Hébert.performed a \u201c*Rap\u2019\u2019 with the theme being Peace and Justice.Also, Pepe Mendoza interpreted some melodies from folk songs in Peru and J net August and Paul Lahache told some

Olympic sports teams have their specialists in jumping, lifting and running, so the Intellectual Olympic teams have specialists in mathematics.science, art, drama, engineering, computers, current events and debating.Last year CVR swept the championship in a pioneering, four-school league including H.S.Blllings and high schools from Cowans- ville and Pointe Claire.This year, teams from Longueuil and Lennoxville have joined the fun and organizers hope that the trend will continue, making the Intellectual Olympics a province-wide, interscholastic competition.Bob Douglas, Principal of the Massey-Vanier Regional High School in the Eastern Townships invented the idea.He said that when the CBC quiz show, \u2018\u2018Reach for the Top,\u2019 went off the air.it left a void.But he believed that the show was too one- dimensional, being based on memory alone.\u2018\u2018Having the quickest recall skills won't help you build a bridge.\u201d he said.His formula for the Intellectual Olympics includes a well-rounded meny of events and each team member must compete in at least tv/o different events.Placing academic talents on an equal level of recognition with athletic achievement is the common goal of the volunteer teachers who have made the Intellectual Olympics possible.One principal said, \u2018It's nice to see patriotic cheers for young people who previously would have been labeled bookworms or egg heads Photo: Phit Norton Bryan Pearce and Soukwan Chan, of CVR*s Intellectual Olympic team, steady fire bricks and a cinder block upon their engineering entry as teacher

hours of Intense competition.Teacher Ted Sparks introduced the enginecring competition.a traditional favorite with the audience.Each team had been given the same materials and asked to construct a

some cinder blocks backstage in case we need more weight.\" he chuckled.As the bricks went on two by two, the participants were asked to wait five seconds.as the weight fitters must do in Olympic\u2019 competition.As LeMoyne added, its second set of bricks.the structure began to creak and gave way on one side.The CVR engineers, Soukwan Chan and Bryan Pearce.continued to add their bricks higher and higher upon the newspaper and popsicle stick tower.Ted Sparks, rubbed his hands excitedly as he ran backstage for the cinder block.The audiance roared when CVR was declared victorious with a total ol 41.66 kilograms to lLeMoyne d'Iberville's 7.8.This was the fourth engineering structure for Chan and Pearce.Their now famous puramidal cgg protector and their inclined ramp which won the chiam- pronship last year are already housed in CVR's trophy case.Principal Bruce Paterson told them then tower could go in too, without the cinder block.\u201cThe trouble with other

near Chicou- timi.Quebec sent tremors across eastern Canada and was felt by thousands of Northeastern Americans.It occurred at 6:46 p.m.and measured 6.0 on the Richter scale.A quake with a magnitude of 4.7 had been measured in the same district only two days before, leading some people to wonder if the trend might mean à major tremor would be felt later.Seismologists did predict a smaller shake as the carth readjusts but the magnitude of Friday's was judged very unusual by the experts who said 1t was the larges in that part of Canada in the past half-century.Chateauguay Valley residents may recall the carth- quake which was centered in Blue Mountain Lake, N.Y.just a few ycars ago which was felt locally early in the morning. 2 \u2014 THE GLEANER \u2014 NOVEMBER 30, 1988 This and That in

NIMBY.Not In My Back Yard determines where the dump won't go.So it seems that those who didn\u2019t want old tires to come to Franklin.should have cried louder.before the fact.Now.headlines in La Presse show Lac des Pins Campground fighting the tire dumpers and a headline in the Saturday edition reads \u2018\u2018Valleyfield region inherits tire dump.\u201d Is this to be our new image?Arc the efforts of our Chambers of Commerce and touristic developers to be soiled by the sight of passing garbage trucks and mountains of society's discards?Only a handful of promoters will benefit andmany more will suffer if the Valley of the Chateauguay becomes the Valley of Garbage.P.N.100 years ago (from the Canadian Gleaner, Thursday, Nov.29, 1888).ST.ANICET Many families have left this parish, during the past three or four months, for the West.The Bohemian left here on Thursday morning, Nov.22nd, for the last time this season.She goes into winter quarters at Sorel.Since Dr.Joseph Legault left for Minnesota in September, there has been no doctor in this village.Firewood is very scarce in the village und very dear, roo.Mr.Masson is selling poplar for $3 a cord.There was no coal brought to the village this fall.Mr.Masson's barge-load failed to reach here on account of the break in the Cornwall canal, causing much disappointment.ADVERTISEMENT Handmade boots with felts for winter.Customers who got these boots from me last year, say they are by far the best for all kinds of outdoor work and weather, of anything vet produced in winter feet wear.Keep the feet warm in coldest weather.drv, if rain or soft snow, and are light in weight; can be made to any measure.Calfskin Mins with French Calf fronts, always on hand.Price 65 cents.50 years ago (from The Huntingdon Gleaner, November 30, 1938).SEWER Good progress is being made on the Chateauguav Street sewer in Huntingdon.A gang of 71 men are plowing right ahead and making good time under foreman Donald McNair.Mr.Daniel A.Moody is the timekeeper.The ditch is being dug quite deep at the lower end of Chateauguay Street and at one point will be at least 17 feet deep, it is stated.While the men were busily engaged in digging down deep an observer asked them if they had * \u201chit gold ver.One of the men replied that the nearest thing to that they had found was a one cent piece which was found about two feet beneath the surface.It was so rusted away that it could not be determined how old it really was.CHRISTMAS CHEER One load of alleged \u201cChristmas cheer\u2019\u2019 came to a sudden stop in the early hours of Fridav morning near Havelock when a smugglers car went out of control and hit the ditch.The car, with a reported load of nearly 300 gallons of illicit alcohol, was thundering down the road about a half mile north of Havelock when it suddenly careened into the ditch, hitting a telephone pole and breaking it in two.The car was damaged con- siderablev and some of the 300 gallons were spilled over the ground.The man or men apparently feared arrest and hastened off to safety.Mr.R.J.Bourdon, the customs officer at Cove Hill, was notified and he took posse sion.This is the season of the year when loads of illicit alcohol destined for Montreal and points north are said to be more numerous than at any other season.The cheapness of the drink and its fiery potency makes it desirable to the type of customers who seek it.Ormstown by Jean cEwen » 820-2704 Service on Sunday evening.A nominating committee was appointed.Ruth Towns and Isabel Kerr, and the program committee is YOU'RE A * P| x OH YEA YOU'RE A TO IT'S ALL RIGHT THEY'RE JUST PRETENDING THEY'RE POLITICIANS !

3) Limit the number of truck transport: 4) Re-design our food and waste systems; 5) Cut out all manufacturing that can\u2019t be free of harmful wastes.If there is a will, there is a way.but there are many hurdles in the way.So let\u2019s not only live for today.otherwise.the problems of tomorrow will be unsolvable.When railroads are lifted and more highways built, I think we are going down the wrong road.Over 2000 miles of tracks have been lifted in Nova Scotia in the past few years.In Prince Edward Island.service has been totally removed since the 30th of August 1988 and the rail system in Newfoundland has been halted.The reason being is that they are supposedly too costly to operate and the present lack of use.I leave you with this question.How will we account for the pollution buildup and the huge cost of revamping the transportation system?George A.McKell, Ormstown, Quebec.: MINT ALT RIT HINLINLIM LI NDI NIN LIS Births and Deaths ve Cards of Thanks, In Memoriams, Marriage Notices, Engagements, Announcements WRIGHT - Nick and Lesley (née Mcintyre) are pleased to announce the birth of their first child, Jacqueline Lauren at 2:15 a.m.on November 8th, 1988 weighing 9 lbs.6 oz.at Grace Hospital, Vancouver.First grandchild for Mary McIntyre of Vancouver.First great- grandchild for Malcolm Mcintyre of Allan\u2019s Corners and Howick, Quebec.First granddaughter for Eric and Erma Wright of Toronto.ORR - Leslie and Debbie (née Roach) are proud to announce the arrival of a daughter, Shaina Reann, on October 28th, 1988 weighing 8 lbs.1-1/2 oz.at Calgary, Alberta, a sister for Travis and Nevin.Proud grandparents are Matthew & Ruth Roach of Calgary, Alberta and Hugh & Margaret Orr, Barrington, Quebec.HOUSTON - At the Regina General Hospital, Nov.12th, 1988, in her 98th year, Florence Bowland, wife of the late J.Stewart Houston, formerly of Tyvan, Saskatchewan.She is survived by her five children.Janet (late Leonard) Mark, Evelyn (late Walter) Sutherland, Allan, John (late Velma) and Clinton Houston;

received classroom instruction on environmental principles and explored the countryside of Southwest Quebec on weekend fieldtrips.The ecology, or the natural community, of the Cha- teauguay Valley has been shaped by glaciation, the Champlain Sea, effects of climate and soils, and by the impact of man's activities.Classroom discussions also touched on the issues of acid rain, toxic waste, agricultural chemicals.river pollution, and others.The group discussed what can be done about such problems such as tree planting, recycling of garbage, and involvement in the various environmental groups of this region.Three weekend outings gave the students a firsthand look at the various natural communities of the region and the hosts/landowners gave insight into how the land looked before Europeans colonized it.NS > A YRS A» Jef NUTS \u2018 +, Ta [i The Local Ecology class visited Lake St.Francis.The first visit was to the Covey Hill Gulf.A 2.5 \u2014 mile walk from the U.S.side led
