THE VOYAGEUR ULD BUYS' ASSDCIATID N ICKERING COLLEGE OLD BOYS' ASSOCIATION has now been definitely Orf ganized since the fall of 1929. Its members are spread throughout Canada and United States. Being a very young organization the various executives in the past have felt it unnecessary tO formulate any constitution. This past year the new executive have been working on this angle and will have some interesting ideas tO pass on tO the succeeding executive. It has been keenly felt by many of the Clld Boys that such a constitution should be drawn up immediately in Order to appeal to the Older members of the organizaf tion. The school has been very cofoperative to date in helping the organization plan any functions which they felt would be of interest. It is tO be hoped that such a constitution will carry with it many of the ideals that are imbedded in the philosophy of the school. Many of the former students of the College are now out in the world, and making Outstanding contributions in the professional, the academic and the business realm. It seems only fair, that these members should like to connect themselves up with the Association in a more active way and give promotion to the furtherance of an ideal constitution. With the beginning of the new year we are hoping, therefore, that the Pickering College Qld Boys' Association will start out with a wellfformulated constitution which shall give inspiration to one and all. We have attempted below to give a quick glance at some of the Cld Boys and to tell mostly what they are doing!
