When you're in Miami, you simply must visit the fabulous summer resort, Bill Beach, by a designer of the same name. Chuck Allen vacations there every winter. In the summer he loafs in California, and in the winter, Florida. Ray Burkett had an interesting time while travelling on the train the other day. The conductor looked at him as though he hadn't paid, so Ray looked right back as though he had. Bertha Andersen has become her own boss. At the office she can start any time before seven and stop any time after six. Pete Kinvig is now an eminent band leader and composer. Even Bill Kanewischer's singing his latest hit Give Me a Simple Wife. Also in the musical world we find Ida Hedlund and her Medicine Hat Conservatory of Music. Many people have obtained their L.S.M.F.T. degree from this music centre. In the medical field the class of '47 is well represented. Marg Lyon and Betty Gant have certainly made names for themselves in the Dr. Kildare Memorial Hospital. They have very important work in the kitchen-Betty washes the dishes and Marg dries. At the same hospital Karen Mathieson is the anaesthetist. It's so nice and quiet. Everyone in this hospital has heard of Doc Elder. He's the only one they know who can take out your tonsils and play Pennsylvania 6-5000 on the sax, at the same time. Helen Mary McNichol is now the Russian ambassador to Nicaragua. They can't understand what she's saying and she can't understand what they're saying-so the Foreign Ministers conference goes on. Mike Chomik has become a very wealthy man shipping machine guns to the United Nations Assembly Debates. And Irene Lewis has changed her name because people were giving her dirty looks every time she bought a ton of coal. Norman Mauch has become a Voyageur of the Rods - ever since Mr. Cuyler told him about Hobohemia. Lloyd Flaig and Anne Hopkins have a marvellous Biology Laboratory, one of the most modern in the world. One of their minor assistants is someone called Lapp. Ever hear of her? Budd Whiticar has designed some of the very latest houses. His rumpus rooms are marvellous. His slogan? You, too, can have a bowling alley in your basement. And Don Fraser has become general manager of the Dominion Fruit Company. What about me? Well, on the corner of Backwater Street and Chinatown Avenue, you'll find a little booth with this sign on it: YOUR FUTURE told by MME. BRINKHURST A Prophecy for a Free Meal -J . Brinkhurst. 14

DON FRASER - Six foot two with eyes of blue, describes Don. While his golf may be above par, he can get along fine with Audrey. His ambition is to become postmaster- general and the way he throws around those mail bags he'll soon have the job cinched. JACQUIE, BRINKHURST - With- out Brink and her wisecracks, school would be a lot duller As a leading character in our annual plays, vice-president of the Stu- dents, Union, and head of the Radio Committee, not mentioning algebra and French, Jacquie's time is well spent. RAY BURKETT-Besides being one of the school's top athletes and everybody's friend, Ray is the chief liaison officer between the student body and the teachers. His ambi- tion is to teach people to be like him. MAY MORRISON-May, a shy, quiet lass from Orion, plans on going to Normal. Her unique way of explaining things is really some- thing. She has a wonderful time in English. EDDIE BACK-This is the guy who, no matter whether he's at school or on his way there, seems to be late for preliminary period. He is also the handyman for the Dramatics Club. MARGARET LYON - Marg is well known for her book-borrowing abil- ities. Her patient manner will come in handy when she becomes a nurse. She and Bertha are in- separable pals. 16
