The Students of The Halifax Grammar School Welcome You To The 1975 Edition of The Grammarian

Page 7 text:

Dedication We the students of the Halifax Grammar School respectfully dedicate the 1975 Grammarian to the memory of the late Dr. Samuel Morris. Although Dr. Morris had not been well for some time his death came with great shock and sadness to all those who had known him. He was born in Glasgow Scotland in 1905 and in 1928 he graduated with his B.Sc. with honors in pure and agricultural Chemistry from the University of Glasgow. He later earned his doctorate from the same University in 1935 in animal nutrition. From 1929-1952 he was a research biochemist and then later taught at the Heath Clarke Grammar School in Croyden England until 1961 at which time he went to Australia to teach first at Scots College and finally at the Trinity Grammar School before joining the staff at the Halifax Grammar School in September of 1967. Dr. Morris contributed to many aspects of school life. His high standard of physics teaching led to many top awards received in the physics congress examination by Grammar School Students. His enthusiasm at soccer matches and as Unicorn house advisor will never be forgotten. He brought chess to the school in the form of the chess club and his abiding interest in and eagerness for chess matches encouraged and main- tained the students ' interest in chess for the past several years. Sammy , as he was affectionately known among his students had a great sense of humour and he has been sorely missed this past year. Ken Gordon Editor-in-chief
