FROLIC COMMITTEE This year after much hard work, the Frolic Committee presented the Senior High with a varied group of dances, some very successful, and others not quite so well attended. Starting off with a record dance, Bulldog-a-go-go, they fol¬ lowed this with a very successful Shondels Dance in December. In February, at the Pep Week Dance, pretty Jackie Bain was crowned Snow Queen. On April 22, at the masquerade dance, a very select group viewed the crowning of beautiful Queen Myrna Klusiewich and debonair King Dale Wilkie. Chairmen .

WEEK THAT WAS ’66 From February 7th to 11th, the second annual Week That as held first place in the thoughts of Churchillites. Monday morning, starting the week with sleep enthusiasm, Tie rockus music of the Dawn Dance shook the school. Later, after lunc ies had been eaten, students and teachers alike poured into the gyn to cheer for their respective teams. One rowdy game later, the teac ers emerged victorious, boasting a score of 34-22. On Tuesday, hundreds were entertained by the musical offer ig$ of ten of Churchill’s best singers, accompanied by guitars. his success Flootenanny was of great profit to the Junior Red Cross. After school the next day, Churchill’s own “Kynde” played op hits for active Junior Highs who attended the Soc Hop. Much enjo ed, it left few teachers willing to try our dances again, after suci a tiring effort. Thursday noon found the auditorium packed with enthusiastic supporters of our two star volley ball teams — again both teach srs and students. All three games were won by the staff — as usual. Ending the week, Friday’s dance presented Churchill High with another pretty Miss W.T.W., Jackie Bain. Entertainment by the teach rs’ band, Mr. Madder, Mr. McGlenen, Mr. Currie and Mr. Goldring, al¬ lowed by more of the students ' own brand of music brought to a close the happy “Week That Was” of 1966. Many thanks must go to the hard-working convenor, Roger Belton, and to Lome Sproule, who helped. PAGE 62

GRAD ’65 In the words of Marguarite Keeley, the valedictorian. Graduation 1965 truly represented the threshold of a new adventure . Following tradition, closing exercises were held in Crescent-Fort Rouge Church, where well-deserved scholarships and merit awards were presented. The work of convenors Elaine Forsythe and David Hill, ably assisted by many co-workers, produced a most suc¬ cessful banauet in delightful surroundings. Our prosaic lunchroom was transformed into a mini¬ ature South Pacific island, with tropical flowers, vines, a fountain, mural, and a thatched hut where cooling liquids were dispensed. Later, a hula dance, followed by the teachers skit, heightened the effect of the luscious setting and provided a welcome interlude. The gowns of the girls were gorgeous, with their escorts fabulous in formal attire. The subtle wit of the M.C. Roger Belton and the music of Lew Dickson ' s Band contributed much to the evening. Altogether, Grad ' 65 was a meaningful and joyous occasion, long to be remembered. ELECTIONS 1965-1966 This year ' s elections saw Carol Quarn- strom and Glenda Stefaniuk vying for Vice-President and Peter Stringham and Michael Trevillion for President. Along with the usual crazy posters and parades, there were several innovations. One of these was a rally held in the auditorium by Peter. On the day of the election speeches, Carol displayed great ingenuity by making up a new speech on the spot after she had lost the original. All candidates and their campaign managers spoke very ably. However, the next day, Michael and Carol triumphed to become Churchill ' s new Presi¬ dent and Vice-President. PAGE 64
