Art Work Slio P After a number of disappointing seasons, the old Art Club was replaced this year by the more successful Art Work Shop. It was decided to limit club membership to twelve active members, with a waiting list ready to replace any uninterested artist. Because each member fears losing his place with the group, he is inclined to aim for regular attendance. One of the club ' s main functions has been to provide decorations for various school dances as well as to produce posters for other school organizations. The workshop ' s main achievement was an Egyptian Mural (thirteen feet by thirteen feet), complete in a record four hours. It added much colour to the Graduation Dance. MEMORIAL TO THE ART CLUB: The club members of 1958 collected funds for two new art show cases. They will serve as a reminder - of the best days of the club. A special word of thanks should go to Mr. Allison and the Woodworking Shop, Mr. Woods and the Electrical Department, and Mr. Whyte for their help in building and installing the cases. Jhe Lai cu Under the supervision of Mr. Lewis, the Delta Camera Club has been privileged to capture on film memorable events at dances, sport activities, and novelty projects such as the Sadie Hawkins Day that were promoted in our school. Arlene Dawson, the club ' s secretary, arranged a shooting trip to Gage Park as well as to the Proctor and Gamble Company in Hamilton. Many ot the members obtained unique and unusual pictures of various machines and materials that were employed in the manufacture of the finished products. We certainly enjoyed the airplane flight that circled Hamilton and enabled us to shoot some interesting pictures of our fair city. This flight was arranged by Ron Widdifield. The more experienced members opened special classes, in which new members were instructed in the fine art of developing pictures and negatives. The increase in membership of our club certainly shows that a photographic hobby is not only an ex- citing but also a practical way to earn some extra money. B. Reeve, M. Maurice, J. Strecker, W.

Xjowlina ( .lub Bowling was held again this year at the Skyway Lanes every Monday at 2 p. m. This year it was recognized as a school activity, all difficulties with the Central Executive being smoothed out. The execu- tive consisted of President Wayne Gate, Vice-President Gary Spoar and Treasurer Vicky Seeburger Because of his position as the school vice-president, Wayne Gate vacated the leadership in favour of Gary Spoar. The members were divided among eight teams, whose captains were: Gary Spoar, Jim Muir, Bob Lee, Rich Belluz, Bob Brown, George Lane, Jim Wentworth, and Bob Harrison. The teacher- counsellor was Mr. Ahrens, who graciously accepted the job even though his schedule was already well filled. At the beginning of the year there was a good turn-out; but, owing to the lack of student interest and par- ticipation after the Christmas exams, bowling had to be cancelled. Thanks to the few students who faithfully supported bowling to the last week! r. A. Woods, I. Smith, G. Forbes, W.Sowran, H. Vredeveld, Shapka, J. McMillan, Doug Wood, B. Holmes. L adet -.orpi and fcifle J earn The Cadet Corps and Rifle Team have been idle so far this year. Only two teacher officers are left in Delta; Glendale has two. Dr. Price was asked to arrive at a solution. As of Jan- uary, no solution. Cadets this year have, how- ever, taken part in two auditoriums, a Remem- brance Day and a Tri-Service programme.

We started it off with the very success- ful Delta Beanie Day , at which time almost every student wore a beanie. Result: almost eight hundred beanies were sold. On October 31 the Red Cross, along with the Current Affairs Club, dressed in Halloween costumes to raise enough money to adopt an orphan and Delta thus became a foster parent. At the termination of the November exams, the Pizza Prance was held. The profits from this dance went to buy toys for the Hamilton United Services, which gave the toys out at Christmas to needy children. During the year donations were sent to Care, Red Cross Crippled Children ' s Fund, the Mountain Sana- tarium, and the Red Cross Dental Aid Fund. On behalf of the Red Cross, I would like to thank all the students of Delta for their support, and I hope that their support will continue in the years to come. S. nior C xecutive One day late in September, at a meeting in room 216, someone in the crowd said, Quid faciamus? , and was immediately answered by Miss Snell, Concilium constituere debemus. ; Miss Plewman, Nous devrions faire un comite ' . ; and Mr. Stevenson, 163 x $2.00 . . . . And so, it came to pass that on that day was born the Senior Executive for 1960-61. This inexperienced but devout crew managed to turn out what was acclaimed to be the most stupendous, amazing Grad-Dance and Banquet ever held within these hallowed halls. Even the Montgomery team deigned to risk denting their fins in city traffic just to attend this magnificent affair. A casual dance, ' The Sahara Swing ' was held the next night. The group then retired until Grad-Pin time, when it was again forced into action. Thi was a most successful Senior Executive. D. Feat hers tone, I. Smith, L. Martin, W. Skaret, C. Dinning, D.
