Tl-IE STAFF Central Collegiate staffs have always been outstanding for their high standard of teaching ability and their co-operation and readiness to aid in all school activities. Members of the staff have advanced to the highest ranks in their own and other professions. Dr. J. S. Huff, one-time member of the staff, is now the Deputy Minister of Education in Sas- katchewan. Not long after the opening of the University in 1909, three members of the Central staff were appointed by the Uni- versity authorities to fill various chairs. Dr. R. A. Wilson, who left Central to become Principal of the Regina Normal School, went to the University in 1915 as Head of the Department of English. Mr. A.. J. Pyke moved from our staff to be Principal of Nutana Collegiate, Saskatoon, and then was appointed to the Depart- ment of Mathematics. Dr. Ramsay, the teacher of Classics at Central for some time, is now in the Department of Classics in the University. Indeed when Hon. R. B. Bennett required a Minister of Agriculture it was to the West that he came and it was an ex- member of the Central staff, Major Robert Weir, whom he chose. There have been many changes in the Cent-ral Staff during the last twenty-five years but they still remain the competent, capable, carefully-selected group which has made Cent-ral famous. CHANGES IN STAFF The 1933-34 term brought three changes in our staff . Miss E. Death resigned just before the opening of the term to accept the position of managing a library in Vancouver. Mr. Rj. Staples was appointed to replace her. Mr. Staples has already carved himself a niche here. The Central Orchestra, of which he is the conductor, won the Western Canada High School Orchestra Cup at Winnipeg this year. Mr. Staples also conducted the Elgar Club operetta, The Wild Rose, which was such a success this spring. Miss Helena Wells, the principal's secretary for three years, left Central in September to continue her studies at the University of Saskatchewan. Owing to the increase in the size of the student body and the attendant increase of secretarial work, two secre- taries, Misses Pearle Canham and Gwen Coxall, were appointed at the beginning of 1933-34 term. 13

TI-IE STUDENTS' CCUNCIL This year saw the resurrection of a student body which figured prominently in the school from 1918 to 1922, namely the Students' Council. This organization, advised by Mr. Mac- Murchy and Mr. Robertson, is composed of the presidents of the forms and of the different school organizations, thus, a representa- tive body is assured. The Council has succeeded in outfitting the Rugby and Basketball teams with sweaters, and has made provision for next yearfs teams also. It has reformed the monetary and banking system of the school, has organized and financed a school paper, which is unanimously the best yet, and has sponsored several dances for the benefit of the Athletic Club and the Annual, not to mention that splendid event, the Christmas Concert. The Council also investigated the method of awarding Cys and found that although the Junior Track Team brought home the cup, they received no reward, while the Seniors did. Many such situations as this have been investigated and remedied, and the Council is only too willing to do its utmost, if the students will co-operate by suggesting the changes needed. For its first year, which is, of course, the most difficult, the Students' Council has done much to bring the Juniors and Seniors together, and to feed the ever-growing flame of School spirit. Many of our most energetic and trusted members are Seniors, and as we will not have their aid next year, may We take this opportunity of expressing our gratitude and appreciation. First comes our vivacious President herself, Hilda Leggett 3 next, the Editor of the Perroquet, Isabel Hutcheson, and then Gordon Robertson, the quiet, hard-working Treasurer of the Students' Council. George Page, Vice-President of the Council has also gained many friends for his sportsmanship and co-opera- tion, and Elsie Schick, in her unassuming way, has done a tre- mendous amount of work, especially on the Annual, for which we are deeply indebted to her. Alma Grant, Marion Westgate and Mary McCulloch were other members who were indefatigable in their attendance and always helpful with their suggestions. To all these then, let us extend our sincere regrets at losing them, our heartiest thanks, and our best wishes for a happy and suc- cessful career. Noni, POVVELL, Secretary. 14
