Dunbarton High Plans Two Hops By LARRY LEBLANC DUNBARTON HIGH) Dances at Dunbarton have been very much improved this year. In my last report, I mentioned the Montclaire and Lincolnaire dances. Both proved to be stu- pendous successes. My spy system tells me the dance comuinittee is planning two more dances with top en- tertainment. On Friday, March 13, "Nicky Moore and = the Sceptres" wiil provide the en- tertainment, and on April 17, "Richie Knight and the Mid- Knighters" will perform at the| 'with it." school, | away Wild Art World | At Donevan High By BILL LOWTHER An Oshawa high school teach- er is giving students a chance to do something wild -- and get with it. Parents are amazed at the art their sons and daughters produce in James Kraemer's class at Donevan Collegiate. He asked teer agers to paint a murder scene and had "wonder- ful'? results. A mother later told him the idea was "hor- rible". Kraemer, art director at Don- evan for six years, encourages abstracts and turns art into an adventure in the classroom. He says: "I want students to express emotion. In my class they all have a chance to do something wild and get away St. Joe's Studies Student Dropouts By EILEEN MENARD (St. Joseph's High) QUESTION: Why do students drop out of school?

Some claim the courses are uninteresting and boring but this excuse is just an escape. Learning is hard work and when a person masters it, it is inter- esting. When. students think the work is boring they are admit- ting that they themselves are too lazy to put forth the effort and sacrifice. necessary. - - ANNE DE BEAUPRE$9'c I think it is lack of interest 'in classes, It depends on their own view-point in school and it influenced tremendously by General Motors here in Osh- awa. It pays high wages to people with low education. Many young people on tht line have, maybe, onl ya Grade 9 or 10 education and they are at. tracted by money. { sympathize with them. MARY WARD 1038 Oh, they drop out because some -feel teachers are against them. Some methods of teach- ing are ancient. There are chances of trouble at home. This student should be persuad- ed to stay in school. He must put forward more effort. At the time he wants to quit he does not see the consequences. It is too bad. Yes, I feel sorry for them. . TED MARKS 160A If they can't do it, they should get out and quit wasting time and money. If they can do it, students should stay as long as they can and maybe go on to university if they are able to do so. e |at fault.

Beatles Head House League At Dunbarton During the week, the Celtics beat the Mid-Knights to gain 2nd place in the house league basketball. On Friday the victorious Cel- tics clashed with the Beatles but this time the Beatles emenged as victors to claim Ist place in the house league basketball. Friday afternoon, the Beatles met the rade 9 All-Stars, the Grade § All-Slans won by de- fault. Ore hundred and forty teen- agers who take the art course at Donevan are asked to show their feelings in a mask 'dur- ing their Grade 1 studies, Kraemer said: 'The masks usually turn out grotesque be- caus kids liké grotesque things. "In a recent exam many of them did the Kennedy assassin- ation. When I set a murder scene project results were won" derful. "Students went all out. You can get the best work on this sort of theme.' In some projects -- Kraemer himself an expressionist painter -- tells students to de- stroy form and use shapes and color to show their feelings. A button might be sewn to a paiting to represent a hole. "It gives the picture reality," he says. Many students do not like Pic- casso or the current trene in Pop Art. Says Kramer: 'They are not exposed to painters like Piccasso ang don't know what is going on." What is the general feeling among parents about this sort of art, Kraemer was asked? He replied: " Alot of work does not get taken home. Par- ents would not understand it. This is a revolt from the sort of thing they did at school. "J don't think parents appre- ciate abstract art. They are amazed but they are not op- posed." YOUNG _PEOPLE!
