Tonigbt is the second annual graduation ceremony in the history of Bowmanville Senior Public School and will be well remembered by all the graduates present this even- ing. I am very honoured to be speaking here tonight to you on behalf of all the graduates. When we think back to last summer, we students were all looking forward to seeing the brand new Senior Public, that had been praised by everyone. Finally, September arrived and we got a chance to take our first glance at this huge new school. All the students were extremely surprised at the large gymnasiums, the modern resource centre and the beautifully painted walls of all the classrooms and hallways. Our first and only year in this school had begun and we were all eager to get started. There was only one problem .... getting lost. Being in a brand new school was one thing, but finding your way around was another. On Nov. 25th, Bowmanville Senior Public had it's official opening ceremonies. Also, in November, we experienced our first set of exams. This was to prepare us for our coming years in High School. To create school spirit we started a bouse league pro- gramme. We separated into 6 groups or 'houses', and for each house we chose the nanme of a Canadian athlete. Two representatives from each of the 6 bouses, a captain and an assistant captain were chosen and these 12 students formed Bowmanville Senior Public's first Student Council. Throughout the year each house planned an activity. We had 4 school dances and a Winter Carnival week in February. During Carnival week we participated in a student-staff tug of War, a toboggan race, a cover-the- teacher contest, a snow-shoe race and a game of snow soccer. For Valentine's Day we held a Cupid Carnival at the Bowmanville Arena. Another attempt to create school spirit was with the aid of sports. Soccer was our first team sport and we competed in the Western Area County Tournament. On Feb. 8th. our volley-ball teams competed in the area tournament. Our boys team placed first and the girls team not far behind with a second. Another victory was gained in April. Our gymnasts went to a meet at Bowman- ville High School and won first place. The Western Area Track and Field meet was also held at Bowmanville High School this year. The results supper guests of Mr. and Mrs. Bruce Heaslip. During last week, Mr. and Mrs. Norman Mairs moved, from their home at North Nestleton, into their recently built home which is east of the village on the Cadmus Road. Best wishes are extended to them for many years of health and happiness. Sunday Service (Service resumes August 8) In the Presbyterian Church on Sunday morning Miss Dorothy Bulmer, Deaconess, presented a Film Strip called "Celebration" which is the story of the Presbyterian Church in Canada and over- seas. It is the story of many ethnic groups, young and old, rich and poor throughout our church - day care centres, inner-city work, homes for unwed mothers, fellowship centres and homes for senior citizens, all supported by our church. We must look to the future and plan for the future as Christ's work must go on. Scripture Mark 16: 14-20 was read which admonishes, "Go ye into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature". United Church In the United Church Rev- erend Victor Parsons chose "Dominion Day" for his splendid sermon. Miss Gail Malcolm sang "Fill My Cup, Lord". Service continues during July. ctory Ac from our school were most favourable...but did not seri- ously threaten the up-coming Olympics. We competed against the Pines and M.J. Hobbs and our school finished with the highest number of points and won 6 out of the 18 medals awarded. The highlight of our Grade 8 year our exciting and very memorable school trip to Camp Tawingo. We visited this camp during the last week of April. Our trip, as well as being educational, was a very good social experience. Isn't that right Miss Melsop? The students and the teachers became better acquainted during these 3 days of living outside a classroom. Such an undertaking required a great expense, and raising the money we needed was part of the fun. On the whole, Camp Tawingo was a great success, and all the teachers who made it possible deserve our con- gratulations. A special thanks to Mnr. Putnam who organized the whole thing. Again this year Mrs. Jones and the students held a very successful Fashion Show. The girls modelled garments made in Home Ec. classes during the year. But the year wouldn't have been complete if Lisa Frank wasn't doing gymnastics in the hallways, or if Mr. Leith wasn't spreading his famous 'jollies' everywhere or if Miss Pamela Scruton of Foxholes, Yorkshire, Eng- land, a United Kingdom Jun- ior Farmer ^Delegate, spent from June 18 - 25th as a guest of Louise VanCamp and June 25th - July 2nd with Debbie McLaughlin and is now visit- ing in Prince Edward County. Mr. and Mrs. Terry Wood of Brampton visited Saturday with Mr. and Mrs. Roy McLaughlin and all joined with Mr. and Mrs. David Kyte for a barbecue supper. Sorry to hear Mr. Marwood McKee is still a patient in Oshawa General Hospital. Janet Watson from Aylmer visited on Wed. with Mrs. W.W. VanCamp and called on friends she knew while teach- ing here. Several from here attended the annual picnic at D.S. Park on Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. Jim Bryans, Courtice, were overnight guests recently of Mr. and Mrs. Bob Bryans. Russell Essery visited Gord Bryans at Bryans cottage, Kelly's. Bay on Sturgeon Lake where Russell was rescued from a tipped canoe on Sunday by Mr. and Mrs. Alf Tomchi- shim, Port Perry, who were vacationing in the next cot- tage. Winners at the Senior Citi- zens Card Party with 19 tables were as follows: 1st - Flossie Aldred 88, 2nd - Isabel Wright 85, 3rd - Florence East 83, 4th - Lorna Richards 79, 5th - Idress Brook Cole wasn't failing a Math Test. Yes, the year just wouldn't be the same if the 'Imperial Wizard', Andrew Sproatt wasn't experimenting in his laboratory or if Mr. Putnam wasn't telling us how good the boys are. I would like to take the time Mr. Moore; our Vice-Princi- Mr. Moore; our Vice-Princi pal, Mr. Maclvor, and ail our teachers who have worked extremely hard to prepare us for High School. They have educated us socially as well as mentally. They have repected us as individuals, giving us the opportunity to make our own decisions, and started us on our journey to success. Now we, must strive to continue that journey. To them we owe a great deal and I thank them. I would also like to thank our parents and older brothers and sisters. They have set the standards and it is up to us to attempt to match them. Our parenta understand our prob- lerns and in their own special manner show us the way. I would like to think that we will follow in their footsteps and grow up to be good citizens. We will prove to our teachers and parents that their faithful guidance has paid off. This past year in Grade 8 has been very exciting and unforget- table. We have matured academically and physically and I think we are well prepared for High School. Letter Suggests Contaminated FI1 Be Put in Harbour A letter from the Port Hooe Harbour Commission recom- mends a possible solution to the question of how contamin- ated fill in the town of Port Hope will be disposed of. The letter suggests the low level contaminated material could be dumped in the town's present harbour basin. The basin is already described as contaminated. Harbour commission chairman, Emmet Creighton, said in a letter to Energy Mines and Resources Minister, Allistair Gillespie that the proposal had already been verbally discussed with Eldorado Nuclear Limited and the Port Hope Yacht Club. According to the letter, the filling of the Port Hope Harbour would give Eldorado Nuclear Limited several more acres of property. It would allow al of Eldorado's prop- erty to be joined together and fenced. "And most important, Eldorado would no longer have boaters for neighbours," the letter said. If the old harbour were filled in, the letter recomnends that a new one be built east of the east pier. It suggests that the new harbour would be 600,000 square feet to allow for expansion in boating and tourism. The cost of the harbour filling project was estimted at between $600,000 and $1,100, 000. The harbour commission letter surfaced at a meeting of SEAP (Save the Environment from Atomic Pollution) on June 28. Bernice Gibson 77, 6th - Wallace Marlow 76, Low - Clara Marlow.

Dog Bites House A 75 to 85 pound dog, belie'ved to be part German Shepherd, did $200 damage to a house near Peterborough last week and then eluded Ontario Provincial Police. The animal ripped a section of insulation and siding 10 by 3 feet in length from the home of Raymond Clancy, of R.R. 4, Lakefield. The damage occur- red late Wednesday night, June 30. Having attacked the house once, the dog returned later in the night, howling and threat- ening the Clancy family. Police spokesmen said last week that they had šighted the dog several times and chased it once with a police cruiser but were unable to get a shôt at it. Since the animals had managed to stay away from police for three days, the OPP had doubts that it was rabid. They said they would have to shoot the dog, however, be- cause it was a menace to cottagers in the Young's Point area. The OPP said they are doing as much as possible, with a team of officers assigned to look for the dog on every shift. But they warned people to be on their guard. As of Saturday last week, the dog had not yet been captured. A Canadian Red Cross Summer Safety Tip: Yell to us for help before you need it, says the Water Safety Service.
