tEfjc Ctnnook CLASS 1A MAITLAND PERRIN, Didsbury. Maitland takes life very seriously. He is a member of the Dramatic Society, and has joined the Glee Club in an endeavour to increase his talent along musical lines. Later he plans to go to Varsity to take a course in chemical engineering. NORMAN PUTNAM, Medicine Hat. This tall, good-natured young man is a favorite with the members of his class. He is fond of all sports, and takes an active part in basketball. Norman’s favorite hobby is walking in the parks, looking for new bio¬ logical specimens. He is also keenly interested in junior literature. SPENCER RAE, Medicine Hat. Spencer was an honor student in High School, where it is claimed he made some original (?) contributions to chemical science. He is president of the Badminton Club, and also is interested in hockey. He is present in some classes in body but not in spirit. SAMUEL RICHARDS, Hillcrest Mines. Sam’s interests lie chiefly along scientific lines, and he hopes later to pursue his scientific studies at university. He takes an active part in both basket¬ ball and hockey. His chief hobbies are playing the violin and acting as a mechanic. JOSEPH SAUDER, Lethbridge. Joe spent a year at Mount Royal Junior College after graduating from high school. He amuses the members of Class 1A with his views on psychology. As Speaker of the Mock Parliament, he displayed a keen grasp of parliamentary procedure. It is to be hoped that he will realize his political ambitions. REED SHIELDS, Warner. Reed is perfectly at home on the basketball court, the softball diamond, and in the water. He is not a woman hater, and is very fond of social affairs. Lesson assignments seem not to have been neglected because of outside interests. WAYNE SHUPE, Carstairs. Wayne is a very agreeable young man, full of fun and good cheer. He is interested in all sports, especially basketball. His weakness is art, though he knows beauty when he sees it. We wonder how many of his classmates have heard him play the alto horn. HENRY THIESSEN, Namaka. Henry entered Normal with an excellent academic record. He is a young man of grim determination, as is clearly indicated by the stern set of his jaw. He is intensely interested in sports, and has taken an active part in athletics as a member of a team in the house league. Page Twenty-One

®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

Francis is modest in stature and modest by nature. His most momentous accomplishment while at Normal was the securing of several A s during city practice.
