SCHREIBER, ONTARIO WHY? The torch was aglow As disaster struck once more, When eleven Jews fell to their fate As gun-fire flashed at the Olympic gate. Others were sent back to their countries for protec- tion While the terrorists stood their ground Without a thought for what they had done To the teams that had come in peace to compete for their countries. The torch burned bright Through all the tragedy Another event to go down in History Of man's folly Why is it, that people should hate so What wrong had they done To be struck down like a foe Just because of their nationality The games have come to a stop That the matter may be dealt with But what can it do for those who lost their loved ones Unless to help the future athletes? The torch was aglow As disaster struck once more When eleven Jews fell to their fate As gun-fire flashed at the Olympic gate. - Susanne Dzioba. STORK CLUB Born to Mr. and Mrs. Henry Stuart of Terrace Bay, a girl on September 1, 1972. TODAY'S CHILD BY HELEN ALLEN ERR THE TORONTO SUN] SYNDICATE This handsome basketball player is Frank, 13 years old. Basketball is only one of Frank's interests. He plays baseball and hockey and he loves to run, enjoying the competition of track and field events. He has also been taking classes in judo. And for a change of pace he is learning to play the guitar. Slim, healthy Frank is careful about his clothes and his ap- pearance. He has blue eyes, dark blonde hair and fair skin. This lad has had some unsettling experiences which led to a stay in a treatment centre for children with emotional problems. He has now been discharged and the centre feels he is ready for adoption. Frank earnestly wants to have a family of his own. While he waits Frank is in a foster home in the country. The rural life appeals to him very much but he cannot stay there because there is no school suitable for him in the area. Frank needs a special programs class in an elementary school where he can work at several different levels, or a preparatory vocational class. He wants to do well in school but is easily distracted besides finding some subjects very difficult. So he must move. Let us hope it will be to an adoption home where he will have a mother and a father who will give him love, warmth, understanding, stimulation and especially the feeling he really belongs. He should be the youngest in the family and he would like to live in the country. To inquire about adopting Frank please write to Today's Child, Box 888, Station K, Toronto. For general adoption in- formation, ask your Children's Aid Society.
