To Go Steady or
Not to Go Steady?
That Is the Question
BY JANE DAY 128
This question arises in most
teen-age minds, There are
varying opinions depending on
the individual. 'l-he age-factor
seems to be the greatest in-
fluence. From a survey that I
made, I found that those still in
high school are -all for it" and
those out of schcol, working
and raising families are con-
strastingly against it.
A sensible girl in grade 11
said that from perotnal experi-
ence, going steadv "is wonder-
for When asked why she lik-
ed it so well she said it is be-
cause she just has no desire to
go out with any other boy. Jok-
ingly, a grade 12 female stud-
ent said " Going steady is fine,
if he can afford me."
To quote a freshman (grade
9), going steady "is neat!" This
same girl feels if you really
like a certain boy, there is no
need to "play the field". Two
other grade 9 students agree
with it with the stipulation that
both parties involved are faith-
ful. Another grade 11 girl ob-
served that going steady is great

Another new teacher who is
seen in the crowds at Wingham
District High School is Miss
Hoople,
She was born and raised in
London, Ontario. MedwayHigh
School and the University of
Western. Ontario supplied her
with her schooling.
Before teaching in Wingham
she worked at a library. Her
hobby is painting with water
colors.
Miss Hoople also taught
swimming lessons and enjoyed
doing this very much. She
found that she liked to work
with young people and so she
In her opinion, students of
today are under too much pres-
sure. She thinks more time
should be spent in the library.
We wish Miss Hoople the
best at Winghaen District High
School.
BY CARMAN HAMILTON 12B
We welcome to our high
school a new but capable teach-
er, Miss Jane Hetherington.
Miss Hetherington was born
in Wingham and acquired her
early education in the Wingham
Public School and then at our
Wingham District High School.
She then enrolled at the Univer-
sity of Western Ontario where
she received her B.A. degree.
-After acquiring this, her desire
to work in a library took her to
'the University of Toronto to
study for her B.L.S.
Her outside interests centre
around sports. She is an avid
sports fan as well as a partici- •
pant. Her main interests are
curling and skiing.
Miss Hetherington originally
wanted to work full time in a
high school library and nor be a
reacher, but she has altered this
desire as many people do, and
has become both. She runs the
school's library as well as teach-
' ing Grade 10 History and Grade
,9 Library.
Miss Hetherington's motto,
' 'Life isn't very funny", helps
her enjoy and lead a busy life.
I am sure we all wish her
success in her endeavours and
:tope she enjoys,her stay at

Wolseley Barracks in London
was home for $9 cadets from
Ontario during the first part of
their summer cadet course.
From July 3rd to July 28th the
cadets indulged in preparatory
and refresher training for their
experience at the National Ar-
my Cadet Camp near Banff, Al-
berta. All were master cadets
chosen from schools across Can-
ada. A cadet must pass exams
set by "eye staff" covering all
phases of cadet training before '
being classed as a "master" ca-
det.
At London instruction in
communications, drill, na-
tional survival, personal hy-
giene in the field, sports and
route marching was received.
Special dress uniforms were is-
sued here and personally tailor
ed for our use at camp.
Even though the facilities
were excellent at Wolseley
everyone was happy to be leav-
ing for Banff at 5:00 a.m. of
the 28th.
Via Vanguard we reached
Toronto. From Toronto our
DC-8 whisked us to Calgary
where we arrived 20 minutes
later (Calgary time). We were
bussed the remaining distance
to camp in time for a turkey
dinner at noon.
The 215 cadets attending
camp were placed into four
companies in random order to
allow mixing with the cadets
from other provinces. Also at-
tending the camp were six Brit-
ish cadets. A weekly rotating
schedule was used by all the
companies.
CLIMB MT. COOPER
The first week my company,
A company, was on bivouac.
The first day we were initiated
by a successful climb of 7500
foot Mount Cooper which is one
of the smaller mountains. On-
ly three people were hospitaliz-
ed after a fall. In successive
days we made a rescue cable
crossing of a canyon, crossed a
river on a rope, practised cliff
climbing and repelling (con-
trolled descent down a cliff on
a rope) and made a rescue of
an imaginary victim in the
woods while under imaginary
enemy attack until the unim-
aginary hour of 2.00 a.m. Our
instructor (nick-named the
"mountain goat") gave us use-
ful instruction on the sport of
mountain climbing and the
equipment necessary and raised
our morale with statements such
as "One slip and you're dead;
there are no second chances."
The second week of camp
was taken up with instruction on
unarmed combat, first aid,
drill, sports and tours of Lake
Minnewanka by boat, a swim
at the cave and basin, St.
George's island zoo and the Cal-
gary Museum. Thursday night
wd became the imaginary en-
emy for the company on biv-
ouac.
60-MILE TREK
The third week of camp was
taken up with a 60-mile trek
around Lake Minnewanka with
50-.pound packs. We lived on
ration packs and slept In "Hoot-
chies" as tents made of rain-
coats. We were lucky to have
good weather. The others got
rained on. It only snowed once
that week. Friday morning we
shivered through Carrot Creek,
(which is glacial melt-water)
53 times before returning to
camp.
On the last week of camp
we had more instruction, as in
the second week, plus more
tours. That week we went up

The Also Rans
BY GEORGE VALLANCE 11A
I decided to go our for cross-
country this year because of my
great, unwavering devotion to
good old W. D. H. S. , a desire
to improve myself both phYsi-
tally and mentally, and the
' fact that if I didn't my father
would have lots for me to do at 1.
home.
At the first practice 41 boys
lined up to prove to themselves I
that they had what it takes to ;!
make the cross-ccntry team.
They weren't going to be soft
and go our for football. At the
end of the four mile jaunt, we
cra wled over the finish line,
dragging our pulled mesclesand
blisters behind us.
The next night 15 of us,
edged on by our coach Mr.
Stuckey, had running down to a
' science. It was an automatic
action of shoving one foot for-
ward, collapsing over it, and
then quickly shoving the other
foot forward and collapsing on
it before you fiat on your
face. On this practice we were
accompanied by Mr, Stuckey
tin his Jaguar).
At the next practice the l
of us were put through some
wooderful hill work, again at-
o.onteaored by .Sr. Stuckey,
who wasn't in his Jaguar this
time. He stood at the top of
the hill and kept track of the
times. ny now we were getting
into shape. We no longer had
any feeling in our legs.
Tomorrow night the four of
them will still be cut on The
ttack, just waiting for some-
one to ask them for the: auto-
graphs. Mr, Stuckey has them
working en a new theo.ty, that
running wears down blisters,
