,,- 988 Liz Aruta Lastweek allof Canada participatedin some sort of physicalactivity in order to promote fitness. Denis O'Connor's contribution to 'Fitness Week" was a walk around the track. Our band played for 15 minutes to mark the beginning and end of the walk. Students and teachers were urged on with the thought of heading bà ck to a warm gymnasium as Wed- nesday proved to be a cool day. Another factor that inspired the walkers was the speeches of our student politicians. These speeches were to end the campaigns of the students running for positions on the student council executive. Each student showed their courage and eagerness to the whole DO'C body. Considering that all the students running for a position on the council are responsible and friendly people, the voting was very difficult. Elections took place on Thursday, May 26, the day after speeches were given. As I write this, it is not known as yet who will represent DO'C in the executive council next year. The results will be given.at a later date. Friday, May 27, marked the return of the DO'C Spring Break Day. In past years, the whole DO'C body spent a day at the community centre participating in all kinds of activities, relaxing and basically getting to know each other. This year is no different, except that all the fun and games took place at our school. Also more activities were added, in- cluding the teacher dunk machine (which proved to be the most popular), the tug o' war and an obstacle course race. Students were also treated to a free lunch along with a beautiful day -just like Mr. Cole, our very own weatherman, had predicted. Most of the day was spent either relaxing or playing games. The end of the day saw the return of the annual DO'Cument has been orinted in color. Our vearbook committee put a lot of time and effort into this year's edition and it was evident in the quality. Finally, the last dance of the year was our annual semi-formal. It was a SEE PAGE 38 Bryçe Cooper Do you believe in magie? An interesting question, isn't it? Many An- derson students were asking each other this question last week when An- derson's ye rbook was distributed. Symbolic '88 carried that question anda large t icorn on the cover and was packed fullof great pictures and interesting 'ustrations on the pages inside. Symbolique '88 centers aroundthethmeof magic and its many wonders. The editors, LeigiAnn Dunn and Leanne Cole, did a superb job in putting together this year's yearbook. Everyone who participated in the yearbook should also be thanked for their efforts, with special thanks to staff advisors Mrs. Turk and Mrs. Rodgers. Moga Madness seemed to surprise almost all of Anderson's staff. When it was announced last week that Moga this year was going to a hog-calling contest, they must have so much in awe that they never went out and par- ticipated. In fact only about two per cent showed up for Moga. Perhaps next year Moga will return with the same energy that it had last year. School is almost over, and none too soon. This is not meant as an insult to the staff and administration at Anderson but it seems like it has been a very long year. It is also very difficult to be patient for the end of something that began so very long ago. I think everyone is looking for- wardtosummer. Ann Dunn As the school year comes to an end there are only a few more events to takeplaceatTrafalgar. Last week the Ladies' Guild of Trafalgar hosted a Senior Tea. Tea and cake was served as seniors were introduced to members of the alumnae. All graduating students are encouraged to join the alumnae which publishes an annual newsletter to keepup to date on school functions and to stay in touch with old friends. The week before the tea was the Senior Dinner. On this night the entire school gathered for a delicious meal in honor of the senior girls. Al of the organizations and class presidents gave a farewell speech and the evening came to a close as everyone sang the school song. The Victoria Day long weekend was celebrated for the second vear at Trafalgar with fireworks on the grounds. It was the perfect end to a glorious weekend anda great start toa short week. Six girls qualified for DYSSAA which took place at York University. Stephanie Taylor once again broke records in the 200m and 400m runs. Anya Smith was close behind Taylor placing second in the 200m and 400m runs as well as breaking the record for senior girls' javelin. The relay team of Stephanie Taylor, Anya Smith, Giselle Mungal and Nikki Holenkirk placed first in senior relay. They all then qualified for the Cen- tral Regional Track Meetheld on May 26 and28. All other athletes have been shaping up for weeks for the annual Trafalgar House Track and Field Day June 3. This always proves to be a fun afternoon as the excitement rises for the final race - teachers against the students. Good luck and may the best house win!

P flTiWPaUTIl • 09 Alison Frost Congratulations are in order to the cast and crew of "You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown." The play was performedat Oshawa Little Theatre onMay18and 19at7:30 p.m. sharp. Botheveningsweregreatsuccesses! I hope those of you who came enjoyed it. For those of you who did not, the play, starring Lucy, Charlie Brown, Schroeder, Linus, Patty and, of course, Snoopyand the irreplaceable chorus, highlighted a day in the life of Charlie Brown and his friends -the triumphs and the disasters! Com- bined with music and a colorful set, the play provided entertainment and laughs, roars, and giggles. Once again, congratulations and thanks, cast andcrew. Time flies by when you're having fun! It seems like only last week exams were a thing of the distant future. Now they are a reality. Begin- ning on June 3, Quest students, from Grades 7 to 13, will.be writing their final exams. Goodluck to all! On a happier note, everyone is looking forward to the week following exams. I've heard that various pool parties and several different trips to Canada's Wonderland areinstore, and even a trip to a Blue Jays'game! Let's not jump ahead, though. Plenty has happened with the coming of May. For instance, the gym program has been moved outdoors to Peel Park in Whitby where we play interhouse baseball. The first games were played last Wednesday. The Phoenixes played the Griffins and the Cen- taurs played the Dragons. The Centaurs beat the Dragons 25-10. The Phoenix/Griffin game was a little closer. The Griffins won 14-13. We all had a great time. Last Friday, flag football was played at theschool for house league. It, too, was a close game. To end off, let me just mention "Only three and a half weeks left of school!" Gayle Snyder The sun is shining, attendance is slowly declining, teachers are going crazy trying to cram every last bit of information in their students' heads, and, ah yes...final exams. Yes, I'd say the'88 school year is slowly drawing to a close. By the looks of most of the students faces it will be a welcome event! One good thing about this pre-end of school period, though, is it's the time that our formal rolls around and that it did last Friday night at the Harbor Castle Hilton. It was the last time the seniors had a chance to ail get together and by the sounds of it everyone had a great time! Everyone looked great. There was lots of food and lots of dancing in a beautiful hail. What else could we ask for? I would like to thank the grad committee and the students' council for ail their hard work and dedication in putting it together and making sure everything ran smoothly. Highlights of the evening were a slide show and the crowning of the King and Queen, Rob Oliver and Robbin Tourangeau. It was an extravagant affair thatI'm sure no one will forget. Thanks again. Our summer Spirit Week also went off without a hitch. I'm sure it took a few minds off the work load and the.final exams! Everyone had a great SEE PAGE 38 t rý,ojeb Irm'm qcreýýg â-eý, nn nâhy %L mugh
