dice."
At this time the members went
down to CKNX where Bob Carbert
conducted them on a tour of the stat-
ion, explaining the features of the
different rooms and offices. The con-
trol room looked to be a wonderful
place but really beyond our ken. In
the broadcasting room the CKNX Barn
Dance gang were tuning up and the
members were taken in and enjoyed
both seeing and hearing this program
being put on the air. We wish to thank
Bob 'Carbert and CKNX for this op-
portunity of seeing this interesting
place, very few of the members had
been in the station before.
On return to the meeting the roll
cell was answered by a product manu-
factured in Huron County. The meet-
ing closed ley singing The Queen, after
