The bur- sary to be awarded would be in addition to those made annually by the Legion district and the ladies auxiliaries. Service Officer Rick Pillage said that there were many de- serving students in our looality and it would be very hard to single out the most deserving. He suggested that the award be combined with an essay com- petition among the applicants. His suggestion was saluted and the public relations officer was subsequently awarded the port- folio of essay competition or- ganizer. Plans are now being made and it is hoped to make a further announcement concern- ing the competition during Na- tional Veterans Week in June. The appointment of Comrade Madge Barrott to branch reso- lutions chairman was announced at the meeting. Our fair com- rade is also presently the Leg- ion Zone E2 resolutions chair- man.
