Looking up
py John Deneau
Ragged purple sweaters were pulled out
of closets and beanies, ribbons and buttons
abounded as Madill celebrated Purple and
White Day last Thursday. This school really
does have spirit! One guy, Craig Gilroy,
went so far as to put on a pair ot white socks.
He said that it look him a half-hour to find
them in his drawer.
Classes were on a short period schedule
for highly anticipated games between Wing -
ham and Goderich football teams. Prompted
in part by a warning that short -period
scheduled days would be discontinued if
game attendance was not up, Madill stu-
dents appeared in almost full force for the
game.
The cheerleaders were reinforced by a
squad of rather oddly -attired Madill fans
who succeeded in arousing some first-class
cheering. Over on the bench, some of the
players were somewhat puzzled when cheers
arose after a Goderich player was tackled
after a twenty -yard run. But as someone
said, "don't 'knock it; it's a lot better than
nothing from over there."
It was genuinely encouraging to see Ma-
dill students as they were last Thursday.
Things are looking up for Madill; they really
*are!

Cross-country
teams strong
at London
By Doug Thomson 13C
On Tuesday, October 3, F. E.
Madill cross-country team
travelled to London to take part,
with 21 other schools in a cross-
country meet'.
Our Senior team ran a superb
race and won their division with
only 27 points, the sum of the first
four placings of the team. Phil
Beard was 5th, Paul Heffer was
6th, Paul Moffat was 7th and Jim
Dore was 9th.
The girls team finished llth
and the midget boys were also
llth. The junior boys were 9th.
Mr. Hunter and these athletes
deserve a lot of support because
they are involved in one of the
most demanding sports our
school offers.

After interviewing Miss Md,.
Ivor we have found her to be a
very interesting. and widely
travelled person.
She was born in Detroit, and
when she was small, she and her
family moved to a farm outside of
Aylmer, Ont. She attended a
small country school house and
later graduated from Aylnier
High School: She then went to
work for the airlines in Detroit
where she was able to travel over
the United States, Hawaii, Eur-
ope and Mexico.
The "Tug of Canada" brought
her back to Toronto where she
worked as a secretary in a public
school. At this time She thought
of teaching because she wanted
more responsibility and to do
more of her own planning. So, she
attended York University. and up
until now has obtained eight
courses. She is planning to con-
tinue in the forthcoming sum -
piers to complete degree studies.
After moving from Lion's Head
where she taught for two years,
she finds people of Wingham and
the surrounding area very friend-
ly and the students quite easy to
teach and get to know. She teach-
es first and second ear typing as
well as first yea office pro-
cedures.
She really enjoys the outdoors
and spends as much time as
possible horseback riding, trail
biking and badminton. She also
likes rug -hooking, movies and
reading, but only when the
weather does not permit her to
participate in outdoor activitieS.

Try, try, again.,
By Barb Stanley
On Thursday, F. E:* Madill
Girls' Basketball teams travelled
to Listowel. The juniors got off to
a god start and by half time they
were leading. In the third guar -
ter, something happened! I don't
know whether it had anything to
do. with that unlucky number 13
or not The final score was 23-13
in Listowel's favour.
The seniors got off to a terrific
start with a number of long shots -
going into the basket. At half time
the girls had a fairly good lead,
but again in the third quarter
something happened. The seniors
did manage to get by 13, so they
don't have that for an excuse. The
final score was 33-19 for Listowel.
The next game is at Wingham
on Wednesday, October 11. Let's
all come out and cheer the girls
on to victory, when they give it
another try.
We receive
guidance
By Daphne Nabrotzky
At F. E. Madill the students are
divided into 95 groups with 15 to
16 in each group. This is the first
year that Madill has tried this
method and is very satisfied with
the results. This way the group
can get to know people of their
own age and discuss problems,
common interests, dislikes, likes
and their feelings and opinions to
one another. In the last few years
we had class guidance, where in-
stead of a regular period we had a
counselorcome in for a guidance
session.
YkoPas is, the_head guidance
director. After these class guid-
ance sessions, each had, an indi-
vidual interview. We feel that this
• year, with the group guidance the
. students Will be able to give their
opinions more freely.
The grade 9 students had Paul
Kieffer join in to explain to° them
problems or questions they might
have had about the Students'
Council and Oliibs, Many very
"interesting topic were dis-
cussed. •
Our students enjoy getting
counsel and guidance and Madill
• is concerned and likes giving it.

Students' Council report
• By Daphne Nabrotzky
On October 4th the. Students"
Council and class representatives
met in the student 'lounge for a
full council meeting.
Discussed, and finalized were
the plans for the grade 9 banquet
which is to be held October 20th.
All grade 9's are urged to attend.
We also had some money bilis
passed by Donna Greer and mo-
tions made pertaining to the club
budgeting Osten). No club will
have its own bank aceOtmt• but
will be given a figure and the sum 0
spent will later have ,to balancein
the'club's record book.
We would like to ask that
cashiers of local businesses make
sure that.you give the student or
teacher a bill or receipt for arti-
cles purchased in your store for
club use. This will avoid a lot of
complications which might arise.
The Students' Council is work-
ing overtime in trying to make.
this 1972 year a success at F. E.
Madill Secondary School.
