Qiee. Club Qlee Gluh The year 1946-47 has been an out¬ standing one for our Glee Club. Under Mr. Rumbelow’s able direction they have taken part in many programmes, each of which has added something to the glory of a good name. The Glee Club started the season by rendering selections for the Teachers’ Convention. Following this was their splendid contribution to the Commence¬ ment Exercises. ’Midst a host of obliga¬ tions our lively musical director and his enthusiastic group found time to put on a musical evening for students and their parents. The Gyro Club honored the Club twice by asking them to sing, first, at a banquet in the Saskatchewan Hotel and, second, by inviting them to perform in their variety concert, “Stairs for Stars.” Once again our singing students gave a good account of themselves, this time at the Carol Festival held at Metropolitan Church in December. The Christmas Literary meeting would not have been so in keeping with the festive season were it not for selections rendered by the Glee Club and particularly the Hallelujah Chorus sung with time-honored spirit and enthusiasm. The Operetta, another enterprise, has taken time and effort but the students feel rewarded for the work involved by the producing of a fine show. When the Easter Literary meeting and the Musical Festival are over the Glee Club will close their music books for another term. Thoy have set a fine tradition this season— one well worth striving to maintain in future years. The Club washes to offer congratulations and thanks to Mr. Rumbe- low and to Miss Tufts, his able pianist. The Orchestra has spent a busy year, too. The school w as very pleased to hear their Yuletide Medley at the Christmas programme. The w ' ork on the music for the operetta has been intensive but it is a wonderful feeling of accomplishment to have mastered those difficult New Y ' ork scores. Balfour Beacon ’Jrf Page 1,7

Gameta Glut- Do you know where the Camera Club photo labs, are? There is one on the east side of the Auditorium, at the top of the stairs, and one just by the music room, downstairs. The meetings are held once a week every Monday to be exact, in Room 14, and a little discussion is held, then the members start on their printing and developing films under the super¬ vision of Mr. Platt. The members experiment with many different types of photography including photo-flash, flood¬ light, and enlarging. The President, Don Munro, and the Secretary, Nick Nences- cue, have had a job in solving problems on photography. Construction classes were held in the wood working department on making enlargers and printing frames. This club is emphatically a “shoe string” club. Expenses are kept to a minimum. No equipment will be bought where members can make the item themselves. No more members will be admitted to the club this year as it is fairly well crowded already. However, new members will be admitted after the summer holidays. The club now has a membership of 24, the largest since its inception in 1942. This organization is growing better every year, and why not? There are few more fascinating hobbies. Stamp, Glut- On the evening of Tuesday, January 17, 1947, Tech’s stamp enthusiasts assembled in Room 5 to organize a Stamp Club with Mr. Mitchell as the amiable and expert staff adviser. John Moroschan was elected President and Nick Nencescue was given the office of Secretary Treasurer. It was decided to limit the membership to thirty students who might belong to first, second, third or fourth year. As yet the membership is not closed and anyone interested in joining is asked to contact one of the officers. Every Tuesday evening the Club meets to enjoy a programme which promotes an understanding of stamps and to give a greater appreciation of their worth. It is not necessary for prospective members to know anything about stamps or be philatelists in order to join this club. You will be sure to learn all you want under the expert supervision of Mr. Mitchell. Next season we invite more students to share in this enjoyable study The Home of Fine Watches ciuikadouis fynenclt Glut- Le Cercle Frangais Balfour— “Mesdames, Messieurs, il est a present ... .” With these words the C. F. B. gets under way. “Seances” are held regularly every other Monday evening usually in the Alpha Tau room. This year with Miss Clermont as the capable staff adviser the Club got off to a good start. On September twenty-third, the third and fourth year students held an organization meeting in the music room and on October seventh the executive were elected as follows ' President —John Corkis. Secretary Treasurer —Ann Good- murphy. Vice President —Alan Gomez. Social Convener —Marilyn Boyle. There are twenty-one enthusiastic mem¬ bers who share the desire to acquire more fluent French. The programmes consist of singing French songs, listening to French records, games played in French, reading the French newspaper “La Presse,” composing plays and producing skits, perusing the Dupuis catalogue and en¬ joying the occasional social evening. The friendly and interested attitude which prevails at the Club meetings inspires self-confidence thereby enabling all who attend to agree that “les travaux du jour etaient, utiles et agreables.” Page J,8 Balfour Beacon ’J7
