Com, Principal of Balfour Technical School 1939 - 19 47 This Edition of the BALFOUR BEACON is respectfully and affectionately dedicated. Mr. Hodgkins, who announces his retirement from the Principalship of Balfour in this issue of the Beacon, joined the staff of the Commercial department of Central Collegiate in the fall of 1921. Previous to this date he had served as Vice-Principal of V ictor ia Public School. After teaching in Central for two years, classes were opened in the OKI Hospital building, more favorably known as Central Collegiate Annex. In 1924, Scott Collegiate was opened and became the temporary home of the Commercial department under the head¬ ship of Mr. W. C. Angus. In 1925 Mr. Angus resigned and Mr. Hodgkins was made head of this department. So decided was the growth of commercial work that a wing and a cottage school were added to Scott Collegiate. Further growth made it necessary to hold some classes in Benson School. By 1928 it was found necessary to move two classes to Central Collegiate. In January of 1930 a new Collegiate, the Balfour Technical School, was ready to relieve the overcrowding at Scott and Central. The Commercial High School came into being with Mr. Hodgkins as Principal. This continued until 1939 when the Commercial High School and Balfour Technical School were combined with Mr. Hodgkins at the helm. During Mr. Hodgkins’ administration Balfour has grown tremendouslj. Plant and staff have been increased, and great strides have been made in educational techniques. The Hodgkins era has been one of growth and experimentation. Pedagogical practices have been examined, innovations have been made where practi¬ cal, and many unique features have been introduced. The double shift system, the practice rooms, the extension of laboratory facilities, are just a few examples of the changes Balfour has seen during this period. As the Principal is, so the school goes, is almost a truism. Mr. Hodgkins has been moie than a good Principal. It is a matter of common knowledge that Balfour (s known far and wide for its school tone, efficiency of administration, internal dis¬ cipline and educational standards. It would be hard to find a Principal who has stood so solidly behind his staff, who has sought its advice more readily, who has implemented more faithfully its con¬ sidered decisions. It would be equally difficult to find a Principal who has had more lespect for the individuality of his students, who has done as much to see that his charges are happily situated in school and graduate life. That is not the whole story. There is the example of a man who has risen from the ranks through his own initiative and conquest of difficulties; a man who, by diligence, sacrifice and force of character, attained post-graduate college honours with a minimum of intra-mural work. There is the example of the preacher, interested in the spiritual, as well as the material welfare of his students; of the ardent churchman, always zealous in the betterment of his community. There are some things about Mr. Hodgkins which are rather difficult to reconcile in the eyes of the casual observer. With his genius for organization, he could have sought the financial prizes of the business world. He turned his back on a business career to become a teacher. With his gift of eloquence, he might have occupied some of the larger pulpits of our cities. For many years he has preached in city and country churches, actuated only by the desire to be of spiritual help to congregations in need. He has travelled miles on Sundays to meet small groups of worshippers with never a thought ol the physical and financial effort involved. Why did this man become a teacher? The answer is to be found in the hundreds of letters from former students that reach his desk. He has an overwhelming conviction of the importance of young people in the scheme of things. He will go to great lengths to instil in the minds of young people the need for earnestness of purpose, high character, and utmost diligence in the affairs of life. Mr. Hodgkins is a crusader. Deeply religious, he believes that spiritual quicken¬ ing is the foundation of high purpose. He is keenly alive to the injustices and shortcomings of the social and economic order. He will espouse the cause of the downtrodden and the underprivileged no matter what the cost to himself. As a teacher he is an incorrigible optimist, believing in the future of his pupils. As a student of world affairs he has grave misgivings on present trends. As a man he is unalterably convinced that the quest for Truth is the road to economic and social wellbeing, and that religious experience is the motive force in bringing this about. A teacher must be a humanitarian. It may be that a passion for the betterment of humanity was the urge that led Mr. Hodgkins to the classroom. It was this passion that led him on occasion to reprove social injustice from the public platform; that caused him to heed the cry of a dying child in China and to inspire students with the desire to help. Much could be said about Mr. Hodgkins as a teacher. Those who were lucky enough to have him drop in for a lesson will tell you about the dynamic quality of his teaching, the magnetism of his personality. For many years he conducted a class on the campus of the University of Saskatchewan. It is a tribute to his teaching that some of his former students are now members of the Balfour staff. Balfour will now have a Hodgkins tradition, rich and lasting. It will be a tradition for organization, efficiency, and hard work. But it will be rich in the acknowledgment of the dignity of the individual, the power of personality, the worth of character. It will be lasting in school spirit, far removed from external demonstrations of fictitious solidarity, but abundantly evidenced in the harmonious working of the component parts of the school and the enthusiasm with which students and teachers co-operate in the common cause of individual betterment. Mr. Hodgkins has become a part of Balfour, and Balfour will always be a part of him. Page 2 Balfour Beacon ’J7 ’• ' ,,w ' Zdiio ucd by VERA JAMES bteam- bult and ublud e iy Life is like a puppet show—a string is attached to each of our emotions, joy. sorrow, love, hatred and understanding, Our education teaches us how to pull those strings to make our life a success. “Education is the birthright of every child.” Besides broadening horizons and filling life with new and pleasurable interest, education builds a strong body and a sound mind. The future prosperity of our coun¬ try—of the world—depends on (he high school and college students of today. Without a good education we cannot live up to the heritage that has been handed to us—that of a broad rich land, sparkling with an unfathomable wealth in natural resources. Our country has come a long way since Confederation and it will never go back. Our inheritance has been made even more precious by the blood that was shed in two world wars to save this country for us. During the last war we heard of the fabulous wonders we would meet in the post-war world, but, as yet, we’re not living in plastic palaces with dream kitchens, and there’s no helicopter in the back yard. Those dreams were designed by the adults of yesterday for you, the adults of tomorrow—to create. Those dreams will never become a reality if we keep saying “Let George do it.” Someone must start these new and wonderful careers, and you can do it! Your success in these careers depends on the use you make of your educational opportunities. Learn all you can while you are young—it is the easiest time! I wish you many hours of enjoyment as you read, and re-read the varied pages of this, your book, the Balfour Beacon! In future years may it open the doors of the past to reveal many a treasured memory of the days spent in the Balfour Technical School! % Ousi AdueAtUesti. We are very grateful to the business firms who so generously contributed to our annual. Their prompt and courteous response to our solicitation for advertising is greatly appreciated. You, the students of the Balfour Technical School, can further show your appreciation by patronizing our advertis¬ ers every time you buy. % 7 4e Beaccut Staff Team play makes the world go round, and without such co-operation between the members of the Beacon staff, this publication would not have been possible. The willing assistance of our advisers has been invaluable. To them we are sincerely thankful! May we also express our appreciation to every student who has in any way assisted in the completion of this annual. Your work was not in vain—you may be justly proud of the part you have played. So nigh is grandeur to our dust, So near is God to man, When Duty whispers low, “Thou must,” The Youth replies, “I can.” — Ralph Waldo Emerson.

The participation of students and teachers in extra-curricular activities has increased sharply in the last decade, ft is felt by many parents and educators that these activities serve merely as diversions and they classify them as fads or frills which have been added to a programme already heavily loaded. Others who are just as interested and conscientious, argue that individual student needs are broader than the curriculum and that extra¬ curricular activities contribute liberally to their satisfaction. Certainly all those interested in our young people will want to face-up to the problem of whether these less formalized procedures have less fundamental educa¬ tional value and warrant the time and effort given to them. Under student activities, in the Balfour Technical School, are included many kinds of clubs, sthletics, student participa¬ tion in government and school life in general. Out of this maze of activity the Students’ Council, which is the governing body, seems to have evolved from sheer necessity. Democratically elected it decides policies, initiates and finances programmes, widely varied in their nature. The will of a very large student body is expressed through Student representa¬ tives, who ardently support their particu¬ lar cause in a parliamentary manner at regular council meetings. One time it is a campaign for a worthy charity and another, rallying to the support of a student drama night or operetta. Then again a new club is being formed to provide an outlet for a group of students who wish to pursue their common hobby under the direction of their chosen sponsor. All phases of student life find expression somewhere in this complex organization. The value of these activities in the school may be questioned but their popularity must be recognized. Since there is such a large degree of freedom and lack of formalized procedures, qualities of leader¬ ship, initiative and independence are given an opportunity to reveal themselves. Interests and abilities of specific kinds are often shown more clearly than in the classroom. Self-direction, dependability, and originality take their rightful place as outstanding personal characteristics. Surely this practice in democratic living, if organized and directed so as to supple¬ ment rather than interfere with the regular curriculum, should be a useful and stimulating addition to the offerings of our school. Souud ! Well, studes, it’s time again for the Secretary to make his one and only report of the year’s activities of the Students’ Council to this annual issue of the Balfour Beacon. The C ' ouncd got under way this year on October 1st and since then it has been going great guns. The first big item on the agenda was the motion allowing students to vote for their President and Vice- President. And this they did with really a swell election and the Executive is as follows: President—Joe Petreny, Vice- President—Audrey Hincks, Secretary— Bill Rees, Social Director—Alan Bell, Properties—Ken Porterfield, Publicity Director—Vera James, and Staff Advisers, Mr. Mutch and Mr. Flegg. Our first school dance of the year was held on November 1st and was a great success. We also provided taggers from the School for the Canadian Legion Annual “Poppy Day”. A new feature added to the Clubs of the School was the organizing of a Writers’ Club to which the Students’ Council gave a “Green Light”. This club has proved to be one of the most popular clubs of the School and the best of luck to you, kids! Another thing that went over well this year was the “Open House” night that was held early in December. A bouquet of roses to Audrey who did such a swell job of organizing. One of the biggest campaigns that the school has ever known was the Canadian Aid to China Fund drive, wdiich resulted in a total of little more than $1,000.00 to the Chinese Relief Fund. Congratu¬ lations are in order for the Committee who gave a lot of their time, and also to the Students for their swell co-operation in putting over this big drive. Tech welcomed another new club into its folds, the Stamp Club . . . Best of luck, kids! Just about here, it seems to be an appropriate place to hand out congratula¬ tions to the Clubs and organizations who did a swell job of putting Tech on the map. First... to the Drama Club, that zippy, hot-to-go club that produced one of the best Drama Nights this school has ever known. Anti to the actors anti actresses who made such an excellent showing in the Drama Festival. Second ... to the Glee Club and assisting artists for doing such a fine job of the Operetta “The Mocking Bird”. Everyone who was present on one of three nights have acclaimed it over and over again. Congrats to you, Mr. Rumbelow. Thirdly ... to the Editor and Staff for turning out such a worthwhile issue as this one, we’re really proud of it, and also to the staff advisers who gave so much of their valuable time. Fourth ... to the Editor and her staff for putting out a swell newspaper, “The Balforum” during the year. Well, kids, I think that covers every¬ thing that we have done in the school and to you people whose club is not mentioned in the above, don’t feel hurt because we haven’t forgotten you and so on behalf of the Students’ Council— thanks for your swell co-operation. To the Staff, Staff Advisers and Studes, and to the Janitors on behalf of the Student’s Council, my warmest thanks for really wonderful co-operation in all the activities that we have sponsored.

It is a source of great satisfaction to me that no one in school or out of it has suggested this step to me, but that, on the contrary, many have expressed regret at my so doing. However, one must have respect for advancing years and seek to find a field of labour which will be less exacting and less onerous. Hence my word of farewell. At the end of one’s professional career it is only natural to ask “What has been the source of greatest satisfaction?” Most assuredly it has been that all down the years one has striven to give the best and the most unselfish service of which one has been capable. Herein is life’s reward. There is no other. George Eliot put it very simply when she said, “The reward of one duty is the power to fulfil another.” Balfour Technical School continues its career, building into its classrooms and corridors, human experiences, failure and success, comedy and tragedy, joy and sorrow, living and dying. The end, no one now living can foresee. The urgent duty that is upon all of us alike is to follow the gleam which is always vouchsafed to each one of us. After all, constancy of purpose is the secret of all worthwhile achievement. In this way we reach our destined goal. —A. HODGKINS. A. Hodgkins, M.A., B. Com. Principal 7o- J. He does not sit alone, who treasures fast The timeless tapestries of golden days, Singling the strands of once familiar ways To seek the silken substance of the past. He does not dream alone who needs must share The pattern of his vision with Ins friends, Tracing the woven brightness till it lends hustre to lives dark-hued with doubt and care. He does not live alone who points the Truth Beneath a tangled iveb of hates and fears, Teaching the path of Faith throughout the years, Weaving the time-fast tones in hearts of youth. Who fabrics Friendship with threads true and tried Measures his motif million-multi plied. —F.S.R. Balfour Beacon ’4? Page 9 Miss Meta A. Nervick In memory of Miss Mela Nervick, who lost her life in a motor accident, July, 1946. Jl it Melodty There is a melody no longer ours— Sweet graces, lightly running steps Of merry music, laughing notes, And gay cadenzas underscored With diapasons of a reverent life, Brightening the narrow corridors of sense, And lifting hearts in gladness to the skies. Skilled, moving hands no longer touch the keys To bid the sleeping harmonies awake; The symphony, of song and work and prayer, And all that makes a life serene and fair, We cannot hear, and yet we surely know Its music swells to sweeter, grander heights Of sun and stars to reach the heart of God. The melody that only memory hears Becomes the rolling anthem of the spheres.

A stillness crept over the auditorium one January day when Dr. McClure presented Balfour students with an inspiring and informative talk on the conditions in China. It w ' asn ' t many minutes until we learned about the dread Kala-Azar (better known as Black Fever) that is sweeping through China and claiming about one out of every five lives. Our interest was held as Dr. McClure explained the disease, its attack, its effects and its newly-found cure. An Aid-to-China campaign is being started across Canada, he said, and he appealed to the Tech students for their support. The students showed their enthusiasm by several rounds of applause. At the next Student Council meeting the Aid-to-China project was discussed. Mr. Hodgkins told us still more about the disease. Dr. McClure had said that if the Balfour Technical School raised a fund, a sign reading “This cure was made possible by the kindness and generosity of the Balfour Technical students”, would be erected in Chinese at the hospital in China. Mr. Hodgkins also distributed pamphlets that pictured a child victim of Kala-Azar which reached the hearts of everyone. Mr. Hodgkins challenged us to raise $1,000.00 adding that he would put up $10.00 for every $100.00 we raised. With such enthusiasm how 7 could the project fail? The Council decided to stage a cam¬ paign by name of Kala-Azar Fund with Kola - Avert, a $1,000.00 objective to begin on January 14. A committee was set up including Ron Brown as chairman, Jo Shorten, Audrey Hincks, Cynthia Brinkworth, Doris Frederickson, Alan Bell, with Danny Yee Clun as advertising manager. This group of “eager-beavers” immediately got to work and organized a lively campaign. Danny Yee Chin made a large ther¬ mometer that showed the progress of each form and the total amount raised up to date, with the objective $1,000 at the top. Every day, students paused to observe the mercury in the thermometer and watched it climb. Climb it did! Ron Brown spent much time giving talks to forms while the committee members kept the form representatives on the job. Jo Shorten and Audrey Hincks acted as cashiers at recesses while Mr. Flegg kept the books. Did you see the write-up in the Leader and Danny’s original poster? That was something to be proud of! During the campaign we heard of a room that had a penalty box that went toward the fund, others turned in money they earned from business projects, teachers gave a donation, while still others gave personal donations. The campaign was to end on February 9 but due to old man weather, school was closed, consequently our campaign was held over until February 14. The Drama Club presented a Drama Kite on February 12 with three plays, proceeds for the Kala-Azar Fund. That gave the fund a mighty boost! and what entertainment!—thanks to the artists. Finally the campaign came to a dramatic and inspiring close with the ceremony of presenting a $1,000.00 cheque to our poor suffering Chinese friends. At nine o’clock on Friday, February 21, a large group of Balfour studes assembled in the Auditorium to see Ron Brown, capable chairman of the Kala-Azar committee, hand Judge Anderson the cheque which represented our effort and hopes of the past month. It was indeed a dramatic moment as cameras flashed to record the story of Balfour’s success in such a seemingly impossible task. Audible sighs of relief could be heard as our pledge was fulfilled and our job over, and more than one pleased smile could be seen as people congratulated themselves on this our latest accomplishment. Everyone was well agreed that our combining of this ceremony with that of the one which it is our habit to observe on the world’s day of prayer was very suitable and on the whole very uplifting. Bill Rees led the school in the Lord’s Prayer which was very heartfelt and sincere. The parable of the good Samar¬ itan was read by Audrey Hincks and Mr. Rumbelow led the assembly in a hymn. This we must all agree was an impressive service and the memory of it must stay with us for many years. Page 12 Balfour Beacon ’If?

' i ' Wo-ndeAia+id Winter! A lovely season and although it means overshoes and mitts, we love it. After the first light snowfall, operations are underway to make rinks. Skates are brought out of the cellar, taken to the repair man to be sharpened; hockey sticks are brought into view along with last year’s puck, everything is ready to form the new hockey team. Girls also bring out their skates, dream¬ ing of skating parties, and polish them so they will be all ready for their first spin of the season. Ski pants are also hauled out, and slacks and wool sweaters and thick mitts. But skating is not the only sport enjoyed in the winter. Sleighing and tobogganing are in the winter spotlight. Nothing can beat the thrilling sensation of whizzing down hills that are covered with a thick blanket of glistening snow, on a toboggan crowded with rosy-cheeked passengers, or the merry jingle of bells as a sleigh ploughs through the snow while the kids push each other off, their voices ringing out in the frosty night. That ' s what we love about winter. —June Williams 4B. We shall never really be apart. We CAN’T ever really be apart, for we’ve been together almost since you were born. Remember, when the war first started, and I worked in the factory where B-17 bombers were first made—or Flying Fort¬ resses as I know you’d rather have folks call you. I remember when you came down the assembly line to my section and a loose piece of your wing cut my hand. Oh, what names I called you! Do you recall how proud you were of all the parts of the world you represented? Your steel was from a Pittsburgh rolling mill, your copper from Montana’s mines, your rubber was brought from Malaya in the days before Singapore fell. Then there was your aluminum from a Tennessee plant, tungsten from China, instrument lenses from upstate New York, carnauba from Brazil for your electrical insulations. Yes, sir, you sure were proud! And I was proud of you too;—especially when the test crew had given you the “works” and the Army gave you the nod of acceptance. JliJze ' i and btiUzeA. Some men like the glamorous kind, Who have the glamour hut no trace of mind Who never have time for a readable book And who would starve without a cook. Some men like the real quiet kind Who seem to worry only about the mind, The girl who enjoys a quiet night Reading or listening to a song that’s right. Me — I’m just the girl in between Who loves a book or to sometimes nay-dream. I love to go to a dance or a show Or a party with my very best beau. I like to stay home once in a while, To read magazines on the latest style, You don’t need a fortune to have, a good time You can enjoy an evening just on a dime. So whatever kind of a girl you are, You’ll still like the moon and twinkling stars, But if you. like lights and a glamorous time, Don’t go with a guy who has only a dime. Marion Bickerdike 3A P ilaaie cMeaoe+i I never told you before, but I really missed you when they took you away to fly the scattered air lanes of the wide world. You know, it was you, that first gave me the yen to float around those soft white clouds, so I joined the airforce and was shipped overseas. Honest, I nearly cried the day the commanding officer took us out on the field to introduce us to the fellow who would take us out over the wide ocean to unload bombs on Hitler and Goering and all the rest of that gangster tribe, and found out the fellow was you! Boy, that was when the fun began, wasn’t it! Lots of times I thought it was the end of us when the Jerries poured so many bullets into you that you looked like a sieve. But you always got us back in one piece, even tho’ your tail was smashed and half your wing was off. I don’t think I ever felt more love for you than the time you flew four and a half weary hours on a single pair of engines—• 400 miles with your two starboard engines Q ' UUlU Uf- ' llfX Oh my goodness, how you have grown! I remember when you were just a tiny tot not able to walk, and just crawled around on the floor. You were pretty young then. Then you began walking. You stumbled over chairs, but once while running hit your head on the door, and received a big bump. I suppose you remember? By and by school was begun. My, you were shy. But look at yourself now! That was thirteen long years ago. About four years back, you were the spectacle of all your visiting aunts and uncles, and all you heard was the same old phrase, “You are all legs and arms!” Wasn’t that annoying? Then you had your thirteenth birthday, and were you happy. High school came at last and were you big! At least you thought so. Even wanting your own lipstick and such things proved that to your mother. Well, five years have passed since then and you are now somewhat the lady and have had many dates. But you are only eighteen and have plenty of time for marriage. But, of course, there isn’t much I can say for all this, throughout these years except, “My, how you’ve grown!” -—Nan Korpus 4B shot out by enemy fire. Then there was the time you brought us home in record time, because you knew your bom¬ bardier, that youngster from the Iowa corn belt, needed immediate attention if he was to be saved. You always did your best by us, no matter what condition you were in, and every one of your crew honours you for that. You brought us home this time too, even tho’ you had to crash to make the field. Now you lie there enveloped in flames and I can’t get near to help you. You see, when they dragged me out they found I had a bullet through my chest and they’re making me lie on this old stretcher while a doctor is trying to patch things up. But I don’t think he’ll be successful—that’s why I’m not putting up too big a fuss, ’cause I’ve a funny feeling that tomorrow we’ll be flying together again, but this time it will be in our own private heaven with no Jerries or gremlins to harm us ever again. —Vera James 4B Page J t 2 Ba four Beacon ’ fl Mo+tdLcuf Mosuusuf ReoeAie Our teachers have a theory That we come to school to rest, When our weekends make as weary; It makes me so depressed. So 1 beat the bell to classes, Fold my hands within my lap, Close my eyes behind my glasses Just to take a. little nap. Our teachers all are noisy To a horrible degree. They tell me to be silent When they’re talking more than me! But ’spite of all their dravjbacks I really am improving I do such loads of homework, To finish up my schooling. Helen Wolfe 2F SwimtnitUf “Sorry, mother, I won’t have time to have any supper tonight. Remember, it’s swimming at the ‘Y’ So is the cry of the Juniors as they hustle off for their regular Tuesday night swim. About this time the Seniors are gulping down their food to make it at the pool by 7.30. They arrive just in time to see the Juniors go through their last few minutes of muscle-bending. All the girls certainly look in tip-top shape (shape that is) as they withdraw from the pool to give the Seniors their turn. Mrs. Calder, (the swimming instruct¬ ress) tells us “To-night we are going to do some diving.” (or dying, which?) She starts us all off by doing a straight spring dive, and as this seems a cinch all the girls arc rarin’ to go for the tricky ones. If during the course of last Tuesday evening, some of you heard a terrific explosion, it was not an atomic bomb. No, it was the noise of the Seniors as they landed after doing their front flips. Wow!!— What form!! What graceful¬ ness! Just because we’re black and blue (with a little green and yellow mixed in) from head to foot doesn’t say we hit the water hard or anything! By the time 8.15 comes around, the girls have, in plain English, “had it.” They crawl out of the pool and there is a mad dash for the driers. And so, another swimming night is over and the girls talk (pardon me, yell), back and forth, about the evening’s events or should I say ‘dents’? Joan dcWitt Ou i Qol e+t MemanieA o-c eilten. As we gaze into the fire, you and 1 together, the flickering tongues of flame recall to us our memories of days gone by. The golden moment when firet I held your slender form, and, with painstaking care pressed you to my shoulder, and listened with intent ear as your message drifted out of the window and sailed away on ■ the fleecy down. I knew then that you and I belonged together, your face too gleamed with the anticipation of times to come. Do you remember the firet time we entered the spotlight together? My heart was bounding like the never ending roll of drums in the darkest part of Africa as 1 gazed with awe and fear at the sea of faces swimming before us. Then with a shaking caressing hand I held you and turned to face the tidal wave. However, the reassuring feeling of your presence and the coolness of your caress comforted me—then with the first note everything was forgotten, only you and I were in the room; only you and I and the music that poured from both our souls and blended into one beautiful harmony. All too soon it ended; there was the roar of applause and with smiling faces we made a quick exit. What a united feeling! Our first major obstacle had been overcome together. So years passed, and I entered higii school, but still you went with me. At our firet orchestra rehearsal, we met our fellows. Rehearsals led to performance—■ and the greatest night of all—the night we played for the operetta! The scenery, color, dress, suspense and excitement sent prickles of shivers down my spine. Then, at the signal, we filed into the orchestra pit, and at the first note, the curtain swayed and parted. The tension of the audience was relieved in applause and the play was on. Never! Oh never! dear companion, will that night be forgotten—• you were looking your very best, and I in my first evening gown. What a moment of supreme delight! But, dear fiddle, the hour grows late, and we could go on forever, but let us instead close our chapter of memories for the night and wind our way to bed and dreams of the past. Phyllis Roberts 4B % a PaiA. ojf ba+idntf, SUfiypreAA. A new pair of dancing pumps has come to take your place, “Old Faithful”, so I must bid you farewell, but, before I add you to the shoe collection, let’s reminisce for a while. Remember the day I purchased you? Your lustrous, black coat attracted me at once. The same coat that time and age have now cracked and wrinkled. Then there was the firet night I wore you to a dance. I stepped, pranced and jazzed. You stood all you could but finally you rebelled. How you rubbed and pinched my poor tired feet! I was glad to put you to bed that night. You’d cost me a tidy sum, so wear you I must. On you went again and again and off we went to more and more jamborees. Soon we were well acquainted. How often I told you my innermost thoughts and hopes. You knew how excited I was about going to the country dance. Then why did you fail me that night? Remember how all week long I prepared for the event. Finally, the night came. Off we went to have the gayest time possible. But, just as I was going to try a square dance you failed me. You let go of your heel and I had to sit back and watch the fun. That night, had you been able to talk, we should have had our fust quarrel. To show you that all was forgiven I took you to the shoemaker next day. He banged you, he knocked you around until you promised to hold on to your heel. I took you home and after that no matter how badly I misused you, you held together. But your young days are gone. Your shiny coat is shabby now and your sole is thin. You have joined the veterans and will soon march along with other shoes on another woman’s feet in a foreign land. —Dorothy Frombach 4B All we get is homework says the gang that goes to Tech, What will we be when we grow up, A razzle dazzled wreck! This homework business gets you down And makes you want to weep Oh! Please, dear teachers, do be kind — Don’t rob us of our sleep. We never go to parlies, or to dances or to shows, We haven’t even any time to give to wooing beaus, Our hair is straight and straggly, Our shoes are never shined, And all because of homework and the daily schooltime grind. Betty Neizner 3A Balfour Beacon t Jfk Page ■ul fUled Mr. Wilson and his seventeen year old son, Jim, lived in a rambling, old house on Campbell Street. Jim and his father were very devoted to each other and Mr. Wilson’s only ambition in life was to see Jim through college and safely launched into a brilliant career in engineer¬ ing. Jim’s chief concern was his father’s failing health and one day Jim burst excitedly into the living room and proudly announced he had a “Job!” Mr. Wilson could not help but smile and wish him luck. When questioned as to where he had secured the position, Jim said, “Mr. Deler’s Shipyard.” The next day father and son walked briskly down the street to the intersection. There they said goodbye and each departed to his respective occupation. As noon drew near, Mr. Wilson, feeling faint, hurried to the rest room, but collapsed in front of the entrance. A doctor was quickly summoned and pro¬ nounced Mr. Wilson in very serious con¬ dition, the result of a severe heart attack. The news was a startling blow to Jim, who now assumed the responsibility of supporting both his father and himself. One bright, sunny morning, a few days after his father’s attack, Jim awoke with a feeling of light-heartedness. He took his father’s breakfast in to him and was gratified to learn that his father was feeling much better. At noon Jim helped his father out to the sunny open-air verandah. There he left Mr. Wilson to spend a restful afternoon. Arriving at work, Jim met a large crowd of workers curiously grouped around a huge tank. Upon questioning one of the workers Jim learned that Mr. Deler’s nine year old son, Maurice, had fallen into the tank. Nobody could get inside the tank because of the small opening. Without any hesitation Jim volunteered to be let down into the tank to try and rescue the young boy. The foreman would not hear of it, saying the danger was far too great and he would not risk it. But Jim begged so hard that at last the foreman consented. A thick coil of rope was brought and one end tied around Jim. He mounted the iron ladder and squeezed through the small opening on top of the tank. He dug his feet into the bricks on the side of the wall and finally reached the bottom. The beams of Jim’s flashlight fell on the unconscious form of Maurice huddled in a corner of the huge tank. Jim hastily gathered the boy in his strong arms and shouted to be pulled up. Slowly he was pulled up—up. The uncon¬ scious figure in Jim’s arms gave a low moan and Jim’s arms felt as though they ’Twas the night before that dreadful exam , And into my head must everything cram. So with books piled high and papers rear, That dreadful lest 1 began to fear. But before 1 start 1 really should Get some cookies and cakes to make things good. A pillow or two and an easy chair, That’s all one needs, to gel marks fair. The clock creeps round, ' lis now past nine. Just to get started, and all will be fine. But there is the radio looking so dead, Why not get some music before more is said. Now slump down into my chair and gaze far into space, And wonder how that exam I’ll ever face. The class pins I’ve dreamed of sprout wings so fast, But I hope that in the future I can boast that I passed. I pick up a book in erne lone , last attack. And come to the conclusion that it’s brains that I lack. So into the corner all books I now chiock, And hope that I pass by some “streak of luck.” Doreen Jones 4B cMolic cuf, Rejjlectio-n ' L o-jj a StuxUesU Who but looks forward to the advent of school vacations with relief and antici¬ pation? During the few days before “the holidays” the undercurrent of excite¬ ment and impatience manifests itself in divers ways. On blackboards prominent cartoons incessantly remind one of the number of days remaining to be worked through, and last minute exams, come thick and fast. However, one’s morale is upheld by the knowledge that he is achieving his goal and that the inevitable arrival of a few carefree, though transitory, days will crown his efforts. With bated breath each receives his report card— and then there follows a clamorous com¬ parison of marks but anon, percentages are forgotten, each bids his fellow an earnest “au revoir” or perhaps an adieu and respective departures are made. Many are the individual forms of “holidaying”. Some will travel, perhaps by train—where the staccato rhythm of the swiftly rotating wheels soon forms a part of your thoughts, but the tiresome trip is more than compensated for by thoughts of a carefree sojourn at your destination. Or perhaps one indulges in sleep and otherwise forms a comfortable stereotyped routine in contrast to the systematic activity of school life. Then there is the odd anomaly,—one who is ambitious enough to clear up any exercises he may have previously not completed. But as the next school term approaches, new vigour and enthusiasm is born and students begin to contemplate with purpose the return to school. They are eager to have, “ knowledge to their eyes her ample page rich with the spoils of time,” unfurled. Here is born again, a desire for instruction and training which will enable them to not only acquire money and position but to make a success of their lives; to obtain a moral development thereby enabling them to live as happy, useful citizens. John Corkis 4A would break off. Only another few feet! Would they make it? The top of the tank and safety were at last reached. The eager hands of Mr. Deler took young Maurice from Jim, who suddenly felt very weak. The foreman came forward and congratulated Jim on his splendid courage. Jim was about to return to his job when a shout behind caused him to turn. It was the foreman who told Jim, Mr. Deler wished to see him in his office. Jim was told by the grateful Mr. Deler that he could not ever repay Jim for the splendid way in which he rescued Maurice. Mr. Deler said he would do anything he could for Jim and his father. Jim only asked that he be given the assurance of a steady job in order to get the extra medical care needed to completely restore his father’s health. Mr. Deler was only too glad to grant Jim’s request. The next morning there arrived in the mail a cheque from Mr. Deler for Jim. This money Jim spent for medical care for his father. Jim now has his college education and is a brilliant engineer. His father’s dreams have been fulfilled.

Club Qlee Gluh The year 1946-47 has been an out¬ standing one for our Glee Club. Under Mr. Rumbelow’s able direction they have taken part in many programmes, each of which has added something to the glory of a good name. The Glee Club started the season by rendering selections for the Teachers’ Convention. Following this was their splendid contribution to the Commence¬ ment Exercises. ’Midst a host of obliga¬ tions our lively musical director and his enthusiastic group found time to put on a musical evening for students and their parents. The Gyro Club honored the Club twice by asking them to sing, first, at a banquet in the Saskatchewan Hotel and, second, by inviting them to perform in their variety concert, “Stairs for Stars.” Once again our singing students gave a good account of themselves, this time at the Carol Festival held at Metropolitan Church in December. The Christmas Literary meeting would not have been so in keeping with the festive season were it not for selections rendered by the Glee Club and particularly the Hallelujah Chorus sung with time-honored spirit and enthusiasm. The Operetta, another enterprise, has taken time and effort but the students feel rewarded for the work involved by the producing of a fine show. When the Easter Literary meeting and the Musical Festival are over the Glee Club will close their music books for another term. Thoy have set a fine tradition this season— one well worth striving to maintain in future years. The Club washes to offer congratulations and thanks to Mr. Rumbe- low and to Miss Tufts, his able pianist. The Orchestra has spent a busy year, too. The school w as very pleased to hear their Yuletide Medley at the Christmas programme. The w ' ork on the music for the operetta has been intensive but it is a wonderful feeling of accomplishment to have mastered those difficult New Y ' ork scores.

Gameta Glut- Do you know where the Camera Club photo labs, are? There is one on the east side of the Auditorium, at the top of the stairs, and one just by the music room, downstairs. The meetings are held once a week every Monday to be exact, in Room 14, and a little discussion is held, then the members start on their printing and developing films under the super¬ vision of Mr. Platt. The members experiment with many different types of photography including photo-flash, flood¬ light, and enlarging. The President, Don Munro, and the Secretary, Nick Nences- cue, have had a job in solving problems on photography. Construction classes were held in the wood working department on making enlargers and printing frames. This club is emphatically a “shoe string” club. Expenses are kept to a minimum. No equipment will be bought where members can make the item themselves. No more members will be admitted to the club this year as it is fairly well crowded already. However, new members will be admitted after the summer holidays. The club now has a membership of 24, the largest since its inception in 1942. This organization is growing better every year, and why not? There are few more fascinating hobbies. Stamp, Glut- On the evening of Tuesday, January 17, 1947, Tech’s stamp enthusiasts assembled in Room 5 to organize a Stamp Club with Mr. Mitchell as the amiable and expert staff adviser. John Moroschan was elected President and Nick Nencescue was given the office of Secretary Treasurer. It was decided to limit the membership to thirty students who might belong to first, second, third or fourth year. As yet the membership is not closed and anyone interested in joining is asked to contact one of the officers. Every Tuesday evening the Club meets to enjoy a programme which promotes an understanding of stamps and to give a greater appreciation of their worth. It is not necessary for prospective members to know anything about stamps or be philatelists in order to join this club. You will be sure to learn all you want under the expert supervision of Mr. Mitchell. Next season we invite more students to share in this enjoyable study The Home of Fine Watches ciuikadouis fynenclt Glut- Le Cercle Frangais Balfour— “Mesdames, Messieurs, il est a present ... .” With these words the C. F. B. gets under way. “Seances” are held regularly every other Monday evening usually in the Alpha Tau room. This year with Miss Clermont as the capable staff adviser the Club got off to a good start. On September twenty-third, the third and fourth year students held an organization meeting in the music room and on October seventh the executive were elected as follows ' President —John Corkis. Secretary Treasurer —Ann Good- murphy. Vice President —Alan Gomez. Social Convener —Marilyn Boyle. There are twenty-one enthusiastic mem¬ bers who share the desire to acquire more fluent French. The programmes consist of singing French songs, listening to French records, games played in French, reading the French newspaper “La Presse,” composing plays and producing skits, perusing the Dupuis catalogue and en¬ joying the occasional social evening. The friendly and interested attitude which prevails at the Club meetings inspires self-confidence thereby enabling all who attend to agree that “les travaux du jour etaient, utiles et agreables.” Page J,8 Balfour Beacon ’J7 Back Row—H.

Twenty persons made up the membership this year with hopes of expanding and receiving a greater number of members in future years, for we feel sure that this is one club that will become bigger and better. Several meetings were made more interesting by the presence of guest speakers who passed some pointers on to us. Mr. E. Baker of the Saskatchewan Wheat Pool photography department entertained us one evening with colored slides of the north country and Indian settlements. Members were kept hopping all year putting out posters for various clubs including the Alexandra and Kinette Clubs, and decorations for the Hallowe’en and other dances were made by the club under the convenership of Danny Yee Clun. The executive for the year consisted of President, Joe Varro; Vice President, Norah Brandon; Secretary Treasurer, Danny Yee Clun; Social Convener, Alan Bell; Programme Convener, Grayce Fodey, and Activities Convener, Joe Soehn.

BRYDEN Deputy Minister ' ll n,iteSiA f Club With an eye to the social as well as the creative aspect of the craft, the writers of Balfour decided to form a fraternity this year. Under the direction of Mr. F. Rawlinson, an organization meeting was held early in the fall. The officers elected were: Lew Davidson, President; June Williams, Vice President; Isabel Radu, Secretary; Harold Crossman and Barbara Stemper, Councillors. Mr. Rawlinson was chosen as Adviser to the club and Mr. A. Hodgkins as Honorary President. The club joined the Quill and Scroll, an International High School Journalistic Society, and became the only Regina Chapter’. Members who qualified and were initiated into the Quill and Scroll received the distinctive pin and member¬ ship card. The club is open to students of Third and Fourth year and Special classes. Mr. Don MacMillan accepted the club’s invitation to become its sponsor ' and was initiated with Mr. Hodgkins. Mr. Mac- Mill an autographed the two copies of his book “Only the Stars Know”, which are now in the school library. The purpose of the club is to raise the standards of writing in the school and to encourage the younger students to write by giving them a goal to work for—membership in the Quill and Scroll. fealjjosiu+n As has happened in years gone by, it happened again one bright, crisp October morning, there appeared the first edition of the Balforum for the year 1946-7. However, a lot of preliminary work went beforehand in order to get the first edition ready for the printers. To get this done, the staff of the Balforum was organized under the capable Editorship of June Williams. In years before the Balforum was organized into two staffs— Morning and Afternoon, but this year for purposes of efficiency and consolidation, there was only one staff for both Morning and Afternoon Schools. To get a School Paper out for publica¬ tion means a lot of hard work that most students never stop to think about and a few of the things that have to be done are: 1. Business Manager makes contacts with printers and sets dates for publica¬ tion, etc. 2. Advertising solicitors are sent out next. 3. Editor and Managing Editor hand out the Assignments to the various reporters of the different depart¬ ments. 4. Material comes back to be read and typed. 5. Taken to the printers and galley proofs are made up. 6. Galley proofs are proof-read and Make-up Editor sets up the paper as it will appear. 7. Dummy paper is sent back to printers and a proof copy is received of the actual paper and is proofread again. 8. Paper has reached its final stage—publishing. This is what your Editor and her staff have to go through (no wonder Editors go gray). This has been a big year for “The Balforum”—reporting on the Canadian Aid to China Fund Drive, the Operetta “The Mocking Bird”, Convocation Exer¬ cises, and the last issue which was respect¬ fully dedicated to Mi’. Hodgkins. During the year also, “The Balforum” was sent to all corners of the globe and from these corners lurve come replies of congratula¬ tions on such a swell paper. And out of all this, resulted five issues of the Balforum,—and so—a bouquet to June and her staff for a swell paper, “we’re proud of Tech and its paper”. Page 50 Balfour Beacon ’5 7 Front Row—D.

A part of this time is given to library classes, each class having one period a week, and the remainder of the time is set aside for reference reading and research. An ever-smiling Mrs. Hyland weighs our counsels when the going gets tough, and gives with that extra little informa¬ tion needed to complete a school project or stiff assignment. A column in the Balforum and a bulletin board in the library bring new books to the attention of the students. And here in this sunny, quiet room, where bright red geraniums stand like sentinels on the window sills, the Balfour students “treat books as some do lords; they inform themselves of their titles, and then boast of an intimate acquaintance-” THE EXECUTIVE: President: Jean de Witt.

Three plays were presented: FIRST DATE, WAYSIDE WAR, and A QUES¬ TION OF FIGURES. The Glee Club contributed some lovely musical numbers. All in all, it was an evening of perfect entertainment. The proceeds of this show JlatUt In October of the Fall term several of Tech’s students interested in Latin assem¬ bled under the efficient and helpful staff leadership of Miss Lee. Thus the second year of this ambitious enterprise got under way. The aim of this group is to master the mysteries of declensions and conjugations thereby gaining an understanding of the basic language. To this end ten members earnestly ply away at exercises for at least an hour every Monday and Wed- went to the “Canadian Aid to China Fund”, and it was due to this that the school finally obtained their goal of one thousand dollars. Also, Miss O’Connor’s play, “Wayside War”, entered into the Saskatchewan Drama Festival on February 20th and 21st. This play received special com¬ mendation, and Sheila Murphy as “Alicia Pemberton”, won the Best Actress Award, chosen from the plays of these two nights, which included Regina and district. Combining these two main events, the Drama Club has had a very successful year, and we will be looking forward to productions like this again next year. Glui nesday afternoon. The friendly class procedure of these meetings fosters interest in this reputedly “dull subject” and thus each student tackles his exercises with diligence. Such voluntary application in order to secure the widest possible education to fit them to meet the problems of life ought surely to ment success for these students. The members hope for a happy future for the Club and that others with as much enthusiasm will succeed them. Maintenance I. J. Harris P. Jasper G. Pollock O. Skundberg Missing T. Bell, J.

The membership is composed of third and fourth year students with several second year boys selected by the executive. Some of the Club’s activities include making of games for the school and com¬ pleting jobs that bring money into the treasury. At each meeting one member leads a discussion on a chosen topic of interest. To date this year the club has had two social evenings and is looking forward to the usual spring picnic at Boggy Creek. The boys in this club not only enjoy get-together evenings but also much practical mechanical experience. fecdUrUnto+t Gluh The Badminton Club got off to a good start this year with a total enrollment of 15 members. An executive was elected, consisting of Harold Crossman, President; Ralph Waldo, Vice President; and Carol Engles, Secretary Treasurer. Members meet each Monday and Tuesday night in the gym to wield rackets, and watch the birds. The instruction is under the capable direction of Mr. McLean and Mr. Holash. After Christmas members started to turn out regularly and a tournament was arranged with Scott, taking place on March 10th. Tech, copped the laurels by 15 points ahead of Scott. A second tournament is planned with Central on March 14th. Enthusiasts turning out were: Joe Petreny, George Bradley, Roy Nakagawa, Dale Child, Evelyn Waumbach, Marjory Toth, Maeolla Felske, Ron Brown, Ervan Harlos, Terry Woods. feawlinif The first half was won by Meek’s and Smith’s teams, each having 17 points. Since Christmas Leach’s team has set the pace. On February 22 Regina bowlers visited Moose Jaw for friendly games. Moose Jaw returned the challenge on March 1. There are 80 enthusiastic future bowlers in Tech’s bowling league this year, and from all reports there really are future champions among us. Macliin s GluL Back Row—R. Waldo, 1). Moneo, B.

However, this, without a doubt, is one of the most industrious groups at Bal¬ four Tech, with a membership exclusively for boys. The sponsor of the club and owner of a great deal of the equipment is Mr. Imbery. As a result of the skill and ambition of such members as: Harold Hamluck Orman McDougall Paul Ursaki Joe Varro Bill Lang Danny Yee Clun the following projects were possible. First, the Christmas Cards were designed and printed for teachers and students. Second, the operetta tickets were printed, as were also the tickets for most of the school dances. Besides this, letter heads were arranged for the Students Council note paper. The money received for some of this work is used for activities such as a party held on February first and also for a final social evening to be shared by the Machine Club.

QinJl ' -Athletic Council The Council is organized to further the interest of sportsminded girls and to promote a definite school spirit. President- —Edith Lambrecht. Vice President —Doreen Catton. Secretary Treasurer — Phyllis Roberts. Meetings are held every second Monday of the month in the Alpha-Tau Room. Each girl represents an organized sport, and makes a report on its progress. This is the first year a Girls’ Athletic Council has functioned in this school and much credit is due Miss Gregor and these few girls for the splendid job they are doing. Jnte ' i- JoAm fioA-hetlcUl Basketball between the different forms was started early in the fall, but had to be postponed during the period of league games. Inter-form Basketball was organ¬ ized in order to interest girls in sports, and in order to train girls for school teams. In inter-form games the referees were girls on the Sr. Girls’ Basketball team. These games will be renewed at the end of the league games which will probably be the beginning of March. Qi l-i ' OnteA- foA nt Jlectff,ue About fourteen rooms entered teams in this league. Games were played ' in the morning and afternoon as well as in the evening to accommodate the different schools. The final game was played between 4B and 2A with 4B winning the championship pennant by one run. Qinti ' 7 iacJz and fyieJA 1946 Here it is at last! News about 1946 Girls’ Track and Field Team. The girls made 127 points at the meet held at the Exhibition Grounds. The Meet was under supervision of the S.R.M. and all events were run off as scheduled despite the cold, rain, and mud. No records were broken but our own Doreen Jones made the best broad jump and Elva Johnston was the best in the javelin and discus throw’s. As usual, the relays attracted the most spectators with Tech, placing second in the Midget and Senior and third in the Junior. The girls welcome all newcomers to join us in the Track and Field Trials this spring. C inti ' tf-o-Ltlall 1946 Tech, gills started out with a bang by handing Central a 12-6 defeat. Twice Luther defeated our team by 11-5 and 8-5 scores. Scott battled Tech, to a 7-7 tie. Central emerged as League Champ¬ ions losing only one game and that one to Tech. All Tech, practices and games were held at 5.30. It is felt that if all our ballplayers cou ' d find it convenient to turn out for practices and games, we could have a championship team this spring. QinJ.6. ' UMlliuXf, What’s all the noise in the gym on Wednesday at 6.30? The Tumbling Club got off to a good start last fall with squad leaders Ruth Wolfe, Marjorie Wrobel, Lily Mearns, Lillian and Lorna Rodgers. We are busy practising for a short display soon. Senior QiAti. ' fiaAJzetlui.il With five teams entered, the Senior Gir ' s’ Basketball League got off to a fine start last November. Central and Tech remained undefeated in the first half of the league. Tech’s only loss was 19-18 score to Central in the second half of tne league. The championship game played at Regina College saw’ our girls crumble under a 31-5 defeat by Central We had a fine spirit among the players and wish them much success next year. Qisild. ' £tuinunin(j. Every Tuesday evening since last October, Tech, girls have been going to the Y.W.C.A. for swdmming instruction. A record membership existed then, but why has it dropped so suddenly? In the Sw’imcapade did you know that Tech. Girls won three relays against Scott? Led by Betty Bingham, the Seniors are practising for the Swim Meet in April. See you there! This has been a very worthwhile club and hope it will continue to receive the Students’ support. Now it’s time for the rest of us to do the cheering for Tech. Cheer Leaders who braved the mud and rain to be at all our rugby games. If they are an example of school spii ' it Tech, has nothing to worry about. fjunia ' i Uo4fA. ' fioAhetfall Balfour Tech’s Junior Basketball team is made up of the smallest and lightest boys in the Inter-Collegiate League, but they have a lot of fight in them. Members of the team are: Jack Leibham as captain, Ray Hewak as our high scorer and Ervan ILarlos, Frank Leffler and Lloyd Stephen¬ son. Jim Lysack is our starry guard and also plays full time of games. Art Belick (Tiny Tim) and Arnold Taylor are the other guards. The coaching duties are carried out by Mr. Holash. Ruxjluf, 1946-47 We didn’t win the Rugby this year, but we should be proud of the boys who took an active part on the team. At the beginning of the year 40 boys, big and small, turned out to try for the rugby team. All tried very hard and when the season opened, plungers hke Smith, Robertson and Prizeman gave opposition a lot of trouble. Bradley’s big boot came in handy until a stiff leg kept him out of action. Then there are boys like Varro and Jolly who w’ere hurt in pre-season practice and weren’t able to play in the games. The coaching was handled by Mr. Mackenzie and Mr. Holash. £e ua i fiaifA. ' fiaAJzeJLall The Senior team, coached by Mr. Craig, is playing a fine brand of basketball, both on the offensive and defensive. Smart, fast passing and driving made opposing teams take note. There are five forwards and the strategy used is to have any three forwards work on a line. The three guards can be relied on to hold the opposition down ' . With tw’o holdovers from last year, Nadoraznick and A to Z, graduates from Junior ranks Klassen, Woods, Stager, and a sprinkling of newcomers, Tech, was deep in there trying.

In the Spring a “Color Night” is being planned at which awards will be presented. Have you read the Award System which has been posted on the athletic notice boards? 1. Red Bands—for being on a room or school team. 2. Crest—For being a member of a winning inter-collegiate team. 3. School Letter—1. 3 red bands—two a Senior team; 2. 60% average—academi¬ cally; 3. Personal qualifications. 4. Cups presented to most outstanding boy or girl athletes of the year. This is a start in fostering more partici¬ pation in team athletics, and it is hoped that in the years to come this system will continue with more athletes winning awards. Best of luck in your efforts. After trying hard for years, Tech’s hockey team finally brought home the Lang Trophy, emblematic of Inter-collegi¬ ate Hockey supremacy for 1947. The hockey team had a very good year losing only one game, that against Scott, and battled to a tie with Luther. The last two games were both shutouts for Fred Smith and the hockey title for the school. All the players join in thanking Mr. Mutch and Bill Giokas for a swell job of coaching. GuAtitUf, Glut For the first time Tech organized a curling club with Mr. Lewis’ assistance. During the Christmas holidays a rink went to Winnipeg which included B. McGillivray, D. Boesch, K. Fermier, and B. Williams. B. McGillivray, D. Slager, D. Wilkinson and H. Lenzin were the rink which entered into the playoffs in Regina, losing to Central 9-7. During the season we had bonspiels. Robinson won the first bonspiel and he tied with McGillivray for the second ’spiel. Crests were distributed to the club members by B. McGillivray. Here are the standings as the league concluded: Won Lost Robinson. 5 2 McGillivray.. 5 2 Caragata. 4 3 Fermier. 4 3 Tulloch. 3 4 Boesch. 3 4 Williams. 2 5 Cole. 2 5 HOME OF THE BALFOUR TECH LEAGUE THE BOLODROME 1926 Hamilton St. TIRE EXCHANGE LTD. “THE SHOP OF SERVICE” EXPERT VULCANIZING — GAS AND OIL Cor.
