PSS music happenings The musical scene at Penetanguishene _Seco- ndary School has really been hopping lately. Students are madly preparing for a number of musical events that are scheduled to appear for this week. | Tonight the school concert band is holding its annual spring concert. The program is _ ex- tremely varied with selections ranging from Beethoven to Michel Legrand. The action gets underway at 8 p.m. and tickets are $1.50 at the door. The P.S.S. Dance Band meanwhile has been busy rehearsing for their Music of the Forties Dance at the Midland Civic Centre on Friday Owl talk May 19 No one can claim that , Katherine and Larry McKeever '"'don't give a hoot"' for conservation. Their owl rehabilitation centre in Vineland, Ontario is famous throughout North America. Although they specialize in owls, they accept all birds of prey that are injured. Many birds are subsequently released to the wild while the incurable are retained for a captive breeding program. Their primary aim is to rehabilitate native North American species although no raptorial bird from any country is refused. The McKeevers have "resolved to avoid the pitfalls of most so-called sanctuaries where in- jured birds are accepted but given no real treat- ment."' They treat injured birds in various ways, following up with hunting therapy before release to the natural environment. Winners of various 'grants and conservation Pw eared: Ss", the McKeevers have often appeared on television. On Thursday, May 19 at 8:00 they will give an illustrated talk about their work to the Midland-Penetang Field Naturalists' Club at the Wye Marsh Wildlife Centre.

McTague tells nurses alumnae of Detox Centre works by Rena Bell The Community Registered Nurses Alumnae were confronted with a sickness unlike that encountered in their daily routine and yet it has proven to be the third greatest killer of, all diseases. At their regular monthly meeting held in the H.D.H. Dining Room, Monday May 9th Friday McTague spoke' on alcoholism and the work of the Detox Centre in Orillia. Alcoholism is a sickness with physical, mental and social symp- toms which has no cure but can be arrested. This can only be accomplished through the _ deter- mination of the alcoholic (no gender, age or vocation excluded), to seek out and accept the help that is available. Statistics are shocking and medieval attitudes are changing in the diagnosis of this con- dition. Father McTague has been a driving force, along with Miss Berna Jones, Director of Nur- sing, Soldier's Memorial Hospital and Dr. Finlayson, Psychiatrist, Orillia, in the establish- 'ment and operation of the Detox Centre. It began as a 'Halfway House' for rehabilitation of those released from the Mental Centre or jail. In January '76a L.I.P. grant was received to make it into a Detox Centre. It is a home like at- mosphere' established primarily to keep 'drunks' out of jail not only for economic reasons A 'WEST END' N.I.P.

It is a non medical, non threatening atmosphere staffed by qualified persons, male and female, some who are members of A.A. and understand what it means to be an alcoholic. The centre has an eight bed Chaspra- cs ty ( sometimes _ stretched, especially on weekends) - two female - six male beds. When the L.I.P. grant expired in May '76 the staff carried on volun- tarily rather than let it close. Soldier's Memorial Hospital had provided the If insects are making a home of your garden...

Presently they are faced with a similar situation but Father McTague feels quite certain the Centre will not close.

The future depends on it. About a third of Ontario's electricity is gener- _ ated by burning fossil fuels... coal, oil, natural gas. The price of all these natural resources is increasing rapidly. The price of coal, for example, has tripled over the last five years. Higher fuel costs inevitably show up in the price you pay for electricity. Save electricity, and you'll save money. You'll also be helping to conserve dwin- dling natural resources for other important uses... transportation, agriculture, chemicals.
