Photograph of Susan Hrynkiw seated in front of a calendar page 'January 1961'. Caption reads: What's ahead for Kitimat in 1961? Crystal-ball gazer, six months old Susan Hrynkiw, daughter of Mr. & Mrs. Ted Hrynkiw, 56 Capilano, is apparently delighted with what she sees, sunshine, happiness and chuckles probably. Here's hoping Susan is right and that 1961 will bring all that and prosperity to every one in Kitimat.

Photograph of lighting contest third place. Mr. and Mrs. Chester Sojka, 20 Heron, won third prize in Alcan's Christmas lighting contest. The house is located in the centre section of a three-plex unit. It is outlined with lights and the garage has been utilized to feature a large panel of the Three Wise Men following the start while a floodlight adds attractive lighting to the scene. High overhead is a "Star of Bethlehem" while seemingly ready to come on the driveway is the beloved figure of all children, Santa Claus.
