The West German Government and the large German corporation Krauss -Maffei AG of Munich were both committed to spend large sums of money on research of the train which .would .then be picked up by Ontario, according to Ontario's agreement with 'the company. The Minister of Transportation and Communications, John Rhodes, subsequently announced cancellation of the $25 million transit test project started on the Canadian National Ekhibition grounds. ' The government now has to de- cide whether to risk millions of dollars to build their transit vis- ion.

Ontario .has been refunded $8.5 million by Krauss -Maffei toward money On- tario has *spent at the CNE test track. . - Liberal Leader, Robert Nixon called on the Government ' to abandon the whole project "and save our taxpayers an astro- nomical amount of money".

Lynda Lyons Jane Shiell Brenda Johnston What was your reaction to the absence of a Remembrance Day service at school? 0-0-0 Dan Newton 13C: "1 wag very disappointed with the absence of a Remembrance Day service be- cause I believe that this further shows the increasing disrespect for those who gave the supreme sacrifice, so that we could live freely." 0-0-0 Judy Nicholson 12H: "I think Remembrance Day has lost the significance that it once had. I don't really miss it." 0-0-0 Rod Renwick 12N1 "I think we should have had a Remembrance Day ceremony because of all the people that went to war." 0-0-0 Robert Bregman 12A: "I think there should have been one be- cause we have always had one before." 0-0-0 Dale Lougheed 12D: "I never missed it." 0-0-0 Marj Powell 12N: "I think the school administration made the right decision, considering that Monday was a holiday, and hav- ing it on Friday would have been too early." 0-0-0 Michael Heim IIC: "Well, it does not have any significance to me since my parents are Euro- pean!' b--0-0 Murray Carter 13A: "I thought it was in bad taste because, even though none of us are old enough to remember the war, we are al - `'ways being told to remember. How can we remember without a service?" Student teachers R. Cardy Mr. Cardy teaches geography at our school.

Cornelia Stangen 1111 Louise Stamper MI four Huron sites open for International Four possible sites for the 1978 International plowing Match, which is to be held in Huron County, are presently under con- sideration. Two are located in the southern part of the county, one is in McKillop Township and the fourth is in the Wingham area. The Lands Committee of the Ontario Plowmen's Association will examine each of the sites' and submit its report on costing, chiefly as costs would be affected by hydro and telephone require- ments. Final decision will be made by the executive of the OPA after that group has assessed each of the sites, taking into con- sideration location and calibre of neighboring farms, access roads, possible parking areas, etc. Already service clubs, muni- cipal councils and other such publicly -oriented groups are strongly backing the 'Wingham area site, since the International has never been held in this area. The .International is, of course such a large scale event that planning well in advance is a necessity.
