CLASS 8C (Miss J. Ballantyne) The Time: A sleepy Monday morning in the year 1967. The Place: The district of Balmoral School. As we walk down the street we see Billie Hunt busily sweeping the side¬ walk in front of his new store. Then we walk into the Douglass Drug. Here we see Janette Rcsine serving two customers at the soda fountain. The customers are Marjory Popoff and Robert Ellis looking dreamingly into each other’s eyes. Over at the book stand we see George McKay reading a book entitled, “Robbing a Bank in Three Easy Lessons”. After crossing the street we get on the bus and of all people we see Bill Inge driving and lazily punching transfers. In the bus Shirley Meckling, Marjorie Hicklin, and Janet Matheson are on their way to work in a law office as secretaries. After getting off the recklessly-driven bus, we find ourselves standing in front of an exclusively desiqned dress shop called Benner’s Beauty Bar. Look¬ ing through the window Audrey Morrison, the model, is demonstrating her latest dress creation. On one of the sofas we see Marilyn Benner frantically trying to sell Viola Hokanson and June Dickeson a remarkable creation. At a busy corner nearby we see Gary Stagg shouting, “New shoe laces for old! New shoe laces for old!” Looking up in the sky we see the hot pilot Bill Marshall sky writing “Gurbles Beauty Garden for Georgeous Gals”. But what’s this coming up the street? Oh! It’s Alberta Dodge and Paula Rothbauer staked heavily with groceries. Farther down the street we come to the Farr Loft Fighting Club. In the ring we see Ken McLaren and Lome Anderson practising for the world’s championship. In another part of the building we see Ron Miller training on the speed bag. On leaving we take an elevator which Mary Sanderson operates. There is Miss Ballantyne, who has just received an award for the best teacher in Calgary. 31
