Again we broadcast the sayings and reveal the activities throughout the School. Again we bring to you a Year Book, after a long period of silence, the official Tech-Art Record of 1932-1933. Last year, we regret to say, it was impossible to publish a Year Book. This year, rather than experi¬ ence the same disappointment, we were given the privilege of producing a smaller edition. It is an experiment and, we hope, a successful one, in issuing this copy of the Tech-Art Record. However, we, the Year Book Staff, sincerely hope that it serves its purpose, not only as a memoir of happy hours and numerous friendships, but also in keeping before every individual the more serious side of life. The EDITOR. Page Five O N THE occasion of the publishing of its. Year Book, I wish to congratulate the Students’ Association on this further very tangible evidence of the vigorous life of the Provincial Institute of Technology and Art, The rapid but natural and wholesome growth of the Institute since its beginning has been very gratifying, and justifies the prediction that a wonderful work lies before it in training the hands and minds of the future citi¬ zens of Alberta for their part in the development of this great Province which is their heritage. PERRIN BAKER, Minister of Education. Pag ' e Six IL .TECH-ART RECORD yA v v ' ' Message from the Principal T he task of issuing a Year Book in these days is not a light one. I wish to congratulate the Staff which has been responsible for bringing the project to a successful issue. The year at the Institute has been an interesting one, even if it has been difficult. There have been no curtailments in the extra curricular activities of the students, the Annual Banquet and the Year Book being major events. The year in athletics has been eventful, the hockey team winning the major honors in re-capturing the Picardy Cup as champions in the Scholastic League. To the InteiTnediate basketball team should go congratulations for the good showing made in their League. The Dramatic Club is worthy of special men¬ tion in cahing attention to its success in presenting their three-act play en¬ titled “Safety First.” On the whole the Institute will close this year with a record in instructional services. May success attend the effort of every student who has contacted with the program of the Institute during the year! If jobs are hard to secure, may each remember that the greatest satisfaction comes from achieving victoi’y against greatest odds. To those v ' ho go out to their life work go the best wishes of the Institute for their progress and happiness. May knowl¬ edge and skill be larger quantities in personal equipment because of days spent at the Institute, and may they realize that character and personal values are among the most valuable assets that contribute to success. Yk G. CARPENTER, Principal Page Seven - Editorial - We have heard the rumor that we are about to experience a depression. A depression, not of the local type, but one which will be of such proportions that the entire world will feel it. If such a thing should befall us, should we not be prepared to meet it? Are we not the ones, who, in a few years, will be tilling the soil, running the power plants, sur¬ veying and mining the province, flying the planes, repairing the machines or drawing that which is to be drawn ? Should we not be electing the governments, also ? Then, with the added knowledge fand ex¬ perience we have obtained from our school, our fathers, and our history, should we not be able to face such conditions as are forecasted? Is it not a privilege to face problems with which no other genera¬ tion has yet had to cope? Can we not be pioneers of a greater world, rather than of a larger one? Only when we realize we are faced with great changes can we see the necessity for wider knowl¬ edge and thaining. Who will be holding the positions iu such a depression other than the well-edu¬ cated or well-trained men? So let us prepare ourselves for the future—not only as it could be, but also as it should be. Pap:e Eight Winter Term Executive President—B. Cole. Vice-President—J. Steele. Secretary—Miss G. Fisher. Treasurer—W. Stewart. Lit. Chairman—Miss Thom. Social Chairman—Miss E. Peters. Athletic Chairman—D. Corrie. Constitutional Changes This year brings us two changes in our Constitution. The first deals with the Order of Business. Article IX. now reads: 1. Call to order. 2. Reading of Minutes. 3. Report of Executive Committee. 4. Correspondence. 5. Reports of Standing Committees. 6. Reports of Spocial Committees. 7. Announcements. 8. Other Business. 9. Nomination and Election of Officers 10. Adjournment. The second. Article V., Section 5, deal¬ ing with the departments eligible for represen¬ tation on the Executive. This now reads the same, with the addition of the Geology Class. Page Nine The Emery Weal The students’ paper, The Emery Weal, started the past year under extremely diffcult circumstances. Business conditions were not such as to make the paper a financial success, and since the paper has always been a self- sustaining part of the activities of the Students’ Association, this was indeed a blow to the school paper. The students themselves have not this year shown the interest in the school activities that has been shown in for¬ mer years, end without the support of the Student Body nothing can be a success. In February, The Emery Weal dropped out of the picture to give place to the Year Book, since their finan¬ cial interests were clashing. It might be a good thing to have a compulsory subscription to The Emery Weal taken up, in the same manner as the students’ dues, and turned over to The Emery Weal. This would give the paper a fair working- margin. The Emery Weal wishes to thank Mr. Young, our Staff representative, for the support and co-operation he has given us, and to thank those students who have so loyally supported the paper. To the graduating students we wish every success in their future endeavours, and to those who return again, may they leave with as fond a memory of the Institute and its Staff as we are leaving. Page Eleven .TECH-ART RECORD Technical Schools in Canada By Dr. W. C. Carpenter T echnical Education is a relatively new venture in educat on in Canada. Practical education has been a part of the system of education in Europe for many years. Some Russian handiwork from their schools was shown at the Centennial Exposition in Philadelphia in 1876, which gave a large impetus towards the organization of Jthis work in the United States. In Canada, the first senous attempt at Technical Education in day classes was made in Toronto in 1900. Considerable interest in this type of educat onal endeavour had been developed over Canada through the gifts of Sir William MacDonald for the encouragement of Man¬ ual Training. Dr. James W. Robertson, administering the MacDonald fund, introduced several instructors from England. These were distributed throughout Canada, and beginnings in practical programs were instituted. In Toronto remarkable progress has been made. Eor fifteen years work was carried on m a modified building until 1915, when work was jbegun in the magnificent Central Technical Schoo ' , since when three very large and magnificent schools have been erected and filled to capacity. In Hamilton, Technical work was begun in 1909, since when the fine Technical Institute was erected and very Quickly filled to capacity; and a second school, in West Hamilton, had to be provided to meet the demands. London and Windsor- Walkerville have excellent schools, w.th heavy enrolments, and at the present time there is not a city of over 10,000 population that has not a Technical School as a part of its local system. Technical education is firmly placed on a permanent basis in Ontaro. In Quebec the Ecole Polytechnique was organized in Montreal in 1873. This has grown into a large and Important branch of L.aval University and carr es the engineering services of this large University. This ,school is not a Technical High School, inasmuch as its main function is more of a University grade. The Montreal Technical School was organized in 1907, offering practical courses of a sub-un ' versity grade. Since then large Industrial schools have been built at Quebec City, Hull, Three Rivers, Grande Mere, Shawinigan, Beauceville, Chicoutimi, Port Alfred and other places. These schools have been largely financed by the government of the Province of Quebec, the communities in which they are situated contributing towards their maintenance. In the Maritime Provinces, the first beginnings were made in the organization of the Nova Scotia Technical Cbllege in 1907. The main urge behind the plan in Nova Scotia was to provide a central school for the training of engineers which could not easily be Page Twelve done by the several colleges in the province pf University standing. All engineering work in Nova Scotia is done at this school, which at jhe same time caters to the needs of the demand for instruction of a type lower than that of University status. Nova Scotia has developed an elaborate smd strong department of Home Study Courses. In 1932 there were 23 municipalities in Nova Scotia carrying evening programs in Industrial Education. New Brunswick carries day programs in eight centres, the largest plant being found in Saint John, where a very fine new Voca¬ tional School has been recently ojrened which has proved very popular. Manitoba was well to the fore in the making of provision for Technical instruction when the city of Winnipeg, about 1912 and 1913, erected the two very fine plants, accommodating a composite school and known respectively as the Kelvin and Saint John Tech¬ nical Schools. These schools have had a vicarious experience during the years, so far as industrial education is poncemed, the work not progressing as in )the larger cities east and west. In Brandon City an interesting Motor School is conducted by the Government of Manitoba. This school has shown an interesting growth and has promise of a bright future along popular lines. Little has been done in Saskatchewan until recently Technical High Schools have been erected in the larger centres. The work in Saskatchewan has a promising outlook. Edmonton organized a Technical High School in 1914, using temporary quarters as a beginning. The school has had a rather uphill struggle and even yet is housed in a plant that is a made-over market building. It has recently shown new life and its work is very encouraging. In Calgary the Technical Institute was opened in 1916 and the magnificent new building entered in 1922. The instructional service in the day classes has increased from 40,685 student hours in 1920-21 to about 320,000 student hours in 1932- 33. In 1929 a very fine new Technical High School was erected in Calgary by the City School Board. This school has been popu¬ lar from the beginning, is filled quite to capacity and is doing a very fine piece of work. In British Columbia the progress made in Technical education is one of the bright records in Canada. There are eleven Techni¬ cal Schools in the province vvhich, with the Commercial Schools, report a day enrolment of 9,713 students in 1931-32. In Vancouver is to be found one of the finest Technical Schools in the Dominion, where a superior program is being offered and in which lies the high hopes of thousands of Vancouver youth. There were 2,582 students enrolled in day classes in the year 1931-32. Technical education is just begun in Canada. The assistance of the Federal Government from 1919 to 1929, when ten millions of dollars were disbursed to the provinces, has been greatly stimulating. There is a new Act awaiting official sanction which would) be of the greatest value during these troublesome times. In our province development will await recovery in the economic status of the people, but I believe it is safe to state that in the next period of progress Technical Schools will play a very important part. Pajr« Thirteen TECH-ART RECORD Tech-Art Record, 1932-33 A school without a Year Book is a school without a voice. Last year, as we all know, the special edition of “The Emery Weal” took the place of our Year Book. We take this opportunity of congratulating “The Emery Weal” Staff on their good work. We realize now that it was no easy task they had. This year our Year Book takes slightly smaller dimensions; however, we have attempted tq maintain the departments as in previous editions. Some departments have been enlarged, while others have been condensed. We also have included one or two new ideas which, we hope, will meet with approval. We can easily understand the difficulties that were encountered by the circulation and advertising staffs. But then, even in times like these, we can publish a Year Book. Why, then, should the Provincial Institute of Technology and Art be without a Year Book each and every year in the future? YEAR BOOK STAFF Editor-in-Chief Sport J. McDOUGALL Business Manager Asst.

Athletics this year were under the capable hands of R. Swanson, P. Lester, the first term; D. Corrie the second, and B. Skorheim the third. All of them are to be congratulated on the way things were handled. The different branches of sport participated in were, hockey. basketball, badminton, shooting, tennis, wrestling, boxing, soft- ball, baseball, football, volleyball, track, and horse-shoes. With this wide range of sports there was hardly a student who wasn’t active in a sport of some kind. Many of the stu¬ dents took part in nearly all of them. Tech sport fans this year are certainly proud of their ath¬ letic teams, and hope that next year will be another banner one. Page Twenty-six Page Twenty-seven TECH-ART RECORD Hockey The hockey team this year contained many of last year’s players, as well as some excellent first year material. Although handicapped by not having a coach, the team went right out and after tying Garbutt’s in the league, won the Inter-Collegiate championship of Alberta. Tire team defeated Normal 3-0 and 4-1 ; Mount Royal College, 11-1 and 2-0; and won one and lost one to Garbutt’s, the scores being 5-2 and 2-3. Two exhibition games were played. Tech winning by 8-0 and 11-1. The play-offs were supported wholeheartedly by the stu¬ dents and they certainly saw fast, clean hockey. 1 he first game resulted in a tie, 1-1. This game was an excellent example of a fast, close-checking game. In the second game, 1 ech’s su¬ periority was easily seen, the score being 6-1. In all games that the Tech played this year, the rough play that frequently marred the other league games was noticeably, absent, and we hope that this will always be so in years to come when the Tech team plays. Hockey Players Jacobs —TTie main reason why Tech won the Picardy trophy. Coach of the team. Lapng —A smart goalie; played a couple of games. Cole —A neat defense player; noted for his individual rushes. Corrie — Captain and assistant coach. A fast, tricky player. Played forward and defense. Craig —A heady player, who knows how to body-check. SI(orheim —When he checks them they stay checked. A fast skater. Sasso —The boy who can sure p’ck the holes in the net. Is also a tricky stick-handler. Ferguson —Poke-check artist of the team. He can sure pick the openings. Malcolm —A fast skater; packs the hardest shot on the team. Siervart —A hard worker. A hard man to watch. Lesnak —A tricky stick-handler. Packs a deceptive shot. Whitl ))—A fast skater who can always be depended upon to watch his man. Commons —A hard worker. A finished player around the net. Page Twenty-eight Wrestling and Boxing For the first time in several years, inter-class hockey was completed. Many fast and interesting games were played for the silver trophy donated by the Students’ Association. The league consisted of eight teams, the final standing be¬ ing: Drafters, Motor III., Aero, Motor I., Composites, E 1-B, E 2 and E 1 -A. In the play-offs the Drafters, after defeating the Aeros, went on to defeat Motor III. by total score of 2-1, losing one game 1 -0 and winning the other 2-0. The Drafters’ team was as follows: Jeffreys, Cole, Turner, Goodearl, Malcolm, Lesnak, Ferguson, Rees, Dick, Warrack. Due to the capable coaching of Mr. Rider, many excellent boxers and wrestlers were developed. Two afterjiQons are de¬ voted to these sports and they certainly deserve more time. Per¬ haps next year this will be arranged. We hope that some time we may see the Tech banner fly¬ ing from the top of one of the Alberta championships. With such excellent material and capable instruction, there is no reason why this shouldn’t be. Baseball and Softball Tennis and Golf Supplies.

Badminton Although there was a court in the gvm., it wasn’t until this, year that badminton went full swing. Two courts were built in the vacated Tractor shops where nearly every noon and eve¬ ning many close and exciting games were played. A number of tournaments were held, and manv excellent players developed. In the singles tournament F. Russell de¬ feated D. Corrie. Page Thirty Basketball Inter-Class Basketball The Intermediate team this year was one of the best Tech has ever had. Although losing out in the Intermediate play-offs, they took second to the Sen ' or Moose Domers in the city league. On a tour in Southern B.C. thev won one game and lost one. Perhaos the greatest accomolishment was the comolefe smotherns of the Normal team. The scores were 38-23; 43-21 and 45-23. The team was ably coached by Mr. Van Ostrum, and if more time had been available for practice. Tech’s banner would be flying at the Intermediate championship post. The team was: Swanson, Taitinger, Corrie, Parker, Diamond, Ferguson, Mc- Befh, Perry, Burriss and Hansen. The Juniors this year were of excellent material, but seemed to have some difficulty in securing a coach. This was soon remedied and from then on many games were won. They lost out to Crescent Heights in the Junior play-offs after three close and exciting games. The team was: Cosburn, Moore, Rees, Taylor, Sherwood, Dingle, Morgan, Henning, Phillips and Dumba. R. Jones was manager. Tech is certainly proud of these basketball teams-— the teams that never admitted defeat until the last bell. More success to them next year. Another successful league was drawn to a close when the Composites copped the championship of the Tnter-class league. The play-offs between the Composites and Electrics were very close, and it wasn’t until the final bell went that you could say who was the winner. TJie winning team was: Ferguson, Rees, Taylor, Cosburn and Moore. ¥ ¥ � Field Day The Annual Field Day of the Tech Students’ Assoc’ation, held May 20, was an event Jong to be remembered by both students and staff. F. Large and Miss Emma (Peanuts) Peters were the individual champions of the day, Fred Large having 28 jxjints to his credit, and Miss Peters, 23. The Electric 1-A won the class championship with 54 points; the Art class came second with 48 points, and Electric 2 class third with I 3 points. The softball was won Iby the Teachers’ Manual Training and Station Agents. Inter-class basketball was won by the 1 st year Electric class. Page Thirty-two Page Thirty-three TECH-ART RECORD Shooting This sport had a very successful year under the capable leadership of Mr. Wagner. Many first year students who took part were excellent marksmen, and they should be congratulated on some of the scores that were made. Prizes of silver spoons, with the Tech crest and the win¬ ner’s name, were given away. J. Rees, A. Smith, L. Fraser, M. Cipperly and C. L. Durie were the lucky winners. -:o:- Tech Orchestra The Tech Orchestra was formed Howards the end of the Winter Term, with the idea of playing for the remainder of the Association dances. Their first public appearance was made when they supplied the music for the Dramatic Club’s play, “S afety First.’’ At the time of writing they- were practicing daily, to the great amusement of some of the students. The Orchestra consisted of six pieces, as follows: Saxo¬ phones, W. E. Landkamer, R. Burriss; Trumpet, W. D. Miller; Banjo, H. McLaughlin; Piano, D. C. Jones; Drums, M. Hayes. News Despatch ANDHOW, Manchuria—International Govt Cables (unattached) : It has been rumored that the fighting here has became fiercer and nearer during the pest weak. 1 he Right Horrible Mr. H. MucAlpin, governor of the province of H:- Hung, has expended his personal fortune ($1.98) in equipping the army of preoccupation. Prom ' neat officer.s under him are Capt. Davidson, in command of the heavy calibre elastic bands; Field Marshall Generalissimo L. Slater, in command of the Queen’s Own Signals, who has so far extinguished himself ex¬ ceptionally well. For the last three days the city has been chucking the wolf off the doorstep. There is famine in the land and the populace has been reduced to fried chicken and caviar. However, Mr. Litchinsky, comptroller of food control, promises that as soon as communication can be established with the Cafeteria, this want will be alleviated. Knowing the Generalissimo, we are sure that in the cause of food, communications could be established to Mars. -:o:- Turner; Have you read “Flannels ? Miss-: Don’t get fresh. Page Thirty-four TECH-ART RECORD Social Activities The Model Club Despite, the fact that “prosperity” had not yet turned the corner, the first dance of the Fall term was a huge success. TTie dance, under the leadership of Mr. R. Morton and committee, was held Friday, October 21, with “Jolly Millers” orchestra in attendance. ¥ ¥ ¥ An enjoyable time was also had at the Skating Party held December 2 on the school rink. ¥ Dances of Decentber 9, 1932, and January 13, 1933, with Billy Adams’ and Earl Ruttan’s orchestras, were also successful. A good time was had by all who attended the dance of February 3. This was the first dance held after mid-term elec¬ tions, and Miss Peters and her committee are to be congratulated on the success of this dance. Music was supplied by the “Jolly Millers” orchestra. (■ Of special note is the dance which was held in conjunction with the Graduation Banquet, Friday, February 24. The hall was appropriately decorated by the insertion of Oriental touches. Music was supplied by the “Calgarians.” The Model Club is the youngest activity of the Students’ Association, but under the able direction of Mr. A. A. Peebles it is very active in its infancy. At the beginning of the Fall term the following officers were elected. President, F. B. Church; vice-president, G. B. Flimmelman; secretary-treasurer, J. L. Henning. During the remainder of the term members worked hard on their models and various creations began to take shape. At the beginning of the Winter term, D. C. Jones was elected president; H. Leonard, vice-president and J. L. Henning, secretary-treasurer. At this meeting reports from Model Machine Builders, Model Boat Builders and Model Aircraft Builders showed that the mem ' bers were actively engaged and interested in model making. Some of the work of the Club was displayed to good ad¬ vantage at the Banquet, notably at the table of the Aeronautics, where the model Beacon, the work of Frank Hanlan, helped to light up the occasion. Model aeroplanes by F. B. Church, H. Leonard and D. C. Jones were also seen to good advantage. Many of the Club members are first year students, so it is hoped that pext year they will carry on smd develop the Club further. It is also hoped that more students from other classes than the Aeronautics will join up next year and make the third year of the Club bigger and better than the second. JAS. L. HENNING, Secretary- T reasurer. Page Thirty-six Page Thirty-seven TECH-ART RECORD The Dramatic Club ■ The Dramatic Club, which itself grew out of a small idea started by the boys of the Argonaut Club and later affiliated with the I. O. T. A. Girls’ Club, rose to its present stage in less than three years. This year the Club was organized early in the season, with George Dyson being elected president; Jack Steele, vice-presi¬ dent; Jack Irvine, sec.-treas., and Mr. H. J. Rees, director of plays. A play-reading committee, consisting of Miss Helen McDerby, chairrnan. Miss Lavone Fisher, Miss Kay Wilmott, Miss Vera Barnstead and Ralph O’Neil, was also elected. Through the efforts of this committee a short skit entitled, “A Day in Court,” was presented at one of the regular weekly meetings of the Students’ Association. At this time of writing another short skit entitled “hdeirs At Law,” is being prepared for presentation some Wednesday afternoon. The Club also held a number of social evenings, two at the ' Scout Hall on Rideau Road, and another given by Mr. and Mrs. H. J. Rees at their home. Introducing another successful achievement to the splendid record of the Students’ Association, the school’s Dramatic Club stepped out into the limelight when they presented a three-act comedy-farce entitled “Safety First,” before the public eye on Friday evening, March 3rd, in the school Assembly Hall. The pl was well received and produced gales of laughter from an appreciative audience throughout the entire performance. The hard work and fine co-operation of the cast, together with excellent direction, was well rewarded by its enthusiastic re¬ ception. This new and sparkling farce concerns an inoffensive and innocent husband and his chum who are plunged into the abyss of the law together with a Turkish maiden. The three are ar¬ rested and thrown into jail for thirty days. In order to keep the disgrace from their lady friends the boys tell them that they are leaving for a convention of Shriners by boat. The scheme works and the ladies bid them a tearful farewell. In the second act the ladies receive word that the boys could not be found on board and were probably washed overboard and drowned. Knowing nothing of this the boys return after their term expires, full pf joy and explanations of their wonderful trip to Florida. It takes some tall explaining to show why they were not drowned, especially when the girl’s mother learns that the Turkish maiden was also missing. Complications have now arisen, but in the third act the tangle is all straightened out after a series of laughable events culminating in an elopement down a ladder. The antics of the Irish maid, taken by Miss Helen Mc¬ Derby, and her fiancee, a defective detective, enacted by Jack {Continued on page forty) I’age Thirty-eight Page Thirty-nine The Dramatic Club Geological Club Notes (Continued from page thirty-eight) Irvine, did much in sustaining the humorous tempo of the play. Miss Helen Grant, as the young wife, gave a most convincing performance for such a difficult role. Jack Butler, as the husband, was well fitted to his part and was fully at ease before the footlights. George Dyson, in the supporting role of chum and affianced young man, gave a smooth performance, as did Miss Veryl Jo¬ hansen as the sister and fiancee. Miss Margaret Thom, as the mother. Miss Lorna Yoxall, as the Turkish maiden, William- Miller, as the Turk, and Jack Steel, as the Turkish maiden’s lover, are all to be commended on the fine acting which, they gave to their roles. Mr. H. J. Rees, who so successfully directed the play, is to be congratulated on his good work and the patience which he took to help the players out, and he was ably rewarded for his efforts by the wonderful presentation that these amateur thespians made on this, their first big play. At time of going to press it is learned that the Club is con¬ templating presenting this play at some nearby country points. -:o:-- Slater: I never seem to get the answers to those questions. Mr. Howells: Well, if I give you the answer, do you think you could find the question? The past term has been noted for the largest Geological class enrolment in day and night courses the Institute has ever known. This, together with the interest shown by many others in Mining and Geological work, led to the suggestion that a Geological Club be formed for the purjxise of bringing together those interested in any phase of Geological or Mining work. It was decided to hold meetings on the first and fourth Tuesdays of each month, talks to be given by members or speakers from outside on subjects of interest. Later, when jhe Club is more definitely established, a club room, museum and library are to be provided if possible. The officers for the first term are: President, H. Mc- Alpine; vice-president, L. Slater; secretary and treasurer. Miss I. Sinclair; councillors: S. Snell, S. Neill, G. Driver, A. Mc¬ Dermott; curator, G. Newton; librarian, J. Anderson. -:o:- Then there was the Scotch carpenter, who, feeling that his days on this earth were about to end, decided to make his will. “Now, I’ll leave six thousand to Mr. A. Baxter, and 12 thousand to Mr. J. Fowler.” “But, I say, you haven’t that much money,” said the lawyer. “Hoot, mon, are ye daft?” returned the .Scot. “I’m not talking about money; I’m talking about nails.” Page Forty Tech Annual Graduation Banquet Students of the [Institute will long remember the night of February 22nd, 1933, as the night of the Fifth Annual Gradua¬ tion Banquet of the Provincial Institute of Technology and Art. The banquet was held in the Elizabethan Rooms of the Hudson’s Bay Company, which were gaily decorated with the school colors which mean so much to us all. Mr. James Fowler, as toastmaster, proposed the toast to “The King.” “The Institute” was proposed by Alderman Riley, deputizing for Hon. Perrin Baker, and was suitably responded to by Dr. Carpenter. Mr. F. N. Rhodes proposed the toast to “The Students” which was well responded to by Mr. Ralph A. Swanson. “The Staff” was proposed by Mr. J. H. Jacobs and was responded to by Mr. P. G. Young. The final toast, “The Alumni and Guests,” was proposed by Miss Gladys Fisher, and was responded to Mr. Dr. E. W. Coffin on behalf of the guests, and by Mr. Tom Moore on behalf of the Alumni. Between speeches an enjoyable programme was rendered. TTiose taking part were Miss Jean Gilbert and Miss Mary Tierney, who gave a musical duet, as did George Harris, Sr., and George Ftarris, Jr. W. J. Banks rendered humorous vocal selections. Class skits were presented by the Dressmaker,s Elec¬ tricians, Drafters and Motors. Commmunity singing was led by Mr. Wyndie Jones. Two presentations were made by Dr. Carjjenter during the evening. The first, a silver cup, donated by the Students’ As¬ sociation of 1931-32, was presented to the ComifKJsite team, winners of the Inter-Class Basketball League. The cup was accepted by Ray Ferguson on behalf of his team. The second presentation was made to Curtis Durie, who received a silver spoon in recognition of his shooting ability. An enjoyable evening was brought to an end with the sing¬ ing of “Auld Lang Syne.” HELEN McDERBY. Page Forty-one Geological Class Report Term Ending 1932-33 Again another year of success for the eminent Geological Research Bureau has been recorded. Once more Capt. David¬ son, our qualitative gold expert, has been stumped; he is still trying to figure how the cave-men got around the problems of pink toothbrush and B. O. Les Slater, expert in Geological mapping, nearly sunk his entire fortune into the results of one of his assays, which ran $1,000.00 to the ton, only to find someone had helped it along a little by salting. Laurie Marple, expert placer miner, has threatened to take the degrees away from the rest of the class for inefficiency in the art of loafing. Ray Evans has made a name for himself in the fossil branch and certainly hopes that the souls of the ancient animals are not in the here¬ after. Hugh McAlp ne is an authority on any subject, whethe r you know it or not; he is also a great oil and gas man, who is trying to find out how to take oil out of his hair and gas oft hif stomach. Boysie Evans, our chemical research expert, still won¬ ders why men have to shave, and he is deeply engaged in research investigations on this problem. George Driver in “The Local Boy Makes Good,” became famous for his book on the Habits and Cultivation of Fossil Fleas; he still thinks Friday afternoon is a Bank Ftoliday. Jimmy Macbeth is another man who hopes to become famous in the placer mining game, and certainly hopes gold is where you find it; his great ambition is to d ' .scern the variety of rouge J)y his first kiss—good luck, Jimmy. Jimmy Anderson, a man of great renown, is still wondering what makes the earth turn circles; maybe it‘s G-I-N, the breath of Tech, —who knows?; address all correspondence to the editor of Hush. Bar a few minor incidents such as gassmg the class, blowing up half the equipment, and the wrecking of school morals gen¬ erally, the scientists in Geology 2 had a very successful year. LES SLATER.

Seiwice Canadian Bakeries Limited M 7946 will do if you have none of your own). Now, fill the sink full of water. Dip brush and soap in. Drop soap on floor and search for it under bathtub. On recovery, bump head on something and curse violently in Latin, French, Greek or broken English (as vocabulary per¬ mits). Now, listen feverishly for Father’s footsteps while working up lather. Swab lather on face, being careful to get it m your eyes, nose, and and mouth. Now grab a towel and wipe soap out of undesired spots. Make a pass for the razor. After gaining this implement, drag it over the face a dozen or so times performing various contortions. Repeat this again and again until all traces of fuzz disappear. Stare at self in glass and wonder what Father would do if he caught you. After courtplastering all cuts on the be¬ sieged area, wipe all the lather from woodwork, and wall. Now gaze on the lather, and with the greatest precaution you may discover a few microscopic par¬ ticles of fuzz. Don’t bother to remove signs of the conflict—let Father do it.

Page One Hundred and Sixteen My Impression of Hockey Hockey, the outstanding national game of Canada, is a combination of football, golf, soccei ' , prize-fight¬ ing, tug-of-war, and various battles we read of during the Great War. It is a crime wave on a slippery surface, com¬ monly known as ice. If one man dashes into another o n a slipperv street, knocks him down and bashes him between the eyes with a crooked stick, it is unpremeditated assault. If one man dashes into another, knocks him down and bashes him between the eyes with a crooked stick in a rink, it’s first-class hockey. Sport enthusiasts who like their thrills served fresh every second and who consider any sport dull when any of the contestants are in an upright position, have found what they ordered. Here, at least, is a game played where every contestant is in the act of falling through space. It is a game played between two teams of six men each, none of whom cares a rap for his physical fu¬ ture. It is played with a small rubber heel, the aim of each team being to deliver it into a cage guarded by a. youth whose parents evidently never gave him any good advice. When it is time for the game to begin, the referee skates to the centre of the ice and blows a whistle. This is a signal to all physicians, nurses and internes to get ready for business. He then drops the rubber heel and flees for his life. The rubber heel then sud¬ denly becomes very popular and is immediately battled for by the opposing teams on the theory of an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, and a fractui’e for a try at the goal cage. During the carnage the busiest in¬ dividual in the arena is the goaltender, who is dressed like a man in a Michelin tire advertisement, and who has to stop more missiles than the City of Rheims stopped German shells. After the end of the final period the surgeons ex¬ amine the goaltenders. The game is awarded to the side whose goaltender has the best chance for recovery. Ontario Laundry Ltd. DRY CLEANERS Calgaiy j LARGEST PLANT IN THE WEST I Page One Hundred and Seventeen - Good Deeds - George put his foot into it again the other day. What he put his foot into was a hole. The result was that he laid himself on the grass and twisted one of his ankles. Now this in itself was annoying, especially as he was playing golf with me at the time and was winning. The real trouble was that on the other side of the fence was a troop, or a covey, or a herd, or something, of boy scouts, covered, like all good boy scouts, with badges for tracking, cooking, scouting, eating, howling and the various things that boj scouts do. It happens that I know this particular troop of scouts because a surgeon friend of mine has been giving them lessons in First Aid and ever since he showed them how to uproot a lamp-post and use it as a splint, they have been yearning to try it on a real subject. As you know, if a boy scout fails to do one good deed during the day he doesn’t go to bed all night, and as soon as these scouts saw George sitting up swearing and rubbing his ankle they looked on him as the answer to a prayer. In a couple of seconds they had him surrounded and were telling him to keep cool while they pinched him in various places to see what was wrong. George says that the fattest one was sitting on his head to keep him down, but I don’t believe it. Page One Hundred and Eighteen As the book instructed them they ripped off his plus-fours and tied as many of his golf ' clubs roujid his legs as there was room for. Only about six of, them could do this at once, so three more. of them put a regulation triangular bandage round his ribs. Two others, jealous of their comrades, industriously tried to apply the treatment for a dislocated shoulder. I told them that George was all right, and they must let him get up and come home, but they fold me to. go away and leave the matter in the hands of somebody who had been trained to it. There were still several of them temporarily un¬ employed apparently waiting their turn to practice artificial respiration on the patient as soon as there was room, and I heard a couple arguing as. to the best emetic for use in case of poisoning. They evidently didn’t mean to waste George, and seeing that they in¬ tended to go right through the book I went off and got help. , :. I think they were preparing to stop the bleeding from an artery by putting a tourniquet round George’ ' s neck when we got back and rescued him. As I told him, the noble little fellows meant well, but he says that the next time he indulges in a slight accident he will find somewhere quiet to do it.

Read on: , How to Tune a Piano After taking the front out of the instrument you will discover that it is full of wires with some little hammers which hit these wires and make the awful noises that come out of the instrument. When these wires get slack, the noise sounds even worse than usual, and if you get a man in to do the job he will tighten up the wires and make the noise louder. First take out all the wires with a pair of pliers. They can be used for hanging pictures, especially the woolly ones at the bass end. Then screw the front on the piano again. You will be surprised at the improvement in the thing. People will be able to play on it day and night without making a sound and it will be just as useful as before because it will hold just as many photographs on the top.

He was told that the baboon had died, but had been skinned. “If you will get into its skin, you can do the stunts, etc., and pretend you are the baboon; it will amuse the people,’’ said the circus manager. The banker did this, and became quite professional in his tricks. One day, how¬ ever, the man who fed the animals, left the door of the lion’s cage, which was next to that of the baboon’s, unlocked. While the baboon was swinging in his cage, he pushed open the door into the lion’s cage and fell beside this ferocious beast. Tlie crowds began to shout and so did the baboon. “Help, help!” he shouted. “Keep quiet,” said the lion. “Do you think you’re the only banker put of a job?” H- !■ Fred Large; I shall never marry until I find a woman who is my direct opposite.
