J1me,1946 THE TECHALOGUE 81 MARGUERITE ADAIR PASSING OF MARGUERITE ADAIR CAUSED WIDESPREAD SORROW Students and staff alike were shocked by the news of the death of Marguerite Adair of 4C. Born at Grandora, Marguerite attended the Boyleston public school. The funeral service on May 4, was very largely attended by friends and neighbors and by members of Tech. To her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Walter S. Adair, the Techalogue extends the heartfelt sympathy of the Whole school.

80 THE TECHALOGUE June,1946 Mr. Ernest Lindner, who has been in charge of art work here since its inception, is a Canadian artist of first rank. His works are widely recognised and praised by experts and by those in charge of art exhibitions throughout Canada. The art department is in the room at the rear of the bookkeeping room and Mr. Lindner's store room is found in the space under the outside steps leading to the front door of the school. However, the work done in these quarters is not to be measured by the physical surroundings so often designated by their occupants as the morgue. Our contributor mentions some of the members of the art class such as Loren Teed, much given to splashing radiant colors across his paperg Haldora Gunnlaugson, able with a little color to create a dainty effectg Robert Currie, following his bent to create miniatures, Eddie Sebestyen, rapidly progressing in outdoor sketchingg Warren Roy, with patience and skill creating lino-cuts, and a number of others whom he describes as trying to recreate the universe with poster paints. Students from other Collegiate Institutes in the city come to the art department on Wednesday afternoons. Some of these young peo- ple with special talents and interests will form some of Mr. Lindner's advanced classes next year or later. l.-Af? THE BOOSTER CLUB Near the beginning of the present term, Mr. Cox, Mr. Chan and Mr. Sexsmith gathered with a handful of students in an attempt to form a council whose purpose would be to create more school spirit and interest in school activities. The group readily took up the work under the name of the Booster Club. Its early accomplishments were abundant-supplying the students with beanies and booster crests,'l editing a short periodical on news about the school, and sponsoring the first gala dance of the year. However, the stem of thingsl' fell through, and after the Christmas recess it can be said the Booster Club almost fell into oblivion. Possibly next year it will be revived and increased to become a council suitable for the worthy purpose it has to fill. Here's hoping. .-,171 BOOSTER CLUB HOP Tech's first dance of the year was, as Tech dances should be, and as they usually are, swell With music supplied by Gordie King and his Band, and stomping, Cdancing that isj by some three hundred students, an evening of real fun was had. Lunch was served by the club and strains of Home Sweet Home crept in about midnight, ending this 1945-46 opening school party. Congrats go to the Booster Club for the grand time.
