make a detailed study of the school and its operation. He also expanded the hobbies and outdoors programme, abolished sea cadets and introduced art and music into the teaching curriculum. Over a three year period he substantially raised staff salaries to a much more respectable level. He instituted student exchanges with Appleby, Ashbury and Trinity College School and also the Centennial Scholarships which brought us a number of excellent boys. These are just some of his achievements, indicating a conscientious and forward looking educator. It is no surprise to any who know her that throughout these years his staunchest supporter was his wife Jocelyn. It is easy to forget how efficiently she looked after, and frequently made, the costumes for all our plays and musicals, often assisting with make-up and even props. She also ran the Art Club for one year when there was no one else to do it. But most of all, possibly her Friday evening Bridge Club will be remembered by those boys fortunate enough to enjoy her hospitality while learning the rudiments, as well as the finer ooints, of the game. We are glad to know therefore that Pat and Jocelyn will continue to live near the school and that although Pat will be away for part of each year in Hong Kong as the representative of the Canadian Independent Schools in the Far East, both he and Jocelyn will be able to maintain their close association with Shawnigan. We wish you success in your new venture Pat and au revior but not good-bye Mr. Chips . HUGH C. WILKINSON B.Com., M.B.A., M.Sc, P.Eng. Old Boy 1937-1940 Headmaster 1972 - After a long search which involved the screening of over 50 applicants, the Board of Governors was pleased to announce the appointment of Mr. Hugh C. Wilkinson as Headmaster of the School with effect from 1 July, 1972. It was particularly appropriate that this announcement should have been first made public at the Old Boys ' Dinner as Mr. Wilkinson is himself an Old Boy of the School ( 1 937-1 940). Needless to say the announcement was received with enthusiasm. After service with the Canadian Armed Forces during the Second World War, he attended UBC where he received a Bachelor of Commerce Degree in 1946. He spent the next 5 years in private employment and then joined the UBC Faculty of Commerce and Business Administration in 1951 as an Associate Professor to develop courses and programmes in production management. The result of this work was the formation of the Division of Industrial Administration of which he was Chairman until 1962 when he went overseas for 4 years on leave of absence. On his return to UBC in 1966, Mr. Wilkinson concentrated on teaching and research in the fields of labour relations and marine transportation, and was active as a management consultant in industry and government. Other academic qualifications held by Mr. Wilkinson include: Master of Business Administration, University of Washington(1955) and Master of Science from the College of Aeronautics, Cranfield, England (1970) and he is also a member of the Association of Professional Engineers of B.C. Although not taking over officially until 1 July, at the invitation of the Acting Headmaster, Mr. Wilkinson took up residence in the School on 1 May and spent the rest of the term talking to groups and individuals, both staff and boys, but for the most part, listening and thereby learning a great deal about the kind of problems that a Headmaster has to face in the 1970 ' s.
