LINDA JANE PEERS ' Laugh and the world laughs with you. E. Wilcox Though only her third year at H.G.S., Linda has made a lasting impression, not only on our class, but on the entire school as well. Her many interests extend outside the school, and include such things as horseback riding, playing tennis, swimming, volunteer work at the LW.K. Hospital for Children, chauffering and hmm. . . , not bad — guy-gazing. Closer to school, along with her hard and determined work at her subjects, Linda has also partici- pated actively in both the senior girl ' s basketball (what a shot! Swish!) and volleyball teams. She was co-editor of the school newspaper (for its duration), business editor of the yearbood (she plans to pursue a business career), generously contributed some of her lunch hour to help as an assistant secretary, and continued her involvement in hmm. . ., not bad - guy- gazing. A lover of guys, gossip and music of all kinds, Linda has kept our class alive and rolling with her infectious laughter, and we wish her the best of luck in the future, in setting the world rocking. ROBIN SHARMA ' ' Life is so short and the craft so long to learn. Hypocrates Robin came to the Grammar School this year and added much life to the class. We should all be grateful to this fearless commander who has repeatedly saved the world from deadly alien attacks. He plays basketball, coaches the basketball team, waterskiis, skis, crashes cars, crashes cars, and is expert at the two very dangerous sports of parachuting and, of course, missile command. He takes advantage of the restful atmosphere in English class to sleep off late night parties. His future plans are to have fewer (or better) car accidents, and a vague idea about going to Dalhousie for science, and later law or medicine. ROBERT SINCLAIR ' ' Speak softly and carry a big stick. Theo Roosevelt Rob has been attending our school since grade 1. Throughout these years he has become a most valuable athlete. His fencing skills are well established, he went to the Canada Games in 1979. He has been valuable to the basketball and volleyball teams and was the mainstay of our prodigious soccer team. His stable nature has been a source of reassurance to many students. Rob has the awesome ability to stay calm in the face of even the heaviest work loads. He has a quiet confidence, knowing that he will start, and finish his work the night before the assignment is due; sacrificing even his hours of sleep. His life outside the school is equally impressive. Rob has been very hospitable to the students of Upper Six, permitting the use of his home when the class can find nowhere else. He enjoys whatever he does and captures the true party spirits when they arc most necessary. Rob ' s future interests include IVIcGill University and Montreal. He is heading for an executive ' s position. Robby will be missed by the school, even as the blind man misses his glasses! 18

CATHERINE LAURA LAZIER ' ' So have striven, to have made an effort, to have been true to certain ideals, this alone is worth the struggle. Sir William Osier Kate is an individual . This is how she was first explained to me by a classmate. In her own search for whatever it is that comes from experience she has found herself with a list of accomplishments spanning a broad field of interests. In school, her work has always placed her near the top of the class, she has been both editor of the Grammarian and chief photographer, and has also been a member of the debating team that went to Montreal and a member of model Parliament. In the gym, she ' s an invaluable part of the basketball team and the volleyball team. But that ' s not all! She also has a flair for more artistic endeavours such as pottery, mime and plunking on the piano. At first appearance, Kate ' s outlook on life seems dead-serious, but fortunately she does suffer from more than occasional relapses into the absurd, such as during her slightly over-enthusiastic impression of a soldier in the Upper VI Liberation Army I have no doubt that with rnis talent for the dramatic, Kate ' s seriousness will never get the best of her. ALASTAIR IAIN MacLEOD ' ' Freedom of choice is a hell of a burden. Maybe living for kicks is wise. ' ' Murray Head In Iain ' s 9 years at the school, he has established himself as an outstanding (or overshadowing) athlete. Because of his height, he is a valuable center in basketball, blocker and spiker in volleyball and goalie in soccer. His love of life is tennis (and a certain ball-girl), and during the summer months, on can inevitably find him rallying his heart out on the south end courts. Walking down the halls of H.G.S. one can see an unshaven, baggy-eyed Iain, smiUng despite having completed an all-night history essay. As Sir Jonathon Falstaff, Iain put his unshaven, baggy-eyed wit to good use. Iain ' s role in Shakespeare ' s King Henry IV, Part I, allows no one to dispute his acting skills which he used in a variety of roles. Iain presently has no future plans, yet we are sure he will be happy and do well with whatever he chooses to do. lot the toes. GARYNG ' ' The pleasures of life come through the mind not i Anonymous Gary was one of the new entries in our class this year. He has shown that he is capable of withstanding the work load. Gary is mathematically oriented, proven to us i n Algebra and Calculus. Even though just learning English, he follows well the flow of our courses and always finds ways to express himself. He is always bright and happy, there are none who could dislike him. Gary lives bravely by himself in Halifax, while his family rests in Hong Kong. Gary enjoys sports, particularly basketball and has shown his interest in chess. He has adapted well to our climate and slower life style. Gary plans to return to Hong Kong after the school year where he will pursue a career in business. We wish him the best of luck. 17
