w 294 LAKESHORE ROAD E ' Tmt.l 1! •tJKX- OAKVILLE 845-5542 MEN ' S WEAR LIMITED Jack Point urges the lieutenant to hire him. Fifth in a series of Gilbert and Sullivan operettas, The Yeomen of the Guard was presented by the Appleby College Dramatic Society in co-operation with St. Mildred ' s-Lighbourn School on April 20, 21, 22. Aside from the technical difficulties involved in the music, The Yeomen of the Guard with its serious plot and characters was a contrast to previous productions , and challenged not only the Director, Mr. DesRoches, but also those students taking part. In order to achieve a high standard, many months of preparation were required. At the dress rehearsal, the cast played before seventy senior citizens who had been invited by the School to preview the show. The results of the actual performances were gratifying as eleven hundred people turned out over the three night run - a new record for attendance.
