Lynne Sampson There is no wealth but life. Lyime is oirr class science and math whiz! No mad scientist, she is very down to earth and this quality, at times, has given the class many a chuckle. She is one of the original young ladies who has graced Elmwood with her attendance since Grade Six. And that ' s a long time! Lynne is oxa only classmate to have more classes with Ashbury than without- -no easy trick. The high point of her school week comes Wednesday afternoons when she can fly down the ski slopes at Fortune. An expert skier and tennis player, Lynne is a sports addict. As Financial co- editor of this year ' s Samara , she has daimtlessly persued advertisements and patrons for the Samara ' s pages. That ' s no easy trick, either! Next Septembei; Lynn will be leaving Ottawa to study business administration at Queen ' s. We know that Lynne ' s abilities and her friendly good humor will bring her much success. She has been a loyal Elmwood supporter and we wish her well. Good fortune Lynne ! Ingrid Sorensen : Prefect and Fry House Head That my joy gives joy, my hope gives hope and that 1 can commimicate the Spirit living in me not by what 1 say but how I say it . For five years, Ingrid ' s has been a familiar face around the halls of Elmwood. In all the time that we have known Ingrid, she has always been con- cerned for the well being of her class mates, fellow students and for those beyond the school boiuidries. Ingrid has worked tirelessly for the benefit of the mentally retarded. Through her many talks to the school, on public speaking days, on this subject, she has been the students ' conscience. She has also found time to be an avid participant in the Gilbert and Sullivan productions and was a former Elmy winner for Best Supporting Actor, in her excellent portrayal of the Steward in St. Joan . Ingrid has proved to be an excellent House Head this year; enthusiastic, patient and determined that Fry shall triumph and win at least one cup in ' 72. Next year, Ingrid would like to explore the field of psychology at Queen ' s or Trent and from there, devote her time to either nursing the handicapped or teaching the mentally retarded. Good luck Ingrid, keep smiling and the world will smile with you.

Anne MacDonald: Vice-Head of Keller Loneliness remembers what happiness forgets Annie is one of the few remaining members of the entering class of ' 69 ' . Throughout the years, Anne has proved herself a stalwart supporter of all of Elmwood ' s activities. Since Arme received her driver ' s license, she has been seen frequently whip- ping up and down Springfield Road, between her job and classes. Her questioning and probing mind has been a valuable asset in class discussions. She can be remembered for her mean drive inbadminton, her equally challenging game of tennis and her penchant for fresh air. Doors and a window do not a home make, n ' est-ce pas Anne? She has also been a dedicated French devotee and looks forward to the day when she will be an accomplished linguist. Anne has been an asset to her House in inter-house volleyball and basketball competitions, as well as being a ski enthusiast. Next year it ' s heigh-ho and off to Algonquin (or France) she goes! Bon chance Anne and keep wearing that simny smile! 11 Jane Micklethwaite: Prefect and House Head of Keller The distance is nothing, it is only the first step that is difficult. For four years now, Jane has been a happy addition to school life. She has always been ready to help in festivities, organizing things to do on rainy Wed- nesday afternoons and working with the jiuiiors on various secret projects for the House. This year, Janey hit the hills for the first time and though an early casualty of the skiing season, she remains determined to persevere. Always a good sport, she stands proudly behind Keller ' s successful endeavours. An excellent sewer, Jane passed many Wednesday afternoons sewing her spring wardrobe. Advocate of bake sales and money making schemes, Jane has helped the treasury grow. A math bug seems to have bitten her; two math courses in one year! We ' re minting a special medal for her bravery. Also taking two Latins, she can tell you of the cultures of ancient Greece and Rome. A blonde head of hair and an enviable complexion coupled with a friendly personality, make up Jane ' s charms. Fiddley dee, fiddley dum, it ' s off to Queens she hopes to run! We are sure that her gift of organi- zation and her fund raising abilities will be an asset wherever she goes. Good luck, good-bye and God Bless.

Lesley Forrester Goodness is something so simple: always live For others, never to see one ' s own advantage. Lesley is our fast wheeling girl about town. This is her first year at Elmwood but it hasn ' t taken her long to establish her reputation among all forms. Through her family tree, hung on one of the high- est branches, is her famed uncle, Long John Silver and lower down, her cousin, opera singer Miss Maureen Forester. Lesley will be remembered for her modern lingo, incessant shutterbugging and musical abilities. Les has been a flamboyant mem- ber of the basketball and volleyball teams and is truly a jack -of-all -trades, proving herself to be a talented photographer, composer of mi:isic and a sports enthusiast.

The best always and we ' ll miss you, Lesley! 13 Shelley Conder Time flows too slow Early morning spares frequently find Shelly braving the cold morning air, butt in hand, sitting out on the picnic bench in the smoking area. She is the only girl in the class who actually talks with her hands! Last year. Miss Condor was an active par- ticipant of House sports. However, the current year finds her totally absorbed in extra curricular ac- tivities. Six foot two, eyes of blue . . . has any- body seen her guy? An avid English student. Shelly has decided to employ her talents in the field of journalism and plans to persue her interests at Carleton. Our very best goes with you Shelly- - hope to be reading you soon!
