R THE SCHOOL YEAR 1968-1969 I Science Fair The Form Ill Science Fair was held in early January of this year. The exhibits, which totalled some 'l8 in number, were judged by Mr. A. Buckmaster, President of the Quebec Chemistry Teachers Association. Mr. Buckmaster found the quality of the entries so high that he experienced considerable difficulty in making a decision. However, after some time, the following prizes were awarded: 'lst Prize to John Odell and Fraser Elliott. 2nd Prize to Charles Rohlicek and John Hastings. 3rd Prize to Malcolm Kilgour and Michael Weil. The winning project was a study in streamlining of automobiles and traced the development of the science from the l92O's to the present. The second prize was a demonstration of the principles of the electric motor in which the magnetic fields of the various coils was cleverly and simply shown. The third prize was a dramatic and effective demonstration of the electric safety fuse. The Fair was iudged a great success and it will be repeated in the coming School Session.
