We spent our first night at Expo in LaRonde, the amuse- ment park. My fellow travel- lers had these comments about the rides: "The Gyrotron is really great. It takes you to another world." " Oh -- try the Flume. You just feel like an early explorer shooting the ra- pids." "The cable cars are wonderful to get a good view from up-top Expo." And for those who like helicopters -- a trip costs just $2.00. If you do not want to spend money here, looking at the rides is an ex- perience and it's free. High school students return from Expo es, Thursday, June 8, 190 Page 11 We all made liberal use of the expo express to travel around the islands lie Ste. Helene, lie Notre Dame, La Ronde and the mainland, Cite du Havre. The first thing a traveller to Expo should do is get on the Express. This way you get a general picture of the grounds, without charge, and you can decide which of the pavilions you definitely want to visit, I might add that my first impressions of Expo at night were just breath-taking, I can find no words to ade- quately express the thrill I felt. This experience I will remem- ber the rest of my life. Bright and early Tuesday morning we arrived at Expo to tour the pavilions. Everyone had told us certain ones to b& sure to see with only two days to do it in. We had heard that by making reservations at an Esso information booth one could get into the pavilions much faster. There are only 8 pavilions you can reserve places at. After one and a half hours' wait we could only reserve places at "Man and His Health", The Labyrinth, one of the most popular buildings, had been out of tickets since 10:30 a,m, I don't want to discourage anyone but if you plan to use these booths, don't waste a lot of time waiting. If you wish to reserve places at one or two, which is the maximum number of pavilions you can reserve, do it. But take the others, as you can. From here on my tale will be my impressions and these are an individual matter. But, many will agree with me when I say that the Telephone Pavilion is the most impressive at Expo. Not from an architect's point of view -- but the film inside, "Canada '67" is terrific. It shows different aspects of Can- adian life and scenes coast to coast. The circular screen and the movie produced by Walt Disney give one the effect of being a part of the action. Every Canadian, including my friends and me felt the thrill greater than ever of being Can- adians. On Ile Ste. Helene we tour- ed only a few more. The mu- sic pavilion is good if you have the time and are interested in music. The Belgium building is very interesting and a quick vTarfrom tartinirail was all we saw of the U.S. Pavilion, Its outside appearance, like a huge clear bubble, is its chief merit. On the mainland, Cite du HaVre, we toured Habitat '67, a modern apartment building which looks like many boxes piled together at different lev- els. It is boldly original. The best theme building, in my opinion, was Man and His Health where we saw a film and live actors illustrating modern Why The Christian Science Monitor recommends you read your local newspaper Your local newspaper is a wide-range newspaper with many features.

The chaperones must certainly be commended for their patience in waiting on, us. At 11 p.m, Tuesday night 7.1 people "aux pieds, tres fa- tigues" left for the Centre, On Wednesday we tried to cover the lie Notre-Dame where most of the pavilions are. Here it is briefly; the U.S.S.R. is very technical but well worth the half hour wait; Thailand and Burma and Ceylon are ex- otic and beautiful and out- standing in this respect; Mexico was most colorful; India (don't miss it), I ate in the restaurant there - tandorii chicken and nan (Indian bread), a real ex- perience; Australia is very dif- ferent and restful!; Germany's best point is the architecture; Italy has exquisite fashions; Great Britain is solid, stately and grand, outside and inside is simply wonderful. This is one to visit for sure; France is best from the outside; Czechoslo- vakia is one of the best pavil- ions to see; Jamaica and Bar- bados present the atmosphere of the country. Here, amidst parrots we enjoyed grenadine and soda (a non-alcoholic Jam- aican drink); Canada may ap- pear flimsy by comparison but the revolving theatre and view from the top are particularly worth-while. One gets the feel- ing that Canada is a young land without a long impressive past but with a glorious future. Space does not permit me to say more about the pavilions but those I mentioned ,were the highlights for me. A little advice for the future travellers to Expo: wait to see a few of the big pavilions and then go to the smaller ones that you can walk through. They are very worthwhile. contrary to some opinions, Expo is not a money grabbing place. Once you have paid for your lodgings the rest is free. You can pay what you want for your meals. The pavilions are free and so is the Expo Express. However the cost of souvenirs is grossly in- flated. My article wouldn't be com- plete without thanking our chap- erones: Miss Hoople, Mrs, Ball, Mr., Bender, Mr. Monroe, Mr. Locke, Mr. VanDongen and particularly Mr. and Mrs. Tay- lor, Their kindness and help- fulness in the midst of tension and chaos, like on the subway with 71 people and luggage, was wonderful. Now as we are sitting on the train travelling home in the rain, I think, "Oh just one more day and I could see But then my feet might not hold out!" I know I speak for all 71 when I say that we'll always re- member our trip to Expo. This sounds weak but it comes from our hearts. It was like a world tour. Thank you Mr. Madill, the school board, the bus driv- ers and the chaperones for mak- ing this possible.
