Mr. Jukes' closing remarks in- dicated to those present that the newly-formed Oshawa and Dis- trict Chapter of OACETT is di- rected at self-improvement . of those technicians certified and to encourage the furthering of education of themselves and stu- dent groups. The new chapter extends an invitation to those who are attending advanced technical evening classes and are employed in industry to apply for affiliate chapter mem- bership, A. brief period of open discus- sion was enjoyed by all with light refreshments closing the meeting. Anyone interested in obtain- ing additional information with regard to Chapter membership or affiliate membership is asked to contact John Jukes at 728- 2928,
