I The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville November 20, 1974 The NewcastlelIndependent Socil anc1 On Friday night, while Clarke High School was rock- in' and rollin' at a sock-hop, tragedy once again struck on 1he 115 highway just outside of te school. A young Kingston ian, Mark Donaghue, was .killed in a head on collision For a while there was some ADULT COUNSELLING SERVICE If you want to do something about your education . you probably can, See Your Aduit Counsellor EVERY TUESDAY EVENING 7 to 9 at the JEW BOWMANVILLE HIGII SCHOOL GUIDANCE OFFICE The service is free confidential-and no appointment is necessary. Telephone 987-4674 ]4?rsona!n I confusion as to whether the accidçnnt involved one of the students attending the dance, but it was found that the victim did not attend school; although he may have been trying to get into the dance. But one thing ýcannot be overlooked. Mark could have been one of the students, and the problem of an'alternate entrance to the Clarke High School Complex mustB e solved. Unfortunately, it takes a horrible accident such as the one on Friday night to draw the urgently needed attention to the problem. Bein a student at Clarke myself I perhaps feel the situation more acutely, since I have to come in and go out of Clarke almost every day. Many of my fellow students do drive to school and I know one personally who was in an accident leaving the school because of blind spots in the driveway. Fortunately she was only a little shaken, but Mark Donaghue was not so lucky. If the voice of one student has any effect on the parents and officials involved in an alternate entrance to the Clarke school I, and many other students in Clarke, would be very grateful and feel much safer. On a lighter note, I had the opportunity to speak to the Newcastle Lionettes last Tues- day night on my China trip. The ladies were having their monthly dinner, held at the home of Mrs, Pauline Storks. The food was delicious, the hostess charming, and the conversation was very plea- sant indeed. But all is not play with the Newcastle Lionettes! After my talk they got right down to business. They have made a commendable effort at raising money for the Lions Swimming Pool Project, as well as tuning up their vocal cords for the on coming carol-sing. I would like to openly thank them for their gracious reception of myself and my China experiences, and I would like to thank them on behalf of the community for the excellent job they are doing. I'm sure many groups in Newcastle deserve a great deai of public praise, but I can't do that if the group organizers don t let me in on whats going on. Irlike to think of the Newcastle Independant as Newcastle's column, not mine. So, if anyone in New- castle bas a line on something that concerns the communit, phone me at 987-4674 and I11 try and do the story justice.
