* 10 The Canadian Statesman. Bowmanville. April 22. 1087 Section Three Happenings at B.H.S. Travel Logs Waste Time, Councillor Claims SPORTS By Geoff Vandermolen Last spring the Bowm'an- ville High School rugby team toured the United Kingdom. This year, to continue continue the tradition, our school sent a team to British 1 Columbia to represent B.H.S. The trip, sponsored by Open House Canada, gave 25 young men the opportunity opportunity to see how life is on the other side of Canada, and then to give the same chance to 25 players from B.C. From March 26-April 1 out team was in British Columbia Columbia and from April 24-30 a team from B.C. will visit Bowmanville. The team arrived at Yale High School, in Abbotsford, B.C., early Thursday afternoon; afternoon; and what a welcome we got. At first there was the usual uneasiness, but within 20 minutes, everyone had met their billets and that uneasiness was gone. About an hour later everyone went home with their billets to meet billet's families and have some supper. supper. At 7 o'clock everyone returned to the school for a dance. What a dance it was! This was probably the first social change our boys noticed. There, the girls ask you to dance, fast or slow song. They also found that you become a conversation piece when you dance alone. Two B.H.S. boys were dancing alone and boy were they talked about. After the dance some players went home while others got to know newly found friends,(right Paul) and still others found different activities. activities. Most were pretty tired, but surely they didn't . get much sleep if they were thinking about that tour of the brick plantthe next day. The next morning, Bowmanville Bowmanville boys attended first class with their billets, which incidentally started at 8 o'clock. After first class both teams boarded the bus for an exciting tour of the Clayburn Brick Plant, after which they were off to Fort Langley, a trimmed down version of Ontario's Black Creek Pioneer Village. Upon returning to the school, the Yale juniors took on our juniors in a controlled controlled scrimmage, while our senior players attended à practice with their seniors. By the way, the score of the junior game was 6-4 for Bowmanville. After dinner that night both teams and some female acquaintances went to the movies and saw either 'Platoon' or 'Lethal Weapon'. Once again, when the planned activities were over most of the players found an assortment of different different things to occupy themselves. The next day, Saturday, our B.H.S. team had a practice practice in the morning, while Yale players helped to set up for the afternoon and evening activities. Saturday afternoon was the survival game. The teams were made, backs from both teams against the scrums from both teams. The first game was won by the backs, but the second game was favouring the scrums when time ran out. That evening was a campfire and bar- beque which proved interesting interesting and funny. One thing to. remember though for that evening, if you go into the woods, don't go alone, right Paul, Travis and others. Sunday was a free day for the billets and their guests. Some people went skiing or sightseeing, etc. That night was a free swim at a local pool for both teams and families. Bright and early Monday morning both teams boarded the bus to New Westminister, where they boarded the sky-train for a day in Vancouver. The first stop was the B.C Place at the Expo '86 site for a movie on British Columbia, some lunch and souvenirs. The next two hours were free time to spend in Vancouver. After the two hours were up, both teams rented bikes for a ride in Stanley Park or wherever else they chose to go. After dinner, which followed followed the ride, the teams went to the top of Grousse Mountain, despite some protests. Both teams would probably agree that Grousse Mountain afforded a spectacular view of Vancouver Vancouver at night. Tuesday morning there were fifty sleepy rugby players supposedly attending attending classes for the morning. After lunch, a highly enthusiastic, enthusiastic, bordering on ecstatic, ecstatic, Yale pep rally folowed. The pep rally, attended attended by all Yale students, included everything from logs to hair shaving! Then it was game time. Yale scored ' the first try to make it 4-0. Richard Fischer(just call him Fish) scored Bowman- ville's first and only try of the game to tie it 4-4. Another try and convert by Yale finished the scoring at 10-4 in Yale's favour. Score didn't matter to either team though, because win or lose everyone was still friends.

After all the good-byes had been said for the umpteenth time, everyone thanked, and the suitcases loaded it came time to leave. Everyone, I'm sure, made some friends, and had a great time and I don't think there was anyone who wouldn'thave stayed longer if they could have. But, one thought made leaving easier; the knowledge that not just rugby players would be coming back from April 24-30, but friends as well. Thank you Yale High School and everyone that made the trip a success. by Rob Savage Councillor Hal McKnight says town staff will be wasting wasting time recording the travel routes for town vehicles. vehicles. He argued last week that there is no reason to keep manual records of each vehicle's trip when a computer system capable of keeping those records will soon be installed in the Public Works department. "Why expend the energy when three or four months down the road we will have a system in place?" he asked. "Surely, this can't be a priority for the town to spend this inordinate amount of time?" His concerns followed a decision made on April 6 at the General Purpose Committee Committee meeting while he was on holidays. That decision calls for an ongoing log from each municipal department of the routes taken by town vehicles. Specifically, they would record the date of each trip, the driver of the vehicle, the mileage travelled travelled and the destination of the call. The motion was made last week by Mayor John Winters. Winters. On Monday, he defended defended the motion for council. council. He argued that councillors councillors often receive calls saying saying a town vehicle was seen in an area it should not have been. He said that without any records, the town has no way to defend itself. "It's embarrassing," Mayor Winters said. "Right now, I can't defend our position. position. "Regardless of whether or not you have a computer, this information will still have to be put into the' records," records," he added. Councillor Arnot Wotten argued that the computer system planned for Public Works is designed for fleet management and only reports reports on items about the vehicle itself. He says there are no records kept saying who drove the vehicle at a specific time. But Councillor McKnight maintained that the records could be kept and he insisted insisted there is no reason to begin manual records now. "What's the point?" he asked. However, Council eventually eventually voted in favor of the committee decision. BREAKFAST SPECIALS A v- j jEÜ RMS i ■ -SisS-P Prices effective April 20-25,1987.
