Editor ' s Page - - • CiC r T Recalled to life; Two whole years I ' ve spent here. Two whole years. Two years I ' ve watched the sun set through those grimy windows - the ones above the typewriter and the dismal desks. For two years I ' ve watched it cast shadows over pictures, papers, articles, pens, pencils, more paper, more articles, more pictures, more For two years have the incessant footsteps gone quickly by, back and forth, back and forth. Keys rattling, chains dangling. Two years have I heard the guard com- mand: Prisoner 8925 - we ' ve got to get going on this thing. Two years have I been in this Bastille. For two years things have I scurried about my cell. A tree with no leaves spanks the wet window. An all too familiar smell rises from the cold, dank stone floor. Is it? No! Yes! It is! It is that scent! - the glue! No! Not the gas cham- ber! Ahhhhhhhh! My cry fades off down the corridor and always the echo comes back with the message, Argus is fun. Two years in this Conciergerie. My crime? I remember being told, It is a far far better thing that you do, than you have ever done. When it is over, it will be a far far better rest that you go to than you have ever known. That ' s but part of the past now. And yet it was that idealism, that enthusiasm, that carried me through. It was my raft in the river, one might say. I would have drowned without it. It was the Dlti- mate sacrifice. If only I had had some cell-mates to relieve it all. But it ' s been good. Ironic, I ask? No. Crazy then? No. It ' s been rewarding, really. I ' ve stuck it through. I ' ve learned. I ' ve had FUN. But I ' m recalled to life. Argus seven-nine is complete. Rob Cartotto 6

tf N The Board of Governors is a title which causes many doubts in the minds of the boys. In most cases they are portrayed as a group of old- fashion men who make all the unpopular decisions that affect the well-being of the school. This, I am glad to say is a fallacy! They are not senile - they are truly concerned for and vigorous in their attempts to help the boys . And since most are old boys of have sons that attend i he school they have a clear, con- temporary view of the problems a private school has to face. Their conduct shows their concern for the boys. The time devoted to supervising school matters is their own. They do it voluntarily and receive no pay for their valuable work. The time I met one of the governors (by accident) he appeared whole and hearty, all old school tie. 1 was expecting a prepared speech on the playing fie lds of Eton. However I was wrong. His manner turned serious and he asked me what my grievances and or praises were against and or for Appleby. Afterwards, 1 was impressed with his concern for the school and with the weight and thought he gave to both sides of my list. They are all successful businessmen but their manner towards the school is not business- like. It stems from their love and t for Appleby College. i I Board of Governors A.W.
