In his message he said "His word is poetry, his poetry is wisdom: Behold how good and pleasant it is when brothers dwell along in unity, for such is the will of God". The pianist was Mr. Garth Mailman, a first-year Seminarian. Mrs. Hachborn welcomed the members and friends of the Auxiliary, also a representative of the Women's Association, Mrs. L. Schaus. Dr. P.

During the year 7 Executive meetings were held. She presented Gift Certificates to 3 Seminary Graduates. She said "1970 starts a new decade and will be remembered by many different people for many different reasons. For us who are here today, signifying our interest in this learning centre, 1970 will be remembered as the that Willison Hall, the original building of Waterloo College, was demolished. since our last meeting (in 1969) It had provided a familiar landmark on Albert Street for almost 60 years". She said that her four years as president were made easier because of the support of her Executive and University personnel, as well as members of the Auxiliary.
