An unqualified success, is the best des-
cription of Sid Dyke's Retirement Surprise
Party/Roast which took place Thursday May
7 in the North Cafe. The event was well
organized by the Commercial Art department
and well attended by students, staff and
faculty who had all heard about it well in
advance. All, one might add, except Sid
Dyke who was somehow kept oblivious of the
plans until the moment he entered the Cafe
and stood blinking in utter shock for ten
minutes or so. After allowing people to
feed themselves and stock up. on beer and
wine, and letting Sid's nerves settle a
little, there were speeches and presenta-
tions by such distinguished individuals as
Al Zimmerman, the Art Dept. office staff,
Greg Lee, Paul Gallagher, and Ted Kingan
(who incidentally performed magic tricks).
If you were there you were undoubtedly im-
pressed by Sid's reply -- an off the cuff
speech that sounded as if it has been pro-
fessionally rehearsed. Once ensconced the
celebrators decided to stay and make merry
for as long as possible, so it was quite
some time before Sid, his presents, his
card and enough left over cake to feed him
for several weeks, managed to wander off
home. Goodbye Sid, we'll miss you.
