Editorial at la Nash june Ist., 1969 Ever and anon Cbut not since 19545 The Editorial Muse has refused, as now, to play the metrical bore, And has taken her hair down, and become brighter and breezier, And cast off the corsets of convention and slipped on something looser and easier. For is not the month June? And the School Fields echo to the tune Cf the oilicial click of cricket ball on bat Qnot to mention the unofficial clunk of baseball in mittj , And to go with it The plonk of tennis ball on strings, And other such melodious things. We are care-free creatures of the sun, With little to worry one Save, on the horizon, a little cloud, no bigger than a man's hand, Which signifies the approach of 'S.S.S.G.' for the matricular band. For the rest? - just turn the pages And you will read of the School Year through all its stages, From the academic and athletic exploits of Jones Major land what could be finer?j To the more trivial attempts of Jones Minor. And next year, as of old, Our Muse will return to the metrical fold, With merely the passing thought, to impede her, That, as usual, no one will ever read her. C.F.G.

We just missed topping the 200, but it seems obvious that we are now on the way back towards the record numbers of five years ago. Like all schools, although to a far less extent than most, we have experienced some disappointments. When taken into the context of the whole year, however, these have been small indeed, and had to be expected. The year, in fact, has been a good one. In Rugger, our principal activity, the lst. XV was most unfortunate to receive so little reward for its efforts. In no match was it badly beaten, and indeed in most of them it had, in fact, the major share of the play. The team was young and many of the members will be back next year, so that future pros- pects are bright. Then again, snow at Christmas put the Swimming Pool out of action for a whole term, but it is now in full use once more. Perhaps the most exciting of this year's activities has been the enor- mous interest taken in Sailing. In the Summer Term one third of the school sailed at least twice a week, and every day more than 30 boys were on the water. This was due almost solely to the enthusiasm and efiorts of Mr. Wood, who has now established Sailing as an integral part of the school's outdoor programme. Cricket, too, has been up again. As a voluntary sport it ranked sec- ond only to Sailing, while the other activities - Track and Field, Vol- leyball, Shooting, Tennis - all had their devotees. Indeed the summer term was one of the most pleasant for years, and, while the Matric. results are not at this stage known, the general impression is that there was less gloom and despondency during the exams. than is customary on the occasion. Through Professor Roy of the University of Victoria we were en- abled to enjoy a number of outside lecturers visiting Uvic and coming to the school as well. It would obviously be invidious to compare these lecturers, as their subjects were so different, but those given by Dr. Wood CTlze Population Explosionl and Mr. Butler, former High 7 Commissioner to Malaysia, QSoutlz-East Asiaj were outstanding. These two gentlemen are, of course, local and additional to Dr. Roy's list. We were all saddened to hear of the tragic accident to Gordon Taylor fClass of '64j , and it was an inspired gesture by a Whitehorse parent that a memorial should be placed to Gordon in the School Chapel. It consists of a large oak board, matching the War Memorial Boards, with the Yukon Crest in full colour, and listing the Chapel Officers since the Dedication in- 1962. Mr. Brookman produced the crest and inscriptions, and the board itself was done by friends from the Yukon. Transportation has always been an expensive problem, so that the anonymous gift of 33,000 by a parent towards the purchase of a Ford Club Wagon came as a great and pleasant surprise. This 1969 fourteen- seater eight-cylinder automatic heavy-duty vehicle arrived at exactly the right moment, when we were really stuck for transportation of the sailing fraternity, and the School is immensely grateful. Inevitably at the end of each year we must say good-bye to some members of the Staff, and, as always, with regret. After eleven years of service as Matron and Relief Nurse, Mrs. Warlow has retired and will be greatly missed. From the Faculty, Mr. Storr, having achieved 25 years of service to the School, has withdrawn to live in Parksville. Among the tokens of goodwill he received was a handsome inscribed tankard from the boys, who, as other Old Boys, will remember him with affection. We also say good-bye regretfully to Mr. Wray, who is returning to Australia, to Mr. Barber, who has been promoted to an Assistant Professorship at the College of William and Mary, and to Mr. Kenward, who is proceeding to Gold River. The School is grate- ful to these gentlemen for the many services rendered beyond the call of dutyw and wishes them every success in the future. Their replace- ments will be Mr. Fay, who comes from Australia via Alberta to teach History and English, lNIr. Hartley, presently in charge of Phys. Ed. at Rothesay Collegiate, and hir. Gudmundseth QEnglishj and Mr. Mc- Ormond QChemistryl, who have just graduated from Uvic and who previously were graduates of Victoria Senior Secondary and Oak Bay Senior Secondary respectively. To these gentlemen the School extends a warm welcome. H.M. 8 BARNACLE House Captain T. C. Conduit House Prefects D. Brinton R. Grove B. J. Grumbach SCHOOL OFFICERS Head Prefect T. C.

Conduit, Head Prefect 9 SPEECH DAY A large number of parents was present at the Annual Prize-Giving in the Gymnasium, the Guest of Honour being Dr. Sydney Wayne Jackman, of the University of Victoria. Dr. Jackman gave a brilliant address-erudite, witty and humorous. His theme was Time, and if the reaction was any criterion the audi- ence received the message. Incidentally, his observations on the early history of a certain other school, which apparently had started as a girls' school, and the present trend towards co-education caused con- siderable aniusement, as did his comparison of the questionable habits of today with those of our great-grandfathers. Trevor Conduit, as Head Prefect, thanked the speaker ably and briefly, and was followed by the Chairman of the Board, who took the opportunity to endorse the observations on the financial situation made in the Headmaster's Report, with which, as is customary, the proceed- ings had opened. The School Song was then sung with great gusto, and, following HThe Queen, all adjourned to lunch and to prepare for the Sports in the afternoon. It was a splendid morning in every way. H.M.

Each school day begins there, and each day is brought to end with evening prayers there. Hence, it is in the Chapel that the day's work is framed in the daily round of morning and evening prayers, as we seek to worship the Author and Giver of Life and the Source of all Learning. Although we have nothing noteworthy to report, yet we do recall some services that are worthy of mention. The Thanksgiving Festival was held on Sunday, October 6th., when the Chapel was beautifully decorated by the boys under the leadership of Mrs. Timmis. The annual Remembrance Day service was held again on Novem- ber llth., and since this was a school day the whole school company was present. We took part in a great service and, this year. the bugles really rang out for the solemn parts of the occasion. Our Carol Service, strictly a domestic aHair, was held on Sunday, December 15th. The Lessons were read by Masters and Boys, and 21 those present sang the Carols in a way worthy of any choir. A generous offering was received for U.N.I.C.E.F. lfVe are now preparing for the annual Speech Day Service, which will be held too late to record in these notes.

Only two further matches were won during the season - an unimpressive record by any standards. The most frustrating aspect of the season was undoubtedly the team's inability to take advantage of scoring chances. In strong attack- ing positions, dropped passes, missed kicks and loss of possession in loose and set scrurns took place with exasperating frequency. Most of the trouble lay in midfield, where a lack of cohesion, to- gether with a tendency to receive the ball standing still, gave the centres little chance of beating their opposite numbers. Occasionally there were promising individual runs from Reeves, but these lone sorties were rarely supported and seldom escaped the cover defence. On the wings Shave and Rockwell were sadly neglected, and little use was made of their strong running. The main scoring threat to the opposition was provided by Conduit, who combined effectively with the back row to score a number of fine tries. In defence the team was saved time and again by the stalwart efforts of the pack in depriving the opposition of the ball. Dobson and Grove stifled many of the attacks close to the scrum, while Dade covered vast tracts of ground to disrupt dangerous movements in the open. Gutside the scrum, however, the tackling lacked resolution, and a lack of ex- perience in positional play gave the opposing three-quarters ample space in which to manoeuvre. Keil, at full back, was a noticeable ex- ception to the defensive shortcomings of the backs. His elusive running with the ball more than compensated for the limited range of his touch-kicking. The pack was never dominated, and refused to be discouraged when little use was made of their hard-earned possession of the ball. There was no shortage of possession in the loose: Grumbach, after a disas- trous afternoon against Brentwood, gained parity in the set scrums, and the guile of Dobson and Grove made up for the lack of a line-out specialist. The Independent School matches were all lost. Depressing as this fact may be, it does scant justice to the way in which the team per- formed in these games. Against Brentwood and Shawnigan the margin never exceeded five points, and the issue was in doubt until the final whistle. St. George's were twice able to score over twenty points by an impressive display of running by their back division, aided by some crucial errors in the school defence. In spite of the discouraging effect of such an unsuccessful record, it is a credit to the team as a whole, and, in particular, to Conduitls cap- taincy, that throughout the season there was no deterioration in the team spirit or the will to win. 23 Results were as follows: OCTOBER 16 School Mount Douglas, won 20-8 30 School Oak Bay, won 32-0 NOVEMBER 2 School Brentwood College, lost 6-9 7 School Claremont, lost 0-11 9 School Old Boys, lost 9-11 1-1 School lN1ount Douglas, won 6-0 16 School St. Georgels, lost 9-26 21 School Claremont, lost 3-17 30 School Shawnigan Lake School, lost 8-13 DECEMBER 14 School An Incogsl' XV, lost 13-28 FEBRUARY 15 School Royal Roads, won 13-6 23 School Brentwood College, lost 3-5 MARCH 1 School St. George's, lost 11-21 8 School Shawnigan Lake School, lost 3-5 M.W FIRST FIFTEEN CHARACTERS CONDUIT CCaptainj Cscrum halfj -Set a fine example to the rest of the team by his consistent performance. Possessed sound tactical sense, though he was sometimes lacking in imagination. His attacking break was a constant threat to the opposition, while his tireless covering was an invaluable asset in defence. SHAVE Cwingl - It was unfortunate that injury prevented his making more than two appearances in the Christmas term. A powerful runner and poten- tially the best attacking back. His handling, however, was uncertain, and his slowness on the turn made him a liability in defence. SINGLETON Ccentrej -Improved steadily during the season. Lacked the necessary experience to outwit his opposite number, but possessed safe hands and an incisive tackle. REEVES tcentrel -With his sidestep and swift acceleration he was able to make a number of fine breaks, but his inclination to watch his man rather than the ball contributed to the high number of passes dropped in midfield. ROCKWELL Cwingl - Seldom had the chance to use his speed. Given space in which to move he was difficult to stop. Sometimes apt to lose concentra- tion and stray out of position in defence. 24 LAUDER ffly halfj - Possessed a good pair of hands and did well to catch many of Conduit's erratic passes. Before Christmas he had begun to develop a useful break, but an injury early in the following term restricted his activi- ties to providing a link to the centres. KEIL ffull backj -A whole-hearted performer, whether at full back or on the wing. His diminutive stature belied his ability to stop players almost twice his size. His penchant for catching the ball under pressure, and dodging past several opponents to launch a counter-attack, was one of the highlights of the season. GRUMBACH Qhookerj - Not a particularly fast striker of the ball, but scrum- maged well, and combined with his props to gain an adequate supply from the scrum. Although hesitant with the ball in hand, he was mobile in loose play and possessed one of the best tackles in the team. MEEKER I Cpropl - By the end of the season he had developed into one of the outstanding members of the pack. A solid scrummager, he moved his ample figure round the field with surprising adroitness. Excelled in receiving the tapped pass from the back of the line-out, and in prising the ball out of the loose mauls. MEEKER II Cpropj -Improved steadily after his arrival in the lst. XV. He gave considerable support to the hooker, and revelled in the thick of the loose mauls. HARTMAN Csecond rowj -A stolid member of the pack. A supporting for- ward rather than a jumping specialist, he lacked the agility to make many clean catches in the line-out. Sometimes clumsy, he nevertheless worked tire- lessly to win the ball from set and loose scrums. LEMA Csecond rowj - His lack of height was a disadvantage, but his sense of timing and co-ordination enabled him to win useful possession at the front of the line-out. Despite a lack of speed, his powerful bursts in broken play were difiiicult to stop. DOBSON Qwing forwardj -His sense of anticipation was cleverly used both in attack and defence, but he sometimes lacked the necessary stamina to maintain his effort throughout the game. Several admirable tries were scored as a direct result of his persistent backing up. GROVE CNO. 85 - Led the pack with verve and skill. His ability at the back of the line-out was invaluable, and his acute tactical sense was usefully em- ployed in cover defence and launching attacks from the base of the scrum. DADE Cwing forwardj -A fast-breaking wing forward, he covered the field with surprising speed and agility. His cover defence was outstanding and his only fault lay in a tendency to run across the field when in possession. M.W. 25 Stir Qnd. XV Standing: G. lN'ay, J. Duthie, J. lNIcDonald, P. Salmon, D.

SECOND FIFTEEN As a result of an abnormally high rate of injuries amongst members of the lst. XV, the 2nd. XV was seldom able to field a team at full strength. The pack, under Tolman's leadership, strove manfully to ob- tain an adequate supply of possession, but were frequently dominated by heavier and more skilful opposition. Outside the scrum there was general reluctance to tackle, and poor defensive work led to a number of high-scoring defeats. Goorevitch II and Rainsford were the most consistent of the three-quarters, while Smith, at full back, proved a useful asset when he had overcome the nervousness which had plagued his performances in the lst. XV. Eleven matches were played, of which two were won, one drawn and eight lost fpoints for 59, against 2l6j. M.W. THIRD FIFTEEN The victory against the seconds at the beginning of the season may not be spoken of with bated breath in future years, nor will posterity Q and particularly the secondsj care to remember the score. What was ably demonstrated was one cheering fact--we had a nucleus of players who were experienced enough to promise much for the forth- coming session. Unfortunately, the evil eyes of various talent scouts were upon us during this match, and the covetous ones spirited away at least half-a- dozen of our better players, leaving a sadly-depleted B group. Such is the price of brilliance. It would now be logical to record that we never recovered from this blow, and that we proceeded to lose all our matches with varying de- grees of ignominy. This was not so. True, we did lose our first three major encounters, but in the second term we remained undefeated. It would be quite unrealistic to say that we played good', rugby, for we lacked that blending of experience which is normally essential to a team, and I do think that we had, per- haps, more than our share of good luck. However, none of this detracts from the outstanding feature of the thirds, this year, --good team spirit and discipline. There were both in ample measure. My thanks go to Brinton and Morgan for their dual captaincies. S.J.H.W. 27 4th. XV Standing: R. McGowan, D. Cornwall, D. Dennison, R. Fowler, D. Mundell, XV. Hope, C.. Fuzak, D. Li, NV. Logan, I.

FOURTH FIFTEEN As the most successful team in the school, the members of the 4th. XV can perhaps be forgiven for any vestige of conceit which may yet remain. That they consistently won matches was not due to the meas- ure of individually good players in the side, but rather to an apprecia- tion of the more basic skills, and a disciplined application of them. I would not be belittling the thirds if I said that the fourths appeared to play more enterprising Rugby, and were no less spirited and enthusi- astic. McDern1ott, at scrum half, played with rare native cunning, and I should like to thank both him and Keenlyside for their leadership. S.J.H.W. FIFTH FIFTEEN Although the fifths enjoyed very little luck, all gave of their best in the matches played. All three of our encounters were lost, but we have the satisfaction of knowing that we gave our opponents a real fight on occasion. The most outstanding player on the team was Wong, who played very well in his first year of Rugby. Everybody did his best, and we were able to maintain the school spirit on the field of play. Bruce B. Falkins, Captain COLTS FIFTEEN The Senior Colts enjoyed their best season for some years. For the first time since the age basis was adopted we enjoyed something close to parity as far as weight was concerned, and the result was that all games against other Independent Schools were nip and tuck affairs. Forward the side was adequate in the tight and in the line-out, but somewhat slow-footed in the loose. Spicer, Barrett and Mulberg were prominent performers. Behind the scrum Middleton had a good season at scrum half, and Gerdes was a spirited and courageous wing, but there was a vital lack of thrust and penetration in the centre. McPhee captained the side with enthusiasm and in a very sporting manner. His side deserved, perhaps, at least one other success, but the scores attest to the closeness of the matches. Six matches were played, of which two were won and four lost fpoints for 34, against 38j. W.R.G.W. 29 FV 'rj 4' SENIOR COLTS Standing: IW. Bogan, J. McLean, G. Watt, B. Vallance, C. Spicer, C.

JUNIOR COLTS FIFTEEN The Junior Colts were a very light and inexperienced team, and suffered some heavy defeats. To their merit, however, they retained their keenness, and were a much-improved side towards the end of the season. Macl-Ewing and Gaither were the best of the backs, while Hedernan and Cameron both had excellent seasons in the forwards. Eight matches were played, of which two were won and six lost fpoints for 26, against 1911. D.G.W. JUNIOR JUNIOR COLTS XV Standing: T. Miles, T. Gloyd, D. Venables, J. Miller, J. Chudleigh, J.

The Clayton Cup competition was held as usual, Conduit's XI being the winners, and the House Cham- pionship went to Winslow, who for some years have dominated cricket. The First XI was enthusiastically captained by Taylor. Three mat- ches were played. In the opening game Shawnigan proved to be too strong and the School were well beaten, but the return match was a most even affair and resulted in a draw. The only other match was against St. Ceorge's, and this was won easily. In addition to these fix- tures a game was played against Oak Bay High School. Each side batted for an hour. and the School were beaten by five runs. Colours were awarded to Taylor and Barker. The latter also won the bat presented by University School Incogs for the best all-rounder in the School. The First XI was as follows: S. D. Taylor CCapt.j, R. G. Barker, J. Hart-Maxham, T. C. Conduit, INI. Tunnicliffe, D. S. Goorevitch II, R. J. Grove, R. W. Lauder, R. J. R. Roxburgh, M L. Wolf and G. W. Way. FIRST ELEVEN MATCHES School v. Shawnigan Lake School Shawnigan batted first and scored quickly against bowling which lacked length and direction. A succession of full pitches and long-hops was dispatched in the approved manner, and Shawnigan were able to declare at 127 for five, Hart-hlaxham taking two wickets for 15 runs. The School, in reply, started very badly, and only a stand between Taylor U81 and Conduit C211 saved them from complete collapse. They were all out for 69 against some mediocre bowling. School v. St. George's School The School,s out cricket was rather better than against Shawnigan, and St. George's were dismissed for 57. Goorevitch Qthree for 181, Conduit Qtwo for sevenj, Barker Cthree for 221 and Taylor Ctwo for onel shared the wickets. When the School batted, Tunnicliffe, who played every straight ball but was singularly unsuccessful in establish- ing contact with anything off the wicket, stayed a long time for 12. Barker made 15 not out and Taylor 11, before the School had won by six wickets. School v. Shawnigan Lake School The return match with Shawnigan, played away, was the best of the season. Shawnigan batted first and were all out for 97. Roxburgh took a good catch, and Goorevitch, with six wickets for 36 runs, bowled very well. The School's reply was spirited. Roxburgh produced a rather 32 unorthodox and lucky 20, and Hart-Maxham, Barker and Taylor made useful contributions. When Taylor was run out and Conduit failed to score all hope of beating the clock disappeared. The innings closed at 68 for 6. FIRST ELEVEN CHARACTERS TAYLOR fCaptainj - An all-rounder who has come on considerably this year. Most of his productive strokes are on the leg side at present, but he is also more confident on the off than formerly, though there is still too much space between bat and pad. Good in the field, particularly in the air, and a most enthusiastic Captain. BARKER I-A nervous starter with the bat, but his defence is good and he has some fine scoring strokes on the off side. On the leg side he is tentative, and generous to the bad ball. Performed creditably with the ball on occasion, but he was slow and guileless and suffered heavily through any indiscretions of length. Very reliable in the field, both in the air and on the ground. HART-MAXHAM - With the bat he has learned to play forward with confi- dence and now looks quite promising, though his attacking strokes are few at present. With the ball he should eventually do well. He has acquired a slight turn from the off, and is learning to vary his pace. Excellent in the field and, in general, the most improved player on the side. GOOREVITCH II-His length and direction have improved and he should do well next year. Not without promise with the bat, but his back play is weak yet. Adequate in the field. C-ONDUIT-Aggressive with the bat and will make runs when his defence improves. Shows promise with the ball but tends to try to bowl too fast and, in consequence, is frequently short of a length. Keen and active in the field. GROVE -Considerably improved with the bat and is beginning to deal well with the over-pitched ball. Weak in defence as yet. Adequate in the field. ROXBURGH-Primitive, but aggressive, with the bat and has made some timely runs. Excelled in the field, where his catching and throwing were of a high order. TUNNICLIFFE- His defence is fairly good, but when it comes to make an attacking stroke he is lost. With the ball his action is reasonable but his length variable. Adequate in the field. WOLF II-Though somewhat awkward he has come on with the bat. Keen in the field. LAUDER-He made a promising start behind the stumps. His hands are good, but he must learn to stand closer to the wicket and be more of a threat to the batsman. With the bat his eye is good but his methods agricultural. WAY-Hits hard, but his defence is very weak. When he appreciates the value of length and direction he will make a useful bowler. Fair in the field. W.R.G.W. 33 ' uv- 1.. Q. z . ft Lg-F , , 'ia 3.

CRICKET 1969 The Clayton Cup competition for teams within the School was as popular as ever this year. Four teams competed, and Crove's XI were finally successful. The House Championship went to Barnacle. Five matches were arranged for the lst. XI. The two against Shaw- nigan Lake were lost, the St. Ceorge's games were divided and the fix- ture with Cak Bay Senior Secondary was won. Conduit and Fellner led the batsmen with averages of 12 and 11 respectively, while Coore- vitch II with 11 for 116 was the most successful bowler. The fielding was on the whole good, with Fellner, Grove, Roxburgh and Meeker I outstanding. In addition to the above fixtures, the Staff lNIatch was re- vived and played after school, with each side batting for In hours. It was featured by some stubborn defensive play by the Headmaster, some acrobatic stumping by Mr. lVood and bowling of a very puzzling nature by Mr. Brookman. The School won in the last over. The following comprised the lst. XI: T. C. Conduit CCapt.j, INI. Tunnicliffe. Daniel S. Goorevitch, R. Grove, R. YV. Lauder, R. R. Roxburgh, C. W. lVay, A. Meeker, lNI. E. Fellner, E. Sladen, M. R. Reeves. 34 The 2nd, XI, keenly led by McPhee, were successful in all games played. Shawnigan Lake Colts were defeated twice, and St. George's Colts once. W.R.G.W. FIRST ELEVEN MATCHES School v. St. George's School The School opened the season at home against St. Ceorge's. The visitors batted first and were all out for 100. They were greatly assisted by the deplorable bowling and catching of the School side. The School batting was far from convincing. Lauder stayed for some time to make l0, but the rest offered little resistance, and the innings closed for 47, St. George's winning by 53 runs. School v. Shawnigan Lake School Playing away, the School, though beaten, gave an improved display in all departments. Reeves, Conduit and Coorevitch II bowled credit- ably and took two wickets each, while Fellner and Meeker I were bril- liant in the field. In reply to a score of l0l for six declared the School were only able to manage 59. Of these, 20 came from Goorevitch II in what was really the best innings played for the School this season. Several others batted more confidently than in the opening game, but the School lost by 42 runs. School v. St. Ceorge's School This game, played away, was noteworthy by reason of the close finish rather than the general calibre. Both sides appeared, at times, to make strenuous efforts to lose the match, St. Ceorge's being finally successful. The school batting was reasonable. The early batsmen, Lauder, Tunniclifife, Conduit and Goorevitch II, all reached double figures, and, later, first Crove, who made 32, and then Fellner, who added 18, treated some mediocre bowling in the approved manner, and the innings closed for 105. St. Ceorge's started dismally, their early batsmen falling to strokes of ex- treme timidity. The School bowling, however, lacked length and direc- tion. It became worse as the game progressed, and the later batsmen made merry. The School were badly rattled and well on their way to defeat when a St. Ceorge's player settled the matter by running him- self out, and the School had won by three runs. School v. Shawnigan Lake School The home game against Shawnigan Lake was a disaster. Roxburgh made an aggressive stroke in the first over and was out to a good catch, but until Fellner arrived at the crease, late in the innings, no other School batsman produced an attacking stroke. Fellner contrib- uted ll runs in short order before being run out, and the innings 35 closed for 19. Shawnigan then hit off the runs without loss and so won by 10 wickets. The fact that the game was played in the rain increased the general dreariness of the proceedings. W.R.G.W. FIRST ELEVEN CHARACTERS CONDUIT CCaptainj -'He punished loose bowling severely, but his bat was never really straight, and his defence was not sound. With the ball his length and direction were inconsistent. Adequate in the field. GOOREVITCH II- With the ball he developed trouble with his run, tried to bowl too fast and never improved on last year's form. Potentially the best batsman, he looked promising when the ball was well up to him, but he fre- quently fell to the straight ball short of a length, which he tried to drive. TUNNICLIFFE-His attacking strokes are slightly less tentative, but he re- mains weak on the leg side. Somewhat improved with the ball. Uncertain in the field. Could be very useful next year. GROVE -A batsman with a much-improved defence. Strong on the leg side and drives straight with great power. In the field his hands are safe and his throwing fast and accurate. LAUDER-He looks far more like a batsman now, both in attack and de- fence. As a stumper he stood too far from the wicket, and he was never more than a reasonable stopper. ROXBURGH - Strong on the leg side and always ready to attack the bowling, but he had an unlucky season with the bat. Splendid in the field, his catch- ing being exceptionally good and his throwing very accurate. SLADEN-Possessed a fair defence but was happier playing forward than back. Adequate in the field. WAY - Showed little improvement either with bat or ball over last year's form. Slow, and lacking in anticipation in the field. MEEKER I- A very powerful hitter, especially on the leg side, but as yet his bat is not straight enough. A very fine fielder, both on the ground and in the air. FELLNER- In style he is awkward and his bat is never quite straight. How- ever, he meets the ball with confidence, puts his weight behind it and often made runs when others failed. An excellent fielder and one of the keenest members of the side. REEVES - He had little chance with the bat or ball, but is not without prom- ise with both, and could be quite useful next year. Keen and active in the field. W.R.G.W. JUNIOR CRICKET Cricket on the junior level profited greatly from the advent of Mr. Walsh. whose effort and interest were untiring. Both games with Shawnigan Lake School were lost, and the one with Glenlyon was drawn. but there was great enthusiasm and con- siderable promise for the future. Throne, Finamore, McKin11on, Con- sidine II and Iverson were particularly prominent. The House Match played at this level was won by Barnacle House. W.R.G.W. 36 5 go ,-.- ft 5: Q, Cas. 1 'I f .

TENNIS Tennis has again proved a popular summer sport, and the courts, which seem to have survived the winter comparatively unscathed, have been used to their capacity. Thirty-two boys have been able to enjoy regular afternoon practice during the week, and the number of casual weekend players has risen sharply. The Singles and Doubles Tournaments have also recorded increased numbers of entries. Par- ticularly encouraging is the number of Harvey House boys who now play, two of whom are members of the Team. 37 Although no Independent Schools' matches can yet be reported owing to the early press date of the Black and Red, enthusiasm in the Team is high. A larger number than usual of local matches has been played: several high school fixtures have been arranged and regular practices with St. Margaret's School Team have proved particularly popular. Weekend matches against teams from the Racquet Club of Victoria and the Oak Bay Tennis Club have provided valuable ex- perience for rather untried players, all except one of last year's team having since graduated. However, the fact that this year's Team is drawn from such a wide variety of grades in the School must augur well for the future. TENNIS CHARACTERS WAY CCaptainj - As the only returning member of last year's Team, his three years of experience in school matches have been an invaluable asset. He is by far the most consistent server on the Team, and has been able to exhibit a wide range of shots, both at the net and at the back of the court. His help, both as Captain of the Team and, more generally, in the organization of Tennis this summer, is very greatly appreciated. STELCK I-In the No. 2 position, he has shown steady improvement this summer. His ground strokes have been strong and usually well-placed, and at times he has shown remarkable agility in returning difficult shots. His awk- ward back-hand shots are chiefly the result of faulty footwork. As Way's doubles partner he has performed well, and in general he shows considerable potential. GAITHER II-Since he is only in the eighth grade, his size is naturally against him. His ground shots have become stronger, and his service faster and more reliable, although he is slow to position himself for shots at the net. His even temperament and sunny disposition are assets to himself and to the Team. GAITHER I- His shots are hard and well-placed: unfortunately he has been unable to check a strong tendency to double fault. In contrast to his brother, his temperament is rather volatile, but together they make a most effective doubles pair, and have had a successful season so far. BURROWS-Small, vociferous but very determined, his consistent perform- ance has held the Team together during some crucial moments. His strong, well-placed forehand shots compensate for a weak backhand. He has made a very encouraging start in the Team, and shows considerable promise for future seasons. LANG-He has fully merited his place in the Team this season with some successful matches, although a late arrival. His competition play has been consistent, handicapped only by a weak backhand. Undoubtedly, he will be an asset in the future. N.G.B. 38 ' 2 4 l 5 4 I 5 fg l BASKETBALL Standing: J. Duthie, J. Johanson, G. Hansen, R. Lauder, J. Gaither, D. Goorevitch I. Seated: R. Dade, J.

The team performed without a coach and organized practices in its own time, always showing a great desire to play well. As always, we were outclassed by the more professional teams in the Public School League, but when we competed against the other Independent Schools our true form was shown. This year we hosted the Independent Schools' Basketball Tourna- ment and beat Brentwood in the morning, to gain our place in the finals of the afternoon. In this final we faced St. George's and lost in the last minutes of the game, the final score being 66-59. Two of our side made the all-star team - Purcell and McDonald. With all but two players returning next year the future looks very bright. All the members of the team would like to thank Mr. Gardiner for his invaluable assistance during the season in organizing our matches. Richard Grove, Captain 39 BASKETBALL CHARACTERS GROVE fCaptainj Cforwardj - An alert player with quick hands. A good de- fensive player, and smooth on offence, with a good jump shot. PURCELL CCoachj Cguardj -The only graduating member of the starting five, and the playmaker for the Team. His coolness under pressure and his good shooting were both great assets. MCDONALD Cguardl -A very fast and well-co-ordinated player. He made the best of all opportunities to dribble and use his accurate jump shot. DYKES Ccentrej -A strong rebounder and a good inside player. He fed well and was a consistent performer. DADE Cforwardj -Though rather short for a forward, he made up for the deficiency with muscle. A good foul shooter and an aggressive player. KNO Colours were awarded.j R.J.G.

Fowler, J. Tunnicliffe. Seated: S. Keenlyside, R. Dade, G. Lee, D. Stelck. BADMINTON Badminton has enjoyed a welcome popularity this year as a school sport. In order to play in the Public School League it was necessary to join forces with St. Anne's rather than our usual allies, Norfolk House, who were unable to raise a team. All matches were played at home in order to minimize the prob- lems of transporting teams from two schools. Consequently many sup- porters came along to watch and, subsequently, play. As a result of many requests Badminton has now been added to the long list of summer sports, and enjoys year-round popularity. This has been shown by the number of entries in the school tournament. Inci- dentally, the School team has raised its standing from last to fifth in the P.S.L. results. Many thanks are due to Gonsidine I, who organized the scorekeep- ing, to George Lee, who, as well as winning many games, provided a running commentary which nobody could elucidate, and to Dade, who kept everybody smiling.

Herr. Seated: M. MacEwing, B. Carter, D. Harding, G. Lee. VOLLEYBALL Volleyball has been quite popular in its final term, as a six-a-side tournament of nine teams was organized. This tournament was bitterly contested by all concerned and thoroughly enjoyed. Earlier in the term a team of nine Prefects fConduit fCapt.j , Duthie, Meeker I, Goorevitches I and II, Grove, Tolman, Brinton I and Grumbachj beat a,Sixth Form representative team fHarding QCapt.j , Purcell, Hughes, Lee II, Sladen, Rockwell, Johanson, Seibert and Wongj in a three-game series. The games, played after Prep., saw the supporters' favourites emerge second-best. As a major and minor sport Volleyball has been, again, extremely enjoyable. Our thanks go to Mr. Pollard, who succeeded in transform- ing the volleyballers from a group of wrestling playboys into a team which prided itself on not being a push-over for any challenger. David G. Harding, Captain 43 SCUBA CLUB Scuba diving in the School used to be represented by one of those niches occupied by the chosen few. During the past year, however, it has grown in popularity, and now boasts over twenty-five qualified divers. Fewer candidates than usual are taking lessons, but this is prob- ably the result of various pressures, medical and academic. Weekend diving has given the Club the opportunity of seeking new areas further afield, and at present we are obtaining information on wrecks in the area, in the hope that we will find much of historical interest land, perhaps, the odd gold ingotlj. In spite of the bad winter many divers were in the sea all the year round and are now enjoying Scuba as a new option in the summer sports programme. P.G.G. SKI-ING Owing to limitations imposed upon us by the winter sports pro- gramme, we found ourselves able to make only two trips this year. In contrast to previous years, we ski-ed at Forbidden Plateau, whereas previously Mt. Whistler had been our normal venue. I think the decision to Ski Island was a wise one, particularly in View of the limited time we had available to us. Certainly the Plateau may be a trifle limiting to the good skier, although the spectacle of lXiIr. Gardiner hurtling down the slope in erratic windmills can, at least, be illuminating. I am pleased to be able to report that there is absolutely no founda- tion in the rumour that the Staff Racing Team Qheaded by Mr. Bar- berj will challenge the boys in the near future.

SAILING CLUB This year the Sailing Club came of age. Sailing was recognized as a full-time sports activity, headquarters were established at the Oak Bay lXfIarina and, for the first time in the School,s history, a Sailing Team represented the School in the Independent Schools' Regatta. The relocation reduced the travelling distance considerably and in addition enabled us to rent four Flying Juniorsl' and two Aquacats,' as well as providing us with a more constant fand gustyj wind. The time spent rigging and unrigging was considerably reduced, since the boats are already in the water, but the increased sailing time and the more eflicient aspects of the operation have, necessarily, done away with the rather more casual Cordova Bay days, and the older mem- bers of the sailing group are sometimes heard to reminisce nostalgic- all ! Sailing started as soon as the boys returned in September and con- tinued until the afternoon light failed in November. The winter was spent, as usual, in repairing, sanding and repainting the boats, and summer sailing was resumed in April, with over sixty boys involved. To help cope with this greatly expanded membership, Brown, Dennis and Yardley moored their boats at the Marina and Brinton I sold his Sabot to the School. The Club has, therefore, a fleet of six sabot-type 45 boats for initial training and for first attempts at skippering, and all the boys have either crewed in or skippered the bigger Flying Juniors and Cats.', In addition the Club has been fortunate in obtaining the use of Mr. Teagle's Penguin again this year, and the Headmaster very kindly lent his fishing boat for use as a much-needed 'ccrash boat. Theoretically, therefore, there have been sixteen boats available for use, but damage and running repairsf on one memorable day we sank three boatsl have reduced the operational level to about twelve at any one time. The biggest problem, that of transportation, was overcome in the summer term, when a parent very kindly made a gift of funds to the School for the purchase of an Econoline mini-bus. In the three weeks of operation the bus has already logged 1,200 miles, and has been to Long Beach and Vancouver, as well as being used in the daily trans- portation of the Club to the Marina. It has proved to be a most popu- lar addition to the school facilities, and the grateful thanks of the Sail- ing Club are extended to this anonymous benefactor. The Club has set its sights on obtaining four Davidson Flying Juniors for next year. For obvious reasons rental facilities are not en- tirely satisfactory-many times the crews designated to a boat have found, on arrival, that their boat has already been rented out and is at sea. The Club is extremely grateful to Mr. Mayhew and the staff at the Oak Bay Rentals for their co-operation and the favourable terms we have enjoyed, but cold, hard dollar values indicate that well over the cost of half a Flying Junior has been spent on one term's rentals alone. In addition, if the School is to continue to compete we must be able to host a few Regattas ourselves. The Club is open to suggestions and f or offers of financial assistance. Finally, the improved sailing conditions, and, especially, the more constant presence of wind in Oak Bay have improved the boat- handling capabilities of every club member. That is not to say that the more knowledgeable members do not still have their heart-sinking moments as Chatroop pulls away in the hydroplane, or when a boy skippers a boat for the first time. The strong winds meant frequent capsizings at first, but these were soon avoided when the water tem- perature was experienced at first hand. It is sad to say goodbye to the last of the founding members of the Club, and we all wish Duthie and Brinton I the best of luck in their respective careers. INDEPENDENT SCHOOLS SAILING REGATTA Tentatively the Club had indicated that it might participate in the Annual Regatta hosted by St. George's at the Royal Vancouver Yacht Club on May 24th. Training in the Flying Juniors at Oak Bay went well enough for us to feel that the Club would be justified in sending three crews to represent the School. The skippers selected were Duthie, Brinton I and Britten, and they in turn selected their own crews. Since the boys would be spending upwards of six hours cooped up in their small boats, without much movement and probably in extreme dis- 46 comfort, compatibility of temperament as well as sailing ability had to be taken into consideration. Copeland, Brinton II and Venables were chosen, and Dennis and Heffernan were taken as spares, in order to gain experience. The team went over on Saturday and spent the evening touring the facilities of the Hollyburn Country Club and the Hollyburn Sailing Club, both of which impressed everyone considerably. The sight of over 150 Sabots in serried ranks made us all very envious. Much useful information was obtained, which will certainly benefit next year's operations. On the Sunday the four Schools assembled, and the first race was run in very light airs. Twelve Flying Juniors, three from each School, took part in each of the three races, and University School obtained an overall third place, behind Shawnigan and St. Ceorge's. Britten achieved the distinction of winning the Hrst race which the School had ever entered, and Duthie, after a very disappointing start, finished a fine third in the last race, which was run in a fresh wind of 15 knots. None of our crews placed lower than ninth and everyone learnt a great deal from his experiences. One of the most encouraging aspects of the team's performance was the extreme youthfulness of the group. Apart from Duthie and Brinton I, who will be leaving after three years in the Club, everyone else is below Grade X, with three in Grade VIII. This augurs well for the future of competitive sailing in the School. The results of the Regatta were sufficiently promising for two fur- ther fixtures to be arranged, one at Oak Bay, the second with Brent- wood fawayl. These results perforce will have to be reported in 'fStop Press, if they are available in time. BOAT-BUILDING This year Cornwall completed his boat UD, and the addition of another crash boat in the last half of the term has been most wel- come. The increase in membership has necessarily reduced the amount of time available for supervising and assisting the boys building boats. Also the experience of building six Sabots and seeing only two remain at the School has proved to be very disheartening. The result has been that boys have been discouraged from building boats on their own unless they have sufhcient motivation and skill to work virtually on their own. Mr. Salmon very kindly gave of his time and skills in com- ing to the School on several occasions to help the two Sabot builders, Head and Wiley, to complete their efforts. As yet neither boat looks likely to be completed this term, which is very disappointing but not unexpected. Facilities such as tools and space have been available, and it has been up to the individual concerned to give up some of his ex- tensive leave to complete the job satisfactorily. Shanaman has done a good job looking after the boat-room tools, a task that has been very thankless and at times disheartening. Witliout his assistance many more tools would have been lost and damaged. Since sailors must be able to maintain their boats, this side of sailing is essential, and it also provides opportunities for learning some very 47 worthwhile woodworking skills. As yet, too few boys are willing to give up some of their spare time to this important aspect of the sailing programme. In the past we have proved that a Sabot can be easily built in one term, and, since these boats now cost nearly 3300, the S60 outlay on wood and the cost of a sail C3505 can make this enterprise a profitable one. All that is needed is determination and some very rudimentary skills. M.A.W.

On Sports Day, after a cloudy morning the afternoon was sunny and pleasant. The sports were carried out with the usual eHiciency under the direction of Mr. Weston and Mr. Harlow, assisted by prac- tically everyone on the Faculty. While only one record was set, com- petition was extremely keen, and the excitement, particularly during the relays, was always high. At the conclusion of the sports, Mrs. A. Etheridge, mother of Nicholas, who graduated from the School with distinction in 1961, graciously presented the awards, and then accepted a bouquet pre- sented by Henry Chatroop, the youngest boarder in the School. Tea followed, and yet another Sports Day came to a happy conclusion. The Sports Day results were as follows: OPEN 100 Yards CSt. Luke's Cupjz 1. McDonald CBOJ f10.7s.lg 2. Rockwell CBaJ, 3.

H.M. TRACK AND FIELD RECORDS fto June 19695 We thank Messrs. Brian Smith and W. R. G. Wenman for pointing out some discrepancies in our Relay quotations : the matter is under investigation.

CROSS COUNTRY Owing to the severity of the winter very little training was possible before the Independent School Championship, which this year was held at Brentwood. In both Junior and Senior races we finished in third place, St. George's having been stricken with a 'flu epidemic and being unable to raise a team. Despite some creditable individual performances, par- ticularly by Johanson, we were outclassed by the team efforts of Shaw- nigan and Brentwood. In School cross country the Senior and Junior races were postponed until the Summer Term, to allow completion of the Rugby fixtures. In 52 the Senior event Johanson and Smith led the field from the start. Only a few yards separated the two runners until the final gruelling ascent of Mount Tolmie, where Johanson's pounding stride proved decisive. Smith, with his easy, almost languid style, finished comfortably in second place. Michaud,s running was perhaps the most remarkable achievement. Still only fourteen, he finished third in the Senior event, having two days earlier found little difliculty in winning the Junior race by a handsome margin. The results were as follows: Senior-1, Johanson CBaj5 2, Smith QBOQ, 3, Michaud Junior- 1, Michaud g 2, McLean QBOD 5 3, Wiley QBOD. - gg V QA, - , QL-'wifi if Vw- 'ilif iff, 'ff S - ' -' - '- -, K . .-'-we '11 ', 4 , ' -.

Finally we managed to acquire lkiajor W. H. O. Morris, of the Canadian Scottish, to fill that position. This year marked the end of all the more colourful spectacles on Inspection Day, with the exception of Drill, which was to be in itself very short. Fortunately we were able to obtain the expert services of the N.C.O.s of the Queen's Own Rifles to teach us the new proce- dures. The inspection again took place in the summer term, and was, as usual. a success. The Parade lacked the customary lNIock Battle, Cere- monial Band Display and such, but the foot-drill reached a very high standard. IVe had started late, once more, but were able to bring our- selves up to a highly respectable showing on Inspection Day. The re- viewing ofificer was Lt.-Col. Marsaw, of the Queen's Own Rifles. Stick Men on parade were lNfIcLean for the Company and M. Briggs for the Band, while P. Woo of the Guard received an Honour- able Mention. The competition was so rugged, especially where the Band was concerned, that a great number of Cadets deserved mention. For the Platoon Cup it was again No. 2 Platoon fLt. D. Goorevitch Platoon Commanderj. Their work is to be commended. It was unfortunate that Drill had to be our only aspect, except for Recreational Shooting, which has improved considerably in the last two years. IiVe were unable to arrange any trips to Albert Head be- cause of our acute shortage of time. Our thanks go to a great many people for their help and encourage- ment. YVe particularly thank lNIajor Morris, Lt. D. B. Camp and Mr. Pollard in the Orderly Room, and Mr. Kenward in the Shooting Range. As usual, the Matrons worked day in and day out to help with the uniforms. Special congratulations must be given to Tunnicliffe and his Quartermaster's Staff for working all hours to ensure that the once shabby state of attire should turn out well fas it did on Inspection Dayl. And first and foremost we must thank the N.C.O.s of the First Battalion of the Queen's Own Rifles, who were instrumental in the transformation of a shambles into a well-trained Company. The Roll was 125, and the Cadet Staff was as follows: Captain D. Goorevitch fC.O. and Adjutantj Lt. R. Dade CII ifcj W.O. W. Keil fC.S.M.j Drum lX:Iajor R. Miller Lead Drummer Sgt. D.

Coorevitch, Captain QAdjutantl. SHOCTING The Team entered the Brigadier Adam Trophy Competition, but has been handicapped where entry for other major competitions has been concerned by damage to rifles and unwarrantable interference with sights on the part of a minority. The results of the School v. Shawnigan Lake match are unavailable for printing at this time. Standards have approximately equalled those of last year. Of the Cadets who tried for their Qualification Badges, twenty-five achieved Marksman standing fcrossed rifles and crownj, forty First Class fcrossed riflesj and eighteen Second Class. Mr. Kenwardls strict discipline on the firing range has ensured that the Cadets have learnt how to handle and respect their weapons. This will aid many of the Cadets in their future conduct with firearms. The tradition of awarding Shooting Buttons every second week to the best shots was resumed this year. The awards were won by: Senior- Singleton C3j, Dade Qlj, Goorevitch II ill, Payne fll Intermediate -Vallance f5l, Lougheed Qll Junior-MacEwing CZD, Smillie QQD, Scrimes II fll, Wilson flj The Shooting Team was as follows: D. A. Singleton CCaptainl P. Smillie R. Dade D. A. Stelck W. H. Hope M. Tunnicliffe W. C. Logan S. B. Vallance R. B. Miller Interest throughout the School was increased by the donation of a Trophy for the over-all best shot of the year by Mr. and Mrs. Cousens fSingleton is the current winnerl. More students seem to be looking to the sport, and when the Club is able to accommodate more members and has acquired better rifles our standards will be raised to quite a respectable height. D. A. Singleton, Captain. 55 THE BAND This year the Band has emulated the high standard of co-operation evident throughout the Corps. Its members put their best foot forward and worked hard under difficult conditions. I would like to extend my thanks, on their behalf, to the Queen,s Own Rifles for their much-appreciated help: we hope that they will return to us next year. NYe would also like to thank Mr. Camp for his assistance, and to congratulate Michael Briggs on his winning the Band Stick. Rodney B. Miller, Drum Major THE ART RCJOM It has become increasingly obvious that the standard of Art is higher now at all grade levels than ever before. This applies not only to our own School but to all others, and to the Universities as well. There is a stronger interest in Art generally, and more and more people are looking to it to fill a need within themselves. We have seen good examples of this in our visits to local galleries in the past year, the culmination being, perhaps, a show put on recently, at the Victoria Art Gallery, by students of the University of Victoria. Mr. jack Shadbolt, who officially opened it, called it the best collection of Art by students seen anywhere. All this is very reassuring, and we at University School welcome more and more Art, for it is our impression that the more we are sub- ject to its influences, the more we feel compelled, as students, to get our own thoughts and feelings down on paper. C.M.G.B. PROJECTION CLUB This year the Projection Club experienced a large number of changes, the most significant of which was, of course, the addition of a new projector. After a series of major breakdowns it was decided that the old ma- chine had served its time and the new one was purchased. Also, in an effort to reduce wear and tear on the new machine a permanent pro- jection was prepared and set aside for that purpose only. With these problems set aside, the Club proceeded to show what we hope was a good all-round selection of films. My special thanks go to the film crew, consisting of R. I. Boon, R. D. Brinton. D. D. Cornwall. C. lNI. Dykes, NI. lNfIacEwing, D. L. Middleton. B. Stewart, G. 0. Tolman, lNf. Tunnicliffe and S. B. Yallanceg and. of course, we are all in debt to lNIr. Hinton for his con- tinuing assistance. Finally, I would like to wish next year's crew the very best of luck. John F. Duthie, President 56 CHESS CLUB The Chess Club was revived this year, as the result of many requests from existing good players and beginners. Meetings took place in the Library, but these seemed to go on later and later every week, and finally the venue had to be changed. Although the Club seems to have died a natural death this term, it will, no doubt, return in the dark evenings of the winter-presided over once again, we hope, by Gaither I, gesticulating wildly, shrieking in Spanish and occasionally hitting the roof in his exasperation. P.C.G. TAVlV Space is expensive, but we have at last found room for the inclusion of just a few of the innumerable original compositions appearing in Taviv throughout the School Year. Taviv is a c'Student Magazine run entirely by its own staff, and we thank the Chief Editor, David S. Goorevitch, and his colleagues: The School System Does Not Educate Education should cultivate the imagination. Education should pre- pare students to go out into the world and face life. Education should train the judgment and critical sense. Education should teach the stu- dent to use both his leisure time and his work time to the best degree possible. Education should be interesting. If then the question is asked Is the present school system measuring up? the answer is a resound- ing UNO! A man may be able to explain the difference between fission and fusion, to reel off the Prime Ministers of Canada or the dates of ten 18th century European battles, but he may still be unable to think. Our present school system does not award marks, hence diplomas, to those who can think but to those who can remember. Wlieii the stu- dent goes out into' the world he is expected to think, memory being much less important. He is unable to think because he has not been allowed to think creatively. Education is interesting, but the way the present school system attacks it the interest is lost. One can prove this easily by watching a classroom of students listening to the teacher re- cite facts or formulas. Compare this with the student exploring on his own the world of the microscope, seeing the film on Romeo and fuliet which conveys so much more than hours of reading the text or re- searching the way people lived in the 19th century. If the student's interest is held he will learn, unconsciously if not consciously. lf it is not held he will not learn anything. Interest is held by things that come alive and move, things which are authoritative and up to date. As soon as a text is issued, especially in the sciences, it is out of date. Texts up to ten years out of date are 57 next to useless but are still issued! Audio-visual aids are used sparingly. A few films may be shown, often uninteresting in content, but even so they are absorbed. Facts absorbed through these methods are useful and are usually remembered. Facts learnt and then parrotted out are useless and quickly forgotten. Anyone, given enough time, can learn facts but it is in the field of creative thought where we differ. Some of the most brilliant and creative men this world has produced failed at school, including Einstein, Edison and Churchill. This was because the school did not attempt to teach them to think, but to parrot facts. Advances in technology are so rapid and so revolutionary that no student can hope to prepare himself now for the job he will be doing in fifteen years. Half the children in Grade One now are being pre- pared for jobs that will not exist by the time they are qualified! What happens to all the facts they have learnt? They are useless and there is nothing to take their place because the students will not be allowed to think, to create and to explore. A good education prepares a man to fill any post with credit and to master any subject with ease. In other words, to think. Finally this year's High School Graduates belong to a generation which. thanks to automation and a longer life span, faces unprece- dented amounts of leisure time. What will they do with this time? It is no laughing matter. Even today many people cast about desperately for ways to fill their empty hours. It is the man with the agile and well-furnished mind and an insatiable curiosity who will not find time lies heavily on his hands. Education is directed towards the whole of man,s nature. Perhaps one day the school system will become aware that it is not educating anyone and that campus unrest and the school dropout situation are direct results of an emphasis on facts not creative thought, on boredom not interest and on the masses not on the individual. Roger M. Leeming. The Strangers Some strangers stopped by my gates one day And I, shackled to my secret Wlatched them through the window That separated our worlds. The wind was blowing the yellow leaves Around their feet As they sat by an old oak tree on the side of the road. I looked at them, cold, content, yet free And, still watching, they walked away - And I, shackled to my seat, looked on. David S. Goorevitch. 58 Words I sit and listen for those words Which never come, which never existed. And then I ask myself why should they? I feel them in my heart, but my actions Do not speak the words I want Nor my face bear expressions of hope. One day these words will split my ear And tears of joy will fill my eyes. I hope, I pray, they will come true And I, together here with you, will laugh, Remembering past hopes and loves Until that day Illl sit and wait for words. The sky is blue, the grass is green, The sun shines brightly, searching for love. It has no mate, no friend, no loved one, But it survives, it does not weep, It shines so brightly above the flowered ground On which I lay - still hoping for words. Patrick T. McDermott. The Voyage 'Cheer up, boy, struggle for your future, said my friends. A roar- ing of the airplane became louder and louder. WVe could only see each other's mouths open and close, but could not hear what we said. I would leave for Canada within thirty minutes. The light music and the enthusiastic air hostess brought a great happiness and confidence to me. The plane flying smoothly approached Tokyo. The attractive scenery was too difiicult to be forgotten there and I still feel that I should blame myself for having come to Canada in such a hurry and staying there for only an hour. The cloud reflected the sunshine and looked like a golden fence in front of me. There was quiet in the cabin and there was no distur- bance outside. We seemed to be a great eagle travelling alone towards another great world. Charles S. K. Poon. 59 it 9, Ashes to Ashes, Dust 'co Dust Dreams from Nothingness Time and Space Moon travels and sets Up in the sky Like a diamond. Dreams from Nothingness Life and Death Sun travels and sets In the sky Like a diamond. Life and Death, Points on a circle's circumference As our dreams move And time stands still. Daniel S. Goorevitch. Sleeping The sun is down and there is nothing but a twinkle from a street light. The moon is buried beneath the dark, gloomy mountains of clouds which send a little sprinkle of what? down upon roofs which let the imagination soar into whatever, whatever, until the pleasure over- takes our childish dreams or our well-planned future and gives us the feeling of the wanted, the begged-for security of our beds where none can touch. Then we fall further deep into a sleep. The rain still falls playing a tune of life on our covers but no matter what this wet symphony plays it makes our minds, our tiny minds, ex- plore further into the mysterious future, which gives us nothing but hate and problems of the coming morn and which none want to face. Soon there will be a bit of happiness, night has come and we are asleep. The morning rises and so do we. Nothing but hours remain, there will be no more lonely nights which we must escape to our imagina- tions. As we wake it is . . . yes, finally it is the 20th of June and our -- ? is here. Or is it? Michael McLennan. 60 BARNACLE HOUSE Again our thanks must go to Mr. Wray for his continual concern for our welfare. I know that I speak on behalf of the House in wishing him the best of luck in his new venture. He will be missed by all. Athletically we have fared as well as could be expected. We main- tained our traditional superiority in Rugby by defeating Winslow in a very hard-fought game. Unfortunately in Basketball we placed second: we just missed beating Bolton, who produced a very strong team. In the Cross Country, although we only came second, we were fortunate in producing the winner, Johanson, who set a Hne example for the rest of the House. House spirit has been good, but could have been much better. It must be remembered by all that, to have a winning House, everybody must do his part, not just a few. Many thanks rnust go to the Matrons for their ever-kind support throughout the year, also to our new Nurse, who became a good friend to us all, and someone upon whom we could depend. WVe hope that she will remain many more years in the School. To those returning-I would like to say that next year will offer great possibilities in all aspects of House life. I hope that through the coming year Barnacle will uphold the proud traditions of its past. Trevor C. Conduit, Captain of House. BOLTON HOUSE This year the House started off with a new Housemaster, new Pre- fects and a good number of new boys. Despite these odds we settled down very quickly, and, with the unwavering enthusiasm of Mr. Walsh to aid us, the term was soon under way. The second term was very long and very hard for all concerned, and it must be admitted that we experienced our disappointments. I do think, however,.that in the third term we have managed to raise ourselves to the desired standards, and that the year will be finished successfully. In spite of the drawbacks of the second term, many good things were done. A conference was held with the School Chef, and many improvements were made in the Held of food. Also, a generous exten- sion was made in our Saturday and Sunday leave times. This was, I am sure, a very welcome addition. On the sporting side the House has competed very well. The Rugby was lost to Barnacle, but we won both the Basketball and the Cross Country. Lastly, on behalf of House and Prefects, we would like to thank our Housemaster, Mr. Walsh, our House Tutor, Mr. Gardiner, and the Matrons, all of whom have done a great deal for us. Their efforts have 65 lN1atch, the American West, Wild Life Review and the Christian Science Monitor. Also, one or two of the more outstanding products of the Art Room have been on display during the year, and our thanks are tendered to Mr. Gardiner for dry-mounting some of the more in- teresting photographs of past events, now in the display cases. The day-to-day running of the Library has fallen on the shoulders of a small group of interested Librarians, whose help has been invalu- able. In particular, our thanks are due to our Chief Librarian, Consi- dine I, whose efliciency has sometimes seemed rather merciless to small juniors with long-overdue books! N.G.B.

The Library of Congress system having proved rather more complex 'than practical, the Dewey system was adopted, with considerably greater success. Most of the credit for the completion of this rather tedious task must go to three day-boy Librarians, who were prepared to give their time during the summer vacation: Consi- dine I and Leeming were ably assisted by Reeves Qtaking a brief break, we understand, from house-paintingj. The remainder of the task was completed during the winter term by a variety of Librarians. Acquisitions of new books this year have helped to fill some of the more outstanding gaps, notably in the fields of Science, Fine Arts, His- tory and Canadiana. A subscription to the Book of the Month Club has proved valuable. We must also thank a number of donors, Old Boys and parents, and, particularly, Mr. O. Lovekin of Long Beach for his collection of pre-First World War School Prizes. Subscriptions have been taken out to an increased number of periodicals, notably Paris 61 been very much appreciated. Finally, the passing Prefects leave their best wishes to next year's Staff. John F. Duthie, Captain of House. WINSLOW HOUSE Now completing its sixth year of existence, Winslow has been solidly established, and has become a great pillar of strength to the School, as well as a happy ''home-away-from-home, complete with its own Patcrfamilias, none other than our Mr. Wenman, who has deserved and has well eamed the respect and esteem of all house members throughout the School year. Although we have not been the strongest House in sport, the spirit of sportsmanship has prevailed among all participating members, whether spectators or players, with everyone getting stuck in. Finally, on behalf of the graduating class, we wish many happy and successful years to the House. May it grow in House Spirit every year. Also-the best of luck to those returning: may they carry on our traditions in the future. Wayne E. Keil, Captain of House. HARVEY HOUSE This year in Harvey House has been a happy and successful one. The return to the prefectorial system has played a major role in the smooth running of the House, and the four Prefects, Meeker, D. Singleton, R. Morgan and C. Rainsford, must all take credit for the efficient way they have handled their duties. There has been a keen interest in sport throughout the terms. In the winter Rugby was played with considerable noise and enthusiasm but little success, and in the summer Mr. Wood has given much time and eFfort to the activities of the popular Sailing Club. Other activities which were keenly supported were the Stamp and Chess Clubs, and mention must also be made of the fine model planes of Chatroop and the Monsters of Banks! The Christmas Party was an excellent climax to the long first term. A wonderful assortment of goodies was eagerly devoured, and we are grateful for the generosity of lN1rs. lNeston and Mrs. Sandy, who pro- vided such splendid refreshments. Throughout the year Mrs. Sandy, our House Matron, has worked unceasingly on behalf of the boys, and we are indebted, too, to the work of Mrs. McMillan, whose punctuality and cheerful humour has been a lesson to us all. McLean. who combined consistency in the class room with excel- lence on the games field, was a worthy winner of the Chapman Cup. D.G.W. 66 1 5 . 1 1 3 4 M-.

A last-minute decision had to be made with regard to the Band, and results in this department did not turn out as well as we might have wished. Although many complaints were filed, both in Taviv and Annextra, against music and dates, we believe that the majority was pleased and had an enjoyable evening. No doubt it was a refreshing change of pace from the ordinary schedule. Our special thanks go out to the Dance Committees of both Schools, to those who helped to decorate the hall, to Mr. Timmis and to the long list of Chaperones. David S. Goorevitch. IN MEMORIAM s. B. w. d,ESTERRE Sidney d'Esterre was born in Bermuda. He was a First World War veteran, joining as a Private and rising to the rank of Captain. ln 1920 he joined the staff of University School and served for a year at a very difficult time in the School's history. His stay was short, but he retained a keen interest in the welfare of the boys who had come under him, and he was a frequent visitor at the School over the years. Later on, as part-owner of the Elk Hotel at Comox, he was known as the most gracious of hosts. To the Navy, in particular, he was kind- ness itself, and there are few R.C.N. Qflicers who have not experi- enced his genial hospitality. His interest in people, and especially in young men, was keen. Quietly and unobtrusively he helped many, for he was as generous with his purse as with his interest, and not a few men owe him a deep debt of gratitude. Dusty ffor so he was known to ally died at Comox on June 16th., 1969, aged 85. J. 1. SIMPSON Old Boys will learn with deep regret of the death, on July 17th., of Mr. I. Simpson, M.c., M.A. Cfllasgowj, who joined the Faculty of the School in April, 1924, becoming Headmaster in January, 1930. He left in 1932 to found his own Glenlyon Preparatory School in Oak Bay. He will be remembered with affection not only by the Old Boys of his era at University School, but also by those who followed later from Glenlyon, which in these intervening years has grown to a school of some 170 boys. During the First World War Mr. Simpson served with great distinc- tion, being awarded the Military Cross for gallantiy, and retiring with the rank of Major. As a former Gold Medallist of the University of 69 Glasgow, he was an outstanding mathematician and a most able teacher, but he is, of course, best remembered, by his friends of all ages, for his kindly humour and genuine interest in all those privileged to be under him or to know him as a friend.
