Parents say yes
to physical education
A ccordingto 4989 Gallup Poll,
a whopping 94 per cent of,
Canadians think that physical'
education in schools is important.
Furthermore; overhalf of Canadians
believe physical education is either
as important as or more important
than academic subjects. like
mathematics and reading.
"Parents are right on," says Ian
Craigon, director of the national
Quality Daily Physical Education
(QDPE) program, organized by the
Canadian Association for. Health,
Physical Education and Recreation
(CAHPER). "Research shows that
students in a quality, daily physical
education program have better,
health, are less susceptible to stress,
are more independent and play better
with others. They also perform
better academically and they have
more positive . attitudes toward
school."
The Gallup study, on Canadians'
views on physical education was
commissioned by Fitness Canada
and released at the annual meeting
of CAHPER. This year, for the first
time, CALIPER is recognizing 69
elementary and secondary `schools
across Canada who already offer a
high-quality, dailyphysical education
program , Winning schools get a
large, bnghtbanner,whieh.issent to
the school board for presentation to
the schools.'
According to the recent, Gallup.
survey, some 29 per cent of decided
Canadians think the physical
education programs that students
now receive in school are inadequate.

Beware of

thISAIMIBUNGSose �', movies by Pat Livingston
The ewe with which we couch potatoes
can obtain movies for home viewing is
great, however, movie butts mut be on
their toes ars to what they are Wag haeme
to view. Locally, we have three outlets
where hundreds of nseviee are available..
Now dais column le no reflection u* those
outlets, or the managers of them, as they
have little to do with the movies placed
at their :disposes!.
Mr. Fixit is a great one for grabbing a
movie an his way home. Over the last
few months he has brought home a few
that do not deserve to be called movies.
Suitable descriptive words for the
aforementioned would be .. trash, POOP
or Junk.
Having viewed :all the latest releases
available, Mr. Fixit's choice last week
proved to,be 90 minutes of "trash" with.
p��. bye
actors, producedbyby unknownproducers;
As home viewers We are taken in by the
capsule of information contained on the
back of the movie. It always sounds lice
a good Movie. The fact that we do not
recognize any of the names of the actors
should be a tip off to perhaps question
your choice. But heck all actors start
somewhere,' usually as unknown and then
rise to stridden.

We can usually telt rift at the begin-
ning of viewing if then dioice was a
mistake. But once you've paid fur it and
have it home, you feel .some sort of
obligation to watch it, always hoping it
will get better.
One would wonder if it is the public's
demand for home movies that has led to
Such garbage being produced. It takes
nsaney to make these so called movies
and from Looking at the finished plisduct,
one could easily amnia* the budget was
a .low one. What a waste of ,money! . .
