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.

The party was in Etobicoke and it is now claimed that results of the liquor vote there, can in no small way, be attributed to this great effort. The residents decided that this shouldn ' t happen in the developed area and voted wet in order to localize and hence control boozing. The field trip to Ottawa was one of the year ' s highlights. Activities during the trip, apart from the interesting tours through the Canadan International Paper Co. and N.R.C. included boozing in the pub, boozing in the room, boozing on the bus, boozing in Hull, eating and satisfying Ottawa chicks. This year ' s Skule Dinner and the Cannon Ball will be remembered as well as those of other years as great Engi- neering events, surpassed only by the At Home which in fourth year takes on added significance. But the biggest and the best will be the Grad Ball and its memories will surely mean the most to us. During the history of the class of 6T2 at U. of T. many momentous events took place — the demise of Skule Jackets began, the Galbraith Building and Sidney Smith Hall were opened, some brand new crib-proof labs were created and the Engineer began to take a good look at himself and wasn ' t too pleased with what he or Miss Mikos saw. Four years have passed and another 70 Mechanical En- gineers make ready to set out. One just cannot avoid look- ing back and what is seen depends ,on the viewer and how he was impressed. To summarize all of the happenings of four yeurs would cause each to pale into insignificance, lectures, dances, meet- ings, labs, parties, stunts, satellites, hockey teams and foot- ball games. What really counts is the effect of these on each of us and that depends on to what advantage we used all this potential. Academic ability is proven — we made it — but the men to whom this knowledge is entrusted will establish its worth in the future, and 6T2 Mechanical is ready to give it the old college try.
