Headmaster William E. P. Currie As the volume of advertising necessary to sustain a hard-cover edition of THE GRAMMARIAN has not been available to us this year, the eleventh edition of our school yearbook has reverted to a more economical bi nding. Apart from this, every effort has been made to maintain the written and pictorial quality of former years. I would like to offer my sincere congratulations to the entire Editorial Board for their determination to keep THE GRAMMARIAN alive and healthy despite the obstacles. W. E. P. Currie Headmaster Miss Joan Mclntyre Miss Marilyn Monroe 3

Graduating Class KAMAL BIR CHOPRA There is no substitute for hard work. - Edison Kamal demonstrates a dedication to the field of academics, a tested to by iiis incessant telephone calls requesting academic aid. With considerable expertise in badminton, he is often to be found supporting Unicorn on the badminton court, and in season, on the soccer pitch. During the summer, he enjoys golfing at the Ashburn Golf and Country Club. Academically, Kamal is well- known for his precise calculations in physics and chemistry, and enjoys quibbling with Dr. Morris over the odd decimal place. Kamal, as his fellow English-students will attest, is also at home in the humanities where he does not hesitate to champion his own interpretations even when opposed by a majority of his colleagues. He has the courage of his own convictions. Whatever he does, or wherever he wanders, Kamal ' s confreres will find him cheerful and helpful. HUGH ALEXANDER CORSTON Let school masters puzzle their brain with grammar and nonsense and learning: Good liquor, I stoutly maintain, Gives genius a better disc erning. Hugh ' s enthusiasm for the Student Council, of which he ' s the Vice President, is only surpassed by his interest in academics. As a member of the celebrated board , Hugh thrills the class with stories of the adventures of the meetings. Hugh ' s prowess in French has earned him a position in the French Drama Club (those who saw the French plays will attest to his excellence, especially as a lover). The less academic side of life finds Hugh enjoying skiing and sailing. Hugh ' s proficiency in sailing has earned him a possible position on the waterfront this summer. The fall term will find Hugh at Dalhousie, taking from our school his wit, humor, and brain. LEAH EDELSTEIN I met a lady on the meads. Full beautiful — a faery ' s child. Her hair was long, her foot was light, And her eyes were wild. — Keats In a collection of hectic scholars, Leah is an oasis of calm. Her quiet excellence in studies, attested to by a first in last year ' s Canadian Association of Physicists examination and one of the highest scholastic averages in the class, is merely one facet of her personality. This lady also has a dangerous side. She plays Antigone in drama and queen in life with equal veracity and equal success. We can only wonder what heights she will reach when she goes to Berkeley next year. 5
