LAURA MARGARET ALLEN A light heart lives on. — Shakespeare The Grammar School has known Laura ' s pretty smile and equable person- ality for three years. Her cheerfulness has been indispensable in maintaining class morale, and she brings a refreshing quality to her duties as an assistant secretary. Her many interests include basketball, swimming, tennis, and track sports; and she has a tenacity in mathematics which has been frequently useful to her classmates. Laura plans to study mathematics and biology, and has not yet selected a university. JOSE AQUINO To work and back to bed again. — John Masefield If anyone in the school is likely to latch suddenly onto your scarf, half strangle you, then bound off down the hall in imitation of a demented chimp, it is Jose. Despite his use of crazy fits and an obnoxious sense of humour to release his excess energy, Jose is a considerate, likeable fellow, and possesses a keen intellect. He will claim that he does only as much thinking as necessary to his subsistence on earth, yet he has a high average, which should see him into the Faculty of Medicine at Dal next year. His sensitivity, intelligence and energy all combine in his performances on the violin and piano, for which he has won many awards at the Kiwanis Festival. In his early years at H.G.S. Jose has been the Editor of The Grammarian, Vice-President of the Students ' Council and has proved that size is not nearly as im- portant as sheer effrontery in the making of a top-notch soccer player. JENNIFER KRISTINE BADLEY The supreme happiness of life is the conviction that we are loved. — Victor Hugo Jennifer has done very well during her ten years at the school. Two years on the Honour Roll and a fine debating record are nothing to scoff at. But she also has been a member of the Students ' Council for two years, and was last year the Grammarian ' s business manager. She sometimes leaves the lunch-tim e socializing and entertainment of her friends to be an assistant secretary. When not serving the school or enjoying music, cross-country skiing, sailing £ind dance, Jen can be found grinning and bearing it at her part-time job. Her plentiful humour and charisma, and surprising turns-of-phrase ( heavy thighs ) will be to her advantage as she studies for a B.A. in English at the Uni- versity of Toronto. — 11 —

ALICE DEBORAH BERESFORD-GREEN haven ' t been abroad in so long that I almost speak English without an accent. — Robert Charles Benchley For four years Debbie has graced the class with her unerring wit, and graced the school with her helpfulness. She is one of those few who should be made an hon- orary Students ' Council member, for she helps with the setting-up, the running, and sometimes even the cleaning-up for most Council events. She has also been a member of the Grammarian ' s business staff and an assistant-secretary. Her interests outside the school include figure skating (at least five hours a week), sailing, canoeing and raquet sports. Debbie is determined to begin a Bachelor of Sciences degree next year. Her certain dignity and purposefulness will be assets to her in the pursuit of an il- lustrious career in dentistry. JONATHAN S. BLANCHARD He that will make good use of any part of his life must allow a large part of it to recreation. — Locke Jonathan is one of two students in this year ' s graduating class who has spent a full twelve years at the school. During this time, he has rarely failed to find ways of enjoying himself or expressing his athletic personaltiy. Jon ' s basic attitude is to commit himself only to those things that really interest him; in extra-curricular matters, these have been the volleyball and soccer teams, the Students ' Council, as well as skiing and sailing. Jon has also knocked off numerous track and field records when at the top of his form; and his astoundingly broad range of general knowledge earned him a place on the Reach for the Top team. The resources of Jon ' s energy and humour should make him a welcome addition to the Engineering faculty at Dal. KEVIN REGINALD CRICK have never let my schooling interfere with my education. — Mark Twain Since his first day at H. G. S. in Grade Five, his flamboy ancy and the readiness with which he relates a new joke or story or adventure have made Kevin a popular member of the class. He has managed successfully to balance a part-time job and an active social life while maintaining a good average. He has lent his capable hands in the service of the school as Students ' Council secretary a few years ago, and as disc- jockey at our drop-ins. Despite the urging of his friends, Kevin has never joined any sports team, though he very much enjoys a good game of volleyball or basketball, and is an outstanding hockey player in Halifax leagues. Kevin will probably enter Dal next year, where we know he will continue to make good friends and, as Mark Twain said, never let his schooling interfere with his education, or his good times. — 12 —
