Machine Club This year, the Machine Shop Club started with a membership of fifteen but is open to anyone. Meetings are held on Thursdays from 3:45 to 5:30. These meetings are not only for the discussion of the club business, but also for talks given by a member on some subject of interest. The Machine Club members work on their own projects and also take some custom jobs in order to raise money. Four prizes are awarded each year to members who are the most promising ma¬ chinists. The Club also gives a prize to the boy who contributes most to music in Bal¬ four. This year the club had several social events such as: supper parties, theatre par¬ ties and impromptu treats. DR.

Mr. Bond PnintinCf, Club Eight new members, all first year boys brought our total up to sixteen. Of these, there is only room for three to work effec¬ tively at once in our small quarters. The new members describe this work with one word: Interesting. Samples of this year ' s work are the Drama Night tickets and .the Student Telephone Directories. When we are not crowded with other work, members like to print up some Goof Cards just for laughs. During Open House Night, considerable interest in this activity was shown by visitors and parents. We should like them to know that most of the work is done voluntarily by the boys on their own time; also that no formal printing classes are given at Tech. Our 1957-58 executive includes: President Vasile Mustatia Vice-President Larry Todd Secretary-Treas. George Harwood Staff Advisor Mr. Imbery Podia Club The Balfour Tech Radio Club was organ¬ ized on February 21st of last year and con¬ tinues this year with a group of twelve enthusiastic members. Mr. Quarry is staff sponsor. The club meets Monday afternoon from 3:45 to 5:30 p.m. The meetings open with a short business session followed by a half hour discussion of basic radio principles. The group then adjourns to the electrical shop to work on radio kits, radios, and other devices brought from home. This year as a special project, the members are as¬ sembling a Vacuum Tube Voltmeter to be used in future club and shop works. The club has established a library with George Harwood as librarian. Members have contributed books and magazines which are available for other members to read. The electrical shop library with current issues of popular radio, T.V., and electronics maga¬ zines, is also open for the use of members. Officers for the year are: President .

Three students from different collegiates are the regular members of the Den, along with Gary Miles from CKCK. These students are Patricia Amon, Balfour Tech; Jean Craig, Central; and Trevor Holfield, Luther. These students write their own programs. They try to discuss subjects of teenage interest such as vocations, fashions, parties, etc., as well as having talent from the dif¬ ferent schools. Best wishes from Balfour go out to the cast of The Den. 46 Balfour Beacon ' 58

Shirley Wolfe Kathy Moldovan Marcia Stith Secretary Vice-President Activities STUDENT ' S BEPHESENTATIVE COUNCIL 1957-1958 June Katcher President Pn udenti deposit As I write this message I realize how soon it will be before graduation day is here; and I think back to last year ' s graduation, when I was presented with a torch and told to hold it high and proud, for it was an emblem of leadership and responsibility. I hope I have carried out these responsibilities to your satisfaction. I could not have been able to do so, however, without the help and co-opera¬ tion of my executive, council and teachers. To them I extend my sincerest appreciation and thanks. This year has proved to be fairly active in both sports and activities. The Drama Nite in December, and the combined Drama and Operetta nights in March, proved to be a big success. This year, for the first time, we presented a Variety Nite which took the place of our Annual Charity Bazaar. The Variety Nite was very suc¬ cessful and provided good entertainment for both parents and students. I would also like to draw your attention to the fact that our long- awaited trophy case is expected to be completed before the end of this school year. In closing, I wish to extend my best wishes to the next Students ' Representative Council, and to the succeeding President I say these words: ' ' Hold your torch high, and help guide the way to even a bigger and better school year.
