Grade nine boys must have one pant leg rolled and wear aprons. From a bevy of male bathing beauties, Lewis Tebbutt won the title of "Miss CCI of 1946," At the doer of the auditorium, the spectators were weleomed by a "witch" and a "ghost." •Two students, Matthews and McAdam, broUght a huge pump- kin used for decoration. They were forced (?) to eat a giant pumpkin pie. The programme consisted of a skit by fifth form, trio from third, coronet sale by Irma. Watt; skit from third and a solo by F. Denonnue. After the programme, there was dancing to music by the recoed player recently purchased by the CCI.
