QUESTION: Most of you en-
tered school thinking you would
receive the best education pus-
sible. The boys found their
spare periods taken by cadets
training from which they could
be exempted only for medical
reasons. They had to wear un-
comfortable uniforms for a week
and they stood for an hour at
rigid attention until some faint-
ed. Does the school have the
right to force compulsory par-
ticipation in cadets?
INTERVIEWER
DAVE WALSH
VALDEAN NOBLE
Office staff
JOE MANJIN: "No. Today we
tend to shun military move-
ments because of the trouble
they cause, therefore we should
not participate in any action
tending to such ends."
0-0-0
RAY CORRIN: "Cadet train-
ing in high school is a mundane
chore to most. The bumbling
inefficiency of these confused
souls in the high school's cadet
corps is too far removed from
the horrible potentials of mod-
ern warfare to be compulsory."
0-0-0
BRIAN CASLICK: "No. Army
training received in cadets is of
little use. The training in ca-
dets can be, at no time, put to
use in an advanced civilization.
It is therefore useless and has
no place in an educational in-
stitution."•

LOIS FERGUSON: "I don't
see any value in this cadet-
type course; is their training
program worth the cost of uni-
forms and equipment and the
school's time spent in it?"

JOHN ROSS: "Before coming
to this school cadet training on-
ly existed, to my knowledge, in
private or military schools. The
idea of this sort of function at
school is, and always will be,
frowned upon by a civil rights
obsessed society."

Mitchell DeZeeuw and Bill Skinn, members of the junior
boys' basketball team at last week's game. Bill managed
to put the Wingham lads ahead in the last minute of the
game with Stratford and then they went on to defeat
Clinton for fourth place in the Huron-Perth group. They
were to have been in the play-offs Saturday but were not
able to travel to Stratford because of stormy weather.

On Monday, February 20,
the students of Grade 12 E, F
and H visited the head office of
the London Life Insurance Com-
pany in London. We were
greeted by the personnel de-
partment manager who explain-
ed to us about the insurance in-
dustry in general and then about
their own particular company.
After this discussion we were
introduced to our touring guides
who took us up to the staff
cafeteria and each guide and
group enjoyed a full-course din-
ner provided by the firm. After
dinner we all gathered in a
huge lounge adjacent to the
cafeteria. Here we saw some
of the staff members enjoying
their noon hour by playing pool,
table-tennis, cards or just re-
laxing on comfortable couches
and watching television.
Our tour of the building be-
gan about 12:15 p.m. and as
we visited the different depart-
ments we saw the vast variety
of jobs which were in operation
on all the floors. Our tour in-
cluded watching a printing press
and the new IBM computor in
operation,
At the end of the tour we
again returned to the personnel
department where we met with
Mr. Munro and Mr. Swain.
They were ready to answer any
questions which we had to ask
about the tour.
On behalf of the students
Mary Ahara thanked Mr. Mun-
ro, Mr. Swain and the guides
for their assistance and hospi-
tality during the tour and all
showed their appreciation by a
round of applause for the men
and guides.
On behalf of the students I
would also like to thank all
those responsible for making
this trip possible and especially
Miss Armstrong and Mr. Kopas
who accompanied us vi the vis- •

cadets develop precision and
accuracy from squadron drills.
They present an impressive
sight on Cadet Inspection Day,
and because of this it should
evoke pride in them."

that the students are well be-
haved and present a good atti-
tude toward school.
Outside activities include
sports of all kinds, especially
golf and basketball and "fast

Mr. Locky believes there
should be more progress in the
smaller communities. He
would like to see a medical
clinic established in Wingham
to entice professionals in the
field. He would also like to see
all administration housed in one
city hall.
Mr. Locky dislikes people
who contribute nothing to this
world. He sums his philosophy
of life and aspiration to this
aim -- "to live every day and
keep fit".
On behalf of the teachers and
students of W.D.H.S. I wish
Mr. Locky success in all future
endeavours and thank him for
his contribution to the world and
especially to W.D.H.S.

In the spotlight this week we
present Mr. Locky.
Mr. Locky was born and rais-
ed in Guelph where he received
his elementary and secondary
education. After completing
high school he attended Ryerson
Polytechnical Institute, and
studied Architectural Technol-
ogy (and women?). The next
eight years were spent gaining
experience in the architectural
field at the University of
Guelph.
Wingham District High
School provided his first teach-
ing position and he is now en-
joying his third year. Mr. Loc-
ky teaches basic and higher lev-
els of drafting to grades 9, 10,
11 and 12.
He likes to work with peo-
ple and enjoys public relations.
He gives these reasons for
choosing a teaching career, as
well as the challenge involved.
Mr. Locky states emphatical-
ly that W.D.H.S. has an excel-

On Wednesday, February 22,
Wingham District High School
was in a dilemma. The rea-
son; the prefects spent the day
in Toronto.
Mr. and Mrs. Anderson and
Mr. and Mrs. Rowe accomp-
anied the group of thirty-one
prefects to Gilbert and Sulli-
van's "Mikado" at O'Keefe
Centre.
This two-act play combined
opera and comedy in convey-
ing the story of confusion in the
Japanese town of Titipu.There
was much excitement in the
play, including love suits,
threatened suicides and near
executions, in connection with
the disappearance, disguise,
and reappearance of the Mika-
do's son.
So that no one would lose
his touch, the group of prefects
divided into sub-groups and
patrolled the aisles to check
that no one ate candy during
the performance.
At Yorkdale Plaza, eating
and browsing accounted for the
rest of the time spent in Toron-
to.
The prefects enjoyed the
whole day, thanks to Mr. Rowe,
the bus-driver; Mr. Anderson,
the organizer; and the school
board, the financer.

Stratford Northwestern came
to Wingham to finish off the
regular season's play. The sen-
ior game was won by Stratford
47-38. It was a close game for
awhile but Stratford scored ten
quick points and Wingham nev-
er sufficiently recovered. Tem-
pers were hot throughout the
game as the Wingham seniors
really wanted to win.
The Juniors went into the
game needing a win to get a
play-off spot. It was a very
exciting game and with less
than a minute to go the score
was,tied 35-35. Bill Skinn had
a good game and finished with
six points in that last minute to
win the game 41-35.
The Juniors then had to face
Central Huron from Clinton.
These two teams had tied for
fourth place and had to playoff
to see who would journey to
Stratford for the playoffs, Our
boys played a very good game,
rarely letting Clinton get ahead
and they came out on top 39-
35,
This is the first junior team to
reach the playoffs since 1955.
The school wishes the best of
luck to the Juniors as they play
Stratford Central in Stratford on
Saturday.

Mrs. Tiffin was born in the
city of Toronto where she at-
tended elementary school as
well as secondary school. After
completion of grade XIII, she
was accepted into Victoria Col-
lege at the University of Toron-
to where she took an Honours
English Course.
Since childhood, Mrs. Tif-
fin had planned exclusively to
make teaching her profession
and perhaps this endeavour had
been inspired when she had been
given her first pair of roller
skates by a school teacher.
Mrs. Tiffin, then Miss Boe,
came to Wingham High School
where she taught for four years
prior to her marriage. 'At this
time she resigned her teaching
profession to become a home-
maker and mother, but after 11
years absencebecame a supply
teacher as well. For the past four
years she has taught more steadily
at Wingham District High School.
At the present time she teaches
55% of the time, in grade XII
and XIII English. She is also a
guidance counsellor.
Mrs. Tiffin likes the new six-
day cycle at the school and
feels it is better for the teach-
ers as well as the students, be-
cause there is a course for what-
ever field the student desires to
enter.
Mrs. Tiffin has been super-
intendent of C.G.I.T. for over
20 years. She is past president
of the Huron Presbytery O.C.W.
and is still on the executive.
She is also very active in num-
erous church activities. She is
an ardent outdoor enthusiast,
enjoys swimming and skating.
Her main interest is child-
ren and teenagers; she appreci-
ates "all out efforts"„ and can-
not understand how anyone can
be bored in this world. She
