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 Storr, having achieved 25 years of service to the School, has withdrawn to live in Parksville.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

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.
