Report 1 : 5T9 Civils Apparatus: 77 idiots, several supervisors, sundry demis, Lou Emerson. Procedure: Submit fee of $99.15 to O.J. Take some youthful engineers and some Bigwin beauties to a dance. Five weeks later hold a dance at the St. Regis. Take field trip to Burlington Skyway and around Toronto area. Observations: Instructor suggested the party go to Station H on hill. Multitude of subjects taken, interesting, dull, or poor. Attendance hit new high of 22.0 percent. Lab. Courses were especially obligatory. Conclusions: (1) Students suggested instructors go to Station H not on hill. (2) Basil and Oscar were overjoyed — at attendance. (3) No relief is in sight.

This year, even if it is the first, we managed to purchase one-third of a girl at the Skule auction for SHARE. She was rather useless in this condition however so we fitted her back together and had a legal? draw for her. Need- less to say, we lost our third. In athletics, the class was well represented on Jr. Skule teams. Five men played football, three soccer, and one hockey. George Huovinen has done very well on the diving team. However the most active group in the class is the drinking team. This group holds regular weekly practises in the Red Lion Room. This writer has often heard reports that engineers are an illiterate group, and now he is forced to believe it. It must be terrible to be unable to tell the difference between the words men ' s and ladies ' , eh Ross? Possibly the envious artsman who joined us in our picture could straighten you out! In the interests of scientific research Marv, class projectionist, has been showing extremely educational slides between lectures. It was most unfortunate that the whole class could not attend our party on the Queen ' s Week- end last term. The party was held in one of the local hotels and a good time was had by all who attended. 28
