Na playoffs for. seniors
By Gary Godkin
On October 16 the Senior Redmen
volleyball team travelled ,to Mitchell for
their'1lifth • tournament of the season. The
Redmen—went into this tournament in fifth
spot, butr showing eliminated them
from a playoff position.
In the first set of two games, CHSS lost to
Stratford's Northwestern Huskies. Despite
Clinton's strong play, Stratford was able to
better CHSS, 16-14 and 15-8.
In the second set, CHSS met the strong
Mitchell team. Again the Redmen were
unable to come out on the winning end. In
the first game a weak net game on Clinton's
part and a strong Mitchell offensive game,
combined for a score of 15-6. Stronger play
for the` Redmen in the second match provid-
ed fora closer game, jut CHSS failed to win,
losing 15-13.
Clanton met the Goderich Vikings in the
last set. The Redmen won the first game 15-
11,. This game was the product of strong.
bumping in the back court.
The second game, however, was a dif-
ferent story. The Vikings took an early lead
which, was too much for CHSS to compete
with. The Vikings won 15-8.
After five regular tournaments, the
Redmen's record stands at eight wins and 16
losses.
On October 23, the Redmen will travel to
Mitchell for their sixth and final tourna-
ment.
Fair showing for juniors
By John Lavis
On October 16. the CHSS Junior Boys
volleyball team competed in a Mitchell tour-
nament.
Their first opponent was the strong Nor-
thwestern team from Stratford. CHSS
defeated them in the first round, but carne
up short in the second game.
CHSS then met Goderich and later Mit-
chell. The results were both splits, leaving
CHSS with a .500 record, three wins and
three losses.
On October 20 the Junior Boys competed
at an invitational tournament in Listowel.
CHSS won six out of 10 games, which put
them in the semi-finals against arch rivals,
Seaforth.
CHSS beat Seaforth in two straight games
and went onto the finals against Listowel.
The Clinton boys, came up on the short end
but finished in second place.
The junior team has one more regular
season tournament and then are hoping to
play in Huron -Perth competition on October
25 in St. Marys.
Universities visit CHSS
By Scott Beane '
On October 18, the annual University In-
formation Program for Huron County was
held at Central Huron Secondary School.
Grades 12 and 13 from all of the high schools
in Huron County were in attendance.
The University Information Program is a
day on which representatives from Ontario
universities gather to tell students about
their respective universities. It is hoped that
the information garnered at this day will
help students choose which university they
wish to attend following their graduation
from highschool.
The program has been run in Huron Coun-
ty for 10 or 12 years now and is totally fund-
ed by the participating universities. During
the afternoon there were two, 40 minute ses-
sions in which students attended informal
lectures on universities of their choice. Ac-
companying the lectures were films, slides
and admission and informational brochures
detailing aspects of campus and academic
life. After these sessions there was an open
session in the auditorium in which students
could take informational pamphlets and
talk to the universities' delegates.
There were 17 universities in attendance
this year, including York, Western,
Waterloo and Guelph among others. The col-
leges were not in attendance this year but
will be visiting the school on Sunday,
November 4, for the Huron County Career
Fair. This fair will run from 1 - 4 p.m. and
parental attendance and input is welcome.
Words from the president
By Terry Davies
Have you ever wondered how the Student
Council goes about bringing in Primo Sports
for school jackets or Jostens for school
rings? I knowsome of you are saying no, but
I'm going to throw it by your way anyway.
• After meeting with the salesmen the Ex-
ecutive Council looks over the information
and the goods which xllmhave„to,. offer.
,
After we have argued and thrown -all the
choices up in the air, it is my job to make the
final decision. The decision is based on the
quality of the merchandise as well as any
special offers made by the companies. For
example, with coat sales, the company we
chose offered no sales tax While Jostens of-
fers an insurance plan.
In the end, the sales tell all. Whether the
decision was a good one or not, the council
learns from experience.
By the way, this year, the coats and rings
sold close to past years' sales, so we must
have done something: right.
While I've got your attention, I thought I
would mention a •few of the upcoming
Vents. There,,,will be , a.. Halloween -Dance,:
during the dayon October 31, and a band has
been okayed by Mr. Wooden for a dance in
January. Also, the last four days of school,
this year, between exams,and the Christmas
holidays, will be "The Four Days of
Christmas". Several Christmas -oriented
events are being planned.

No, these students aren't getting ready for Halloween. They are
part of Stephen Oliver's Grade 11 Theatre Arts class at CHSS. In
order to make mime masks, the students put plaster on their faces
for the molds. In a few weeks they will learn how to paint them pro-
perly. ( Anne Narejko photo

If you know of a "good kid" who deserves
an award for community work, bravery or
striving to overcome a physical limitation,
nominate them for an Ontario Junior Citizen
of the Year award before the end of October.
Bicentennial history books, airline trips
across Canada, a reception with Ontario's
Lieutenant Governor, plaques and lapel pins
are the prizes awaiting Ontario's 1984 Junior
Citizens.
"We are seeking to honor Ontario's
outstanding young people — not just the
superheroes, but also the good all-round
kids who are working today to become our
leaders of tomorrow,” said Dave Wenger of
Mount Forest, Chairman of the Junior
Citizen program.

for nominations is October 31.
The Junior Citizen program, co-ordinated
See play
By Mark Hobo
On October 19, a busload of students from
CHSS went to see a production of A Street-
car Named Desire at the Avon Theatre in
Stratford. The trip, supervised by Mr.
Wooden, Mrs. Robinson -and Mrs.
Jankowski, gave the Grade 12 students of
the advanced English course, the opportuni-
ty to see a modern production in the
dramatic arts.
The play, written by Tennesee Williams,
is set in New Orleans during the post -WWII
era: It is a tragedy about a family conflict
which leads to a middle-aged woman's in-
sanity.
The trip was paid for, in part, by the half-
back system. A large number of Wintario
tickets were collected by the students. This
paid for almost one third of the total ticket
cost. The funds saved will be used to help
pay for another such English trip in the spr-
ing. .
