Smart Clothes for the College Man iafou i Piutti+u}, Club The Balfour Technical School Printing Club has always been one of the most active clubs in the school. This year has been no exception. Besides the usual run of activities (the printing of dance tickets, programs, Christmas cards, etc.) the club is always open to new ideas. An experiment was made in printing pennants on felt, an idea springing from the fertile mind of our instructor, Mr. Imbery. The biggest job that the Printing Club has ever undertaken, is the printing of tickets and programs for Tech’s annual Operetta. Also all those pink time table cards that you see floating around, as well as the room time tables and seating cards, are done by the Balfour Printing Club. One of the better pressmen is Harold Hameluck of 3G. With the exception of the press which still belongs to Mr. Imbery, the Student Council has purchased all the equipment, many changes and improvements in the arrangement of which have been made for easier access. The Club also holds annual socials, of which one has already been held in the Alpha Tau Room, with twenty-six persons attending. The Club is looking forward to another happy gathering to keep up the good friendship and club spirit. Officers are as follows: President—Jake Suderman. Vice President—Nick Petrinack. Secretary—Allan Nelson. Treasurer: Don Munro. We sincerely hope that next year again, this club will be as active as it has been in 1947-48. lie . 7 . S. Stamp, Glut The stamp enthusiasts of Tech meet every Wednesday night in the Cafeteria, to swap stamps, to talk about recent issues, and to pick up new hints on stamp collection. These hints are easy to obtain from their supervisor and fellow collector, Mr. Mitchell, who has a beautiful collection of Canadian, Austral¬ ian and New Zealand stamps. There are at present sixteen members, all boys, in the club. However, more members, including girls, are welcome. Elections were held after Christmas. Nick Petrinack was elected President and Herb Kruger, Secretary Treasurer. In February a display of stamps was put in the corridor so that the Club’s collection could be admired by the Tech students. The display consisted of British Colonies, German and Canadian issues, as well as many others. The philatelists of this club have had a very fine year, for there were treasure hunts, auctions and many other ways by which they enlarged their collection. Ware’s Wares Wear Well 1717-19 SCARTH ST. So- ty ' 6. A sewing club for commercial students is something new. Last fall twenty-five girls from Form II, who hoped to be experts on the typewriter when they finished their commercial course, also made up their minds that they would master the art of sewing. With the help of one of their teachers they were able to form a sewing club with four sewing instructors selected from the Dressmaking class. These young ladies, Eleanor Mac¬ Donald, Lois Johnson, Marion McLean and Mildred Keyser, have given generously of their time and interest and are making the So-Y’s a club worthy of the name (Sew-wise). The girls meet every week at the Y.W.C.A., dividing into two groups for their sewing instruction. There is fun as well as work in the club and the members feel that their venture this year has been very worthwhile. Machine Shop, Glut). The officers of this club are the following: President—Paul Ursaki. Secretary-—Bill Paisley. Chief mud-in-the-eye—Ken Powless. Staff Adviser—Mr. Bond. Considering that the membership is limited to twenty, Machine Shop Club has done well this year. Is is composed of Third and Fourth year students, and Second years chosen by the executive. This year they are planning a display board of miniature items such as crank¬ shafts, hammers, gears and threads pre¬ pared for the Rrgina Exhibition. Money is raised for social evenings by doing small jobs brought in by the members. One social evening has been held which turned out very successfully and the members are now looking forward to the annual picnic at King’s Park which will wind up activities for this year.
