The two teams for the SHDHS competition were comprised of the eight students who had the highest average mark in two tests given on safety. They were not placed on teams in any particular manner, but in an arbitrary choice of the panel which conducted the test. There were two sets of questions that were given this past Monday. Direct questions, or questions that were given to one particular team. Toss up questions, the other category, were questions that were merely thrown out to the participants and either team could answer them, the first team with the correct answer being given the allotted points. Buzzers attached to lights were used to signify a person's willingness to answer and to avoid confusion over who was first. Despite the opportunity, not all schools are participating in the programme, Gladding said, He added that only three of the potential five schools in Huron County are taking part. The IAPA is sponsoring the series of competitions to promote a greater awareness on student's parts of safety operations in relation to their industrial habits. They also hope that it will bridge the gap from school shops to the industrial shop, to give the student the benefit of the programme as a job reference and in the end to cut the toll of dangerous and serious accidents to permanent employees who have come fresh from school shops. It also gives many students a chance to compete, particularly those who are not athletically inclined. Some school boards now recognize the programmes as a partial credit in shop courses, The winners in Monday's competition receive $10, the losers $5. The Gladding Go- Getters will now advance to the next round of play which is to be held in Clinton. Should they win there, they will go on to play Oxford County in London Last year's team from SHDHS made it as far as the London round. After that it is the championship round. SAFE WINNERS — Bruce Gaynor, Daryl Keys, Dave Perry, and Randy Yearley,collectively known as Gladdings Go-Getters were the winners in the safety quiz held at SHDHS. They now advance to competitions to be held in Clinton. rn TRUST COMPANY SINCE 1889 Kurt Bowman, Manager Main St., Exeter 235-0530 T-A photo
