Scope and Content

Seven black-and-white negative photographs featuring Aldborough School scenes of children and teachers around the school, on November 25, 1965.

R12 S1 Sh5 B1 202a was published in the West Lorne Sun on November 25, 1965, with the caption: "Inspector R. E. Rawlings heard a number of Aldborough Public School children read Monday afternoon when he made one of his inspection trips to the school. Here Donald McIntyre reads for the inspector, while Connie Johnston and Christine Shierer wait their turns."

R12 S1 Sh5 B1 202d was published in the West Lorne Sun on November 11, 1965, with the caption: "Secret Ballot was "out the window" as far as election officials and voters at Aldborough Public School were concerned in Monday's mock election. Here a group fo students crowd the polling booth which is being presided over by Duncan McPhail, son of Mr. and Mrs. Neil McPhail, Oak Grove, assisted by Susan Gilbert, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ray Gilbert, Eagle."

R12 S1 Sh5 B1 202f was published in the West Lorne Sun on November 11, 1965, with the caption: "Political Candidates and election officials in Monday's mock election at Aldborough Public School are: returning officer Allan Carroll, son of Mr. and Mrs. Harold Carroll, Crinan, and deputy Bonnie Mistele, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Mistele, Rodney. Catherine Ford, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Lou Ford, Rodney, was the PC candidate, Don Rose, son of Mr. and Mrs. Wesley Rose, Eagle, was the Liberal candidate and Jane Johnston, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Nelson Johnston, Clachan, was the NDP candidate. No students would allow their names to be linked with either the Social Credit Party or the Credististes, so the names of the national leaders were used and not a single vote was cast in their favor."
