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.

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.

GwduMlM DAVID McBEATH: Our quiet introverb is a SOUND chem student. He was aLOUD to par¬ ticipate in school activities such as hockey and football and, at times, soft spoken Dave annoised everyone with his calm, reasonable arguments. Meg (aphone) pulled gus’ tail from under him. McBeath, McBeath, McBeath, how sounds your Imperial theme? Dig! Razz! Brake! Rumble! Screech! Drag! Pause. Silence (out of breath, Dave?) Really, Dave was an active asset to the sixth. Good luck, Dave. IAN MALCOLMSON: A guy like Ian kind of grows on you. Weird Beard,” with the motive of chasing BH girls this year, got his flying license and became a bush pilot. After many close shaves on the ski slopes, Ski Mondays played a perma- ent part of Maquis’ school work (even in the Spring). Scrunch scraped through the academic year particularly delighting in mathematics. WAYNE MITCHELL: The only Canadian from Colorado Springs, our teddy bear showed his stuff on the Fort William ski trip. Mitch also played senior soccer. Lurch’s dorm-mate unhap¬ pily found his room adjoined to Veg’s, Frog’s, and Pill’s dorm, and complained bitterly of Frog’s midnight jokes. Soon Mitch had the key to the situation though. Unexpectedly awakened, Mitch- ner saw time fly at 4:00 A.M., all to Frog’s alarm. In his spare time, our brainy bristlepad memor¬ ized log tables or created correct chem electron equations. DAVID NICHOLS: There is a rumor around that David B. attended S.J.R. this year. . .Chopin forsook his athletic career for such pursuits as piano pounding and cycle cruising. Our sad Santa was leader of the Cadet Band and ran the Volun¬ tary Exercise Group (V.E.G.). One of the quieter members of the Sixth, Dave may dessert to an American University next year. Good luck! JOHN NANSON: Mike was one of Professor J. Nanson’s better chem students this year. Scraping through physics with an 80, John also found time to teach Lurch and Block some judo. Our shutter bug, who is responsible for many of this year’s candids, also taught photography as an option. Being a hardy senior footballer and nature boy, John chose to sleep out on the balcony this winter. We wish John all the best of luck in university. BOB PILBROW: Our nervous mouse, a semi¬ active member of the Sixth, played volleyball and soccer until an injury set him back a bit. Pillbox’s dragging ambitions were curbed early in the year, so he wasn’t consoled later when he became at¬ tached to Stovel. What Pill couldn’t do with muscle, he did with words as Gabby, the famous Apteryx columnist. Bob also attended a few maths classes this year, but always left in the middle to get his books.
