TI-IE SCI-ICCI. ORCHESTRA A KALEIDOSCOPIC VIEW Jocund rebecks sound: First by Ross McRae, Bill Homenuk, John Williams, Sydney Gitterman, Bill Peters, Paul Switzer. Storage Seconds: John Smith, Louis Galenzoski, Ted Williams. Flourish of Trumpets: Doug Craddock, Ian Partridge, Bill Loucks. Tickling the Ivories: We have Phyllis Burrows. Ross Sneath sounds the drums. Towering over this galaxy is our amiable conductor, Mr. R. J. Staples, who back in '34 led their predecessors to victory in the Western Canada H. S. Orchestra contest, and was prevented from repeating this feat because the festival was cancelled this year due to unforeseen circumstances arising in Winnipeg. They were, however, active in the Commencement exercises and played a stellar role in the Easter Concert, accompanying the Elgar Club Indian Pageant and playing selections of their own between numbers. 1-1- ELGAR CLUB The year opened, as is usual, with the election of a capable slate of officers. They are: President-Eleanor Dolan. Vice President-Marjorie Townsend. Secretary treasurer-Rachael Resch. Librarians-Beth Ralston and Daisy Geisenger. The club after the manner of our English cousins, held a very successful tea in the school auditorium which was transformed into a gay and attractive room fit can be donej on Saturday afternoon, November 23, 1935. The annual club operetta was cancelled to give way to an Indian Pageant with Eleanor Dolan as soloist. This pageant was the first part of the Easter Concert. In mentioning the Elgar Club one cannot help but name the man whose name was synonymous with its many successes: Mr. R. J. Staples has always exhibited unfailing patience and most capable leadership with the fairer sex who comprise this club.

9 THE EASTER CONCERT The Indians Are Coming and they came not in single spies but in battalions-the Elgar Club presented a first class Indian Pageant accompanied by the School Orchestra and featuring Eleanor Dolan, 4A, as soloist. Boys' Ballet or Glorifying the Canadian Male. To the lively strains of Mendelssohn's Spring Song our dashing Wampus Babies gave a scintillating display of Terpsichorean Art. This merry company was directed by Les Waller. Drama by 4A-Fantastic Flight: 4A, the successors of last year's Dramatic Club, presented something in the line of plays that was unique and different. Noah Boomer CHarold A. Hymanj a pacifist, inherits an armament works and plot develops therefrom. Rachael Resch portrayed Hope Tregoring, Isabel Hazen was Stella, Cliff Blackall appeared as Heatherfield, Glen Wade as Pither, Murray Westgate as News Reporter, and Don Kennedy as News Editor. The directors were Miss V. K. Macmillan and Cliff Blackall while the stage was managed by Esther Milner. It is our profound hope that conditions will be such as to warrant a Dramatic Club next year. Intermission proved to be very unpopular. Hysteria Cruise-An Original Musical Revue: Mirth! ! Melody! ! More Melody! ! This was a continuation of last yearls Night Owl and the spice of the program. All the modern songs were rendered in fine style by: Lorne Wickerson CCaptainj, Eleanor Dolan CMrs. Penelope Jones-Jones- Jonesb, Vic Erdelyan CThe Chefj, Evelyn MacLachlan, Murray Trimble, and Harry CGusD Guest. A girls' dance chorus held the males in the audience spellbound as they went into a new dance. A girls' Vaudeville Ensemble strained their vocal chords to the tune of Lights Out. Irene Watson and Lorne Wickerson hit new heights with a Russian dance specialty. The cast was supported by a crew who refused to Give up the Ship and two capable bouncers who handled the Disturbing Element, Art Wilson. The Good Ship Central pulled safely into harbour to the popular music of the Symphonic Dance Band. Our Concerts have always proved successful. A few years back the Freshmen were spotted and given contracts and we are happy to say that our Troubadours QSymphonic Dance Bandj were also spotted and straightway given a 13 week's radio contract. This year Darke Halliwas packed to capacity on both nights. People had to be turned away the second night after the S.R.O. sign was taken down. A Q This was unanimously voted as the best Central has put out. I

Qy to the request of the students through the Students' Council and partly to the willingness of the Staff to encour- age to blossom any dormant talent. Such literary societies are well adapted to Central's small auditorium so we can safely prognosticate their continuance in the future. SCCIALQISMJ BY GOOD MARX It was most truly said that All work and no play makes Johnny a dull boy. This annum, however, capable committees and whole- hearted co-operation on the part of the students and staff kept Johnny Centralian a very bright boy. We can justly boast of enjoy- ing ourselves at six exclusive dances. Besides these there was the Christmas Parties-fone for the freshies, one for the fresh seconds and a third one combined for the third years and the adult seniorsj. They were marked by ice cream, pop and refreshments given out gratis on the Students' Council. These dances were characterized by an abundance of novelties, good prizes, entertainment, a refreshment booth, sociable students, and lately, our own Troubadours. Two of them were for an uncon- tested cause-for this Annual and the last one on April 3rd was com- plimentary to those who gave of their time and effort towards the success of the Easter Concert. Truly a banner year for socials, let it be a milestone for all forth- coming years! 81
