R, Headmaster s Message Wishing the Grammarian, and the students who give it its life, the very best of luck for the coming issue is always pleasant. It gives me an op- portunity to reflect for a moment on not only the contents of the magazine, which are traditionally challenging, interesting, and pleasant, but also on the organizational and team efforts which go into its production. Any magazine that is going to be a success always needs both sound content and contagious enthusiasm. As far as I am concerned, the Grammarian has this. To their eternal credit, the editorial and production staff made an early start and have worked consistently and enthusiastically from the very beginning. Well done, all concerned. Douglas J. Williams, Headmaster. Slaff Front Row: Mr. Spencer, Mrs, MacKenzie, Mrs. Murray, Mr. Naud, Mr. Williams, Mrs. Ottman, Mme. Didier, Mrs. Scobbie, Mr. Masse. Middle Row: Mrs. Kwak, Mrs. von Maltzahn, Mr. Montgomery, Mr. Steele, Mrs. Degrasse Back Row: Mr. Johnstone, Mr. Lancaster, Mr. Wynne, Dr. Webb, Mr. Curtis, Absent: Mrs. Cooper , Mrs. Webb. Grammarian Staff Front Row: B. Padmore, J. Shane, P. Mclntyre, R. Cuperfain, R. Kamra, J. Cuperfain Back Row: Mr. Montgomery, N. Guy, L. Fox, D. Harris, J. Wolman The Grammarian presents a combination of many different aspects of life at the Halifax Grammar School. The articles and photographs for the Grammarian are collected and edited by staff members who must also collect enough money to finance the yearbook. This year ' s staff did a wonderful job. Mr. Montgomery aided us during the year by offering new ideas and then helping us to organize them. A special thank you must be expressed to Lorcan Fox and Leila Eerikainen, who wrote out the litera- ture, and Jenny Thompson and Joel Cuperfain, who typed up the articles. The teachers and Miss Arthur have been very cooperative by putting up with us interrupting their classes and tying up the school telephone lines. I ' d like to say thank you to everyone and Best of Luck to this year ' s graduating class. Editor-in-Chief EDITORIAL BOARD Editor-in-Chief Assistant Editor Photography Editor Assistant Photography Editors Business Manager Assistant Business Managers Literary Editor Assistant Literary Editor Staff Advisor Penny Mclntyre Judith Shane Joel Cuperfain Ronnie Cuperfain Ravi Kamra Jeffrey Wolman David Harris Lorcan Fox Norma Guy Barb Padmore Mr. Montgomery The Graduates JOHN BEAUMONT CAMPBELL BUGDEN He doth nothing but talk of his girls. Jay is one of six members of the class who have been around for the full twelve year cycle. His dependability in business affairs is demonstrated by his appointment to class treasurer and aid to the headmaster. Jay has always been a diligent worker, but at the same time has kept an eye on members of the opposite sex. His exploits in the field of women have spurred many a classroom dis- cussion; and when pushed he shows an excellent sense of humour. Jay is also adept at many forms of athletics. He plans to study sciences at Dalhousie next year, and we all wish him the best of luck. ADAM GORDON COPAS Thinking is to me the greatest fatigue in the world - Sir John Vanbrugh Adam has graced us with his presence at the school for only one year. However, as a newcomer, he was a welcome addition to the upper class. Adam has been a determined worker as he commutes everyday to and from Chester where he resides. Often tired from his early morning awakenings, he fights conscientiously through each school day. The object of many jokes, Adam takes these all in stride as he knows that we but jest. He was formerly with the Canadian Armed Forces but left it, probably on his own accord. As for the future, Adam does not seem too sure of what he will be doing (so what else is new?) but he says he will be studying geology at St. Francis Xavier. All of us wish him the best of luck. He hopes he doesn ' t need it. HOWARD SIDNEY CONTER You have a nimble wit; 1 think ' twas made of Atlanta ' s heels - Shakespeare Howard is one of the six 12-year men in the gradu- ating class. He has been a valuable member ever since his first year at the school. His sharp wit and clever humour never fail to reduce the other members of the class to fits of laughter. Howard has participated in various sports, such as soccer, basketball and rugby, where he inevitably demonstrates his good sportsman- ship. This year Howard has led the student council and helped to keep the Drama Society books in order. He plans to go to Dal. next year, where we ' re sure his sense of humour will be appreciated. We wish you the best of luck, Howard. 8 This page sponsored by Dr. and Mrs. Grover RONALD ARRON CHARLES CUPERFAIN He is a gentleman; you can tell by his hoots. Billy Bootlicker Ronnie has only been at the school a short four years, but it has not taken him long to exert himself as a leader in student affairs. Working on the Grammarian staff for four years, he became editor of the 1976 edition. Ronnie has also shown leadership in athletic activities where he led Glooscap to the house league championship. Along with his athletic career, Ronnie also maintains a high academic standard through his diligent work habits. Ronnie plans to take a Bachelor of Business Administration next year at Dalhousie. We wish him the best of luck. CYNTHIA NELL GROVER Say from whence you owe this strange intelligence? - Shakespeare Cynthia has been with us for seven years, and has added her own unique stamp to the characters of our class. During her years at H.G.S. she has been active in many school activities, notably drama. She has excelled in academics to the extent that she succeeded in winning herself a place at St. Catherine ' s College, Oxford, next year. She is majoring in modern language and the class wishes her good luck at Oxford. SEAN STEWART HAWKINS It ' s clever but is it art? - Kipling A man is never happy except when he is drunk! - Ben Johnson Sean has been with the school for twelve long years and is one of the six veterans. Sean ' s ability to turn any dull moment into a dynamic one has enhanced the class this year. He was active on the soccer field in sub-zero weather aiding the team on to victory. He is also one of the avid cross-country skiers in the class. One can see Sean involved in an intellectual discussion with the schools intelligensia, dragging himself out of an ' all- nighter ' on Gottingen St. with the boys or playing pinball at the SUB. Sean rates himself as ' nearly as good a woodsman as Peter Montgomery ' and his participation in the canoe trips to Keji the past few years has been en- joyed by the members of the class. Sean takes his wit and enthusiasm off to Queens next year and we wish him the best of luck. This page sponsored by Mr. and Mrs. G. Hawkins 9 MARGARET HOPE HELLEINER The Wedding-Guest here beat his breast For he heard the loud bassoon. Coleridge During the seven years that Meg has been part of this class, she has always contributed to its intellectual level in her sensible and thoughtful views. Whenever there is a discussion, Meg is sure to have an opinion that will turn it into an argument, which in turn stimu- lates the unthinking members of the class to formulate new ideas. Music is Meg ' s forte and we are often condemned to hearing her hum a Mozart sonata in the morning. She has taken up the bassoon seriously and belongs to many orchesteral groups throughout the city. With her talent we feel sure that she will do well in her musical future. PHILLIP GEORGE HUNT ' 7 ' ve got a right to feel low down. . . I ' ve got a right to sit and cry. . . All 1 see for me is misery. - Billie Holiday Phil is one of the more sensitive 12 year members of the class. Although he appears to be constantly depres- sed and lonely, this is only a facade. He is in actual fact a very outgoing and sociable person. To be perfectly truthful, he ' s known as a bit of a ' Casanova ' (who else received a Christmas card from Acadian Lines.) As far as academics go, he manages to fit them into his demanding social schedule some where between four in the morning after returning from one of those fabled wild parties. Next year Phil has aspirations of attending Queen ' s University. ABBAS IBRAHM METHIWALLA He who does not understand your silence will probably not understand your words. Elbert Hubbard One of the four newcomers to the class this year, Abbas has quickly eased into the swing of things. While the work was strange at first he has proven himself a diligent and competent worker. His unique sense of hum- our is an asset to our weekly drama classes. An avid sportsman. Abbas participates in both badminton and basketball where he becomes increasingly proficient. If all goes well, we will see Abbas return to Halifax after the summer and attend Dalhousie where he plans to get his bachelor of Commerce. We wish him the very best in whatever he does. Congratulations to the graduates from Mr. and Mrs. W. Hunt NANCY CLAIRE MOORE Anything awful makes me laugh. 1 once misbehaved at a funeral. - Charles Lamb Nancy is one of our class ' most recent additions. Our world traveller , she comes to us directly from Sr. John ' s, Newfoundland. Famous for her laughter at the most inappropriate moments, she came to our school with a smile on her face, and it hasn ' t been far away ever since. Even at the gravest moments of calculus class she can be incapacitated by her unique talent. We all wish Nancy luck and happiness at whichever university she attends and hope that her laughter never leaves her. TILLAY PILLAY If thou will be perfect, go and sell what thou hast and give it to the poor, and thou shall have treasure in heaven. St. Mathew XIX: 221 Without the innumerable mornings which some, if not all of us, have spent admiring Tilly ' s work, we could not have made it through the year. The times we have walked into the classroom on the most miserable of days to be met by that tireless smile. . . Tilly is without doubt, an incredibly diligent worker, not only for herself, but everyone else as well! Although she lacks a weak subject, usually achievirig success in all her endeavors, Tilly plans to further pursue her studies in linguistics at Dalhousie next year. MARTIN THOMAS SULLIVAN What an impetuous boy he is. 1 like his hair so much. Cicily-from ' The Importance of Being Earnest ' - Oscar Wilde Martin bears the great distinction of being a twelve year veteran of the Grammar School. Martin has always been known for his fine sense of humour, but this year all have been pleasently surprised by his ability to turn out fine academic results through hard work. Martin added to the school by being a member of this years Reach For The Top; a participant in the dramatic productions; the house captain of Acadia; and the mana- ger of this years champion soccer team. Next year Martin plans to attend Dalhousie whe re he will grace the dreary halls with his Monty Python im- pressions. Martin created a presence which will be long remem- bered and sorely missed.

Lazier 11 JENNIFER JANE SZERB Be so true to thyseU as thou be not false to others - Bacon Jennifer has attended the Grammar School since grade 1 and has been involved in many of its activities. She has been a prominent member of the debating team and consistently does well in this area. This year, Jennifer is participating in the Drama Society and is doing an ex- cellent job in her role. Her assets are not only limited to debating and drama, but Jennifer also takes part in sports. She can always be seen on the badminton court and has an original basketball shot. Jennifer is planning to go to Queen ' s where we ' re sure she ' ll do well. CHRISTOPHER DAVID WEBSTER Seest thou a man wise in his own conceit? There is more hope for a fool than of him. - Bible Proverbs XXVI Chris Webster is a seven year veteran of the school, and is well acquainted with the ins and outs of H.G.S. In his time here Chris has managed to leave everyone in awe of his mathematical ability. He tends to keep a very conspicuous profile and has attained a high position among the chessplayers of the school. All his classmates wish him luck in his ventures at Waterloo University and hope that he doesn ' t find the citizens of Ontario quite as backwards as he alleges the Nova Scotians are. MEIN CHIONG YEE The theory of probabilities is at bottom nothing but common sense reduced to calculus. Laplace Endowed with a capacity for common sense and logic, Yee enjoys Calculus, Physics, and Algebra. His cap- ability is considerable — 100 is his usual mark in math. Yee possesses the ability to laugh and is often heard laughing at either the class or himself. Since he is anx- ious to assimilate the new, Yee quickly became inter- grated into the class. He has recently learned to skate, and will in the future play hockey as well as badminton, of which he is an undisputed master. Yee intends to go to Dalhousie next year. Later he will study abroad and will no doubt become an excellent physicist. Because of his easy-going manner, Yee will surely be welcomed wherever he goes. This page sponsored by Mr. and Mrs. M.

I Bu -tuio Ojti UflU lie, 47 Class Trips This year more class trips than ever have been organized. Some of these were closely aligned with courses at the school, and others were extracurricular. In the way of History, U3 is planning a special trip to Louisbourg with Mrs. Kwak. Prep 5 is also planning to visit this historic site late in the spring with their teacher Mr. Spencer. Upper 5 is taking part in a French exchange program with students from the College 1 ' Assomption, which is not far from Montreal. The stu- dents spent an enjoyable week at Assomption in February, and the French students will return here in mid-May. The Physics II class spent a week in Boston in early March. There they managed to visit several locations of interest to their course such as Harvard, and M.I.T. Camping trips have been very popular with Upper Five ' s trip to the Maitland Bat Caves, and the camping trips of Upper Six and Four. 48 CANDIDS 49 50 This pnge sponsored by Mr. and Mrs. S.

In the fall we saw our senior B Boys soccer team, coached by Mr. Naud, overcome a poor start to become the Metro E champions. Our junior team, coached by Mr. Lancaster, travelled to Ottawa and there played against many of the private schools from across Canada. Though they didn ' t win any matches their good sportsmanship was noticed by all. Our senior boys and girls volleyball teams did very well for their first year in the provincials. The senior boys team, coached by Mr. Montgomery, played several exhibition games and won more than their share. At the provincial C tournament in River Hebert our H.G.S, team performed well and gained a lot of experience. Our senior girls team, coached by Mr. Naud, also played several exhibition games and, like the boys, did very well. In the central zone play-offs our girls were second only to the Convent of the Sacred Heart. In a private tournament held a Kings Re- gional Rural high again our girls were second, being beaten by the team from Kings. Under Mrs. Scobbie ' s leadership our fencing team is fast becoming one of the finest in Nova Scotia. After having participated in several tourna- ments our fencers have placed high in the standings. Luke Murphy placed first in the Joseph Howe tournament and in the Ottawa Shield. Badminton was run on a recreational basis this year under the leader- ship of Tilly Pillay. It has been proved to be quite a successful program. After a fairly successful basketball season last year Mr. Curtis had the difficult task of rebuilding his senior boys basketball team. The girls basketball team at present is going through the same stage, as the H.G.S. is trying to put together a competitive team for next year. Our junior and senior rugby teams are c oached by Mr. Williams who has done a fine job in elevating the standards. His expertise should make H.G.S. a rugby powerhouse. The assistance of Mr. Clive Jones (a graduate of H.G.S.) is greatly appreciated. I would like to thank all the teachers who donated their valuable time to coaching and making this a most successful sports year for all. Ronald L. Naud The Royals Report Royals began their winning ways this season with a dynamic victory in the years first major house event, the cross country run. This trend continued into the first term which was highlighted by a 8-0 win over Glooscap in soccer. Overall, the Royals managed a strong second in total points for the first term, indeed a fine accomplishment. And yet the house members saw that they could do better, and in the second term, they set out with a powerful determination to achieve, exemplified in a 14-3 vic- tory over Acadia in junior soccer baseball. Since this attitude prevailed throughout the second term we should fare very well once the second term points are totalled. In all I was most impressed by the attitude of all Royals; both when winning and losing showing a fine degree of sportsmanship. All in all, a banner year for the Royals. Phil Hunt House Captain This page sponsored by Mr. and Mrs. A. MacLeod Acadia ' s Report This year has been a good year for Acadia and as house captain I have enjoyed it. Even though we may not be first, we still have done well. In the fall cross-country we place second, third, and fourth, respec- tively, and hope to do better in the spring. Intramurals have been quite successful and we won the junior division first term. Our Reach for the Top had some success and was able to put two members on the school team. Intermediate Reach for the Top was even more successful in second term and won all of its games. Again in second term our junior division came first. Our junior division, as far as I can see, is the best in the league under Erik Davis, The intermediate division wasn ' t quite as suc- cessful, but it still did quite well under David Crick and Alex Pugsley. Last but not least is the senior division which may not have won any- thing but played hard and worked hard and I feel that the team as a whole has done quite well so far this year. We shall see the final results as there is still the third term with the track meet and cross-country run to come. Martin Sullivan, House Captain This page sponsored by Dr. and Mrs. R. Sinclair Glooscap Report Throughout the year it has been rewarding to work with Glooscap. We have had our share of success all round, and especially in athletics, but there has also been a great deal of cordial warmth generated and a hearty team spirit. Ricky Buhr and I want to thank all who strove so well and turned our initial good intentions into a cohesive effort. We believe that the inter-house system has borne fruit this year in encouraging the par- ticipation of all and, generally raising standards. Glooscap has already profited from meets of various kinds and plans to give of its best in the spring, where we want to renew our first placing in the cross-country and in track and field. Jerome Lawler This page sponsored by Mr. and Mrs. R. Buell Senior Boy ' s Basketball The basketball team suffered a disappointingly short and inactive season this year. Due to a breakdown in communications between our coach Mr. Curtis and league officials. We were not allowed to enter the league, and as such, were continually in want of teams against whom we might play. In our first contest our inexperience showed up (only three players had played before) as we lost to Kings Edgehill school in our own gym. Our second game was against Beth Israel Synagogue whom we beat. Our final game of the year was the qualifying contest of the Pro- vincial C basketball championship. We were to play Kings Edgehill again, this time at their gym. The first few minutes of the game started off poorly and the rest was all downhill as nothing seemed to click. Practically the whole team will be here next year however with a bit more competition and determination we shall be able to make Mr. Curtis ' devo- tion and hard work well worth the effort.

Several girls from grades 10 and 11 along with a few girls from various other grades all practise together on Thursday afternoons. Under the supervision of Mr. Curtis we try to improve such skills as dribbling, shooting and passing. Quite often we ' ll have a small scrimmage amongst ourselves. In the near future we plan to have a few exhibition games against other schools. Perhaps with a bit more improvement , we will be able to compete in the city league next year. Junior Boys Basketball has also utilized the Thursday afternoon time slot, alternating practices with the girls. With encouragement, this aspect of boys basketball will develop a good base for the senior team in the future. Kim Martin and Lori Burgess Front Row: E. Wallace, P. Kundzins, A. Fillmore, R.

There was a new en- thusiam from the middle school and participation reached a peak. As a result B girl ' s volleyball for grades 7-9 was organized by Mr. Naud who was helped in his teaching by the A team. The volleyball team played a fine season, under the dedicated coach- ing of Mr. Naud. Although he couldn ' t get the team into a league, we tried to play at least one game per week. These games throughout the fall acted as a preparation for the C provincial volleyball tournament which was held in December. Against tough competition it managed to get into the finals but had to settle for runner-up. An exhibition tournament was held in Windsor in early February, and our team had to settle once more for runner-up. All the girls wish to thank Mr. Naud for his devotion in not only coaching but also trying to arrange games. Although the size of our school puts us at a disadvantage when playing competitively we never fail to enjoy ourselves and always keep this thought in our minds: One person with a belief is equal to the force of 99 who have only interest.

Ozere BOY ' S VOLLEYBALL TEAM The boys team was organized several years ago, but this year was the first time it really got together and learned something. Starting the sea- son off with a loss in a tournament at Sackville, the team then began to practice seriously, and soon became quite formidable. We have played several tournaments against Graham Creighton and have done quite well in most of them; winning two, losing one and tying the other. All in all, the season was a good one. We have learned a lot through the games we have played and hopefully next year we will be able to get into a city volleyball league. Rick Buhr This page sponsored by Dr. and Mrs. A.

Rugby is a hard game and it in- volves a lot of physical contact. You do not wear pads, just shorts, a shirt, and something on your feet. This makes the game sound simple and rough, but when played to the rules, rugby is complex. This is the first year we have had a team to mention. We practise either once a week or once every two weeks, but as soon as the snow and ice have disappeared, the team will be out on the field-rain or shine! We all enjoy it and we are backed by a very enthusiastic and hard working coach, Mr. Williams. We look forward to our games against other teams in the near future.

Only though hard work and great determina- tion did this year ' s team manage to beat Graham Creighton who had finished in first place before the finals. In a best two out of three ser- ies, H.G.S. won the first game 4-1 while losing the second game to Gra- ham Creighton by the same score. The stage was set for the final match at Graham Creighton in which H.G.S. won 3-1. This was perhaps their finest game all season. In the semi-final match, Manoj Vohra who had seen limited action all season scored with five minutes remaining in the game to beat Sackville High and put H.G.S. in the finals. Though not as talent laden a team as last year our spirit and cohesion at the right time enabled H.G.S. to repeat as champions. Mr. Naud This page sponsored by Dr. and Mrs. S.

The turn-out is formidable and no doubt, if you were to visit the gym between 3:30 and 5:00 on a Friday afternoon, you would see the courts full and people waiting on the sidelines for their turn. We have not put out a bad- minton team, the main aim of the programme being to give everyone the chance to play badminton and have fun. There are a lot of avid young supporters, however, who will comprise a good team in the future. Tilly Pillay This page sponsored by Dr. and Mrs. C. You This page sponsored by Professor and Mrs. N.

Clark 75 This page sponsored by Mrs. Shirley Goodfellow Chess The chess club this year has drawn its main support from the prep school. Twice a week the AVR floor becomes an obstacle course com- posed of avid lunch time generals. The games of these young players are characterized by their exhuberance and daring. In the heat of battle one might see a rampant rook scoot diagonally across the board, scatter a line of pawns like bowling pins and strike down an unwary king, (who will doubtless be resurrected in a few moves.) It often seems a shame to quell these outbreaks of inspired strategy by the imposition of conven- tional rules. Actually the level of play is quite high among the regular players. This is due in part to the generous help given by certain mem- bers of the middle school in coaching the novices. It is not unheard of, though, that a pint- size Wellington brings one of these heedless Napo- leans to his Waterloo. This page sponsored by Mr. and Mrs. R. Dawson Fencing On the Floor: E. Wallace, M.

Murphy, T. Norvell, R. Sinclair, J. Embil, R. Vethamany There are now about 20 active members of the fencing club, and the standard of fencing has improved greatly over the past year. Luke Murphy, Ranald Sinclair and I, all entered this year ' s Lieutenant Governor ' s Challenge, an annually held tournament. Luke came in fifth in the com- petition, reaching the finals. In accomplishing this he earned a trip to Ottawa to compete in another tournament, representing Nova Scotia. Early in the year, the parent activities committee gave the club four hundred dollars. All of this money was put to good use, buying much needed equipment. The fencing club also held a sale at the Eaton s shop- ping mall in January in which a good deal of money was raised. The members of our club would like to thank Mrs. Scobbie, our coach, who gives much of her time to helping the fencers improve their skill. Robbie Sinclair This page sponsored by Dr. and Mrs. D.

Provincial Debating Association has organized more work- shops and tournaments than ever this year, most of which have been and will be attended by several Grammar School representatives. These events include a provincial workshop held in November at Halifax West High School, a French workshop to be held in Moncton in February, as well as the annual provincial tournament in Mid February, Jennifer Szerb of U6, Tova Sherman of U4 and Karen Martin of U5 will represent us at the latter competition, the winners of which will go to Quebec in May for the national championships. There are several students in lower grades who are showing enthusi- asm in debating this year. We are glad for their interest as they will doubtless be excellent replacements for graduating debaters in the next year. We are also grateful to Mrs, Ottman, who has willingly stepped in as co-ordinater of the debating club and coach of the debating team. Debating has been a source of enjoyment for many of our students and as members of the debating, we hope that the Grammar School will con- tinue to uphold its longstanding debating tradition.

The team was comprised of Meg Hel- leiner and Martin Sullivan from Upper Six, Robert Dawson from Upper Five, and Peter Aterman from Upper Four. Unfortunately, the H.G.S. team only had the opportunity to play two games. In the first, they defeated the Prince Andrew High team by a narrow score. But, in the second game against Cobequid Educational Centre, we lost by a score of 680 to 450. Perhaps next year we ' ll have more luck! Norma Guy This page sponsored by Mr. and Mrs. J. Connors Librarian s Report LIBRARIANS A. Lawler, J. Webster, Mrs. Scobbie, J. Welch Ever since the addition of the upper school library several years ago, the number of books, both fictional and non- fictional, as well as magazines and encyclopedii have been greatly increased. Mrs. Scobbie, our head librarian is always on the lookout for new ideas and ways to add to our collection. As Mrs. Scobbie and many of the upper school staff are the librarians during school hours, students are only on duty during the lunch break. As the library is used by both the prep and upper school during this time period it can easily become chaotic and very noisy. But the privileges of the library are not often abused and the student librari- ans (in between collecting fines, checking books in and out and throwing out the gum chewers) can sometimes squeeze in the occasional bit of homework.

This year, with the directorship of Mr. Johnstone, we produced Oscar Wilde ' s play The Importance of Being Earnest . The nine actors onstage were supported by nine equally essential persons backstage. The Society began its collaboration on the play early this year. Although the play had its inevitable trails and hardships in its formulative months the actors and crew enjoyed themselves, hopefully as much as the audience did. Lastly, of course, many thanks are due to Mr. Johnstone, whose guidance was invaluable. Christopher Algernon Webster Student Council Report Front Row: Mr. Montgomery, P. Hunt, H. Conter, P. Aterman Back Row: D. Holden, N. Guy, L. Fox, C. Mingo, D. Linton This year ' s Student Council found itself as busy as any Council before it, directing its energies into a variety of enterprises designed to improve the social life of the students and raise money for future activities. The Council placed more emphasis on activities concerning the lower school than ever before, and prep students responded enthusiastically by making both the chocolate bar sale and the Winter Carnival tremendous successes. As usual, events such as the slave auction, sports, the Friday night gym programme, and class trips were all aided or run by the Council. The main problem facing us this year was the question of dances. While the Council wanted to have dances it did not wish to have the trouble which accompanies them. The suggestion of a Drop-In was put forward and, upon implementation, found to be a satisfactory substitute. This did not, however, entirely rule out the possibility of having dances and a few are scheduled to taKe place. We cannot adequately thank the chaperones who freely gave their time. All in all, the Council was a productive one, complemented by Mr. Montgomery ' s acute sense of leader- ship and good judgement. Hopefully next year ' s will be equally as successful.
