Since 1974, Student Ven- ture Capital has given full- time students (18 years and older) the opportunity to finance their education while acquiring business ex- perience first hand. Projects may begin as early as April 1, 1980. Last year, 140 pro- jects were approved and $110,000 was lent to qualify- ing students in amounts ranging from $200 to $1,000. Sponsored by the Ministry of Education and the Minis- try of Colleges and Univer- sities in co-operation with various Chambers of Commerce in Ontario and the Royal Bank of Canada, Student Venture Capital is part of the Ontario Youth Secretariat's Experience "80 program to provide students with employment experi- ence. While most student ventures are profitable, successful projects tend to be labour intensive with low capital outlay and require a great deal of hard work and familiarity with the field of endeavour. In 1979, two Ryerson students made $2,400 net profit by creating clay beaver caricatures for sale by national stores. A Carleton University department student made $3,000 profit through the production and sale of light-weight kayaks which he made out of a high density polystyrene. Participating Chambers of Commerce share their business expertise and familiarity of the local business climate with the students. Local chamber members screen applica- tions, suggest improvements and recommend approval of those projects having the fundamental ingredients for success. Once the student's proposal is accepted, he or she must agree to follow standard business proce- dures, make regular finan- cial reports and repay the loan by October 31, 1980. The Royal Bank of Canada provides interest-free bridge loans to students who are .eager to begin their enter- prises before government financing is available. A Royal Bank financial liason officer provides banking and financial advice throughout the summer.

Dave Dick- son and defenceman Craig Mullen also may warrant a look with the big team next year, and like Thompson, saw duty once each. Internally, the Juveniles were a tumultuous outfit. They had little respect for coach Macc Callister, which was indicative by two players quitting the team, and one suspended. Scott Heard and Dale Geer packed it in part way through the year but Heard returned for the playoffs. Tim Parker was kicked off the team by MacCallister but later returned. Mullen also earned a one game suspen- sion from the manager Roy Burton, who later resigned, G.

After disposing of Ux- bridge, Port was blown out of a three game set by defen- ding champion Sterling. The problem with the MoJacks was that they had one good scorer, one good all round player, one good coach and a lack of consistency, elsewhere. Local man competes marathon (From page 12) kind of sport. "It's an experience, but I don't recommend it for everybody," Rodway stated. "It's a good experience." Last year Rodway ran in the Skylon Marathon from Buffalo to Niagara Falls. At this point, he isn't sure whether or not he'll run again. '"We'll just have to wait and see,' he replied. If he ever has designs on running in Boston he will have to lower his time by nearly 20 minutes. "I was pleased with what I did. I was satisfied with just finishing," he concluded.
