Thank you. namnes of the people in my discus- sion group. First on the agenda was a speech by Dr. Walter Pitman. His speech was entitled "Wbat it Means to be an Educated person in the Future." Dr. Walter Pitman gave a.powerful and inspiritional speech about bis expectations of the future of the world. What he sees for the future is a workable global economy and education that is strongly linked to environmentalism. He wants educa- tion to teach our cbildren how to think for themselves. For education to do this he gave us seven guidelines to work towards. After the speech, aIl the people in the theatre were told to go to their separate discussion groups. I was in group four. Each group was first asked to discuss the positive ,and negative aspect of today's educa- tion system. AIl the discussion groups met back in the theatre for a snack. Within fifteen minutes we were back in our groups discussing the next question which was, "What are the major trends affectingthe future of society?" The groups met at the theatre after lunch for another speech. The speech was given by Mr. Richard Barker, a General Electric Com- pany representative. The topic of his speech was "Crystal BaIl Gazing - Futuristic Perspective". We entered our discussion groups for another hour and discussed the question "In what ways can the edùcation system address the trends of Society?" SIn between three o'clock and three-thirty aIl the groups met at the theatre for "'Reflection of the Con- ference". A representative from each of the four discussion groups gave an answer for one of the four questions asked of the groups. My group contained parents, teachers, business people and, myself, a student. At times we argued priorities and the role of education but we came up with a mutually agreeable conclusion. This conclusion was that education is do- ing well at the moment but as in the business world, education should reflect current trends of society and business. Student Council by Jeff Walters Gee, I'm glad that I don't have decide on my entire future in one week (sarcasm). University applica- tions go in this week and from one' OACer's point of view - li'm a BIT worried. C'est la vie! Perfect, timing for a dance to shake those frustrations out! This Thursday (Friday's a P.D. Day) at 8:00 p.m. - we're havin g a get loose 'and get'funky November dance, and Clarke - you're învited! Net much else is happening with the student council.

Last week the Senior Boys travelled te Belleville for the Central Ontario Championships. Clarke easily made it to the finals whecre they faced Quinte Christian'H.S. Clarke won the first game 15,9 and ran into trouble early in the second game as they faced a 10-0 deficit. Clarke didn't give up and fought hard, Clarke eventually lost but the score was 15-10. In the third game it was obvious who had more endurance, the long second game had taken its toîl on Quinte Christian as Clarke cruised to a 15-3 victory in the third game to take the Central Ontario Championship. Clarke now travels to London for the Provincial cham- pionships th is weekend. Good luck boys! Coming Events Novenber 2lst Poinsetta Sales Begin (Athletic and Music Depts.)
