Walking on down the street we see Frank Sabourin and Gordon Mc¬ Lennan digging out a leaky water main, with Edwin Zimmerman, a street sweeper, giving his advice. Then, as we turn the corner we hear a crash and see a car piled into a telephone pole with Irvin Kipnes lying across the motor. When the ambulance arrives, another familiar face appears, Joan Anderson, the hospital nurse, who assists in putting Kippy in the ambulance. As we walk on we meet Maxine O’Bray, the baseball coach of old 8C. Then we pass Gordon Ek, a policeman patrolling his beat. As we walk on we see a newly wedded couple coming out. Yes, you guessed it, Norris Cummin and Georgina Jordan, David Hallis is selling newspapers on the street corner, so to be friendly we buy one. On the front page we see another familiar face, that of Lloyd Scott, who is now a scientist in the Research Institute. Walking further down the street we see Margaret Cameron pricking herself with a pin. We ask her why? She says she wants to be a movie star and all movie stars have to suffer. When we arrive home we sit down to read the society column of the paper and find that Bob Dahrouge and Noreen McLeod are to be married on June 15th. That Harvey Austin accompanied by Jim Swickis, his faithful guide, is going to Africa for research in the Pgymy Land, and Ron Neale and Bob Engelman have gone to Wisconsin, U.S.A., to act as guinea pigs in re¬ search. On the front page we see that Betty Johansen, Sharon Kinley, and Audrey Marshall are running for the title of Stampede Queen. Then we turn on the radio to hear the Prime Minister of Canada, Donald Hume, speaking. ♦♦ CLASS 8D (Mr. R. T. Russell) G. Alfer—Doesn’t bother with the girls.

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
