MUSIC POLL IN WINGHAM As the result of a request by Wingham trustee Jack Alex- ander, a poll will'be °taken of par- ents of senior elementary stu- dents in the Wingham area and the first three grades at F. E. Madill Secondary School regard- ing a music program. Director John. Cochrane said a similar poll in 1972 showed only four students were interested in music as a credit course at that time. Alexander said a lot of Wing - 'ham parents were concerned that their children were going to a high school without a music pro - grain. When one member suggested the program could be started as extra -curricular, Cochrane com- mented, "That's how it started in Goderich. First as extra -curri- cular and then as a credit." Cochrane•also cautioned, "As a credit course therearea lot of academics involved. Music is much more than just playing an instrument." Superintendent J. W. Coulter commented, "There may be a lot of interest, but what subject does a student drop to make room for music?" APPROVE THEATRE ARTS Theatre Arts will be introduced , at South" Huron District High School at the grade 13 level in September, 1975. It is understood that if the proposed course of study is approved by. the Ministry of Education it will gtialify as a grade 13 credit. Otherwise, it will be offered as an interest course only. The theatre arts program was outlined by Mrs. Pat Quigley of the South Huron staff. TO TOUR SCHOOLS After a suggestion by Trustee R. J. Elliott, the board instructed Director John Cochrane to ar- range a tour of all Huron schools by the trustees. Vice-chairman Herb Turkheim suggested the tour be broken into four sections covering the areas administered by the four super- intendents. He added, "1 have been on the board for three years and there are many schools I haven't seen." Cochrane replied to this, "Under new provincial legisla- tion, board. members may visit schools at any time they wish." us de is id ey he in to ill nd is ut 00 le eed on French students to Quebec City late in May will expose students to the everyday aspect of French life. Superintendent Bob Allan said this exchange originated with the Huron board and French teachers a few years ago. WRESTLING MAT The board gave approval for the purchase of a large wrestling mat for use at South Huron High School in Exeter. More than $3,500 of the $5,000 purchase price is being provided by the newly - organized South Huron wrestling gymnastics and judo groups. APPROVE FIELD TRIPS A total of 11 field trips were ap- proved for students of vario schools in the county. The only trip drawing any com- ment was one planned for gra eight students at Zurich publ school. Herb Turkheim, Zurich's representative on the board. sa several parents told him th thought overnight trips at t secondary level were enough. Superintendent Bob Allan explaining the two-day trip Toronto said, "The students w be housed at York University a will study geography, science, history and citizenship. This not a precedent for the board, b it is for the community of Zur- ich." Turkheim continued, "The stu- dents worked hard to raise $3 for the project. It's a worthwh't venture, but a little different for our community." Chairman Wilfred Shortr commented, "Everyone going the trip needs parental ap- proval." A five day trip for South Huron District High School senior r PETER POULIN, 2, took a bird's eye view of the world when he investigated an empty coop and was intrigued by the pattern of the cage. About 30 youngsters enjoyed a free for-alltour of the Sleepy Hollow Rabbitry last Thursday. JOHN LANGRIDGE, manager of•CKNX-radio, accepts a "Commissioner's Citation" from OPP Commissioner H. H.
