SCHOOL NOTES The opening of Brown Hall has been the major event of the year. It is the gift of lX1rs. R. A. Brown. of Calgary, in honour of her son, N111 R. A. Brown. who graduated in 1932. The building itself consists of a large Dining Hall, roughly 60' x 302 oak-floored. oriel-windowed and in the tradition of a Uni- versity College Hall. Below are three fine class rooms. The kitchen, which adjoins the Dining Hall. is on two floors, the lower being devotezl to refrigeration. vegetables, butchering, etc., and the upper to the actual cooking and preparation of the meals. Externally it is finished in brick and linked to School House by a thirty foot causeway. These are the bare details. but the Hall itself is dignified and beautiful. yet it continues to make School House seem its natural parent and not a poor relation. There is no question that its effect upon the future life of the School will be incalculable. A Centennial Rugby Tour with representatives from St. George's and Shawnigan was organised from the School to play schools in England and rep. teams in Scotland. W'hile the actual results were somewhat disastrous in that one match only was won -literally hon the Playing Fields of Eton - the tour was a great success in all other respects. Now that we have blazed the trail it would seem probable that other Commonwealth countries may follow our example and send their teams to Britain. Numbers have risen steadily and at this moment more than 220 boys are registered for September. while the waiting list grows daily. One tragedy has marred the year. Mr. Derek Burdett arrived from Oxford in September to teach Social Studies. In February he was accidentally drowned at Quamichan Lake while accompanying a Scouts party on one of their expeditions. He was a most likeable young man and it was indeed sad that his life should end so tragically at the very beginning of his career. B111 Genge has overcome innumerable obstacles in order to get the Black and Red published on time- no mean feat -and since he is waiting for these notes they can be concluded with his own editorial plagiarism- The other events will be found elsewhere.
