22 The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville. April 5,1989 ûnd Events tit OuturioHydro Speaker Explains -Nuclear Energy to Interclub Bowmanville H.S. by Neil Dudley As the festive 'March Break' holidays drew to a close, thousands of Bowmanville Bowmanville students returned, unhappily, unhappily, to embark upon school once more. This lacklustre lacklustre occasion for the students students and, I would assume, teachers as well, initiated what would surely seem to most to be a long, drawn out four-day school week. As the school began to attempt attempt a revival of school spirit to arouse the somewhat somewhat depressed students, the announcements began to roll across the P.A. system with news of upcoming school events. However, one such event seemed to stand out. It concerned the formation formation of a girls' rugby team. This new, intriguing idea appealed to many of the school's females as they had their first meeting this past Thursday. It was an extremely extremely well-received idea as approximately 25 female students eagerly showed up awaiting to play, with still many others throughout the school interested in partici- , pating. The planned schedule schedule includes competitive rugby rugby play against various other lugh schools' female teams in the area as well as in Niagara Falls. However, this formation of a girls' team is still in its initial stages with one main obstacle obstacle staring them in the face; who will coach them?

They do seem to be sure of one thing and that involves the school's excellent excellent reputation for rugby, past and present, and that it will surely prevail in the organization organization of a first-rate, first-ever girls' rugby team at Bowmanville High School. Staying on the topic of excellent excellent rugby play at B.H.S., our very successful boys' tour teams recently returned returned from Wales on a rather successful tour. Earlier Earlier in the 1988-1989 school year a Welsh rugby tour team was here in Bowmanville Bowmanville with resounding triumph triumph and the local boys' trip to Wales completed the exchange. Although our players did not fare as well as hoped, an enjoyable time was had by all. The senior rugby team played three games while the junior team played four times and even though their various opponents opponents triumphed eveiy time the boys feel they scored a victory with respect to all of the students involved in the exchange, with special thanks being extended to Mr. Winder whose presence has been of key importance to B.H.S.'s greatly respected reputation over the years. Congratulations on yet another another excellent tour. Another interesting event currently in the works at Bowmanville High School is the 'Camp Enterprise' trip. This 3 1/2 day event-is designed designed to inform students about various business facets facets from various community business owners which students students may not be aware of yet through simply business education. Even though only five students from each high school in the Northumberland Northumberland & Newcastle Board of Education are eligible for this extravaganza - this year being held at Trent University University - all students were encouraged encouraged to apply. It begins May 11th and runs inclusively inclusively until May 14th. To use apply in a different different sense, students should also not forget to get out and apply early for summer jobs as they are. going quickly..

Ontario's demand for electrical energy grew by 5.9 per cent lost year, according to an Ontario Hydro spokesman spokesman who addressed a meeting meeting of Bowmanville service clubs last week. Dennis McQuade, technical technical manager at the Darlington Darlington Nuclear Generating Station, Station, noted that last year's growth would require the entire annual output of one of Darlington's four nuclear reactors.

This represents one million more households which will require electricity in the province within the next 20 years. Naturally, Ontario Hydro is expecting nuclear energy to play an important role in meeting the need for additional additional power. "Nuclear power power is not the perfect answer. But considering the environmental environmental alternatives, we can live with its limitations," Mr. McQuade stated. He noted that by 1992 Hydro will be using nuclear energy to generate about 60 per cent of its electricity. "During the 1990s, the nuclear nuclear power program will be a major contributor to the reduction in acid rain in Ontario," Ontario," Mr. McQuade added. In addition to looking at Hydfo's plans for the future, Mr. McQuade discussed the 50-year history of nuclear power in the province of Ontario. Ontario. Some of the milestones included the year 1945 when the first- experimental reactor reactor began operating at Chalk River. By 1953, Ontario Hydro was conducting a feasibility study to see if nuclear power plants could produce electricity. electricity. And in 1957 a detailed detailed design of a commercial commercial power station was under way. The first electricity from a nuclear power plant was produced at Rolphton in 1962. By 1964, pit the flans were announced announced for the construction of a nuclear generating station station at Pickering and by 1973 the first of the four (and later eight) Pickering reactors was in operàtion. In 1977, the Darlington Nuclear Generating Station was approved and it is slated slated to produce its first electricity electricity later this year. Canada's success in the construction and operation of nuclear generating stations stations is not always fully realized realized even in Canada. Mr. McQuade pointed out that in 1987 Canada had two of the top six reactors in the world. And, when measured measured in terms of lifetime performance, performance, eight of the top 15 tne ' ' " The guest speaker pointed pointed out that anti-nuclear groups do serve a useful purpose purpose in the debate over nuclear nuclear energy. "They provide us with considerable useful input which makes us a bet ter company in the long run," he said. But he encouraged his audience to form opinions of nuclear energy based on logic logic rather than emotion.
