1 ff uimD'urQ QaUDU.U't4 age' xxx N October 3, the Camera Club for 1934 a11d 1935 was organized with about thirty-five prospective members present. The following ofiicers were elected: Honorary President: Mr, Henry: President: Bill Scottg Vice-President: Grant Smed- morg Secretary: Kathleen Lacey: Treasurer: Jack Borland. A committee composed of Iris Borland. Gordon Pammett, Bill Turner and Horace Steer, was also chosen. Although in other years the Camera Club had professional photographers as its guest speakers, due to the Christmas rush it was thought better to leave these for the meetings in the new year. As a result, all the meetings were conducted by mem- bers of the club. Seven meetings were held before Christmas. Among the first meetings were those dealing with the fundamental topics, which are printing and developing. Others included Diaphragm Stops and hlargins and Borders. This year the Camera Club has had several meetings which were of great interest to the senior as well as the junior members. Among the first of these was a talk and demonstration to show how to use the Bccomar Camera which the club purchased last year to take the Echoes pictures. This Camera is also lent out to the more experienced members, and can be used for copying pictures and making Christmas Cards. The most interesting meeting of the year was divided into two sections. One of the senior members gave a demonstration on Dry-mounting and another demonstrated how silhouettes are taken. The first meeting of the new year was devoted to a talk and demonstration on enlarging. This year the Camera Club purchased a smaller box camera, which is quite simple to operate and takes sixteen pictures on one roll instead of the usual eight. This camera also is loaned out to the members and has proven very popular. A clock which has long been needed in the dark room has also been purchased. The first contest of the year was held in the hall. A prize was offered for the best picture of the school and was won by Grant Smedmor. This picture was used on the school Christmas Card. As in other years. Mr. Bond. who is one of the Camera Clubs best friends. has kindly oi'l'ered his prize for the ammal contest which closes in lfarch and is now well under way. The prize. a Parker pen and pencil set, is won by the person gaining the highest number of points on the pictures he or she enters. Another important function of the Camera Club during the past th1'ee years has been the taking of all the pictures for the Et-hoes. This year 111: Henry. Grant Smedmor, Bill Scott and Jack Borland have given unsparingly of their time to make the pictures a success. The club wishes to extend its appreciation to lNIr. Henry and all the others who have been instrumental in making all the meetings so successful and interesting. .-58..

As well as playing at all the school functions. the school orchestra has assumed the duty of playing twice weekly at the morning assemblies. And now we give you some data on the personnel of our orchestra. There has been fairly regular attendance at the practices, but occasionally one or two are not there. It has been noticed also that whenever our cornet. player, Dave Wilson, is absent, the clarinet player, John Kitney, who is a great friend of l7ave's. is generally away too. But it was learnt for a fact recently why they need each other so much. Dave went to the dentists to have a tooth extracted and our brave hero. John. went along to hold his hand. Ye Editor of this magazine displays no mean ability on a 'cello in our fair orchestra. Ted Everitts is a new attraction in the orchestra, llc plays a trombone. Yve are glad to welcome Bill Moorhead, who played in the Vul- legiate School Orchestra in Sault Ste. Blarie. Yve take this opportunity of expressing to ltr. YY:-ames our sincere thanks and appreciation for the many willing hours he has spent in our interests. Also we would like to mention the names of the following ex-members who have assisted us on several occasions: Stanley Northrop A.T.C.M.. Annabelle Herd. violins: Jack Tele ford, pianog Paul ltlinicola. saxaphonei Harold Xvilson. cornet. VVe trust the orchestra has contributed to the success of the functions it has attended throughout the school year. We also hope it will continue to maintain in future years, the prestige it has acquired in the days gone by. First Violins-Russell Huggins. Bob Huffman. Bill Moorliead. Kathleen Tlizickeray.
