DON GREEN Don, alias The Kid , has finally made it through his six eventful years at the college. Known for his athletic abihties, rather than his academic prowess, DG certainly made his presence felt. Captain of both football and hockey, winner of the Victor Ludorum, and a notta badda rugby player playing for the World 7 ' s team, Don never suffered from the P.R. blues. A prefect in his final year, Don was known to disciphne not only the boys at the school, but a few Riverside and Halton patrons as well. His ' fun-loving ' nature was felt in his first year in the junior dorm. Arrive from the small hamlet of Brockville? Don wasted no time in adjusting to school life with constant trips out the fire escape for a better view . The casanova of the class, Don has had more women than hot dinners, eh Bunny! Don will be heading to Queen ' s, in his deadly yellow beast, to tear apart the football team and we wish him the best of luck, he will not soon be forgotten. P.S. Thanks for the A-Bay. DONALD HAMILTON In his five years at Appleby, Don has made his presence felt in more ways than one. He is a fine student, as evidenced by his four year tenure on Unsupervised Study and his Gold Optimates. He is also been active in sports, by playing on various Cricket Teams for four years, the Second Swim Team for two years, and the school ' s most honoured and prestigious squad. League Hockey, for three years. But it was Don ' s extra-curricular activities, both officially sanctioned and otherwise where he made his name. He has played lead trumpet in the Band for five years, been an Argus photographer and Powell ' s House darkroom manager for two years, and a member of the Operetta chorus for two years. In other activities , Don ' s nocturnal peregrinations have resulted in a boom in business for Country Style Doughnuts and the strangest collection of odds and ends the school has ever seen. He has also been responsible for more new clothing rules than the rest of the class put together! All in all, Don ' s stay at Appleby has been a memorable one for all concerned. Let ' s just hope that the university he attends next year is prepared far in advance. STEVE HARMER Shultz has seen four years at the Apple , but the Apple hasn ' t always seen four years of Shultz . Yes, Steve dreads the thought of staying in one place too long and his travels, as a result, have taken him both near and far. A winning smile and a wry sense of humour will always stand a person in good stead h owever, and Steve was amply gifted with both of these qualities. An exceptional math student, he repeatedly astounded those who knew him with pre-exam snoozes and post-exam successes. Over the years he also has played hockey, tennis and football and the halls frequently resonated with the sounds of laughter as he took his pet rock, Felix, for evening strolls. If popularity and friendliness could be counted in material riches then Shultz would indeed have lots and lots of bread (as the hippies say). What ' s he going to do in the future? I haven ' t the foggiest idea. is his cheerful reply. Whatever it is though, it ' s bound to be successful. Good luck Steve!

RICK BRUCE It was sometime early in his nine year career at Appleby, when Rick Bruce was christened Rat . To this day we are still mys tified as to exactly what the connotations of this are. R the R was the most experienced member of the elite Colley House Grade 13 squad, the last to live in the old Colley House. Athletically, Rick has been a key member of the Golf Team for three years. He led it to a second place finish in the I.S.A.A. this year. He has been a pillar of strength on the League Hockey team for the past five years and has also been a member of the First Football team for two. Academically he was a steady student and his name was often found on the Unsupervised Study list. We will always remember Rat as an enjoyable guy who always kept on laughing and entertaining us with his many adventure stories and his frequent, but brief romances. We must give him credit for his Hmitless imagination, which has helped many of us to wile away the empty hours. Rick, we wish you thebest of luck! DOUG CAMPBELL In the three years which Doug has been at the Apple, he has left very few areas untouched. He has managed to obtain membership in the gold optimates club and has been on the unsupervised study list for three years. He has also portrayed an able Inspector in Dial M for Murder, and held a role in the performance of ' .The Jockey Club Stakes. His public speaking ability has helped him in both debating and the public speaking contest. Athletically, Doug made the record board in soccer, played league squash and managed to finish as the over-all runner-up on Sports Day. But let us not forget Doug ' s personality, nor can we easily forget Doug ' s sincere, easy-going and congenial nature because to do so would be to risk breaking the bond that ties together the whole school. We at Appleby wish for you the best in the future, whatever goal you may c hoose and are certainly most likely to achieve. KEITH CHIN Keith ' s biggest thing was his cricket. In his two years here, he has cricketed his way into the hearts of the entire school, winning, in his final year, the coveted most valuable player award for the cricket team. When he goes back to Trinidad brandishing this trophy, he will be able to field all types of offers from the first division teams down there. Along with this great cricketing ability, Keith is reputed to have perfected another perhaps more valuable skill: sleeping. He was one of those students who, to his credit, could always be found in his room during study - but not always working (snore). His smiling and quiet face was a pleasure to have nearby; those of us who knew him in the house can attest to his. We wish him all the best in his future endeavours and certainly hope to see him back at the College at one of those fabulous Old Boy functions.

PAUL HUBNER One of Paul ' s favorite shots of himself is atop a snow-covered cliff overlooking Rabbitnose Island at Temagami. The sunglasses reflect the glare of snow and sun and blue sky, while from directly below them comes his trademark - a big smile. In the smile we read his personal generosity, his sensitivity (Mr. Berriman remembers how even in grade 7 Paul used to Usten to classical music when everyone else was grooving to the Osmonds) and his friendliness. And then one could depend on him, too - his patrols at Northward Bound had to, and he developed this quality further as a prefect in Colley House. So it ' s off to university next year: keep smiling. HUGH JONES Hugh-bear has been with us for four years now, and for Hugh, life ' s been a breeze. A non- conformist on the field, he has resisted any temptations athletic status may have offered him. Hugh has a casual acceptance of sports, enjoying league hockey, squash, tennis, and is an ardent member of the Appleby ' country club ' . A pleasent, happy go lucky fellow. Bear concentrated his efforts as an artist, musician and high scoring economics student . Artistic in nature, Hugh displayed talent in this field by winning the grade 12 art prize. However Hugh-Bear will be best remember for his energetic participation in the Fetal Pigs invasion, A friendly, easy going fellow off stage, Hugh became a frenzied axe wielding bassist in his unforgettable stint with the Fetal Pigs. When asked where he plans to go next year Hugh responds with whichever way the wind blows. Well I hope the world is ready for you Hugh and remember - never fly a kite on a windy day. DAVE KEATES Y ' know, I got a friend who hves in a big red brick house down by the lake and he must be almost seven feet tall if he ' s an inch. He ' s got these huge big hands that look like he used to hammer stakes in with them when he was a kid, and he ' s strong as ten guys, but he ' s quiet and good natured and when he smiles you reckon he ' s got the inside track on things and that he knows you ' ll be alright in the end. Some guys think he ' s dumb and they shout things at him about how dumb he is but I watched him and I seen him sit quiet and size things up. I seen those big hands of his stroke a guitar gentle enough to coax a song and 1 heard the way he talks sometimes and he ' s as smart as he is big. And if he isn ' t letting on to anyone, then he ' s smarter yet.
