GORDON BELL HIGH SCHOOL 41 ROOM 22 ■fillHOOPS! Here we are! After you have waded through the somewhat dry and tedious notes which have gone before, we are sure that the news of our doings will prove a welcome change; so now everybody, Stop! took! and Read! while we attempt to give you an account of our school activities under the able leadership of Miss Hewton, with the help of Chrystabel Webb as President, Pat Litchfield as Vice-President, Irene |Covsky as Secretary-Treasurer, and Helen Halldorson as Sports Captain, llelen also became Girls’ Sports Captain for the school as well as a mem¬ ber of the volley-ball and basketball teams. I Aase Bratvold, our “Garbo,” represented us as “Olivia” in “Twelfth j ight,” and was also on the volleyball team. I We have our share of musicians too, for we have three orchestra mem¬ bers in the persons of Joyce Cassidy, Eleanor Ward and Lillian Kluckner, :$ind numerous chorus members; in fact, too numerous to name. 1 Early in the term we had a successful weiner roast in Fort Garry and fater a hike, this time to Polo Park. | Our room paper, edited by Alma O’Neil, was appropriately named the ■‘Schreech Howl” in accordance with our mascot, “Oily the Owl.” “Oily,” ||vith Room 22, wishes to say good-bye, as this draws to a close our four years at Gordon Bell which will always be cherished in our memories as Sour outstanding years of our school life.

GORDON BELL HIGH SCHOOL 43 T. Hatley, P. Crooke ROOM 1 Y OU could not have been in the school long without having heard of us, the first and best room in the school. Because we are next door to the office of our principal does not in any way mean that we cannot make a row or have any fun. ,j You must be anxious to know who our class officers are. The leader is Miss Carruthers, whom we wish to thank for her splendid co-operation and interest in all of the room and school events. Our President, Tom Didmon, represented our room on the school rugby team and in the play “Milestones.” A great help to our President is Phyllis Parry, Vice-Presi¬ dent, who is a very likable and studious girl; she is also in the chorus. Allan Young, our Secretary, collects our money and we have our suspicions of what is done with it. He was our representative in “Twelfth Night.” As Room 1 is a mixed class, we have two Sports Captains—Gordon Sturrock and Grace McDowell, who is making a name for herself in her splendid exhibitions of guardi ng on the school basketball team. Fred Hooke, our cartoonist, has done some fine caricatures. Fred Crooks represents the room in the orchestra. | Our representatives on the girls’ volley-ball team are Jessie Somerville and Phyllis Penny. On the basketball team we have Grace McDowell, Phyllis Penny, and Jessie Somerville. Glenn Allan represented our room on the school hockey and curling teams, and Jimmy Powers on the rugby team. Well, good-bye everybody. We’re all quite sure that we’U be in Grade XI next year, and so . . . good-bye everybody.
