The rugby team was perhaps the most distinguished the school has ever seen, winning both the B.C. Independent Schools' Championship and the Howard Russell Cup - the Vancouver Island Championship - with an iuibroken string of twenty-six victories. Wihat is more. the team won with style, its speed and fitness and determination repeatedly tritunphing over mere brawn. In track and field, a number of new records were set, while in soccer, cricket, badminton. field hockey and ice hockey, St. Michaels University School teams, while not winning all events, still performed consistently well. IQTU was a year marked also by achievement in art. in drama. in choral music. in debating. and - the Junior School especially - in instrumental music. More significant, however. than the cups and trophies won, and the records set. has been the high level of participation by individuals this past year in worthwhile extra-curricular activities. Scuba diving. shooting, rock climbing. kayaking. trips to sea, siunmer and winter camping, ski trips, cross-country running, and tennis, in addition to team sports, have given youngsters many opportunities to become active and involved and many have done just that. The year was marked also by two new developments which promise to have far-reaching consequences for the future of the school. First, the admission of girls. They have. by their ability and enthusiasm. their loyalty, and sheer zest for living, made St. Michaels University School a happier. better. and more civilized place. Second. the admission of BCTY Scholarship students to the school. Their names should be recorded: Barbara Samson, Laurel Nt-il, Susan Weseen. Judy Johnson, Karen Gustafson, Louis Hildebrandt. Drew Lane, Duncan Stewart, and Geoff Dirks. Chosen from many applicants, they represent widely separate parts of the province: all were pace-Setters in their former sclmols and. at SMU, they have contributed disproportionately both in class and all-around. Louis Hildebrandt. the first BCTV Scholar to graduate, has won a scholarship to Carleton University in Ottawa where he will study industrial design. He will. l am confident, be the first of many BCTV Scholars to win awards to university. To the School Captain. Shawn Costello. and to all the graduates of 1970, my congratulations and thanks. By y0llI' example and leadership you have helped to make this past year one which will long be remembered. john Schaffter, M.A. lcantabl June 1070 Headmaster E3511Pns11?5-1113511745117-5-I1PuavnwuaeuwuaeuaP51:PamP5117-ba1PDa1PDs11P,5JPomG51P51nga1P,511?,5i11?DsJ1751Pnampgnggugmuawugmnamng1:PD31?Da1P,511PD'a1P,511E ggfbJlbdlfl-urlllbJfhdlfbdllbdlbillbiglbdlfbdlb:DILdlbdllbt-IlE:afllibdlfbdEarl'lll':Ell :QQ:d.'lEndlEbdllb0Ibdlfbd'1f5dl fbdlfb En-IIE E Eudlhdllbilbgql E931 lbclil PDQ pq E-dl 150.5 IFUHI Ggu Ibdl 15.51 I.T-'DWI F51 I5-51 gg E151 1?-,51 55 EQ D 1:1 Ba E110 Cl VALEDICTORY SPEECH 5251 I5 Il-:dl is 5:3 B03 Good morning ladies and gentlemen. and students.

Now at professional engineer, he recalled with pride the days when. together with his youthful contemptiraries, he took part in the building of the Chapel, He remarked to me that, as he looks back to that time, he is more amazed than ever that schoolboys should have had the audacity to undertake and complete such an ambitious project. Cer- tainly. as l myself now' recall. there were those who doubted its practicality. But their hesitation wayered when day after day they saw the boys labouring for a cause that had nothing to do with personal gain or individual prestige. The fact is. the builders were instinctively responding to a dream that had captured their minds. They built to the glory of liod. And so it happens that today, when old boys return to the school for a visit. the dream returns also. and with it something of the excitement that orginally accompanied it. On this note of rentiniscence. l hand ov er the care of the Chapel and its services to my successor. the Reverend Terence Davies. l ani sure that under ltls guidance they will continue to prosper. The year that has now passed has been very busy. There were few days not marked by prayer and praise. The Harvest Festival Thanksgiving in October, the Remembrance Service in November, and the Carols in December were all notable events, being well attended and observed with quiet pride and rex ereuce. The Students' Sundays Serv ice, instituted a few years ago, was kindly' organized by the Reverend Terence Davies, 1 and it too was an impressive occasion. jeff Spencer conducted the Service and read the prayers. Linda Nlatuga and Shawn Costello read the lessons. and W im Yanderspek. the Chapel Yerger. preached the ser- mon. The text of his address is appended to this report. For his efforts, and the contribution made by' all who took part in the Service. and for the support and encouragement of chapel prefects Warren Yu and Handy' Schafer. the Chaplain here expresses his thanks.

Blencoe STUDENTS SUNDAY MAY 27, 1979 I SERMON PREACHED WILLEM VANDERSPEK J Spencer. W. Vanderspek, Padre Blencoe, L. Matuga, S. Costello, W. Yu. IN PREPARATION This last September, Neil Paterson and I attempted to climb Washingtons Motmt Rainier. For you not familiar with Mount Rainier, its height of 14,410 feet makes it the 3rd tallest peak in the United States, excluding Alaska. Mount Rainier is probably the Pacific Northwest 's most well-known landmark. It wasn't something we dreamed up overnight and rushed off to do the next day. We didn't just throw a bunch of gear we thought we might need. into a car. and rush off to the mountain. No, It was nothing like that at all. Before we set out on the climb. we spent hours. even days. in preparation. The Motmt Rainier National Park was called to find out when climbers were permitted to climb. We went over the National Weatherboard's two month extended forecast to determine the most favourable time to climb. We also had to take a basic snow and ice climbing course. and receive an above average rating. And after all that. came the hours of preparing food and supplies, and checking and rechecking equipment. Before we could even think of climbing the mountain we had to ensure that we had completed all the preliminary preparations. We had to lay a fotmdation: a strong foundation which we could be confident would not slip from under us, and leave us precariously hanging in uncertainty. You see the climb involved preparing for all the elements and obstacles we might have encounter, including the hardest of obstacles to accept. that being, that we might not reach the top. Preparation, when we think about it, is something we do every day. Wwhether it be preparing for a test. or a game, or even a special event. we are continuously preparing for something. We are laying a foundation on which to build. The stronger and broader the foundation is, the more it will be able to support and carry. Preparing for a test or a game is important, but they are relatively short term events. But taken together, our education, our sports endeavours. our social life: together they are all preparing us for that one great climb knoym as LIFE. Right now most of us are in the preliminary stages of our preparation for life. We are at the foot of the mountain. The top is as high as we are willing to make it, the top is the fulfillment of our ambitions and goals. Like any moimtain. the mountain of life has many routes to the top. and no two people will ever choose the same route. Choosing the route and laying the foundations depend on how we use our opportunities. Here. in this school. we have an opportunity to broaden and strengthen our fotmdation. We have the chance to get a first rate education. Something that will never work against us. The opporttmity is here. But we control the end result, the final outcome lt comes down to each persons' willingness to succeed. to strive for the top. to take the mountain on. It may not always be easy. but we must never despair. for the darkest hour always comes before the dawn. Even when the future looks its bleakest. we must not give up. for we never know what lies just around the next bend. The chances and the opportunities will not always be within reach. so when they are there, we must take them. and make the most of them. We can not sit idly by and watch the opportunities float away. We must add them to the foundation that will carry us through life. There is no such thing as an overnight success. Somewhere along the line the work has to be done. and somewhere down the line awaits the attainment of our goals. Now is the time that we are building our foundation. Now is the time we have to prepare. We cannot afford to waste itg we must make it work for ourselves. To sow the seeds of our fortune on the rocky ground or among the thorns is surely a waste. We must sow our seeds in good soil to reap the benefits: some thirty fold. other sixty fold. and we hope some of us even one hundred fold. val, lu 1 -, vu. 1 'D .

I must give my utmost thanks to Karen Gustafson, who tackled the advertising section by herself, and to Heather MacDonald. my co-editor, who worked throughout the year and organized the Junior School sectiong to Ron Stuart and Martin Davis, who always showed up. but were more interested in making rubber-cement balls: and to Alison Moat for her photography, and the ability of being where the action was. To my advisors, Rev. T. Davies and Mr. P. Gardiner. I give my personal thanks for their effort and patience. .QBQ +A, v 'M' D. Home 3 P .. L v K ' A Q, Fu Y 1 - s R fv-Y.

BOLTON HOUSE I was very honoured to have serv ed as the Captain of Bolton House. This year Bolton obtained an early lead and managed to maintain it throughout the season. Although hardships were experienced toward the completion of the year, the opposition was unable to siupass Bolton 's early efforts. Our swimmers and ruggers deserve special mention for. through their con- vincing victories at the beginning of the season, we were able to hold onto our lead. I would like to give an honourable mention to the girls of Bolton House who added valuable points and a touch of class on the playing field. Special thanks to our Yice-Captain. ,Iamie Ellis. who aided in the planning and organization of sporting events. Our sin- cerest gratitude goes to hlr. Walsh otu' Housemaster. who provided us with the incentive for success through his natural. supportive nature. Lastly. I would like to thank some of otu' House members for their valiant efforts on the playing field: Marianne Anderson. Linda Nlatuga. Mike Barber, Duncan Lee. Terry Ilogue. I'eter Mcliae and Jeremy hllis. I wish my successor and the rest of the House the best of luck in the coming year. R. Schafer BARNACLE HOUSE This year is has been my pleasure to lead Bamacle to yet another third place finish. When the final scores were tallied. Barnacle emerged with 51 112 pointsg trailing Wenman by only 1 U2 points, and Bolton by 4 points. The year started off poorly for all but the tmder I4-'s, who placed second in the swimming competition. In the senior rugby competition the team was unfortunate to place third: losing a hard fought match to Wenman, 16- 12. in the first knock-out round. House spirit took a sudden turn. as we won both the Open and the Jtmior divisions in soccer. and the girls won grass hockey in its premier performance as an inter-house sport. On Sports Day, Barnacle went out in style. placing second in both Junior and Under I6 categories, and winning the open age. Bamacle House athletes also claimed the U:I0 and Open overall in- dividual cups. Although we were unfortunate to finish only third, the spirit and enthusiasm shovm by the house this year was overwhelming. and I thank you all. As always there are some people who deserve special thanks for their help and support throughout the year. In the Junior division I would like to thank: D. Backhouse, Ii. Molineux, B. Peacock and A. Haddad. In the Open and Under lo divisions C. Snape, R. Benson. T. Todesco. R. Frame and G. Wohlgeschaffen deserve mention. Leading Barnacle's first girls were S. Crofton and C. Lambe. lNlr. Goodwin, our patient Housemaster. should also be thanked for his advice and support throughout the year. To both present and future members of the House, I wish the best of success and good fortune next year and in all the years to come. Thank you all, W. Vanderspek Modest as usual. Randy! for-x:r.,,... fi W'-X But it's such a good Grad. photo.I Now let's get this straight WENMAN HOUSE Thi- past year has been a successful one for Wenman House. Overall, we placed second. with both Linder-I-fs and Girls winning their respectixe dixisions. 'l'he year started on an off-note with a third-place finish in the Inter-House Swim Meet. but we quickly rebounded to win the rugby competition. In the competitions that followed we did not do as well as expected, but wc managed to keep the other Houses within striking distance. Un Sports Day. the final event of the year. we dominated ex ery diyision. won the meet. and secured our second place finish. On behalf of all thc House members. I would like to thank Mr. Nlclntyrc for his support throughout the year. I would also like to express my personal thanks to my assistant. jeff Spencer, and to the House prcfects. Clarende Duby. Iloss lNIacI.ean, and 'I'ed Watson, who helped me throughout the year. Congratulations must go to Dave Achtem, Don Fen- nerty. Heather Mcllonald, and Doug Waldie for their out- standing performances. Finally. I would like to wish the best of luck to next year's Wenman House Captain. and I hope he will enjoy running the Honse as much as I have. J. Marsden WINSLOW HOUSE This year had its ups and downs for Winslow House. The first part of the year had the ups in the success of the House in the Swim Meet. and of course. in the introduction of girls to the House. The rest of the year held the downs in that the number of members and some of the spirit was lacking. which somewhat handicapped us. On behalf of the House, I would like to thank hflr. jones for his support and encouragement throughout the course of the year. I would also like to thank my vice-captain. Warren Yu. and Robert Lf-Noury for their help throughout the year. Finally, I would like to thank the rest of the members for their support, especially Neil Antolin. Jeff Bray. Shawn Costello, Simon Gough and Susan Kemble. Next year should be an interesting one. and I would therefore like to wish my successor the best of luck in the coming year. N . Paterson Talking of comings and goings! INTERNATIONAL HOUSE This year saw the coming and going of both students and staff in International House. The House, as its name suggests, was composed of students from various parts of the world: and represented a wide spectrum of Canadians. 1 The beginning of the year followed the usual syndrome of confusion. Things soon settled down and the boys soon got along well together. As is always the case. International House formed the nucleus of boarding life with its students participating in everything from the Waterloo Mathematics Contest to the Howard Russell Cup rugby final. as well as all phases of other extracurricular activities. Our thanks and best wishes to lVl.r. Parsons. our housemaster, who joined us in October. and will be enjoying the sunny shores of the Bahamas next year. Good luck and best wishes to all those returning and those leaving. W . Vanderspek House Prefect Memory is the diary that we all carry about with us. Oscar Wilde SCHOOL HOUSE T' ,. ,. ' 2 ' 33 5.

Some lvl students from all parts of the world have learnt to live together. tolerating each others' faults. but sharing in each others' successes both on and off the games' field. Many of our boys have excelled themselves. representing the School in a wide range of games and activities. Schafer. Fennerty . and Wohlgeschaffen. G. were members of the winning Howard Russell Rugby Team, while Benson. R. played for the 2nd XY. Eighteen boys from grades 8 and 0 played for either the junior Colts or the Junior. Jtmior Colts. Robson. D.. K. Molinetu. S. Benson. and E. Uliver all played for the Under 15 Soccer XI. K. Nlolineuv was also a member of the Cross-Country team. li. Wohlgeschaffen. S. Benson. R. Laboda and A. Gerard all represented us in the Cricket XI. D. Fennerty and R. Benson did particularly well in Track and Field. Don Fennerty broke the City record in the 4-UU m Hurdles. With Tennis and Swimming some 30 School House boys played for the School. A really good turnout. Participation by the students in other activities has also been good. Scuba diving has probably proved the most successful. Skiing at week-ends under Mr. Piete's kind and efficient organization has been very popular with the Boarders and we are grateful again for this opportunity to encourage our Boarders to venture outside Victoria. Some enjoyed camping at Sidney Island as well as at Long Beach on the West Coast. Ian Petrak, Robert Nicholls and john Stigger were all awarded Diving Certificates. having completed their Scuba Course. ,Ion Griffin has been diving regularly lhaving already got his cert. P: and the Housemasters have greatly appreciated some fruits from the ocean: especially the abolone. We even had some crab after Stuart Wood and Sean Tahirali had spent a week-end on llr. Woods Cruiser. Although it may begin to sound as if the boys have joined a Country Club. in fact. the activity helps to ensure they work hard at their academics and the Inter-Mural pursuits of the School. Some boys are lucky if they see home more than once a year. Before Christmas the House Dorms all performed very successfully in a wide variety of playlets and skits. which were produced by the boys themselves and enjoyed immensely by the rest of the House. The smaller boys in Grade 6 and T were particularly good and en- thusiasticg but the most amusing skits were probably those by grades 8 and 9. Film shows. on most Thursdays. covered a wide and varied selection of topics and were much appreciated by the students. Special Thanks to Mr. Bevan Grant and Mr. Chris Considine who supported the House with their enthusiasm and interest. Their patience and undoubted abilities made the year very worthwhile. My gratitude also to the Prefects who gave valuable service and. I'm sure, leamt a great deal about handling students in a residential situation. ,IJ . Goodwin Housemaster: Mr. JJ. Goodwin. Assistants: Mr. C. Considine. Mr. B. Grant. Prefects: R. Benson. R. Schafer. D. Fennerty. G. Wohlgeschaffen. .1 .--so-Q 2 i HARVEY HOUSE GIRLS In September none of us knew what to expect. It was impossible to foresee the remarkable difference girls would make to Harvey House. Never have our tinies had so much help and sisterly advice. and new-z fm-.e young girls had to much criticism tu wal- it ith. Nevertheless. it has worked. and worked well. Sixteen young people with diverse personalities. and from many tlil'i'-Irent walks of life. have shown that with honesty. patience and caring, it is possible to live in harmony and make a success of school life in the boarding situation. There have been parties: - and work. Football games: - and work. Hockey games: - and work. Track meets: - and work. - and work. - and work! Well. no one said it would be easy ! My thanks to Clarende and Barbara. two superb prefects. lVlrs. Creek. Mrs. Wenman. Ms. Nation. you have been most kind and patient. I thank you too, most sincerely.

DRAMA I NEVER SAW ANOTHER BUTTERFLY - APRIL 20 AND 21 That it was possible to stage a major play this year reflects the dedication and the enthusiasm of all the cast, and the crew. who behind and in front of the scenes worked selflessly together to achieve a first class production. A It seems that no 3'-lay can open without last minute crises to tax the endurance of a tired cast, and this year was no ext-eption. Two days prior to opening night the newly constructed dimmer-board ceased to function .ani .1 replacement had to be sought. Sickness and 'flu threatened to diminish the cast, but all were alflt- in surmount these problems. The atmosphere of Jewish ghetto during the war was admirably recaptured by the consistent in- terpretation of all the actors and actresses. Hali Davies played the major role as Raja, a young girl representing a link between her past and present. Barbara Samson confidently depicted an assured yet sympathetic teacher. who imparts hope and reassurance to the children, played by Greg Eng, Doug F riesen, Ben Butterfield and Timothy Williams. Shawn Costello handled the role of Raja's boyfriend, Honza, with authority and sensitivity. In the family unit, Clarende Duby, as the mother. and Peter MacRae as the father. portrayed their characters very convincingly, supported ably by Tom Watson who rendered a fine interpretation of Pavel, a young and idealistic son. As the Rabbi, Gary Wohlgeschaffen showed great command of language and atmosphere, while Karen Gustaffson produced a creditable performance as Aunt Vera. The two minor. but by no means unimportant roles in the production were played by Linda Matuga and Jill Hughes. In retrospect, there were many areas which could have been more effective, but a foundation has been laid this year that augurs well for the future years. Much was learned by all concerned with this play, and. as should be the case with all learning, it was exhausting - but fun? R. Richards xiii Fw, 1 1 s 6 Q 2 -.. aiu- Q 3 F DEBATING REPORT THE MEDIA Inter-School Debates continued on Cable Ten television under the production guidance of host Jeff Spencer. Assisting in the production was Chris McElroy who shared the Winifred Scott Bursary with Jeff. presented for the first time by the Debate and Speech Association of B.C. for outstanding promotion of debating outside the existing tournaments. YOUTH PARLIAMENT SMU had a very hardworking member of the British Columbia Youth Parliament in Chris McElroy. He was congratulated for his hard work and subsequent appointment to a cabinet post. OUR THANKS Finally the SMU debaters wish to thank the two debating coaches who have worked so hard and diligently for debating in the school. Reverend Davies and Mr. Keil have our gratitude for the many lunch hour. late evening and early morning meetings and the advice and encouragement given to the team. ,I . Spencer TOURNAMENTS The success of the junior and senior debating teams varied widely during the season. Our first competition was the Ravenhurst Island Tournament. Our senior team won the senior team trophy with all its members placing well in the individual standings. Russell Benson came eighth, Barbara Samson came seventh overall and second in the novice category, just missing a chance to represent B.C. in the Western Canada Debating Tournament. Shawn Costello received the Runner-up award in the negative category while Captain Jeff Spencer was awarded top negative honours. Jeff and Shawn went on to perform a victorious exhibition against Victoria High with most of their debating skills being pitted against the hecklers instead of the other debaters. Also figuring prominently in the individual senior standings were Chris Bacon, fifteenth, Tony Blues twenty-first, and Chris McElroy and Brian Wetton twenty-eighth and twenty- ninth respectively. Although the junior team did not figure in the team competition, the individual stan- dings were quite good. Eric Cunningham came eleventh, Chris Hill was twenty- seventh. Duncan Stewart seventeenth and Robert Bures came forty-third out of a field of ninety. The rest of the debating season was riddled with sickness, conflicting interests, absences and lack of preparation. The Newman-Fisa lB.C. Independent Schools Tournamentl was early in the New Year. Two teams suffering from the above complaints made poor showings. Only Shawn Costello and Tony Bures qualified for the provincial Hammarskjold Tournament. The Hammarskjold was equally disappointing. Held the day after the Spring term exams, the tournament yielded little for the SMU team. Debating became a regular part of every Grade Twelve 's timetable with debating class being held once a week. Although the calibre of debating was not very high, experience was gained and fun was had by everyone. The zenith of the class debating season was the Great Inter-Class Challenge '79. Mr. Davies' English class was represented by Chris Bacon and Jeff Spencer, who formed the Opposition against the Government of Clarende Duby and Rob LeNoury from Mr. Penaluna's class. The bill. Canada's symbol should be a dying goose . was defeated and the government was asked to resign. I ll' ST. MICHAELS UNIVERSITY SCHOOL CHOIR In the fall of the year the choir reformed with the addition of several new girls and the inclusion of boys from Grades 8 to 12. With a full complement of fifty voices the choir prepared for the Annual Carol Service in December. A No. 1 choir consisting of 22 selected voices attended a special function in Van- couver, and at the invitation of the Young Presidents' Club presented a program of Christmas music. In the spring the choir diligently prepared a program of secular music which ranged from Orlando di Lassur and Palestrina to twentieth century numbers. A choir trip to Seattle was arranged with concerts given in May at the Bush Independent School, Seattle. and the Seattle University Preparatory Academy. Both programs were well received by appreciative audiences. On the choir's return to Victoria, two evening programs with the junior school were presented to parents and friends. This combined effort proved to be a first in the history of music in the school. The final appearance of the choir occurred during the program of the school 's Speech Day Ceremony. St. Michaels' Choir has plans to continue raising the choral standards in the hope of becoming more visible in the community and contributing to the school 's cultural activities. I. Bradley aa-M 'ls ,ff 'ff 'S if .Q ...ff-xx E 5 W. H THE CO PUTER The school this year moi ed into the electronics age by acquiring its very own lladio Shack computer. The system. although small. is in ex ery respect a fully-fledged computer. lt consists of a typewriter console which also contains the Central Processing L'nit and the folu' thousand byte memory as well as the ancillary electronics. The other components of the system are a Cathode Ray Tube display and a tape drive. used for non-volatile program storage on magnetic tape. The computer at first supported the Level I BASIC language. which although adequate. soon began to seem rather limited. Ac- cordingly. half-way through the year the system was upgraded to contain more memory space and a more advanced version of BASIC. Level ll. This was a great improvement, as an increase in both the size and complexity of programs was made possible. From the very first the computer received a great deal of use. Everyone was fascinated by the new t0y . and there was always a cluster of students around the machine when it was in use. The heavy usage of the computer justified the creation of a special computer room . This room greatly increased the students' access to the computer. and it became a lunch-time haven for a number of dedicated computer programmers. The computer arrived too late for any course of instruction to be set up. although a number of mathematics classes were devoted to learning the basics of its operation. lt is hoped that in the future a distinct course of computing science will be taught. Thanks must go to lN'1r. Blake as the main force behind the initial acquisition of the computer. and as the person who provided encouragement and aid to neophyte computer bugs . M. Davis MY FOOT! xx OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES SKIING This year we tried something different for our January ski week. travelling to Jackson Hole, Wyoming for a ten-day powder-skiing session. We actually experienced their famous champagne powder and had a tremendous time in it! Dru-ing the same week a second group travelled to Vernon. B.C. for an alpine session at Silxer Star. Our usual weekend ski program included seven trips to lVIount Baker, one to Forbidden Plateau and one to Hemlock Valley. CAMPING A series of weekend camping expeditions during the fall and spring offered a variety of activities for students. They ranged from long weekend body-serfing trips to Long Beach through snorkeling. crab-catching and camping at Sidney Island to camping and diving or hiking weekends at East Sooke park or Goldstream. We slept in style in the sleeper-coach. pitched tents, or built hoochies in the trees, as the mood suited. SCUBA This year we qualified two classes of scuba divers. one in the fall term and one in the simimer term. The courses take about six weeks and a lot of hard study and work. Free diving expeditions both from shore and from boats were a regular activity both as an after-school experience and as a day-long or weekend trip. SNORKELING Snorkeling is an activity that is popular both as preliminary training for scuba classes and as a sport in its own right. This year we had a regular Tuesday afternoon snorkeling session as well as several weekend sessions at East Sooke, Saxe Point and, most popular, Sidney Lagoon for crab-catching expeditions. While it is often a toss-up as to who has caught whom. the thrill of catching a large. angry Dunginess crab is not one to be forgotten. T. Piete ,fi F.- -il. J... X15-' N - '45 .

I-IOMEWARD BOUND WITH IOY The whirling snow around him fell, jack Frost nipped at his face. The frigid cold of many years. Was this winters night released. But with kindled hope. he onward pressed. The darkness blurred his very sight, As night around him closed. A faithful man this trapper was. Not even hell his way could bar. For many an hour he boldly marched. Through the blinding snow and spicules. A bright beam of light pierced. It spoke of great warmth and shelter: Haven from the harshest cold. He saw it. smiled. and pilgrimmed with God. K . Wohlgeschaffen AGGRESSION I awoke abruptly to find the darkness of the night creating shadows of apprehension. A film clung to the atmosphere. confining me to my small room. The massiy e oak tree outside my window was lightly silhouetted against the dimness of the sky. l rolled over to the side of my heavy. brass bed. The springs squeaked as I cautiously lifted myself out of it. My warm. quilted housecoat and slippers lay at the foot of my hed. where I had placed them the evening before. Standing there for a moment. I let my eyes grow accustomed to the darkness. I crept to the door. and. gently opening it. peeked through the crack. The coast was clear: no - one else was awake. I slipped across the hall into the workshop and fumbled for the lightswitch. There it was - the weapon I was to perform this evil deed with. It was so big and heavy. Yes. it would get the job done. I carefully' removed it from the shelf and tiptoed hack to my room. I peered about the room. then let my eyes fall upon my NIt'Ill'Ilir face. Uh. he looked so peaceful and trusting. I couldnt commit such a dreadful act upon him. I turned my head and tried to repress the tears I felt. I looked back into the face of my victim: the face that was always smiling. the face I had become accustomed to. the face I had loved. and. I think. still loved. l could not do thisl But I knew I had to do it. A tear rolled down my cheek as I poised the weapon high above my head. No I I rested my arm. No. I won 't do it. not tonight anyhow. It can wait a little longer. But again. I knew it had to be done. It needed to be done tonight. My hands were clutched tightly around the weapon. Again. I raised it above my head. A shiver ran up my spine. and I trembled. I shook my whole body. trying to relax. I stood perfectly still. Everything was deathly silent. I knew this was the moment. I took one last look at my victim. drew in a deep breath. and swiftly brought the weapon down upon his head. It shattered into many pieces. I quickly' picked out the pennies which were mixed in with the broken fragments of my piggy bank. and went to return the hammer to the workshop shelf.

INNOCENTS OF WAR But once guns die they have a soul, and living men take time to stroll the world seems black, without a sung where guns - no, men in death do lie, you try to kill, not man, but gun. When steel is flying 'bout your head and comrades round you fall down dead, and ponder why the blameless die. The guilty almost always live, like ltunps of earth caught in a sieveg the leaders, heads of state don 't fight, while grains of sand fade from the light. Who was that man who lies dead now? He looks so youngg you killed him, how? 'He was a gun and he could kill, his life would mean that I'd lie still.' And when the greed comes to an end. the lucky grains go home, to fend for families who have seen the might of lumps of earth that start the fight. E.

THE END OF THE BEGINNING The wind brushed over the barren plains. picking up dust and blowing it towards the desolate red moim- tains that had been stripped of life many years before. It howled momnfully through the remains of a dead world. From a distant planet the creatures watched the world. the dead world: the world that had once been their home. Their ancestors had travelled to the planet centuries before from a distant star system 8.22 light years away. Their ancestors had settled on the small planet that had lush plant life and plenty of water. The atmospheric conditions suited them perfectly: they settled. prospered and the new world slowly grew. Their civilization slowly perfected itself tmtil even crime was annihilated. But after years of perfect existence the civilization began to deteriorate. lt started to rot from the inside out. It grew feeble. feeble enough to fall before the hatred of a single barbarian. The barbarian was in their midst and the civilization crumbled. The inhabitants started to feel emotions: sorrow. happiness. hatred and love. Hatred overpowered all the emotions. and hatred caused war. The war was quick and violent. and very few escaped. Nearly all those who did travelled homewards. But two beings travelled towards another planet. The planet was larger than the other one and much more beautiful. It had vast oceans and huge land masses. What amazed the beings most of all was its abundance of life. They knew that they had found a home. a home that would never die. As they stepped out of their little craft the two beings took deep breaths of the fresh air that surrounded them. and called the planet - Earth. A. Handley I THE LAST WAVE The last breaths of sunlight were seeking refuge among the white crested waves of the English Channel as a young English fighter pilot walked the last few yards of a dirt path to a deserted beach near Dover. His mind was full. but his train of thought was broken as his foot struck rather painfully on an unnoticed root. He swore softly. but continued. As he reached the first stretch of sand. he paused to take off his shoes and socks and rest his tired feet. After a few minutes. he walked towards the cool water as it slushed and gtugled on an outcrop of rock. It seemed to leave a moustache where the waves stopped and the dry sand began. Upon reaching the moustache. he sat dovm so that the waves would wash over his feet. He gave a sigh as the first cool wave came gurgling in breaking peacefully over his toes. He looked at his watch. It was 7:47. The first wave of bombers should be over any minute now. he thought. He listened carefully. Sure enough he could hear the low-pitched throbbing of the Lancasters. and then behind them. the higher- pitched wail of their fighter escort. He listened to the noise for a long time. imtil the slushing. gurgling noises of the waves overcame it. It was getting dark now and the wind was picking up. He let his mind slip from the planes to the troops in France almost twenty-three miles away. The thought seemed to move him. They were all dying in a war that seemed unending. He wished he could help them. He let one more wave break over his foot before he left. He would remember that wave in the cockpit of his P-4T Thunderbolt that night. It was to be a long night for that young pilot. It was to be his longest. and his last. J. Hughes. Gougi' J P. Tibbetts. FIRST DIVE Just take the plunge, John said, From his cushion in the boat. I stood like a novice, Teeth on edge, hair on end. Looking black as death. No danger! Y0u'll be fine! Just keep your head! A backwards jump. A whoosh, A sea encloses. Hey. I made it! So I didn't sink. I strike a noble pose: All fears of death, begone l Despite the dark. It's more like birth really, But birth backwards, Tumbling around like this Out of line With all of man's horizons, Lost, imposed or real. Hey, itis quiet down here. No wonder fish lack ears And taste for argument. I like what depth discloses, Blowing bubbles as the heart goes thump. I'm in my element: This inner space Sustaining sea Returns both breath and blood, The fluid life in me. As I told John: It's really neat To get the weight off both your feet. S. Thatcher LOST The thick. black smoke from the fire of m g cabin highlighted the glorious smell of the large fragrant ei. ergrci-tis. The forest that frarpe: tiny log cabin was covered with a white blanket of snow. The cold air. that night. was driv of the cabin by the warmth of the snapping fire, spitting sparks uf bark which fell on th 'carpet on the wooden, dusty floor. I was trying to fall into the blackness of sleep to dream offhqwagn summer in July. A cold blast of air shattered a wimlow in the corner of the cabinflextiilglfdhing the small candles that were lighting the single room, and my warm thoughts. Q The fire illuminated the small area aro ' d me, but the rest of thi' room was dark ' e thick molasses, sticking to corners, slowly spilling tow me as the fire sizzledf with the cold air now conquering it. A last dying crackle came from thx , green flame that hadfiievoured the last remaining log, the only means of warmth, and ilgwtiliiisimweather and temperature, theflast hope of life. if This thought struck me like a knife slicing into my skull, chipping away at my brain until it hit a nerve, setting off a time-bomb, exploding with a force that made me fly headlong at the rigid door, bolted with a propped piece of oak so unsturdy, it would give out with any nudge of the wind. And close was the haunting chant of the wolves which echoed off the leafless, white branches of sheer- cliffed mountains, coated with a plaster shimmer, reflecting the light as if they were made of silver. They climbed beyond sight up to the majestic heavens of stars. faintly flowing behind opaque clouds of purple. Although thggwind had whipped the wqoden cabinrikgtayed perched on the frozen land, overrun by the deepifreeze during the crue N d callpuswinter seasons. I flung thedbor open as the knife-like th , hts of ,survival ripped out nerves and veins inside my head. Stumbling out into the sunforsakengiast, a hungry wolf cry very near made my heart rupture with fear. Now the thoughts of warmth igmd siiivival cut deep inside me, and a death march came into my staggering run. The wolf cry gave a signal of starvation, lygingfbr prey. An illusion of my goose- pimpled face, lascerated by the masticating ivory in the wolklifmouthi flashed past my eyes. The unfamiliarity soon crept into my feet as the knitted undergrowth banded my legs into its quilted S3 pattern. The thought of warrtfflt escaped the prison mf my collapsing brain, as the victims'collage s hurled into my short-circuiting brain. An elastic pull flung me at the snowy ground, pulled down lime a metal object attracted to a magrlet far beneath the snow. Destruction swept through a shrieking heart, longing to survive this agonigiig death of being devoured exactly as that log had been devoured, caught in the devil's angelicgclasp called fire. As IItilI'Il6d my red face. a charging grey flash, like that of a cobra's forked tongue, came with a supernatural leap. Quickly a black unconsciousness, far blacker than when dreaming of July, smashed into me. f i 'if . A glorious warmth invaded as a wave of light came over me. The death march had faded and a glorious melody repaired my damaged tissues. My eyes opened as footsteps rang through ,my ear drums with a beat that interwove with the melodic chirps of far-off birds and a bases of churned gurgling from the crisp mellow water melting with the sun's rays, a sharp stilettqiaf heat. The con- tinued rhythm, now louder as these footsteps drew closer, was interrupted by the murmur of gruff himtan voices, twisting words through the maze of vocabulary, pondering deeply of that reviving body tied into the prison of half-sleeping, half-dreaming. Those two hunters with blood drenched shirts stared at me. Those two animal-like killers would never know that the wolf, lnow invisible, trying to avoid the alien morning! had been my guardian that cold and destructive night. I chuckled as I thought, Who was the beast and who was the animal? Who was the hunter and who was the hun- ted 'f T. Williams. fi If A. Chiu. .ff 1 . 1 . 1 ,- f - r 1 LOST Y -, ,HL 1-L L 1..'

Cunningham INTO YOUR HEAD Life beats an angry tempo. My heart, to a drum, My heartblood lives, like a thousand lives, But my mind knows not where it came from. Deep inside the inner recess, Dark and hardened fingers probe: Like the memory of life, fails to confess, And blankets my mind from rhymes untold. Something crawls deep, prying, Pulling with tissue-like claws, My lifeblood comes streaming, To enter the world through my jaws. But after my mind Has drained all it's strength, My inner reserves, horses do they growg Calories constuned, So memorial fingers are usable, And thoughts can they echo. M. Stephen .

They twanged. stretched. vibrated. These disturbing noises were offset by the aura of confidence emitted by the strong nylon cord. Using the lilies he could communicate with the bowl. He gazed into its cavity as it lazily swayed. Where the lines joined there was obvious tension and stress: he wisely ignored these developments for he had no control over them. Perhaps the view past his legs would be more reassuring. Was that the ground '.' He was not sure. He was overwhelmed with dizziness and had lost his sense of balance. Gravity seemingly had no effect. Up was down. Directions were confused. It was a weightless situation. But the view past his legs was reassuring. Parallel rows of brown grain seemed to sweep away. He traced one with a foot. but the veneer design plowed on out of reach. The tableau was serene - a tear came to his eye. Was it a drop of emotion? Unlikely. The wind was the probable cause. it massaged as it rushed by. but annoyed the eyes. He appeared to be immobile in utopia but the end of his flight had arrived. The wind buffeted mercilessly. His legs crumpled iuider the impact as his body flattened into the wood. The housewife grinned savagely as she completed her disciplined follow-through. Her weapon swatted the air. raising dust lthat did not hamper her visionl. The dust swirled in the eddying drafts while the swatter slashed viciously. eager to butcher and slay. However. it was denied the pleasure of a coup de grace. Her initial blow had been sufficient. Disappointed she scorned the crushed carcass of the fly pasted to the stained cedar ceiling. embedded in the delicate brown grain. A limb remained on the knot where the fly had squatted. looking from the focal point of twine that secured a macrame hanging basket to the roof. into the silky green moss planted in the bowl below. The female reached out to stop the basket swinging and to settle the agitated twine. Pity. she thought sadistically. the insect had ruined the peaceful atmosphere of her conservatory. .l. Ellis Moat The Paper-Mills Wordsworth In The Modern Age l wandered through the deatlt-bluvk cloud That swamps and chokes the vales and hills. When I detected through the shroud. A mass of belehing paper-mills: Beside the bog of lJ.lJ.'l'.'s. Causing the world to cough and wheeze. Continuous as the trees that grew, And flourished when the world was green, They massacred all birds that flew For miles. And just one bird was seen, Smeared with oil. afloat in ooze. Its heart pressed out by htmian shoes. The lights around them leered: they said That progress had no end in sight . No end until the earth was dead, And man a phantom in the night. I stared - and stared - oft came the thought, What wealth this filth to one man brought. For oft, when at his desk he sits, His ulcer in a element mood, He daydreams of his putrid pits Of death and foulness, vile and lewd. And then his mind with money fills. And plans a few more paper-mills. D. Wingrove. C. Turner. DAY V.S. NIGHT In a never-ending race, Night chases day And day follows night. Like runners, They rally.

During the past year the Second XY has performed exceptionally well.

The team fought hard. and ended up tied for third place along with Lambrick High School. During the semi-finals we were beaten by lisquimalt High who then went on to the finals. Considering that the team was made up largely of Grade XI students did well to attain its final standing. l'd like to thank llr. Wennian. our coach. for the enthusiasm and expertise that he provided. Above all I would like to thank the members of my team, who gave all they had. up until the final whistle of our last game. D. Wohlgeschaffen TTHRD XV The Third XY had quite a good season this year. We were lueky to have mostly experienced players. and it eertainly showed in the style of rugby played. The team lost rather heavily in the first matches against Brentwood and St. George 's. but came back to drub the Shawnigan side twice. In the return matches we lost nar- rowly to St. Georges but managed to hold Brentwood lthe peren- nial powerhousel score- less until the last minute when they broke out and scored a The most memorable occa- sion was Steve Bokor's try from the kick-off against Shawnigan.

FOURTH XV The season was fairly successful for the Fourth XY. Although most players were in- experieneed, they played well in all the matches. The team gained experience and wisdom during the course of the sea- son. We had two wry close games. one against St. Georges, and the other against Shawnigan. both games ending in ties.

The Independent School League was played in the first half of the season and the Colts ended up winning and losing to both Shawnigan Lake School and St. Georges School. Both games against Brentwood College ended in victory for the Colts. The Colts entered the junior High Rugby League in full force. Supported by the experience and newly-gained team spirit, they displayed very fine games against Lake Cowichan, Arbutus. Lands- down. and Lambrick's First XV. The City Final was played against Oak Bay. In this game classical form and sportsmanship was seen from both sides. The final score was 18-0 in our favour, and the surprising victory was enjoyed by the whole team. The team is boimd to say that the results of this season would not have been possible without the fine style of coaching and encouragement of Mr. D. Harlow. B .

Excellent performances were consistantly given by Kevin Blaauw, Simon Gough, and Doug Waldie. The team defeated an older side from Glenlyon, and having lost their first fixture quite decisively to Shawnigan. profited from the experience. and showed great maturity to come back and win their return fixtme. We defeated Brentwood twice in rigorous games, but were defeated by St. Georges in a match for which there was, imfortunately, no return game. Congratulations to all concerned for a fine effort.

The Seniors lGrades X-XIII started the season lacking in unity. confidence. and offensive power. Unfortunately, they dropped the first few encounters with other teams. At the I.S.A. Hockey Tour- nament in January the boys played hard but lost their games to Brentwood 15-2l and St. Georges li- Ol. Unfortunately. the team was short of players. but I must say that the boys who were there gave all they could and made the other teams work very hard to win. As the year progressed. the team gained more confidence. and on March 2, Shawnigan and Brentwood hosted another I.S.A. Hockey Tour- nament. The S.M.U. squad was now at full strength. and ready to avenge themselves. In the first game against Shawnigan lwinners of the first tournamentl. we managed to defeat them in a thrilling and evenly played match 14-3l. In the final. we lost to St. Georges 13-ll. giving the Seniors a well- deserved second-place finish. The junior team. on the other hand. started out with confidence and ability. which carried them impressively throughout the season. They played each game with intensity and presented the opposition with a well- organized offence and. at times. an im- permeable defense. The Junior team remained tmdefeated in the season. and clearly won the Independent Schools League Junior Record S.lW'l.U. vs Glenlyon 3-2 vs Brentwood T-Z2 vs Glenlyon 5-3 vs Shawnigan tv-U D.

L-1' 3' 'N iff' The Under-14 basketball season started in mid-February at the Independent Schools Tournament, hosted by Shawnigan. In our first game, against a well-seasoned Shawnigan team, and despite the valiant efforts of the whole team, we fell behind early and lost the game BT-28. The second game was much closer, and with ten-point showings by Brian Kliman and David Backhouse. we came from behind to beat St. Georges 28-22. During the City League, in which we participated for the first time, we played. and won seven games. We cruised to victory over Central, Oak Bay, Arbutus, Lambrick and Reynolds. In the play-offs, we defeated Arbutus again, and went into the Finals against Harboiu' View. This was the toughest game all season, and with a fine team effort, we hoisted a 21-18 victory to win the game and the trophy. As captain, it is my duty to bring attention to our devoted coach, Mr. Gallagher, and my thanks, and the team's, go to him for such a successful year. S.

Several players came with experience, having been taught several skills at their previous schools. The first game amazed the coach if not the players, for the game positively waved as our forwards ploughed their way through six or seven inches of lush turf. Caroline Lambe, Heather McDonald and Suzanna Crofton were unperturbed as they rattled 9 goals past the Reynolds keeper. The girls, ob- viously used to such conditions, continued to score freely against all the High School opposition. In 12 games, we won 7, tied 4, and lost only one. SMU consequently finished 2nd in the league, behind Parklands and qualified for the Island Championships. At the U-Vic Tournament we defeated Claremont 2-0 and Brentwood College 2-0 but lost to the eventual winners Spectrum. Our defence of Sonya Nigg, Karen Gustafson and Marianne Anderson all distinguished themselves against some strong opposition. Kim McElroy kept goal valiantly after Diana Rugeroni had to leave the field with a broken foot bone. Caroline Lambe, always in the right place, finished the season with over 20 goals to her credit. Suzanna Crofton and Heather McDonald were outstanding and must be commended for their en- thusiasm. Kirsten Peters, who also suffered a leg injury, played strongly prior to her accident. Susan Kemble was useful and fast on the wing and her centers were very effective, enabling our forwards to score more easily. Clarende Duby, Sharon Kemble and Peta Tibbetts were also sound team members and they provided excellent support for their fellow players. We have good potential for next season. Barnacle won the House Competition and the staff XI edged the XI by l-0. A good first season and many warm thanks to Mr. J.,I. Goodwin who coached the team with enthusiasm and patience. Also a special thanks to the Rev. T. Davies for his support and his assistance in coaching. I would finally include gratitude for the enormous support from the boys and friends of the school, who encouraged the team constantly through the winter months. C. Lambe - Nv- HA 'TE' , '- ,,4g NJ , , hw e 4 TP We had good participation by the girls on om' soccer team this year. Under the direction of our coach, lVlr. Keble. the girls' skills greatly improved during the short, middle term. The result of our practice was one exhibition game against Brentwood College. Spurred on by the schools enthusiastic cheering. the girls came from behind to tie the opposition 2-ZZ. We are all looking forward to another, longer SPHSOII HPXI y93I'. M. Anderson 'L ! 'Sw SENIOR CROSS-COUNTRY We had a strong boys' team this year, and after the first race in the Senior High School X-Country League we were a solid second. Unfortunately, throughout the season we were plagued by injuries to several of our top runners. However, other students valiantly came to our aid, and managed to pull off a respectable fifth place, three points behind a strong Belmont team. Congratulations must go to Michael Barber, Jeff Bray, Shawn Costello, Jamie Ellis, Julian Marsden and Gary Wohlgeschaffen for their efforts. This year saw the initiation of SMU girls into the X- Country League. They managed to place a well- deserved fourth. The team consisted of Marianne Anderson, Janice Cottingham, Susan and Sharon Kemble and Heather McDonald, who must be commended for placing in the top ten in every race. Well done. The winter term had as its major meet the B.C. Independent Schools' X-Country meet at Shawnigan Lake School. Shawn Costello placed 5th, Jeff Bray Tth, Jamie Ellis 9th, and Julian Marsden Ilth, to give the boys a second place finish behind Brentwood College. Heather McDonald ran the boys' race. she did well. but we won't mention her place. S. Costello J . Marsden JUNIOR CROSS-COUNTRY Throughout the second term, many boys from both Grades VIII and IX competed in the Greater Victoria Cross-Country League. At the start of the season we came first with Oak Bay next. There were fotu' runners who were constantly coming in the top ten in all the races held. These runners were, Doug Waldie, Karl Molineamc, Stephen Bogdanski and David Backhouse. At the last race at S.J. Willis School, we went in with a slim lead in the point standings over Oak Bay. Because of injury to one of our top runners, The A team thought the trophy would be lost. so it depended on the B team to win it. As it turned out, they prevailed and we won the trophy by 3 points. I know that the runners would like to thank Mr. Gallagher for his time, effort and for his coaching in helping us to a winning effort. D .

Wye During the first term. the Swim Team was very fortunate to have the benefit of the coaching of John Ellis. an Old Boy who swam at the national level. His coaching helped to prepare the senior team for the City League. This year. our girls were joined by the Norfolk House girls. The whole team swam well, and we placed near the top, overall. Unfortunately. it was not a good year for our jimior team, as they were unable to defend the Junior High Championship. because the Meet was set dining our holidays. Thus, the team was unable to show its talent. In February. we sent a number of students to the Boys' Independent School's Meet. This year, it was hosted by St. Georges. and it turned out to be a close meet. As in the past. there was a superb display of talent. In the Open and imder-lb groups. we placed second to Brentwood College. The Under-14 group was disappointed by a third place finish. In the overall standing. we placed second to Brent- wood. Since last year's introduction by Brentwood College, the number of girls has increased. This year there were three girls from Brentwood and two from S.M.U. I hope to see more girls in the meet in years to come. and the name of the Meet changed. to include the girls. L. Matuga lThe ever-lasting Women 's Libber Ed.l 5 Q1 .

Our main competition. St. Georges. proved too strong for us but they have the advantage of playing regularly in a high school league in Vancouver. an opportlmity which we hope will soon exist here in Victoria. Simon Phillips, who played a masterful inning of 69 NOT OUT in our first encounter with St. Georges, was the outstanding cricketer in the school and received the Incogs Prize . Another useful player was Andrew Maxwell who last summer was selected for the Canadian Colts' team. Both Simon and Andrew were selected to play for Victoria in the Cameron Cup match against Vancouver this year. This year's Clayton Cup competition reflected the improved calibre of the cricket in the school as all four teams looked quite competent. In the end Maxwell's, Spencer's and Benson 's Xl shared the trophy, each with two wins and one loss. Clayton Cup competition next year will not have the services of Padre Blencoe who has for many years withstood the elements dining the Wednesday afternoon encounters on the square. Fond memories of those days will linger and we all wish him a happy time at the Junior School next year. J. Wcnman CC 'El JE .yu J! ...N 'f: tr 'bg -.,,,. 1ST XI CHARACTERS ANTOLIN A good all-rounder. With more concentration he will become a useful middle order man, and as a bowler, he shows promise. but his length is inconsistent as yet. A fine fielder. MACLEAN A useful addition to the team. largely due to his ex- cellent fielding. A promising left arm bowler. but little defence as a batsman. GERARD Particularly promising with the ball which he can turn both ways. He is now finding a consistent length and more wickets will come when he masters the art of FLIGHTING the ball. Improving as a batter, but rather weak in the field. BARBER Still rather tentative with the bat. but it is straighter and runs will come when his confidence grows. Adequate in the field. LE NOURY He inspired the side with his enthusiasm rather than his batting skills! AQUART He shows promise as a batsman, and possesses good defensive strokes. Slow in the field. he must learn to anticipate. CUNNINGHAM Very keen and willing. Improving in the field, but still rather awkward with the bat. J. Wenman PHILIPS lCAP'Tl Perhaps one of the best equipped cricketers that the school has produced. As a batter he possesses strokes all around the wicket but is particularly strong on the leg. His patience and wide array of strokes augur well for his cricket future. As a wicket-keeper he is extraordinarily gifted and he captained the side quite competently. SPENCER Not as successful with either bat or ball as had been hoped. He was, despite his easy, action, not able to bowl a consistent line, and he never came off with the bat. even though he possessed a good defence. Good in the field. MAXWELL His enthusiasm and all-round ability made him a great asset to the team. A useful spin-bowler but inclined to deliver too many loose ones. An aggressive and powerful hitter of the ball though prone to hit too much in the air. Very good in the field. WOHLGESCHAFFEN Progressing well with the bat and should score rims next year. Needs to become more aggressive and get his head over the ball when playing forward. BENSON Lacking confidence with the bat but the foun- dations are there and the runs will come. Not a safe fielder at the moment. in-.ri , IUNIOR CRICKET - lik?-i I MEI, V XT .I xg l 'M 'lf M . - l - --'s'AJk7Ji The Under 15 XI had a short but enjoyable season in 1979. After a few short practices we played St. Georges at home. john Wilson. Greg Johnson and Andrew Gerard bowled well to dismiss their bats- men cheaply for 56 runs. Although we were eventually defeated: we went on to beat Glenlyon twice and Stelly's once on our home ground. Mark Ely and Simon Gough both batted very well against Glenlyon, putting on over 50 runs for the first wicket. Steven Benson and David Backhouse also looked good. In the final game against St. Georges. played in Vancouver. Mark Ely and Andrew Gerard bowled with authority, whilst John Wilson scored a useful 15 runs. Tim Brown and Kenny Wolhgeschaffen also batted sensibly. showing good technique. St Georges went on to win by 3 wickets. It must be noted also that Evan Seal, Hamish Creek and Stephen Thatcher all fielded well and showed good potential for next year. The fielding and catching in general was good. The running between the wickets also improved significantly during the season. Our thanks to Mr. JJ. Goodwin for his enthusiastic coaching dining the season. A. Gerard. Captain Cricket Skills this year have shown considerable improvement. Many boys from last year not only played during the weekg but also on Saturday mornings in the local League. Several, I'm glad to report, again played representative Cricket for Victoria. The following played for the Under 19 side against Vancouver: Simon Phillips. Captaing Andrew Maxwell. and Russell Benson. At the Under 15 level: Andrew Gerard, John Wilson. Greg Johnson. Steven Benson. Kenny Wohlgeschaffen, Simon Gough and Mark Ely. At the Under 13 level: Kenny Wohlgeschaffen. Andreas Thatcher. and Rodney Stone. A good per- formance by everyone. The cricket nets were re-wired this year: and their availability greatly encouraged the boys in their practicing.

Mondays saw more than twenty girls playing regularly and improving steadily as the season progressed. ln November the school played in a small tournament at Princess Elizabeth School in Vancouver and won in all categories except mens singles. as Andrew Voon was forced to retire in the final with severe leg cramps. High school league play began after the Christmas vacation with teams depleted by sickness which cost us the first two matches. After this poor start, badminton was played in true SMU style with a series of easy victories to place ns in the play-offs for Provincial representation.

These were very quickly ov ersubscribed and many players were disappointed. lt is hoped that we can repeat this very successful session in the Fall. ln the Pepsi Cola junior Badminton Tournament the school won the Vancouver Island Zone playoff at the Under-19 age level and narrowly lost in the Under-lo category. The Senior team went to a Provincial tornament in Vancouver but lost to an excellent team from Eric Hamber School. Badminton continues as the major raquet sport at SMUS with the program now strengthened by our own girls. P.G. Gardiner ws TENNIS I . I , I ' - . r T 4 Jw ' X 1 1 ' l U ' I .

Both teams acquitted themselves well. The first team lost only one closely contested match 15-bl and the second team gained tremendous experience for next season. It was decided not to enter the Provincial Tournament this year as this coincided with examination week. The school tournament was squeezed into the very busy end of term routine with: Susanna Crofton winning the Ladies Singles Susanna Crofton and Kirsten Peters winning the Ladies Doubles Steven Colwell winning the Men 's Singles Trevor Moat and Justin Stephenson winning the Men 's Doubles Although the wall area for tennis has been increased this year we have been severely limited by lack of court space and poor cotu't surfaces.

For the first time. this year's group included boys from grades four and five as well as six and seven. On November 10th. 1078, the group demonstrated at a recorder workshop, directed by Mr. Davies, at the British Columbia Music Educators Conference held at the University of Victoria. At the Christmas Carol Service and Christmas Concert the Recorder Group accompanied the choir as well as playing several pieces on their own. The highlight of the year was the groups performance at the Greater Victoria Music Festival. The group was entered in two categories - one for recorder only and another for mixed classroom instruments. In the first category, competing against three other schools, they played Autumn , and Riverside ltwo tunes composed by hir. Daviesl and were placed first with an im- pressive score of 9296. In the second category, playing the theme from Eye Level and The Skye Boat Song they scored 943. N0 other school entered this category. Our group was chosen to play at the Schools' Honour Performance. The successful year was rounded off with a performance of the Festival pieces by the Recorder Group at the Fine Arts evenings held at the Junior School at the end of May. M.

Many boys followed the tradition of being the first ones privileged to borrow the books presented in their names to the library. Christmas time was an opportunity for boys throughout the school to make decorations for the lop- sided. but serviceable. artificial tree. Wrhen he spied the tree being assembled. one Grade T groaned, Oh no! Not that phony one again! The tree's dubious beauty was greatly enhanced by a paper wish tied to a branch by a small boy who asked Santa to bring Peace to the World.

Mossman Cl THE STORM One sunny day, I was outside playing with my dog, when suddenly thunder clouds came scudding across the sky, blocking out all possible light. My dog and I rushed into our house. terrified by the suddenness of the storm. My parents were out of town. so we were on our own. Soon rain came ratt-tat-tatting onto our windows like machine-gun fire. The wind uprooted trees like tooth- picks, sending them crashing onto the wet pavement below. Our rafters screeched like a band of horned owles. My dog soon began to whimper and somehow I knew the end was near. However, as I thought these words, the rain stopped, the wind slowed down, the birds started to sing. The storm was over!

RAIN Every Sunday as I rise, I don 't see the stars, just the skies, I wake up as the rain goes pitter-patter, And on my window it does splatter. It trickles down as moments pass, It reaches the ledge and drops to the grass. Although the rain makes me sad, It makes the plants and flowers glad. Duncan Richards 14-D KATHLEEN MCCANN I think it was when l was about three years old that I first recall her. She was part ul my life for only six short years after that. I am trying to remember what it was exactly that made her such a great lady. No, she didn 't swim the English Channel in record- breaking time. nor was she the first lady politician to hold public office. Actually. it wasn't what she did, but what she was, that made my grandmother a very great and beautiful lady. The picturesque Ottawa valley was home to Kathleen Smith from her birth in 1010. until she reluctantly ventured west to Alberta with her husband. John McCann. and their six children in 1949. A large family was something Kathleen was very familiar with. She herself had been one of seven children of an Irish Catholic family. She had three brothers and three sisters. They were a very close family and for years spent many happy times together. She loved it when they gathered with relatives, especially on holidays. There were so many Aunts, Uncles and cousinsg these times of piano playing, singing and laughing, provided many cherished memories in the years to come. My grandmother certainly didn't come from a wealthy family, but her father owned a big farm house with a respectable amotmt of land. There was always plenty of good food. and plenty of hard work for everyone too. She told me there were so many things nowadays that people took for granted. She said even though it was about 40 years later she still recalled how she dreaded getting up in the morning as a little girl. Sometimes there was even a layer of ice on her wash water. Until someone got the wood burning stove going there was no relief from the chill. I know now, that was another part of my grandmother that I loved. She seemed to get so much enjoyment out of life: even the small things. like comfortable. heated houses. She never complained either: when I was arotmd her Ijust felt there was never anything that went wrong. She gave everyone such a sense of comfortable security. She seemed so strong in every way. She didn't look strong though. She was just a tiny lady: small-boned and about five feet tall. She had reddish-brown hair and smiling green-grey eyes. She never got cross at any of my brothers, sisters. or me. I don 't think it was because we were perfect kids all the time either. My grandmother had many things go wrong in her life that made her very sad, but never showed her sadness. When her husband decided to move West because of business. she had to leave her parents. brothers. sisters and life-long friends and begin again in foreign surroundings without a single friend to support her. She never did see her mother again because she died two years later, before Kathleen could make her way East again. I guess the next ten years were pretty hectic for her. My grand- father travelled quite a bit with his work and she was left with almost the total responsibility of coping with six growing children and all that it involved. N The death of my grandfather, due to a sudden. massive heart attack must have seemed like the end of the world to my grandmother. At that time her six children ranged between the ages of twelve and eighteen. She also knew that. unless she found some type of employment, financial difficulties would be added to her already burdened life. Now frightened, she must have been wondering what she could do. and how impossible it all must have seemed. She wasn't really prepared for much else in life as she was married at a young age. Within two years. with the help of a good family friend. Kathleen was managing a small and profitable business which, through her efforts, grew during the next sixteen years in size and value. Her favourite saying was, If you can't change your position. change your attitude , and she certainly applied it to herself many times. During those years her family was growing in age and numbers. She now had sixteen grandchildren. To stay with my grand- mother for a weekend was the happiest experience I can remember. I felt so excited whenever it was my turn. We got to stay up so late with her. all of us snuggled together watching 'I'.V. I guess she must have been the best cook in the world, and she always made our favourite foods whenever we were at her house. She seemed to know everything about each one of us and she would tease and laugh and play with us for hours. I don 't remember all the details of the event that was to change our lives. One Sunday after Church we stopped at her house just for a short visit on our way home. She said she had the 'flu, but I remember that a horrible feeling came over me. She looked so differentg week and tired looking. I never did see her againg she died five weeks later. The doctors said they could do nothing. because it was too late. She had cancer of the pancreas. I thought my relatives would never be the same again. It hurt too much. Today I can think of it all again. I know now what made my grandmother the greatest person in my life. No one in the world could love better than she loved. She had a way of making each one of us feel as if we were the most important person in the world. All her children felt they were her favourite, and all her grandchildren felt they were her favourite. Deep down inside me though I am so proud because really I was her favourite! Rod McCann t7l BEACH Directly to my left there is a small crab, with its small shell on its back, quickly scuttling across a flat, grey-brown rock. About two feet to my left is a tiny pool of water, mere inches across, filled with small, black and white fish, with thin streamlined bodies: bright pink and orange coral, miniature anemones with green-brown stubby tentacles, and small winged insects. Directly in front of me, the yellow-brown sand stops abruptly to meet the calm waters. Bright white seagulls float gently on the bluish-green ocean. A male mallard duck, green head glistening, continually dunks his head into the water in the hope of catching a fish. Far away in the distance I can see a tanker, heavy with the burden of oil. The long, thin, grey- brown-green bull kelp waits for the tide to come in. Oc- casionally a seagull will spread its wings and depart from the water for parts unknown. Overhead, a pair of seagulls hang lazily in the bright blue sky, sometimes swooping down, skimming the waters. A flock of ducks, flapping their wings madly, retain a V shape as they fly. About 4-00 yards to my right I spot a dirty, light brown car pulling up into a parking lot. A pair of seagulls make a wide circuit aronmd the parking lot and land on the hood of the car. The driver rolls down his window and tosses a piece of white bread to one of the seagulls. They drop their heads and then scream while lifting them, calling the rest of the seagulls. Three crows, with their oil black feathers, jump sideways, forward and backward, picking up scraps as the seagulls leave. A young gull, all brown with white patches and black beak, slaps his feet around the black pavement, running to get food thrown by the driver of the car. On a small outstretch of rock, a regal blue heron spreads his massive wings and flies a foot above the water. Nearby, a slim, black cormorant dives into the water and brings up a small, shining, silver fish squirming in its beak. Robert Harris l7l g s. Kuhn m VA. ff MVA. J. Marra AUTUMN LEAVES No chlorophyll remains in these, the fallen armies from the trees, their service done they part their host, and, downward, to the ground they coast. Then, snatched by winds, they ride the air, chasing each other everywhere. Some gold, some russet, some just plain brown leap from the branches and tumble down, their single purpose to dance and play thro' each delightful Autmnn day. N o more photosynthesis for these, the erstwhile factories of the trees, work well done, retired with grace, the buds of Spring will take their place. B.W. Alford ST.
