p % £) JUNIOR MATHEMATICS CLUB There are at present, twelve students of Grade 9 enrolled in this club. The object of the club is to give students a general look into the field of mathematics and give them a chance to discover the uses of the mathematics in our everyday world. To date, three students have prepared and given their own talks to other club members on various topics ranging from the history and development of the abacus to the use of modern adding machines.

Yes year upon year the library club members continue the tedious work of binding, covering and cataloguing books. As well, these people must maintain a quiet efficiency throughout the library. Granted these activities are not nearly as spectacular or romantic as charging through an opposing school ' s football team for the winning touchdown nor is the work as strenuous- but it is certainly more enduring. If even only for once a year Hats off to the Library Club .

CURLING CLUB Back Row, 1. to r. R. Shaver, S. Skinner, Bottom 1. to r. S. Kearns, S. Nicholson, N. Munson Curling at Hillcrest is becoming more popular as this year the Curling Club mem- bership almost doubles. All members especially enjoyed the all day bonspeil that was held. Our bonspeil team put up good shows as the boys lost in the final game of the Schoolboy Bonspeil and the girls who were defending their city championship lost in the final game. FOLK DANCE Top Row 1. to r. D. Showalter, T. Swan, I. Wade, C. Weagant, D. Simpson, T. Mercer, Bottom Row, D. Herr, K. Evans, A. Lauber, L. Swan, K. Toth, J. Shroeder, L. Squire, V. Pulkinnin, Missing: R. Frezan, J. Jury FOLK DANCING CLUB For the concert this year, the folk dancing club staged a gypsy scene under the direction of Mr. Davey. Choreography was arranged by Kathy Toth. ART CLUB Top Row 1. to r. I . Fox, M. Bristow, B. Fox, Bottom Row, N. Unal, J. Schroeder, P. Myhill, S. Fell, R. Mikkanen, C. Millard The impossible we do immediately; miracles take a little longer. The Art Club ' s activities consisted of prop and Set Designs for The Tempest ,, Showtime 65 ' and The Man Who Came To Dinner . The lesser activities consisted of decorations, displays and advertising for various clubs including the Dauphin Players. The Concert was the greatest accomplishment. There were many headaches and sore backs. Sets were forever being changed. All the sets were mobile and they were: The N4oody Gypsy Scene, dark greens and blues with a real gypsy wagon. The Battlehymn Scene, New York Scene, of towering sky scrapers, a Tropical Island scene complete with palms and an exotic mountain, and of course the famous Dolly Scene . For The Man Who Came to Dinner the problems were numerous. The scene called for a conventional living room and dining room of the 1930 ' s. This was the first Box Set, (Completely Enclosed). Few people realize the ingenuity and cleverness that is required on each members ' part when doing stage work. Make a cannon, construct an oal bannister, decorate a window, create illusion after illusion and do it NOW and do it quickly . We are proud of the fact that during the history of the Art Club we have only scrapped two sets and started over. Almost everone in the club will agree that this kind of creative work brings results that more than justify the hard, long hours of labour that go into our extra-curricular activity.

They cheered during hail, sleet, rain and even football games. We tried to bring a little school spirit to the teams in order to help spur them on to victory. Among other things we entered the cheerleading contest spon- sored by C.F.R.A. The competition was keen, so we lost I Better luck next year, girls 1 DANCE COMMITTEE This committee was responsible for the organization of all Students Council Dances. It is in no small way a cause of the out- standing reputation which our dances hold. Angela Smiley was in charge of decora- tions and food, while Vic Peterson took care of all its other arrangements.

The Club also canvassed for the Heart Fund in February, as well as making substantial contributions to Care . The Club itself again established a school in Gautemala in conjunction with the District Project. To supplement it ' s usual fund-raising ef- forts, the club sponsored a very successful Hootenany and a dance. The most interesting of all its projects was of course the Key Club film. The film was shown not only at the school but at the Key Club Convention at Easter. A large percentage of the Key Club ' s ef- fort was directed towards the acquisition of a school flag-pole. Besides being active in the school the Club played host to the divisional caucus. The pub- licity and public relations for the Easter Con- vention was also handled by our Club.
