NINETEEN FORTY-SIX 29 BOYS' HI-Y The Garneau Boys' Hi-Y Club was organized shortly after Christmas and is now functioning as a permanent school activity. The Club has done remarkably well for a new school and it may be said that our Hi-Y Club is one of the largest in the city. However, I regret to say that the club is made up entirely of grade eleven boys. I hope that next year will see the grade ten boys taking an interest in Hi-Y activities. Upon the forming of the club the first important business was the election of officers. The boys elected were: Gordon Linney, vice-presidentg David Fawcett, secretary and Sandy Holmes, treasurer. The first major undertaking of the Club was the Fashion Shown at Garneau's Talent Lit fMon. Feb. 25j. The Show was a success and the boys were very pleased about it. Then came the sad day of initiations. Many of Edmonton's citizens were amazed at these outlandish creatures running loose in the streets. In all, it was a big success. Central Council of the Boys' Hi-Y for the city of Edmonton recognized our Club and as a result two delegates were sent in the persons of Harry Saslow and Bill Johnson. To top it off the Garneau Hi-Y was asked to attend the Alberta Hi-Y Conference fApril 26, 27 and ZSQ, a singular honor. I hope this outline will give you a slight idea of the fast moving Garneau Hi-Y Club. I am sure that in the future this club will grow in size and importance. BILL JOHNSCN, President. Boxing and Wrestling Club The Boxing and Wrestling Club proved to be a successful club at Garneau High this term. Under the supervision of Mr. Pilkington the club worked-out Wednesday noons from twelve thirty to one-thirty. Classes alternated each week between boxing and wrestling. At the first meeting Lloyd Konashewsky was elected Sec.-Treasurer. No fees were charged as the boxing gloves were furnished by Len Beatty and Mr. Bird. Four weeks in March and April were spent on a Boxing and Wrestling Tournament . Many crafty fellows threw everything, but the rule book, at one another. There was a large entry in both fields and no one, was seriously hurt. The Final results were: Boxing-Lightweight, Charles Tweedg Middleweight, Ramsey Smithg Heavyweight, jack Collins. Wrestling, Lightweight: After wrestling to a 1'1 fall tie, John Drever came back to overpower Lloyd Konashewsky, to win. Heavyweight: Johnny Clark had to use every trick he knew to overpower Bill Tkachuk in two straight falls. Clark won the first fall, then both boys wrestled to a draw in the second round. Then Clark came back to take the second fall. To Mr. Pilkington: On behalf of the Club I would like to thank you for the fine coaching you gave to the boys. We appreciate your spending many lunch hours down in the gym helping us. From the club we say, Thanks for a job well done. . JOHNNY CLARK, President.
