The Editor ' s Message Over the years the Grammarian has been an ingrained part of life at H.G.S., but nevertheless a certain lack of enthusiam was becoming apparent in some quarters. In the past Grammarian photographers have been bombarded with orange peels and rude noises as they entered classrooms to immortalize typical H.G.S. students. The Grammarian Literary Contest had become a farce in some categories, especially in Upper I-III. In an effort to broaden student involvement in the yearbook, this year we launched a P.R. campaign. In Upper I-III we appointed Literary Representatives charged with convincing their classmates that they should enter the contest. Numerous posters were hung and unbeknownst to most of you a subliminal advertising programme was launched. The campaign seems to have worked, as evidenced by our expanded Literary Section. This year the Grammarian staff and the printers have worked out a new scheme in an effort to give the staff more control over the actual layout of each page in the book. This necessitates the staff taking over the time-consuming job of doing the paste-ups . Next year the Grammarian staff will probably be expanded to accommodate this extra work. The Grammarian is the result of hard work and determination on the part of the Grammarian staff and many other individuals. Special thanks are due to Peter Dawson, Dr. Brownlow, Mr. Montgomery and Miss Silver.
