As the last strains of our school song faded to the rafters of the King Memorial United Church, the Glee Club felt a swallow stick in their throats. This was the last time we would be seen standing proud and tall before our teacher and friend to sing so joyously our school song that would remain in our hearts forever. The past year has been one to remember. In the Fall when we began our roundelays in vigorous spirit, a pro¬ gram was planned that was one not to be forgotten for the Remembrance Day Service. The girls opened with “Lift Thine Eyes” which brought a tear to many an eye. The boys joined in with their new-found bass voices to harmonize with the girls in the “Crimond”, done according to the melody sung for the Royal Wedding, with Dianne Penner and Elizabeth Zaru¬ sinski singing the descant. Shortly after this program the girls of the Glee Club were asked to come to a practice for a City Hydro Carol Broadcast which would be held just before the Christmas season. One blushing fellow, Ted Starr, was asked to be at every practice to be King Wenceslas on the broadcast. The part of the page was sung by Janet Hicks. After Christmas, the Glee Club was asked to sing at one of the Home and School meetings. The program was along the lines of the Christmas music done on the Hydro broadcast and included some old carol favour¬ ites, such as “O Holy Night” and “Silent Night”. Practices for graduation began in the last week of April after the opera and the Easter exams. Graduation Day dawned with the students making last minute preparations for the banquet and dance. Selections chosen for the Graduation Service were “Non Nobis Domine”, “The Emperor’s Hymn”, and You’H Never Walk Alone”. Bob Robbie sang “God Go Along With You”. The program ended with the singing of the school song.

There is always an air of excitement while casting is going on, and most of us were looking forward either to taking part in the production or at least to seeing it at Tec. Voc. where it was to take place on February 3rd, 4th and 5th in the evening with a matinee on February 2nd. The day for auditions finally arrived and when all the principal parts were allotted and the choruses arranged, the long gruelling practices still lay ahead. It is to the credit of our directors, Miss Marjorie Colpitts and Miss Jessie Harrow, that the operetta turned out to be such a success. There must have been days when they wondered if it was worth all the time and effort being put into it, but a sense of humour on their part and some of the antics of the cast kept things on a fairly even keel and the final results proved quite satisfactory. The operetta was well attended at each performance and the flirtatious antics of the judge, Abe Anhang; the characterizations of the handsome defendant, Bob Rob¬ bie; the exuberant quotations of the lawyer, Ted Starr; the two beauties in the roll of the bride, Elizabeth Zarusinski and Dianne Penner; the gentle warbling of the public and the boisterous decision on the jury all helped to add to the success of the perfo rmances. The members of the cast realized that the success was due not only to the part they played but also to the work of the various committees, such as make-up, stage crews, costumes, ushers, ticket sellers, who all contributed their efforts in any way. Many of us will never again have a chance to take part in a real live stage show or thrill to the mysteries of being backstage. Therefore this is a memory of our school days which will be treasured in our book of souvenirs as the curtain falls on this phase of our lives. 46
