HEADMASTER'S INTRODUCTION One of the duties of a Headmaster each year is to write an article for the Yearbook. Such pieces tend to be a recitation of the year's accomplishments and there have certainly been many achievements this past year of which SMU students, teachers and parents may well feel proud. 1981-82 will be remembered as the year of the 70th and 75th anniversary celebrations, the year in which SMU won both the Independent schools' and the Greater Victoria rugby league championships, the year in which basketball became a respected sport, the year in which the school began to take off in music and in artg the year in which SMU won the Junior and Senior high school's debating cham- pionships of Vancouver Island, the year of the Paul Almond movie, in which so many of this year's graduating class played important roles, not least, it John Schaffter was the year in which SMU became overall THE top Headmaster maths school in Canada. 1 Having, then, said all the sorts of things which ought to be said in the introduction to a yearbook, I would like to share with the graduation class one of my favourite word games. It is a game guaranteed to foster clear thinking and to help rid the mind of prejudices. Better still, for anyone who enjoys words, it is fun to play. It consists of making up irregular verbs and l recommend the game for idle moments while waiting in airports or for lectures to start in universities. The game was started, I believe, by Bertrand Russell, the mathematician philosopher, who declined: I am firmg you are obstinate, he is a pig-headed fool. My other favourite examples, include the following: I am sparkling: you are unusually talkative, he is drunk. I am an epicure, you are a gourmandg he has both feet in the trough. I am casual: you are informalg he is an unshaven slobf' I am righteously outraged, you are annoyed, she is making a fuss about nothing. I have reconsideredg you have changed your mind, he has failed to keep his word. I dreamg you escape: he needs help. To the 1982 Graduates of SMU, the very best of good wishes to you in all your years ahead!
