The School Board, for instance, realizing the value of journalism in school life, helped make the year-book possible by buy¬ ing a full page ad. The unstinted co-operation of staff and pupils was also a factor in the success of this publication. To Tom Noble and Art Majer, who are responsible for the many fine photographs which grace the Spartalogue and illustrate so effectively the varied phases of school activities, we should like to extend our thanks. Typists Marlene Cosgrave, Beverley Battersby and Betty Jean Clark are also to be commended for their invaluable services. We extend our thanks also to other I I and I2C typists. To the entire Spartalogue staff—notably Darlene Daugherty, Julie Toth, Ellen Fera, and Zenon Zubrycky whose faithful services deserve recognition, as well as to teachers and students whose helpful contributions have resulted in a most successful project, we extend our grateful thanks. ANNE JOHNSTON, Editor. DAVID RUDKIN, Assistant Editor. l Page Five THE SPARTALOGU E” — 195 4_ O UR collegiate days are rapidly coming to an end. but the memories of those last. five, wonderful years will remain with us always. We realize that we have come to the end of the line. On the next siding are many tracks, each one stretching far out into the future and each one offering us many excellent opportunities. Back in the guidance office we found the track number and the profession we wish to travel and we are quite confident that the knowledge we have gleaned from the best staff in Windsor, will suf¬ ficiently pay our passage to success. Although we are looking forward to that graduating day. we are very hesitant about leaving the school whose halls hold within tjjygm a wealth of memories. How well we can remember those big “fifth formers” lifting us upside down, looking for the quarter that would admit us to the best football game in the city! How the audience roared and applauded as the final Curtain was drawn to our first operetta. It was that same roar and applause mixed with a little grease paint that called us back the next year and the year after that to even bigger success! Remember the bruises and scrapes we so proudly acquired over at Prince Road Park? Remember how disgruntled our parents became when we dragged ourselves in after a particularly gruelling basketball practice? But those aches and pains and bruises and even Mom ' s scoldings were forgotten as we packed the gym Friday night and literally “raised the roof” with our cheers. Way back in “ ' 52 ' ' we found out what school spirit really is. That was the year of the reunion when all the Sandwich Collegiate “grads” paraded over to our school to pay honour to our principal. Mr. Forster. The back yard was full of cars, and we could not imagine how many stalwart .Spartans were inside. We wondered then what made these graduates so energetic — so ambitious. We think we have found the answer. It takes five years with many long hours of study and homework, to acquire that magic roll of parchment, our diploma, our key to the future and the halls of Forster have provided the golden key.

United Nations D URING the past months, there has been some controversy as to whether the United Nations sessions should be held openly or in private. As a recent observer at U.N. proceedings, I should like to present my views on this controversy. To me the United Nations seemed a “Glass House a stage on which the delegates were actors, vying for the acclaim of a world-wide audience. In every meeting, most of the delegates read their carefully planned, well-directed speeches. Each man knew that his speech would be re¬ ported to his own country and to others by newspapers and radios, and he was trying to make the most of this opportunity. For if he should concede even one small point to his opponent, his countrymen at home would certainly be displeased. It is very hard, you know, to admit publicly and openly even a partial defeat, and to compromise with the other fellow. Every member is sent instructions by his home govern ment as to what he should say in his speech, and he must follow these instructions to the letter. Every government looks upon this as a chance to build up its own policies and to tear those of the opposition into tiny pieces. Need¬ less to say. most countries take full advantage of the opportunity offered, especially Russia who continually uses the United Nations as a mouthpiece through which she can spread propaganda. It seems to me that world problems could be solved more quickly if the United Nations ' meetings were held for the most part in private or even in secret. I feel that the nations would be much more ready to listen to one another and to compromise if they were not always con¬ scious of their audience. Only recently Mr. Pearson, himself, suggested that such secret meetings would accom¬ plish more than the present open debates. However, ever since the first World War when President Wilson showed his distrust of secret meetings, the United States has in¬ sisted—first in the League of Nations and now in the United Nations—that matters be discussed openly. But. I do not feel that open discussion is the solution. Speeches made by the various delegates were full of clever witti¬ cisms directed at their opponents—it is true that several of them put on a very good show. However, after hearing a few of these highly dramatic speeches accompanied by much arm-swinging and desk-pounding. I was soon re¬ minded of that old song, Anything you can do, I can do better.

Page Eighteen THE SPARTALOGUE” — 1954 f H E RACE KEN BRADLEY — 12A r pO ANYONE who loves races, I recommend a J- visit to one of the least publicized, and yet most amusing of all races—a fuzzy worm and caterpillar race. The most enjoyable part of this race is not found in watching the race itself, but in observing the faces of the owners and the expressions found thereon. Yesterday afternoon I found myself a spectator of this fascinating sport. The scene was in little Tommy Small’s living-room where he, as well as being master of ceremonies, was the proud owner of a sleek blue and yellow fuzzy worm, an im¬ portant contestant in the race. Half a dozen other boys from three and a half to five years old were also present, each warming up his own entry for the big event, marvelling at its spe ed and all claim¬ ing his own would win. When I heard, over all the excited chattering, the voice of Tommy calling the participants to the tion and excitement as he placed his tiny charge before the tape, and held on to the squirming object with starting line, silence suddenly reigned throughout; then each proud little face lit up with nervous anticipa- nervous and somewhat clumsy fingers, waiting for the whistle. The whistle blew and it was not long before I could tell which one was winning and which one was losing just by looking at the changing expres¬ sions on those children’s faces. One little fellow who had been bounding with delight a moment before suddenly creased his brow and tried very hard not to shed any tears. It was evident that his entry was not doing too well. His was, I remem¬ bered, the big green tomato caterpillar, and I looked down to see what had happened. He was doing fine. With unequalled speed and wonderful co-ordination he executed his steps. His feet fairly flew over the floor, but alas, somewhere along the line he had gotten his signals crossed and was travelling in the opposite direction. A moment later that pretty blue and yellow fuzzy worm, which had been well up in the lead, made a left turn for no apparent reason and was immediately upset and run over by an on- rushing cabbage butterfly caterpillar. This dashed the hopes of the master of ceremonies. I am quite happy to relate, however, that the insect who took over the lead and plodded slowly but surely to an easy victory was a drab little orange fuzzy worm belonging to a quiet little boy of about three and a half, probably the youngest owner in the race. As it crossed the finish line the little boy’s face broke out into a broad grin and he accepted the first prize—the satisfaction of owning a winner in his first big race. POEMS Poems are the greatest things. That man has ever made; They cry, they laugh. They talk, they sing, But never — never fade. They tiy in on the wing of night. And shout aloud of truth. They sing to us of hope and love And whisper too of might. MARY JEAN HENDERSON — 12B. THE SNOW The snow is falling through the air, Among the trees and everywhere Covering roads and creeks and lanes, And peeping in the window panes. It trims the grey fence rails in frills. Turns haystacks into fleecy hills. Gives the posts round, wollen caps. And fields white aprons for their laps. —DIANE YATES, 12B THE POET Here I sit, with thought of naught, not a bit of rhyme, not a dime.

JUDY STEADMAN — 13A O NCE upon a time in the long, long ago, in the days of knighthood and of many petty kings, the Devil sat in his fiery cavern brooding long and silently over world af¬ fairs. Rumors of jealousy, of hate, and of many angry quarrels had reached his ears. Now at last he felt the time was ripe Twas time to overthrow the world! He arose and called his slaves and bade them arm him in his suit of flaming scarlet, such as would put the mighty Firebird to shame. Blazoned on the breast, a oglden eagle glowed. In its eyes, two great rubies sparkled with the same fire and fury as did the Devil ' s own. Then three slaves brought in a coal-black charger which pranced, and shied, and leaped in such a way that none could quiet him until his master sprong upon his back. The great horse thundered down paths paved with red-hot coals, past grumbling, smoking crater holes, and at last emerged in the clean sweet air of Earth. Horse and rider passed through green and fruitful lands fragrant with flowers and filled with sweet bird songs, but soon again were plunged into a Hell on earth. Around dark rocks ominous shadows loomed. Dark moss dripped and reeked. Above it all there hung a heavy evil cloud. Suddenly from out some hidden cave, a great black horse bearing a knight of monstrous size sprang into view! Both men grasped their lances with a firmer hand. Each paused to calculate the other ' s size and strength. But as the Devil lifted his heel to spur his mighty steed, the Black Knight cried, Ho! Ho! Wait a moment, friend. Dost thou not recog¬ nize me. thy faithful fellow-worker on the earth? Some call me Hate, some Jealousy; still others speak of me as Vice or Immorality; but to thee, good friend. I am thy humble servant. Sir Malcolm, the Black. The two then laughed, and talks, and chatted as friends. Sir Malcolm offered food and drink to his guest who gratefully accepted both. When he was ready to depart, the Black One gave him as a gift his sword of tempered steel wishing him well in his conquest of the world. Riding on, the Devil noticed he had left that land of rocks and crags behind, and was now entering into a land of low flats, stagnant marshes, and grey mists. Then from the mist there rose the ruins of a city. Beside its rusted gates there stood a haggard knight all dressed in grey and mounted on a bony nag. The Devil ap¬ proached the Knight, with the cry. “Who art thou. Sir Knight, and whose crumbling city is this?” To whom the Knight replied: “I am Sir Casper, the Impoverished, and this city is mine.” “Yield thou thyself and thy city, Sir Churl, or thou diest.” The Grey Knight answered sadly. “Feign would I fight thee. Evil One. but I have neither spirit nor power in me; therefore, I yield. Pass on.” When the Devil had passed through this land of pov¬ erty. so hungry and so parched was he that his heart leapt for joy at the sight of the green meadows and clear running streams which now met his eyes. Soon there sparkled on the horizon a castle of the purest gold whose turrets twinkled in the sunlight with such brilliance that he rode on half-blinded. Here was a land of beauty! A land of plenty! Here was a prize to tempt the wealthiest of kings! But as he neared the shining palace walls, the gates opened, and a huge chestnut mare stepped forth bearing proudly on her back a haughty knight in golden armour clad. Jewels sparkled on his sword-hilt; jewels were on his shield; and on his casque red rubies, garnets, and twinkling tourmalines captured every tiny sunbeam and multiplied it a thousand times until his w ' hole head was wreathed with flashing, dancing light. The Devil, himself, awed by this outward show of strength, per¬ ceived the proud knight’s fleshy face and his gluttonous eyes, heard his laboured breath, and soon he knew there was no cause for fear. Silently he laughed within himself but to the knight he roared. Who art thou. Sir Knight, and whose city this?” To whom the trembling knight replied, “I am Sir Edward. Knight of the Golden City, the City of Wealth and it is my city.” Then cried the Devil. No longer is it thine. Sir Knight, but henceforth shall it be mine.” “No! No! I beg of thee. If thou hast pity in thee take but a part and leave a part for me. Without my gold I am lost! cried Sir Edward, loath to see his wealth so quickly stolen. But the Devil, laughing, said, “Nay. foolish Knight. All shall be mine. With one quick blow he unhorsed the ponderous fellow and slew him instantly. Then entered he a leafy forest where there bloomed wild flowers in such profusion as would delight a maiden ' s heart — purpled violet, snowy trillium. and dainty butter¬ cups! Within the lovely forest there arose a towering fortress to the sky. The Devil, angered because he could not enter, threw many fiery torches over those high walls until the mighty building blazed and crumbled before its master. Fire. Suddenly, a knight fled from the burning castle crying. “Woe! O woe is me! And the Devil spoke to him saying, “Who art thou. Sir Knight, and whose forest this?” The knight replied, I am Sir Harold, the Learned. This was my castle and this my forest; but now I have lost all, for see thou my knowledge rises with yon smoke to the very heavens and with it goes my life. Without my books and knowledge I am nothing. ' So saying, the distraught knight drew his sword and plunged it into his breast. Thus did the CONTINUED ON PAGE 38 THE SPARTALOGUE — 1954 Page Twenty ___ THE ROAD TO HAPPINESS PHYLLIS KLEIN — 13A E sat there — a conqueror, a subduer of men, a master of a perfect crime, a superior being. He had shown to people of his town that he was equal to them. He had proved to them that he was better than they, for he had committed a crime so perfect that the facts would never be found and he would forever be free. Here he sat. the victor going back to ponder his spoils. What was the tragic event that had stirred him to this exploit? What could the motive have been for so disastrous a move? What was the one thing present or missing in this man’s life to drive him to commit murder — the murder of his brother? As Jim thought happily of his success he could not help recalling the first time that he had realized he really hated his brother. He had always hated him. of course, real deep down in. since the day his baby brother was brought home from the hospital. He despised the proud look on his father ' s face when his brother took his first step. A lump caught in his throat every time his mother praised Peter for some kind of act or good work. Yes, she would call him over and ask him questions about school and sports, but he knew that “he really was not interested, that she really did not care to know. Before Peter had come, he had been the apple of his mom ' s and dad ' s eye. He could remember so clearly the day of the public school football game when he had scored the winning touchdown. “You’re my son, and some day I’m going to make you that great football player that I could never be, his father had told him, with eyes gleaming with so much pride that a slight tear could be detected trickling down his cheek. But dad wiped that tear away instantly, for he was a strong and fearless man. and would have been a great athlete had it not been for an accident that had injured his back, and prevented any participation in sports. The accident had occurred at a time when he was about to enter college on an athletic scholarship. It not only injured his back, but also took away his confidence and will to push forward. He. therefore, never did enter college, but found a quiet job at a respectable salary, married a fine girl, and settled down to an easy life. But the one hope and dream that he cherished from day to day was the coming of a son to be the great athlete and sportsman that he had never been. And Jim was fulfilling his father’s dream. But that was before Peter came — Peter, with his fine physique for football, his good eye and skilled hand for basketball and his quick foot for track. Jim had been average, a little better than average, in sports, but he did not have that skill and natural talent that Peter had. Always people were praising Peter for one thing or another, either for breaking a high jump record, or for attaining some extra¬ ordinarily high mark in school, for Peter was not only a “whiz on the athletic field, but also a wizard in the school room. Jim had been getting quite good marks at school until he started to lose interest in it and to gain interest in hating not only his brother but every single soul who had anything to do with him. Once in a while some pitying person would compliment him on some¬ thing, but that was rare and became even rarer when he answered back sarcastically, “I don ' t need your pity. Save your fair words for my brother.” The first time that his hatred for Peter was expressed outwardlv was that day that his best girl, Margie, while out with him. casually mentioned Peter’s name. Then, when they happened to stop by his house to pick up CONTINUED ON PAGE 38 SNOW PRINCESS JUDY KENYON — 11A Janie had never seen snow before. As she stood in front of the bay window one cold, dark morning she was filled with awe. Jack Frost was already busy painting leafy designs around the edges oi the window with his icy brush. What a clever little fellow he was! She let her mind drift outside with the little fairies who were falling from the sky. As they touched the ground with their magic words it was transformed into a winter wonderland. Perhaps Mother Nature had sent these little helpers to covet up the tired old earth with a quilt of snow. The bare, gaunt oaks, shaking their bony fingers at North Wind, were soon royal kings, bowing in their ermine robes to the little bushes. The housetops no longer wore the drab shingles she usually saw, but were dressed in a gown of sparkling diamonds. Smoke curled lazily from the nearby chimneys and drifted until it was lost with the snow. The sky sagged heavily with dark grey clouds, anxious to release their burden. There was no glint of the warm sunshine to melt away the pure white counterpane. Janie was filled with ecstasy as she realized that she was princess of the fairyland as long as it lasted. THE UNKOWN LAND CATHERINE COPELAND — 12B The wind was swift, the sky was bright, The sea was clear and calm. When Jack and Joe two brothers sat Beside a shady palm. With eager eyes they gaily watched Their boats lie on the sand Then suddenly they both shoved off To see some unknown land. The sky grew dark, the wind fann ' d free. The sea rolled wild and wide Until two brothers fraught with fear Their course they could not guide. So through the waves of raging white The water spirit shrieking The sailboat in the tempest plunged Though battered sides were leaking. The waters wild went o ' er the craft, As aid to them was sent; “A splintered hull tossed in the waves, Their parents did lament. ■THE SPARTALOGUE — 1 954 Dead man ' s Run ANNE HAEBERLIN — 13A Inside his unlit room, Ivan ICarpatsky, supposed Com¬ munist leader, paced the floor like a caged lion thinking about Max. Outside, storm lightning seared the night with burning streaks while thunder rolled and crashed like stone avalanches down the Carpathians. Within Ivan ' s mind a similar fierce violence had broken, shattering his reason with paroxysms of fear and panic. But soon with the easing of the storm outside, the first shock wore off. and with a drink of vodka his head cleared and he remembered Max and what had happened that evening. Downstairs in his den, Comrade Zablonski and he had been discussing Malenkov ' s latest move — loyalty pledges for all Communist party members. “Is unnecessary,” grumbled Ivan realistically. “That is where you are wrong. Comrade Karpatsky! The Kremlin now has discovered treason among us. We are all to be checked.” Treason!” exclaimed Ivan. “Yah. one Max Zweig in Austria is going to be taken in a week. Is very secret, he added confidentially. Max! The impact struck him like bullets from a firing squad. His mind reeled in sudden sickness. Had not he and Max grown up as brothers? Had they not signed their secret pact together to break the Communist Empire after both their parents had been murdered under the Red whip? And now Max, the outside link, was under suspicion! After Zablonski ' s departure, Ivan had stumbled blindly into his room and was now staring unseeingly into the pouring streets below. Of course, he must warn Max at once. But how? A letter would arrive too late. There was no legal way to cross the border, and if he did leave, what of all ' his compilations—names, papers, maps? He must take them, too. But how could he escape? Flashing through his brain were wild ideas. Ashes from countless cigarettes dropped to the floor to be ground into the rug by the incessant beat of his feet. There must be a way! People he knew, connections he had — was there one he could trust? No, they were all as loyal to the regime as he ostensibly had been. Again he stood close to the window hearing the rain thunder on the roofs with a monotonous tempo, and pour down the troughs in a tinny geyser. His gaze lifted above the trees to the river beyond, illuminated in the wet moonlight. The Danube! Scene of his boyhood larks — fishing with Max, swimming, boating! — Boating! — He had the answer! Down by the river, the view was discouraging. The darkness and rain closed in around, choking him like a hangman’s noose as he slipped trembling along the muddy path to the wharf. From the surrounding trees issued low moans as the dead branches rubbed together in the wind. Rain whipped his body as he peered grey¬ faced into the night ahead. Soon he stood at the door of a mean shack. Hesitating only a moment, he knocked. “Toti Rykemann, I am Ivan Karpatsky. I must see you. It ' s important. May I come in?” Inside the shack, stiff wood chairs and an uneven table constituted the furniture of the living room. The flicker¬ ing lamps tossed shadows into the dismal corners. Ivan turned to the man behind him. Rykeman was a square, muscular sailor with an Oriental slant to his eyes which accentuated the inscrutability that surrounded him. “I have nine hundred rubles for passage tonight. S ' impossible. Weather ' s bad, patrols watching close. Never get across.” “A thousand?” Well, now . .

This amazing story told by an American patriot who spent nine years of his life in the Communist Party and reported all of his experiences to the FBI. is the one on which the recent television series of the same name has been based. Herbert Philbrick not only tells his own dramatic adventures, but also pro¬ vides a complete and shocking revelation of Commun¬ ism in action. THE TIN FLUTE — Gabrielle Roy. Gabrielle Roy, a noted Canadian author, weaves a bitter-sweet love story about a poverty-stricken young girl. Florentine Lacasse, who craves the richness and excitement of a life not bordered by railroad tracks and rows of run-down houses. Set in our native Canada, this is a story that is all heart and full of human emotion. THIS IS RUSSIA (UNCENSORED) — Edmund Stevens. Eyewitness reports from the Soviet Union are rare and growing rarer. Mr. Stevens, fully qualified to speak on Russian affairs, writes with penetrating in¬ sight. and reveals an up-to-date, shocking, but fully documented story of Russia today.

This dauntless patriot risked his life in combat with William the Conqueror, but surrendered his love to a Norman lady. For our younger readers we have selected a varied assortment of books which we hope they will find both interesting and enjoyable: A LAND DIVIDED — John F. Hayes.

When Agnes de Mille saw the great Pavlova dance, the sight of the great ballerina fixed her ambition for life. Overcoming her parents’ disapproval of her ambition, she embarked upon a career which carried her through many years of failure and disappointment until she danced her way to international fame. Here the reader will find not only the best account of the life of a dedicated ballet dancer, but also an account touched with humour and quick movement. THE CAPTIVE PRINCESS — Maxine Shore. This story centres around Gladys who comes to find that Christianity and faith in a God of Love can bring inner security, sustain a poor slave girl, and soften the heart of a haughty Roman soldier. DIVING TO ADVENTURE — Hans Hass. Armed with a harpoon and camera. Hans Hass ex¬ plored a strange and fascinating world, recording his daring adventures in this exciting story of hunting beneath the sea.

This book of nature ' s idiosyncrasies excites the imag¬ ination of the reader and provides fascinating reading. Although many facts in this book seem unbelievable, each has been carefully authenticated. ■THE SPARTALOGUE — 1954 Lending their patronage were Mr. and Mrs. R. B. Whetstone. Mrs. Whetstone was lovely in a pale green net dress accented with black velvet. Mr. and Mrs. R. J. Krol. Mrs. Krol attractive in a gown of black and gold satin, also honoured us with their presence. The efforts of the hard-working committee were re¬ warded by the many favourable comments about the smartly decorated auditorium. The students on the com¬ mittee were Caro Armstrong, charming in a pink net taffeta dress, escorted by Dave Gatfield; Anne Johnstone who attended with Dave Marsden and looked lovely in a mauve gown; Ed Thompson escorting Sandra Chivers. lovely in blue net; Bob Ord who attended with Gail Chamberlain, smart in a pink taffeta gown trimmed with black velvet; and Diane Yates, squired by Chuck O ' Hara.

Marge Mitchell and Richard Jacobson and many others. I will write later and tell you about the happenings of the New Year. Page Twenty-Three Oct. 31 53 DEAR DEBBIE: Here it is Saturday, the day after our school Hallowe ' en Party. I had a super time at the dance which was high¬ lighted with sing-songs, and square and modern dancing. The girls did a swell job of decorating the auditorium and Caro Armstrong. Marilyn Sinclair, Anne Haeberlin and Judy Steadman helped Miss Gurney led a rollicking sing¬ song. Mr. Robinson aptly attired in a plaid shirt, Mr. Forster and Miss Munnings were also on hand for the fun. We all had a terrific time trying out the square dances called by Miss Gurney, and then flocking to the coke stand for something to drink. The remainder of the evening we danced to such famous bands as Harry James. Billy May and Tommy Dorsey — on records, of course. Your pal. CAROL. P.S.—Our formal is December 29. As it is in the holidays, I hope you will be able to attend. Dear Debbie: Dec. 30 53. Happy New Year! 1 was very disappointed to find that you couldn ' t attend our Football Prom. The cold night, topped with a few showers did not stop anyone in town from attending this popular event. To start the evening off. coketail parties were given by Sandra Bryson. Pete Masson. Gail Parker and Caro Armstrong. At the school, everyone was presented with a favour which later served as a remembrance of the wonderful time had by all. Feb. 27 54. Dear Debbie: How time flies! I ' m sorry I didn ' t write sooner but we just had a Community Centre and I thought it would be a good time to let you know about it. After the girls and boys took turns at swimming and basketball, dancing was held from nine to eleven in the auditorium. As usual. Mr. Forster was present to assist with the success of the dance. The Bunny Hop. becoming a favourite with the stu¬ dents. was enjoyed by Nancy Weir, Mary Cleminson, Gary Tucker, Elizabeth McLister, Dave Rudkin. Jill Arm¬ strong. Helen French, Lois Bowen and Stewart Mills and dozens of others. Also seen dancing were Pete Stewart, Mary Sibley, Jerry Weingarden. Joanne Smith. Walter Baranowski, Julie Toth. Don Erskine. Carol Anderson, Dean Saul, Darlene Daucherty and Don Williams. I had a wonderful time and it reminded me of the many Community Centres we ' ve had which couldn ' t have been a success without the assistance of such teachers as Miss Scarfone and Mr. Brown. Your pal. CAROL. P.S. — Mr. Brown asked me this week to be on the Sweater Swing Committee along with Jill Armstrong. Jerry Guenther. Bill Johnston. Lorraine Baranowski. Ross Archi¬ bald, Tom Yates and Elizabeth McLister. VVe’re going to have Wally Townsend ' s Orchestra this time and the dance is to take place on May 8th.

Page Twenty- Four “THE SPARTALOGUE — 1954 I O L ANT HE” The nights of March 10, 11 and 12 were important ones in the lives of Forster students. After months of preparation and excitement, the stage took on all the ethereal charm and enchanted glow and magic of fairy¬ land; for under the capable direction of Miss Scanlan, the operetta “Iolanthe . one of Gilbert and Sullivan ' s most fantastic and fanciful, came to life through the students who were no longer our classmates but stately English peers and breath-taking fairies. The cast of the operetta follows: The Lord Chancellor BILL KERR Earl of Mountararat RICHARD DUNGY Earl of Tolloller DAVID MARSDEN Private Willis (of the Grenadier Guards) BOB ORD Strephon .an Arcad.an Shepherd Queen of the Fairies SANDRA MANDZUK Celia (Wed. and Fri.) (Thurs) Fleta Leila . Phyllis (an Arcadian Shepherdess and Ward in Chancery) MARY SIBLEY Chorus of Dukes, Marquisses. Earls, Viscounts, Barons and Fairies. PAT DOBSON CAROL LEVIS ELIZABETH McLISTER JUDY KIDD as the queen of all the faries. Bob Ord provoked many chuckles as Private Willis. Dick Dungy and David Mars- den together with Carol Levis, Pat Dobson and Judy Kidd rounded out the well-chosen and very talented cast of soloists. Enhancing the beautiful voices of the chorus and soloists was the piano accompaniment. The sympathetic and forceful playing of Miss Strong and Dawn Campbell is deserving of great praise. Without all the glitter of the costumes, the operetta, of course, would have lacked much of its lustre. Miss Grant, and the students who helped her. performed the seemingly impossible task of changing bolts of cheesecloth into gossamer gowns for forty graceful fairies. Mr. Ellis and his manual training classes were responsible for the glittering crowns and wands. Stage properties and backstage work were handled very efficiently by Miss Weller and her committee. The excellent backstage work helped make the timing the success it was. And while we speak of Miss Weller ' s work, we must mention the wings worn by all the fairies — Mr. and Mrs. Weller’s contribution to the school ' s effort. All in all. the operetta was a great success and the Spartalogue editors would like to congratulate Miss Scanlan and every other individual connected with it. DRAMA The story of the operetta revolves about Iolanthe, a favourite among the fairies, who has been sent into penal servitude by the queen for marrying a mortal, an act barred by fairy laws. However, the queen pardons Iolanthe and she confesses that she has a son, Strephon. a young shepherd, who is fairy only down to the waist. Strephon is in love with Phyllis, who is a ward of the Chancellor; he cannot marry her without the Chancellor ' s consent. They decide to marry in spite of him but are interrupted by the peers and the Lord Chancellor who themselves are in love with Phyllis. Thus Strephon is rejected as a suitor. An hour and half and several choral selections and solos later, the audience is very happy to find that all the peers and fairies as well as Phyllis, Strephon and Iolanthe are overjoyed with the happy outcome of their difficulties. The listeners ' pleasure was evident in the loud applause they accorded every member of the cast. Especially praiseworthy in his performance as the Lord Chancellor was Bill Kerr, who sang the role very con¬ vincingly. Also worthy of note were Gordon Kirk as Strephon, Mary Sibley as the lovely Phyllis, Marilyn Hughes as her very young mother, and Sandra Mandzuk Under the direction of Miss Weller and several studert directors, five one-act plays were presented during the 1953-54 school year, one at commencement and the other four during assemblies. The play “Elmer and the Love Bug provided a very- amusing opening for the commencement exercises. With Jerome DeLaurier as the centre of all the difficulties encountered by big sisters Ann Johnstone and Margaret Carson, the story was unfolded at a very fast pace. Adding their talents to thi. cast were Diane Yates, Doug Paton, John Sperling. Rosabelle Veighey, Ian Hamilton and Lois Bowen. Miss Weller would like o thank student director Phyllis Klein and all those who helped backstage for their fine efforts. Grade 12C presented two plays, “Never Trust A Man and “Counting the Calories , .while Twelve B presented Pot Luck” and 11B. “What’K We Give Dad . The plays weie well received by the students who enjoyed the occasional excursions into the field of drama.

SENIOR BOYS Ross Archibald, who won the Senior Boys’ competition is to be commended on his splendid and well planned account. The St. Lawrence Seaway ”. His equally inter¬ esting and masterly impromptu dealt with Atomic Wea¬ pons”. Ross ' s impromptu was a deciding factor in the selection of the champion.

The tickets Were upstairs and. therefore. Jim left the girl waiting in the living room. He hurried desperately, for he did not want to give the two a chance to speak and get acquainted. But once again his speed failed him. and he returned to find Margie and Peter talking and laughing. Peter, the boy that had stolen from him his father’s pride, his mother ' s admiration, his friends ' recognition, was now stealing the love of his best girl. Not only had they met and begun flirting disgustingly with one another, but also they laughed at him behind his back. Now Margie, just like everyone else, had turned against him. “She hates me, too. They all hate me. But I hate them even more, and some day I ' m going to kill that brother.” The thought startled Jim at first. But the more he thought of it the better it seemed. That would be the solution to everything. He began to piece in his mind plans for a murder — at first rather sketchy plans But with every one of Peter’s exploits the plans grew clearer and the motives more convincing. Of course, it took time — time to make it the perfect crime that would rid him of his brother, and establish him once again as a star in the eyes of the people. Every minute of the day it weighed on his mind — that hatred for Peter, that longing to be admired, that hope of one day being rid of his despised brother. Several years passed, wasted years people had thought, but important years for Jim. By locking himself in his room, taking long walks at night, and almost losing contact with the world, except for his few business associates who also hated him.” Jim reached that design for the perfect murder. He worked it out to the last minute detail, and one night while Margie was out of town visiting relatives, he visited their home to kill Peter. It worked just as planned, and after the murder was accomplished. Jim stayed for hours looking at the body of his dead brother and laughing hysterically at his own wisdom and courage. And now, here he sat — the conqueror. He was free from all that ever bothered him. He had shown to the world just how smart his brother was. and how won¬ derfully clever he was. He was the winner. He had achieved his goal, and everyone looked up to him with wide-eyed love and admiration. Suddenly a man entered, patted Jim on the back and gently said. “How ' s our fine athlete today? Jim smiled first at the padded walls that now were his home, then at the man in white who was one of hjs great admirers, and then he settled back to enjoy his fame, freedom and happiness. I lie Devil”s Visit CONTINUED FROM PAGE 19. Devil overcome the learned Sir Harold. Then rode he on shaking his head perplexed at such foolhardiness. Soon he came to a country more beautiful than he had seen thus far. In it he found a castle of white ivory. There was no banner waving from the turret top. no shield, no sign, no crest of any sort, but high above the palace gates there rose a cross of flaming gold. A knight, still but a youth, clad in snow-white armour, rode out to meet the Devil. Upon his breast there burned a golden cross and also on his shield. Before the Devil could but open his lips to speak, the youth cried out, Welcome. Stranger, to the palace of Kevin the Good! Who art thou and what dost thou desire?” The Devil haughtily replied. “Child return to thy master and say that the Devil wishes to do battle with him.” Deadman’s Run CONTINUED FROM PAGE 21 “That ' s all I have. “All right, but the risk is high; you ' ll forfeit your life.” As Ivan allowed himself to be bound and gagged he shuddered violently at the terms. If all went well lie would be deposited on Austrian soil with freedom and his papers. If a patrol boat inspected, he would be dumped overboard in a burlap sack just as though he were excess ballast — to drown silently in the engulfing waters of the Danube. Only two miles separated Communist Austria from Democratic Germany, two miles of suspense, fear, torture — two miles. Silently the “Ginka slipped from her moorings in the protecting bay out to the open river. Ivan thought of Max and prayed that he would live to reach him. The moonlight played too brightly on the little boat. How obvious was its course across the way! Burning into his arms were the ropes of death which tightened at every turn of the motor. Did he hear another boat? Ivan lis¬ tened intently to the beat for some time before he realized that it was his own heart pounding violently that he had heard. Foot by foot, length by length the “Ginka” cased across the Danube. So close was the German shore that Ivan felt he could touch it. At least he smelled free air, so it seemed. Suddenly, out of the shadows loomed the ominous black hull of the river patrol. Rykemann dropped the wheel, scudded back to Ivan’s side, ready. Penetration searchlights scanned the boat. Perspiration stood out in large drops on Ivan’s forehead. Faint orders were barked aboard the approaching vessel. Hoisted to the edge of the boat. Ivan lay helpless waiting only for the strong arms to send him plunging into the icy depths. All at once, out of darkness down river, a splintering crash echoed to them! Fire burned from two colliding vessels. Shrieks, sirens rent the air. The patrol hesi¬ tated an interminable moment; then swung toward the wreckage. In the corner of the deck. Ivan kneeled and prayed. Even when he sensed the overhang of the trees and felt the nudge of the boat as it touched the shore, he remained perfectly still. Reverently. Ivan Karpatsky stepped on free German soil as the great Iron Curtain swung silently closed behind him shrouded in the swirling mists of the night. And the boy answered, “I have but one master. He does not dwell here, but in a kingdom far away more beautiful than any seen on earth. All 1 have belongs to Him. and if thou wouldst take what is His, I will fight thee to the death!” So saying, he rushed upon the Devil. Clash of sword upon sword, shield upon shield mingled with the Devil ' s blasphemies. The horses shied and threw their riders who sprang together to writhe and wrestle in the dust. Long they fought but suddenly with one quick leap Sir Kevin stood victorious while the Devil lay exhausted at his feet. Then cried the Victor. Feign would I slay thee. Sir Devil, but ' tis not my Master ' s will. Get thee hence and never show thy face upon this earth, for if thou dost thou shalt not ride in peace while any of my line shall live! Get thee gone!” And so the Devil mounted his limping steed and sullenly returned to his fiery cavern. Tis true this happened in the long ago. in days of knighthood and many petty kings, yet still today the kindred of Sir Malcolm, of Sir Casper. Sir Edward, and Sir Harold move about the earth. But where are they of good Sir Kevin ' s lineage? Where are the noble, the merciful, the just? They are as hard to find as that sweet “Grail — and men grow weary in the search. Paae Thirty “ THE SPARTALOGU E ' - - 1954 Cadet Inspection W ITH the blare of bugles reverberating from the walls, the 1953 cadet inspection got under way in the F.C.I. gym which served as a battlefield when a pelting rain drove the Cadet corps indoors. The cadets, undaunted by the unco-opera¬ tive elements, made a particularly fine show¬ ing under the leadership of C l.t. Col. Don Bradley and C Major John Clcminson. sec¬ ond in command. C Majors Bob Wade and Doug Baton, in charge of the A and B companies, proficiently led their cadets through the inspection. Commander Curry, commanding officer of H.M.C.S. Hunter, and a former student of Forster was the reviewing officer for the inspection: with the other officers present, he watched the cadets in a marchpast. and platoon and specialist drills. The band, capably trained by Mr. Welch, and led by Drum Major Tom Noble made an exceptionally fine display. Also distinguish¬ ing themselves were the members of the precision squad under the direction of C Capt. Doug Baton. The precision marching, a new addition to the Forster Cadet Corps, was greatly enjoyed by the spectators. Also very successful were first aid demonstrations, the Bren gun manoeuvres and field signals led by C Lt. Bob Hamilton. SI ft )OTlNG COM PETITION Regular practice in the range brought re¬ wards to a number of cadets. Major Kent presented them with D.C.R.A. crests for out¬ standing ability on the rifle team and Mr. Ellis awarded the Dieppe Trophy to the mem¬ bers of the 10B rifle team, winners of the Interform Rifle Shooting Championship. The school team, participating against sixty-five other Ontario schools, took thirteenth place. In his closing remarks Commander Curry commended the officers and cadets on their fine display in all fields of activity. CADET CAMPS Forster Collegiate sent thirteen cadets to Camps Ipperwash and Borden last summer and they represented their school very admir¬ able. Nine of the cadets were awarded cer¬ tificates of merit — the highest award obtain¬ able at these camps. The nine outstanding cadets were C Sgt. Lt. Beter Masson. C Lt. Bill Johnston. C Sgt. Major Tom Yates. C Sgt. Km Bradley. C Sgt. Major Frank Dietzel. Cadet Ron Fleming. C l.t. Jim Caf- frav. C Sgt. Gerald Howatt and Cadet John Sparling. In addition to the award of merit. C l.t. Beter Masson and C Lt. Bill Johnston received further honours. Beter was judged the best of the five hundred cadets in the Driver Mechanics’ course at Camp Borden and rated the second best driver in the course. Bill Johnston was appointed company com¬ mander in charge of one hundred and forty cadets and nominated for the best of the fifteen hundrd cadets at Ipperwash. THIS YEAR Especially for the Centennial celebration, there will be a mass Cadet parade at Jackson Bark this year. With cadet corps from all the Windsor collegiates participating, this should be one of the most colourful events of the centennial year. We have no doubt what¬ soever that the Forster Cadet Corps, under the guidance of Mr. Whetstone and the field leadership of Lt. Col. R. B. Wade, officer com¬ manding. C Major Doug. Baton, second i c. and Battalion Adjutant C Capt. Bill Butter¬ field. will acquit itself proudly on that red- letter day. The company commanders will be C Major Beter Masson for A Company, and C Major Bill Johnstone for B Company. Completely in charge of C Maj. Doug. Patou, the thirty-four cadets in the precision squad will give a display worth watching. The band, under C Drum Major Tom Noble will, no doubt, put on its usual excellent per¬ formance. A guard of honour composed of fifteen cadets from each school will be in attendance when Brig. Gibson, commanding officer of the Western Ontario area, inspects the Wind¬ sor Cadet Corps.

We are certain that the many opportunities to play in either interform or intercollegiate games have developed a high de¬ gree of athletic ability and sports¬ manship in all our students.

Regular practices for many weeks before the meet developed the talent of our athletes, and Mr Whetstone ' s and Miss Gurney ' s fine coaching was rewarded when our school captured top positions in all classes. The Junior boys placed first in the W.S.S.A. competition, while the Seniors placed third in a field of strong competitors. The girls again brought honours to the school by winning the Senior division and tying Walkervillc for the Junior title. The Junior team fought off strong opposition by the other schools to win the Junior Boys ' championship with a total of 25 points. Gary Tucker won the individual title with a total of 16 points. He placed first in the Low Hurdles, High Jump and Pole Vault and fourth in the Shot Put. Jim Johnson placed 2nd in the Pole Vault and Jim Cruickshanks won a 3rd in the Shot Put. The relay team put up a real fight and came in second. The Seniors proved very strong in the W.S.S.A. com¬ petition and finished third in total points. Ken Bottoms won the discus event with a record hurl of 113 ' 18 i and also gained a 2nd in the High Jump and Shot Put. Kerr and Thompson each won a 3rd in the High Jump and Javelin respectively. Both Lome Willis and Gerry Guenther put in good showings as did many other hard- fighting Spartans GIRLS Forster Collegiate, always a power in girls ' track and field activity, again outclassed the other schools by win ning the Senior Girls ' team title, tying Walkervillc for the Junior title and placing second for the Intermediate team crown. If there had been an over all team cham¬ pionship, Forster would have walked off with it for the eighth consecutive year. Miss Gurney ' s top notch team paced by Anne Haeber- lin, Joanne Caton and Ethel Mercer chalked up twenty- two points in the senior class. Anne Haeberlin ranked second with nine points m the individual totals. She ran the seventy-five yard dash in 9.7 seconds to rate a first and came second in standing broad and fourth in the high jump. Joanne Caton placed second in the 75 yard dash, Florence Senfa, third in running broad and Ethel Mercer came second in the high jump. In the Junior Division, Forster Girls tied with Walker- ville. Karel Cattenach was runner-up with 10 points. She came first in the running broad with 15 ' 2 , second in the 75 yard dash and third in the soft ball throw. Bonnie Howe took a first in the 75 yard dash in 9.9 seconds and Nancy Bowen placed first in the high jump with 4 ' 8 . In the Standing Broad Jump Elizabeth Porter received a second. BOYS ' W.O.S.S.A MEET In London, at the W.O.S.S.A a group of Spartanites represented Forster C.I. under the scarlet and white ban¬ ner. These young men coached by Mr. Whetstone gave a very good account of themselves. Veteran Ken Bottoms represented our Seniors and won the discus event with a record throw of 127 ' 9 l . This record should stand for a long time. The Junior Boys, led by Larry Bennett and Gary Tucker, also brought glory to their Alma Mater by win¬ ning the Junior Bovs ' Championship. Altogether these cinder pounders scored 21 points. Larry Bennett and Gary Tucker combined to score 20 points. Tucker took a first in the Pole Vault with a jump of 9 ' 4 , and placed third in the High Jump, 3rd in Low Hurdles and 4th in Hop. Step and Jump. Bennett ran the 120 yard Low Hurdles in 16.1 seconds, placed second in the Hop, Step and Jump. 4th in the 220 yard dash and 4th in Broad Jump. Jim Johnson again placed 4th in Pole Vault. Mr. Whetstone expeas great things from these boys this year. Ken ' s Collegiate athletic career reached a climax last year when he was presented the Royal Arcanum Trophy which is sponsored by A.K.O. This trophy is given an¬ nually to the athlete who is voted Windsor ' s most out¬ standing sport. Ken increased his fame by winning the Ontario Discus Championship at Lake Couchiehing and breaking the On¬ tario record by a thrust of 137 ' 8 ' 2 . Later he won national honours at Winnipeg by winning the Canadian Discus Championship. From all of these came a 4-year scholarship to the University of Michigan. “THE SPARTALOGUE — 1954 Page Thirty-Six Front Row — Mr. Steadman, Albert Ambedian, Camille Haddad, Walt. Parashak.

Bill Kerr FOOTBALL INTRAMURAL As in past seasons, a great deal of interest and en¬ thusiasm was shown in intramural football. Sparked by such outstanding players as Larry Bennett, Bob Davis, Stu Mills, Ted Seagull, Bill Karpuick and Roy Stubbing- ton. the teams played such keenly contested games that the championship could have been won by any one of the four leading contenders. At the end of the regular schedule, the Speedsters, led by Harry Todd, John Dewhirst and Ken Kernaghan. finished in first place with a record of four wins and one defeat. The Peanuts. Fumblers, and Phantoms each with three wins and two losses shared second spot, while the Royals, led by John Hope and Norm Haugan finished the schedule with two victories and three setbacks, and the Shamrocks, captained by Harold Babington, completed the season with five defeats in as many starts. In the semi-final playoffs, the Speedsters eliminated the Fumblers 18-0 and the Peanuts edged out the Phantoms 11 - 10 . The final game resulted in an 18-6 victory for the Speedsters over the Peanuts, and a most successful intra¬ mural season ended. Mr. Brown, under whose direction the teams are organized, is able, through this league to discover and develop many bright prospects for the senior team. INTERCOLLEGIATE The 1953 edition of the Forster football team displayed Despite setbacks administered by Kennedy in the “Pig¬ skin Preview and Assumption in the initial game of the season, the Spartan team, losing none of its spirit, im¬ proved steadily under the able coaching of Mr. Steadman and Mr. Krol. Patterson, who provided the opposition in the second game, met a strong and determined Forster squad which, after being down 12-0 at the end of the first half, rallied to outscore the Panthers in the last two quarters How¬ ever. the Spartans were unable to overcome the margin and the game ended with Patterson winning 18-12. Con¬ tinuing their resolute bid for a play-off spot. Forster, after dropping an 8-0 decision to Walkerville Tartans, trounced Vocational 22-5. In the final game of the season against Kennedy, the Forster team fought back hard in the last quarter to within one touchdown of the Clippers How¬ ever, their bid came too late and Kenndy won 17-11. This year with the squad relying on team play, there were no individual stars. Richard Howitt, aided capably by end Doug Carr and flying wing Richard Dungy, sparked the backfield while Ross Archibald anc Frank Stedman were the mainstays of the line. The coaches believe that Forster will rise in the stand¬ ings next season when the return of some veterans and the development of such prospects as Gary Tucker a nd Dean Saul will bolster the strength of the team. THE SPARTALOGUE” — 1954 Page Thirty-Seven HOCKEY Over the public address system a hollow voice was heard. “Forster ' s starting lineup! In goal. Archibald! On defence, Stephens and Rudkin! At centre. Howitt. with Davis and Bradley on the wings. Led by Captain Richard Howitt and backed up by good reserves, the boys presented a much-improved combina¬ tion. The leading scorer was Howitt with six goals and three assists. Other goal getters were Bob Davis with one goal and two assists. Bob Ord. Stuart Mills and Eddie James. Although the team was able to collect only one point as a result of a tie with Kennedy, the young Spartans played good hockey and in the second half of the season became a real threat to the rest of the league. The Spartans were coached by Mr. Silcox and managed by Doug Paton with Frank Dietzel assisting. Do not be surprised if next year Forster has a definite contender in the hockey league. GIRLS ' SWIMMING The W.S.S.A. Swimming Meet will be held after the Spartalogue goes to press — April 16th. This year Forster has many promising Juniors and we re counting on Sandra MeLeay. Elizabeth Ord. Margaret White. Iris Masropian. and Nora Jean Boyd to score their share of points. Margaret Carson was runner-up for the Junior individual championship last year. This year, she moves up to Senior competition and should be in the thick of the fight for Senior honours. ROYAL LIFE-SAVING CLASSES This year classes were held in Royal Lifesaving for the first time. The group made a very good start. There were twelve students and three instructors and all passed the tests successfully. The following were awarded the Bronze Medal¬ lion: Nora Jean Boyd, Diane Campbell, Marjorie Dubs. Carol Moores. Arleen Moores. Elizabeth Porter, Iris Masropian. May Sirdashney, Betty Stott. Margagret White, Judy Paton and Anne Haeberlin. Pat Teahan. Anne Johnston and Diane Yates were awerded the Instructor ' s Certificate. Elizabeth McLister also helped with some of th instruction. Margagret Carson and Sandra MeLeay have been conducting Red Cross swim classes all winter and they are planning to take these tests in the Spring. Augustine Trophy Winners Golf bags slung jauntily over their shoulders. Mr. Brown and several prospective Ben Hogans set out one afternoon in early October to represent Forster at the annual competition held at the Dominion Golf Club. Sparked by such stars as John Luda, Wally Paraschak. Gerry Guenther, Morris Paliwoda and Walter Woytowich, Forster copped the William Augustine Trophy by terminating Vocational’s six- year winning streak. The editors wish to extend special congraulations to John Duda, who with an exceptionally low score of seventy-five, topped the best golfers in Windsor and received a medal for his fine efforts. Under Mr. Brown ' s superior coaching, the boys won the championship by carding a final score of 333 points, five points ahead of the Kennedy Clip¬ pers who came in with a 338.

The 1953-54 edition of the Forster Spartans in the Senior loop appeared to be the best in many a year. Although Forster dropped the opener to a powerful Patterson team, they bounced back to defeat Walkerville and the Roughriders 43-28 and 52-39 respectively. However, at this point the luck went against the Spartans, and they lost the re¬ maining games of the season. Most of the defeats were heartbreaking when, after building up an early lead, the boys would slip during the last half and be edged out in the final moments by 2 or 3 points. The seniors still had a chance to make the playoffs in the last game of the season, but were again edged out 33-27 by Assumption. This year’s team had no individual stars as in other years. Fighting hard and always doing their best were Gerry Weingarden, A1 Mills, Dick Dungy, Gord Kirk, Doug Carr, and Bill Kerr. Mr. Krol should have a fine senior team next year when several stars from the junior team join with Carr, Dave Johnson, and Art Henderson. JUNIOR W.S.S.A. The juniors showed such promise that before the season began they were named as favorites. They launched the season with a sizzling victory over the Panthers. The Spartans lost a close one 41-40, in overtime to Walkerville, and redeemed themselves with an overtime victory against Kennedy. The Juniors then dropped two games to the Rough- riders and the Raiders, beat Patterson, and lost once more to Walkerville. The boys gained the playoffs by defeating Kennedy and Tech before losing to Assumption. However, the Spartans were defeated by Assumption in the first round of the playoffs by a 48-28 score. Leading the team with outstanding performances were Gary Tucker, Dean Saul, and Don Erskine. Also doing their best for the cause were Bill Kar- puick. Gord Law, and Jim Johnston. Despite the fact that several of these boys are moving up into the Senior ranks, the Junior team, under the guidance of Mr. Courtney, should be a strong contender for next year ' s crown. HOUSE LEAGUE This year saw the inauguration of the House League Basketball competition. The senior division was composed of the J.L.F. ' s, the Canadians, the Rams, the Junior B’s, the Wildcats, and the Hoop- sters. The Internationals, Lions, Blue Wings, Pea¬ nuts, Celtics, Phantoms, and Raiders, made up the Junior league. The final standings in the Senior league found the J.L.F. ' s, led by Ken Young, in first place fol¬ lowed by Eddie James ' Canadians, and the Junior B ' s, Albert Ambedians ' Rams defeated the Wildcats, captained by Ariss, to break a tie for 4th spot and the last playoff position. In the semi-finals, the Canadians won against the Junior B’s and the J.L.F.’s defeated the Rams. The Canadians then went on to win the championship by defeating the J.L.F.’s 11-8. The leading scorers in the Senior league were Ed Thompson (94 points), Fred Todman and Bob Weingarden. In the Junior division, the end of the season saw the Lions, Celtics, Internationals, and Raiders oc¬ cupying the top four positions in that order. The Lions, led by Bolton, defeated McKenny ' s Raiders, while Stewie Mills led the Internationals to victory over the Celtics in the semi-finals. The Interna¬ tionals became the champions after downing the Lions 7-5. The top point-getters in the league were Bob Weingarden (76 points), closely followed by Mills, Shorter and Karpuick. The games in both leagues were well played. A vote of thanks is extended to all who refereed and timed the games as well as Mr. Krol. GIRLS—INTERCOLLEGIATE Our senior girls battled their way to second place in the W.S.S.A. basketball league, missing the first position by only one game. Under the excellent coaching of Miss Gurney, assisted by Miss Mun- nings, the team steadily improved as the season progressed and would have won the pennant but for a defeat in the early part of the season. Starting off with great spirit, they walloped the Patterson Panthers 33-32 on our home floor and won the return match by a score of 38-37. In their next start they were overthrown by a strong Walkerville squad, but then they came back to win decisive victories against Vocational 29-23 and 33- 21. They overwhelmed Kennedy by scores of 20-18 and 42-19. Their only other loss was to Walkerville by a score of 33-28. The high scorers of the year were Deanne White- side with 75 points. Karel Cattanach with 72, and Phyllis Klein with 65 points. Congratulations also go to the strong guard line consisting of Anne Haeberlin (captain), Evelyn Crowder, Jo-Ann Caton and Caro Armstrong.

Marg White. Beverly Murphy. Joyce Brent and Marg Sparling were among the promising voting athletes from Grade Nine looking for¬ ward to another successful year on the Junior squad. Barb Conrick, Karel Cattenack and Eileen McKettrick helped spark the team to¬ ward victory. Senior Volleyball Th Senior volleyball team completed a lull season as runners-up to the championship Walkervile team. Throughout the season the team fought hard and dropped their only game to the powerful Walkerville Lassies. The Forster squad was led by such veterans as Phyllis Klein, Anne Haeberlin. Deanne Whiteside. Mavis McCuaig. Evelyn Crowder and Caro Armstrong. Nancy Weir and Gail Parker were among the outstanding new addi¬ tions from Grade 11 to the Senior team. Interform Volleyball From the novice Grade niners to the seasoned players of grade thirteen, interform volleyball provided com¬ petitive sport for all those girls in the school who were interested. After completing a heavy schedule of games, the teams entered the semi-final and final contests. In the semi-finals, ISA defeated 11D and 1 IB elimin¬ ated 12B. Thus. ISA and 11B, Kith determined to win. entered the finals. Although 1SA fought doggedly. 11B proved the stronger of the two teams and took the senior pennant. In the race for the grade 10 pennant, 10D ruled out LOB and 10C ousted 10E during the semi-finals. The exciting finals were completed with 10D on top. Although the girls who participated in the grade nine league were rank beginners, they improved rapidly and in most cases were playing like veterans as the season progressed. Concluding the semi-finals. 9C defeated 9A and 9B edged out 9E. The final clash saw 9B become champions by defeating the stubborn 9C team. Special credit should be given to the girls in grades 11. 12. and 13 who contributed to the success of the inter¬ form league by helping in the scoring, timing and refereeing of the games. BASKETBALL CONTINUED FROM PAGE 39 INTERFORM—GIRLS The girls ' interform basketball schedule was one of the most successful events of the school year. Nearly two hundred girls participated in the games and there was keen competition in all divisions. Each team played eight games, and then the leaders went on to semi-finals and finals. At the end of the regular season, 11A was in first place followed .closely by 12B, 13A and 11B. These four teams went on to the two-game semi-final series. The victors, 12B and 13A clashed in the finals. Although both teams were determined and fought hard to win, 12B finally came out on top as victors. June Albrough playing for 11A was top scorer with 38 points. Gail Chamberlain of 11A chalked up 25 points and Phyllis Klein of 12B had 24 points. The junior interform schedule was also filled with close competition and great enthusiasm. In the Grade X league 10D finished in first place with 12 points and IOC was dose behind with 10 points. Ten B Commercial and 10E followed. In the playoffs, 10D defeated Commercial and 10E defeated 10C. The finals saw 10D down 10E to become the Grade 10 champions. In the Grade IX section, 9A ended the season in first place followed by 9E and 9C who were tied for second, and 9B. The semi-finals were very close games. Nine A defeated 9B and 9B won out against 9C. The final game was played two days later and the champion 9A team took the pennant when they defeated 9E. The success of the interform competition is due largely to the efforts of Miss Gurney, Miss Cushnie and all the girls who acted as referees, time keepers and scorers. INTERFORM LEAGUE A new scheme was tried during the second half of the basketball season. Three leagues (Grade 9. Grade 10, and Sniors) were organized instead of the usual two. Approxi¬ mately one hundred games were played with a hundred and fifty boys participating. At the end of the schedule. 9E emerged the victors in the Grade 9 league. 10C took the championship in the Grade 10 league and 13A won top honours in the Senior League.

We hop into clothes, And rush to the bus stop— Where ' s the bus? There it goes! We clomp into class. With a minute to spare. And chatter like magpies, And pull each other ' s hair. Now come the lessons Which we are to learn, But they bore us to death. So we thrash and we churn. Till poor teacher cries out. In utter dismay. And curses the pupils Of awful 9A. “MARGIE At the cost of a few gallons of midnight oil. 9A now treasures the library pennant. Congrats to our ' girls ' basketballettes.

How could a mere male know?” A BOY A boy is a very strange being He likes to roam and dance, But if you wish great things to come Just give a boy a chance. A GIRL Although she knows it’s useless. When sitting, she will seize Her dress and make an effort To hide her dainty knees. As Gail Barnden answered the door — and it happened to be Miss Scanlan: Miss Scanlan: “Is Mrs. Boyd here? Gail, unhappily: Would we be this quiet if she wasn’t?” NINE B One card in class, we must posses: One guy who’s full of devilness. He plays the part of a silly clown. But from the teachers gets a frown. All day in school he croons a song He’s not too bad. but I’ve been wrong. He plays at hockey and as you see Now he gets his required degree (60%). If his name you have not guessed After what I’ve disclosed. I’ll be blest, It’s dear John Bayton of old 9B— That long and lanky catastrophe.
