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.

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!

MIKE KENT There was seldom a lime that, upon making their study rounds, the Powell ' s House masters wouldn ' t find Mike playing his guitar. While his love for his instrument took up a great deal of his time, Mike also put a lot of effort into many other activities, such as the Argus, and community service. Despite all of this, he was a good student, often a member of the Unsupervised and Optimates Clubs during his five years at the College. Mike was basically a quiet guy, and not a strong contributor to school teams, although he actively took part in tennis, squash and cross-country running. Mike has made a lot of friends at Appleby, among boys and masters alike but occasionally he was unaccounted for in the early morning! We wish him the best of luck ne.xt year at U. of T. where he plans to study medicine and we hope to see him at all the Old Boy ' s gatherings. BILL KING The Binger has been a good friend to many of us during his four years. Although studious by nature he still has many going interests. One of which you can see him trucking all over the campus! It ' s not easy to carry a tuba but he sure can play it. Bill has good potential in leadership as shown by his year as an E.R. instructor and as a prefect in Powell ' s House. Bill has certainly shown himself capable of using the rackets by playing on the squash teams for two years and as an active player on the tennis courts. Although not known for being a real rowdy. Bill has still had many good times with us. We all wish him well as he takes a year off before studying Computer Science at York. GRAHAM LEGGAT This is almost a farewell but you asked for it no apologies remember you came in with that defensive look of I dare you to teach me and that ' s how you remained tortured by mediocrity still that doesn ' t explain your love of Kerouac and Burroughs except that maybe they taught you something by osmosis almost ' cause boy did you celebrate them but they taught you maybe a thing or two that is the capacity for an uncompromising affection for some people you wouldn ' t have chosen but people who cracked shins and frustrations with you nevertheless because the school chose you all putting you stern Graham footballing, basketballing, ruggering acting and prefecting with them until you with new knowledge of yourself and of us the rest became more yes more yourself finding some dusty unknown alleys of what we could call your inner San Francisco you know Zen and pilgrimages and all peace et cetera learning that peace isn ' t an escape but the climax of a series of self-discoveries and of course it was more than this your time here indeed there was something else you said it yourself that made this time a memorable one though 1 paraphrase and that was the realization that emotional mediocrity is as bad as other types which made you as unrelenting in that department as elsewhere but happier I think too because here yes here in this school you found some emotional gold yes here man yes yes yes and so may I add did we in you thanks.
