Betty Jenkin (Veitch) YHS 1953 Congratulations once again on an excellent YOGA Newsletter. I did enjoy it. Could you please pass on two messages for me: 1. To - Judith Dolan (Dickson) on Page 6. Dear Judith, I was delighted to see the photo of the YHS Choir. I never had that one. However, I am in the back row, third from the left, just behind Jenny Scott. My name was Betty Veitch. The first of the G&S shows that we did was "The Pirates of Penzance". I was in the Chorus. I was in third form at the time.

His daughter Beryl Hatch, who was in Form Five sang Edith.

My father, Gordon Veitch, a teacher at the Tech School, sang the Pirate King. Bill Sharman, who was in my class, sang Samuel. That was the first of many Gilbert and Sullivans for me. 2. To Gwen Rodda on Page 9. Dear Gwenda, I don't know whether you remember Betty Veitch, who lived around in Railway Avenue, quite close to both you and Miss Williams. I was taught by Miss Williams in Grade 3, and would love to get in touch with her again. I wonder whether you would be able to provide me with a way of contacting her. It's lovely to get in touch with the past when there is nothing to go back and see. Many thanks for all your wor
