ERNEST FLOYD WILLOUGHBY Dedication We, the students of Kelvin High School, gratefully dedicate this annual to Dr. Floyd Willoughby, teacher, principal, and friend who, during his forty-one years of asso¬ ciation with our school has shown himself to be continuously interested in our work, welfare, and future. 41 Years of Devoted Service May I at the outset touch ever so lightly on some of the early milestones in the life and career of Doctor Ernest Floyd Willoughby. These are sign posts along the highway of Life, which mark so indelibly for him such unforgettable places and events as Stouffville, Ont., the place of his birth, Markham, where he completed his High School course, Darlington, where in all the vigor and buoyant optimism of youth, he first embarked on a long and illustrious teaching career. Then, two and a half years later came McMaster University, where in 1913 he graduated with the degree of Bachelor of Arts, specializing in the field of science. After a year in the College of Education Dr. Willoughby came to the Kelvin Technical High School as Science Master, in September 1914. For the next twenty-four years he taught science at Kelvin. Thousands of pupils passed through his hands during this period. What it meant to them in counsel, guidance, and knowledge is incalculable. It was during his stay at Kelvin he received, in 1931, his degree of Doctor of Pedagogy from the University of Toronto. The next eight years, 1938 to 1946, were spent as Principal of the Mulvey Junior High School. During these years he also engaged in many outside activities closely allied with the teaching profession. In 1940-41 he was President of the Winnipeg District Association; in 1942-43-44 he was President of the Manitoba Teachers ' Society; in 1944-45 he was President of the Canadian Teachers ' Federation. In August, 1946, he represented the Canadian Teachers ' Federation at the World Conference of the Teaching Profession at Endi- cott, N.Y. In October of 1946, just two months after coming to Kelvin High School as Principal, he was selected as one of the five official Canadian delegates to the first general conference of the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization, held in Paris. It was an appointment which reflected great dignity and prestige, not only on Dr. Willoughby, but on the teaching profession as a whole. During Dr. Willoughby ' s tenure of office as Principal for a period of nine years, Kelvin ' s high standard of scholarship was at all times maintained. With his wide background and experience, his proven ability, his asso¬ ciation with the students of this city, an association which dated over a period of forty-one years, his decisions on policy regarding staff and student body were always characterized by a fairness and a wisdom. Music, drama, and athletics as well as scholarship were maintained at a high degree of perfection during Doctor Willoughby ' s regime. F.G.G. FOREWORD Young men ond young women — a thousand strong or thereabouts claim Kelvin as their school today. Think back for a moment to yesterday. Every year since Kelvin first opened in 1912, the halls have echoed to the chatter and laughter of a host of boys and girls. To assess the impact of this multitude of former students on Winnipeg and Canada poses a task which defies the imagination. Nevertheless we know that many graduates of Kelvin have become outstanding members of pro¬ fessional and business circles, leaders in the public life of our city and nation. And now you take your place in the procession of the years to follow knowledge like a sinking star, beyond the utmost bound of human thought or, less poetically — to get an education. Many writers have defined Education but I like the definition of Nietzsche, the nineteenth century philosopher, best of all. He says Dancing in all its forms cannot be excluded from the curriculum of all noble-education: dancing with the feet, with ideas, with words, and need I add that one must be able to dance with the pen? At first glance the connection of dancing with education may seem a remote one — but look at it again ■— dancing ideas •— the very essence of education •— the mind awakened. As you have worked and played during the year, many of you have caught something of the dancing in education ■—■ the joy of self-expression, of new ideas, of new worlds to conquer. Your achievements in studies and other school activities have written large the role of ' 55- ' 56 students in the great Kelvin tradition. COURAGE - TRUTH - RIGHT. R. J. COCHRANE, Principal. This year, we have been extremely fortunate in having such a well known and distinguished journalist as James H. Richardson, city editor of the Los Angeles Examiner, write for our yearbook. Mr. Richardson was born in Detroit, moved to Winnipeg when still young, and attended Kelvin in its first year of operation. In addition to being editor of our first yearbook, he made nearly every sports team with the exception of girls ' volleyball. Richardson is unremitting in his fight against corruption. He has solved as many mysteries as mc t detectives, expects perfection from his reporters, and wcrks harder than any of them. —Revised from the dust jacket of his book, “For the Life of Me . Famous Kelvin Grad On a bitterly cold night, more than 45 years ago, a bitterly cold boy pushed open the heavy doors of the Carnegie Library on William Avenue. In a few minutes, after he had returned his armful of books to the librarian, he went into what to him was a wonderland. The wonderland of all those books standing thick and tight on the shelves. This was one of his greatest joys. He could pick and choose and take home with him the books he devoured with an insatiable hunger. The title of a book caught his eye . . . THE JUNGLE. He took it home with him thinking it was a story about Africa. Instead, it was a story of the stockyards and slaughter houses of Chicago. It was a story of poverty, despair, cruelty, and injustice and it lighted a fire within him which set the course of his life. It was the fire of the crusader against a man ' s in¬ humanity to man, against corruption and abuse of power, and against evil and wrong in all guises. The boy decided to become a writer and dreamed of some day writing a book that might do to others what The JUNGLE had done to him. In 1912 he left Kelvin Technical High School to become a cub reporter on the old Winnipeg Telegram. Almost half a century later that Kelvin boy, now past 60, received a letter at his home in Arcadia, California, a suburb of Los Angeles. It read: Dear Mr. Richardson: Having been selected editors of this year ' s Kelvin yearbook, we were faced with the problem of finding some former Kelvin student to write an article for the book. After making many inquiries and doing a fair amount of research, we came across your book, FOR THE LIFE OF ME, in the library. We feel, after learning of your days at Kelvin, that you would be our best bet. We would be honoured if you would write us an article. It was signed, Martin Levitt and Sam Corrigan. It set me dreaming. I could see one of these two boys pushing open the doors of the Carnegie Library as that other boy had so long ago. I could see him in that wonderland and could see him picking a book from the shelves as that other boy had picked THE JUNGLE. And it was MY book! The dream of that bitterly cold boy on that bitterly cold night had come true! And Martin and Sam let me tell you something else: Not so long ago I received a telephone call here at my home from that man who wrote THE JUNGLE, Upton Sinclair, renowned around the world. He had read my book and wanted to talk to me about it. When I saw him in his home only a few miles from mine he took my hand and said: This is what books can do. I am very proud to have written THE JUNGLE for you to read and you should be very proud of having written your book for me to read. Three boys going to the Library, more than 45 years apart, and all this happens. (What ' s your book going to be about, Martin, and yours, Sam? And may I live to take your hands and say to you what Upton Sinclair said to me.) Oh, yes, I know you asked in another part of your letter than I should write about the early days in Kelvin. But, there is nothing more boresome or tiresome than an old man reminiscing. The temptation has been hard to overcome, however. The temptation to tell about Kelvin as it was when we were the first students there, in a brand new building. And about how I was the first editor of the first Kelvin publication, the KELVIN KALENDS, in 1912. About how I was quarterback on the first Kelvin foot¬ ball team, in fact the first high school football team in Winnipeg. About how we played St. James when it was a private school, and the Tigers, who had such players as Huffy Huffman and Steamer Maxwell. (Ask your fathers about them, or maybe, your grandfathers.) About how I played on the first Kelvin hockey team which won the provincial championship by twice defeat¬ ing Portage la Prairie. (One of the Kelvin stars was Freddie Frederickson who went on to become one of the greatest players in Canadian history.) About how I was catcher and captain of the Kelvin baseball team which defeated Central Collegiate for the championship. About the first school play given at Kelvin which I wrote and directed. And, about the Kelvin yell. Several years ago I made a trip to Winnipeg, the first since I left in 1913. And the first to greet me was Fred Parrish, a Kelvin classmate who is now president of the Grain Exchange. Mrs. Richardson and I had dinner with Fred and Vera and met their son. Bill, then going to Kelvin. Bill, said Fred, this is the man who wrote the Kelvin yell. I had forgotten it completely. It ' s still our yell, said Bill. Let ' s hear it, I said. And Bill and Fred gave it: K. T. H. S! K. T . H S! Are we in it? Well, I guess . . . and the rest of it. I have seldom been as happy as I was when they gave that yell. Jim, said Fred, you see, you ' ve joined the im¬ mortals. Now, with all the years behind me, I know the great importance of the years between the ages of 15 and 20. The whole course of one ' s life is set in those few de¬ cisive years. The lost souls are lost then. The fortunate then are always fortunate. I was one of the fortunate. For that I am ever thankful for having been the bitterly cold boy who went to the Library that winter night — for having been a Kelvin boy, too. The honour is not yours or Kelvin ' s, boys. The honour is mine for having been asked to write this. Life has been good enough to bring me some honours but none better than this. Nor more treasured. 4 (ONI i r STAFF ADMINISTRATION FACULTY - maintenance EVENTS COUNCIL yearbook eT CETERA - MUSIC vaRI ETY SHOW SPORTS SPORT COUNCIL INTER-HIGH FIELD day inTE r-roow field DAY ----- FOOTBALL features literary ary undergrads grads - SCHOLARSHIPS 5 (1) 8:59.

COCHRANE BA, ED. M. PRINCIPAL Kelvin students take pride in welcoming their new principal, Mr. R. J. Cochrane. Mr. Cochrane received his elementary and normal training in St. John, New Brunswick, followed by work at the University of Mani¬ toba and Harvard University. As well as teaching ten years at Kelvin, Mr. Cochrane has held posts at Hugh John Macdonald and Lord Selkirk, being principal of the latter. Even with such an intensive scholastic training Mr. Cochrane has found time to participate in such sports as baseball, basketball and football. He is in favor of extra¬ curricular activities and feels that these should be a part of every student ' s training. Mr. Cochrane ' s few recreation hours are spent read¬ ing and listening to music. Thus it can be seen that our new principal has much in common with both the teachers and students here at Kelvin. Mr. Fyles, our Vice-Principal, came to Kelvin in 1949. Previous to this he taught French, Latin, history and English in other Winnipeg high schools. As well as being a graduate of St. John ' s College in Arts and of the University of Manitoba in Education, he has studied philosophy at Edinburgh and has received his Master ' s degree in French from the University of Manitoba. Be¬ cause of his careful organization and his deep interest in all the many and varied school activities, Mr. Fyles is greatly admired and respected by both the faculty and the student body. W. A.

Mr. Harry Guest, another welcome addition, has held teaching positions at General Wolfe and Ralph Brown Schools in Winnipeg, and at one time was principal of the Swan River School. Thanks to Mr. Guest, Kelvin students received the opportunity to learn and to express their views on the international situation at meetings of the U.N. Club which he instituted. This year, Kelvin extended a hearty greeting to Mr. Edmund McGlenen, the school ' s first male music in¬ structor. Mr. McGlenen ' s experience includes teaching positions at Fort Garry and Vancouver Island. Another new face was to be found down in Kelvin ' s elementary woodworking shop. Mr. D. Nazeravitch, before coming to Kelvin, taught a grade seven class at Carpathia. Kelvin takes great pleasure in welcoming Miss I. Dickson.

Miss Thomson was educated at the Universities of Manitoba and Chicago. She aided greatly in the production of our opera and was an able adviser of the Et Cetera. Kelvin also welcomes Miss E. Sneizak, an addition to the office staff. Good luck in your stay at Kelvin. It is with deepest regrets that Kelvin sees the de¬ parture of Miss Jean Hamilton. During her stay at Kelvin, Miss Hamilton taught geography and history. Miss Hamilton is enjoying her leave of absence on a trip through the Americas. Although having spent but two short years at Kelvin, Miss Elizabeth Redmond was well liked by both teachers and students. At Kelvin, Miss Redmond taught English and French. She is now in Germany as an exchange teacher. While at Kelvin, Miss Eileen McKay taught English. She was also very active in the school ' s journalistic ventures, the Et Cetera, and the Yearbook. Miss McKay is now enjoying a European tour. Before arriving at Kelvin a year ago, Miss Margaret Talbot taught in the U.S. At Kelvin she was an Eng¬ lish instructor. Miss Talbot has now left the hallowed halls of Kelvin for a position at D.M.C.I. Mr. H. T. Potter came to Kelvin from Lord Roberts and at first took up the position of instruct or in the metal shop. Later, Mr. Potter was transferred to the drafting department. He is now teaching at the Technical Vocational School. Kelvin regrets the departure of Miss E. Gwynne, an efficient and well-liked member of the office secretarial staff. 13 FAREWELL ALMA MATER Dr. Willoughby, Dr. Saunderson, Teachers, Parents and Friends: Saying good-bye to high-school life is always a matter of great importance for any graduating class, but this year it is of greater significance than usual. It is im¬ portant not only because we are the graduates, but also because the predominant figure in our high school life is leaving Kelvin with us. The memory of our graduation will always be more vital because it was a time when student and principal together closed a phase of life. Dr. Willoughby may well be proud of the era that he s closing, for it has been one that has shaped thousands of lives such as our own, and has guided many to fame and honour. We graduates of 1955 have indeed been fortunate in receiving Dr. Willoughby ' s guidance throughout our high school years. We all thank him most gratefully for the influence he has had upon us, and we hope that his future years will be as rich and enjoyable as he has always hoped that those of his graduates would be. Our parents and teachers have also exerted a great influence upon our education. If we were to search the world over, we could never find better parents. Their constant love, interest, and patience have spurred us on. and in many cases have been the prime factors in our success today. We can never fully repay our parents for all they have done. The best we can do is strive to fulfill the hopes and expectations they hold for us. Teachers? Well, we have almost always considered them as a necessary evil with a weird passion for doling out detention slips and loading us with homework on weekends. Yet in these last few v eeks at Kelvin, most of us have seen the teachers in a different light. We are now beginning to realize how helpful they have been to us, and how eager they are to see us become well- informed citizens. Because of their keen interest in school activites, and their strong desire to educate us, they have spent many tireless hours for us in and out of the classroom. A full realization of our teachers ' value cannot and will not come to us until we have had a chance to use our knowledge in public. In the future, as men and women of the world, we shall silently thank our teachers a countless number of times for their guidance. Today, as a graduating class, we wish to express our deep appreciation for all their efforts on our behalf. We have led a busy life at Kelvin. Our fathers claim 1955 Valedictory by AVERILL IL.IFFE that the school course is much easier than it was in the good old days. Whether this is true or not, we cer¬ tainly have found time to participate in a great many more organized activities than they did. For instance, some of us have had the opportunity to develop our leadership potentials by working on the student council. Our athletes have participated in football, basketball, swimming, curling, and track and field events, the bovs making records at the annual Inter-High Track Meet, and the girls distinguishing themselves by winning city championships in both the volleyball and basketball leagues. Our Year Book editors have proved themselves worthy by introducing several new ideas which have been received with high acclaim by the student body. Our aspiring dramatists highlighted the year with the production of a three-act play, Nothing But the Truth. In the field of music we were proud to enter every possible class in the Manitoba Musical Festival, and prouder still to win both the Daniel MacIntyre Trophy and the highest mark awarded. As we leave Kelvin it is true that we leave these exciting high school activities. Yet they shall never escape us, for the memories shall live forever. Such experience will lead us on to greater, richer experiences. Now that we have completed this phase of our edu¬ cation we must move forward. We must continue to learn, for there is so much about us that is new. We must continue to achieve, for Canada has so much to offer. We must relinquish our carefree school days to younger students, and in their place we must assume responsibility to conduct our lives wisely, to make our own decisions, and to develop into good citizens. Eleven years ago we began our schooling at a time when the Second World War was drawing to a close. Today we end our schooling in a world of comparative peace. Now that we shall be taking our place in world affairs, it is our duty to help bring about a state of true peace for ourselves and the generations that follow. We must begin today to use the power in our hands. We can begin today, in our own community, in our own Canada. And now we say good-bye to Kelvin. Good-bye to Dr. Willoughby, Mr. Fyles, the teachers and staff and the undergraduates. The stage awaits us. The setting has been perfectly arranged. We are about to step before the lights for our debut. This is our world premiere. We must not fail the producer. We will not disappoint the audience. 14 The Council THE EXECUTIVE The Executive of the council meets with the advisors, Miss Sprung and Mr. Hoole, to dis¬ cuss the amount of a cash donation to charity.

Student Council Makes Headlines A YEAR OF PROGRESS THE MEMBERS of the Kelvin Student Council of 1955-56 under the competent guidance and initiative of President Dave Cross, have worked collectively and individually throughout the school term to make this a year of notable progress. Mainly because of the efforts of the President, inter-room hockey was successfully re-introduced to Kelvin after a lapse of many years. Early in March, the Council approved of Kelvin ' s joining the Junior Red Cross and, although the school did not actively partici¬ pate in that organization this year, the foundations were laid for a greater role in the future. As a substitute for a Careers ' Day, which was not held this year, the Council sponsored speakers who addressed assemblies during the study period. A very popular innovation was introduced by the Council in the form of music which was played on the P.A. system at noon. A school record library was also instituted. A new system of awards, which was conceived last year, in order to ensure equitable recognition for extra-curricular activities, was completed this year. Among the regular functions of the Council that were con¬ tinued were the noon study rooms and the Milk Bar. The annual Christmas Cheer Drive was better than ever. The council members in charge of these programs as well as those of the Social and Ethics Committees were especially notable for their enthusiasm and perseverence. In the realm of social activity, the Council sponsored a series of dances, beginning with the novel Witches ' Whirl and culminating with the festive Graduation Dance. All of the Student Council ' s activities and accomplishments could never be listed here, but it is sufficient to say that this com¬ paratively small group of students worked diligently throughout the entire school term to represent their classes efficiently on the Dave Cross student governing body and to promote the general welfare of President. Kelvin.

Editor Advisor Editor The “ET CETERA Keeps Kelvinites Informed This year ' s issue of the Et Cetera, Kelvin ' s monthly newspaper, was a big success, due to the wonderful articles, skillful editing, and the fact that regular newsprint was introduced. Several photographs were featured, including sport groups and a portrait of Mr. Cochrane. Among the articles were monthly news stories and regular sports, gossip, and biography columns, as well as editorials and interest stories. The staff had a lot of fun producing their journal, and certainly succeeded in satisfying the highest hopes of their readers, with a better than ever newspaper!

The program was broadcast at 5:00 cn Sunday afternoons, and consisted of a spcrts report, a social report, a hit parade from one cf the schools, and news from the sub¬ urban schools, plus a special weekly feature. Kelvin ' s annual Christmas cheer program was a big success this year, and was adeptly handled by a committee of the Student Council. Shown above are a group of students readying some bundles for the needy. U.N. GROUP U.N. SEMINAR This U.N. Discussion Group is the first of its kind in Manitoba. The success of this group was largely due to the hard work of the executive: President Frank Johnson( right); Vice-President Orde Morton (left); and Secretary Lynne Phillips (centre). Kelvin was represented at the 3rd annual U.N. Seminar, held at the U. of M. from July 12 to 16 by Lynne Downey and Frank Johnson. Both these students returned to the school this year, and wer e very active in starting a United Nations Dis¬ cussion Group. QUEEN OF KELVIN PERCY GENSER AWARD This year the crowning of Kelvin ' s Queen took place Friday, April 21, at the Press Night Prance. Running in the royal race were Joy Johnson, Maureen Finn, Marlene Darrach. Due to unforeseen circumstances, no King was crowned. Joy Johnson was named Kelvin ' s Queen. Congratulations Joy! Last year, as in previous years, Mr. Percy Genser awarded a sportsmanship award to two of our most popular, athletically- inclined students. Shown above ere Bill Kelsall and Judy Driscoll, who received the 1954-55 honour. 22 ’ 55-56 BIG YEAR IN MUSIC In September, when for the first time the mixed choir, bigger than ever, assembled in Room 12 to start their heavy six month ' s train¬ ing schedule, we all FELT that this was the beginning of the year which was to be the high water mark in Kelvin ' s musical history. The success of the Remembrance Day choir continued at the Annual Carol Service, pre¬ sented on December 4 in a well planned array of Christmas carols, and at the CBC western broadcast, which featured sparkling songs such as Twelve Days of Christmas and The King ' s Men , as well as the more sedate selections Westminster Carol and Ding Dong, Merrily on High . After a four week ' s rest (including the two- week Christmas exam period!) and a short month ' s concentrated preparation, a ready and eager choir functioned as the operetta cast for Gilbert and Sullivan ' s Trial by Jury in a performance which was praised by the press as lively and talented . Although the Winnipeg Musical Festival fol¬ lowed almost immediately after the Easter holidays and consequently most choirs had little time to prepare for comoetition, Kelvin again received top marks and high praise for their excellent standard of musical pres°nta- tion: Class room choirs XI-24 and X-35-39 as well as the Senior and Junior Ensembles won their respective classes. This is a fine follow-through after last year ' s Senior Ensemble received, for what the adjudicator called almost perfect singing , the coveted All- Canadian trophy. All through the year, our musical programs were guided by the advice of Mrs. Brown and the Music Council. It was they who arranged the Armistice and Carol services; it was they who lent a helping hand in perfecting the broadcast and Variety night programs; it was they who were responsible for the fine work of the Festival and Graduation choirs. Kelvin ' s gratitude can be perhaps be expressed in no better way than by misquoting Winston Churchill: Never did so few mean so much to so many. Now that we turn another golden page of Kelvin ' s musical diary, we KNOW that it is well filled with +he merits and contributions of our citizens of Tomorrow.

Enthusiastic audiences greet¬ ed this excellent satire on the British Judicial System. After months of noon practices, eve¬ ning rehearsals and disappointing discourage¬ ments the cast climaxed its hard work with four outstanding performances. Everyone con¬ nected with the opera, including the make-up girls, messenger girls, stage production man¬ ager, prop boys, pianists, wardrobe manager and the sales managers did a splendid job. Congratulations should be extended not only to our whimsical Judge, domineering Usher, two lovely Angelinas, entertaining Foreman, sentimental Council and handsome Defendant Jury and coy Bridesmaids who enlivened Trial By Jury and made it a sparkling success. The Oper ' s co-directors, Mrs. Brown, Miss Leggat and Miss Thomson, should be complimented on the tireless efforts which they put forth while shaping a seemingly hopeless mass of humanity into a well rehearsed opera cast. I firmly believe that everyone in Trial By Jury thoroughly enjoyed his or her chance of being behind the scenes of an opera per¬ formance and was extremely sorry when the final curtain fell, terminating Kelvin ' s 1956 opera production.

This was a light, farcical one act comedy with a trick ending concerning the search for the mys¬ terious Rajah ' s Ruby by the villain and his henchman. Also involved in the play were John and Mary , two innocent bystanders inadvertently in¬ volved in an exciting drama. Besides these, the cast included the inevitable hero and heroine, and the man in the bowler hat, whose all-important last line revealed that the whole play was just the rehearsal for another play! All performances came off ex¬ cellently, with the audience thoroughly enjoying themselves. The result was a pleasing production, with both casts acquitting themselves well.

This year Kelvin had a Variety Night, and, as part of the entertainment, there was an exhibition of tumbling. The tumblers practised long and hard to prepare their routine for the show. Twice a week, or more, one might have found these kids practising, and perfecting their stunts in the second floor hall. What was their performance like? It was a fine, pre- cisioned piece of work, which I am sure was enjoyed by all spectators. But for Mr. McIntyre the tumbling might not have been a success. He guided, and trained the tumblers, and planned the entire routine. A big job well done! Top: W. Goodall, J. Morton, D. Devenney; Bottom: D. McEwen, R. Ross, R. Ziedman, D. Kirk. VARIETY NIGHT DANCING AND TUMBLING This year, the Kelvin Variety Concert offered a selec¬ tion of dancing by a group of girls under Miss Suttie ' s watchful eye and training hand. Three numbers were produced, each of which pleased the audience. To open the program, a chorus line of 12 smiling girls danced in the true chorine fashion and received rave newspaper reviews. Next came three Cossack dancers, each of who did a difficult and very popular demonstra¬ tion of Russian dancing. Following these came six beautiful ballet dancers who graced the Playhouse Theatre with their perfection and sereneness. They were provided with music, in part by the school orchestra, conducted by Mr. McGlennan.

These familiar strains were heard many a time throughout the year by our hard-working cheerleaders. These eight vivacious girls clad, in their cherry and white outfits, were out to cheer our boys on both the rugby field and basketball court. Much credit should be given to these girls for they practised hard and their tireless support gave the teams the lift they needed. We hope next year ' s squad will help keep up the good work.

SPORTS COUNCIL ASSISTS IN ATHLETICS AND BOWLERS AROUSE KELVIN INTEREST INTER-CLASS BOWLING This year at Kelvin the girls 7 bowling was divided into two sections. A Friday league and a Tuesday league were formed. Room 28 showed their supremacy in the Tuesday league. Runners-up were Room 24. In the Friday league Room 24 triumphed with Room 15 being runners-up. Congratulations girls! PROVINCIAL BOWLING The girls on the Provincial Bowling team didn ' t do as well this year as they have others. Two teams of five bowlers and two spares were picked from the high bowlers in the inter-room league throughout the year.

As Kelvin Marches Down the Field The high school football season necessitated a good deal of preparation in the way of teams and cheer leaders. Kelvin was no exception. Early in August, the football team began to practice under the critical eyes of Harry Daniels and Ken McIntyre. Kelvin sported a very light, fast and agile line, while the back- field was rated as one of the best. The team, in the coaches ' eyes, was pretty fair, and who was to doubt them? Unhappily, Lady Luck was not on Kelvin ' s side this year. The Clippers played each game with the sportsmanship for which they are famous, but they failed to come up with a win. Great honours are justly due to Dave Cross, Dennis McDonald, Dick Stieler, and Garth Bell. These boys carried the load for Kelvin. Additional credit is to be given to Dave Cross, our school president, who was a unanimous choice for All-Star Squad. McDonald and Cross were two names that made opposing linemen shudder. This was the first season of organized foot¬ ball for most of the boys. With this experience we should have a strong team next year. Kelvin ' s coaches, Ken McIntyre and Harry Daniels, did a magnificent job in training the boys. Many long hours of patient training, watching . . . and waiting went into Kelvin ' s team. It was a good season of football, even if Kelvin didn ' t win. The attitude towards sportsmanship shown by the players was vic¬ tory enough. Senior Basketball Team Coached by Mr. Kerr, and captained by Beverly Never Miss Keely, the Senior Basket¬ ball Team had a fine season. Although they did not win the city championship this year they went through the season losing only one game to Tec- Voc. In the play-offs, the Seniors, with such sharp¬ shooters as Betty Kelsall and Lorna Young, managed to squeeze past Tec-Voc in a home and home series. How¬ ever, in the final game, Tec- Voc gave a fine show of their strength by defeating our hard¬ working team by the score of 37-24. junior Basketball Team Coached by Mr. Kerr and led by captain Joan Bjerring and sparked by high scorers Eleanor Thompson and Jocelyn McDonald the juniors started the season off right by breez¬ ing past Churchill 37-19. Kel¬ vin gained a close 29-19 vic¬ tory as the edged past St. John ' s. They then lengthened their unbeaten streak by over¬ shadowing Tec-Voc and Gor¬ don Bell with scores of 31-12 and 33-9. The score of 28-19 proved that their next oppon¬ ent Daniel Mac was harder to subdue. By virtue of a 35-16 victory over Newton, our jun¬ iors were left in undisputed first place. Congratulations girls, and keep up the good work next year! CO-EDS CONTINUE 34 Senior Volleyball Team The Seniors had a fairly suc¬ cessful season, losing only three close games to Isaac Newton 34-33, Gordon Bell 43-41, and Tec-Voc 51-31. Even though competition was stiff this year, the girls played their best under Miss Suttie, coach, and Bev. Keely, captain. Although the team didn ' t gain entrance to the final, they were aided by such stars as: Betty Kelsall, Joan Panting, Bev. Keely, Allison Holman, Barbara Virtue, and Charon Lang. The girls are to be con¬ gratulated on the fine team work and spirit they displayed through their season of many close games. COURT CONQUEST! Junior Volleyball Team The Juniors under the fine coaching of Miss Suttie and captain Jackie Forrest, went through their entire schedule dropping only one game to Tec-Voc. The team, sparked by such valuable players as Tina Parlin, Eleanor Thompson, and Jackie Forrest, are to be cred¬ ited for their fine playing, and team spirit. In the final, the girls played an outstanding game exhibiting their skill by defeating Lord Selkirk. For the first time in a number of years the Juniors brought the City Championship back to Kelvin. Congratulations girls! SENIOR BOYS ' BASKETBALL Dennis McDonald: Den was a big help under both boards from his guard pos¬ ition. He works hard and is an excellent team player. Bill Kelsall: Kelly was all-star forward this year and co¬ captain of the sen¬ iors. He is an ex¬ cellent rebounder and high scorer. Al Frado: Al played pivot behind Boris Bashinsky and ac¬ quitted himself well. He is a fine ball- handler and good team man. Don Douglas: Don played steady ball all season at for¬ ward. He was a hard worker and a big help to the team. Boris Bashinsky: Boris was named to the second all-star team at centre. He is an excellent re¬ bounder and good ballhandler. Dave Mills: Dave didn ' t see too much action but he has a good one-hand shot and is a hard worker. Cliff Pennington: Penner was an all - star guard and co-captain this year. He is a brilliant ball handler and a high scorer. Fred Smith: Fred played steady ball all season at for¬ ward. His shooting and team play were a big help to the team. Dick Steiler: Dick played guard and was a standout all season. His long set shots added a lot to the teams offence. Gordon Wicks: Al¬ though he didn ' t play often, Gord made the most of h is chances. He works hard and is a steady plaver. Mr. McIntyre: Mr. McIntyre, who is our phys. ed. teacher, was the able coach of the Senior team. Throughout the year he in¬ structed the boys in all the tricks of the game, and planned the major strategy of the team. The senior basketball team, coached by Mr. McIntyre, had one of their best seasons in recent years. Paced by all stars Bill Kelsall and Cliff Pennington, the team wen eleven and lost four. At the end of the reqular season ' s play the team finished in second place behind Isaac Newton. In the semi-finals Kelvin met the St. John ' s quintet in a two game total point series. The seniors won both games and then advanced to the finals against the powerful Isaac Newton team. Isaac Newton, paced by Alex Keenan, had too much power for Kelvin, however, and Kelvin was defeated in two straight games. The team redeemed them¬ selves, however, by their show of hustle and fine sportsmanship throughout the season. 36 JUNIOR BOYS ' BASKETBALL £ P Danny Allen: Dan¬ ny worked hard at forward and was a big help to the team. He is a fine re¬ bounder and high scorer. I Don Avery: Don played regularly at forward and is a hard worker. His fine corner shot added much to the teams offence. o Terry Braunstein: Terry played a first string guard and was a hard worker and a good b a 11 - handler. His playing showed good poten¬ tial. if Hugh Carruthers: Bugs acquitted himself nobly at his guard position. A good ballhandler, he works hard and has good potential. Jim Fenwick: Jimmy worked out of a guard position and was the junior top playmaker. He was a fine ballhandler and high scorer. Mike Henderson: Mike was captain and centre of this year ' s juniors. He is an excellent re¬ bounder and a high scorer. Alex Porlin: Alex played centre be¬ hind Mike Hender¬ son and acquitted himself well. He is a good rebounder who works very well.

He has a good one hand shot. Bill McIntosh: Bill played a lot of for¬ ward for the juniors and acquitted him¬ self well. He has an excellent one hand jump shot. Jerry Lyons: Jerry played quite a lot at forward this year and was a good team player and ballhandler. Mr. Butterworth: Mr. Butterworth, a his¬ tory teacher normally, coached the junior learn this year as a sideline. He trained the boys and planned the team tactics. In previous years he was the senior coach. The Kelvin juniors, under Mr. Butterworth, enjoyed a surprisingly good season for a com¬ paratively young and inexperienced team. Led by big Mike Henderson, captain and pivot man, the team won eight and lost four over the regular season. At the end of the season they wound up in third place behind Isaac Newton and Gordon Bell. Their third place finish was largely due to an upset victory over highly favoured Tec-Voc. In the semi-finals they played Isaac Newton, the second place finish¬ ers, in a total point series. Newton, however, had too much power for the less experienced Kelvin team. Newton won both games in the series and later went on to win the champion¬ ship. Nice going, Juniors! 37 Junior Soccer The junior soccer team experienced a dismal season in 1955, failing to win a game despite their fine hustling spirit. They were overcome three times during the season by one-goal margins, losing to Gordon Bell by a close 1-0 score and faring similarly against St. John ' s. After holding an early lead, they bowed to Daniel McIntyre by a 2-1 count in the late stages. In their last game, they succumbed to a strong Churchill High squad, 3-1. Back Row—Bricn Longley, Bruce Longley, Hugh Gordon (cap¬ tain), Marshall Piekoff, Roy Cameron, Mr. Steinman (coach).

KELVINITES EXCEL IN SPORTS Inter-room basketball was run off again this year under the direction of Mr. Guest of Room 35. The school was divided into three sections —A, B and C, according to the ability of each room. The best rooms were put into groups A and B while the others made up group C. The schedule was run off between the months Senior and |unior of December and March, and the winners of groups A and B then played off for the school championship. The final game was played on March 8, between room 32, group A champs, and Room 41, the winners of group B. In a close, hard fought game, the team from Room 32 emerged the victors and school champions. Interclass Basketball 38 Curling Skyrockets in Popularity The annual Inter-High School Bonspiel to decide Manitoba ' s High School Curling Cham¬ pion got under way on Monday, the 26th of December. The calibre of play was improved by a fine entry of Kelvin curlers. They totalled seven teams, and were skipped by Dawson, Storey, Parker, Macpherson, Braunstein, Elliott and Popowich. Though none of the teams reached the finals, there was keen competition throughout the ' spiel. The enjoyment of the bonspiel was greatly augmented by a variety concert on the second night at the Winnipeg Auditorium. The Kelvin Curling League of 1955-56 pro¬ vided keen competition for the ten rinks which took part. The league was ably supervised by Mr. Quarnstrom. Terry Braunstein ' s foursome started off with a string of wins which carried them through to the eighth round, when they dropped a game to Tom Storey. This tied Braunstein with Popowich, who had been trail¬ ing him with a single loss, and promised an interesting final between the two. Terry emerged from the hard-fought game victorious. Blades and Brooms In all, eight of Kelvin ' s speedsters entered the High School speed skating competition at the Winnipeg Arena. The A team won their heat of the Senior High Relays, but failed to place in the finals. Cliff Pennington won his heat in the Seniors, but a ripped skate pre¬ vented him from placing in the finals. Back—Barry Head, Brian McFadyen, Don Douglas, Mr. Shewchuk. Front—Jack McPhail, Richard Rudd, Dennis McDonald. Prominent at Kelvin Although Kelvin skaters under the fine coaching of Mr. Le Neveu did not win the Senior High Champions they worked hard and displayed wonderful teamwork. Entered in the stiff Senior High Division, were two relay teams. A team placed. Much credit is due to Beverly Vance as she brought to Kelvin girls their one and only first by winning the Junior High Unlimited.

Kelvin Speedskaters Earn Laurels 39 Hockey, Skiing Make Kelvin Debut After many years absence, inter - room hockey was again included in Kelvin ' s winter activities. Games were played at The Sir John Franklin Community Club rink. The winners of the two groups, Room 31 in group A and Room 32 in group B, played a sudden death final. Rocm 32 won 6-1. Through the efforts of Dr. McCullough, ap¬ proximately 35 Kelvinites, experts and begin¬ ners, skied at Lockport on Sunday afternoons. Although one had to supply his own skis, bus transportation was provided. All agreed that after an absence of five years from the Kelvin sport scene, skiing was a welcome returnee. Winter Sports Popular at Kelvin Room 28 came out on top of the Inter-Room Volleyball League after downing Rocm 33 the grade 10 champs. Room 33 had previously defeated the grade 9 winners, Room 13. Room 28 went through their entire schedule un¬ defeated. Both team work and fine sports¬ manship were shown throughout all the games. Competition was keen and close. The girls deserve much credit for making this schedule such a success. Room 28 once again emerged victorious in the Inter-Room Basketball League. Competi¬ tion was keen and close. Room 33 managed to win the grade 10 division. In the finals, they lost at the hands of the 11-12 winners, Room 28 who managed to finish the series undefeat¬ ed.

At the end of the sea¬ son a tournament was held to determine the winner of the Val Brown Trophy. Lynne Cart¬ wright opposed Jane O ' Donnell in the finals and after two thrilling bitterly contested strug¬ gles Lynne came out on top with the score of 11-1 and 1 1-0. Congratulations Lynne! Throughout the year, the tournament fea¬ tured some very good badminton playing, and all the girls greatly enjoyed their games. Left to Right —R. Ross, D. McEwen, R. Ziedman, W. Goodall, D. Kirk.

As he pressed the down button, he thought of the painful scene that had just taken place in the room he had just left. She wouldn ' t even look at me, he thought. Mark remembered he had tried to mutter a weak I ' m sorry to his sister in the hospital bed. He remem¬ bered also, very painfully, how his parents had turned away from him towards his sister, without a word, a look, or a sign of forgiveness; with only contempt and grief in their eyes. Ever since Mark could remember, it seemed that his parents always turned from him to Liz. When Liz was born, she had received only the normal amount of atten¬ tion given to a baby girl, but to Mark, who had been spoiled terribly during his three short years, it seemed that his parents were neglecting him completely. Thus, Liz became, in Mark ' s mind, a barrier between him and his parents. It was because of this that Mark had always tried to make life miserable for his younger sister. He remembered the childish delight he experienced when Liz, though three years old, was unable to utter a word. His parents, fearing that Liz might be mentally retarded ,took her to the doctor. It ' s her vocal cords, Mrs. Clayton, the doctor had said, she ' ll speak eventually, but with difficulty until her middle-teens. Until then she will need all your under¬ standing and affection. Therefore, Mr. and Mrs. Clayton lavished more and more attention and love on Liz, and less and less on Mark. Soon it became an obsession with him to hurt and harm his sister in any way he could. When he reached his teens, his vengeful feelings in this matter reached an even higher pitch. He often had to stay home because of Liz ' s inability to care for her¬ self. It was Liz this and Liz that, as long as he could remember. A little of the old resentment returned to Mark as he stood there before the elevator door, but a look down the hall at the room he had just left replaced the resentment with heartsickness and pity. There had been no pity in his heart, however, each time he teased Liz about her affliction. Each time Liz opened her mouth, but was unable to speak, he had found great delight in saying: What ' s the matter, Sis? Cat got your tongue? Once when Mark was giving a party, Liz, wishing to talk to him, came to the door and beckoned to him. Purposely and sadistically he pulled the timid girl into the middle of the room and introduced her to his friends. H-H-Hello everybody, she had stammered nervously. What did you want, Liz? he asked. l-ln private Mark, please. It ' s okay. You can talk here. No! Look, you wanted to say something, so say it here, or forget it. I-I-I- What ' s the matter, Sis? Cat got your tongue? he said, bursting into laughter. Liz looked at him, horrified. She tried to speak. Her mouth was open, but no sound came out. The sight of his sister in this often repeated predicament caused Mark to laugh all the more. His friends, following his example, also began to laugh, and now the engulfing sound of laughter surrounded the confused girl. What ' s the matter, Sis? Cat- But she heard no more as she ran from the room in tears. However, despite Mark ' s continual harrying, Liz did improve. Soon she was able to speak without difficulty nearly all the time, except when she got over excited, which, despite Mark ' s efforts, did not often occur. Frequently, Liz had pleaded with him to cease this sadistic practice, but he continually made efforts to embarrass her. His parents also pleaded with him, com¬ manded him, punished him, but the more they tried to dissuade him, the more miserable he made life for his sister. It was no longer a matter of a momentary joke at Liz ' s expense. It was no longer a matter of getting back at Liz for stealing his parents affection. It was now a 44 matter of defying his family, or if need be, the whole world. As he absently pressed the button for the elevator again, he wondered why he had always acted in that way towards his sister. Mark was abruptly brought out of his reverie when a man bumped him in passing. He looked down the hall to his sister ' s room, took a step in that direction, and then, reconsidering, again faced the elevator. As he waited, he vividly recalled what had taken place the previous day. He would never forget it. Nor would he ever forget the events leading up to that fate¬ ful day. Liz had come home one day and rushed to tell her mother of the most wonderful, most handsome boy in school. All the girls are c-crazy about him, she explained excitedly. What ' s his name, Mark inquired, maybe I know him? B-Bob Morgan. Oh, him. We ' ve been good friends since he came to our school. Then, you can introduce us. Will you, p-please Mark? For days he stood immovable, but finally — it was the day before — he acceded to her pleadings, pushing her away when she tried to hug him in gratitude. Don ' t get excited and start stammering, and spoil everything, he warned. I won ' t, if you don t make me, she said. He remembered how he had repeatedly warned her that day, and how, despite herself, Liz became more and more excited. Everything was going just as Mark had planned. After school, the time which he had arranged for her to meet Bob, Mark noticed how nervous Liz had become. Confident that he could again embarrass her, he ap¬ proached Bob, with Liz excitedly walking at his elbow. Liz, this is Bob. Bob, my sister Liz. H-H-How do y-you do? she stammered. Hi, returned Bob. Mark told me all about you. He did? she asked. All about me, about my . . . She stopped suddenly, and glanced at her brother questioningly. Mark returned her look and nodded his head slightly. M-Mark, you didn ' t t-tell him . . . she blurted out. Don ' t get excited, he warned sarcastically. Say, what is this? Bob cut in. Tell him, Sis. Liz looked at Mark, mortified, opened her mouth to speak, but found that she could not. What ' s the matter, Sis? Cat got your tongue? Liz looked at Mark and then Bob, embarrassed, horri¬ fied, ashamed, and bursting into tears, she turned and ran from the boys. Down the corridor to the stairs she fled. She bolted down the stairs. In her haste her foot missed a step and she fell, screaming, until she lay motionless at the bottom. And now, in the room that Mark had just left, she lay in bed with a broken back, crippled for life. Going down? What? Going down, sir? asked the elevator boy. Yes, Mark answered, I ' m going down. GREED By CAROLE PIKE Doctor James Manville slept restlessly the night of May 15, 1946. The wind cut the very walls of the tent in which he and his partner, Harold Moore were crowded. The high altitude of twenty-four thousand feet apparently didn ' t bother the latter, a fierce, desperate and selfish looking man. Selfishness was Moore ' s only fault, and because he was an excellent climber, Manville had chosen him as a partner to attempt the ascent of the highest mountain in the world. This monstrous flaw on the surface of the earth stood twenty-five thousand feet above sea level in the middle of Africa, casting a threatening shadow for miles around. The natives called it Zandu meaning ' ’in the ciouds. The expedition had started about two months before, and now one thousand feet separated these two men from success. Of course, more than two had started the climb. A crew of about twenty-five men and twenty natives to carry the equipment had started, but it was only possible for two to make the final ascent. So now with their comrades below and their destination above, they were matched against the elements in a struggle to reach the top. Moore, the hardier of the two, showed no ill-effects of the high altitude except for a slightly frost-bitten toe. Manville envied him for this, because his sleep had been disturbed more than just tonight. In fact, while climbing he had to stop every five or ten minutes to rest. During these breaks Moore said very little, mostly grumbling as to Manville ' s weakness. Manville snapped himself out of this day dreaming just as his climbing comrade stretched and yawned in answer to the faint traces of dawn that penetrated the darkness of a night on the mountain. Harold Moore ' s first words had his usual air of forcefulness and am¬ bition. We ' re going to make the top today, even if I have to drag you, Jim. Another thousand feet ought to do it. Manville merely nodded in approval. It had become necessary for him to save his breath and talking certainly didn ' t help. For breakfast they had hot chocolate, bacon, and generous servings of honey for energy. The most tedious task of mountain climbing is equip¬ ment, rope and food. Heavy boots must be worn along with oxygen equipment. The whole expedition had been unlucky. Ice clogged in the tubes of the oxygen appar¬ atus and the rope was poor variety. Only last week a native had fallen into a huge crevice because of a faulty rope breaking. Hurry up, Jim, Moore said to his slower companion who was doggedly trying to fasten a boot with a broken zipper. At last the task was completed and the men set out for the peak. It was a perfect day for climbing. The sky was clear, making an ideal background for the summit above them. The greatest obstacle perhaps was the very very top. It consisted of a rock formation somewhat like a mushroom in shape. The climber could succeed only in reaching a certain point about seventy-five feet from the top, and then he would have to struggle over the hump by means of a rope. After they had climbed for six hours, they took a rest. Only about three hundred feet remained, when a bad windstorm came up, drowning their voices. After an hour they set out tor the top. Moore ' s thoughts were those of being the first man ever to set foot on the peak, 45 also the only man — but that was impossible if this partner made the top — if his partner made the top. But now the wind was waxing in all its ferocity, and the top was barely visible. The pace was painfully slow but finally about three hours later they reached all but its extreme top. Manville suggested they throw a rope over an outcrop at the top and climb up. Moore went over first. It was very difficult but his fierce desire supplemented his failing strength and he made it. One cannot easily imagine the joy in Harold Moore ' s heart as he stood on the peak of Zandu, the highest point on the earth. He felt like laughing and crying at the same time. He was the first man — but wait, not the only man to conquer this invisible peak. His partner was half way up the rope, gamely struggling to share his comrade ' s success. Moore became crazed with greed. No one ' s going to share this with me, he yelled almost hysterically. In one motion he seized an axe and severed the rope which held Manville. There was a sharp cry and then only the wind sounded. He had done it. He went to put the axe back in its sheath, but he saw that his own axe was still there. Then he examined the one in his hand. It was rusty and apparently quite old. How did it get up here? he wondered. Then all became clear. Someone else had been on this peak •— he wasn ' t the first mortal to reach the top after all. He glanced about in utter despair. How was he able to get down? The oldest story in mountain climbing is that one man cannot climb or descend a mountain by himself. Night gradually came. The wind howled, and he was alone. THE MISTS OF THE MATTERHORN By MARTIN LEVITT Dawn. The tiny Swiss mountain village of Como, hidden in the shadows of the Matterhorn, covered by a dense fog, awoke to a solar rain of golden light. Sudden¬ ly, the quaint little church poked its inquisitive steeple through the enshrouding mist, and soon the valley floor had become a vast array of multi-colored roofs, clothed in a light, sparkling film of crisp frost. The peaceful villagers, recalled to life ' s asperities by this burst of aureous glory, were preparing for the zenith of their social week, the Sunday church gather¬ ing. On this occasion, the people congregated in their picturesque, yet hallowed place of worship, discussed the events of the preceding seven days in a congenial atmosphere, and received the simple comforts of spiritual guidance. In the home of Henry Brooker, the village apothecary, Mr. Brooker and his twin sons, Charles and Anthony, were seated at their Sunday breakfast. Henry had never fully recovered from the shock of his wife ' s untimely death at the birth of their sons, but the fine characters and manly grace of the boys had reimbursed the old man to some extent, and he was now more or less resigned to his tragic loss. Charles and Anthony, now nineteen, were excellent specimens of Swiss hardihood. They excelled in every undertaking and had in time become the natural leaders of their age group in the tiny community. The young men were the pride and joy of Mr. Brooker ' s old age, end like most fathers he strove to fulfil their every desire. Only one fact marred the happiness and serenity of this picture of contentment. At the mention of a friend ' s name, a shadow passed over each face. This friend, one of the mountain folk, Jan Rikter, had recently and mysteriously disappeared into the swirling haze of the mountain while he was conducting a survey of snow conditions regarding the likelihood of spring avalanches. It was as if the jocund old man had been swallowed up by some malicious monster who even now lurked in the shadows, scornfully watching the villagers and awaiting new victims. As soon as the church service had been completed, the pastor proposed that a search party be organized and dispatched without further delay. Within the hour, eight men, including Charles and Anthony, and the village pastor himself cast parting glances at the village as they prepared to enter that lonely and foreboding whiteness on their hazardous quest. In spite of the over¬ powering qualms they held regarding the mystery of the unexplainable disappearance, the men turned their backs on the security of their homes, determining to do their best for their old friend. As they climbed higher the oppressive mystery of the swirling mists surrounded the men with a gripping terror of the unknown before them. Nevertheless, with un¬ daunted determination in their hearts, the courageous little band pressed onward, following, with difficulty, Rikter ' s footprints, which had been partially obliterated by raging bursts of wind. For some reason which they were at a loss to explain, the men sensed the existence of some evil presence surveying their every move, and carefully awaiting the opportunity to strike. This pre¬ sentiment of danger held the little group in a grip of steel as they silently scoured the snowy whiteness with searching, terror-filled eyes. Then, in the grotesque shadows cast by a sun filtered through a half-world of cloud and mist, the trail became more distinct, bringing hope that their goal was not far distant. Suddenly the leader stopped. The others crowd¬ ed around him, gazing downward, aghast at the un¬ naturalness of the scene which greeted their eyes. It was a man ' s now staggering trail which ended abruptly as though trailing off into some alien dimension. They stood transfixed . . . The setting sun saw a worried village straining anx¬ iously to perceive some sign of life on the frosty heights below the swirling mists of the majestic mountain. As darkness closed in, and the palling mists settled, all was once more peaceful and serene. Dawn. The first rays of a waking sun brought with them the frenzied shouts of the lookouts posted at the foot of the mountain. With them they bore a dis¬ hevelled, screaming figure whose aged features were twisted in a contortion of fear and pain so intense, as permanently to alter the visage of the once-handsome young Anthony Brooker. Since that day in the icy mists, the unsolved mystery of the Matterhorn has remained locked in the shattered mind of a ranting madman. 46 ESSAYS WINNERS: 1.

THE MAGIC OF THE HARBOUR By WAYNE ELLIOTT The Vancouver waterfront, when deserted by the bustle and traffic of day, takes on a mysterious and peaceful beauty. At night, especially when the damp, intense mist rolls in from Puget Sound, the shore is changed into a magical land, a marvellous field for the imagination. The fog seems to press inwards like a cool, musty shroud cutting out the real world of men, and replacing it with a new world of hazy sights, muted sounds, and strange odors. The thick fog gives everything an ethereal quality. Sounds, especially, lend a strange enchantment to the night. The water, rhythmically lapping at the dock ' s piling and ships in mooring, seems far away in the darkness. Far out, lost in the mists, a lonely buoy, gently rocking back and forth on the swells, winks its red eye, and clangs out its hollow warning of disaster to the ships that ply the murky waters of the bay. Out in the inlet, the deep, mournful foghorns of incoming and outgoing vessels call to one another like lost souls, as they feel their way through the mist. The close, jostling sounds of the dories and fishing smacks clunking against the wooden docks piling, and the friendly creaking of the hawsers and mooring lines contrast with the silent solem¬ nity of those great ships passing out to sea. From back in the city sounds drift out to the docks. The tinny tinkling of a piano in some waterfront cafe, and an occasional hoarse burst of laughter and shouting, a bark¬ ing dog, and the faint honking of a distant car are re¬ minders of the real world which has disappeared into the night. A sudden, silent rush of water and the deep, harsh cry of a nearby foghorn rend the fog, as a huge ocean liner with her retinue of tugs glides b y in the night, like a fairy queen and her court. She is a ghostly sight as she slips through the darkness, tier upon tier of brilliant portholes sending their hazy light out into the night, her pilot lights and bridge lights blinking a warning to other craft, looking like a great cloud of falling stars. With a final clang of her ship ' s bells, the deep, rhythmical throbbing of her great engines dies away, as she passes from sight. Then, on a nearby dock, a gruff, snorting diesel rattles past, its headlight cutting a swath in the darkness and its motors whirring and whining, as it shunts a long black string of empty, yawning freight cars back to the yards. Far off, to landward, the fairy-like lights of the vast Lion ' s Gate Bridge stretch their sparkling web across the black sky, tying together the glimmering neon city that flanks the channel. The gaunt frame of a sluggish old dredge hovers above the black water, with its spit- lights swinging about, looking like some weird monster rising from the sea. Much nearer, alongside the docks, there radiates the warm, cozy glow of smoky lanterns swinging from the spars and hatchways of the fishing boats tied up at the wharf. Smells, too, tantalize the nostrils. They drift along with the fog, a mingling of many aromas but all having in common a briny, sea flavor. The strong pungent odor of freshly tarred piles, the clean, piney aroma of fresh cut lumber and damp sawdust, and the rancid smell of diesel oil, mixed together with the thick choking smoke and coal dust. There is the hempen smell of new rope and the faint, tantalizing aroma of cooking food, drifting out of some nearby galley, but most prominent, the cool, salty freshness of the sea, which seems to typify the freedom, power, and loneliness of the vast ocean, dominates the lesser waterfront odors, and accen¬ tuates the nearness of the sea. These are the magic of the harbour, the misty lights, the obscure sounds, and the taunting odors, all forming a weird, indefinite pattern of peace and serenity. With the dawn, this magic will disappear, as the warm sun drives out the fog and darkness, but for a few short hours during the night, the ugly waterfront has become a scene of haunting beauty. 47 A MID-SUMMER NIGHT ' S SCREAM By LEONARD MORLOCK Throughout the ages, man has striven against ad¬ verse conditions, such as dripping faucets, the neigh¬ bour ' s cat, or the blaring of a radio, to achieve that state of intoxicating bliss known simply as sleep. Shake¬ speare, himself, described it as sleep that knits up the ravell ' d sieave or care. - .eep, wmcn som; j n • with such difficulty and which comes so easily to high school students, especially during morning classes, is one of Nature ' s strangest and most puzzling phenomena. Man has tried many devices and inventions to produce this boon of tired minds. Among these are hypnotism, sleep-producing records, and even automatic sheep- counters. But still the battle rages. At this point, I pause to quote to you a time honoured poem on sleep written by a promising young poet — namely me! Here it is: Be there a man with soul so dead, Who never to himself has said: ' This is my own, my private bed. On which I rest my weary head, To sleep, as on a fluffy cloud. Untroubled by my snores, so loud ' ! Now that I have expressed my sentiments, I shall delve again into the mysteries of my subject, and illustrate my views with a little tale. The story you are about to read is true. Only the names have been changed to prevent embarrassment. The time is eleven-thirty, the place is a secluded bed¬ room. It was pitch dark. I was in a cold throbbing sweat. My head felt as if it was in the grip of a giant vise, that was slowly tightening. Something was wrong. Then it came to me, like a spectre rising out of a clammy grave ... I was awake! Frantically I tossed and turned, rearranged my covers and buried my head in the pillows but I was still as wide awake as ever. Finally I clambered our of bed and reeled towards the kitchen like a drunk on the deck of a storm-tossed ship. Perhaps if I had a glass of milk, I thought. Four glasses of milk later, I stared at the wall and said to myself, George, m ' boy, we are in for a long night. But I was resolved to try again, and doggedly I started back to my room. When three-thirty arrived, I was in bed, still awake. I decided to resort to mat supoosediy inrailioie _uie tor insomnia, counting sheep. And so I continued counting sheep through the night. Time passed and so did a procession of those fleecy harbingers of sleep. Finally, after the lapse of three hours and about two million sheep, I was drifting on a misty cloud to the Land of Nod. Freed from the cares of the world of reality, my mind winged far to explore every crag and cranny of the giant cave called imagination. Suddenly an inferno of noise flazed through my weary brain, and as I reached for the clattering a.arm clock I wondered, Why go to sleep at all, just to wake like this! And so the battle continues, and the ranks of the Insomnia Anonymous grow larger with each pass.ng day. Oh well, who knows? Perhaos, some dav there will be a perfect solution to this problem of mankind, and man shall repose in total bliss. MY VISIT TO QUEBEC By NANCY MEDOVY Frere Jaques, Frere Jaques! This is the pitiful song sung by the little five and six year old beggars of Lower Quebec. As you walk through the streets of Lower Quebec, little children trail you singing this song until even the hardest of hearts are moved, and a coin or two is added to the meagre collection in the child ' s pocket. However, even if this rather pitiful introduction to Quebec seems unpromising, you must not let it deter you from exploring this most interesting of Canadian cities. It has many things to recommend it: its age, its location, its unusual qualities, and its old world atmos¬ phere. Lower Quebec is t he older section of the city, and the name Lower means exactly what it says. You actually must go downwards considerably from Upper Quebec to reach Lower Quebec. In addition to two elevators which transport you several hundred feet downwards, there are two sets of steep spiral stairs, and three very steep and curvy roads. These roads are closed in the winter uecause the ice on such a steep surrace ma,ces ;n-m perilous. There are really two ways of looking at Lower Quebec. One pair of eyes would be enchanted by the beautiful old setting, while another pair would see only the dirt, the poverty, and the run-down buildings. For a minute I would like to make it possible for you to visualize Lower Quebec through the eyes of the first type of person. First, you enter Lower Quebec in a very romantic way, by wnat is called a Caieche, 01 an old-fashioned horse and buggy. Your driver is in his middle fifties, he speaks both French and English, and serves as your interpreter. His love of the Lower town shows in every possible way. He is very friendly and trustworthy and these qualities prove very comforting as you descend the steep road, which is highly treacher¬ ous for the horse. At the bottom you are enchanted by the quaint build.ngs, narrow streets, and old but fabu¬ lously beautiful churches. As you travel along the cobble-stoned streets, and pass by white and grey narrow houses three stories high, you can imagine the ladies and gentlemen of the Old World, under the French Regime, gracefully alighting from carriages and entering their quaint homes. You stop for a moment in front of the Basilica of Notre Dame, which was originally built in 1647, and rebuilt twice after being partially des¬ troyed by fire. You are astounded by its simple beauty, and feel that in spite of its age, it is the most beautifuj church in existence. From mere you visit the more modern shopping centre, and you find that their modern architecture is also quite different from ours. They have no windows in me riont, three iaige ones ar the top siaes, and then windows at the back. So much for Lower Quebec through a romantic pair of eyes, and now let us move on to the Lower town through the critical pair of eyes. You find the descent a wee bit unnerving because of the peril, and think that your visit could be more enjoyable without it. Entering the narrow streets, you are frankly amazed by the shabby houses, with their garbage cans in the front street, and washlines in plain view over, or in front of the houses. In the poorer districts, for street after street every house is three stories high, a greyish-white in colour, has broken windows, and has the door level with the narrow, weathered, cobblestone street. One street in particular is considered a hazard by your guide, and 48 as you approach it, he warns you to stay still in order to make it impossible for the children to jump into the buggy. You are also told that if you want to throw money, you should throw it behind you, and far away. You wonder at this, but as you enter the street you understand the precautions. There is barely room for the buggy to slide along the street without touching the houses on either side. These houses are the oldest, poor¬ est, shabbiest, dirtiest, and most weather-beaten in the Lower town. Then, as you go along, what had been a serene, quiet street a split second ago, is suddenly swarming with poorly dressed, dirty, thin, undernourished, pitiful children. They chase after you trying to catch on, meanwhile keeping their hands open for money. As you throw it, they all run and scramble for it in the dirt. When you reach the end of the street, your guide tells you that most of the families there have nine or ten children, a drunken failure for a father, and a mother who used to work hard, but by now has given up hope, and resigned herself to poverty. Most of the children ' s food comes from money that tourists throw to them. So they live, a dismal life, on a dismal street, always begging, and always on starvation ' s front doorstep. You find these scenes so fantastic that you ask your guide if you can get out of the caleche and walk through the streets for a bit. As you walk along, every few minutes a five or six-year old beggar comes running after you singing in a weak little voice and begging you for a penny or two. This is the more dismal and sad part of your visit to Lower Quebec. At this point your caleche once more approaches the sleep ascent, climbs the treacherous road, and deposits you in front of the Chateau Frontenac, which is built on a cliff and seems to dominate all of Lower town, signifying the superior strength of Upper Quebec. How¬ ever, even the beauty of the Chateau Frontenac cannot wipe out the memory of the scenes you have just wit¬ nessed, and those two words, Frere Jaques, which the little beggars sang as they chased you for money, bring back all the memories of your many-splendored visit to Lower Quebec. The memory is vivid, both of the poverty and of the splendor! MY CAREER AS A PIANO VIRTUOSO By DON WINKLER It was eight years ago — eight long years ago that the matter was first brought up in the family circle. My mother had talked to an acquaintance who knew a friend whose brother-in-law ' s daughter was taking lessons from a certain piano teacher. Having heard that the girl was making remarkable progress, mother had been gripped instantly by that primary motherly impulse, to transform her little genius into a prodigy. Therefore, at the tender age of eight, I found myself faced with the prospect of grinding out thirty minutes of five-finger scales daily. As my mother put it, I was extremely fortunate to have the opportunity of learning to appreciate the finer things in life, and I was to remember this every time I played another five-finger scale. Why, it would be practically no time at all before I would be able to toss off everything from Bach to Beethoven with absolutely no difficulty . . . Her plans did not work out too badly at first. After all, half an hour a day do es not amount to very much, and I was actually beginning to enjoy the piano, as my parents had assured me I would. Then, one evening, after my weekly lesson, my teacher slyly turned away and asked me, in a nonchalant tone of voice, whether I was doing my forty-five minutes of practice faithfully each day. Forty-five minutes! I was stunned. I was condemned to spend forty-five minutes each day pound¬ ing the keyboard while my companions were outdoors playing baseball. How frustrating! I felt as if I were caught in a trap. My parents of course, took this as a great step forward and eagerly anticipated the day when I would be able to turn out everything from Bach to Beethoven with no difficulty at all . . . Although I now began to realize that my baseball days were gone forever, I didn ' t accept the truth for several years. Meanwhile, my practice time had risen appreciably. I had graduated from five-finger to eight- finger scales and, in fact, I was well incorporated into the ranks of the poor fortunates who were learning about the finer things in life. Of course, it is different now. I have been playing the piano for nearly eight years, and instead of spend¬ ing forty-five minutes each day at the keyboard, I am stationed there for two hours. Also, I no longer struggle with just plain scales. Instead, I painfully churn out dominant seventh arpeggios, harmonic minor scales in contrary motion, and double thirds. Now, instead of missing baseball, I miss Sid Caesar or Jackie Gleason. Oh well, as my parents say, (with a slightly desperate look in their eyes now, I might add) it will be no time at all before I will be able to turn out everything from Bach to Beethoven with absolutely no difficulty — none whatsoever . . . THE RETREAT By BARBARA BAILEY I can remember the calendar very plainly; it hung on the front wall of our grade six classroom covering a large black streak. Every time we had arithmetic, I spent hours reflecting on the picture. It was just an ordinary scenic calendar similar to thousands of others put out by different firms for adver¬ tising purposes; but for me sitting in a boring classroom, it was a picture of my dream haven. A deep shadowy pool was depicted, with a little moss, and water life skimming over the top. Bordering the pool there were those heavy overhanging trees that are usually asso¬ ciated with the everglades. The colors were mainly that intense sparkling blue, and snatches of golden sunbeams added to the brightness of the scene. On the ground, there was a mossy mat of short thick forest grass. The whole picture was so calm and serene, that it served as a blissful retreat when the time stood still. I would sit imagining gangs of mischievous little boys skipping school, and stealing scantily clad down to this unguarded hideaway on a stifling summer day. They would probably erect a makeshift diving board, or even climb into the slender trees and swing back and forth a few times before splashing boisterously into the seem¬ ingly bottomless depth, to come up with bits of green clinging to their hair. There were a few cloud fluffs in the sky, which the truants would doubtless gaze at as they lay drying on the soft carpet. Many dreams filled my mind as I gazed at that picture. Looking at it, I was able to float from the classroom to a quiet, soothing retreat. But now in the bustling days of high school, if I dared indulge in any such reverie, I would be rudely startled back to reality with You down there — I asked you for the root of 8x 3 - 8 . 49 WHAT IS A TEENAGER? By BARBARA GRAY One hundred per cent of the nation ' s population be¬ tween the ages of thirteen and twenty are teenagers, members of that mysterious group of humanity hovering between childhood and adulthood. Teenagers come in assorted shapes and sizes. These vary from the six-foot male big operator who lies on the chesterfield more than the dog does and has a vocabulary of about thirty words, to the five-foot-two female blonde charmer who can wheedle anything out of Dad or the aforementioned six-footer. Their friends endow them with colorful aliases from time to time, and baffled parents of football-playing Reginald hear awed feminine voices on the telephone asking for Crazylegs or Bash. Who would guess that Pepper is in reality Elizabeth Anne, or that Jazzmo was christened Clarence? Such unique speci¬ mens are found everywhere: in phone booths, asleep in classes, in parked cars, raiding the refrigerator, at meet¬ ings of the Elvis Presley Fan Club, outside drug stores, inside drug stores, sprawled in front of television sets, and, on rare occasions — doing homework. Parents fear them, teachers shake their heads over them, and some other adults tolerate them! Home¬ work, parents, textbooks, and teachers are objects of disgust and frustration to gum-chelwing, fad-happy bopsters. However, male teenagers like: cars, comic books, carburetors, Dogwood sandwiches, school holidays, planes, science fiction, and motorcycles. Female teen¬ agers like: nail polish, party dresses, male teenagers, perfume, male teenagers, long telephone calls, and •— male teenagers. The boys would like to live in a car. The girls would like to live in a bathroom. The teenager is a companion, a critic, a tormentor, his parents ' pride and joy, and, above all, a teenager. No one else can cram so much into one zipper ring binder; four pencils (worn down to the last inch), two packages of bubble gum, three theatre stubs, two pic¬ tures of movie heroes, two half-used lipsticks, Kleenex, three combs, a compass, an eyelash curler, a compact, a blotter, a powder puff, a bottle of ink, book of phone numbers, ruler, manicure scissors, eraser, nail polish remover, and oh yes — three textbooks and seven notebooks. Teenagers are sophistication choking on their first cigarette; innocence with the reek of Mom ' s borrowed exotic perfume; shyness in pink jeans and an orange T-shirt; wisdom with six textbooks, cramming for to¬ morrow ' s exam; and dignity in mud pack and curlers for that special date. Certainly, nowhere else but in a home with a teenager, when the frustrated father comes home from a long, hard day at the office, tired and longing for the vacancy of his favorite chair and an hour of solitude with the news¬ paper, would he be greeted with a blast of jazz and these ten little words: Hey, Dad! Can I have an advance on my allowance? LEARNING TO DRIVE By IRIS SUTHERLAND The big day was the day after my sixteenth birthday. Finally, after many long pedestrian years I could get a license to drive the family car. Filled with visions of my pending driverhood, I strode confidently down to the License Bureau. Unfortunately I was served by an in¬ experienced clerk who surely didn ' t realize my impatience or recognize my automotive ability. She pushed my crumpled dollar back into my eager hand and cruelly informed me that first I must pass a general knowledge exam and an eye test. After writing the exam and tak ing the eye test, I was told to stick to my bicycle for a few more years. I was not discouraged, however. Six weeks later, I was back, burdened with general knowledge and thick eyeglasses, to try my luck again. My weeks of study paid off. When I left the building I had it — my beginner ' s license. However, I was forced, due to circumstances, to take the bus home. I soothed myself by confiding in the bus driver and the woman sitting next to me, that I would never travel on the bus again. Henceforth, I would commute by car! Once home, I casually asked for the car keys because, I said, I had to take a quick run over to the drugstore. This request was greeted by loud guffaws from my father and brother and a peal of laughter from my mother. Indignantly, I flapped my license in their faces and repeated my request for the keys. They explained gently that first I must learn to drive. Then the bright question arose. Who would teach me? Finally my brother took on the job of actually teaching me to drive the car. Shrieking nervously, my mother and father yelled sage advice from the back seat. The daily driving lesson soon became a hectic experience for everyone concerned. I would enter the car with grim determination, sit fiercely down behind the wheel, glare at my family and begin. The occupants of the back seat would stiffen, clutch the sides of the car for support and breathe deeply. My brother would begin to jump towards me in horror until he was almost sitting on my lap, his legs and feet would twist in between mine in his at¬ tempts to get at the brakes. We would invariably end up kicking one another. This was the daily driving lesson. After a few weeks of this, my instructors began to show nervous signs everytime I picked up the keys. My brother would begin to twitch, my mother to bite her fingernails and twist her hair into tiny knots. My father wou.d wake up in the night screaming, Stop, stop! The driving lessons were less frequent, appointments were remembered at the last minute, excuses were made. Such actions might have discouraged a more sensitive person, but I was determined to drive that car! I coaxed, pleaded, wheedled, and badgered. It was of no avail. They seemed determined that I would remain a pedestrian for the rest of my life. Not much later I came home late for supper one night. On my plate was a thin envelope. As I picked it up, I glanced at my family. Their expressions were angelic, full of radiant hope. Warily, I opened the envelope and a small paper fell out. It read, Good for twenty-five lessons at Joe Vine driving school ' 50 POETRY WINNERS: 1. “Time ' s Decay —Martin Levitt, Rm. 22. 2. On the Futility of War ' —Bob Barnes, Rm. 23. 3.

TIME ' S DECAY AM I A BUILDER By MARTIN LEVITT The Idol whose exploits have brought to all A sigh of awe, of wonder, tremors of Excitement to the stagnant throng above, His mighty body tanned, well-formed, and tall, Oft ' times beheld, admired within this wall, What of this man, this Hercules whereof I speak, intense and steadfast in his love Of valour, and disdain of fear withal? Senility, Destruction ' s solvent, hath The powerful elixir of his youth Diluted, and from him each laurel worn Divested; now, a victim of time ' s wrath, The warrior, impaled upon the tooth Of age, fades from our public eye — forlorn. By ELEANOR NORRIE I watched them tearing a building down, A gang of men in a busy town. I asked the foreman, Are .hese men skilled As the men you ' d hire if you had to build? He gave a laugh and said, No, indeed. Just common labour is all I need. I can easily wreck in a day or two What builders have taken a year to do. And I thought to myself as I went away, Which of these roles have I tried to play? Am I a builder who works with care Measuring life by the rule and square? Am I shaping my deeds to a well made plan. Or am I a wrecker, who walks the town Content with the labor of tearing down? ON THE FUTILITY OF WAR By BOB BARNES Like to the beasts of prey that know no law, The hate-crazed nations bathe the world in blood; Each man, forgetting dreams of brotherhood, Sets forth to slay a man he never saw; And soon the awful rumble of the guns, Sounds o ' er the earth with fury unrestrained. It tells its tales of loss, and naught regained. Each national cruelly slaughtering its sons. And when the conflict closes, as the day Must follow night, however dark and long; Do we then hear the victor ' s battle song Cheering the warriors on their homeward way? Ah, no! We hear a mother ' s anguished cry For every man whom we send forth to die. 51 MY BOAT AND I By MARGARET THOMPSON EVENING AT THE LAKE Slipping away from the mainland ' s tether. Suddenly we are off together, My boat and I beneath the sky, A sharp wind blowing and the cry Of wild geese down the windy way; A stinging lash of cold wet spray Cutting my face, my eyes, my hair; A wild exhilarating air, And the swirling water everywhere. My boat, an arrow whose bright speed Cuts the waves like a racing steed, Is like a caged bird now set free, By DIANE DAVIS f Or like a broncho under me. Riding along on the crest of a wave That looks like a dark foreboding cave. Then rushing on, while in its wake Is churning foam, and waves that break Like surf upon some rocky shore Its sound lost in the motor ' s roar. ! am a part, this thrilling hour, Of all earth ' s motion, light, and power. The lake calms, as shadows slide Through the wind-swept trees. Ripples whisper as they glide Urged by a kindly breeze. Coloured by the spit-fire ball And robed in an eerie light The sky gives out a brilliant glow Before the dark of night. ACHOO! By LINDA POSNER THE DUEL By ALEX DINER Flat on my back, Stuffy and ill. Aspirin and tea, Pill after pill. The wind blew o ' er the moor that e ' en, No light for miles around; The only thing that could be seen Was the moon ' s dull glow and ghostly sheen, As its rays passed over the ground. Now two men came across the moor: A gun in each one ' s hand; That one would die was certain sure, And by the other ' s hand. Their arms were raised — a short delay— And then the gun ' s dull roar; Alas, they both fell to the way Their souls at hell ' s dark door. Burning with fever, Restless and hot, Throbbing and aching Bad cold I ' ve caught. Boxes of Kleenex Go one by one, Pillars of magazines Boring — no fun. Radio blaring Hour after hour; Visits from doctor, Medicine sour! The sand did shift and slowly rise To the level of the mound; Witnessed by the moon ' s dull eyes As its rays passed o ' er the ground.
