Twenty-five students applied for five positions. Marianne Frayne . of Kingsbridge was chosen from G.D.C.I. to work on the project of organizing a library of old school board yrecords. Marianne will be entering a music`program at thgb University of Western Ontario this fall and she finds her summer job of eight weeks interesting, wor- thwhile and good experience. Darlene Carnochan of Seaforth, the project's co- ordinator has just completed her first year in art and history at the University of Western Ontario but has also developed 'an interest in library arts from working on the summer project. Her job as co-ordinator lasts 15 weeks. Team leader, -Randy Potter from. Clinton has a ten -week job on the library project. Liz Armstrong from the Wingham area completes the library team. The four students began their job by contacting the secretaries of various schools and picking up any old records which weren't already on file at the Board of Education, offices. The records include minutes of meetings, cash books, land deeds, newspapers and job applications froze teachers., Some of the records are mildewedand date back to the 1850s. The students were especially interested in the teachers' applications for jobs. They discovered that up until about ten years ago, the teachers always included their religion on their ap- plication forms and that being a Sunday School teacher was almost a prerequisite. The students were also interested ° in an item they. came across which dated back about 100 years. It concerned a board hearing on the severity of punishment received by a student from a teacher. The board ruled that the teacher be allowed to use taws, a leather whip cut into three strips and knotted at the ends. The students had a big job ahead of them taking in- ventory, organizing the old records, labelling them and filing them under number headings, schools and years. But now that the project is well underway, they are confident n that it will be completed in the required time. Jenny Reinink from Seaforth and Brenda 'Pepper from Hensall have both completed Grade 12 and are working in the media centre at the Huron County Board of Education offices for four weeks. They are screening films, cataloguing and labelling video tapes and films and helping in general to organize the Board's circulating library of tapes and films.

SATURDAY TILL 5:30 Your IMPACT column is a good service to the community and I thank you for it. I wonder if you can do something for me as I have a complaint, thank you. On March 2nd I ordered a pair of shoes from LANOVER PRODUCTS in Montreal through an ad. 1 saw in the National Enquirer. I sent them a cheque as requested for $9.95 which was promptly cashed, but I still haven't received the shoes. I wrote a letter of complaint before writing you, but that hasn't even been answered. Since receiving this lady's letter we have written twice on her behalf, but alas, fared no better, because our letters too have been completely ignored. We have now turned the particulars over to one of our solicitors, and will let our readers know the outcome. ►,� 1 INN 524- Your Full line • CHRYSLER. • PLYMOUTH • DODGE I�Olic aY 414 HURON RD. 831 1.
