From near and far they came for one sole purpose - to uncover our latent talents, a job of such magnanamous proportions that at first it seemed of the most impossible nature. A brave group they were, taking on the task with no hint of complaint or frustration. Would they succeed was the big question then. Today it is still the same question. The answer lies in our response to their task, a response which will be gratefully appreciated by these task masters. 7

Registrar ' s Report H. R, Kirkconnel Registrar It would seem that those who have the privilege of expressing a few thoughts in Durham College ' s first Yearbook have an obligation to pos- terity. With this responsibility in mind, I direct these words to those pioneer spirits who were fortunate enough to be in the right place at the right time and so formed our very first student body. As a starting point, I would like to express my admiration for those students, young in heart if not in actual age, who have come back to school from jobs in business and industry. I know how difficult this can be and I only wish I could siphon off a small amount of your motivation and inject it into some of your younger compatriots. Next, a word of appreciation to those students who have spent a great deal of their time in organizing the various functions that went on in the College this year. It has been a pleasure working with you, and while we did not always look at problems in exactly the same way, I think you have accomplished a great deal in this your first year. To those of you who have done well in your academic work, congrat- ulations! I hope you continue to do so in the balance of your programme. I assure you that by performing excellently here, you cannot help but improve your chances of success in your chosen field of endeavour. To those few who have come to the College as a comfortable place to stay during the winter, I offer my profound condolences. I am sure that most of you, in later years, will wish you had done it differently. 6
