"In your opinion, do you feel
that it is worthwhile to sell choco-
late bars for the Students'
Council?"
0-0-0
Genevieve Kinahan 13B: I feel
that this idea is good, but that it
could be improved. The selling of
chocolate bars has been going on
too long. Car washes, window
washing for merchants etc
would be a benefit for both the
outside people as well as the stu-
dent body and would accomplish
the same thing.
0-4-0
Marion Johnstone 13B: I feel that
it is worthwhile if everyone would
do their part in selling at least six
chocolate bars.
0-0-0
DEBBIE DEMARAY 12B: Yes!
Why not? I think it's a worthwhile
project but I wish some students
would take a better outlook on it
and get out and sell bars with a.
more interested attitude. To sell
only six bars doesn't take too
much effort?
o—o--o
Danny White IOR: Yes, If they
make money.
000
Lents Miller 12F: Yes, because
it shows student participation in
the school.
o—o—o
Doreen Anderson IIA: Yes,
because they usually make quite
a bit of money out of it and no one
minds doing it and some even like
it.
0-0-0
Sheldon Jones 9E: Yes, I do,
because it makes money and
keeps the students involved.
0-0-0
Martha Graham 10C: I think they
make a lot of money and they
have to make it some how.
00-0
Clint Petteplace 9R: Yes,
• because they can make Money
for the activities in the sehool, to
make them work.
Robert Kle'mld°n t" t'3'A : Yes,
because it gets more people in-
terested in school activities and it
raises a bit of. money.
Blood clinic
On Monday, April 14th, an open'
blood donor clinic was held at F.
E. Madill S.S. between the hours
of 12:30 to 3:30 and 5:30 to 8:00
p.m. A large number Of students
froin the school and other, people
in the community took the time to
support the Red Cross Clinic. The
numerous donations of blood re-
flects the interest of many mem-
bers of this community in keep-
ing an abundant supply of a sub-
stance which cannot be manu-
factured . . . blood comes only'
from people. For those of you
unable to attend this clinic, the
next Red • Cross . Blood Donor
clinic will be held in July. Be sure
you are there to give a gift that
will always be greatly ap-
preciated. Won't you ensure that
blood will be on hand to meet any
emergency?
A thought
Recently in a popular Canadian
weekly publication an article,
four or five pages in length, was
published as a result of an over-
whelming response to the phrase
"what really makes arae mad is
..." After reading the article, I
was quite surprised at the num-
ber of utterly riduculous things
people tend to get uptight over.
Noting the popularity of such an
article, we (the co-editors)
agreed to enter a list of things.
that deal with this phrase. These
things also deal specifically with
life at Madill. Although this ar-
ticle may seem discriminating, it
is not intended to offend anyone.
We hope you will regard this ar-
ticle in the same light-hearted
manner we had when we put the:
article together.
What really makes me mad is
—mean teachers with heavy
rulers.
—Mr. Campeau's toupee.
—perspiration -scented socks
airing out in the change -room.
—people who stick bubble gum
to the seats of chairs.
—sitting down in it.
—Mr. Morrison's English
lectures. (guaranteed to put any
man or animal to sleep) .
—Madill Mustangs playing
their best game of the season and
still ending up losing. it.
—Mr. Hunter on stage at Mon-
day morning assemblies.
—11to listen to him.
—ente ' the lounge and find-
ing the only chair that is not par-
tially destroyed is occupied.
—missing :the Friday night
party in downtown Wingham.
—broken shoelaces. -
-borrowing a chisel from the
woodworking shop in order to
convert the cafeteria food into a.
relatively edible and digestable
mixture, but removing any small
slimy crawling bugs first.

HIGH SCHOOL FRIENDS
Walking through the -school
ijike I've done every day,
Past the many moths,
And through the halls of yester-
day.
I remember it well, the friends
that II hung .'round.
What a wonderful time we really
had
Even when things got rough, we
still kept bound.
Oh those memories I still have.
List'ning to the radio,
Hearing old familiar tunes.
My friends and I, we sang
Or danced to those songs that
were well-known.
I wonder how those times just
flew away so fast
Seems like yesterday we all were
so near
But good times, as we know, just
never seem to last
Oh those memories I still have.
Now when school is o'er
And all my friends have gone
their ways,
Oh, can they stlllil 4'eeal
Our highschool times In the
"good of days"?
Even when II'm'old, and living far
away,
Will they remember me as I will
f 1 ears?
ut one thing I'll always be ffor-
ever, Li =Paulfor—
Are those memories I still have.

WOULD YOU RELIEVE IT?
The week of April 14 to April 18
was a fairly busy week at F, E.
Madill. On Monday afternoon, the
Red Cross Blood Clinic was set up
in one of the gymnasiums at F. E.
Madill. Boys, 17 and over, and
girls who were 18 and over had a
chance to donate their blood if
they so. desired. It was a busy
place and there was a good stu-
dent and teacher turnout,
Tuesday began the annual
Chocolate Bar Drive, sponsored
by the Students' Council to raise
money for its school activities
and athletics. As an added incen-
tive, the top seller receives a cash
prize of 100 dollars. With every
half-dozen chocolate bars sold.
the 'student receive .a ticket, A
ticket is .dally *awn, with the 1
winner receiving twenty -dollari.
Tom Lee and e Dean Campbell
were among these last winners.
Sales, so fay', have hem reported
as being good.
Wednesday was the day of the
campaign speeches. We also
received word that the Junlor
Math team placed first in the
Junior Math Contest in ?,one 78.
On Thursday, a badminton
tournament was held at F. E.
Madill with good cqmpetition
from Wingham. Also, the stu-

field trip to Toronto with their
teacher, Mr. Bender. The debat-
ing club from F. E, Madill went to
Clinton. The seniors won both
games, and the Juniors won one
and tied one.
Friday was a relatively quiet
day, but next Friday, April 25, is
our annual Sadie Hawkins°
dance. Girls, this is the chance
that you have been waiting -for all
year. You better hurry before
some other girl asks your favor-
ite guy. The band is MacKenzie

that there will be a good student
turnout.

of the "Reach for the Top" scholastic competition sponsored by CKNX-TV. Jim Pattison,
Marjorie Powell, Trudy Holmes and Allan Dunsmuir defeated the John Dlefenbaker Sec-

It was that time of year again
on Wednesday, Arpil 16, when the
nomination speeches for the new
students' council were held.
President Jim Welwood of the
Students' Council introduced
each nominee and nominator.
Although many of the 'positions
had several nominees, there were
also some positions which were
filled by acclamation. It is a sad
thing that these last positions
were filled by acclamation, but it
is up to the students to decide
what kind of council they -wish to
govern their school for an entire
year.
The most important positions
on the student council are those of
president and vice-president.
There were four teams- rinuitnif

are: Lois McLaughlin and Janet
Cardiff; Gordon Wray and
Donald Sanderson; Murray Keith
and Henry Oleshowski; and
lastly, Joan Johnson and Irene
'Parker. All contestants showed
interest in improving school
spirit.- Upon being elected, the
president will select an assistant
president and vice-president,
secretary and treasurer for the
Executive Council.
The nominees for the Activities
Council are as follows: Karen
Currie for Lounge Manager (by
acclamation) ; Janice Rae and
Debbie Brenzil for Activities
Officers (by acclamation) ; and
lastly, Robin Brent and Mark
Tiffin for Social Convener.
The nominees for the Athletic
Council are as follows: Laurie

FREEDOM IS LIVING
I would like to live as free as a
bird
Soaring, soaring, alone in the
sky.
From yesterday to this moment
Reliving today in our own way
Ending yesterday's hardships
Expressing our personal feelings
Demanding the best from the
way we live
Often curious about the future,
but
Money can't buy our wanting love
But
Life is a handful of mysteries
Isn't it wonderful though
Vizualizing everything in a
special way
Interested in our peer groups, but
Neglecting our parents far too
much
Giving anything or everything to
Keep our freedom
I would like to live as free as a
bird
Soaring, soaring, alone in the
sky.
