MECHANICAL CLUB Low enrollment in the Mechanical Course this year, had a large effect on Club functions. Participation was at a minimum and the Club Coffers took a beating. The Annual Dance at The Boulevard Club was the biggest deficit yet but everybody had a good time with two pairs of N.H.L. tickets being given away. No class was deprived of having a field trip, which came as a surprise, although 4th year was shot down on a proposal to travel to Montreal. Instead Ottawa was the destination for about 45 Mechanical types for two days. Of particular interest to all, was the tour through N.R.C. Those who planned the trip should be congratu- lated for a job well done. One smoker was held in December with the intentions of having another one during the second term. These events are always enjoy- able, and the first was in the form of a student- staff panel show. A small group in second year was responsible for maintaining the prestige ac- corded the winner of the mural contests of the Cannon Ball. After some politics were involved, the Mechanicals emerged the winners for the third straight year. Each of our years has a hockey team in the intra-mural league, and there are hopes of hav- ing a small tournament within the course dur- ing the 2nd term. A prediction for the outcome of the Chariot Race sees the Mechanicals victorious with an- other superb chariot! 4th year Mechanicals showing a keen interest in the Shop Model Lab at N.R.C. — Ottawa.
