3 The Canadian Statesman. Bowmanville, February 5,1986 Section Two B.H.S. NEWS Motherless Girls Receive Guidance from Big Sisters By Laura Silver Last week, B.H.S. had an assembly that centered on a very important topic drinking and driving. Through film and speech, Constable John Logan and Constable Peter Bramma and Wendy Crawford created a thought- provoking seminar. Since Wendy herself is a quadraplegic, a victim of drunk driving, she brought the message across with more impact than what might normally be the case. The bottom line is "Don't drink and drive". Option sheets; Feb. 6 (tomorrow) is the deadline for option sheets. If you haven't yet been able to decide what you want to take, try talking to a guidance counsellor. They will be able to suggest alternatives, etc. And it's finalized! Images in Vogue will be on the Bowmanville stage sometime in April. So don't make any other plans for their night! For ticket information and other specifics, listen to the announcements. O'Neil's experience and pressing defense confused our teams into a 6340 loss.

High scorers for Bowmanville were; Troy Harness (13), Geoff Vandermolen (9) and Scott Webster (9) points. The Midgets lost a close game to O'Neil by a score of 42-33. ' All three B.H.S. teams seem to have lost' their momentum due to the one week exam lay off. Let's hope next week's results are better. final, Bowmanville was against the Eastdale Midget team. Each team had claimed a previous victory over the other and this was the rubber match. Bowmanville started the game very strongly and jumped out to an eight point lead, although Eastdale challenged the point spread a number of • times, Bowmanville never relinguished the lead and won the game 41 to 33. For their three victories the team received the Championship Trophy and each player was given an individual medallion. Sportsline By Eddy Paradis Thursday, January 30th was not a good day for the three B.H.S. boys' basketball teams as they lost all three games to O'Neil. The seniors played a strong game but failed to capitalize on given opportunities. Bowmanville Midgets Boys' Basketball Third Consecutive Tournament Champions The Bowmanville Midget Boys' Basketball team won their third consecutive tournament on Saturday at. Clarke High School. In the first game, they defeated I.E. Welson from Lindsay by a score of 43 to 26. The next game saw Bowmanville face a very tall team from Central High School in Oshawa. Bowmanville worked very hard and came up with a 48 to 32 victory. Next came the Championship game. For the third time in a tournament Co-operative Education By Al Woodlock Three grade 11 students, Joan Quinney, Karen Beavis and Fern Quilliams, along with Brenda Nihill, a grade 10 student, are working at Bi- Way stores in the field of retail merchandising. The girls are learning the basics of the retail sales industry. They have a wide range of duties and are rotated throughout the various departments in the store. Some of the duties are serving customers and promoting sales, folding clothes and organizing stock, developing and installing displays and marketing techniques, unloading and unpackaging stock, placing stock on the racks, pricing stock, cleaning and general utility functions, etc. It is hoped, with experience, that the girls will progress to using the cash register. All four girls hope to stay at B.H.S. until they finish their grade 12 and then possibly look for employment. This experience will help them make decisions regarding retail sales work. Although much too early to tell, it appears that two of the girls are leaning in that direction. Bi-Way stores have been located at the Bowmanville Mall for four years. During this time business has increased and caused a large expansion of the store. Mr. Ed Komar has been the store manager since opening day. Mr. Komar has been associated with the B.H.S. Coop Coop program for three years now and he thinks it is an excellent one. He claims that it benefits him a great deal because he is allowed a free assessment ,of students in terms of their employability. He hires the students that do well, either on a part-time or full-time basis. Students understand that their Co-op program serves as a training period and that employment is possible at the end. We at B.H.S., have had a good relationship with Bi-Way over the years and are looking forward to their continued support. I wish to thank Ed Komar for training and employing many of our students.

The result was never a certainty and the Toros could have as easily lost as won. Penalties made the game difficult for the coaches as they sought to gain an advantage on numerous power play opportunities and kill penalties with their strongest players. This meant that th r '. lines were frequently mixed up especially in the last period. The Toros opened the scoring on a power play when Todd Banks scored assisted by Paul Woodlock. The puck had taken a peculiar bounce and the Bruins goal keeper was unable to control it, leaving a good opportunity for Todd. Jeff Rohr scored a goal from the blue line, he shot as he skated in and the puck passed by the goal keeper's left side net going very quickly, The second period saw plenty of end to end action and the Bruins scored the only goal. This set the stage for the third period which was filled with penalties. Todd scored assisted by Jeff and Paul on a power play. It was a great three way passing play. Todd did very well controlling the puck close to his feet before getting his shot away. The Bruins finished the scoring with the Toros two men short and the Toros players getting very tired, not as tired however, as they would have felt had they lost.
