MISS M. CORBOULD House Mistress HODGES HOUSE Mr. J. Cook House Master GIRLS - HODGES HOUSE Because the almighty Hodges House possesses superiority, strength, greatness, talent, and won¬ derful sportsmanship, this year it has taken com¬ passion for the other lower houses and allowed them a few extra points. However, it is definitely a proven fact that any Hodgesite can outrun, outplay, and out jump any of the other unfor¬ tunate souls who are not a member of our elite group. Nonetheless the unconquerable members of Hodges House were not able to restrain their true ability in all fields. The Freshman girls won volleyball and also placed first in their division in speedball, along with the Juniors. A special thanks to our House Mistress, Miss Corbould, and to all the prefects and team captains who worked with the usual Hodges proficiency and ability. Although this year we were sympathetic and took pity on the other inferior Houses, next year we will strive to suppress our undying gener¬ osity. HODGES Sharp increases in subversive elements from the three other major powers force us to request the moving up of reserves. I realize that we have as yet withheld them so as to maintain a reasonable balance of power (and thereby re¬ tain interest in the House System), but the sabotage has become unbearable to even the most pacifistic of our ranks. Staff Advisor Cook has given his full support to the move, as has co-commandant Forsythe. I respectfully submit this request in the hope that we be given, in effect, the right to hit back. We would be in¬ terested to learn the official reasoning behind the decision not to win the house trophy over the last several years. The men are beginning to ask questions.

MISS I. McCRINDLE House Mistness MUIRHEAD HOUSE MR. N. CURRIE House Captain For the second time in three years, Muirhead House has shown its great superiority over the other three houses. The unconquerable spirit of the boys has led them to a clean sweep of most events. All divisions won their football leagues, while, due to some unfortunate luck, we won only four of the six basketball divisions. Even though it was already inevitable that we had won the House Trophy, nevertheless the gallant men swept through Field Day, leaving their les- sers in their wake. This triumph, it is to be noted, is only the first in a series of victories that will make the House Trophy an annual event for Muirhead. I would like to thank the prefects, Ray From (Primary), Dave McCaw (Junior), Bob Keely (Freshmen) and Fred DeKoning (Varsity) for their hard work and devotion in bringing Muirhead to the front. Opponents beware! Muirhead will have the trophy for many years to come. The girls of mighty Muirhead House will al¬ ways go undefeated! With all our intelligence and superiority, no other house can match us. We are envied and always will be. Congratulations to all of the teams who showed their usual power and finished on top. One realizes, of course, that this year the odd Muirhead team did go down to defeat, but this can be explained by the underhanded methods of our dishonourable opponents, and the in¬ fluenced referees who turned cowardly in the moment of truth. Thanks goes to my House Mistress, Miss McCrindle, my prefects Marlene Schumacher (Pri¬ mary), Pat Daniels (Junior), Lindsay Greening (Intermediate) and Mary Parker (Senior) and all the girls who worked to bring Muirhead on to fame and fortune.
