An audience of over 300 at- tended the Variety Show with Doug Stefurak, president of the student's council, chairman. -- Grade 13's skit, the plight of a variety of teachers attempt- 'ing to interest and instruct a 'very dull student, drew roars of laughter from the audience, even though it was done in French which slipped occasion- ally as the actors themselves were overcome with amusement. A group of boys, dressed as bal- lerinas, also drew tears of laugh- ter. Another highlight was When students acted as a school staff meeting, with the principal's son 'impersonating his father. School cheerleaders, who 'placed second in the recent dis- trict meet, presented some of their acts. Three groups of folk singers were enjoyed.

The school choir sang twice. Terry McParland gave two humorous monologues.
