I i I The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, February 13, 1985 15 Bowmanville High School News By Merrilee Brown, Editor Editorial: Have a Heart B.H.S. has heart. In the two phenomenally successful fundraising drives so far this year, Bowmanville High School has really outdone itself. itself. Our first, the United Way Campaign raised over $2000.00, set a school record and was the most successful in the entire region. The Aid for Ethiopia Campaign raised more money than any other school in all of Ontario, according according to the UNICEF organization, organization, In addition, money has been raised by the B.H.S. Student Council's efforts for the Salvation Army and the Big Brothers Organization. When most schools have just one major fund-raising project, project, B.H.S. has many - all- amazingly effective, thanks to the dedication, ingenuity and creativity of Student's Council. Exams are over. It's time to celebrate (or forget your troubles) ! It is customary that Heart Fund Week is a "wild n' crazy" ending to exams. This year's campaign promises to be the best ever; (to quote the announcement) "the roof is coming off Bowmanville High School..." This year a special blend of tradition and novelty is being prepared by Student's Council. The traditional "dress-up" days are as much a part of Heart Fund Week as Valentine's Day. Monday is "plaid day." Plaid was the fashion buzzword this winter for Canadians and is always the fashion buzzword for Scots. Grab your kilt, your "Big Country" plaid shirts and your trendy plaid scarves. Tuesday is i'celebrity day." Students are to dress up as superheroes like Batman, Flash Gordon and Charlie Clarke. Wednesday brings "summer tourist day." You'll have fun in the sun if you don your bermudas, tackiest tourist "Hawaiian" print shirts, seven or eight cameras along with other standard tourist paraphenalia - suntan lotion, maps, hand bags of tacky souvenirs, more maps... Thursday, Valentine's Day is Red, White and Pink Day in honour of St. Valentine. You'll probably be sick of dressing up by now so Friday is "slob day" - wear anything you want - even if your mother won't let you out of the house in that ripped up pair of jeans and paint-splattered torn sweatshirt! But the most important outfit you'll wear during Heart Fund Week is the one you'll wear to the best dance of the year. Students' Council is going all out to bring you the best dance ever. Voting has been tabulated and B.H.S.'s Top 50 songs will be played. "We're shipping in fifty-billion- thousand watts of power...ten tons of lighting equipment..." and other equipment that your mind cannot even imagine! The expense budget for this dance is the largest ever so the $3.50 admission is very reasonable. Student's Council is bringing bringing in some new traditions. Eric Peebles has spent countless countless hours working out a computer program for a computer computer dating quiz. Everyone will fill out a sheet which will measure your compatibility with 10 others (of the opposite sex). For $2.00, you can find out (in curiosity, or in earnest) who would make your best match. Would you and Matthew Goad make a perfect couple? Or are you and Darla Cameron a match? In addition, there is a plethora of other activities - a bake sale where you may purchase purchase edible food at lunch (incredible though it may seem) including my (world famous?) chocolate chip cookies, carnations to send and other unmentionables. I know B.H.S. will show its heart this week. B.H.S. Basketball News By Sam Laskaris It was quite the busy week for the B.H.S. boys' basketball teams as all three teams competed in their two final regular season league games.

On February 4th, the Toros netted a 9 - 6 victory over Cobourg. Goals were earned by Brian Noble ( three), Kelley Balsom (two), Chris Beck, Scott Page, Ted Groves and Mike Gallant. Beck added four assists, Thompson (three), Gallant and Armstrong with two and Page, Vanleuven and Noble with one each.

Let's hope it heals quickly. The three goals by the Toros were by Chris Beck, Jeff Thompson and Mike Gallant. Assists went to Ted Groves (two), Larry Perris and Kelley Balsom. The sixth win for the Toros was against Peterborough with a 6 - 3 score. Chris Beck had a busy night scoring four goals and adding one assist.
