& THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tuesday, April 21, 1964 OCCI's Spring Musicale 'One Of The Best Ever' By RUTH ANNE TAVES (OCCI Reporter) As most of you know, our Senior Band .made a trip to Welland on Friday, Apr. 19. The buses left the school at 11 a.m. and arrived in Welland at 2. p.m. They received a warm welcome and prepared to play in the student assembly. After the assembly, the play- ers were assigned to their bil- lets and headed to their houses for supper. In the evening there was a party for both the Cen- tral and Welland bands at Wel- land Collegiate. Central's Dance Band played for part of, the dance. Facilities were also available for the students to) play basketball and volleyball, | with refreshments provided in| the cafeteria. The next morning there was | a 'Music Clinic' for the two} bands at the school with a guest | conductor, After lunch the band | travelled to Seagram's Tower | at Niagara Falls for a sight-| seeing trip and returned . for supper at the billets. At 8 p.m. | both bands gave a concert in the school gym. After refresh-; ments in the cafeteria, the play- | ers boarded the buses again| and headed for home. | Everyone on the trip said they had a wonderful time and received a very warm recep- | tion in Welland. They are all looking forward to May 1 when} the Welland band returns the! visit. | Club Told Stay In School The Keystone Club of the| Simcoe Hall Boys' Club (East- | view) held their weekly meet- ing Wednesday evening with the guest speaker being Harold Whitebread from the advertis- ing department of General Motors. Mr. Whitbread used the film _"Aim for the Top" to illustrate the operation of all departments of a successful new car dealer- ship. The film specifically dealt with three areas, namely: (a) Service' -- from lubrication | person to the supervisor of a! service department. (b) 'Office procedure'"--from assistant bookkeeper to the gen- eral manager of an office. (c) 'Sales personnel"-- from junior used car salesman to the owner of the business. At the conclusion of the film, many questions were put to the floor at which time it was point- ed out that the advantages of remaining at school were all- important. One of the biggest concerns of the group was: If one is go- ing to work in any area of in-| dustry, what education is re-| quired to do the job and ad-| vance? Mr. Whitbread pointed out that the individual must try to determine what he is best fitted for and work, through education, to this end. Dave Muir, Keystone Club | president, voiced the apprecia- tion of the group at the con- clusion of the discussion. } THEMISTIC MUSEUM DARTMOUTH, N.S. (CP) -- R. M.' Hume, an official of the National Gallery of Canada, said here recently the city might select as themes for its proposed museum -- a Centen- nial project--the settlement of Quakers and Nantucket whal- ers, or early skate manufactur- ing for which the city became internationally famous. Central's Spring Musicale was one of the best ever put on at OCCI. The music was excellent and the dance costumes very colorful! Five boys playing accordions, known at the Ex- celsian Quintet, played three numbers beautifully and were well-receivéd by the audience. There were Folk Dances from Israel, Russia, Scotland, Uk- raine and Greece. An American Folk Dance, done _ hillbilly-style, provided some comedy for the audience, along with the Boys' Ballet Group. Two girls, Mary Dolishny and Helen Debicki, performed a modern dance en- titled "Temptation."" The Swed- ish Ball Rhythms Group, their blue uniforms contrasting with the orange balls, made a thrilling debut and the Rhyth- mics Group, in bright red uni- forms, kept up the hign stan- dard of the whole Musicale. Central's three bands played several pieces to round off a perfect performance. I am sure all those who took part in the Musicale are very grateful to Mr. Winkler, our music teach- er, for his unfaltering direction of the bands and to Mrs. Har- ris, our girls' physical educa- tion teacher, for the time she put into getting the dance groups ready. PRESENTATION Mr. Winkler was presented with a gift from the three bands as he is leaving Central at the end of this term. I am sure the students will miss his direction in the music depart- ment. EXHIBITS CANCELLED The Art, Science, Home Eco- nomics and Industrial Arts Ex- hibition has been cancelled as our calendar is already crowd- ed to capacity. On Friday, the 24th, there will be a gymnas- tics meet in Central's gymna- sium... Several girls from tral are participating and presently working hard te ish up their routines. We them the best of luck! Sales for the Grad Dance May 8 have increased quit noticeably in the last week a it looks as if the dance will a fine success. The girls a often found in groups discuss- ing styles of dresses, and material, and whenever a scream is heard you know that two girls have the same style of dress in mind. The boys The dance is called Shadaro- ba, and has a castle theme, with the main colors being blue and silver. The School Services Club is busy right now build- ing the castle.
