REMINDER: Magrath United Church Bazaar, Centre Village Mall this Thurs. Friday & Sat. A most enjoyable evening was had Thurs­day, October 23, 1980 by teachers, board members and division representatives of the Cardston School Div. as Magrath hosted the annual Fall Dinner and induction activities. M.C. for the evening was Mr. George Taylor. Prior to the lovely hot roast beef dinner prepared and served under the dir­ection of the Magrath Band Parents Ass’n., 13 teachers were inducted into the A.T.A.- Heraldine Neilson, Nardene Broadhead, Vicky Woolf, Marsha Jensen, Dianne Quinton, Susan Leavitt, Cheryl Trudgeon, Joann Low, Laurol McClung, Burns Alston Robert Pankhurst, Steve Brockway, Richard Fox. While most of the above are new in the teaching profession, Mr. Steve Brockway, recently appointed band director in Magrath, hails from south of the border and is >a seasoned veteran. It was also very nice to see Richard Fox inducted; Hopefully, he will lead the way for many other Canadian Natives We wish all of them well and many rewarding years in this most important profession. Five retiring teachers were also honored by the Cardston School Board and the A.T.A. after many years of teaching service. Those leaving the profession (perhaps we should say leaving the area of classroom instruct­ion, for I doubt these people will ever stop teaching) are: Ada Blackmore (who taught this writer in Grade 1 in 1941) Rose Edgmond, Laura Vadnais, Viola Blackmore, Lynn Beazer. Dessert was garnished with an excellent program displaying a portion of the tremend­ous talent within the local. The general feeling of the nearly 200 guests was an even ing well spent. Our special thanks to those who helped make it a success. G. Pilling, L.C.O.
