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.

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.

THE GIRLS ' ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION TOP ROW: Miss Lyons, D. Shonk, S. Downs, F. Layfield, J. Fraser, C. Hall. J. Roberts, President; L. Cockwell, M. Filman. BOTTOM ROW: P. Williams, Congratulations are again in order for the fine efforts put forth by the G.A.A. under the excel- lent guidance of Miss Lyons. The association was responsible for two firsts in the history of A. H.S.: the organization of the very successful Grade Nine Get Acquainted Night , and the stag- ing of an Art Linkletter Skit which entertained the school at Christmas. Our annual Sadie Hawkin ' s Dance, and an ex- citing girls ' intramural gymnastics meet were two other noteworthy G.A.A. accomplishments which indicate clearly the enthusiasm and hard work con- tributed by these girls for the benefit of the school. THE BOYS ' ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION The B.A.A. carried out a most successful intramural programme in football, soccer, basket- ball, floor hockey and lacrosse. A joint effort with the Students ' Council and the G.A.A. produced a successful and enjoyable Ald-0-lympic Week which featured a tug-of-war and a volleyball game between the teachers. The Gold Team was victorious. In the fight for the Aldershot Loser ' s Cup, the B.A.A. was the winner of the prized cup, after being edged out by the teachers in a closely con- tested basketball game. The B.A.A. would like to extend their thanks to Mr. Neale for his valuable assistance this year. TOP ROW: Mr. Neale, B. Ferguson, P. Goodrow, R. Dale, G. Giannini, M. Lloyd. BOTTOM ROW: P. Buxton, G.
