At Christmas, Fry was lucky enough o win both the • ' clothes drive ind the House Collections. Our play ' The Little Red School House ' )Ut here the other houses had the )etter of us. Our other achieve- ments have been the winning of the enior badminton cup and also, last jut not least, the House Shield, iwarded to the House with the most tars. This was won by Fry the second year running. In September, 1946, Fry started out vith 22 members; we lost five during the year, but finished up with 29 in June. We were very sorry to lose Luciana Kershaw-Casati and also Flor- ence Gherardi when she returned to Jew York; also Eugenia Castelblanco who returned to her home in Chile and Mary Pa tteson and Henrietta Scott both of whom went back to England. We were very glad to receive these new members during the year: Judy Hargreaves and Margaret Howard of Ottawa, and Judy McCulloch return- ing to Elmwood after a year and a half in New Zealand. We also wel- comed one new staff member - Miss MacLelland. In the House play competition at Christmas, Fry won by presenting ' ' Thirty Minutes in a Street but unfortunately we lost out to Keller and Nightingale in the cloth- ing collections.

SAMARA 13 Keller House Notes 1945 The members of Keller House ex- tend a warm welcome to Miss MacLean and Mrs.Hahcock and also to all the new girls and juniors who have join- ed our ranks in the past two years. During the school year 1945-1946, we were somewhat handicapped by the small number of senior representa- tives in our House. The same was true this year. Our senior basketball team, in 1945, defeated Nightingale but was in turn beaten by Fry. Unfortunately we also lost the badminton tourna- ment, but we had more luck in the House plays. Our presentation of scenes from 1066 and All That ' ' obtained first place. We were beaten by Fry and Nightingale in both the House Collection and on Sports ' Day. but we did manage to win the tennis shield. Incidentally it was the fifth year in succession that the name • ' Keller • appeared on that shield. In 1946 , although we were not lucky enough to come first in either the House Plays or the House Collections, we did obtain second place in each. This year.weputon Rose Latulippe a French Canadian play by E. W.Devlin. In both 1945 and 1946, every member of Keller co-operated to the fullest extent, with the head of the House in plays and collections. At the time of writing, basketball, badminton and tennis have not yet been played off, but we are going to do our, very best. - 1946 and 1946 - 1947 HOUSE MEMBERS 1945 - 1946 Fhrlippa Maclaren Head of House Suzanne Mess Prefect Daphne Wbrtele House Senior Peggy Edwards, Lois White, Mercedei George, Barbara Tobias, Rose Alexander, Betsy Alexandor, Averil Eaton, Shirley Heintzman, Margot Leonard, Mary Jane Mamder, Phyllis Mayburry, Shirley Smith, Joan Toller, Bernice Cowling, Christine Meyj es.
