Fage Four THE SPARTALOGUE 1952 (teen Cltfabert) II April 21, 1926, at Bruton Street in London ' s west end. Princess Elizabeth Alexandra Mary presented hersell as the first child of the Duke and Duchess of York. The Duke, second son of the then reigning monarch—George V—was a quiet, unassuming, likeable man. The attractive Duchess with a friend-begetting smile was a daughter of the Scottish Earl of Strath¬ more. Fortunately. Princess Elizabeth inherited many of the enviable qualities of her father and mother. She acquired additional attributes through affectionate and understanding par¬ ental guidance. As a result, we are proud to proclaim as our queen a young woman of outstanding character and accomplishments. At the age of four, the chubby little girl with the deep blue eyes and golden brown hair named herself Lilibet” in a sincere effort to say Elizabeth . To the little princess, King George V was Grandpa England and the Prince of Wales was Uncle Bertie . A happy, care-free childhood was hers. As Lilibet reached her tenth birthday, Grandpa England passed away and Uncle Bertie became Edward VIII. In December 1936, her father ascended the throne, and the princess became heiress presumptive. Though only eleven, she stood proudly beside her father, King George VI, on the balcony of Buckingham Palace as the masses acclaimed him following the coronation ceremonies. From this point on, life for Elizabeth took on a serious aspect. To supplement her well- rounded education, there began the intensive study of constitutional history and of matters pertinent to the responsibilities in life that she would be expected to assume. The young princess graciously accepted her duties with unmistakable devotion and seriousness. On the eve of her sixteenth birthday, the princess granted her first official audience by receiving the Colonel of the Grenadier Guards. The following day, the regiment, of which she was honorary colonel, was inspected by Her Royal Highness. During the terrifying war years, Princess Elizabeth became patroness of many national and patriotic societies, attended launchings and dedications, visited areas of war disasters in her homeland, and endeared herself to the hearts of the people that one day she would rule. She was an officer in the Auxiliary Territorial Service and was actively associated in the Girl Guide movement. Official assignments took her to Ireland and Scotland. As the princess neared her twenty-first birthday, the world became keenly interested in her coming marriage to Lieutenant Philip Mountbatten of the Royal Navy—November 20, 1947. She became the mother of Prince Charles on October 14, 1948 and of Princess Anne on August 15, 1950. Princess Elizabeth and her personable husband, Prince Philip, flew to Canada on October 8, 1951. The Royal Tour extended from coast to coast and included an official visit to Wash¬ ington, D.C. On the westward phase of the tour, the Royal train pulled into Windsor in the early hours of October 15. The city was gaily decorated, and the day was warm and sunny. Seeing their Highnesses was a memorable event that will linger long in the mind of Windsor ' s citizens—especially the children, who were given every opportunity for a real close-up . In Kenya Colony, February 6, just as she had begun her long trip to Australia, Princess Elizabeth received the shocking news that her beloved father had passed away unexpectedly in his slumber. She wept as any devoted daughter might, but regained composure imme¬ diately. She was now a Queen! Inspired by that inherited devotion to duty, Elizabeth realized that now she must accept the arduous task which had been so nobly borne by her late father. Grief-stricken, she and her husband left immediately by plane for London. As she stepped on English soil. Her Royal Highness realized that her Royal Duties came first. Straightway, she became engaged in signing state docu ments, taking the oath of accession and hearing herself proclaimed Queen with the promise, I shall always work— to uphold constitutional government and to advance the happiness and prosperity of my peoples. The Queen ' s first state engagement, as head of the Royal House, was to attend her father ' s funeral. When the Queen decides, the date for the coronation will be set. In Westminster Abbey, she will sit in the Coronation Chair over the Ancient Stone of Scone and will be crowned Queen Elizabeth II, by Grace of God Queen of Great Britain, Ireland and the British Dom¬ inions beyond the seas, Queen, Defender of the Faith. Send her victorious Happy and glorious Long to reign over us God save the Queen! —Morley A. Pattison. ■‘THE SPARTALOGUE” — 1 9 5 2 Pa ge Five ij. 1 . ©ueen €U?atjetfc II Page Six “THE SPARTALOGUE 1952 Our Best Foot — Where Is It? The alarm is sounded. Panic seizes the public. Immediately a series of investigations is embarked upon, reports gathered, statistics compiled. What is it this time? At present, we are the topic under discus¬ sion—we, the teen-agers. A sociological problem they call us. We are, at first glance, wild, irresponsible, and a menace to society—not all of us, granted, but such an astounding proportion that a whole nation is roused. Parents and educators take stock, while our own complacency is shaken. First of all let us look at the charges—delinquency, dope addition, reckless driving, immorality. Juvenile delinquency, we are told, is on the way up. Still, the publicity given to teen-age crime greatly over-rates its prevalence. For each baby-sitter that goes berserk there are thousands of others who fill their jobs compet¬ ently. Nor are we all dope addicts as some would believe; we thank God for endowing us with enough sense to realize the usurping power of drugs. As for immorality—this again is a serious charge. However, in all fairness to young people, it must be admitted that sensationalism makes headlines and as a result a small number of immoral teen-agers are destroying the good name of a much larger group of God-fearing boys and girls. To reckless driving we are forced to plead guilty. The tragic evidence is overwhelming. Uncontrolled speed and the gamble on life are not cheap thrills when the toll is taken. However, the madmen at the wheel are usually well-known to their parents or friends, and as such they should be forbidden the use of a car. In their hands a vehicle becomes a weapon. If we would help to curb reckless driving, we would be clearing a black reputation, deserved by a minority but borne by all of us. With these charges ag ainst us, are we to condemn ourselves as a generation of failures? Emphatically no, we have not failed yeti True, we are starting out with a black eye. No one knows better than we what our faults and limitations are; but we also know that, headlines, statistics, and surveys to the con¬ trary, our ideals are as high as those of every other generation! We must realize that the whole story does not lie in the headlines and that the same stamp does not stick to all of us. Generalizing can become a dangerous habit. There are always heroes to match the villains, success stories for the failures. What path will we, who are the constant source of anxiety to parents and teachers, follow? If we cannot promise to be brilliant successes, each and every one, we can at least confound the alarmists by becoming solid citizens. —Pat Rigg, Editor. Acknowledgments We try to thank in this section those people whose efforts have been untiring in the composition of the 1952 Spartalogue. First, because they are the first, we thank our advisory editors. Miss Scarfone and Miss Harris. With unlimited patience and enthusiasm they have guided the staff through all the trials and tribulations of compiling material for the year book. Without the financial aid of our advertisers, there would be no Spartalogue. Their ads enable us to sell you a $2.50 year book for 75 cents. We hope the students will patronize these advertisers at every opportunity. The advertising committee deserves credit for soliciting the advertisements. We express our gratitude to the English department, and especially to Miss Munnings, for the stories and poems that appear in the literary section. Pictures make the year book an everlasting treasure to all of us. Tom Noble has given freely of his time to look after the taking and developing of all these photographs. Special praise also goes to the bud¬ ding young artists whose sketches decorate the magazine ' s pages. The material which we write in our scrawling, illegible handwriting is deciphered by Commercial stu¬ dents who willingly take on the task of typing it. Miss Scarfone has found Irene Stretavsky an especially cheerful typist. —The Editors. “THE SPARTALOGUE 1 1952 Page Seven SPARTALOGUE STAFF Sealed: Judy Steadman. Eto Patterson. Second Row: Tom Noble.

Pictured above are the secondary school principals with Mr. Noble and Mr. Robinson, after a tasty chicken dinner served by Miss Grant ' s Home Economics class. Staff Changes This year ' s addition to the staff from the University of Western Ontario is Mr. Krol, who teaches history and physical education. Mr. Krol, a star athlete during his high school years at Kennedy Collegiate, has now taken over the coaching of the senior basket¬ ball team and has been a great help to Mr. Steadman with the senior football team. We sincerely hope that Mr. Krol will enjoy his work at Sandwich. Mrs. George Boyd graciously consented to come to Sandwich as a half-day teacher . She has after¬ noon classes of French. By the way, the little fellow who lent his talent and personality to the Mikado cast was none other than Mrs. Boyd ' s young son Stewey . Miss Marian Ellis left in her little Hillman Minx to take a new position at Leaside Collegiate in Toronto. All of us knew Miss Ellis as a good friend and excellent teacher. Everyone joins in wishing her luck and happiness in the future. Another popular teacher who has left our midst is Mrs. Pressnail, better known to the student body as Miss Spracklin. We wish her luck in her new position at Brooklin Continuation School. •‘THE SPARTALOGUE” — 1952 Page Fifteen Commencement 1951 All honour and glory shone upon our Upper School Graduates of 1951 as they returned to receive their diplomas at Commencement.

Ecclesia Executive Page Eighteen “THE SPARTALOGUE 1952 Our literary department has been overflowing with the creative efforts of budding writers and the lyrical lines of aspiring poets. Thus it turned out to be quite a problem to narrow our choice down to accommodate the limited space in the Spartalogue. In the short story category, Sandy Robertson ' s Donachie Castle was a unanimous choice of the judges, who also placed Missing—One Life , second and Deflated Ego , third. The Ruby Necklace and A Ghost I Would Like to Meet received honourable mention. The choice of poems was harder to make because of the profuse contributions by 13A. Nitehood by John Lindsay, Freedom , The Vigil , Home , and Mine Is Forever were finally selected. On t ' other side the village lies The place where Louis ' uncle tries To shoo away the fountain flies, And not succeeding, Help , he cries; Where? Down at Charlie ' s Spot. Four brick walls, a roof of shingles. Make the place where Charlie mingles Malted milks and juke-box jingles, And known as Charlie ' s Spot. Little George stops his game To see the speed laws put to shame. As though ' twere meant to kill and maim, A shrieking hot-rod trailing flame Goes round to Charlie ' s Spot. There at Charlie ' s polished counter Loafs a lad who almost never Hopes for chance to go much further Than to Charlie ' s Spot. His glistening key-chain glitters free Like a neon sign we see.

Nitehood “THE SPARTALOGUE” 1952 Page Nineteen Donachie Castle (First Prize) On a desolate mountainside in the Scottish High¬ lands stands a little-known castle. For decades, yes even centuries, it has looked down upon the heather in the valley with its stern and impassive counten¬ ance. Through its cold, dark eyes it has seen feudal warfare, clan strife and more recently the erection of the village of Glen Tay. In vain the winds and rains have beaten upon the weathered oaken door and sought entrance at the slit-like windows. Indeed, its battlements and slate roofs are impervious even to the sunbeams which glitter upon the swift-running mountain streams nearby. Perhaps within its interior there dwells a soul as black as the waters of its sullen moat for it has witnessed deeds of incomparable horror. The castle had never been more than a thing of remote interest to the inhabitants of Glen Tay. It had, as a matter of fact, become just a part of the scenery to them; that is, up to the time of :he arrival of Cameron Donachie. Angus MacTavish, the village blacksmith, and Lachlan MacLachlan, the water carrier, were talking together in front of Angus ' shop on that eventful October day. Did ye hear the news mon? asked Angus. Aye, replied Lachlan. They say that the last of fhe Donachies comes here to-day tae look at the castle. I heard one of the men up to the inn say that he may live there alone.” Losh monl I wouldna do it fer all the gowd in the world, said Angus. Nor I, added Lachlan. Well I remember my father telling me how Donald Donachie, Cameron ' s grandfather, took the castle from Campbell Macbride, narrated Angus. Campbell, they say, was a bad mon. He took the Donachie cattle and in doing it he murdered two of the Donachies. In a clan war the Donachies took the castle and Donald threw Macbride into the dun¬ geons. Later when Macbride was hanged he laid a curse upon the Donachies. Aye, said Lachlan, he swore that all of the Donachies would die violently and so they have. Now Cameron Donachie is returning to the castle where Campbell Macbride uttered that curse. As they were thus conversing, they were ap¬ proached by a young man accoutred in garb which identified him as an Oxford scholar. He was of medium stature and weight and bore himself with an air of gentility. The film of dust which covered his clothes, and was especially prominent on his boots, gave evidence oi a recent journey. On seeing the young man Angus turned to greet him. Can either of you gentlemen direct me to the Donachie castle? queried the youthful stranger. Aye mon, that we can, replied Angus, but we ' re loath tae do it. But say I ye must be young Cameron Donachie. Yes, I am he, answered the young man. Mon, dinna go up to the castle. I fear for what may happen to ye there, said Angus. Oh, don ' t worry about me, rejoined Donachie. I assure you that I am able to take care of myself. Besides I won ' t have time to worry about foolish superstitions. I will be engaged in intense mathe¬ matical study for the next two weeks. The castle is the ideal place for study. I shall have absolute quiet there. Weel noo mon, if ye ' re going up tha ' s nay much I can do tae stop ye, said Angus. But if we dinna see you about in a week or two well be up there. Thank you for your interest in me, but your fears are ill founded, replied Donachie. Now if you will show me the way I will be off. I must begin work immediately. Angus left Cameron Donachie at the foot of the narrow trail which leads to the entrance of the castle. Donachie walked swiftly up the paths and soon found himself standing in front of the heavy oak door. Drawing a large hand-wroughi key from his luggage he inserted it in the rusted lock. A loud click follow¬ ed and the door slowly and creakingly swung open of its own accord as though bidding him enter. The interior of the castle was shrouded in complete dark¬ ness. Donachie entered, struck a match and lit two candles. By the dim and flickering light he was able to ascertain that he stood in the common room of the castle. Seeing a doorway nearby, he picked up one of the candles and, with the aid of its unstable light, made his way to the doorway. On opening the door he discovered a bed chamber. In one corner stood a massive bed. On its ornate headboard he read the words Campbell Macbride . Well, he mused, to prove how foolish those superstitions are I ' ll sleep in this bed. If the old cattle thief should happen to come in during the night, I ' m sure that he won ' t mind my being here. It ' s a large bed and there is sufficient room for both of us. At this thought Donachie burst into gales of laugh¬ ter, but these subsided as quickly as they had begun. Very strange, thought Donachie, why my laugh¬ ter didn ' t re-echo from the walls. One would think there would be a thousand echoes in a place such as this. My laughter was smothered on the air as though the proverbial wet blanket were cast upon it. He did not give this much further thought, however, for he soon found himself occupied in preparing a place for study. For the next two days he was lost in the intricacies of progressions and variations and was entirely oblivious to his surroundings. Both nights he stumbled wearily to bed and no sooner was his head upon the pillow than he was fast asleep. On the afternoon of the third day, tiring of his work, he decided to look through the castle. Following a long corridor which ran off the common room, he suddenly came upon a large room which he judged by its furnishings to be a banquet hall. A large painting which hung from one of the walls immediately captured his attention. Donachie strode across the room to the picture and, removing the dust from part of the frame, he un¬ covered a small brass plate which bore the words Campbell Macbride . Well, muttered Donachie, now we shall see what the old thief looked like. On saying this, he proceeded to remove the heavy layer of dust which covered the portrait. (Continued on Page 43) Page Twenty “THE SPARTALOGUE — 1952 The Chain (Second Prize) The sun was a molten ball beating down unmerci¬ fully on the miserable galley slaves. Huddled in front of the battered oars, they presented a pitiful spectacle, their emaciated, deformed bodies, wracked with pain, and their bony legs held fast by massive, rusted chains. Antonio winced as he drew back his oar, for his back had been flayed almost to ribbons by the cruel whip wielded by Michael Garth, the malicious guard. Pausing to gain a few seconds’ rest, he was forced back to the oar by the raucous voice of Garth accompanied by a sear of pain ripping his back. He strained in exquisite agony, pulling, pull¬ ing, at the oars. Year after year this had gone on: a pathetic group of men, now become mindless machines, with one goal in life—to pull and strain at those rough splintered oars. Each man thought only of the thick, heavy-linked chain that kept him from a happy life and bound him to suffering and pain. From his appearance it was not hard to discern that Antonio was Italian. A still-powerful, muscular body, swarthy skin, and a mop of thick, black, curly hair set above dark, piercing eyes betrayed his origin. Now he was bent and twisted, his back dis¬ playing half-healed scars mingled with fresh purple welts which oozed great drops of blood. Sweat stood out shining on his brow and upon his body and the bodies of his unfortunate companions. He begged Garth to give him water, but Garth only replied, You ' ll get no water, you filthy swine, until sundown, so keep pulling!” Antonio stared at him, seething with suppressed rage. He stared at the well-fed body with the rounded shoulders and squat legs. Garth ' s face was flaccid and pasty in spite of hours spent in the hot sun and crisp breezes, and his eyes were red- veined and puffy. His broken teeth showed in an evil grin as he put his face close to Antonio: You ain ' t so high and mighty now, are you? I guess me and my whip here took you down a peg or two—thinking you should be fed better food than bread and water and getting the other fools to back you up. Well, I guess we learned you the hard way. As the leering countenance came closer to Antonio and the liquor-laden breath beat against his face, he could endure it no longer. With almost super¬ human strength born of desperation, he tore the chain loose and swung it at Garth. A succession of gaping red wounds appeared on the pasty face where the chain had struck, and the astonished Garth, his mouth open with amazement, fell with a thud on the deck. The other slaves cheered Antonio as he steadily and methodically beat the blubbering, cowering Garth to a gory, sodden mass. When there was no longer any life in the quivering hulk that was once Michael Garth, Antonio took thought for his safety. The galley ' s crew were closing in on him as hunters close in on some animal at bay, for that was what Antonio had become—a frenzied animal at bay. He lashed out with his chain, cutting down the oncoming men like saplings, all the time fighting his way to the edge of the ship and freedom. Finally he dived into the cool green water still dragging his chain. Down, down, down he plummeted to the bottom where for a brief instant he rested, only to be compelled to battle his way upward again to obtain fresh air. The chain was no longer a help to him but a hindrance, yet struggle as he might, he could not free his ankle of the iron clasp and one of the links. However, as he watched the other rust-coated links sink to the bottom, his mind felt as though it had been relieved of a great burden, and wearily he struck out for the distant shore. His surge of super¬ human strength still remained with him, and after what seemed to be hours of endless swimming, he reached the shore of a small island. For the first time in twenty years he was a free man. He lay down, exhausted, on the warm brown sand, pondering his next move. He would find some food, then some fresh water, but first of all he would rest. It was pleasant to be there with no harsh shouting in his ears, without the fear in his mind of a heavy whip descending on his quivering flesh. As he lay there, a gentle rain began to fall, moisten¬ ing his parched legs and cooling his feverish body, until he fell into a gentle sleep. For some inexplicable reason his thoughts centred mostly around the chain. He saw the chain binding his mangled legs to the galley; he saw again the same chain crashing into the bewildered face of Michael Garth; he saw the crew going down before the chain; again he saw the chain, sinking down into the depths of the sea after he had managed to free himsef of part of it. Then, mysteriously, the chain slowly dissolved into nothing and once again he saw the sunny skies of Italy, his luxurious home, his loving parents, his friends. All were waiting and beckoning to him. His tortured soul, able to bear no more, left his body for a land where pain is unknown—where happiness and peace predominate. —Myrna Wright, 13A.

It was a dark, rainy night, but not even the gloom could dampen my spirits. My book had been accepted by the publisher. I was now a full-fledged mystery writer. Absentmindedly, with thoughts of golden royalties, I turned down Blue Street, when suddenly 1 heard a scream. I stopped short. There it was again! I could not be mistaken. It seemed to come from a large black house which stood back from the street several yards. The shades were drawn; it looked very suspicious. Silently I debated within myself whether to call an officer or investigate the matter myself; but curiosity getting the better of me, I bravely mounted the stairs and knocked boldly on the door. No answer. Then as I prepared to retrace my steps, the door opened abruptly. I turned—and almost fainted. Before me stood a character borrowed from the most harrowing mystery story ever written. His dress pro¬ claimed him a butler, but a more unsavoury indivi¬ dual I have never seen. A huge, livid scar rent his dark, sallow face, and his mouth was twisted into a hideous snarl. Blindly I turned and ran. About a block later, reason finally overtook me. What was I running for? There was nothing to be frightened of. Yet I could not explain away the sense of evil that had assailed me as I had looked at that man. He had seemed to contaminate the very air. Then I thought—the scream! The thought of some poor mortal in the clutches of that villain made my blood run cold. There was no time to call the police. I would have to go back; only this time I would use some common sense. The house looked just the same as before. I crept stealthily around to the back, and there, as in the best mystery novels, was a small, unlocked window. With difficulty I crawled through and found myself in a tiny, dimly-lit room, containing assorted photo¬ graphic equipment. Suddenly I heard voices. They were moving to¬ wards the room. Quickly I looked for a place to hide. The closetl Swiftly I slipped behind the cur¬ tain that covered its entrance. I heard the door open. A harsh guttural voice snarled, You stupid blundering fool! Why did you let her get away? She will go straight to the police, and then you know what will happen. Did you take care of that lames girl? Looking through a hole in the curtain I saw a short, swarthy man, who seemed to be the leader, deliver¬ ing this scathing tirade to none other than the butler. The leader stood silently awaiting an answer. No, Evard . . stammered my acquaintance. He got no further. A stinging slap across the face silenced his words. The one called Evard continued in a voice as cold as steel, ' You will attend to it. Now bring me the records. We must destroy them, and leave these premises immediately. The F.B.I. is much too . . Suddenly he stopped, looking towards the curtain. My heart stood still. I stepped further back into the cubicle, pushing against a wooden cabinet. Over it came on top of me, shoving me half out into the room. The curtain fell down on my head. I at¬ tempted to rise. Then my head exploded, and everything went black. The next tiling I knew a voice was saying, She ' ll be all right, just a slight blow on the head. Slowly I opened my eyes. I was in a hospital bed! Where were those men? What had happened? I soon found out; I was a heroine. Those two men had been spies, and the F.B.I. had had a watch kept on them day and night. Then I blundered in, but luckily, I did no harm. In fact, if it had not been for me, Miss James, who was an F.B.I. undercover agent, would have been killed. I had an idea. My adventure would make a good mystery story. Speedily I typed it out and sent it to the publisher, expecting a cheque by return mail. Back came my answer. We regret to have to return your manuscript. Unfortunately we find it lacks the realism of your first work. Please honour us with any other story you may write. Very brief and very polite, yet how it deflated my over-sized ego. —Marilyn Snyder, 12B. Mine Is Forever (Honourable Mention) I love a lass, she loves me not.

The worn, gray suit hung neatly on his short, stocky form, but the usually squared shoulders slumped, and his usually affable countenance was creased in a frown. He was lost in deep and serious contem¬ plation—contemplation, which had been gripping him for the past week and which was surely and slowly robbing him of his will and power. He must save the store! It was the only thing that kept him going now that Emma was gone. At the thought of his sweet, patient wife, the bleak desperation of Mike ' s eyes changed to a fond, wist¬ ful reminiscent smile. However, he thrust himself back into the midst of his troubles and a feeling of suffocating hopelessness seized him. Then his eye caught the penetrating gleam of the ruby necklace. Its fiery brilliance seemed to burn into the black velvet of its case and Mike marvelled at its colour, its beauty, its worth. His eyes narrowed at the thought. Would he dare take the gem? He could pay off the mortgage on the store. But he would be stealing. He would go to jail. He would lose everything. A maelstrom of thoughts whirled through his brain; then an agonized groan escaped him. I must do it! It ' s the only way! The sudden sound of his own voice brought him back to reality with a jerk. He glanced furtively around him to see if anyone might have heard his exclamation, then cursed himself for acting like a common thief—Well, wasn ' t he? That night Mike stayed up late. He sat at the small, round table, his head in his hands, thinking and planning, thinking and planning. His thick, gray hair was rumpled and the harsh light from the lamp mercilessly sketched the deep wrinkles on his face, the dark shadows under his eyes, and the thin strained line of his mouth. There was one thing he did know. The jewellery store had a small window at the back. He’d often seen it when he cut through the alley on his way home. But would it open? Another thought flashed through his mind. Surely the store would have a burglar-alarm, even though it was a small-town store which had never been threatened with robbery. He could only hope and pray that he would not stumble across it, for if he did, there would be no escape. Finally he went to bed, but he found little sleep that night. The next morning Mrs. Brown met a friend in front of the jewellery store. She confided, Did you know that Mr. Velda just passed me on the street, and he didn’t even say hello? Oh well, I suppose he has his troubles. My, isn ' t this a beautiful ruby necklace in the window? That night Mike worked in his grocery store later than usual. It was dark when he cut through the alley on his way home. He approached the window cautiously, and after glancing from left to right, stealthily explored the frame with gloved hands. Here was a latch at the bottom. His desperate lingers clawed at it, its rough, rusted surface burning be¬ neath his hands. He froze. Footsteps were sounding around the comer, coming nearer, and nearer. He shrank against the wall, into the shadows; beads of perspiration stood out on his brow. For one moment his heart stood still; then Officer Kipple passed on down the street. Mike ' s shaky legs hardly carried him back to the window, where he pulled a small chisel from his pocket and clumsily inserted it under the base of the window. Slowly, straining, he pushed downwards. The window groaned and his heart leaped as it moved up. Then he was inside the room, barely breathing, the fear of an alarm engulfing him. Cautiously he felt his way to the front of the store. Yes, here was the necklace. He closed the box and gripping it with one hand, made his way, half-blindly, out of the room, through the window and out the alley. Scarcely realizing how he was able to make it, he arrived home. He laid down the box without opening it, as the realization struck him that he had actually stolen the necklace. When sleep at last came, he tossed fitfully, dream¬ ing that the necklace was around his neck, choking out his life. Gray dawn was streaming through the windows when he awoke and disentangled the covers from around his head. Lagging steps took him into the front room where he spied a letter under the door. Listlessly he tore open the envelope, then stopped, for he saw only the line Dear Mr. Velda: The bank has reconsidered your request for a loan. He sank into the chair, incredulity, joy, then horror, mirrored in his eyes. He grasped the jewellery box in trembling hands, tore open the cover, and gasped. There was no necklace. He had stolen an empty box. —Mary Jane Makar, 13A. Page Twenty-Four “ TH E SPARTAL OGUE — 1952 A Ghost I Should Like to Meet (Honourable Mention) I have often thought that I should enjoy entertaining a ghost. A ghost? you ask, Why in the world a ghost? Well, to tell the truth, I think a ghost would be one of the most genial sorts of guests, if not the most interesting. One of the ghosts which I would like to encounter is Aunt Mabel (gone these ten years, poor soul). After passing through my bedroom wall, the old dear would seat herself on my bed and say, How about a cup of tea? It ' s going on four. Then, she would examine the book that I was reading and exclaim, Hmphl One of these murder mysteries, eh? Now I ' m sure one of those nice Elsie books would be much more educational. Aunt Mabel is on my list of Choice Ghosts to Meet for several reasons. She would keep me well-in¬ formed on such matters as the activities of the Heavenly Harp Society, the Promotion and Demotion of all Heavenly Persons, and the casualty list of all new angels who happened to have broken a wing after a fall from a cloud, or suffered a black eye caused by a very unruly and tremendously mischiev- ious halo. Another ghost I would like to meet is Uncle Henry. He was not my real uncle but he married Aunt Mabel, thus bestowing upon himself that dreaded title. I often wonder whether Uncle Henry ever gain¬ ed his freedom. I wonder, is Uncle Henry blithely chucking pretty angels under the chin or is he duti¬ fully playing his harp under Aunt Mabel ' s careful and beady-eyed supervision? 1 would like to see Uncle Henry just to make certain that he was happy and that his back did not pain him any longer (Aunt Mabel was always a bit careless about those plas¬ ters). Uncle Henry would be no source of informa¬ tion for me. He was never one to talk much, especi¬ ally with Aunt Mabel around to furnish details. Of course, neither of these people were important to you, nor did they interest many others. However, to my family and to me Aunt Mabel and Uncle Henry were very important. They furnished family gossip, their children all had wonderful cases of measles, mumps, and chicken pox, and last but not least. Uncle Henry was the owner of the first motor car in town. Truly, Aunt Mabel and Uncle Henry lived very exciting lives in this world and I should very much like to hear of their adventures in the next. Public Speaking Public speaking drew quite a number of enthus¬ iastic and eloquent candidates from both the senior and junior forms this year. Miss Graham, who handled all the details of the contests. Miss Harris and Mrs. Haeberlin, who spent hours coaching the speakers, are directly responsible for such a fine showing by all the students. Ross Archibald of 1 IB won the senior boys ' contest with a highly entertaining and intriguing speech on Flying Saucers . His impromptu dealt with sev¬ eral interesting aspects of Air Travel . John Lindsay of 13A, who delivered a timely speech on Canadian Industries , tied for second place with Walter Parashak of 12A, who spoke very well on Why 1 Am Proud to be a Canadian . Third was George Mahler who spoke on the United Nations as a force against Communism. In the senior girls ' division, the winner, Marilyn Snyder of 12B. delivered an excellent address, India To-day , and topped it off with an equally well-done impromptu, The Importance of Education . Runner-up, Nancy Her of 11 A, gave an interesting speech entitled Plastics . Competition was exceptionally keen in the junior boys ' contest. Douglas Paton of 10A netted first place with his speech, The Atomic Bomb . In his im¬ promptu, he gave a pleasant account of a trip through the Laurentian Mountains. Second-place winner was Stuart Klein of 9A who gave an inspiring oration on Why I Am Proud to be a Canadian , while Richard Randall took third place. The winner of the junior gi rls’ contest was Diane Yates who opened our eyes to some interesting facts about the discovery of radium in her speech dealing with Mme. Curie ' s contributions to science. Her im¬ promptu outlined the difficulties she experienced in learning to swim. Special congratulations go to Diane who placed second in the W.S.S.A. contest. Phyllis Smith took second place in the school con¬ test with an informative and inspiring speech on Helen Keller. In her impromptu, she told of her am¬ bition to be a teacher. Third place went to Anne Johnston who spoke on the dangers of narcotics. Her impromptu dealt with the peculiar Ontario winters. Other contestants deserving credit for fine speeches were Judy Kidd, Janisse Staples, Margaret Carson, Stuart Mills, Garry Tucker, and Carl Bjerkelund. Congratulations! We thank also Mark Johnston, Bob Wade, and Don Bradley under whose capable chairmanship the contests were conducted as well as the time¬ keepers, Don Erskine and Garry Newman and the messenger, Mary Sibley. —Judy Steadman, 1 IB. ••THE SPARTALOGUE 1952 Page Twenty-Five 1 t t First Row: Second Row: Back Row: Marilyn Snyder.

In selecting these books we have kept you, our fellow students, in mind; we have tried to find books that will keep you entertained, interested and informed. PRINCESS ELIZABETH By Demot Marrah To many of us the fact that the queen had a child¬ hood very similar to our own may come as a sur¬ prise. Both the author and the photographer have skilfully caught the Little Princess in many informal moments. This beautifully illustrated book gives an excellent account of our queen during the time when she was still a princess. It contains over one hundred and seventy photographs, many of which are from Elizabeth ' s private album. THE SIGN OF THE ANCHOR —By Evelyn C. Nevin This book gives an excellent picture of the days in which Christians were persecuted. It is the story of a young Corinthian boy, Lykon, whose father is arrested by Roman soldiers because he is a member of the Christian organization. When his father is taken, Lykon is presented with a square piece of wood on which is burned the figure of an anchor. All this means nothing to the boy until he reaches Rome where the true meaning of the token is re¬ vealed to him. Lykon ' s story of the mysterious yet powerful anchor will challenge the imagination and hold the interest of every reader. THE WOODEN HORSE— By Eric Williams In 1943, twc British officers made the most daring and ingenious escape of the whole war. The two men built a wooden horse and together with another companion they escaped from a German prison camp —the notorious Stalag Luft III, designed to hold the Germans ' most prized prisoners, the aircrew, and considered to be escape-proof. Their escape from the camp itself is only a part of the story. Once outside the wire, they were still faced with the problem of getting out of Germany. They had many adventures; time after time, disaster threatened to overwhelm them, thus making the reader often catch and hold his breath. KON-TIKI— By Thor Heyerdahl This is the story of a daring voyage across the Pacific on a raft by the author and five companions.

Little mites were still trailing in and out our door when I left for the hard times party at S.C.I. What with the sing-song, games in the gym, swim¬ ming, and square dancing, there was enough to keep even the most energetic busy. Mary Jo Hopkins, Barbara Bennet, and Ruth Richards led the sing-song in which several groups of students took turns sing¬ ing. Donna Cunningham, Anne Haeberlin, Caro Armstrong, George Sutton and Ian Hamilton looked after the decorations and supervised the swimming. Mary Jo Hopkins and Jackie Welch were in charge of the gym. Mr. Peter Mitchell called the square dances. The evening was a definite success and just a sample of things to come. —Nancy. November 22, 1951 Dear Diary: I can ' t wait to tell you about our 16th annual Football Dance I went to last night. I was lucky enough to be invited and my formal was super. At noon there was a tea dance which everyone enjoyed. The setting for the dance was very colourful. Red and white streamers were draped from five points of a large silver star to the balcony, and from the middle of the star hung a brilliant crystal ball. The stage was set with a giant goal-post and tacked on this were tiny footballs naming each of our wonder¬ ful players. Three members of the staff lent their patronage —Mr. and Mrs. R. B. Whetstone, the latter smart in a gown of aqua sheer; Mr. and Mrs. R. J. Krol, Mrs. Krol lovely in black taffeta and gold satin, and Miss Helen Lovegrove, attractive in pink satin and net, escorted by Mr. Larry Wagner. The members of the committee were Jack Boyer, escorting Joan Hodges, who wore aqua taffeta and black net; Jim Grier with Eileen Higgins, petite in yellow taffeta and lace; Betty Bruce wearing blue taffeta and net, escorted by Jim Carr; Jo-Anne Sned¬ don, Gail Morris and Alex Harris. Other students seen dancing to Bill Richardson ' s orchestra were Jack Thompson and Eileen King, Don Smith and Joyce Rudling, George Sutton and Sally Bourdginon, Fred MacLennan and Mary Jo Hopkins, Bob Dagenais and Carolyn Minielly, Jim Oliver and Marilyn Hughes, Cyril Todd and Ethel Mercer, Art Renaud and Joan Masters. Ted Skoczen and Donna Cunningham, and Eddie Thompson and Shirley Borschuck. I hope I get a chance to go again next year as I had a wonderful time. —Nancy. January 25, 1952 Dear Diary: I ' m late in wishing you a happy New Year, but better late than never. The Christmas holidays were wonderful—two weeks without thought of homework! My world seemed like the rosiest thing in existence. But they say that into every life a little rain must fall, and it fell by the buckets for me when the teachers decided to play host to our parents on January 24. From the sudden change in my parents ' attitude toward me, 1 can just imagine what discus¬ sions went on about my marks, deportment, etc, etc.! Other faces also seemed glum at school this morn¬ ing, and homework, I know, will be surprisingly well done for at least a week now. —Nancy. February 23, 1952 Dear Diary: Hockey and basketball have been my chief in¬ terests the past couple of months. Our hockey team has become a real competitor in the league, and the basketball teams have shown great improve¬ ment. After-the-game dances added a lot of sparkle to three Friday nights as huge crowds gathered to trip (Continued on Page 41) 1 t « I ‘‘THE SPARTALOGUE ' — 1 9 5 2 Page Twenty-Seven GIRLS’ CHOIR Back Sow: Ron Finn.

Nobles. Guards, and Coolies Bruce McLagan John Blinston Ron Finn William Kerr Donald Alexander Annelle Chappus Shirley Johnson Pat Teahan Charlotte Watkins The mythical town of Titipu came to Sandwich Collegiate on March 12. 13, and 14 with the lively singing and acting of the Sandwich Collegiate Operatic Society. Under the able direction of Miss Scanlon, the favourite Gilbert and Sullivan operetta, the Mikado ' ' , delighted full audiences with its gay nonsense. Setting the pace for the whole operetta, the gentle¬ men of Japan in their brilliant kimonos introduced themselves with enthusiastic song in the opening scene. They were in perfect harmony with the back¬ ground of a Japanese palace courtyard, and Mount Fuijeyama in the distance. The story of the operetta revolves about Ko-Ko. the Lord High Executioner who is about to marry his ward, Yum-Yum; but a wandering minstrel, Nanki- Poo declares his love for Yum-Yum. If he cannot have her, he will kill himself. Suddenly, a command comes from the Mikado. There must be an execution, or Ko-Ko will lose his position, and the city will be reduced to the rank of a village. Ko-Ko turns to Nanki-Poo. Nanki-Poo agrees to marry Yum-Yum and be beheaded in a month. Unexpectedly, the Mikado comes to Titipu, where as yet no execution has taken place. To satisfy the Mikado. Kc-Ko makes out an affidavit saying that he has beheaded Nanki- Poo. But his triumph is short-lived. He has sup¬ posedly killed the heir to the throne of Japan. To save himself from execution, Ko-Ko marries the elder¬ ly, ferocious Katisha. When Nanki-Poo returns to his father, all is straightened out and the story comes to its usual happy ending. Ron Finn as Ko-Ko made the series of Gilbert and Sullivan intrigues entirely plausible as he deftly avoided execution, but not Katisha. His rendition of the popular Tit-Willow” number clearly showed his singing and acting ability. The pompous, greedy Pooh-Bah was outstandingly characterized by Bill Kerr who, with sneers and haughty remarks, con¬ descended to be insulted by various bribes, all to the great amusement of the audience. As Katisha, Char¬ lotte Watkins was properly mean and blood-thirsty. Her solo Alone and Yet Alive won encores every night of the performance. Annelle Chappus and Jack Blinston capably played the parts of the lovers, Yum- Yum and Nanki-Poo. Anneile ' s rendition of her main solo The Moon and I clearly presented the beauty and artistry of her singing; her acting was outstanding throughout. Jack Blinston is also to be commended on his fine performance. As the most humane Mikado. Bruce McLagan changed from benign humour to ferocity as he learned of his sen ' s execution. His retinue consisted of John Sparling, Peter Mahler, and Stewart Boyd. In their artless Japanese way , the three little maids from school, Annelle, Shirley Johnson, and Pat Teahan quickly won the heart of the audience with their merry songs and dances. Donald Alex¬ ander revealed a fine voice in his characterization of a noble lord Pish-Tush. Without the tuneful and brilliant background pro¬ vided by the girls ' and boys ' choruses, the operetta could not have been complete. As the curtain rose, the boys ' chorus reflected the light-hearted setting of the operetta with their rendition of We Are the Gentlemen of Japan ; later, they sang Behold the Lord High Executioner , as they introduced the inimitable Ko-Ko. Singing the colourful Comes a Train of Little Ladies , the girls ' chorus, depicting shy, young Jap¬ anese maidens, escorted Yum-Yum and her two sis¬ ters. Pitti-Sing and Peep-Bo. They presented an effective beginning for Act II as they prepared Yum- Yum for her wedding to the accompaniment of Braid the Raven Hair . (Continued on Page 41) Drama At commencement we saw the first of three plays offered this year by Miss Weller ' s group. The Com¬ mencement endeavour, a one-act play called A Ghost of a Show , showed a group of students re¬ hearsing Shakespeare ' s Romeo and Juilet . The play was very well-received by the Commencement audience. Melvin Steinhart was student director. Near the end of the first term, the student body laughed through an original play called Bottled Beauty . In this case, the student director was Barbara Bennett. At Christmas, Grade XIIB presented their version of A Christmas Carol by Dickens. Ron Finn played Scrooge and Bob played Bob Cratchit. We con¬ gratulate X11B on giving a fine performance. Jim Madge managed the curtain, sound effects and lights for A Ghost of a Show and A Christmas Carol . Page Thirty 1952 ••THE SPARTALOGUE” — DANCE COMMITTEES Back Row: Tom Klein. Don Smith.

The Christian Fellowship group at Sandwich is one of several hundred similar groups which meet in high schools across Canada and in other countries of the world. The purpose of the Fellowship is two-fold— to help strengthen Christian students, and to present the challenge of a vital Christian fai th to others in the school. Bible study and prayer form the basis of the programme along with the occasional speaker, film, and week-end conference. I I PUBLIC SPEAKINC From Row Stuart Klein. Doug Paton. Richard Randall.

The youth of the high school to-day may some day, like their predecessors, be called upon to defend their homeland from aggres¬ sion. The cadet corps in the school helps to train boys for such an emergency. Cadet training plays an active part in the develop¬ ment of character, emphasizing manliness, courtesy, and efficiency. The training which a cadet receives in obeying a given order promptly and efficiently, is of material importance in later life. Important too is the physical and mental co-ordination developed through marching and precision work. The signal corps have played a leading role in cadet activities this year and will undoubtedly play an even greater part next year. Members of the ccrps received twelve Wireless certificates last year. Twelve members were entered in the Moyer Cup com¬ petition for wireless proficiency and ranked among the ten best teams in Ontario. The members of the corps took part throughout the year in the Western Ontario Secondary School Radio Relay League, talk¬ ing with the members of the signal corps cf Windsor Secondary Schools. The addition of a new rifle range under the guiding hand of Mr. Ellis seems to have sharpened the en¬ thusiasm and the eyes of Sandwich snipers. One hundred and forty-eight cadets have fired the annual test, 56 of them qualifying for the crossed rifles and crown, the sniper ' s badge. Don Williams and Richard Jacobson have outscored the 48 other cadets in re¬ creational shooting. The school has also entered Dominion o f Canada Rifle Association competition. The best averages to date have been made by Marvin Douglas, Ken Bottoms, Eddie Hopps and Terry Henry. Every Monday afternoon, beginning at three-thirty, at least forty cadets have turned out for officers ' corps. This group forms the nuc ' .eur of the cadet corps. Upon their skill and leadership depends the group of nearly two hundred cadets. An outstanding contribution to the cadet corps is made by Mr. Welsh and his band. Faithful practice every Wednesday night always results in a nearly- perfect and always colourful performance by the band. The inspecting officer, Captain D. C. Irwin, in com¬ menting on the 1951 inspection, complimented the corps on its efficiency and good management. Under the very capable leadership of Cadet Colonel Lome Hunter, with Cadet Major Warren Dawson as his second-in-command, and Cadet Major Bill Corbett and Jerry Patterson in command of A and B companies respectively, the corps presented a smart performance. The band, led by Drum Major Alan Shepherd, put on a very colourful display as usual, while signal operations, under the direction of Cadet Lieutenant Don Bradley, were well executed. “THE SPARTALOGUE — 1952 Pane Thirty Three Track and Field Meet—1951 The inter-form meet held on May 1st produced a hatful of records, seven by the boys and three by the girls, as well as some strong contenders for W.S.S.A. and W.O.S.S.A. honours. Jerry Weingarden, the junior champion, led the parade by breaking three records. He set new marks of 4 ' 11 Vs in the high jump, 34 ' Vs in the hop, skip and jump, and 17 ' 2 in the running broad jump. Dick Howitt, the runner-up in the junior division, set a new mark of 37.4 in the shot-put. In the intermediate division, Ken Bottoms was the champion, breaking one record and tying two. Ken tied the high jump and shot-put records and established a new mark of 110 ' 6 in the discus. In the senior division, Lome Hunter, the senior champion, broke his own pole vault record with a jump of 10 ' 6 and Gord Scratch set a mark of 18.2 seconds for the 120 yard high hurdles. Anne Haeberlin and Deanne Whiteside tied the junior high jump record of 4 ' 4“ and Marilyn Hughes broke the junior broad tump record with a jump of 15 ' 9 . Martha Punch Elliot, the senior champion, set a broad jump record of 16 ' 6 . Ella Eberwein, who gave Martha a battle for the senior crown, set the other record of 4 ' 6 in the high jump. CHAMPIONS Girls Boys Juvenile Anne Haeberlin Ed James Junior Eva Patterson Jerry Weingarden Intermediate . Donna Cunningham Ken Bottoms Senior Martha Elliot . Lome Hunter W.S.S.A. Our girls as usual, made an excellent showing in the W.S.S.A. meet. The seniors won the Joan Mary Gatfield Memorial Trophy denoting supremacy in the senior division, while the juniors tied with Patterson for the Mayor Reaume Trophy. For the sixth consecutive year, our girls captured the Mayor David Croll Shield for total point in the I three divisions. Old Reliable , Lome Hunter, came up with a tie for the senior boys’ championship to give the boys their only bid for glory. Ken Bottoms, George Sutton, Jack Thompson, and Ed James made a good showing with each obtaining at least five points to receive the school letter. W.O.S.S.A. The week following the W.S.S.A., Mr. Whetstone took a strong senior boys ' team to London for W. O. S. S. A. Meet. Lome Hunter and Don Smith took firsts in the javelin throw and pole vault, respectively, while Ken Bottoms and Jim Oliver, both intermediates competing against seniors, got a second in the discus throw and a fourth in the hurdles. Jerry Weingarden took thirds in the high jump and broad jump. W.S.S.A. TRACK CHAMPIONS - 1951 Front Row: Mr. Whetstone, Albert Ambedian. Morley Pattison. John Sorenson. Eddie James.

Volleyball Champions Sandwich was represented by excellent teams in both Junior and Senior Volleyball competition. Our teams brought home one championship and almost won a second. The Junior team, which was very strong this year, took every game by large margins to win decisively the W.S.S.A. Junior Championship. The Seniors, not so fortunate, lost the championship to Walkerville girls by a scant three points. Excel¬ lent team work and spirit with good serving and fast returns paid dividends for both teams. The Junior team produced several promising ath¬ letes—from Grade 9, Nancy Weir, Joyce Beluk, and Carol Patterson; and from Grade 10, Deanne White- side, Penny Whittle, and Phyllis Klein. INTERFORM A total of one hundred games were played in the Senior, Grade 10, and Grade 9 interform leagues. In the senior league the competition was excep¬ tionally keen. Thirteen A, Commercial, 12A and 12B reached the play-offs. 13A and Commercial had to play three games in the finals before Commercial finally came through to take the pennant! The Grade 10 League shared equally keen com¬ petition. The regular season finished with 10D in first place. In a two-game semi-final, 10D edged out 10A by one point; it then went on to capture the pen¬ nant by defeating 10C in the finals. In the Grade 9 league, 9E went through the season undefeated to win the Grade 9 Championship with twelve wins and no defeats. The most important factor of the Interform Leagues is that ninety-eight per cent of the girls have an opportunity to play. The games are refereed by students, and the Grade 9 teams are coached by members of the Senior School team. This offers ex¬ cellent opportunity for leadership training. “THE SPARTALOGUE” — Hockey At 7 a.m. on those cold winter mornings when most of us were asleep, the boys who carried Sand¬ wich colours into the 51-52 hockey battle were faith¬ fully practising at the Arena to work themselves into condition for the coming season. And indeed, this past season has produced keener competition than in previous years. The Spartans, coached by Mr. Silcox and managed by Doug Paton had Moose Sutton, the team captain, who was the bulwark of the defence and spark-plug of the offence. George and Richard Howitt produced the most goals for the Sandwich cause. Just as important were the assists by Jim Holmes and Lome Willis, the two wings, and Jack Blinston on defence. Little A1 Ambedian in goal turned in many fine performances. The play of the second and third lines was very promising and these boys showed good prospects for the first two lines next year. The combined efforts and never-die spirit of the team accounted for 2 victories over Kennedy. Congratulations go to Frank Dietzel, who, through co-operation and faithful atendance, proved to be a most efficient timer. Our boys gave a very creditable showing this year, and with a little more experience, will certainly be contenders for hockey laurels. Golf At Lakewood last October, Sandwich competed at the Secondary School Golf Tournament. Out of seven schools Sandwich came fourth with 390 points. Don Norris was low man on our team with a score of 89. Other members of the team were George Mahler, Gerry Guenther, Walter Parashak and Morris Palawalda (left to right in picture).

Football At the finish of the regular season, Mr. Steadman ' s Spartans gained a much-deserved berth in the play¬ offs. They started the season by defeating a strong Vocational team. Although three losses followed, the team played exceedingly well in all their games. In the following game the Spartans came back to gain a play-off position by a 7-6 victory over Walk- erville. The inspired Spartan squad fought hard against Patterson in the semi-finals, but were on the short end of a 9-1 Panther win. Sparked by a top-notch line, it is no wonder that the Spartans came so close to defeating the Patterson twelve. Coached by Mr. Krol and backed by such veterans as George Sutton, Wally Tereschyn and Stan Drabek, this season ' s line outdid themselves. Other very valuable players were Ross Archibald, Qiff Molyneaux, Bob Dagenais, Don McLennan and Frank Stedman. Albert Ambedian, Ken Bottoms, Dave McCuaig. Jack Thomson and Don Smith were fast, hard-driving backfielders who consistently made gains around ends and through the line. Bob Wells and Ted Skoczen very effectively held down the end positions offensively and defensively. George Sutton and Jack Thomson are to be con¬ gratulated on gaining a berth on the coveted All- City Team . Walt Tereschyn was named on the second team, while Don Smith and Ken Bottoms re¬ ceived honourable mention. The coaches, Mr. Stead¬ man and Mr. Krol, predict an even bigger and better season next year with many veterans returning. Interform Football No less than seventy-five enthusiastic athletes com¬ peted in Mr. Brown ' s football league this year. Six teams were pitted against one another in games that were not won until the final whistle. Fred Todman ' s Lions , A1 Trothan ' s Mudhens , A1 Mills ' Hornets , Richard Dungy ' s Blackhawks , Ron Ferchucks Turtles and Brian Pye’s Royals fought hard for victory in all their games. However, A1 Mills ' Hor¬ nets ended up on top with 4 wins and a lone defeat which was suffered at the hands of Richard Dungy’s hot ' n ' cold Blackhawks . The Lions and the Blackhawks tied for second placed followed by the Mudhens , Turtles and Royals respectively. An all-star intra-mural team consisting of Richard Dungy, Gord Kirk, Alan Mills, Ron Ferchuck, Gerry Cattanack, Fred Todman, Tom Noble, Mike Kish, Chuck O ' Hara, Brian Pye, Gary Tucker and John Dewhurst ended the season by playing the Spartan Reserves . With the enthusiastic turnout that was given Mr. Brown, it appears that the senior Spartan team will be greatly improved in the near future through the fundamentals and experience gained in the intra¬ mural league.

Basketball Champions Miss Gurney ' s lassies had another very success¬ ful season this year, capturing both the W.S.S.A. and W.O.S.S.A. crowns. In the city league, they took their first game from Lowe Vocational by the score of 25-20 and followed up by another victory against Patterson 29-26. The next game was an important one, since they played Walkerville, the defending champions. The Spartans defeated them 28-27 and then went on to win ' every other game, winding up the season undefeated. In the W.S.S.A. semi-finals the Leamington girls were trounced by Sandwich 42-20 and 38-18 in a home-and-home series. Interform The Grade 9 pennant race proved to be a one¬ sided affair with 9E captained by Nancy Weir win¬ ning all their games. The coaches, Mary Jo Hopkins, Jackie Welch, Ella Eberwein, Ethel Mercer, Caro Arm¬ strong, Irene Cunningham, Anne Haeberlin, Joan Rudkin, Betty Bate and Mavis McCuaig deserve a great deal of credit for their voluntary help. Mary Jo Hopkins was toj scorer of the season with 125 points. Betty Hanson, an up-and-coming second former, was second highest scorer. Other players on the forward line were Joan Rudkin and Ella Eber¬ wein. The splendid guard line this season con¬ sisted of Jackie Welch, Ethel Mercer, Irene Cunning¬ ham and Martha Elliot. Miss Gurney and Miss Munnings deserve credit for their excellent coaching of the team. As usual, the trip to London for the W O.S.S.A. Championship provided many thrills. With the splendid support provided by all the Students who attended the games, our girls couldn ' t help but come home victorious. Basketball In the Grade 10 league, the competition was very close. 10A, 10D and 10C were all eager tc win the pennant. In the finals the squad from 10C won the championship by topping 10D by four points. After a tough battle with 13A, 13C, captained by Irene Cunningham, completed the senior schedule in first place. In the semi-finals, 11A and 11C were edged out by 13A and 13C. J Back Row: Front Row: Back Row: Middle Row Front Row: SENIOR BASKETBALL TEAM Mr. Krol. Jim Oliver. Bill Kerr. Ted Skoczen.

They finish¬ ed the season with five victories as against seven losses. Teamwork combined with a new system on the floor produced a hard-playing, fighting team. The seniors scored easy victories over Lowe Vocational and St. Joseph ' s, but were held down by the power¬ ful Patterson, Walkerville, and Assumption teams. In an upset, we took the final game from the favoured Kennedy Clippers. High scorer for the season was Ken Bottoms with over 100 points, with Dave McCuaig in the runner-up position. Richard Dungy, Don Smith, Ted Skoczen and Jim Oliver were regular players. Gordie Kirk, Eddie Thomson, Stan Drabek and Bill Kerr show promise for next year ' s team. Junior Boys A much-improved junior team displayed ability and determination. Even though they did not always succeed in winning, they put forth every effort and usually lost by only a few points. Outstanding on their schedule was a hard-fought game with Assump¬ tion which ended in a 31-30 score for our battling Juniors. Regular players were Jerry Weingarden, Bob Willoughby, George Mahler and Art Henderson, with Jerry Weingarden as top scorer. Bill Red ' Johnson, Fred Todman and Bob Hamilton should see more action next year. One of the most exciting games of the season was the one between the S.C.I. men teachers and next year ' s Senior Team. The teachers were in excellent form for the first two minutes of the game, paced by the outstanding ability of ' ' Swish Whetstone. When they had the game well in hand, the teachers retired to the bench to give the second string grads a chance to play. Boys ' Interform Basketball This season ' s interform games were marked by excellent play-making, accurate shooting and an overall picture of good basketball. With two leagues providing a good deal of com¬ petition for the boys, both Juniors and Seniors saw plenty of action. Paced by their captain, Jack Boyer, 12B won over 13A in their finals game to win the senior interform championship. 13A wound up the season in second position, followed by 12A, 11 A, Junior B ' s and 1 IB respectively. George Sutton of 13A was leading point scorer with 72 points, beating out Jack Boyer of 12B and Bill Kerr of 12A. In the Junior interform league, although 9E played winning basketball all season, they lost to 10D in the final playoff game. 10B come third while 9A, 9C, 9D, 10A and 9B wound the remaining positions. Leading scorers in the Junior division were Ted Seagull, Grant Wood, A. McDonald and B. Karpuick. THE MIKADO (Concluded from Page 28) Dolores De Fields and Shirley Saul, the accom¬ panists of the operetta, contributed in a large measure to its success. There is more to the production of an operetta, however, than singing and acting. The effective handling of details such as costumes, fans, properties of all kinds, lighting, scenery and make-up assured the final success of The Mikado . Miss Grant and her Grade Nine home economics classes made the colourful chorus costumes, while Miss Philpot and her art students produced the authentic-looking fans. Miss Weller acted as stage manager and was also in charge of the properties. The difficult task of making up an unusually large cast was skilfully handled by Mrs. Haeberlin and her hard-working assistants. Thanks to the generosity of Mr. Douglas Laing of the Windsor Light Opera, we were provided with a stage set which provoked a great deal of favourable comment. The excellent lighting effects were John Lindsay ' s contribution. The Mikado was an exceedingly impressive pre¬ sentation whose success was a result of the unstinting co-operation of so many. The final task, however, was Miss Scanlan ' s who once again has proved that with the guidance of a master, a group of young¬ sters can excel beyond all expectations. DEAR DIARY (Concluded from Page 26) the light fantastic after the Riverside, Walkerville and Kennedy games. Naturally, all the girls are looking forward to their second biggest dance of the year, the Sweater Swing, since this is their chance to invite their favourite beaux. (And it ' s leap year at that.) 1 wonder who will be chosen King and Queen! Mr. Brown tells me that the committee, including Tom Klein, Mary Jane Makar, Bob Minnice, Don Smith, Gail Morris, Barbara Bennet, Caro Armstrong, and Cliff Molyneux, is already hard at work making the necessary pre¬ parations. The date is April 18; and the band, Bill Richardson ' s. —Nancy. March 30, 1952 Dear Diary: All through those horrible Easter exams the only thing to look forward to was the W.O.S.S.A. I think there were more kids from Sandwich there than all the other schools put together. Everyone arrived in London on time for the semi-final game against Woodstock. Our girls sailed away with this game to win by the score of 39-18. Since the final game wasn ' t until seven o ' clock we wandered around London all afternoon collecting souvenirs (free ones). Owen Sound was our opponent in the second game which our gals also won easily by the score of 36-17. Mary Jo was high scorer for all the girls ' games with 17 points in the first game and 15 in the second.

He had just un¬ covered the features of Macbride from their dust wrappings. It was not the features that filled him with terror, for these were conventional. His startled gaze was fixed upon the eyes. These were not in keeping with the dark colours of the rest of the por¬ trait. Indeed, they seemed to be alive ... to be suffused with an intense evil light. Donachie ' s eyes were fixed upon those of Campbell Macbride for several minutes. Then they slowly fell, viewing the dark colours of the background and the hunting garb of Macbride. Donachie noted that typebride bore a heavy bow with an arrow strung on it. Visibly disturbed, he slowly turned and re¬ traced his steps to the study table. About eleven o ' clock that evening a heavy storm broke. Torrents of rain lashed the castle and light¬ ning stabbed at its towers. Donachie who had retired earlier than usual, unable to concentrate on his studies, also found it impossible to sleep. The mem¬ ory of Macbride ' s eyes coursed through his mind and no matter how hard he tried to cast it aside it remained there. Finally in desperation he said to himself, I ' ll go back there and see that picture again. I must convince myself that there is nothing to fear in it. Hastily he lit a candle and walked toward the din¬ ing hall. Upon entering the room his gaze was drawn at once to the portrait. The eyes seemed even more alive than before. In the light of the candle they seemed to glow with a strange irridescence. As Donachie stood transfixed by the sight, the eyes seemed to become more and more alive. Perspira¬ tion dripped from his brow. Unable to move, he saw the whole portrait slowly come to life and step from the frame. The bow was slowly raised; the string drew taut. Donachie, seeing Macbride ' s eyes fixed upon him, cried out in terror. The pleas for mercy fell dead upon the air for as the cries beat upon the thousand stones of the great room, a thousand pairs of unseen hands reached out and subdued them. Angus MacTavish and a deputation of villagers found Cameron Donachie lying on the stone floor before the picture, his heart pierced by an arrow. An investigation was conducted into the death but it proved futile. No one paid much attention to the huge portrait which hung on the wall of the murder chamber. Perhaps if they had they too would have seen the strange light in the eyes and would have noticed the bow which hung unstrung from the hands of Macbride. Thus the murder was never solved, nor will it ever be. Its mystery remains forever locked in the heart of Donachie castle among the treasured mem¬ ories. THE END -By Sandy Robertson, 13A. OUR CHOICE FOR ’52 (Concluded from Page 25) an ancient balsa raft, he and his friends set out on this daring enterprise. The adventures which befell them on the high seas and the islands will be left to those who are interested in real adventure written by an excellent writer. BLACKADDER By Cross Two small boys, Tom Cathro and Harry de Rohan, seek to learn the identity of a terrible leader of a smuggling ring. However, Blackadder shows them that there is something much more serious behind that ring than they could imagine—something in¬ volving all of England and France. The boys, a constable and some English sailors share several tense adventures in France with a young girl, Gignonne, before escaping to an English ship. Black¬ adder has a secret reason for protecting Harry. Read the story and learn the secret of the crest tatooed on Harry ' s chest. —Judy Stedman, Ann Haeberlin. N. j. RIORDAN BARRISTER, SOLICITOR.

With well wishes and au revoirs she departed from our midst for Montreal, armed with a French dictionary and some friendly advice on how to handle those Frenchmen. Good luck in Montreal. Myrna! Finally dragging ourselves away from the happy routine of classes after classes of classes, we decided to have our annual party. Mr. and Mrs. Hopkins kindly sacrificed their home to our tender mercies and we sure had a swell party. Dancing and food and sguare-dancing and food were highlighted by the hilar.ous antics of one Jack Thompson. Jack seems like such a guiet serious fellow. But . . . .!! Where was Miss Munnings? Well. Friday evening had rolled into the wee hours of Saturday morn when Miss Munnings sauntered in and was greeted with Hey. the party was last night s Mention must be made about those fine zoology classes up in Mr. Brown ' s lab. We waltzed into class one morning when our beaming teacher handed out beautiful live pigeons with the order Get to work.” Chloroform and a twist of the neck made an end of our feathered friends and fiendishly clutching scalpel and forceps, we dug in. 1 shall not go into the gory details, but may here be observed a few seconds’ silence for the poor victims who sacrificed life and limb all in the interests of science . . . Rumours have it that Mr. Brown has a bo of small, lively kittens in the lab . . . waiting. • � « This class of ' 52 could not possibly depart from these halls of learning without leaving something to posterity. Therefore: Mary Jo Hopkins begueaths her top 10 inches to Jill Armstrong. Sandy Robertson begueaths his Scottish accent to Patrick O ' Flannigan. John Lindsay begueaths his old chemistry kit to Don Bradley. Ken Bottoms begueaths one shoe size 13 to Annie Avadesian. Mark Johnston begueaths 4 science-fiction magazines to Pete Stewart. Page Forty-Six THE SPARTALOGUE 1952 Class News George Sutton wandered sleepily into a hotel- I ' ll have a room and bath, please. The indignant manager replied. Well. I ' ll give you your room, but you ' ll have to take your own bath, sir. • Mr. Courtney walked into the classroom and promptly ordered All morons, please stand up.” When no one stood up. Bob Dagenais iinally rose. Mr. Courtney replied. Well Bob. I ' m glad to see that you admit it. Said Bob. It wasn ' t that. sir. I just didn ' t like to see you standing up alone. Tom (tongue-tiedl Klein conlidently translated in Latin class: And Caesar ordered all the men to come to the meeting, fully- dressed. Miss Weller suppressed a smile and corrected: No Tom. not fully-dressed, but fully-armed. • Mrs. Boyd was practically speechless when her French class confronted her with an old university paper which carried a picture and article on one Miss Isobel Duncan, star tennis player. Said Mrs. Boyd with much blushing. ”Ie crois que oui. • Mr. Brown: Describe the brain of a pigeon. Pat. Pat Rigg: Strictly for the birds, sir. ELEVEN—THIRTEEN C Why do you like to go to Assumption. Eda? Why does Rosemary always go to the Capitol? Jerry? Barbara, why are you so nice to Ted in 9C? Marilyn Stafford ' s saying is Shut up. you guys. Joyce Crew leaves at 12:40 every noon. Wonder why? Shirley said. Guess what, he asked me to go steady. Eileen ' s marks in typing increased when Jim was absent. Pearl has to stay home to catch up on her sleep. Why do Gail and Sheila fight when Keith ' s name is mentioned? Helen lockie’s saying is Drop dead. Higgle. Kathleen’s favourite saying Is he cute?” Conversation between Sheila and Mary: Gee. Sheila, you should sing on a stage. Yah. should I? Yah. the first stage out of town.” • • This all adds up to say 1IC is the best, especially in Short-Hand? • • • This year the Special Girls went all out in sports. We began the year riqht by defeating 13A to win the Volleyball Championship. As the year progressed, our basketball players showed their skill. Once again we defeated 13A. this time to win the Basketball Pennant. Better luck next year. 13A! • It was sure a shock to Tom Noble the day Ella took her blouse off by accident, or did she? � � � We held a big party in Mr. Courtney ' s room at Christmas time. There was food floating around the room and everyone had lots of fun. • • • 13C is very proud of their members on the S.C.I. WOSSA team. They are Betty Bate. Irene Cunningham.

Arthur Arbour called for the sguare dancing and called so loud that the house shook. Margaret Carson was playing ten pins for the first time. She wound up; the ball went back. What went down the alley, Marg? TEN B In basketball our boys finished second losing out by one point in the finals. Bill Johnstone. Bob Hamilton. Leon Paroian, Paul Ariss and Gary Parker were the first line and never went down without a fight. e LIST or MERITS 10B placed Bob Ord, Bill Powers. Clarence Beaulieu. Lome Willis and Bill Gardiner on the school hockey team. Martha Elliott and Dsanne Whiteside played with the Girls’ Basketball Team. Art Henderson played some good games of basketball on the first line ol the funior Boys’ Team, along with Bill Johnston and Bob Hamilton. We won a prise for selling the most tickets to the Mikado (92.50) Paul Ariss played on the football team along with Lome Willis who was a star on the defence. We wish to congratulate Zenon Zubricki. a new pupil from the Ukraine, on the fine job he has done in accomplishing the speaking of English and lor doing so well in every other subjecl. He has not only brains but also a swell personality. ... CAN YOU IMAGINE? Richard Randall being tall Jack Ohler being small Bob Ord without a girl. Clarence Beaulieu without his curl Bill Johnson without red hair Jack Beadle with a care Bill Gardiner being awake. Deanne Whiteside baking a cake Shirley Snyder without her tongue Fred Smith not playing a drum Martha Elliot being on time Bob Makar spending a dime. Bill Powers. • e Bus Driver—Fare, please. Dave Wilson—faire, faisant, fait, je fais. e Mr. Robinson And why are you late this morning? Nina Mudry—Two boys were following me and they were walking terribly slow.

Bill Johnson and Leon Paroian. • Although Art is last on his feet in basketball he never seems to get to school two minutes bslore the bell rings. « � 4 A VISIT TO THE HISTORY CLASS Suppose you take a trip with me Up to Mr. Steadman ' s room to visit with 10B. The lirst thing that we notice as we enter in the door Is that Lome ' s throwing paper and it’s landing on the floor. In just what shape is Canada today? the teacher then inquires: But Leon gets his current events from previous month’s Esquires. And now it ' s handsome Robert who the answer thinks he knows. But you can’t get inlormat on from a group of uhs and ohs . Elsie fights with Martha for some pencil that she took. And Richard Randall ' s reading his supplementary book. The bell rings: and the students all go tearing out the door. We know by now the History class will finish after four. There ' s a few 1 didn ' t mention but I ' m running out of rhyme. Don’t think you got off easy for I ' ll come to you next time. TEN C QUITE A CHANGE! It is five years hence and we are walking down Ouellette Ave. We take a peek into the seventy-three story C. H. Smith store where we see Nancy Aiken. Joan Chappus. and Jean Grant working hard in the top department. The manager is none other than Dick Waldron, the business man himself. A little further down the street on the Palcce Theatre marquee, we see that the famous movie star. Shirley Kinney, is starred in the inspiring movie To Have and to Hold. written, produced and directed by Moya Reid. As we cross the street, we shake hands with Wind¬ sor ' s first woman mayor. Betty Jean Clark. We pick up a news paper from the newsboy Norman Lamoureux and find out from the front page that Dollie Nolin and Anne Cassan have made their first successful trip to Mars. On the second page we see that Carol Brown, Cecile Legault and Cynthia McCabbe are bash¬ ful brides. We see that the comic strip Smoky Stoker has been drawn and written by Betty Turner. Janel Beiber and Donna Lajoie. On the society page we find that Elsie Way. Beverly Chadwick and Beverly Battersby have become prominent debu¬ tantes in New York. We now climb aboard a bus driven by Dollie Meloche and are in the vicinity of S.C.I. As we walk down these familiar halls we look into the Math class where we see Helen Wood. Anna Singer, and Odessa Carpenter still sweating out their Math. In Mr. Silcox ' s room we see that he is still trying to pound Record-Keeping into the heads of Annie Avadesian. the two Barbaras. Kelt and Barker, and the two Pats, Reynod and Marsden and Gloria Hagarty. As we walk out of school and past Marlene Cosgrove’s mansion we see Gladys Van Lith and Marilyn Howkin talking to each other over a couple of baby buggies. We thought we needed a little refresh¬ ment so we dropped in on Rose Losoncsy and one of her gay parties where Mary Ellen Shearon was serving the COKE. What about us, you ask? Why. don ' t you remember? You bought some peanuts from us only half an hour ago! —Pat Smith. Betty Hanson.

NINE A This year as Sandwich presented its annual operetta. 9A came out on top of all the qrade nines, selling S63.00 worth of tickets. Our top seller was Stan Magrath. Eight students from our class took part in this presentation. Fran Humphrey Does a person get a detention for something they didn ' t do? Teacher No. Fran That ' s good. I didn ' t do my homework. • WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF Jean Sorrell started to do some school work? John Sparling used words the rest of the class could under¬ stand? Mary Sibley stayed in the room for fifteen minutes before school? Sandra McLahey stopped growing? Albert McDonald stopped fighting with Marjorie Wright? Stuart Klein didn ' t stand first? I wonder why Miss Graham has nothing to say About the good class in the school which of course is 9A! The teachers ask us to please pay attention. They just give up and give us detentions. The kids in 9A are good as a rule. What ' s it like they ask. to be kicked out of school? Of course. Sandra McLahey is never found talking. And Stuart Klein’s low marks are really quite shocking, And Fran Humphrey, in her seat you ' ll never find there. She ' s always sitting close to a boy with red hair. At the back of the ronm. sits Bert McDonald with poise From back there, of course, you ' ll never hear noise. Barbara Dawson, who ' s always sitting up straight. Never looks at a boy till she’s outside the gate. Yes. 9A ' s as good as good can be. And Fm sure if you knew us. with us you ' d agree. NINE B Here are some tales that 9B hails That you will like in every way. My first is the tale of Keith Shorter. Who is our hero and a good sporter.

Why Bob Davis is always in Mrs. Haeberlin ' s room. (Carol?) Why Marion Turner slapped Bill Howitt ' s face. There cer¬ tainly are queer ways of showing affection.

And why did she have to eat it in front of 9D. (SOB) Why Bill Thilbeault quit shcool? (Maybe Emily Brown chased him too much.) What would happen if Arelen McKee would keep quiet for five minutes? What would happen if Marion Turner and Betty Hackney qot to school before the first bell? Mrs. Boyd to Doug Long: What do you call a person who keeps on talking when no one else is listening?

Good luck for the coming year! Our girls are to be congratulated on winning both the volleyball and basketball interform pennants. Our swimmers also are top notch. Gail, Carol, Phyllis. June, Nancy and Lou are our stars. Our boys also were hard workers. They finished first in interform competition and only lost to 10CD by 1 point in the playoffs. Todd Richardson. Duda, Karpuick, and Roberts put us on top by their line efforts In playing, co-operation and sports¬ manship. To add to our collection, we have been the holders of the Library Pennant for two consecutive terms. e • Imagine our June in a solemn way. And Nancy away most every day. Verna Coatsworth without a wild notion. Or Margaret without her hand in motion. Think of Miss Ha rris with fiery red hair, And Shirley Musson riding a mare. Imagine Phyllis not looking sweet. And Alex Roberts with little feet; Or picture Irene, tall and lanky. Pal Dufour. mean and cranky. Remember our Carol with many a curl, And dear little Gail, our pin-up girl. And from this confusion of words you will see That the class that is tops is certainly 9E. e • When 9E presented Miss Harris with a Christmas present. Ken Kernaghan. in his excitement, blew his bubble gum into a huge bubble which promptly broke all over his lace. Miss Harris laughed so hard that she didn ' t notice a bottle of ink near by and accidentally stuck her finger in it. WONDER WHY??? Margie and Verna are always down by the Grade eleven lockers? George Mahler is always dialing 4-90?? (Carol P. knows). June is never facing the board? (Could it be the boy that sits behind her?) Carol Anderson is always wandering around Wyandotte on Sundays? Pat Dufour is always down by 9A? Ken is always stating to his right?
