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

This academic club was formed upon the suggestion of Mr, White, and functioned smoothly under his able guidance, During the school year, club activities were directed towards the attaining of a greater fund of knowledge in the field of Psychology: to this end members worked diligently. Many individual mem- bers prepared specific topics for presentation, These papers stimulated a great deal of discussion for which all members prepared themselves through private study in the subject area, Further knowledge was also gained by viewing films and making visits to the Ontario Hospital and the West Bayfield School for Retarded Children, Some of the topics readily covered were the nature of intelligence, learning theories, and mental retardation, We, the members of this newly formed club, feel our activities have been both enjoyable and worthwhile, We hope the study we have undertaken will help us to be more responsive and understanding teachers of the future, 61
