Edito ria At the moment, it is primarily a chronicle, a record of results achieved and events which took place; as vi gilant as the fabulous creature from which it takes its name. It ' s unfortunate that it doesn ' t have a hundred hands as well. Instead, while the himdred clicking eyes capture life fragments of each year, ten hands have to cut and carefully, place each chosen sticky-backed moment. And one at limch, cajoling, has to get words, commitments and time, on paper and otherwise, from the initially eager. These run into each other, becoming like the gray smudges left on your hands after reading the newspaper. Everyone is everybody else. For now, each report carries the same poignant, bittersweet memories, out- standing moments and players, platitudes, statistics, in-jokes and gratitude to the coach, which is how it should be. It is funny how each year and team seems to be better than the last or, similarily, how the junior school boys seem to get smaller each year. Ultimately , I suppose, teams will explode from not being able to cope with such incredible feelings of self-wonderfulness and jimior school boys wall shrink completely out of existence. It puts me in mind of the line from TIME TABLE . We are all guilty of it. I think the yearbook is better than in years past and this year ' s, in particular, is probably the best, or, at least the one with the best creative intentions, that I have seen. Some things which are worth noticing this year, apart from the strangely shaped S on the cover which has been there for quite a while, are the use of new and varied photographic techniques, spot colour, type sizes and colours, and the literary section, containing the winners of the literary contest which represent the best submitted work in the school, designed solely by Mr. Snowden whose other major creative work is currently on display in the east wing of Walker House. Perhaps the major reason the book is set apart from those of previous years is that the actual editors, Dave Green and Rob Cartotto, are competent photographers and work well in the dark room which means that they don ' t have to rely on some photographer ' s interpretation of their demands; they can carry out their concepts from beginning to end themselves. This, ultimately, is the only way to produce a cohesive yearbook. Future editors should find themselves forced to concentrate on and believe in their designs and ideas, which is really how it should be. To this end, hopefully, some of Mr. Snowden ' s idealism, enthusiasm and perception will be infused into future and prospective editors, contributing writers and photographers.
