Have you ever gone to a play and wondered what it would be
like-to be the one on the stage? For the people who have had a
chance to perform in front of an audience, they know what the

_ undescribable natural high is like.

It’s the feeling you get after successfully completing a perfor-
mance. All the time spent has been paid off with a gratifying
response from the audience. You are respected by the audience
and your original feeling of nervousness has disappeared when
you have come a long way from the days you thought you'd

never have your lines memorized.

Not only have you achieved your goal, however. You have
learned many things and gained even more. Your fellow actors,
with whom you’ve worked are now new friends. You have gained
self-confidence and some very useful experience. Any previous
feelings of shyness have now been threatened by your ac-
complishment. You have learned how to speak openly and how
to keep yourself organized. You’ve worked well with others and
strived with them to reach your goal. And that’s just a start!

The benefits of drama, theatre arts or acting are many. Almost
everyone has at one time or another pictured themselves on the
stage or on the other side of the television screen. Right there,
you’re using your imagination and that is a key to good acting.

Acting also gives you the chance to express yourself. Many peo- -
ple who haven’t thought of joining an acting program would ac-
tually like it very much. Almost everyone is capable and everyone

should give it some thought.

LETTERS:

I would like to see activities

such as kick boxing, Tae Qwan Do
and Karate in town. Can you help?
(G.C.)

You're right. There are a couple
of Karate clubs in town but we
couldn’t find anything on the other
two sports. You can contact Jeff
Dilley of the Terrace Amateur
Boxing Club at 635-7040 if you’re
interested in boxing, Joseph
Duguay at 635-9824 to find out

about Do Shin Bushido Kai, Roy
Atrill of the Yellowhead Karate
Club at 635-9854, Norm Goodlad
of the Terrace Karate Club will
talk to you about Chito-Ryu if you
phone him at 635-3322, and Jean
Galli can be reached at 635-9316
if your interested in Ju Jitsu and
Judo. This sounds like a pretty
good selection but perhaps there’s
a reader out there interested in
starting a new club.

DURING SPRING BREAK:

FINDING SOMETHING TO DO hasn't been a problem for these guys lately -- they’ re the Avco Jets
bantam hockey team. The group finished with bronze honors at recent regional tournament held

in Terrace.

Q: I’m 16 and my parents still
don't let me go to “R" rated
movies. I do anyway but I don’t
see any reason why they can’t say
"yes" once in a while. Can you
please tcii them these movies are
no different than what’s on TV.

A: You have a few options but
first:a couple of question for you.

Do your parents let you watch
anything and everything that hap-
pens to be on TV? And, if not, do
you know why they don’t? Some
parents feel quite justified in say-
ing "no" to "R" rated movies but if
you're convinced they’re no differ-
ent than what they let you watch at
home perhaps you have a legit-
imate beef. If talking doesn’t get

Poll: what about the rules, and
is there enough to do here?

LAST “WEEK: Should” teens be’

allowed to make their own rules?

Yes -- 33%
I guess so -- 33%
I don’t know -- 33%

THIS WEEK: Is there enough to
_ do in this town?

You can leave your answer - and
any letters, artwork or story ideas

you niight’ have - at any of the
following locations: The Terrace
Review office on Greig Ave.,
Caledonia Senior Secondary,
Skeena Junior Secondary, Thorn-
hill Junior Secondary, Thornhill
_ Elementary, Cassie Hall Element-
ary, Clarence Michiel Elementary,
Uplands Elementary, the Terrace
Public Library, Kermode Friend-
ship Centre, swimming pool or
Danny’s Pool Hall.

AND AFTS § SPRING BREAK:

you anywhere, you might want to
consider inviting one of your par-
ents along the next time your
headed for an "R" rated movie so
they can see one for themselves.

Q: My best friend found a wallet
at the mall with $49 in it. I told -
him to turn it in to the mall office
but he kept the money and threw
the wallet away. What should I

. do? I can’t rat on my best friend.

A: Think of it this way. What if
‘that wallet were yours. Would he
still be your best friend?, Perhaps
you should give a, little thought
‘about who you wander the mall
with. Talk it over with your pare-
nts. They’ll know what to do.
They'll rat on your "best friend"
for you and you'll be off the hook.
