A TRIP T0 THE C. N. E. Last Summer Sydney Academy was again honoured when Douglas Brown was chosen as one of two students from Nova Scotia t'o go to the Can- adian National Exhibition. Doug and Malcolm Harlowe of Q. E. H. S. were chosen from a numiber of nominees, by the Department of Education, as all- round Canadian High Scfhool students. Doug was the President of the Students' Assembly, a member of the Championship Basketball squad, a member of the Senior Track and Field team, one of the principals of H. M. S. Pinafore and generally made himself useful in Academy activities. The twenty boys and girls, two from each Prfovince, were guests of the Ogilvie Flour Mills during their stay in Toronto. They spent several exciting and interesting -days at the Exhibition, were presented to the Governor- Gen- eral, toured Toronto and the surrounding districts, visited Niagara Falls and altogether had a bang-up time. Besides the thrill 'of the Exhibition itself, Doug said that the best part of it all was meeting and exchanging ideas with students from all parts of Canada. -+54-0-lib ASSEMBLY ACTIVITIES 1949-50 Gwen Pledge, Secretary i For some years activities at Sydney Academy have been sponsored and guided, to aacertain extent, by the Student 's Assembly. The Assemzbly, repre- sentative of the student body, wlo-rks always. for the benefit and progress of the school and students and has become an important institution at the Acad- cmy. The 1949-1950 edition of the Student 's Assembly convened for the first time this term on September 27th. in Room 1. At this meeting the following officers were elected. President-Donald Ward. Vice-President-Stanley Stephenson. Secretary-Gwen Pledge. The advisory committee consists of Miss Francis, Mr. Chafe and Mr. Chiasson. Mr. Cihafe was appointed Treasurer as the job was considered too large for any particular student. On Oct-o'ber 21st., the Assembly sponsored the first At Home of the year which was held in the Allied Seamen's Club. Successive At Homes were held throughout the term, all of which were successful due largely to the efforts of the Assembly 's Social Committee. The sale of apples and fudge was conducted by the Assembly through- out the term and the sales proved very popular with the students. A portion of the proceeds realized from the fudge sales was forwarded by the Assembly to Radio Station CJFX in support of the March -of Dimes Campaign. 40
