GTfje Cfnnoofe CLASS 1 B CHRISTOPHER FLANAGAN, Medicine Hat. As business manager of the Year Book, Chris’s Irish wit, together with a bold and plausible tongue, has been to our advantage. He is prominent in dramatic, social, musical and political activities and can surely boast for himself a successful term if success is measured by the esteem in which he is held by all. HENRI FORGUES, Three Hills. Henri is a quiet, pleasant chap who is always smiling. Before coming to Normal he attended Mount Royal College. He is an active member of the Natural History and Discussion Clubs. In class he has proven himself a history student, being one of Mr. McKerricher’s select students who helped conduct elections. DOUGLAS HOLETON, Olds. Douglas, the renowned fullback from the north, laments that Normal School has no rugby team. It will be recalled that in January he tried to bring the 1 890 ear muffs back to style. His perfect physique will be remembered by all who knew him, and his bass voice will ring in our hearts for a long time. REGINALD JACKA, Medicine Hat. We owe many thanks to Reg for his honesty and goodwill in holding the position of treasurer. He must have been a bank manager at one time. He possesses a quiet and thoughtful manner which sets a good example to the wilder talent of 1B. Reg is a brilliant student, and a promising teacher. GRANT JENSEN, Cardston. Grant is the type of person one would welcome as a pal. Sensibly quiet, but not too quiet; level-headed, with a nicely turned sense of humor. An admirer of and participant in all sports, and one of the “Romans” who helped IB win the Literary Cup with the extravaganza “Julius Caesar.” JAMES KIDD, Nordegg. Jimmie is one of the most cheerful and mild-mannered members of the class. In his ho pie in the shadow of the Rockies he has gained distinction as a successful hunter of moose, mountain goat, and other big game. He is also fond of skiing and other mountain sports. KARL KOSIOR, B.Sc., Jenner. Karl is a person who enjoys the reputation of speaking only when he has something worth-while to say. This may possibly be the result of his training as an engineer. We feel that Karl will obey the Latin dictum of making haste slowly. DOUGLAS MARSHALL, Taber. The man whose pleasant yet business-like campaign speech, together with his likeable personality, won him the position of chairman of the Athletic Committee for first term. He is an ardent lover of sports, participating in many games, and specializing in basketball and hockey. He is also a promising member of the Glee Club. Page Twenty-Seven

)t Cfnnoofe CLASS 1 B JOHN AITKEN, Medicine Hat. His secretarial work showed marked success, both as class secretary during the first term, and as secretary of the Students ' Association during the second term. Outstanding among his varied interests is dramatics, and as an enthusiastic member of the Dramatic Club he was chosen to play the part of “Coade” in the presentation of “Dear Brutus.” VICTOR APPLETON, Medicine Hat. Vic’s talents lie mostly in the field of athletics. He has been one of the outstanding players on the hockey team, and is quite at home on the basketball floor and the baseball diamond. This athletically-minded young man displays a decided partiality for blondes. JACK BANISTER, Okotoks. A winning smile and a radiant personality have won for Jack a host of friends. Apart from his excellent academic record, he has served as first term chairman of the Literary Committee, and second term chairman of the Social Committee, with distinctive executive ability. With equal un¬ selfishness he has assisted the Glee Club. Hockey is his favorite sport. RULON BINGHAM, Magrath. Rulon is the one who will always stand out in our minds through his back- to-nature movement. Taking an active part in the Dramatic Club, Glee Club, and basketball activities, he displays the qualities that have made him esteemed by all as chairman of the Social Committee for the first term. JOHN CALDER, Medicine Hat. During the first term John held the position of secretary of the Students’ Association and during the second term was president of the same organ¬ ization. He filled these posts with the greatest success and gave freely of his time and energy to matters concerned with the welfare of the student body. DONALD DAVIDSON, Edmonton. Donald has many “interests” here at Normal. He affords a great deal of amusement for 1 B by his humorous remarks in Health Education. How¬ ever, aside from his wit, he shows his intellectual capacity by the high marks which he makes in the various examinations. ALEXANDER DEDERER, Medicine Hat. This brilliant and energetic young man from the “Great Canadian Desert” seems to be inseparable from the “sailor baritone” in 1 1 A. “Alex” plays a steady game of basketball in which his small stature proves to be an advantage rather than a handicap. RALPH DRAPER, Hillcrest. Ralph entertained us with an enjoyable rendition of some popular songs on one of the volunteer literary programmes. Hockey is his favorite soort. He plays left wing on the Normal team, and was a member of the junior team in his home town. He is very popular with his classmates. Page Twenty-Six
