THE SCIENCE CLUB LEFT TO RIGHT: S. Beal, R. Seely, F. Lenz, J. Gilbert, G. Pesowski, Mr. Harry, P. Brusey, J. Royal, G. Dingledine, D. Seeley, Mr. Page. The Aldershot Science Club had its biggest year ever, this year. To start off, the Third Annual Cosmic Car- ousel, the first dance of the fall was held. There was enough money grossed from this, and the pre- sentation of a one-hundred dollar cheque to the Sci- ence Club from Honeywell Controls on behalf of Sharon Roberts ' television appearance on Science All-Stars in early 1965, to assist the financing of some of the projects in the Hamilton Science Fair, and to pay for the customary Chinese dinner at the Tien Kue Inn. □ UiJUII UIVIUIII kJU-thlliriUUIlf l I ' 1 Before Christmas, there were several general meetings held, the highlight of which was a Las- er demonstration, attracting over one hundred stu- dents, by Dr. R. Smillie of the Bell Telephone Co. At the Hamilton Science Fair, in March, Ald- ershot for the first time represented itself well enough to capture the Herb Gildea Memorial Tro- phy. The following contributed to the success: Gary Pesowski Stuart Beal Guy Giannini John Royle Patricia Brusey Gary Coates John Gilbert Fred Lenz Dave Seeley Rick Seeley 1st in Geography, Physiography 1st in Chemistry 1st in Gen. Physics 2nd in Metallurgy 3rd in Chemistry Merit award in Engineering Mathematics Merit award in Nuclear Physics Merit award in Zoology Merit award in Electronics Merit award in Chemistry.

THE LION ' S ROAR FRONT ROW: D. Cotterel, G. Dingledine, Editor; Mr. Coggins, Staff Advisor; F. Lenz. Lisson, D. Smith, G. Proctor. BACK ROW: V. The Lion ' s Roar staff, this year, small but diligent, was able to produce seven issues, the first of which was free to all. The paper assumed a neater appearance by the use of sten- cils for titling and a two-column printing layout. Also, the staff itself was responsible for the actual printing of the paper, the first time in the publication ' s four-year history that this has been done. Among the successful features this year have been the Recognitions Page , a derogatory editorial on the defects of the cheerleading squad, pages of candid pictures and such goodies as: BOAST OF THE MUSTANGER: I never trust the moonlight I ' m home soon after dark, My road map shows no lover ' s lane And so I never park. I never drag, nor squeal the tires When I drive down the streets And just to prove my heart is right My car has bucket seats! BONES: Did you ever think of bones They lie there cold and alone Yes, after you ' re gone they remain A pile no one will claim. Just think, no fat little body to support Or juicy blood cells running in and out. Have you ever seen a bone cry? Well, as a matter of fact, neither have I. Good-bye from your on-the-spot report, I. Robgraves — Happy digging. M. Lisson, Vol. IV No. 6. In February, The Lion ' s Roar entered the high school newspaper contest sponsored by the McMaster Silhouette and although it did not emerge a winner, it learned much that will help next year ' s staff (much larger we hope) to produce a bigger and better newspaper. Mr. 213 ?? Vol. IV No. 6.

In addition, Gary Pesowski and Stuart Beal won second and third over-all awards respective- ly, and a three-hundred dollar scholarship each from McMaster University. Guy Giannini was chosen the alternate for Navy Science Cruiser Award to Nor- folk, Virginia. As a point of interest, Stuart and Gary were chosen to appear one afternoon on Raz- zle Dazzle , a CBC program, as the serious part of the program. Stuart went on to the Canada Wide Science Fair in Windsor, Canada, held in May, 1966, where he won a one-hundred dollar cheque from the Can- adian Chemicals Institute. Gary entered his ex- hibit in the International Science Fair, held in Dallas, May 1966, and while in Dallas won a cer- tificate of excellence from the American Institute of Mining, Metallurgical and Petroleum Engineers and an alternate award from the Society of Explor- ation Geophysicists. Now that the Aldershot High Science Club has taken that trophy from Nelson, you can bet that the members will be striving harder than ever to keep it next year!

The Aldershot Chess Club play- ed in no tournaments this year, although several other schools were challenged, among them Bur- lington Central. It is apparent that our boys have gained a reputation for skillful play in the com- munity. TOP ROW: T. Fromanger, R. Herdman, M. Hedden, G. Gordon, D. McRae, Treasurer; T.
