to confirm 18 people, 5 of
whom were Tech students.
They are: Gwen Cummins,
Ed Gonsoulin, George
Hawkins, Roy Henckel,
and Mrs. Yolanda Mc-
Laughlin.
This confirmation class
has been meeting at St.
Matthews (Canterbury
House) every Wed. night

tends to continue meeting
twice a month as a Bible
study group. Mr. Denson

Directly following the

ception an informal supper
and get-together was held
at the rectory in order
that the Bishop could meet
and talk with Canterbury
members. Supper was
served by Mrs. Lane Den-
son, wife of the Rev. Lane
Denson.
J. Paul Sheedy* Was An Ugly Duckling Till
Wildroot Cream-Oil Cave Him Confidence
"Sheedy, you’re quacking up”, snorted his girl friend. "Your appearance is
fowl. Why don’t you wise up to Wildroot Cream-Oil ?” So J. Paul marshed
right down to the store and pecked up a bottle. Now he’s the sharpest
duck in school because his hair looks handsome and
healthy . . . neat but never greasy. When last seen he
was sipping a chocolate moulted with the prettiest
chick on campus ( . . . and she caught the bill!) So if
the gals are giving you the bird, better get some
Wildroot Cream-Oil . . . eider a bottle or handy tube.
Guaranteed to drive most swimmin’ wild !
* of 131 So. Harris Hill Rc/., Williamsville, N. Y.
Wildroot Cream-Oil
gives you confidence
It’s that new V8 in the ’57 Chevrolet.
It’s as quiet as a contented cat and
as smooth as cream . . . and it’s
cat-quick in response when you call
for action!
No household tabby sitting in a sunny
window ever purred more softly than
Chevy’s new V8 engine. You can
scarcely tell when it’s idling.
But when you nudge the accelerator,
you know it’s there, all right! Its right-
now response keeps you out of highway
emergencies. It overpowers steep hills
with such ease they seem like level
landscape.
This new Chevrolet V8 puts up to 245
high-compression horsepower* under
your command! It’s sassy, sure—but as
tame to your touch as a purring pussy-
cat. Come try the smoothest V8 you
ever put a toe to.
