Language Club In the Language Club we learn a different language (or languages) but that’s not all. We have fun, too. That’s right! Learning a language can be fun and it’s even better when someone else you know is learning the same language. It’s not hard, either. You work at your speed. You have no “home¬ work” unless you decide to give yourself some. There are no exams and you don’t have to finish the course. You can switch to others if you want. There are records and books- as well as tapes and texts. So far our club offers Spanish, Italian, German, Russian, French and Esperanto. If you want to learn a different language, we’ll help you get texts and tapes from the U.N. Our headquarters is the language lab on Thursdays at 12:30 P.M. You can join at any time. All you need to qualify is interest and a bit of enthusiasm. Carol Geddes LEFT TO RIGHT: Carol Geddes, Florence Duesterbeck, Diane How- lett, Mr. Petry (staff advisor). MISSING: Beverly McDougall. Public Speaking Club It started in October and was held on Monday at 12:30. This year it was more of a discussion group than a Public Speaking Club. One girl, Grace Crosley, entered the Bryant Oratory Contest and made a good showing with a speech on Advertising. We had discussions on Religion, Teachers, and Educational values and methods. There was also, to say the least, a very interesting debate on abortions. Mr. Cochrane was staff adviser. Tom Woodhouse BACK ROW: Barbara McLeod, Mr. Cochrane, Garnet Garven. FRONT ROW: Tom Woodhouse, Allan Kirk. MISSING: Ralph Light, Merv Phillips,GraceCrossley, BobHain, Candy Atkey. Bowling Club The Bowling Clug had seven five-man teams which bowled regularly throughout the year. The Sheldon-Williams Bowling Club chal¬ lenged Martin Collegiate to a tournament which was enthusiastically participated in. The season ended with trophies awarded to the top team, the girls’ and boys’ high double and high single games. We would like to thank our staff advisor, Mrs. Battiste, for all her assistance.

U.N.E.S.C.O. This year U.N.E.S.C.O. had a very success¬ ful year with good participation by members and students of this school. The first activity that our committee took part in was the national U.N.E.S.C.O. con¬ ference was pollution, and Sheldon was represented by five delegates. Our biggest project of the year was the undertaking of the 100 Villages scheme. Sheldon-Williams students took part in a Starve-lnn, and through these efforts man¬ aged to raise $2200.00 to aid in Ceylon edu¬ cation. Because of this large amount Sheldon has been able to sponsor four villages, and it is hoped that correspondence will be carried on with them next year. The U.N.E.S.C.O. committee next took part in a television show on the “Age of Aquarius”. The theme of the program was pollution and once again the members dem¬ onstrated their abilities. This year Sheldon had an opportunity to send delegates to Japan for a cultural visit and to take in Expo ’70. Jane Grigg, Moira Moxley and Bev Dow have been chosen to represent Sheldon on this tour.

Sheldon’s extra-curricular Biology Club definitely had the interest and support to warrant its continuation into the ’69-70 school year. Mr. and Mrs. Somers’ assistance outside Sheldon and Miss Benson’s, Mr. Betteridge ' s and Mr. Smith’s assistance as staff advisors proved more than sufficient in organizing a couple of field trips. As well, they supported the Population Explosion Conference. We also revisited the town of Silton for an interesting talk with Mr. Simmons and plan to co-oper¬ ate with the Biology Dept, on their ‘Big Muddy’ field trip. A canoe trip, involving SWAMP members from Sheldon and Scott, is also being planned for July 1-7, 70.
