Clinton News-Record, 1977-03-10, Page 15PAGE 14--CLINTON NEWS -RECORD, THURSDAY, MARCH 10, 1977 *Rai's= misam central huron chronicle lorrie york, editor secondary school news CHSS sports round up Sports Basketball In their last game of' the season, the Senior 'Redmen beat the St. Mary s team 64 38, however our Junior team was defeated by score of 54-30. Editorial We are lucky to attend CHSS by Deb Elliott, secretory Students' Council "Go! Yeah! Let's go! Good .,.shot! Nice play ! ! " This in- telligent dialogue can be heard in the gymnasium of CHSS any day one from 11:07 a.m. to 11:51 a.m. The scene is a group' of teenagers happily engaged in a game of volleyball. while an even larger group of students look on, shouting (usually) en- couragement. In the cafeteria, dozens of kids chatter noisily, finding out about each other's love life, school marks, hobbies, etc. In different rooms throughout the school, smaller groups of students busily discuss such things as drama, debating, gym- nastics, newspaper, year- book, formal arrangements, prefects, students' council — the List is endless! In the library, the more studious students slave loyally over Biology, Chemistry, Shorthand, Math, English, History and Spanish. There are so many things to get involved in at CHSS, that there are never enough minutes in a day. Also, it is not just the students who are involved. Just the other day, I went searching for teacher supervision for an upcoming dance and I had no problem getting the required number. I feel that I am lucky to go to CHSS. I am proud to say, "I am from , Clinton High School". I think the students, staff, and administration in this school are super. We never have a problem getting good turnouts for our dances. Our Walk-a-Thon was a tremendous success, not only because of student and teachers participation, but also because of community - involvement. Without your support, there could not have been a Walk-a- Thon! The Drama Club did a terrific job of presenting "Dirty Work at the Crossroads". Our school .teams spend countless hours practicing in order to represent CHSS to the best of their ability. Our school band and choir are doing things we've never imagined in previous years. Our principal has been super 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 co-operative and helpful in every way. Our students' council is blessed again this year with having a concerned and involved staff advisor. Although our first attempt at 'the House system failed, our second try has proven suc- cessful. We have to School Shop which sells everything from shirts to nuts. Our cafeteria serves hot meals every day for a reasonable price. We are well on our way to getting tennis courts. Our Athletic. Association ` has made available school sweaters which have been a great success. The year, thus far, has been a great success. Although this year is not over by a long shot, reflecting on things that have already happened, has given me a good feeling inside. I feel honoured to be part of CHSS. I am proud of what we, students and teachers alike, have accomplished. Who am I? SOTW I am a Grade 10 student at CHSS and I have been on the Student Council for the past two years and I am on the dance committee.. I am also a member of the Greenhouse Club. When I am not at school I am working at Buffy's Burgers in Clinton. I am known for going to the area race tracks in the summer cheering Ozark Chief to victory. I am also known for creating a disturbance in Mr. Smith's French and Latin classes. My future plans are to complete Gr. 13 and go to University to study Law or Music. . The student of the week last week was Adrienne Wood, Grade 12. This week at CRSS There was shooting in the cafeteria in the last. two weeks. The shooting of club pictures that is. The pictures, taken under the direction of Mr. Hunt, were taken during certain school days in the first, second and third periods. There is a long list of clubs to be put in the yearbook, and taking all the pictures was no easy task. A tip of the hat goes to Mr. Hunt and his group of interested photographers. + + -I- We We have not unravelled the mystery of the "Family Pack", whatever it is. Let's hope we find out soon, because a lot of people are going crazy trying to figure out what it is. + ++ Unexpected events caused some students to almost freeze to death one day as the fire bell rang. Some "en- terprising" students hap- pened to be near a fire bell box and after some playing around with it, all broke loose! It seems that not everybody obeyed the call, especially in the cafeteria. A notice to all students clear the school when the bell • Mike Thompson, was the high scorer of this•game with 10 points. Also defeated, the Midget boys' score was 39-19. These games were held on Monday, February 28. Cross Country Skiing On Saturday February 26, six people from CHSS com- peted in a race at the Bruce county forest, north of Wingham. Heinz Hoernig (a CHSS faculty, member) placed 2nd in his category with a time of 9 minutes. Doug Ludwig (also a teacher at CHSS) placed fourth in his - category with a time of 18:35. In the high school boy's category, George Collins was first with a time of 17:28, while Jeff Hearn placed second (in 18:35). Mark Baker was fourth (20:12) and brother Chris Baker was sixth (22:20) Volleyball On Thursday February. 24, the senior girls' volleyball team travelled to St. Mary s to participate in the HuronbPerth competition held there. The girls finished in third place behind Stratford Central and St. Mary s. + + + The boy s. basketball teams would like to thank Mr. Reidy, Mr. Howard and Mr. Clynick for their coaching and support driving this year's basketball season. Thanks are also extended to Mrs. Reed and Miss Burch By r,. the volleyball teams for their ~- coaching and help during the season. Tramp champs Last Thursday, the students of CHSS were treated to a fantastic show! The Tramp champs thrilled us all with their finesse and daring acts on the tram- poline. _ The —Champs" are no strangers to C1 -&SS ; they have appeared here numerous times before. This year, as in years before, we all enjoyed the Tramp Champ's lively show. rings; it may be a fire. Also, last 'Thursday, March 3rd, a fire broke out in a radiator near a Technical classroom. It appears . to have been caused by a buildup of gar- bage. The firebell did not ring for this occasion, but it did present some serious problems. The fire would have spread through flam- mable wood, and materials in the shops and towards the rest of the school if it were not -stopped soon enough. + + -I- A A very happy birthday to the principal of CHSS! Mr. Homuth celebrated his 39th birthday on March the 5th. A special surprise assembly was held.on March 4th, when the band played Happy Birthday and a large cake was presented. A few gifts were thrown in also. So, from the Chronicle, best wishes Mr. Homuth.

Survey reveals students' thoughts This survey was conducted by Cheryl Flynn, a " Man In Society 300" student. The results are both enlightening and informative. Are you satisfied with educational syst,em here at Central Huron Secondary School? 42 percent Yes, 58 percent no; Do you think that a "come and go as you like" system Just ask Annie! Dear Annie: I have this terrible problem. One of my friends likes this weirdo. Personally I can't stand the person. The kid doesn't have any other friends and always sits alone at lunch. She hangs around us all the time and has her locker near my friend's, so when my friend and I meet somewhere she usually tags along. What can I do!? She already knows that I hate her but she still comes. What can I do to get rid of her? She is driving me, crazy! Almost Bananas Dear Bananas: , If your friend is aware that this "weirdo" is chipping away at your sanity, then she must like the person enough to allow you to climb the walls indefinitely --in which case you have no right to get rid of her, let alone degrade her to such an extent. If she repels you like you say she does, keep your distance from her, until such time as your friend and yourself see eye -to -eye on your opinions of her. +++ Dear Annie: There is this friend of ours, who, every time a guy looks at her, thinks that he's'madly in love with her. We try to tell her that they are just stan- ding there watching the world go by, but she does not believe us, She has been madly in love with ten guys she has just met by sight and not talked to. We are getting sick of her always taking a fit every time some guy looks at her. We hope you can give us some advice as to what to do about her. Desperate and Sick of Her Dear Desperate: Sure are a lot of desperate people around these days•! But desperate problems call for desperate measures. You've got to beat her at her own game. Why just ten guys? There are hundreds in Central Huron alone. Why, if there are two or three of you, you could each be in the little black books of at least a hundred guys. And why stop there? There are a good solid billion human males on this rock (a few are married, but what do you care?), and you can add any relatively small, green, antennaed aliem chaps who drop in oc- happen to casionally. Fun, Eh? See you in the looney bin. would work in our school? 20 percent yes, 80 percent no. Da you think that this participaction period on Day 1 is a good idea? 88 percent yes, 12 percent no. Do you think admit slips - are a good idea for the people who can't make it to class on time? 46 percent yes, 54 percent no. Do you know of any teachers that discriminate against any of the students in any way? 68 percent yes, 32 percent no. Do you think the students should be allowed to go up town in the time set aside by the school for the extra curricular activities? 60 percent yes, 40 percent no. Do you think it's right for the students who are too lazy to study to blame their low marks on the teacher? 0 percent yes, 100 percent no. Do you think that the students should have to pay to get out of school for every outside activity even after paying your five dollar student fee in September? 20 percent yes, 80 percent no. Thanks are due to Cheryl, for bringing the results of this survey to the Chronicle. We like to hear what our readers think about matters con- cerning us all!

CLINTON . A catalogue store shipped 'us a completely different Bridge set than the one I ordered, and because of a clause in the order form they. insist that have to accept delivery. The clause reads, "We reserve the right to ship goods not corresponding with those described." I think this is just a legal gyp, but what can I do? Under Ontario's Sale of Goods Act, implied in every contract of sale is a condition which states that, goods SHALL CORRESPOND with their description, when they are bought by description, therefore the term on your signed order is of no effect. Return the goods and you'll get back your money; because you are NOT obliged to pay for different merchandise than what you ordered. Clinton Community Credit Union NOTICE TO ALL U.W.O.

Good Dividends Convenient office hours 482- 3.467 • 70 Ontario ' Street . I gave a stor, a cheque fora painting and was told that the frame would be made for it within a few days; however I changed my mind and stopped payment on the cheque. The man in the store now threatens to sue me unless I issue him a new cheque. Can 0 he do this? The rule in law is that property in goods passes when parties intend to pass. It is not necessary for possession to pass for a change of ownership to. occur. Where there is no clear intention, and where the sale is of some specific article, then the property passes when the contract is made, regardless of when payment or delivery takes place. It follows then, that you are the owner of the painting, and are obliged to pay for it. & Son Tj Pryde .std.._ District Representative 1 Don Denomme 75 HAMILTON GODERICH MONUMENTS MARKERS LETTERING 524- 2373 or 6_621 %iv appointments _anytime We heard about a big carpet sale on the radio and before we knew it a smooth talking salesman -had appeared at our house and left with a 550 depositfrom us. Then I took suddenly very ill and can't work so now we just can't afford this carpet. My husband has phoned on several occasions but has been unable to get hold of the manager. He has also left our name and number for him to return our call, but so far, silence! Is there any way you can help? It seems that the store manager was on vacation and knew nothing about your case; however he has agreed to cancel your contract less your deposit, which has already been paid to your, "smooth talking salesman." 1O • • 9 Ball & Mutch LTD. .°11111.
