GwbwtM PETER FAHLGREN: (Burp) Pete played senior football like a mad dog this year. Every morning, Pete could be heard issuing his challenge to the prefects. . .snore! The future mayor of Red Lake attained puberty a long time ago and since then, his bass voice has been indispensible to the choir. Bow-bow continued to disprove the rumor that his bark was worse then his bite. Our dainty ballerina was a worthy addition to the play, al¬ though some people said: I wouldn’t send a dog out as a knight like this. ” BOB CALQUHOUN: Our ski bum hopes to make the 69” Olympics. Again fulfilling his function as S.J.R.’s only full-time-weekly-day-boy, he rode the freights as box and brake man and he always talks about his ties with the railway. The cry of the Aborigine (heh-heh-heh) sounded from the back of many a class. Our serious athlete could be seen looming up afar” on the ski slopes of every ski resort in Manitoba and Ontario. Good in the hospital. DAVID FITZJOHN: Fitz” played senior soccer and, along with Schwartz, co-ordinated the Mon¬ day Options, the self help tutorial system, and founded the S.J.R. International Tennis Team. To stoke his mathematical genius, Dave acquired more than his usual amount of food at lunch. Our Red River Scholar’s lax attitude towards chem in no way detracted from his high standings (sup¬ ported by his size 12 sneakers). IAN FRASER: WHO IS DOPEY? I.F. perhaps. Dope was an active member of the sixth: tied for highest scorer in the soccer team (one goal), proficient in badminton, cross-country, volleyball, ping-pong, and basketball. Missing the occasional chem class, Sport could often be found running off a rush issue of the Apteryx. Ian was some¬ what surprised to find son amie” going to the lake in the winter, but managed to get around somehow. Ian hopes to attend Queen’s next year where he’ll have his own maid. CRAIG FRANCIS: Cheating barbers on Wednes¬ day nights by giving haircuts for a quarter, Frunky was also the co-builder of Thunker City and the inventer of the Great Ice Wall. Jean Pierre changed school traditional dress with his jeans and cowboy boots. Craig was center in senior football and a member of the senior basketball team. He also proved to be a definite asset in physics and maths. BILL GARDNER: Our royal highness conde¬ scended to join the ranks of the dayboy class this year. Being good Samaratins, we collected mis¬ placed (??) books and returned them to their respective owners?? Exalting the football field, Bill only made one big slip this year. ' Godner’ also graced the hockey rink and found time to direct master’s classes. Bill received due gratitude. Joining mortals in the play this year, Coifi chose to play the role (of a tempter). We wish Bill the best of luck at U. of M- next year.

GvduMiu BILL GRAY: What with organizing the carnival, taking a role in the school play, being the first dayboy prefect, and patting out other small prob¬ lems, our popular devoted” Socred politician managed to fit in football and hockey. Bumf, Liz’s friend (?), Lallyed around Fort William, but eventually fell a victim ofG.G. (Gabby Goldthorp). MICHAEL BROOK: The big M” was a senior prefect this year and got along very well with all the masters. Mike threw his weight around on the football field and also played senior volleyball. Dropping basketball for education, Mike got the expected results. Baby Huey” had many a one sided love affair this year and proved to be the perfect dorm-mate for Brooks. Retarded in the sports field because of a bad back, we hope Mike has a quick recovery and a happy future in Calgary. JOHN KIDDELL: Before caging the female field, John was a Feld man until he was struck by the dirty M.” J.B. was all broken up because he did not play football this year. Due to a fractured left wing, stump became the top garbage man on the Senior Hockey Team. Our red-haired senior pre¬ fect was miscast in the play as a priest. His greatest ambition was discovered to be to catch up in either algebra, geometry, physics, or chemistry. Good luck John, in this and your many other am¬ bitions. JAMIE McDONALD: A first term day bug, our pun-filled Frog jumped to become a boarder and prefect second term. This cool quarterback left football after two games with a gibbled right hopper. He toured General Hospital for a week, sure he was going to croak. Our C.O. was on the shooting team. An active track and field man, Chopper Jr. was often heard saying: Come on Schlude, slow down, huh?” Caught in a one cow stampede, Frog dispersed his distress in a pil¬ grimage to Vancouver, co-driving Wilson’s Mustang last Christmas Holidays. We hope Trent University can survive his humour next year. JIM MACDONALD: Our favorite vegetable tried to sprout muscles in the wright room this year, but not to much turniped. Veg played senior soc¬ cer and was rooted to the volleyball courts in late fall. Jim also branched out as a senior prefect this year. Carrot top proved an admirable consular in settling many of the problems which cropped up on the third floor and was unsuccessfully trying to improve Nanson’s appearance all year. We are certain that Jim will harvest his share of the high marks in June. Lettuce wish him luck. ANGUS CAMPBELL: Straightened out from last year Gus-Gus” found that he played senior hock¬ ey and senior football — his own claim to fame being Mag’s garbage man. He is easily recognized by his running in confused circles or by the crash of his geometry set. Our hard working mouse tried, in vain, to spread his compassion for mustard to other tables, but Kirb stopped him for good.

G ' wJm M DON HONEYMAN: Honk excelled in football, hockey, volleyball, and syndicate functions. Spend¬ ing most of his time under the kitchen counter, Don also had a tickertape affair with a guy from Frik-a-Frak (that well known metropolis). Super¬ cycle can be seen (if you don’t blink) decimating the canine class. Stovelly and Honk constantly conspired to blow up the chem lab although they never pulled it off. DEREK GREENIAUS: Gwad was the goal-den boy of the senior soccer team and could after¬ wards be found in the rifle range. His ambition is to present a mink coat to his mother (!?). Our fearless hunter is rapidly driving the wildlife of St. James to extinction. Der took time out from his studies to swing at dances. However, under the calming influence of David B., Derek con¬ cealed the true nature of his character. JOHN KIRBY: Our St. Vital spectacle skied, played senior soccer, took absentee slips to the office and ran the cross-country this year. Our only practical joker would fume when he came back from hunting without a deer. Our three wheeled (steering wheel and two other wheels) driver plans to get a B.S.A. 50 for more power, and thus we wish him luck, (don’t go too fast, John). DOUG MACDONALD: Lou played ra ther a rough game of football, bowser ball, and basket¬ ball, somehow managing to get away with the dirtiest moves. Besides continuing his revision of the English language, Lou disposed his talents on French, much to the grief of Mr. Glegg. Doug spent most of his weekends bouncing off curbs with Pill. Lou, Nanson’s dorm-mate, was recogniz¬ able from lengthly distances because of his unique and piercing laugh. GREG KLASSEN: Cassius made a big hit with his Honda this year, much to Frog’s delight. Our slightly nosey character doesn’t shave much and thus, he is often seen with the fuzz. Our hard working physics fan made a big hit with Mike this year and great things are expected from him next year (at the Frats). KERRY MAGNUS: Black Mag boarded; in Thompson House and on the rinks. He curled for the school in the Inter-high Bonspiel last Christmas holidays. As well as playing Senior Soccer and getting the championship winning touchdown in house football, our garbage man took up skiing where he found a disliking for moque-hills.” We hope you get a good deal as you shuffle on through life.
