This year was no exception. A group of about 40, including Lisa- Gaye Shearing of Bayview Fairways, went to Vermont this year. It'was a five»day ex- change trip. The students stayed at Vermontonian homes and report being well fed. They went to a small Vermont school of about 450 students, which was dif- ferent than Thornlea in the sense it was more rigid. The weather was somewhat cold, but then one must remember Vermont is known for its skiing if for nothing else. I understand they feel ashamed of Richard Nixon. This con- trasts from a report of a friend of mine just back from Atlanta, who said the people down there feel he was railroaded out of office.
