Mr. Polk provided a brief summary of each poem before it was read. This seemed to be a valuable innovation. The winners were: CU Brightg 121 Hainesg and Honourable Mentions to Al- Zand and Perry. PUBLIC SPEAKING This year's standard was, without question, the finest in many years. The topics spoken to ranged from The Art of Frying an Egg CCharles Hainesl to The Trouble With Video Games fKarim Al- Zandj. The audience was, in turn, amused Qby Willy Raby's My father and Me , informed by Matthew Perry's Pay T.V. and by Gian Vitzthum's Christopher Columbus , and gently kidded by Matthew Bassett's The Trouble With Parents. All of the speakers were clear and confident. Charles Haines, who came second, presented his light-hearted topic with aplomb and with the solemn dignity it seemed to require. He had the audience eating out of his hand tread 'frying pan'J. In con- trast, Karim Al-Zand presented a thoughtful statement on the shortcomings of mindless video games. A measure of the contestants' excellence was easily observed by the careful attention which the speakers commanded from their audience. The judges were Mr. Peter McLean and Mr. ELR Williamson who teaches Economic Reasoning in the Senior School. Mr. Williamson's cogent comments in conclusion were of great value to the contestants and to any future aspirants. D.C.P. BLUE SEA WEEKEND Blue Sea Lake denotes the weekend when all the Junior School boarders and all the teachers go to Percy Sherwood's cottage CMike's brotherj to have fun. The purpose, naturally, is to make the Junior boarders feel at ease at Ashbury and to see each other as well as the teachers as human beings. The pictures complete the story.

MUSIC Music is certainly alive and well in the Junior School as is attested to by several warmly received concerts both in winter and spring. In addition, the Interhouse Competition in music was never better and to top it all off, the Junior Choir is, at the time of writing, travelling through England and Scotland giving performances in St. Mary's Cathedral, Scotland as well as at various Preparatory Schools in England, and at both the Canadian High Commission and St Mary Le Bow Church in London. This year, too, Ashbury produced a record which included singers and instrumentalists from the Senior and Junior Schools. Choirmaster Peter McLean comments that the year has provided much incentive to strive for excellence. One couldn't agree more!
