Among these, several helped in putting on the make-up for the Inter-School Festival. During the first few weeks of January, we took in about 30 new members from Grades 10 and 11 who were trained by the more experienced members in the art of applying make-up. As in the past years, we took on one outside activity. Although we weren ' t directly involved, our make-up was used by the Orpheus CLUB Society for their production. In the middle of Feb- ruary, for Hamlet, the major B.C.I. Drama Club production, the Make- Up Club participated to its fullest. On behalf of all members, I would like to thank Mrs. Moor for the time, effort and patience she gave us during this year. — Ann Howard IIC Page 49

THE KEY CLUB Each Wednesday noon, the members of the B. C. I. V. S. Key Club, one of 2,060 such groups comprising Key Club International, meet to have lunch together, hear informative and entertaining speeches, and conduct the business of a very active organization of forty-three members. As a junior Kiwanis Club, our club enjoys the close association with a group of community leaders. Members have the opportunity to learn about the proper meeting procedure and their responsibilities in a club of service. They have a chance to develop initiative and leadership ability, to learn more about the community and citizenship, and to gain a broader knowledge of various businesses and professions. The efforts and funds of the Key Club are directed toward serving the school and the community, and helping our sponsor, the Kiwanis Club of Brantford, to carry out is programme. The Key Club ' s donation of lights for our school dances, its assistance in last year ' s Careers Night , and the promotion of school spirit were accompanied by donations to the Red Cross and Commiuiity Chest, and food hampers for needy families at Christmas. These accomplishments, along with many others, cause the members to feel that they have had a very successful year, as each works to uphold the Key Club objectives and the theme for 1961, Combat Complacency , and to guide his life by his member- ship pledge: I pledge on my honor to uphold the objectives of Key Club International: to build my home, school and community; to serve my Nation and God and combat all forces which tend to undermine these institutions. — John Canning 13A FRENCH CLUB Bonjour, mes amis. This is the French Club reporting from Room 209. For the first time in several years, sufficient interest has been aroused to form a club of French-study students, and we hope our endeavours will prove successful. Under the direction of Miss M. Fox, we meet on alternate Monday nights after school. The only requirements for would-be members are regular attendance and an effort to speak French at the meetings. Our first meeting was in the form of a Soiree de Noel at the home of Jan Turner. At our second meeting, w e were entertained by five members of last year ' s On to Quebec Club, who related their experiences in Quebec last summer. Films about France were shown at the third meeting. We are planning many more programmes full of fun, and, we hope, French. Our executive meets on the Mondays between regular meetings. John Kruspe is our president, Claudette LeBlond our vice-president, Jan Turner our programme convener, and Miss Fox our staff advisor. Our members consist of students from grades 10 and 9A, who want more French than is offered in class. We want not only to improve our accents and vocabulary, and to become better acquainted wdth the French language, but to learn more about France, the French people, and their way of life. If you are interested in French and would like to join us, there is a place for you. So w hy not attend our next meeting? A bientot, mes camarades! — Suzanne Allen lOA

SCIENCE CLUB This year was one of improvements for the Science Club. An intelHgent executive, linked with an active membership, resulted in a fine, interesting programme. The Club ' s weekly meetings consisted of lectures by teachers, the executive, and the members, special speakers, such as Mr. R. W. E. McFadden, and many films and special features. As an attempt to spread scientific interest, a display case was erected. A bulletin board was also undertaken, along with a Senior Science Assembly and trips to Niagara Falls, the Buffalo Museum of Science, WBEN-TV, and the Ontario Science Fair. Members of the executive wrote several science articles for the Youth Page in the newspaper. The Club also has several tentative plans, including an essay contest for members. The executive and the membership wish to express their thanks to the teachers of the science depart- ment for their extensive co-operation and aid, and especially to Mr. Kennedy, our staff advisor. — Peter Calamai 13A DEBATING CLUB Front Row — Mrs. Avison, Janis Turner, Jamie Williamson (Vice-President), John Olenski (President), Norm Schachar (Treasurer), Jim Brown, Peter Cooke.

It is open to all Grade 9 and 10 students. The purpose of the Debating Club is to stimulate discussion with all members taking part, and to learn to reason logically. The programme includes formal and informal debates. Although the club at present is somewhat small, it is hoped that it will eventually encompass all grades. Our president, John Olenski, is ably assisted by the vice-president, Jamie WilUamson, and secretary- treasurer, Norman Schachar. We wish to thank our staifl advisors, Mrs. Avison and Mr. Cullen, for their whole-hearted support and advice. Without them, the club would not have been possible. — John Hoshowsky lOA
