On October 25 in the Scout Hall some 100 friends and club members enjoyed another such dinner which ac- cording to all reports was out of this world in culinary art. After the President's welcome, toast to the Queen and Grace the affair was for- mally launched. Following the dinner 0. O. Hamil- ton again thanked the Guide Mothers for making us all feel so uncomfort- able, but such a nice feeling, and then read a short resume of the club's acti- vities for the year. It was a very impressive report apd the club _mem- bers must be commended for carrying out the principles of conservation so honesty. Ben Smith then thanked the club members for their assistance in carrying out the requests of the Ontario Department of Lands and Forests. The Chinese Auction was next on the program with Bill Owens from Oshawa acting as auctioneer. .Bill is 1st Vice-President of the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters Inc. This auction is one of the Club's outstanding guest pleasers and some of the winners were: Milt Butson, Electa Vance, Ann Lown, Edward P. Seagram, C. A. Seagram, Rich Ro- zombowski, Bronwen Williams, Bev- erly Napiashowski, Murray Spears, Jim Read (2), Cecil King, Tom Harris and Ethel Hutchinson.

Harold has had this particular "area under his. supervision for quite a spell as Conservation Officer. Next it was trophy time with the bowling awards going to Wilbur Vance, Jack Healy, Milt Butson, Mur- ray Spears, Harry DeShane, Harlin Davey and Ben Smith. Ben Smith won the bass trophy and will be known as Ben Bass Smith for a year. | ! ~The shooting, awards included four | "ladies, Joan "| Club has ever undertaken.

King, Bruce Shaw, Harlin Davey, Hilton Simpson, Richard Prentice, Bob Walker, Dennis Dawson, Joel Cawker, Edward Brak, Hank Stokes, John Wil- liams, Brian Simpson and Richard Ro- zombowski completed the men's awards. Two very fine films, one "Red Four- teen" and "Ice Fishing in Lake Sim- coe" proved enlightening and educa- tional especially so as the latter one was filmed by The Ontario Depart- ment of Lands and Forests. No can Service or Conservation Club survive without the material backing of the merchants in their town.

November 24th, Friday Port Perry High Commencement Friday evening, Nov. 8rd, was the climax of many days, even months and years, of preparation when certi- ficates, diplomas, trophies and. prizes were presented to the senior students of Port Perry High School at their Annual Commencement Exercises. The Junior section of this annual pro- gram was held on Thursday after. noon, The Commencement exercises pro- vide the one time of the year when students who stand well in the aca- demic subjects, as well as other fields of endeavour, come into the spotlight. So often our attention is attracted to the more visual accomplishments, athletics, drama, sewing or shop work. It is easy to pass by the student who does well in the academic field be- cause his achievements are not as easy to see. It is well to know that at least once during the year these high ranking students are the recip- ients of the honours. The one unfor- tunate part is that there is only one first prize. Teachers must sometime wish that 'there was an opportunity to honour all those students who have worked well and obtained good marks, even though they have not been first. Lethaps a suggestion niight be made that at this time each year the names of those students who have done well but who have not received a prize could be read from an "Hon- ourable mention" list. Mr. Murray Croxall, the school pianist, entertained with a piano selection School The speaker of the evening, Mr. Reginald Moase, B.A., M.ED., Tor- onto Teacher's College, brought a message of encouragement to stud. ents and grads. He pointed out that the teachers were truly concerned with their success even though they set up hurdles for the students to leap. In graduating, he said, the student not only gained release from school routine but had acquired many accomplishments, both manual and mental. These skills were the result of growing, assisted by parents and teachers who gave the best training they could provide. Mr. Mouse said, after graduation a new and more interesting era opens for the young person. He will con- tinue to develop and to change wheth- er he continues his studies in some other institute of learning or whether he enters thgbusiness world. He will be in a world of adults, which he will not find unfriendly provided he fol- lows good ideals and himself appears friendly. The frecdoms of this new world must be supported by reason (organi- zation and law), and we need also self discipline. Miss Kathleen Trenka, as Valdic- torian, spoke of the work of the past years, thanking the teachers for their assistance during that time. She spoke of the others in her graduating class and told us where each one is tion in this or that endeavour. of some of the For the names - prize winners read The Hilltop Herald in this issue. Public Buildings For Useas Fall-out Shelters The County Engineering Depart- ment will conduct a survey over the next six months, to determine the suitability of public buildings as radio- active fall-out shelters, County Coun- cil decided last week. Included in report on county roads and bridges was this request from the Provincial Emergency Measures Or- ganization." The report states: ~~ "The Provincial EMO has requested that the Protection Factor of Munici- pal buildings and ervitical structures be determined." As Co-ordinating Engineer for the County, the County Engineer, R. E. Sims, has been requested to com- mence work on the survey. "The survey will need the full time services of one man", said Mr. Sims, "and would take six months and cost about $3,000." The EMO has requested that this survey would be carried out under the direction of the Engineering De- partment, but would not be the res- ponsibility of this department to fi- nance the survey unless approved by council. The expenditure would be bourne by the county and would not be charged to the subisdized budget of << < to commence at 1 p.m. and Election day to be Monday, December 4; 1961.
