GORDON BELL HIGH SCHOOL Room 8 -m- ELL! Well! I guess Room 8 has a history all its own. When everything ill is summed up, I think we have gained quite a reputation throughout the good old seat of learning. Well, just to give some boys the thrill of see¬ ing their names in print, we will discuss the room officials. In the role of President is Gus Bowie, a popular and capable fellow. Next we have Rod Wilson, who is the Vice-President of the school. This distinguished personage presides in office in the absence of Gus. Of course, we can’t forget Howard Mullins, who had the arduous and almost impossible task of collecting money. When we turn to the sports, ' ‘Nellie” Potter, who is very popular, occupies the position of Sports Captain. Incidentally, “Nellie” is also Captain of Grade X Sports. Quite a record for the room, eh? In regard to the Literary section, “The Wash” of Room 8 has quite a reputa¬ tion also. The editor, Joe O’Connell, has brought out the dirt in regular periods. He was assisted in this task by Norm Matheson and Earl Johnson, who served as sub-editors. The ruler of this vast regime is Mr. Simms, who has worked hard all year to make Room 8 the best room in the whole school. Up to date he has not been absent one-half day, and that is a record. During the year he planned many interesting events which were received with enthusiasm. In all, I think that Room 8 has weathered the storm, and that our campaign was an overwhelming success.
