President ' s Message Well, by the time everybody reads this, the school year will be over, and the 1969-70 S.R.S. will be dissolved. Speak¬ ing for myself, it’s been a wonderful year; sometimes good, sometimes bad and sometimes pretty wild (as anyone who has been in one of the patented, laugh-in type fiascoes which cropped up all too frequently, can verify). In spite of this, or maybe because of it, this has been one of the most productive years a Sheldon S.R.C. has had. As suggested last year, Freshie week was postponed a week so that it could be better organized. There was a meet¬ ing between the Executive and the Freshies in an attempt to make them feel more at home. This has been the first year of operation for the Educational Directorate, and, under the able direction of Stuart Garvin, it has made many suggestions which were implemented. I’m sure I reflect the attitude of the entire student body when I say thank you to Stu. for doing a really tough job so well. In the early part of December, the U.N.E.S.C.O. organiza¬ tion sponsored a starve-in to raise money for building schools in Ceylon. Entrants were to go without food for 15 hours. The results were phenomenal — $2,200.00 for the project. This is entirely in keeping with the Sheldon tradition of all-out endorsement of worthy projects. As the only U.N.E.S.C.O. group in Regina, ours has distinguished itself on an international scale. Further showing the concern of Sheldon students for world problems was the Conference on Population Explosion. This two day conference used various interesting speakers to put the implications of the problems across. On the lighter side there was also a light show and coffee house. All who attended enjoyed themselves. In keeping with the policy of Sheldon-Williams to allow students more responsibility, the dances this year were student supervised. As well, at the Miss Sheldon Dance, a smoking lounge was located in room 2. Everything went off very well and I am sure that the idea of a smoking lounge at dances will continue. Another new feature at Sheldon this year was the instal¬ lation of two soft drink machines. These may be used by any student at noon or after school and in their spares by the seniors. Up to this time there has been no problem with these machines and I know there will not be in the future. Our operetta this year was “Annie Get Your Gun”, and the best I’ve seen. Congratulations to the cast and crew ancf especially to Darcy White and Clayton Johnstone for a fantastic production. Congratulations also go to Dr. Peart and Mr. Burgess without whom the show would have been impossible. In closing I would like to express my appreciation to everyone who helped me and the S.R.C. throughout the year, but I can’t. The list would be too long. So I will say a special thanks to Mr. Armstrong, Mr. Schrader, Mr. Philpot, Mr. Pollard and the Executive without trying to say how much their help and experience meant to me and, for the rest; I couldn’t have made it without you. Good Luck to next year’s S.R.C and Bon Chance to those writing departmentals! Allen Snell
