STUDENT UNION PRESIDENTS ' MESSAGES All good things must come to an end. Most of us at present do not feel this way about college until we have passed commencement day and have gone out on our own. But eventually we all realize that our college days were one of the good things in iife. Every year at M.R.C. something new is added or something is taken out of moth balls and given a fresh start, and this year is no exception. First, we now have a president for each semester. I was against this at first, but wouldn ' t have missed my term in office for anything. Secondly, our Cabaret Dance. We had many obstacles to overcome in connection with this event, and the spirit of the students who gave a helping hand was greatly appreciated. For myself, I have never seen a college dance like it — simply an overwhelming success. Thirdly, came the Booster Club, which sponsored the Sport ' s Rally with Sugarfoot Anderson. Due to a little persuasion we had a splendid turnout. We were pleased to hear the presses rolling as the Press Club commenced work on a new monthly paper, The Acquaintance . We hope they continue with the good work. Then the Drama Club, featuring Mr. Kelly and his famous group of players, has been doing a wonderful job. I wish to express my humble thanks to the Council and the Faculty for their support in a most enjoyable semester. I am only sorry that my days at M.R.C. have come to an end. To the students I wish you every success in whichever field of endeavour holds your future. Adios, Wm. GRANT HINCHEY, • c • a e As June and examination time draw near, I cannot help but feel depressed at the thought of leaving Mount Royal. I, along with many others, will always have a warm spot in my heart for old M.R.C. This year has created for us, many pleasant memories. No one will forget the first performance of our very attractive but very nervous cheerleaders who mistakenly cheered for Joe Bush instead of Ray Temple; nor the expression on Maureen ' s face when she was presented with her gift of monogrammed lingerie at the Engineers ' Ball; nor the tame pigeon who went wild in the room of one of our cheerleaders; and of course not the raid on the boys ' dorm. The College will suffer a great loss when Mrs. Layton leaves in the Spring, but for multitudes of M.R.C. students the mention of Mrs. Steevie will bring back fond recollections of a wonderful lady. During the time we have spent at the College we have not only improved our knowledge, but also our characters. True, we have made many mistakes — I will never be able to forget the time that I used an ain ' t for an aren ' t during an anouncement in an assembly — but by benefitting by them do we improve ourselves. In closing, I wish to thank the members of the Students ' Council and the different committees who have worked so hard to make our Students ' Union a success; and to express my sincere appreciation to Dean Collett, and the rest of the staff, for their guidance and help.
