Boys' Basketball
BY GLEN MADILL
On January 21, the two boys'
teams from Wingham again
took to the road, this time the
destination was Listowel. It
was a different game, a differ-
ent town and a different team,
but the same result. Both
teams lost, The Juniors took to
the floor first and put up a val-
iant effort, They got off to a
fast start and were leading for
most of the first half and then
the roof came down. Under a
last half splurge by Listowel,
Wingham went down to her sec-
ond defeat by the score of 54 -
37.
Then it was the seniors' turn
to show their basketball skills.
By the time they started getting
skillful, it was too late. Lis-
towel jumped into a big lead
during the first half of play and
the outcome of the game was
cast. In the second half the
team began to click and al-
most matched Listowel, basket
for basket. Murray Procter led
Wingham with 24 points. A
great effort by Murray. Final
score 71 - 43.
Accepting
Grade l2ers
Apart from Waterloo Luther-
an University, at least two
other Ontario universities have
announced they will accept top-
flight Grade 12 students for uni-
versity entrance this September.
Last Wednesday Waterloo Lu-
theran announced 15 to 25 se-
lected Grade 12 students who
complete two courses at sum-
mer school will be admitted to
first year in the arts degree
courses. The students must
have a 75-per cent average.
W. G. Tamblyn, president
of Lakehead University at Port
Arthur, announced that his
school would accept first-year
students who have not written
Grade 13 examinations. The
university said it will accept
students who have an over-all
average of at least 80 per cent.
The policies are similar to
recent entrance plans adopted
by the University of Guelph.
The University of Windsor
will accept Grade 13 students
before the results of their final
papers are known if those stu-
dents have maintained a 75 per
cent average through their
final year.
Graduate School
Of Social Work
To Be Launched
A graduate School of Social
Work, the first to be organized
in Canada since 1952, will be
launched this year by Waterloo
Lutheran University. Dr. Wil-
liam J. Villaume, the univer-
sity's president, said the school
will help to meet the greatly
increased need for professional
social workers in Canada.
"There are only eight gradu-
ate schools of social work in
Canada to meet the need creat-
ed by the tremendous develop-
ment of welfare programs," he
said. "The problem of finding
trained personnel is becoming
increasingly acute. "
Waterloo Lutheran's new
school will be headed by Dean
Sheldon Lloyd Rahn, who is
coming to the university from
his position as executive direc-
tor of the department of social
welfare, National Council of
Churches of Christ in the U.S.A.
The new School of Social
Work probably will limit enrol-
ment since suitable off-campus
training posts in social welfare
agencies must be secured. The
first class may number about
25 or 30.
Entrance requirements call
for a general degree in arts. Af-
ter a two year program, suc-
cessful candidates will be
awarded a Master of Social
Work degree.
Agencies are having great
difficulty in finding trained
people, Last year, for exam-
ple, there were about 1,700
vacancies in various Canadian
agencies and 200 graduates to
fill them,

Woodworking is taught in
W,D.H. S. by the technical di-
rector, Mr. Beard. The shop
in this school is one of the best
in the province, It is well
equipped with hand tools and
power machines which are all
basic to the woodworking in-
dustry.
The woodworking course
taught in this school has many
purposes. One purpose is to
prepare the student to enter the
carpentry trade, In this prepar-
ation he is given a basic know-
ledge of maintenance and op-
eration of all machines and
equipment. Whether one plans
to be a full time woodworker
or not, this course is an excel-
lent one to take because main-
tenance around the home will
always be needed. If one en-
joys woodworking and has a
knowledge of different woods
and their uses woodworking
may become an interesting
hobby.
The course that is taken is a
four year science, technology
and trades course, In grades
nine and ten students are given
a general course which includes
all four shops which are offered
at the present time; woodwork-
ing, drafting, auto mechanics
and electricity. At the end of
grade ten if one feels well suit-
ed for woodworking, he may
major in that shop. Along
with the major shop there are
two related shops. Students in
grade eleven study drafting and
in grade twelve they take elec-
tricity, along with woodwork-
ing.
In the first year of the wood-
working course one learns tech-
; nical terminology as well as
o the proper way to use hand
tools. Small projects are made
I to improve one's skills with
hand tools, as well as some
practical tests.
In the second year students
are introduced to power ma-
chines, and proper and safe
operation is taught. By the end
of grade ten one may choose a
shop in which to major. If it is
woodworking he will study mill
work and cabinet work and will
design the projects he makes,
Since he has remembered the
operations of the machine from
grade ten he now has to learn
the detailed maintenance of
each machine.
In the last year of the course
construction of structural build-
ings is taught as well as mill
work related to this trade.
The important features of
the related courses are that in
drafting the student learns to
read blueprints which are im-
portant to all phases of the
woodworking industry. He is
also given a general know-
ledge of building types and
studies the various types of de-
sign. The importance of elec-
tricity to woodworking is that
if he intends to become a car-
penter he will need a complete
understanding of construction
and location of circuits to al-
low space for them to be fitted
into the structure.
When one receives this edu-
cation he will have obtained a
graduation diploma and he will
therefore be able to go out to
apprentice in one of the wood-
working trades. After receiv-
,.
istrict High School News ing a graduation diploma at the
end of grade twelve, one serves
an apprenticeship in the practi-
cal field of the woodworking
industry in which he wishes to
follow as his life's work, and
so become a contributing mem-
ber of Canada's important labor
force.
A son, coming home after
what had supposedly been are-
gular day at school, had a long
string of fresh fish thrown over
his shoulder. His father ex-
claimed as the son reached the
front door. "Billy, you played
hockey today! Where?"
