Forbes Kennedy Day
Proves Big
MONTAGUE The Forbes Kennedy day at Montague yes- terday proved a huge success and many students of the schools here will long remember his visit to their school. He svoke briefly then answered questions thrown at him by the students. He stressed the necessity of ed- ucation cautioning the children to listen to their teachers who were their educational coaches. “If you won't listen to these coaches you will not listen to hockey, ball or any other coach- es. Thus you will fai!
**Education is the one load you should carry If your marks are good, hockey will help, if they are low you had better cut the hockey,” he cautioned
Among questions asked was: who wil! win the nationa! league this year? He stated he felt the Canadians could come up with the trophy: who is the best hoc- key player. Hull or Howe”? He advised Howe was the best all- time hockey player and had the edge on Hull as a team organ- izer
At the elementary school he was greeted by Brian Peardon
one of the younger students, who addressed Mr. and Mrs. Kennedy. He then led the stu-
dents in three cheers for the Is- land hockey hero. KNEW HOCKEY FACTS Gilbert Clements, chairman of the school board, spoke briefly and handied the question period in which the young students proved they knew their national hockey facts. Shelly Pepler pre- sented a bouquet of red roses to Mrs. Kennedy on behalf of the Y's Men. Following the presen- tation Mrs. Elsie Watterworth,

The weekend culminated with a Union sponsoring a first at SDL, a debate between the candidates. Fach candidate was allowed five minutes for a speech. with a 15 minute quest- ion and answer period following for each office Although not run as efficiently as expected, the debaters did provide a need- ed forum for the issues. It was evident that many questians were planted. and this took something from the debates. Had each candidate been asked to answer the same questions this problem would ‘have been alleviated MANY ISSUES
What were the issues in the campaign’? To some, they were the control of the -executive, apathy among the students, even the efficiency of the council. More realistically, several cap- didates expressed a concern for the Coffee

Tuesday was election day. The weather was mild and clear, just right for voting After the biggest turnout in history registered their vote, the students waited for the results. They ‘were announced a! sup- pertime by Gerry Fitzgerald. For the two major offices, that of president and vice-president, Dave Morton and Herb Murphy went in with huge majorities A star center on the football team. Dave was the firmer vice- president of the Union, and used a straight ‘‘promise to do my best’ appeal for re-election. A native of Georgetown, Herb was class president of the freshman class last year, and brings to the office several years of council experience. NEW EL EGTION
For the office of treasurer, Gene McLaughlin won a close race over Jim Davis, who is the present manager of the Coffee Shop. In the secretarial election, no candidate had enough votes for a clear majority, so another election was held two days later
In this race, Veronica Smith edged out Wes MacAleer by only four votes
The new executive will take over officially on April 1. the meantime, the sophomores, juniors and seniors of next year will elect their incumbent class presidents, whose . term of office will start at the end of the college year.
On Thursday night, the annual two day retreat commenced. The guest speaker was Rev. Eugene Cullinane, who asked for a per- iod of silence and _ reflection. After the events of the pre- « vious week, it wasn’t. such a bad idea at that.
