The Red Cross Club Christmas 1967 was a memorable one for sixty-eight children at the Longlac Indian Day School because of the efforts of the Red Cross Committee. Through the hard work of this committee and the enthusiastic response of the student body, gifts were sent to the girls and boys at the Longlac School to help brighten an otherwise dull Christmas Day. The delight of the children was reflected in the thank- you letters received after Christmas and proudly displayed in the halls in the college. Although this was the only major project the Red Cross Club had time to deal with this year it was considered extremely successful.

Le Club Frangais Essayons de souligner en moins d'une page, espace qui nous est reserve, les ACTIVITES du groupe de francais. En octobre et en novembre nous avons profite de nos rencontres pour monter quelques saynetes que nous avons presentees a la salle academique en decembre. Au programme figuraient les numeros suivants: QUI PERD GAG-NE, LE REQUISITIONNAIRE, quelques poemes et chants mimes, un film com- mente et comme piece de resistance L'ECOLE NORMALE DE 1927 ou nous nous en sommes donnes a coeur joie a caricaturer les professeurs actuels. Depuis Noel nous avons essaye nos ailes dans d'autres domaines. Les poetes a 1'oeuvre ont su creer de veritables chef-d'oeuvres. Nous le groupe de francais tenons a nous distinguer, non comme groupe a part, mais voulons bien nous inserer au sein de tout groupe existant, et par notre gaiete et notre enthousiasme, etre de vrais ambassadeurs de la belle langue seconde que nous comptons enseigner des septembre prochain.

The organization began its yearly activities with an address by our president to the student body on United Nations day, October 24, Due to good student participation, our UNICEF fund raising- campaign and our U.N, Christmas Card sales were a success. On December 10, Human Rights Day, our members gladly accepted an invitation to participate in a panel discussion on prejudice and discrimination held by the United Nations Association of North Bay in conjunction with human rights planning committees throughout Northern Ontario at the Public Library Auditorium, Our members also constructed a meaningful bulletin board display on the main floor of the college concerning human rights which is often conspicuous with its absence throughout the world. Our weekly noon hour meetings involve stimulated debates about important issues. We are certain that with continued support by our members and the interest of the student body as a whole, the club will carry on for the remainder of the year as a great credit to North Bay Teachers' College.
