f - M a as 0 M ' ri . Y sr v .B.T.C. Choir At 6:59, this evening, the choir will meet to rehearse here in the auditorium, Does that sound familiar? lt will to all those who managed to get to assembly every Monday morning in time to hear Mr, Curtis' announcements. It was even more familiar to those who arrived in the auditorium for the 6:59 p, m, rehearsal. Our first performance took place in the auditorium here at the college at a Christmas Assembly. Our songs consisted of several Christmas tunes, and of course, Jesus Walked This Lonesome Valley , one of Mr, Curtis' favourites, Our visit to sing for the old folks in Casselholme during February and later to the Ontario Hospital were also highlights of the year, At the close of the spring term we finished off the year's activities by singing at the N, B, T, C. closing exercises. We appreciate the work Mr. Curtis, our director, put into the choir, He warned us about the hard work that was in store for us, but he did not tell us that there was satisfaction plus enjoyment in the work as well, The choir executive for 1966-67 consisted of: Linda Scott President Dineke Schippers Secretary-Treasurer Harry Kleinhuis Attendance Secretary Mrs, Janet Smith Librarian Lodzia Pietruszka, Nancy Thompson and Nancy Bradt Pianists 2,1 1, H' W

The Students' Council The year 1966-67 has been a good and active one for the Students' Council, There have been more weekly dances then ever before and these have been sponsored by each form in turn, There were also two large dances run solely by the Students' Council, October saw the Hallowe'en Dance make a great impact on the College, aided by the Rags and Richmonds Band. Then in December, the Christmas Formal proved to be a smashing success with all forms taking an active part in making it a most memorable occasion. We have now entered 1967, Canada's Centennial Year, and the Council, in keeping in line with our 100th Birthday, sponsored the Winter Carnival, during the weekend of February 24th and 25th, when we showed our true College spirit to North Bay, Games, a hockey game against the Masters, and students, dances, ice sculptures, on the Centennial theme will all aid in making this the greatest winter carnival in the history of North Bay. Skating parties, more dances, hootenannies, and many other activities highlighted the rest of the year, Finally, in May, the College held its Graduation Ball, with the afternoon of May 18th being the time for joy, as our parents and friends flocked to the Capitol Theatre for presentations. Then in the evening a supper and dance followed at the Elks Club. This was the major event of the year and was enhanced by the presence of the honoured guest speaker, a man of great importance to Canada in this our Centennial Year. In closing l would like to add that none of these events could have been possible without you, the student body, digging in and giving 100070 to make them overwhelming successes. Thank You, W es MCN eice President Students' Council 58
