Newspaper work in Balfour is a big- scale activity. The staff under the capable editorship of Ilaria Francis receive assignments, and at once are on the job of covering the school. They visit hockey, basketball, and rugby games, interview celebrities, dig up gossip, take pictures, draw cartoons, get form news and generally garner the happenings of the school. When all the material is turned in, a dummy is made of the paper and it is Time: Seven-thirty. Place: The Alpha Tau Room of the Balfour Technical School. It is in these comfortable surroundings that Balfour’s industrious Cercle Francais Balfour meets every first and third Tuesday. Yes-—Le Cercle Francais Balfour, with twenty members, convinced that French is fun and out to prove it! This group represents various forms from Third and Fourth year and Special classes and is sponsored by Miss Clermont. Each meeting finds the members enjoying an evening of conversational French and making use of their increasing knowledge of that language. After the formal opening of the meeting by the president, Allan Gomez, they continue with an interesting program. French skits are acted out, French songs are sung, and Electrical Appliances for The Home ELfCTRIC then ready for the printers. Taken to the printer, a proof is made and returned to the Editor who proofreads it and makes any changes necessary. Back to the printer again for the final stage— publishing. Distribution is then taken care of by the Business Manager. The “Balforum” has reached all corners of the earth, as far as Hawaii, and in return we have received many papers from these places. Five issues of Tech’s paper have been published which have pleased students and at the same time maintained the standard that is worthy of Balfour. games are played. Their understanding of French is deepened through reading the French paper La Presse, listening to different selections from the French record library, and for the more ambitious members by writing short plays. These evenings alternate with programs of a more social nature where a lunch, pre¬ pared by the social committee, Bernice Zosiak and Kelly Krammer, is enjoyed. The executive of Le Cercle Francais Balfour elected at the first meeting, September 22, was as follows: Honorary President—Miss Clermont. President—Allan Gomez. Secretary—Trudy Woldrich. Treasurer—David Bing-Wo. Social Committee—Kelly Krammer, Bernice Zosiak. ZIPPER BRIEF CASE Made to Order Our Own Make of A-l Grain Leather. Zippers sewn into Baggage and Gar¬ ments.
