A, Fonresten Roy C. Flonnesten - EdIton and Manager The outeame of the Expo Tnip the forepant of the .week for some beventy students of Clarke High School was inost unfortunate. Both teachers, students and the sichool es a whole has something to lose and inl nunienous cases the ire of the parents has been aroused., The outeome of the Montreal trip Epred like wild- fine within houns and became the topic of conversation for c-veryone. Under sleh cîrcumstances ail features of the trip become grossly exagerated. We do feel that chaperons accept a great nespons- ibility when they take charge of a group. Individually, they wouid accept this nesponsibility to various degrees. It would appear that the chaperons on the Expo tnip were con§cientious and were concenned with their charge for the two days. As parents we should accept thein de- eision for it was made unden cincumstances 'known only to them. Rules and regulations are set to be observed, not to be broken. one may consider them too harsh but surely they are set for a purpose. . . A purpose of maintaining control andi order. A day at the World's Fair should have been more important to the students than a rebuke of the rules set, forth even though they felt they wene too stringent.

Dean Editor: I have been asked to make a statement concerning the s.ýtud- ents of Clarke uigh School who ,were brought back early froi the EXPO Trip, The chaperons gave the' stud- ents a reasonable time to be in their rouffs at the Canadiana Vil- lage. After repeated warings, a lar ge numbt'r continued to dis- obey the ralirg,_ the 9tudents were brought back as a disciplinany mensure. I wish to assure the parent8 that nio question of morality was evensggtd, but that this was a disciplinary measure because -of the flagrant bneaking of the cur- f ew raie, Sigued: E.

Before they even stanted on that bus trip they were told on which 'bas to sit, Smoking was. prohibited! An 11:30 curfew was cet! Any young healthy teenager who retires at that eanly hour, while on such, an exciting trip is simply not normal! The students were guilty of only one thing, act- ing normîrl. The poor, poon chap- erones4 only have themselves and their rules to blame. It's time the teachers, opened their-blind eyes and their narrow minds and gave their studentsý a chance to participate in the run- ning off their school, particulanly and ibaldry enjoyed by the vaca- the laws governing' themselves.
