The Wingham Advance-Times, 1969-01-30, Page 2• Winghani Advance - Thursday, Jan. 80, 1$O@ 1 ITIS Show BIZannual An outstanding annual event was presented on the CBC Tele- vision network last Thursday evening; when the 90 -minute Bob Hope Christmas Special was televised in color. This year, it was extended from its normal 60 minutes,, and the ' sponsor, Chrysler Corporation, generously contributed its com- mercial time so as much as 'possible of the show could be seen. • The show receives extreme- ly high ratings in the U.S. , no doubt because moms, wives, sweethearts, aunts and sisters want to see if the soldier of 'their lives happens to be in the crowd. It matters not a bit that the show is televised long after Christmas .is over; we all know • this is Christmas for the boys over there, and we• have come to wait with them for the final "Silent Night" that closes each of the. Hope shows. This year, Bob's group trav- elled 26.000 miles, each giv- ing up his own Christmas to bring a smile to some lonely soldier. They played in Japan, Korea, ' Thailand,. Vietnam and Guam. Seventy-seven people were in the group. 0--0--0 The top stars of 1968 have been . named; by this we mean • Don't slip up on accident liability 'fees! ,You: _can't afford 'not' to have ability insurance!. .Accidents do hap .pen . but you don't have to pay for them.

All are also bound to be 'Oscar' `competitors in their classes. Miss .Woodward's competitors' are apt to be Mia Farrow in "Rosemary's Baby"; Barbra Streisand in "Funny Girl";' Pa- tricia Neal in "The Subject was. Roses"; and Katherine Hepburn in 'Lion in Winter'. Miss Neal will be the sentimental favour- ite, but Hepburn may repeat last year's win and take it again. With Alan Arkin, are likely to be Peter O'Toole for 'lion in Winter'; and probably mentioned will be Jack Lem - mon and Walter Matthau from "The Odd ,Couple' ; Tony Curt- is in "The Boston Strangler" and Daniel Massey for .his work in "Star".

The -lounge is still a mystery for desks still occupy the room though prornise of occupation was made for after the - new year. , For me, I obtained a. lot of . .insight into the true nature and characteristics of both students and advisory staff of thisschool. This term of service already looks full of new and better ideas. People are settling down to a brand new school this year, but don't get too comfortable and don't take things on a sur- face look. Probe, ask and criticize situations or ideas_ P t that draw your interest. Are you concerned about the ,extra too weeks in June? Why not dosomething about. it? Do you want a trial run of allowing smoking% in the students' lounge? W1], you participate in a snOw carnival? What about more enthusiasm at - wrestling and basketball ,matches?' --after' all, this looks like the, first year in a long ;ime that we trulyhave a championship team. Participation is the keyword.

Jlliz 1 h � ��.r�1F �' ",�-� � kn � •- d• of the university co-op .programme BY CATHY WENGER • Since our return from Christ- mas holidays, the school has been graced with the presence .of Miss Garvey, co-op math teacher,: the University of Waterloo. She received her elementary and secondary school education in her home ,town, Barrie. From there she went to Waterloo where she is in her second year of an Honor Math course. Since this is the .first time our school has hosted a co -op - teacher, many of the students aren't aquainted with the pro- gramme. Miss Garvey clued me in to the basic principles and background of such -a course. It is based on a continual four-month rotary system of schooling, ,and work. After an interva'of four months at, the university, the "students go out and work for four 'months to gain practical experience in the field in which they plan to work .after graduation. This continues until they' graduate., This is the first full yearof the co-op math teaching option at Waterloo. It is hoped that the grads will not have to attend 04.E. after graduation since they have already had teaching experience. The idea was initiated last year with experimental groups being sent to Scarborough and North York. Since it was suc- cessful, the university was able to sponsor its first full class in the programme this year. It has 45 to 50 students. It will take Miss Garvey five years to obtain.a four year Hon- ors degree. At the end of that time she will have acquired 16 months' teaching experience. This points out one of the dis- advantages of a co-op plan -- the extra time'required to take the course. Another is that if the student prefers to, enroll in • a co-op plan, the•number of courses available to him is im- mediately decreased. Miss Garvey admitted the necessity of. examinations at the end of ' each four month school term is a hardship that is not encount- ered in different courses at the university. Members of the - co-op plan find it difficult to leave all their newly squired friends after the short sch oo 1 term. However, the course does have its advantages. '"The stu- dents are able to earn money while gaining teaching expert ience. 'This experience will obviously be a valuable asset 'when they apply -for their first jobs. Many high school students are indecisive about future plans after grade l iirteen. 'They, are convinced by others around them that it's close to impossible to pass first year university. Since this is a common subject with many of us, I asked Miss.Garvey for her the ies; She was ex- ` tremely optimistic about anSr student's chances in university --provided he is willing to take the first step to help himself. .She said too many of us have the wrong idea. We've been _ - told that we have to learn to get along. on our own; be- • cause inuniversity no one cares whether' we pass or fail. ' This isn't true. Admittedly the stu- dent must have the initiative to help himself, but he must get over the ,fear that -the pro fessors are unapproachable "gods". Surprisingly enough,. they do care and they wi11'help you, if you take the trouble *to seek them out and ask about your problems. At least this was the ' situation as Miss Garvey found it at Waterloo. She point- ed out that four bur of five of MISS GARVEY her math classes had tutorials • available, composed olgrads who were willing to help the students. • Miss Garvey said ,university calls for more self-reliance than high' school, but we should not 'be -discouraged by this. We can make itif we are 'willing to make -an effort. , , and that • does not mean all work' and no fun. There is still plenty of . time foryour own interests. Duties .at Wingham school? Miss Garvey has enough work to keep her hopping. Primarily, she is to be of general assist- ance to all members of 'the -math department. She' is avail- able to tutor students at any time. She will be supervising some classes and tests and will gradually begin to teach her own lessons. Added to this,. she is involved • in both junior and senior math contests; - Miss Garvey Showed quite a lot of enthusiasm when I quiz- zed her about her impressions of our school. She is pleased with the friendly atmosphere and added that both students and staff are "really great". Since her course keeps her in close contact with high schools, - I asked what she thought of the changes they have undergone in the past few years.. She was pleased that students are being ' granted more freedom, She even noticed, changes in the classroom since her secondary school days, which incidental- ly, weren't too long ago. Now we are given time to Work do our own, during which we are permitted to discuss problems among ourselves. A few years ago rigid classroom discipline forbade soah a.prac- tice. Miss Garvey thought that the Hall -Dennis report prom- ises further advarl`ces in the ed- ucational system. The student lounge made quite an i nipres- -sign -on her also.. She stressed the importance of the students having a place to relax, free .from teachers' supervision: , Right now her main'objec- tive is to pass and to go on to , teach high school math. How- ever, she does hope to- spend a year in Europe, working her way around. I'm sure with her enthusi- asm she will be a success, no matter what she does. r a ig rd �qur e sc WAS 18-15 o r .
