Tn die loop van die jaar is 'n verskeidenheid programme aangebied en die bestuur sowel as die lede van die Vereniging kan met bevrediging terugkyk op die jaar se bedrywighede.

G.E.B. SPEECH AND DRAMA Entries for this Festival were limited to a few mid-school boys. It is a great pity that seniors should think this sort oftraining unnecessary. Spoken English in South Africa is deteriorating, and nothing impresses the listener so much as a language well spoken. Entrants worked hard at their selections, namely speeches, poetry, sight reading, prose extracts, and scripture reading. Every thing except sight reading had to be memorised,and there were some especially interesting lectures delivered by Hugo, Levin, Darby, Tasker and Venables. Symbols obtained; P.Allen: A and A. H.C. Best: A and B. R.E. Darby: A,B and B. R.J. Hardwick: A and A—. R. R.Hearder: B and B. P. Hugo: A—,B f and B. D.R.Levin: A,A, A,and A. J. R.Stamp: A, A,A— and B-t-. A. M.Steveni: B and B+ D.J.
