Graduating Class DAVID GORDON BLACK Come on now boys, let ' s play hockey . — Dale Turner, 1973 Gord ' s contagious enthusiasm, sincerity, good humour, rehability, and virtuous conduct have made him probably the most popular figure in the history of H.G.S. David lives up to his stature daily whether through his position on the Student Council, his chairmanship of the Noodles Fougere Ski Club, his captainship of Unicorn (where his unlikely battle cry of Eunuch has produced winning results), his coaching of Kid ' s hockey, his lead in the Yorkshire Puddings, and his managership of the soccer team. Clad impeccably in his Brogues, David has been known to Dash and Dart off to various ground hockey functions where his deceptive pull-the-string and ratelle-off-the- post move is both feared and laughed at. We are certain David ' s life will be prosperous, for his winning attitude will follow him as he skulls the ball of destiny down the road of life. Dalhousie PETER MARTIN STEWART BRYSON Of all the girls that are so smart, There ' s none like pretty ' Debbie ' . — Swift Hats off to Peter Bryson, House Captain of Hector. He ' s so involved when on the move You ' d think he was a spectre. In sports he ' s really right on top; In reading he ' s the best. And, when he ' s acting Romeo, He sure does show some zest. Someday he plans to study Law; Like Voltaire he shall succeed. Yet he always finds the time To do a kindly deed. A friend like him is super great; You might say he ' s real cool. He is in every way a credit To the Grammar School. MARCUS JEFFRY BURNSTEIN . . . and loving it. Burnie ' s love of leisure is only equalled by his fanatical desire to justify it. Nevertheless, Marc performs academic acrobatics which are an example to all. Often to be found on the soccer pitch, displaying the Burnstein style , or on the ice, applying a similar method, flipping in goals from any position. This athletic wonder is oblivious to his fame. Not averse to female companionship, Burnie will always guarantee a lively party. As a variety of Marc ' s feminine admirers will indicate, great things come in small packages. Though reason comes in small doses. Marc never ceases to amaze us with the abundance of his share. Dalhousie 6

GREGOR CAMPBELL The very hairs of your head are all numbered. — Matthew X 30 After four years at H.G.S., Gregor has shown his abilities to lie both inside and outside the academic sphere of life; his interests tend towards the outside. A talented speaker and debater, he is always ready with sound, serious opinions and sarcastic advice. An ardent music fan, Gregor devotes much of his time and interest to stereo and his albums. Along with Tony Gillis, he produced most of the ' dances ' at the school, and met with contemplative ecstasy in the surroundings of Traynor, J.B.L. and Ampeg. Gregor ' s other major interest is his bike, a majestic creation whose campeg beauty leaves him bewildered and forced onto his old one-speed. Greg further devotes his enthusiasm to supporting the hockey team through his efforts on the Murphline — first goal for the Murphline (King ' s, March 13). Other interests include sailing, listening to the M.G. story, and, as of this year, skiing. At present Gregor is uncertain what he will do next year, but he will no doubt be taking his parachute sack of books to Dal. JAMES LANTZ COL WELL A-mazing I suppose! ?! A longtime student of HGS, Jimmy never hesitates to stun fellow students and teachers with his irrefutable logic. As a member of the triumvirate, Jim became the second diver of the trio back in the early fall, and when not going out or diving, he can usually be found either in his car or at Colwell Bros, selling anything from a coat to a pair of socks. After twelve years here in HGS, Jim plans to spend four years at Dal and elsewhere looking into the field of medicine. But whether he ' s a doctor or a tugboat captain, Jimmy will get on well — even if he does confuse everyone. PHILIP MAURICE JOHN EVANS God! I ' m a genius. — P.M. J. Evans Very rarely in one ' s life does one come to know a person of whom everyone thinks the same ; but such is the case with Phihp. He is a member of the Neptunes swim team, is fond of ten-speed bikes, and has more than a healthy interest in girls. Philip enjoys using his hands and likes working with silver, metals, and electronics equipment. He is also an avid bridge player. Philip is a remarkable person when he wishes to get something done; but otherwise it takes a great deal of persuasion to get Philip to do anything. An unique character, Philip is some one special and definitely adds something to the class.
