They play semi-classics, marches, waltzes and novelettes. Mr. Tufts has proven himself a great addition to the musical lite oi City Park. This year they played before and during the intermissions at the Operetta and Drama Night, and also at the Trustee's Convention at Tech. They are featured in the Variety Show. We hope that the orchestra will continue next year and also that it will perform more often. Come on, all oi you who play instruments, join again and give us more next year.

42 THE PARK BENCH some very helpful suggestions from her, the cast moved to Regina for two hectic, tiring, but happy days. Here the play was not quite as successful, missing the mark by three or four points. But, so we wouldn't come home empty-handed, NEIL HARRIS went madder than ever and brought home the cup for the male actor. Congratulations, NEIL and may you work with more than match boxes next time. With nothing more to say I'll make a dramatic exit-So long. -SHEILA GORDON. ff-1'- lrwtev-Collegiate Night Something new in the line of student entertainment came forth this year-Inter Collegiate Night. The four schools got together and, by each contributing something, they turned out an evenings entertainment for each of the collegiates. Of the many items contributed two were particularly outstanding. A group of Nutana boys presented a Hawaiin Dance. Their costumes, typical of those worn by the native women of Waikaikai, set the audience in fits of laughter. Technically the performance was not as well done as some others but every blunder sent the audience rolling further down the aisles. The climax came when, made for the weaker sex, one costume broke under male treatment. Another better performance was put on by EARLE ELLIOTT'S orchestra. More than one City Park student has boasted of its home. With PETE KILLEY as Master of Ceremonies, I-IAZEL MEYERS as vocalist, and DAVE CLARK as drummer, the result could be nothing but the best. Truly we are proud of them. Bedford's contribution was in the form of a play which brought out the ability cf their talented students. The scene was the opening of a Nite Club. Hat check girls, cigarette girls and even the head waiter put on the floor show. The club, corn- plete with orchestra and customers gave some excellent amusement. Tech presented us with a show of song and dance, as well as a chorus number Songs of United Nations. NVith everyone doing their bit the evening was very successful. -SHEILA GORDON. ff'-l Mr. EGIlY1 Wh9H water becomes ice, what important change takes place? Sasseville- Change in price, sir. Bob Thorvaldson- The nerve of that streetcar conductor! He glared at me as if I hadn't paid any fare. Howard Baldwin- What did you do then? Bob T.- I glared back as if I had. Angry parent- While you were bidding my daughter good-night, did it ever dawn on you- -- Art Potts- Certainly not sir! I never stayed as late as that. The old man was sad. It used to be that he could walk around the block daily. Now when he was only half way around, he felt so tired, he had to turn and come back.
