Honourary President Dr. V. L. Leathers President Keith Black J Vice-President Judy Lee Secretary-Treasurer Sheila Jasper The day to plan activities, the night to carry them out, The wee small hours for study—a fourth year sched¬ ule, no doubt. Our year has been a happy one—new classrooms, friendships, gowns— But that old United spirit, we’ve maintained through ups and downs. Fourth year council has been active—new ideas were most replete, A meeting now, some duties then—we’d scarcely time to eat, When to the rescue came the Leathers with invi¬ tation sweet: “Would Council come to our house to partake of bread and meat?” Then it was—Costumes! Set! Revise those lines— there’s only an hour to go, For tonight is United’s Stunt Night, a time for hu¬ mour, wit, and so— We revisified our history, gave dull facts a sparkling glow, To prove, despite tradition, we “knew how” to steal a show! This event o’er, a new scheme arose To brighten our horizon, to chase away woes. Entertainment? Dancing? Snowflurries, the occasion for those. And to take best wishes to Eleanor, the queen that we chose. Then at last, the long-awaited!-—Christmas break begins today. “Well, I’ll sure get down to business — at some schoolwork, right away!” “What’s this about a party? Tally-ho, horses, you say? “Dear Professor: My term paper I can’t put before a sleigh!!” Well, just around the corner, there’s something else in store, For who can say that G-Day isn’t fun galore? And Grad’s Farewell, a fine occasion, what’s more An opportunity to wish success beyond the future’s door. The year’s events—’till once again With ominous April comes a solemn vein, A parting thanks to our professors, councils, stu¬ dents—best wishes to all three, And to future grads, our witness— “Better College could not be.” 18
