GREAT FUN — Being blindfolded and then feeding ice cream to a partner can
be messy, but fun, as these four students display during the welcome week stag-
ed for grade nine students at South Huron this week.

Finds publicity excessive
Dear Sir:
This poem is my protest
against the publicity given to
the "Rhinoceros Party
Leadership Convention" in
Ailsa Craig and their beer
breaks. I feel excessive
publicity was provided by the
London Free Press, CFPL
T.V. and Kitchener T.V.
stations.
I feel this publicity was un-
fair to the majority of the peo-
ple of Ailsa Craig and district
who had no involvement in
that spectacle.
This little poem is a
'retort"
From the silent majority who
support
Doug and Dave and Turtle
Races too
Though we don't act like we
belong in a zoo
To Ailsa Craig the "Rhinos"
roam
A certain hall to call their
home
Their watering spot where
they could wallow
To drink all the beer that they
could swallow.
And those of us who
encourage our youths
In sports and church and

Want the surrounding world
to face
That Ailsa Craig is a great

The committee who work so
hard and long
To make Gala Days and
Turtle racing fun
Deserve all the praise from
the press and T.V.
Forget the "Rhinos", they're
silly you see.
Give us some nice words for
our town
Please don't keep on running
us down
Don't judge so many by just
a few
For "Craig" is filled with
good folk too.
Sincerely

improvements in livestock to
further development of the
agricultural industry. These
objectives have been met."
MacDonald added, "Ad-
vancements in research are
ably demonstrated at fall
fairs, giving town and country
residents alike the opportuni-
ty to see changes which take
place in agriculture
