Celebrated 1st Birthday Hi, my name is Michael Scott and I celebrated my first birthday May 10th, 1984. My proud mommy and daddy are Brenda and Scott. My proud grandparents grandparents are George and Shirley Smith and Bill and June Sellers, all of Bowmanville..A great grandson of Mrs. Hilda Abernethy of Bowmanville, and Mrs. Jean Smith of Janetville. B.H.S. News r By Janice Seto, Editor ,1 am stunned by the incredible incredible response to last week's rdyiew of The King and I. It seems everyone at Bowman- viUe High School and the community community has an opinion about thé quality of the review. I have overheard many deep philosophical arguments about about the quality of the review. I hâve overheard many deep philosophical arguments about topics like loyalty and responsiblility of press in the halls and the classrooms. Some dissenters of the review hàVe expressed the idea that BHS News should be an endorser endorser of the school, and that criticisms of the play should not be under the title of BHS News. An interesting idea that was not given to me at the time of my review of the previous play,"See How They Run" which, like The King and I, was a review pointing oiit the highlights and low lights of the play. I am very interested in hearing the opinions opinions of the readership in the community regarding the editorial editorial policy of BHS News. It sure is great to see BHS debating debating about issues! Many students who have experienced a "total eclipse of the heart" were given the opportunity to see an eclipse of the sun on May 30th. The tech department very graciously graciously loaned Mr. LeGresley welding filters as the necessary necessary eye protection. The view was spectacular! On TV that evening the eclipse was the lead story. The next solar eclipse visible to this area is not due until 2025 but Hailey's comet is scheduled for a visit in 1986. The International Exams in Chemistry and Biology were taken by Grade 13 students on May 28th. Preparation includ ed a review of the year's work. ' One of the most important sections in the Biology year focuses on Ecology. Recycling of re-usable resources was stressed. In last week's Statesman, Statesman, the problem of finding new dump sites was the topic of the editorial. Recycling was mentioned as an important part of the solution. I visited the Newcastle Environment Watchers recycling depot un, Saturday and had a nleasant chat with one of the volunteers. volunteers. This lady told me that the depot has been operating for five years and accepts cans, paper from newspapers and magazines and writing paper, and glass. The depot's hours are Saturday from 10 to 1. The ease of collecting your re-usable materials and dropping them at the depot takes little time. Let's get together and support the depot. One man's trash is everyone's re-usable treasure. The Yearbook is due this week! For the departing students, students, the Yearbook is a volume volume of memories. In this article article I have started a list wherebv everyone can have some teachers' unique distinguishing distinguishing phrases to clip out and add to the yearbook. Perhaps Perhaps in next year's edition of the Yearbook, a full list may be part of the memories. Because Because of the lack of time, my compiled list is not complete. Only grade 13 teachers are included. I originally wanted all grade 12 teachers too but I had about 50 names, enough for a page in the Statesman! Mr. Brunt: "Mathematicians being what they are..." Mrs. Winston: "Ok kiddies, do you know you have overdue library books?" Mr. LeGresley: "By now you should have great respect for the human body." Mr. Thompson: "It's Mr. T.,you incredibly lucky people!" "If you don't learn this, you won't go to Economics heaven." heaven." "Shut up or I'll beat you." Mr. Chambers: "It's a ho hum day."

"Richards, you have my textbook." textbook." Mr. Sheridan: "I'm giving you the best years of my life at taxpayers' expense." "Why don't you go up to Mount Kirby, find a patch of snow..." Mr. Letts: "Pens down, books closed." Mr. Austin: "It's my turn to talk now. Anyways..." 'Does nobody have any questions? questions? I'm being paid a few dollars an hour to stand here." Mr. Milovick: "Essays, anyone?" anyone?" Mr. Morris: "Plagarism will result in..." Miss Ashley: "My handwriting's handwriting's terrible." Ms. Munro: "A hundred lashes with a wet noodle!" Mr. Ramdial: "Basically..." "Blah, blah, blah." "Come on, people this is not that bad." Mrs. Eccles: "Grade nine twerps..." Mrs. Wood: "It's really not that bad, girls." Mr. Tremeer: "Would you go home and practice it 200 times." "Get it right this time." Mr. Parker: "I don't care...if you make a mistake, I want to hear it." Mr. Netten: "What's the Byline... By Peter Parrott The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, June 6,1984 3 Engagement Announced Michaelangelo had his Cistine Chapel. Leonardo Da Vinci had his Mona Lisa. And now, Peter Parrott Parrott has his ceramic tile. Yes, this column reveals reveals the inside story of how one mild-mannered mild-mannered reporter broke into the art world. My masterpiece is a single tile from the 300 or so which will be placed in the Bowmanville Bowmanville Library this fall to form a frieze commemorating commemorating Ontario's bicentennial. (That's a fancy word for a kind of wall decoration located in a band near the ceiling.) ceiling.) There's a certain glow of artistic pride when one thinks that one's work will be gazed at by students as they daydream over the encyclopedia or sages taking a break from purusing Popular Mechanics. Not that Pd want to make a full-time career out of this sort of thing. The brushes drip too much paint and the colors colors don't land where you expect them to. At least that's what we found out last week when a group of us, along with the school kids, drew our designs onto the tiles. Mostly, the work was left to the kids. And that's just as well, be- Announce Engagement Russell and Marilynn Dow are pleaised to announce announce the engagement of their only daughter, Karen Louise to Robert Read, eldest son of Mrs. Audrey Read and Mr. Clayton Read.

Mr. Kelly: "If you want a good dictionary, I know one you can purchase for $3,000.00." Mrs. Hilts: "(En français) What did you do on the weekend weekend or summer vacation?" Mr. Ball: "...albeit stuff such as that..." "Louis Hamlyn..." Mr. Abrams: "Be careful now..." "What's the problem?" "More golf courses, Mr. Yates?" "No one has read 'The Catcher Catcher on the Rye?" The list ends with a few famous quotations from other teachers. Mr. Cochrane: "Now for the remarks from the peanut gallery..." Mr. Lemieux: "Okeedokie!" Mr. Clarke: "(Blows into mike) WE are well into period six, there should be no one in the halls. If you have a permanent permanent passout, you should be either in the library or the cafeteria or off school property. property. There should be no one in the halls." Congratulations to those exempted exempted from exams. Good luck to those who have to write. To everyone, don't drink and drive, good luck in June. cause every kid is a natural natural artist. Kindergarten Kindergarten classes can splash color and creativity with the verve and flair that Picasso would admire. admire. (In fact, he did admire admire such work of youngsters. He claimed it took him all his life to learn to paint like a child.) Older kids can't paint quite as well as youngsters. youngsters. And by the time you reach adulthood, you find the creative wellsprings have all but dried up. However, I suspect that the service club representatives, the painters from the Town of Newcastle, and Durham East MPP Sam Cureatz all enjoyed creating a piece of posterity. posterity. I know I did. And I don't think the adults' work was all that bad. Now, for my own particular particular contribution, let me describe it in this way. Bear in mind, of course, that the tile was meant to represent the Canadian Statesman and also the Ontario bicentennial. It consists of a stylized capital S for the Canadian Statesman, Statesman, along with a background background of lines and blocks of paint to symbolize symbolize our columns and photographs in the newspaper. One other word proclaims the headline "bicentennial" "bicentennial" which represents the 200th anniversary of the town and also the Statesman's own contribution contribution to Ontario's history during its 130 or so years of existence. But it's really embarrassing embarrassing for an, artist to write aboytr-his own work like this. Best to wait until the reviews come out. And you'll see the results results of our efforts -- all 300 of us -- in approximately approximately four months' time when the frieze is formally unveiled at the public library in Bowmanville. Mr. and Mrs. Robert Stevens of Bowmanville wish to announce the forthcoming forthcoming marriage of their daughter Dianne Lynn to Christopher David, son of Mr. and Mrs. David McMullen, Toronto.
