CAREERS NIGHT By Elliott Whiteman Last year Patterson Collegiate came out with a new idea: Careers’ Night. It proved to be such a success that it was decided to hold it again this year. This year’s main speaker was Mr. Frank Brobst. managing director of Gelatin Products. Limited, of Windsor. Mr. Brobst delivered a very interesting talk on vocations in general. Following this, the conference leaders were introduced to the audience. This general session was concluded with the showing of the sound film “Aptitudes and )c- cupations.” This meeting in the auditorium lasted from eight o’clock to nine o’clock and the next hour, nine to ten o’clock, was devoted to the vocational meetings themselves. The general procedure was for the speaker to give an outline of his trade or profession from every point of view, this t be followed by a question-and-answer period. This method has proved to he convenient and practical. Everyone who attended a conference came out with a clearer understanding of the occupation to which he was considering devoting his life. Among the group speakers (followed by names of group chairmen) were: Chemistry with William II. Arison (Shirley Rosenberg) : Engineering with Harold f. Cham¬ bers (Dick Douglas) : Interior Decoration with Miss Jean McLean (Marguerite Nielson); Journalism with Harold Vaughan (Jack tchison); Laboratory Technician with Miss Florence Gourlay (Kay James); Law with W. Y. Wright (Gordon Pater¬ son): Medicine with Dr. C. R. Weber (Louis Mil- burn): Ministry with Rev. Robert Young. Ph.D.. B.D. (Donna Waffle); Nursing with Miss Mabel Hoy (Gloria Higgins); Optometry with Geo. S. Pringle (S. Sharpe) : Radio Broadcasting with Rudd Lynch (Orv. Perrault); Teaching with T. C. White (Shirley Campbell): Dietetics with Miss Betty Lillie (Wan a Buckley); Pharmacy with . M Paterson (Paul Stefan). After the meetings every¬ one went to see a book display. Refreshments were then served. AH in all. it was a very enjoyable and worthwhile evening. Careers’ Night was only the highlight of a whole Year’s study of Vocational Guidance, which is on the curriculum for both grade nine and grade twelve, and is taught under the able direction of Miss Coughlin, Mr. Mencel and Mr. ( rr. In this course, students are given questionnaires and tests to deter¬ mine their interests and abilities. For instance, many students in all grades have taken the Ruder Interest Test, which is followed by a talk with the truidance instructor, in which the student’s interests are centered. Much of the time in this course is spent in studying the three outline tests: (1) You and Your Future (2) The Producing Occupations and (3) The Service Occupations. In these and other ways the pupil narrows down his choice of occupation so that, when he leaves school, he should have at least a rough idea of what his aptitudes are, and how he can use them. COMMENCEMENT DANCE After the ceremonies in the auditorium were com¬ pleted, the graduates, the students, and their friends, flocked to the gymnasium for the annual commence¬ ment dance. Thanks to the efforts of the Social Committee, the gym was rejuvenated with artistic decorations. Streamers of purple and green formed a colourful canopy over the entire gym. and with the soft lights and music an exceptional dance was accomplished. Jack Rowland who was about to have an operation on hi hand looked very worried. “What is worrying you,” asked the doctor. “Will I be able to play ihe piano alter ibis operation.” lIn patient queried Page Twelve
