As Juniors, we took a special interest in the Science Fair of '57, as the Chemistry exhibit was 9504, the work of our class. Months before the Fair, we pondered and considered the type of proiect we thought we could successfully cope with and demonstrate intelligently. This is what we contributed to the Science Exhibit.

L.l EQ A IU Visitors to the Science Fair were attracted to the amateur radio section and enioyed operating these student-constructed devices. To the Ham Radio Club much credit is due for the great success of this interesting feature of the exhibit. The February i956 issue of the BLUE and GOLD carried the story of the birth of this scientific club which has enlarged its membership and scope since its founding. To quote from our school paper: Dotfdot-dash! Dit-dahh, dit-dit! These are the sounds clamoring through the doors of Room 35 on Wednesday afternoon. To puzzled Bernardians, that is the Morse Code in full operation by members of the Ham Radio Club. This new club is the latest accomplishment of the C.Y.C. Camille Belliveau, Henry Gingras, Donald Haaker, Robert Zozloski, Gerald Pluker, Dennis Piermarini, and Andrew White are the pioneer members. The group is working to receive a Novice Class license. If they are successful this will enable them to advance to a higher class next year. Andrew White and Dennis Piermarini will receive theirs from the Civil Air Patrol. The others will participate in a general amateur class and will be M' i accepted this way. The boys intend to have communication with many places before long.
