M. Scott without whose help this book could never have been printed. The following have assisted greatly in making the work of the editorial staff lighter: Typing manuscripts: Lucy Bonella William Brown Robert Hood Marion Miller George Stout Dorothy Wocknitz Lettering: Lila Adams Marie Baron Rodena Beaton Edward Chute Bessie Davies Stewart Hay Augusta Heinrich Joe Morris Ada Olsen K. Semeniuk Margaret Shelton George Stout Arlene Walker Advertising: Howard Germen Much credit is due to all who contributed articles. A great deal of excellent material has necessarily been omitted due to lack of space. However, we thank all those who submitted work for the Year Book. We can accomplish anything that we have the necessary determination for—study, growth, progress of every kind—if we use intelligently and opportunely every available moment; and, conveniently, we can so overlook the value of time that, when a reckoning finally comes, we have only regrets and wasted oppor¬ tunities to look back upon. Thoughtfulness is love’s carrier pigeon, bringing to the hearts of our friends continued proof of our permanency and sincerity. Where selfishness is, there is no happiness, for selfishness corrodes and embitters. If things go wrong don’t pout, don’t cuddle grievances, and at all times and under all circum¬ stances, use common sense, PAGE THIRTEEN

Biographies Class IA P. G. V. AKRIGG—Lethbridge His booming voice first sounded in 1913. Is heard from in class whenever anything of importance is being discussed. Philip is our budding poet, having given to the natives of Calgary and dis¬ trict, through the medium of the “Herald,” a forceful description of the “fair nymph of Calyp¬ so” and her escapades. F. B. ANSLEY—Medicine Hat Born in Medicine Hat, he went to school there, taking an active part in many fields of athletics. He was president of our hockey association, played left defence on the team, and was well known for his steady playing. His hobby, natur¬ ally, is sport. J. K. ARMSTRONG—Medicine Hat Topic: Jack Armstrong. Aim: Recognition, ap¬ preciation. Basis: Born in Medicine Hat, Febru¬ ary 19, 1915. Material: Picture. Presentation: Appearance: Tall, dark. General Secretary of Dramatic Club; Secretary- treasurer of IA, First Term. Specific: You’ve heard the laugh. Habitat: C.N.S. Habits: Swimming, skating, ping-pong. A. A. BAIN—Castor Ambrose has his headquarters at Castor, Alberta. In September of last year, he made an advance of some 200 miles to take Calgary by storm. How¬ ever, after meeting the Public School Forces in November, he beat a hasty retreat in December, ’33. His chief interests are music and tennis. R. R. BOUNDY—Calgary Ralph was born in Calgary, took his High School at Crescent Heights, and spent a while at Com¬ mercial, before coming to be IA’s Radio An¬ nouncer. A prospect for the school play. Pastime: Teaching somersaults to girls. Ambition: To be able to sing as well as a grade 2 pupil should. E. C. CHUTE—Innisfail He is known everywhere as “Ted,” and is very easy to get along with. He likes to play around with the Binomial Theorem as well as with the Theorem of Pythagoras. In spite of this he is very practical. He was chosen as Class Critic for the second term. H. A. COMPTON—Calgary Al’s “Hi Kid,” has become a bv-word at Normal, and his unique laugh is known by everyone. Good in athletics, keen on dramatics, cultivating his tenor under Madame F.Ilis-Browne, and has a decided preference for blondes. Al’s personality and good nature have made him many friends at Normal. W. G. CORNS—Grassy Lake Since 1916, William roamed the plain of Grassy Lake, But in 1933 his place at C.N.S. he decided to take. And do we know him? Well, I should say— Just ask the boys of famous class IA, Who always heard him say, “Everything’s slick, But those singing classes make me sick.” W. A. DAVIS—Castor Though born at Edmonton, Bill, at the tender age of three, decided he would like a change, so he moved to Castor with his family, where he pre¬ pared himself for a stiff session at Normal. As speedy forward, Bill “did himself noble” on the hockey team. Good luck, pal! J. H. DONEY—Brant Musician first, a student last, A good sport all around. He’s tip-top in our P. T. class— A real friend up or down. J. S. FAREWELL—Blackfalds An agricultural product of Blackfalds. Came to Normal to find wisdom and we hope he has suc¬ ceeded. Takes an interest in sports and knows the leading events. Specializes in jam, art, and keeping his hair down. Hopes some, day to be able to teach “painless” grammar. P. FLORIA—Smoky Lake Born in Austria, where he received his high school education. After attending the University of Vienna for two years, he came to Canada in 1928, and learned English at Alberta College, Edmonton. He is a bright, business-like young man; his hobbies are chess and dancing. R. E. FREDERKING—Bruderheim “Freddie” is the only Edmonton product in IA, but his athletic ability, his keen humor, and edu¬ cational activities make him an outstanding mem¬ ber. His pet a version is Glee Club, and his chief trouble is to concentrate on Junior Literature games. His favorite pastime is walking home from Elbow Park. C. L. HARVEY—Rosedale Cliff Harvey’s a versatile chap, For sports he’s always on tap; He can play you a tune on his sax, Or chase away gloom with his cracks; On playground, in classroom or gym, His wit sparkling bright, Makes our hearts feel so light, There’s nothing we’d not do for him. A. J. S. HAY—Stettler. Stewart was born in Medicine Hat 19 years ago, but came to Normal from Stettler. Art may be all right for him, but P. T. is just one struggle after another. H. K. JACKSON—Medicine Hat The best things come in small parcels—from Medicine Hat. Harry occupies his nights in snappy basketball (and other things), and takes his rest in class. Chief hobby: Looking for “suitable” pictures. PAGE FIFTEEN
