ANNE MARIE FEETHAM Lookin ' for fun and feelin ' groovey — Simon and Garfunkel Anne is renowned for her unique disposition and extra-ordinary happiness. She frequently can be found lounging in the Art Room with a brightly coloured scarf tied around her head, dispensing advice about microwave ovens, to which she is addicted. Her ample artistic and philosophical talents illustrate her fine appreciation of the abstract realm. Although it often seems that Anne was born a decade too late, her decision to pursue journalism at King ' s College next year shows that she is firmly tied to the here and now. ROBERT GALE He remains a fool his whole life long, Who loves not women, wine and song. —Martin Luther Rob has been at the Grammar School for four years, and plans to go on to the University of Toronto this fall. Being one of our class ' s athletes, he can almost always be seen representing one of the school ' s sports teams, whether it be soccer, volleyball, or basketball. In the summer, Rob is an avid sailor, and in winter an excellent downhill skier; he was a member of the Nova Scotia ski team in this year ' s Canada Winter Games in Manitoba. When he ' s not in- volved in the afore-mentioned sports, Rob says his favorite pastime is girls. Rob was an integral part of our class this year, frequently boosting morale when the workload was heavy. We ' re sure that he will be a success in what- ever profession he chooses. HILARY JOCELYN GROVER Go forth and multiply — Genesis 1:28 Hilary has been a member of the Grammar School for seven years. During the time she has been here she has become actively involved in the school, partici- pating in volleyball, basketball, badminton, and drama, as well as being treasurer of the Student Council. She was also the captain of the large Glooscap intramurals team and often assumed secretarial duties at lunch times. She has a number of hobbies, these being Volley- ball, Music, Queen ' s and four-letter words... Jeff. Next year she is planning to attend Queen ' s University in Ontario. There she will continue her education in math and the sciences. In the distant future she also plans to be the mother of a large family. 12

LORI BURGESS Age cannot wither her, nor custom stale her infinite variety... —Shakespeare; Antony and Cleopatra Walking by the Upper Six homeroom, one is bound to hear bubbly laughter, emanating from none other than Lori. Her constant smUe and cheeriness make her popular not only in her class, but throughout the school. Lori has been with us for five years. In that time she has always maintained high marks while actively participating in many extra-curricular activities. She was captain of Royals this year, co-captain of the girl ' s volleyball team, and co-runner of the badminton club. She has also worked hard in the Drama Society. Lori plans to take up pre-med next year and then to become a doctor. GREG GROSSMAN Money alone sets the whole world in motion. — PublUius Syrus Among Greg ' s ambitions are to be independently wealthy (or more than independently) and to own a Mercedes Benz 450SEL with power windows. With his intense love of lucre in all manifestations, which exceeds mere greed to approach pure philosophy, he couples a reflective cast of mind. Greg also enjoys skiing and travel, and is the hands-down winner as best dressed man in Upper Six. Though he is a proficient student, especially in his favorite subjects of Biology, English, and History, he has not yet decided where or by what means he will make his millions. We are sure, however, that he will succeed. ARTHUR R. T. (Tom) DICKEY Tom, don ' t repeat the question!!! Mr. C. Curtis Tom ' s vibrant personality, inquisitive, creative intellect and rather obnoxious sense of humour have enlivened our class since Prep Four. His talent for the dramatic has won him major roles in the productions of the Drama Society, including The Importance of Being Ernest and this year ' s Arsenic and Old Lace . Tom has also debated avidly and been a patient librarian. Tom intends to begin a science degree next year, although he is not sure where. Whatever he does, we wish him the best of luck. 11

DAVID GRAHAM HARRIS He who loves not his country can love nothing — —Lord Byron David has a salient reputation as a motorcyclist and is reportedly the victim of occasional attacks of cycle-fever . He is also skillful at many sports, especially racquetball and hockey. With his inquisitive, tenacious intellect he figures prominently in class discussions; he holds firm opinions and principles on a variety of subjects and can defend them convincingly. His patriotism is not merely philosophical but active: he has joined the Armed Forces Reserve. David intends to pursue a degpree in commerce at Dalhousie next year, in preparation for law school. We are sure that his determination will carry him through his every endeavour, and we wish him all the best. DAVID HAYWARD LINTON To err is human, to dunk is divine. — J. Erving Having always been kidded about his lack of height, Dave has overcome this to become a first class basketball player. As captain of the senior team, his leadership and phenomenal scoring ability have been invaluable. Excelling also in soccer and volleyball, Dave has been uncommonly active in our Intramural Program, devoting much of his time and energy to being as- sistant House Captain of Royals. When not practicing his foul shots, Dave can be found strolling confidently through the halls or in the library in his sometime capacity of scholar. Next year Dave will hit the court and the books at Mount Allison University, where he plans to dazzle ' em with his dribble and to study sciences. DANNY HUI Peace makes plenty. — Fifteenth Century Proverb Danny is the only new student this year in Upper Six, yet he has shown that, with dedication, one can enter our school later than Grade Ten and still succeed. Danny does well in maths and the sciences and for someone working in a second language is doing admirably. Danny has also done well in the area of sports, being an accomplished volleyball player and swimmer. After graduating Danny plans to attend Dal- housie where he will study commerce. Danny hopes to become an accountant and then return to his native Hong Kong. Danny ' s class is positive that he will succeed in his desires and all wish him the success that his demeanor and study habits demonstrate he merits. 13
