JOHN HUTCHINGS Beastly, our friendly dancing bear, exhibited his mean streak this year, keeping the boys in line as school captain. Moreover, as fullback on the Senior Soccer Team, he mercilessly mauled the attacking forwards. But hockey is his true love, aside from wenching. The school finally built a cage strong enought to hold him, and Beast was able to become a border for the first time. Which leads us to the greatest problem: how will we get him out at the end of the year, and past the Fort Garry Police. LAUREN JACKLIN Nipawin’s number one son found himself a permanent niche as a Senior Prefect. Although he had reservations about playing football, play he did. Lauren really likes being in grade twelve since he is no longer low man on the totem pole. Nicknamed Red Power, because of his ability to collect goals in hockey like scapls, and scalps of grade nines like goals. Lauren pins his hopes for a better world on Canada’s number one politician — Eagle Keys. WALLACE FINLAYSON The Eskimo’s representative from the ‘Frozen Vegetable Department’ to S.J.R. this year, Whalefat was notorious for his discovery along with Al, of the great thrive of poker enthusiasts in the school. The pair transformed this dormant source of wealth into prosperity. Wally went on at great lengths describing the departure and arrival ceremonies of the dogsleds to his igloo in Yellowknife. When our side-burn champ was half serious, he could be seen in basketball, where he was a great asset. MORGAN THOMAS Morg continues to amaze all and sundry with his remarkable ability for self-injury. Although he appears to be accident-prone, Morg valiantly repulsed attacking forwards for the Senior Soccer Team. Dai Postie also served in the important capacity of the official policeman for the Basketball Team, and as guinea pig for the strange experiments carried out in the Prefect’s Common Room on moonless nights. This explains something about him; you decide what. GREG THOMAS Greg found this year that things were getting too monotonous around the place, so he decided to take a little holiday. He returned to the foothills from whence he came. In the cream of his career he could be seen as a black streak racing down the soccer field. Although he was invisible against a black background, Benny was a real standout on the ice. Despite the fact that Ben was not a chemist, he spent much of his time developing a black cotton for whites to pick. MICHAEL BOOKBINDER Booky’s favourite hang-up was himself. His ape attitude makes him a ‘Topper’ as far as dog chasing and football are concerned. In entertaining the smoking room boys it was inevitable and deliberate that he reached — 999 points in attempted cut-downs. His lack of success in this field can probably best be attributed to the saying, “You can fool some people sometime, but you can’t fool everybody all the time”. Mike’s ability was found on the football field, both last year, and for as long as football lasted this year. JIM ROWED Razzle’s hockey playing, countrary to popular belief, is not too offensive. The rink gave him wide scope for venting his frustrations. Razzale was espoused the cause of the disaffected in History class, much to the chagrin of the disaffected. One of those masochists who insisted on flagellating themselves by running cross-country, Razzle at least had the excuse of some success. Nevertheless, Jim remains melancholy since the untimely demise of his pet, Howard the Turtle. 14
