penology, indeed in their wildest dreams - consider vol- leyball a fit punishment for convicted criminals. But take curling for instance - there's a sport that could be used to punish sec- continued from page 2 opening ceremony the players conducted before each match. It seems that all 12 starting convicts would walk the 60° feet in single file from one backcourt to-the other while munching on chocolate torte. Really. They referred to this ceremony as "a cake walk through the court system." In the end it was their undoing. When confronted with details of the volleyball pro- gram the regional manager of Metro's correctional services said: "You can't have people having fun." I don't know this manager but with this kind of priority I'm betting he's a recent transfer from Revenue Canada. As a strong proponent of the theory that the punishment must adequately fit the crime, I find a program of weekly volleyball, serving as the penalty for convicted felons absolutely ludicrous. It shakes my belief in com- mon sense and justice to think that the Ministry of Correctional Services could - in their cockeyed vision of la Essential Qualifications: As per Ontario cate - immunized Education gram Language not essential. to: Ni The McCausland Hospital Ambulance Service requires (2) part-time AMBULANCE DRIVER/ATTENDANTS - at least 18 years of age Ambulance Act - valid and subsisting class F driver's license . - C.P.R. card basic rescuer - standard & advanced first aid - restricted radio telephone operator's certifi- - free of driving and/or criminal record tetanus, and hepatitis B - Ontario Secondary School Graduation Diploma or equivalent and enrolled or willing to seek enrolment in a certified EMCA pro- - fluency in English language essential - fluency in French language an asset €xperience as a volunteer ambulance driver preferred but Please submit detailed resume on or before April 17, 1991 Director of Human Resources The McCausland Hospital 2 Cartier Drive Terrace Bay, Ontario POT 2W0 (807) 825-3273 ext. 106 ~ against polio, diphtheria, , OPRDOOE IN MEMORIAM BAXTER, Betty - In loving memory of a dear mother and grandmother, who passed away April 10, 1988.

I say we should take the net and volleyball away from con- victed felons and make them sweep long patches of clean ice and wear flat pieces of felt on their heads while they do it.

I say introduce curling at the penitentiary level as a deterent to all those on the out- side who may even now be considering committing a vile and disguising crime. And I say for second offenders, make them watch curling on television. If we can't have capital pun- ishment in this country, then give us the next best thing.
