If They Had One More, They Wouldn't Have to Pay G.S.T.I
Over the past few years, the C.C.I. National Inquirer has produced some su- perb features on such topics as 'Students Whose Parents T each a t C.C.I .', 'The Larg- est Family in Attendance at C.C.I.' and 'Identical Twins of Collingwood'.
However, this year a first has been set in the history of Collingwood Collegiate!
Yes, the 'National Inquirer' is able to dis- close that for the first time that there is, not a set of triplets, not quadruplets, but even better . . . A SET OF QUINTUPLETS in attendance at this great school. In fact, at one point in the school year, Mr. Hun- wicks had all five look-alikes in his OAC Geography class. "It was very confusing
at times," confessed this dedicated teacher and coach. "I always thought it was difficult trying to tell those Frye boys apart and there were only 2 of them. Amanda was easy to identify, but those guys . . . thank goodness each of them had a different hair cut!"
GIRL'S HEAD STUCK IN FAUCET
What started out to be a fun day in Mr. Redmond's science class. turned out to be a very scary class for one student. As Beth Laughlin was bending over the sink to retreive some parts from her dissected frog, her head became lodged in the curved faucet. Mr. Maracle was im- mediately sent for as he was the safety authority and would know how to handle such an emergency. After a great deal of effort, they were unable to pry the girl's head loose.
It was at this point that Mr. Redmond pointed out one of his lessons from the previous week. If metal is heated, it is able to be bent! After heating the tap with a blow torch from Mr. Maracle's welding shop, it was able to be bent enough to allow Beth to free her head. It was noted, how- ever, that throughout the ordeal, Beth always kept a smile on her face.
