Hew Horn Sfjtfm With the end in view of greater overall participation and of having four houses in the Upper School next year, we have an experimental system at work at the moment. This is designed to involve all or almost all of the Upper School in inter-house activity. We hope that this will produce an ever increasing participation in school athletics and activities by those who are proficient, but also by those who are interested. With this end in view, we are now trying a system in which the three houses are divided into four equal groups by age. These groups will compete in all categories of sport from hockey to basketball, from volleyball to football. Thus a house with a fearsome football team may be made to look disco-ordinated on the volleyball court, just as the basketball champions may feel out of place on the soccer field. The object is total participation, not specialization. To this end also, we are returning to the point system that many of you will remember, where any extracurricular school activity and academics will balance sporting ability. Thus the librarian with an eighty per cent average who takes the lead in a school play and is a Junior Prefect may gain as many points for his house as the athlete who happens to be a member of all the school teams, but contributes nothing else to the community. As was said at the start, we are hoping for more participation in all aspects of the school life. If more people would become involved in the internal welfare of the community, we would not have to be involved in so much outside com¬ petition. We hope that this experimental system may make outside activity of secondary interest to internal competition and the greater welfare of the many, rather than the greater glory of the few. Next year’s Yearbook will report on the success or failure of our endeavours. BACK ROW: Newbound, Searle, Gardiner M., Smith G., Verges, McNight B.

The group was set up as a committee to determine the requirements for a letter, design the sweater, and to approve a design for the letter itself. Letters were awarded on a basis of overall proficiency on the School Senior Teams, a green letter for one year and a gold letter for two years participa¬ tion. One basic requirement was that the recipient be active during both the fall and winter terms. Eleven green and ten gold letters were awarded, with Young House having twelve recipients, Richardson five, and Hamber four. A new student organization was formed this year under the leadership of Mr. Broderick. The STU¬ DENTS’ ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION as it was called, was established in order to examine and discuss the activities of S.J.R. under the general heading of Ath¬ letics.” Several meetings and discussion were held on the subject of student participation in the compulsory sport system but because of exams, the World Hockey Tournament, etc., no real action resulted. Having made a good start this year, it is hoped that next year the group will hold a stronger influence on student par¬ ticipation in athletics. We would like to thank Mr. Broderick for his time and effort that he spent on the group. Smoi SmaJm BACK ROW: Van Haren (H), Sprague (R), Hill (R), Smith G.

Horn Ttyotk Honda Hem In order to introduce a little variety into the house competition, Hamber condescended to let Richardson eek through to victory last year. This year, although it may seem monotonous, Hamber has resumed its winning strea of two and three years ago. (No Horsing around in 1967). In the football season, Hamber put on its usually courageous show against tremendous odds. The senior team was aided by a tough Yankee rookie brought up from the VEG leagues who had a Thing” about him. He scored all ol the game’s points in our 1-0 upset over Richardson. Hamber made a fine showing in cross-country and soccer in the fall. In the cross-country, however, unsportsman¬ like protests were made concerning Hamber’s fleet four-footed friend imported from Ralston Downs. The Hamber junior teams set the pace in volleyball and basketball and the senior teams might have done better had they not been short handed on several occasions. The usual strength of Hamber was exhibited in house hockey. The A team might have done even better had our goalie not insisted on wearing his mother’s army boots in the net, and nose-checking the opposition as they crossed the blue line (from the net, yet). No doubt Hamber’s championship form in both scholarship and sports will continue to reep rewards until the end of the year. We are looking forward to track and field when Hamber’s big hope for the shot put will get his oppor¬ tunity to disprove comments that he is senile and full of blarney. In closing, I would like to thank all the staunch Hamberite supporters who showed up at games whether they knew how to’ play them or not. I especially thank Mr. Waudby, our retiring housemaster whose thirty odd years of leadership has been the spirit of Hamber’s victories, and Mr. McLoed, Mr. Olsen, and Mr. Stewart for all their support. — Mark Jackman Hem Canada’s Centennial year promises to be a very good year for Richardson House. Last year we won the Master’s Shield and we are heading for another victory. House competition is enhanced this year by the new experimental system, whereby all houses are divided into tour groups, A, B, C, and D, according to age. These groups are smaller than before, and to be successful, everyone in the group must participate. Because of the increasing house spirit in Richardson, they have done admirably. During the fall term, we won Junior soccer, Junior football, and Intermediate cross-country. This term, under the new system, we have won A basketball, B basketball, and are leading in C hockey. With a good turn out for track and field next term Richardson stands an excellent chance to win the shield again. Our sincere gratitude is extended to all the people who have worked for the house this year. It would not be fair to single out individual boys since there are so many who have tried hard. We would, however, like to thank our Housemaster, Mr. Wellard, and Mr. Glegg and Mr. Mackenzie, to whose time, effort, and unfailing support we owe much of our success. — David Sprague, Simon Truelove ((fomuj Horn Young House started off well this year. We won Senior Football and fared quite well m Senior Soccer. Our Junior squad has been fighting valiantly for the cause against tough odds. As we write this the new House Sports System is under way. All four Young House groups are showing great prowess in the three winter sports: hockey, basketball and volleyball. Our A and B hockey teams are confident of winning their series, while our C and D teams did well m Academically Young House is faring no worse than the other houses. As always Young House is looking forward to the third term and Track and Field. We hope to once again win the majority of events and recapture the Masters’ Shield We would like to thank Mr. Ainley, our Housemaster; Mr. Leonard, and also Peter Sheen, Jamie Little, Paul Leather- dale, Clive McEwen, Eddie Myers, Rob Kennedy and Bob Dunstan for their active support. — Bob Williams, Doug Kiddell 47
