MR. DRIEDGER AS A TEACHER! What have I done to deserve this? Because of his busy schedule he has not always been able to do justice to his good intentions with the Grade XII ' s. Promises, promises, all I give is promises! Not that I think any of you Grade XII ' s had anything to do with it, but I ' ll tell you any¬ how ... All students respect and obey him.

The Valedictory Address 1966 by Allan Koliinyk My fellow graduates have entrusted to me the responsibility of representing them as valedictorian on the most memorable day of their present lives. A day which will long be remembered and looked back upon In the future as one of the most momentous or surely one of the most sensitively unforgettable experiences they have ever lived through. For having lived through this day Is an experience In Itself. You see before you fourteen tense nervous bodies; fourteen oager pulsating hearts; fourteen happy successful minds. These bodies wait on the threshold of the future. These minds have traversed twelve trying years of edu¬ cation. Following the eternal path of nature, the past has been spent In preparation for the future. Through these twelve years we have ravaged the carcass of learning to food our starved minds the rudi¬ mentary, yet compulsory diet which shall nourish them on their search for success. We have tom the skin of Its language; wo have ripped the flesh of Its history; we have chewed the cartilage of Its arts; we have sampled the organs of Its science; wo have gnawed the bones of Its mathematics; we have sucked the marrow of Its Individuality; we have tasted the blood of Its progress. However, there have boon enjoyable side dishes to this main course. Variety has been added by the salad of sports. The spice of new friends has seasoned the sauce of teamwork. Extra-curricular activities have been the sweetness of dessert. The short sips of mild zesty wine, tin holidays, have numbed our senses and released our thoughts to relax and ruminate. We were Innocent of education when we first began to attend classes. During the first years, school was something different, a place for fun and games, a place holding new friends, Then In the Intermediate years the attitude of curiosity prevailed and we wore drawn to class for the fun of learning and also for the pleasures of recreation awaiting us there. But these moods of happiness and enjoyment towards school soon passed, Wo had become teenagers. Wo had begun to mature. Wo had begun to face problems, begun to realize that life was not the big bright beautiful bowl of cherries wo once thought It to be. And as wo began to see the world as It really was, as people really were, as life really was, we began to lose our contentment with our lots In life, we began to lose our gratification towards school. We longed to bo free, to bo older, to bo rich, to be anything but what wo presently wore. Independence ran fast, but tndclslon knocked It off balance. Those last four or five years have been the hardest. Luckily, we were fortunate enough to have people who sincerely cared for us; who wore genuinely concerned about our futures. Those are the people who pushed us to and through high school In our moods of Impatience. These are the people who taught us responsibility, virtue, Independence, co-operation, truth and knowledge, not to mention a thousand and one more Invaluable lessons. These are the people truly responsible for this moment of victory. These people are You! Especially you the Parents; and of course the Teachers! Without you this day . . . our whole life would have been Impossible, and our success of the future Is the fruit of your labour. If wo never have said It before, let us now say that our gratitude towards you Is immeasurable. Your care, your sacrifices, have Initiated this, a most important day In our lives, and we sincerely and humbly thank you. 7
