Many may think that it is an easy task to write a speech of this sort. Two weeks ago I was made valedictorian, and I found out just how difficult writing a valedictory address is. These past two weeks I have wracked my brains, I have written quite a bit, I have taken much criticism, and I have thrown many would-be speeches out the window. Yet I stand before you all today — hoping that what I have to say is satisfactory. After careful deliberation I have finally distovered what it is that i Pp . It repr something that we have all encountered at some time in our lives. Graduation symbolizes love — a love that we, the grads of 1986, feel in many ways. First of all, love is what we feel towards our friends. These friends have laughed with us, cried with us, rs d us on our and scolded us when we messed up. Now that we are parting from many of our friends, we feel a different love — love as a sorrow that many of us may never see each other again. I love you all, my fellow grads. Another love is that which we feel towards our teachers. Strange as it may sound, we really do love you. You gave us homework on long weekends. You surprised us with quizzes on Friday afternoons. You kicked us out of class, even when what we did was not all that bad. But you were also friends to us. If we tried to talk to you like human beings, we found that you too can be human and kind. Even though you often infuriated us (as we did you), you came through with your friendship. Thanks teachers We really do love you. We also feel a love toward our school, Stanley Humphries. This also may sound just a bit strange to some. But we have spent 25 per cent of our last four years here. We played on school teams for the honor of the school as well as for the honor of ourselves. We took part in student council, intramurals, tricycle races, dress-up days.,We attended or played in basketball tournaments — even on weekends. So although many of us say that we dislike school, we actually do love this place. Parents are also recipients of the love possessed by the class of 1986. You have done an infinite amount of work for us. You gave us rides whenever and wherever we wanted. You encouraged us to do our best. You have taught us such values as caution, friendship, discipline, and money. You punished us when we came home too late. You did everything we wanted, even more sometimes, because you in turn love us. You actually deserve more than our love; but, love is the most we can give you in return. Along with our love of friends, love of teachers, love of our school, and love of our parents, there is one more love which cannot be forgotten — love of ourselves. No matter what happens in the future, we are wasting life if we are not happy with ourselves. (My fellow grads, continue to strive to do well for friends, for parents, for society. However, above all, we must please ourselves first. We must decide if what we are doing is right. We must do what we want to do. After all, if we cannot please ourselves, then who ean we please? We must love ourselves — for our own sakes. I have attempted to illustrate to all that love is the dominant emotion that comes with graduation. I hope that I have at least somewhat succeeded. My friends, money is not what makes the world go round. Money BRIAN VOYKIN . . . 1986 SHSS valedictorian merely hinders the motion of the world, pushes it the wrong way. My friends, love is what makes the world spin in the right direction. Maybe some day we may be able to get it spinning the right way again. ‘Thank you.

Marcos, whose 20-year rule collapsed amid charges he tried to steal a presidential election from Aquino, fled to Hawaii, where he lives today in a rented beachfront house. Aquino's government claims Marcos and his wife, Imelda, amassed $5 billion U.S. to $10 billion in “ill gotten” wealth. Marcos has denied those charges, but Aquino's government has pushed ahead with plans to recover the money and re- duce the Philippines’ large foreign debt.

Canada must beef up security - «KITCHENER, ONT. (CP) — Canada may not have a serious problem with “home- grown” terrorism, but it must continue to beef up its protection from international attacks, says the commander of Britain's New Scotland : Yard. “Terrorism is a worldwide these days,” Sir 35th annual convention of the Ontario Association of Chiefs of Police on Tuesday. “Every country is at risk from inter. national terrorism.” Newman, 59, said Canada is fortunate it doesn’t have an ongoing battle with home based terrorist groups. This is in sharp contrast to Eng land and Northern Ireland, where attacks by the Irish Republican Army are com monplace. British police at London's Heathrow Airport, for in stance, are armed with sub- machine guns, he said. The Canadian government must continue to develop systems to keep out interna. tional terrorists, said New. man, head of London's 45,000-member police force, of whom 18,000 are civilians. “The main preventive strat egy depends on a good in telligence system that's well. tuned and alert. “Security services in Can ada have kept an eye on world events and now update the system for every even. tuality.” There must be a balance that ensures the security of pasengers but doesn't par alyse the operation of air ports, he said, adding that the cost of providing protec tion from terrorists cannot be considered too high. “The prime directive of every government is to pro- tect the citizens. It's one (cost) that must be borne.” Newman, closely guarded during his stay in Kitchener, was to speak to 240 delegates at a closed session today about the police response to terrorism in Britain. A graduate in law, New man has worked through the ranks of the British police since joining in 1947 and was. knighted in 1978 for his years of service.
