Page 24, Whitby Free Press, Weclnesday, February 24, 1993 Meranda Waters HENRY ST. H.S. "Razzie, dazzle, shish-boom-ba, Henry High School, rah rah rah!' I must admit it's hard not te get caught up inl Henry sports events, especially this week. Aside from our usual 'winter' teams, a few more tried and true Henry teams have re-entered the picture. Is it a sign that spring is fast approaching? Perhaps. A prime example of a Henry team we haven't heard from in a while is the Hawks swim teanq. They've been training since October and finally got to show off their stuf at LOSSA. Congratulations te the women's relay team of' Dristina Kukk, Trisha Luke, Marg Sharp and Smita Vakil who captured the fourth-place award in the open 200m medley relay, and to Joanne Adams, Marianne Dixon, Janet Phillips and Jen Morine who placed fifth in the junior 200m freestyle relay. Individual gai swimmers were Smita Vakil who received a bronze ini the 50m fly and a fourth in the 100m individual medley. Kristina Kukk grabbed fourth in the 100m backstroke WIN ATRIP TO .BELIZE!

Congratulations te the men's relay team of Ben Davies, Darren Smith, Anthony Mayer and Dave Kidd who captured the gold medal in the 200m freestyle. It seems the men's relay team continued their winning streak throughout the teurnament as each member wont on te represent Henry in different events. Ben Davies competed in the 200m medley relay and the 50m butterfly and received two well-deserved silver medals, and in the 100m individual medley event he was foui-th. Darren Smith was really in the swim of things when he captured second place in the medley relay and fourth place ini both the 50m butterfly and the 100m backstroke. Anthony Mayer was also a multiple medal winner, leaving the LOSSA tournament with three silver medals in the 200mn medley, the 200m freestyle and the 100m backstroke. And last but not least is Dave Kidd who added te the Hawks' successes with a silver and gold in relay competition and a fifth place in the 100m individual medley. The hard work and determination of the Hawk swim team resulted in a fourth-place finish overail. Way te go. The Central Tech indoor invitational track and field meet in Toronto on Feb. 12 featured some familiar Henry athietes. Competitors included Jon Hopkins, Brent Giles and ' the RACHEL JAGGER'S Inner Reflections' is one of the works in a showcase of art by Anderson CVI OAC students.

John Hopkins placed sixth in the long jump and Brent Giles was sixth in high jump. The 60m hurdies event brought Brumley and Bacchiochi in a nose-to-nose, shoulder- to-shoulder competition as they crossed the finish lino at the same time. The instant relay couldn't determine a winner se the judges went te the hand-held timers te, decide that Jason Bacchiochi was the wvinner by two one hundredths cf a second. However, if you ask me, they both deserved the gold. Congratuations te aIl of Henry's teams and their members for their excellent showings at this week's competitions. JEP pre on' College and Li university to work together on food and drug programs Durham College and the University of Guelph signed a formaI agreement recently, Iinking two food science-related programs offered at the institutions. The articulation agreement comes in three parts. The first agreement is the commitment between the two institutions te work ce- operatively in a number of program areas. It serves to focus on workplace education and training needs, and expands and improves opportunities for students te move between Durham and Guelph. The second portion cf the agreement links food and drug technology at Durham College te the baichelor cf fixd science degree at Guelph. Advanced standing for qualified Durham students will be offered. Therefore, a Durham College graduate could complete the four-year food science degree in two and onr-half years. Fifteen seats in th;c food science program will be reserved for Durham College graduates. The final portion of the agreement is the appointment of a continuing education develop- ment co-ordinater whose role involves the development and delivery of education and training programs for workers in Ontario's food pr essing industry. - This individual is based in Guelph but works jointly for the two institutions. "This is the tirst of what could be a series cf linkages involving food and beverage management and environmental technology programs at Durham College and the environmental science and hotel and food administration degree programs at Guelph," c<)mmented Deug Tripp, director of technology' at Durham College. "College students have long been interested in attending universîty programs following college education.
