Cfnnoofe CLASS 1A CHARLES DE TRO, Irma. Charles’ star performance as goalie in the season’s first hockey game ranks him as a second “Chuck” Gardiner. He is equally at home on the baseball field. Although of a rather retiring nature, he sometimes surprises his classmates by his answers in class discussions. LAWSON DEWAR, Big Valley. Lawson is an ardent lover of sport, being noted for his prowess as a basket¬ ball player. His athletic activities do not cause him to neglect his scholastic work. His motto is, “A sound mind in a sound body.” FRED EVANS, Didsbury. Fred has already commenced his teaching career while at Normal. As left wing on the school hockey team he has demonstrated to a class of goalies how a puck must be dodged. His chief concern as group leader in city practice is to solve the problem of sorting correctly the assignments from a Junior High School in the West End. JAMES FOOKS, Medicine Hat. James is interested in all lines of sport, when not occupied by his scholastic complications. It is rumored that he aspires to become an instructor in Physical Training. His smile never deserts him, not even when he is ren¬ dering first aid to Evans as group leader during city practice. WALTER GALDZINSKI, Lethbridge. A serious-minded student whose wisdom, especially in Health Education, is not to be disputed. He is a regular attendant at the Glee Club, although bass, and an outspoken leader in the Discussion Club (at its meetings and elsewhere). He proved to be a very efficient first term secretary for Class 1 A. HOWARD HARVEY, Rosedale. The “lightest spirit of them all”; endowed with a natural capacity for fun and merriment. He is always the first to see the point in any joke. His favorite exercise is dancing, but occasionally he indulges in basketball and hockey. Weird music is emitted by his saxophone. RODERICK HENDRY, Lethbridge. In common with many of his classmates “Rod” is keenly interested in sports. He is equally at home on the golf course, the tennis court, the football gridiron, and in the swimming pool. He is also very fond of bridge. GRAEME HOWARTH, Calgary. Graeme attended Mount Royal Junior College for a year after completing his High School education. His contribution to the athletic activities of Normal School has been made as a member of the hockey team. He is said to have political aspirations. Page Nineteen

El )t Clnnoofe CLASS 1A TRACY ANDERSON, Lethbridge. During his High School days Tracy distinguished himself as a member of the Provincial High School Basketball Championship team. He has up¬ held his reputation along these lines during his year at Normal. If he aspires as high in teaching as in athletics he will doubtless prove a success. RALPH ARRISON, Mossleigh. Ralph is an all round student. He was President of 1 A class during the second term. He was a star defence player on the hockey team, and was also interested in basketball and baseball. Ralph contributed vocal num¬ bers to several of the programmes, and was Athletics Editor of the Year Book. CLARK BLACKWOOD, Calgary. Clark is an enthusiastic supporter of the Boy Scouts. This and beating his own time record in getting to school are his two chief strenuous sports. Judging from his personality, manner, and practice-teaching marks, we have high hopes for his ultimate success in his chosen profession. JOSEPH BLOCKSIDGE, Lethbridge. Joseph was born in India, and spent some time in England before coming to Canada. He is a person of many parts, being a talented violinist, a capable basketball player, and a member of the Signal Corps. His special hobby is woodwork. WILLIAM BRUCE, Alliance. This serious-minded young man shows many indications of making an efficient teacher. Being interested in all the sports of Normal, and never missing a chance to have a good time, William is enjoying his year at C. N. S. to the full. HOWARD CARRICO, Calgary. Howard applies himself diligently to all his studies, and is noted for his perseverance. He also displays a keen interest in sports. We suspect that his serious countenance masks a keen sense of humor. JACK CLARK, Didsbury. Jack’s jokes .wisecracks and funny contortions arouse much hilarity among the members of his class. He is brilliant in mathematics, and a capable first baseman in baseball. But ah! What a singer! His melodious strains awake memories of Modestine in Stevenson’s “Travels With a Donkey.” HARRY CUMMINS, Banff. A man of credit and renown whose popularity explains his position of Vice-President of the Students’ Union for the first term. He is a good all-round athlete, being at home on the hockey rink, in the swimming pool and on the baseball diamond. He aspires to become a second “Red” Horner. Page Eighteen

®f)e Cfjtnook CLASS 1A IDRIS JENKINS, Didsbury. Idris is Wales’ contribution to this year ' s student body. He takes an active interest in sports and excels in hockey and baseball. His ability merited him a position on the Normal hockey team. History is his favorite subject while composition ranks a close second. WINSTON LIGGETT, Coronation. Winston had a brilliant academic record at Mount Royal Junior College last year. Tennis, rugby and swimming attract his attention in the field of sports. He adopts a very philosophical attitude towards life, and pursues the even tenor of his way. JOSEPH MARK, Champion. This proud husband and father received his education in schools in many parts of the province. He has also completed part of the Arts and En¬ gineering course at the University of Alberta. He is noted for his bridge playing and for his tardiness at classes. JOHN MAYELL, Calgary. Although John is very fond of sports and social affairs, he does not allow these activities to interfere with his studies. He was the very capable captain and centre of the School hockey team. Basketball, tennis, music and dancing are some of his other interests. GORDON MOW AT, Parkland. Gordie is one of those quiet young men who are frequently seen but seldom heard. He is a member of the Glee Club, revelling in part singing. He even acknowledges that psychology is interesting. We think that Gordie will make an excellent teacher and fittingly preside over some “Little Red Schoolhouse.” THOMAS MCDONALD, Loyalist. Good nature and amiability are two of this young man’s most valuable assets. He displays great interest in nature study, and is secretary of the Natural History Club. Sports also claim his attention, particularly hockey and basketball. LYLE NATTRASS, Manyberries. Lyle is a quiet yet energetic young man, well liked by his fellow students. During his High School days he acquired considerable knowledge of the flora and fauna of the Great Canadian Desert; hence we are not surprised to learn that nature study is his favorite study. GEORGE PECK, Calgary. Undaunted by the ponderous weight of assignments, George still finds time to be an interested member of the Dramatic and Glee Clubs. Mme. Browne strives to point out to him that he is not a basso profundo. A love of adventure excuses him for his deep delvings into the intricacies of chess. Page Twenty
