NIGHTINGALE HOUSE

Jl(uUe Senior cund Mo-fUtoA . Josephine Stone : Hang sorrow; care will kill a cat — And therefore lefs be merry! Josephine, commonly known as Jo was made monitor at the beginning of this year and now acts as a first-class house senior. She also left 5B and jumped to 6M with such an unper- turbed manner that we would say she has done much in many fields. Her basketball talent also flourished this year and she played guard on the senior school team. But Jo has something that is rather rare — a personal vocabulary. Goodness knows how many verbs have been of her construction and to the ordinary ones she has added an O . Nevertheless we credit ourselves with excellent translation. We hope Venezuela will not keep Josephine home, as we are looking forward to her return in September. Jennifer Woollcombe: E ' en though vanquished, she could argue still Jenny has just completed a busy and prosperous year as head of Keller — she is also managing editor of our magazine. We can usually find her in the cloakroom trying to shove un- willing intermediates outside, or in the dining room trying to keep them quiet before dinner. She is always willing to lend a helping hand with any school activity — from turning the skipping rope for the juniors (although she gets her turn) to portraying the unforgettable Miriam in our Ashbury-Elmwood play Dear Ruth. But of all her accomplishments this year, driving seems to be the most successful — she even chose her own instructor! And, again, she made the school basketball team as well as keeping that high academic average. Jennifer is joining us again next year, and we know it will be as successful as the former years.

SAMARA 9 THIS year, we have been very happy to add six new names to our list of members. They were: Lorna Travaglini, Margaret Dickson, Tina Tarantour, Frances Cabeldu, Sandra Graham and Mickey Manion. They have shown themselves to be full of the good competitive spirit that builds a house. Although we did not quite succeed in win- ning the houseplays, The Ghost Story did ac- complish our real aim: to entertain the audi- ence in every possible way. But we were not very lucky in the house collections, and only managed a close third. It was in the sports field, however, that we did justice to our house. We won both the senior basketball and the senior volleyball. And although we came second in the senior badminton singles and third in the doubles, we claim first place in both junior singles and junior doubles. Senior Basketball Forwards: Lorna Travaglini, Susan Richard- son, Sally Wright, Janet Hanson, Nancy Perry.

WHEN we returned in the fall most of our seniors of last year had left but we welcomed nine new members in their places. We are also glad to have Miss MacCallum in Keller. For weeks before the House Collections we were seldom seen without knitting needles. We produced a fine showing but unfortun- ately Nightingale ' s was just a little bigger and better. Meg Reynolds was Sports Captain, but ow- ing to no fault of hers, we have not as yet excelled in the sports world. Jane Mulholland and Sheila McCormick won the Senior bad- minton. We still have great hope for Sports Day. Our house play. The Golden Doom, was excellently worked out and well received. I would like to thank all the girls in Keller for working so hard and so well together, and for making this year such a happy one for all of us.
