Not only is it the date today, but it is also how many school days we have left until the summer! Whats up? This is Bean week. Today we have Janine Nash live and unplugged from MDHS, helping to hook you up with al] of this week's important information. Tomorrow concludes the drama department's four days of "Caught in the Acts", which were short, pee- your-pants-laughing comedies. The people involved all received a credit for their performances and a really fun (and funny) time. For co-op students, this Wednesday marked their co- op fair. It was held during TAP in the cafeteria and many unique posters and props were shown. It was an exciting way to lure students into the co-operative education pro- gram. Says one of this semester's co-op students, "It was a really interesting experience and helped me to leam a lot about what the career world will be like. All students who are eagerly awaiting University acceptance will not have to worry too much longer. All letters will be sent out by June 9th. This leaves only one week before admissions decisions have to be made by students. They must reply by June 16th. Graduating stu- dents are also eagerly awaiting their prom. This will be held on June 27th, but tickets must be purchased by June 10th, for $70.00 each. At the same time you can also buy yourself a nifty 'class of...' grad tee for $20.00. Don't forget to book limousines and take both the prom and the recovery day off of work. Coming up ... Grad Breakfast. This is an annual event held by Prefects. The ones who will be running it are the people interested in being a part of the head com- mittee next year. Keep an ear open for the dates and make sure to join your peers for juice and bagels, along with voting for valedictorian. Have a great week Milton and enjoy the weather. In less than a month there will be no more Messenger arti- cles for the whole summer, so catch us while you can. DATEMINE DRURY Julianna Clarke Sora Grimbly Jordan Lumb Drum roll please ... This past week at Drury has been a show- case of talent, athletic skill, and intelligence! First off, last week marked the announcement of this year's Valedictorians. The honourable students who will be representing their respectful graduating classes should be extremely proud of themselves. None other than the elite Lori Wollaston is the valedictorian for the OAC class, and Evan Murray is the hon- ourable representative for the graduating grade twelve "new curriculum" student body. These two scholars were elected by their peers last week after the speech presentations, and both have achieved academic excellence. As well, Drury's literary talents and artistic abilities were per- formed here last night at the annual Coffee House, held by the notorious Mr. Keane. The auditorium was transformed into an intimate setting, complete with candlelight, while the stage was the place where some of our top talent was showcased, includ- ing poetry-reading and dancing. Our auditorium will again be the venue of talent-display next Tuesday, May 27th, when the ""Swing into Spring" Concert will take place. The music department will surely dazzle the audience with their vocal and instrumental ability. The dinner will occur at 6:00 p.m., fol- lowed by the award ceremony. Some members of the music department were the partici- pants in the first-ever "Drury Idol" vocal auditions. Unfortunately, other participants were not at all vocally-talent- ed, but sang anyway! There were soloists as well as group per- formers who entertained the judges this past Wednesday dur- ing TAP. The real performances will occur next Wednesday ... See you there! A sight to be seen was last week's boys' soccer season-end- ing game. The guys in green battled it out against Reding's Royals last Thursday. Unfortunately, our team's forwards didn't pull through, and the game ended with a tie of 1-1. The soccer team players, as well as al of the other fine Spartan Athletes, were sure to confirm their Athletic points and SAS points for this year, as the deadline for these Athlete-of-the- Year deciders was today. And as the curtain closes on the talent showcase here at ECD, these Drury reporters would like to give every student here a pat on the back for another year of Drury excellence and achievement. ISU's are being completed. spring is in the air and the school year is just about winding down to an end ...Not that we' re too excited! "THE ROYAL REPORT" Jenna Masciantonio Meredith Murphy DISHOP REDINO 16H SCHOOL BR Fact of the week: Only 18 school days left! Grade Rep elections rest just beyond the metaphori- cal corner.

Tickets became available this week for $45. Ladies, please ensure that your gentlemen finance this minute expense. The formal takes place at St. Vladimir's Cultural Centre. As a school of well-rounded individuals. students take advantage of every opportunity to travel and expand their knowledge. The Senior Band left Thursday morning for Quebec City where they will bring a little of Halton's musical talent. The outdoor-ed class is "gearing" up for their trip to Algonquin this coming Wednesday. They will be left for four days to survive on three small islands on North Tea Lake. Canoeing, portaging and fending off black flies are among the struggles they will face. Be strong out-trip- pers these challenges, so we're told, build character. BR's track athletes competed at GHAC this week. Wednesday they traveled to St. Mary's and Thursday to McMaster University. All winners from this competi- tion will continue to the Halton Championships. Good Luck Royals! "A friend is one who walks in when others walk ot. -Walter Winchell .
