Hillcrest High School - Impact Yearbook (Ottawa, Ontario Canada)

Page 22 text:

RUTH COTTON Every now and again Ruth pops up with her opinion in class, sometimes giving Mr. Seasons a near hemorrhage ! ! Despite her quiet nature, Ruth is well liked by all who know her. Teacher ' s College is her main hope for the future and we hope she makes it. CHERYL CUMPSON ' ' April prepares her green traffic light and the world thinks --Go! ' ' Another failure for the I.S.L. We couldn ' t find anything out about her except that she goes to Hillcrest. This girl sometimes supports her class in Interform Sports such as volleyball and basketball . Next year she plans to attend Ottawa Teacher ' s College. DOUGLAS .ALLEN DARLING ' ' What ' s the use? Yesterday an egg, tomorrow a feather duster. ' Doug holds the awesome position of literary editor of the yearbook. He is very opinion- ated about the running of this school and the grad report writers(?) Apart from being very cynical he dabbles a bit in the art of poetry and ' skiing water ' (?) in the summer. Carleton University, Europe or Broadcasting School in Boston are Doug ' s poss- ibilities next year. LYNDA DARLENE DAVIS ' Romance has been eloquent- ly defined as the off- spring of fiction and love. Lynda has been known for her quiet withdrawn nature but sometimes we wonder if this is just an inner state of confusion. Lynda is a member of the Hillcrest division of the Fortune Snow- Bunnies. By hook or by ski- pole she will get into O.T.C. next year. JANE MARGERY DAVISON ' ' I always get the better when I argue alone. ' ' Janey is the strong silent type-- strong on the brains and silent in the class. The former is amply demonstrated by her participation this year in the Latin Club, and her five year membership in the Over-80 Club. Far from being an academic fiend, however, Jane enjoys inter- form basketball, volleyball, baseball and also is a foot- ball and hockey enthusiast. Next year, Jane will continue studying languages at Carleton. TOM DEMPSEY ' ' Woman was not made from man ' s rib but from his funny bone. ' ' Just take one look at this guy ' s picture and you can tell that he rates high with the opposite sex. Besides leaving the girls in a pile of melted butter, Tom excels in the virile sport of football. This year, however, he is dedicating the majority of his time to studying for his senior matriculation. Next year Tom will leave us to work even harder towards a university degree. RONALD EDWARD DIMOCK ' ' Pong, Ping, Pong, Ping-- the sound of a ping pong ball bouncing backwards. ' ' Despite his last name ' Ronald the Red ' is far from dull. His best subjects being Math (A B), Physics and Chemistry. His more cultural pursuits include selling Christmas cards and gifts, taping telephone conversations and laughing at the re- sults, playing the guitar (he tries hard) and list- ening to ' KB ' ' till all hours of the morning. Soccer, curling, and table tennis ' fill in his spare moments. He says next year is open for suggestions and we suggest Maths and Science at some lucky university. JUDITH ANN DEACON ' Bhe looked at him as if he was a side dish she hadn ' t ordered. ' ' Happiness personified ' des- cribes Judy. She always has a ready smile for everyone and seems to enjoy life to the fullest. Last year she was a member of our Prefects who benefit the school so much. Curling and water- skiing are Judy ' s main passions. A teaching pro- fession suits this girl perfectly so OTC is her next stop. RONALD DICK ' ' It was so quiet in the room- you could hear a PUN drop! ! ' ' Ronnie can usually be found waiting at the locker of a certain girl. When he ' s not there he is pursuing his artistic endeavours in the Art room. Next year will find him at R.M.C. in Kingston for an intellect- ual course in chemical engineering. SANDY DOLAN Eggs and promises are easily broken. ' ' Sandy is back this year to bring up her average for the entrance to Carleton next fall. Last year she added greatly to many of our ath- letic programmes here at Hillcrest. She was a mem- ber of the basketball team for two years as well as being on the swim team. Next year she ' s going to Carleton.

PAT BURTON ' ' Homework is the extract of all suffering. ' ' Here ' s a girl blessed with plain reason and common sense, not to mention her good looks. Pat is sure to get through grade thirteen in one piece leading her on to some lucky university. Good luck! GUY CADIEUX ' ' A good many things go around in the dark besides Santa Claus. ' ' Guy is an import this year from Ottawa U. H. S. He tells us that he hasn ' t any act- ivities but we know diff- erent! Good ol ' Guy has .... uh! well, grown longer side- burns (whew! we though of something) ! Rumour has it he ' s been offered a univer- sity scholarship for con- tinued studies in sideburn growing. DOUGLAS CATES ' ' In examinations, the foolish ask questions that the wise can ' t answer. ' ' Doug is a member of the motor- cycle crew and can usually be seen leading the pack down Pleasant Park Road with the rest of the Angels. When off the bike he participates in soccer (last year). Instead of leading, he is following the lead to Carleton next year. BRIAN WILLIAM CHRISTENSEN ' ' I am always at a loss to know how much to believe of my own stories. ' ' Brian must have trouble ans- wering the questions on the grad report sheets since he refused to tell us anything of his private life. ' All Sports ' was the extent of his activ- ities so that ' s all we can say about him. University seems to be his ultimate goal and we wish him the best of luck. MAUREEN CONNELLY ' ' Don ' t ever prophesy- unless you know. ' ' Maureen is one of the few people at Hillcrest who belongs to International House and who participates in the experiment: International Living. Besides improving continental relations, she dabbles in dancing, swim- ming and skiing. To become a permanent ambassador of good will, she is heading for Carleton to study, major- ing in English and Spanish. BEVERLY BURTWELL ' Youth would rather be stimulated than instructed. ' ' What does it feel like to travel something like twenty miles everyday to the hallowed halls of Hillcrest High? Ask Bev, she does it all the time. When she ' s not on the bus — swimming and horseback riding relieve the tension of her grade 13 studies. She feels an inclination to- wards the younger generation so next year will find Bev at O.T.C. ROBERT CARSWELL ' ' In composing, as a general rule, run your pen through every other word you have written; you have no idea what vigor it will give your style. ' ' Bob, an outstanding express- ionist in a hackneyed style is one of our older hangers- on at Hillcrest this year. Establishing a new breed of humanity Bob delights in talking only of his immed- iate world — his car. Bob is aspiring to try a year of post graduate work here at Hillcrest. DAVE CHARMAN Dave can usually be found wandering the halls looking for his classes! We know that this boy wears glasses goes to Hillcrest, (we also assume he ' s been here for a few years), is in grade thirteen, and sometimes supports school activities. Next year he ' s off to face the world and further his education. C AND ICE CLARK ' ' When you flee temptation, be sure you don ' t leave a for- warding address. ' ' Candy is well named because she is a sweet kid (so her mother says!) She is also a busy one as she adds swimming; basket- ball and reading to the al- ready heavy burden of grade 13. Weekends find her working at Billings Bridge with the help of Ronnie. Future plans for teaching and her B. A. belong to Candy. MARG COOK Oh had our simple EVE seen through the make believe. ' ' Marg can usually be found in the Dance Committee room worry- ing and fussing about upcoming dances. When she isn ' t covered with paint or designing decor- ations, she plans her future which include studying for her degree.

DAVE DRINKWATER Dave ' s long hair is only ex- ceeded by the waves in his head. While in Boston Dave was educated more so than he has ever been at school. . . ??? He appears to be an introvert, quiet and unassuming, but we wonder if this is just a facade. His future is undecided. BONNIE KAY DUGDALE ' ' Compared to the city, the country looks like the world without its clothes on. ' ' Bonnie is one of those people who faces life with an optimistic attitude even when things look pretty black (and things do get pretty black around here some- times!) She also throws very good class parties. Bonnie prides her- self in travelling twenty miles to school each day. Next year ' s plans include an encore here at Hill- crest to complete her grade thir- teen. JULIETTE DEPUIS Juliette is Claire ' s accomplice in trying to drive Mr. Dillabough out of his mind. Apart from this she participates in interfonn sports on her days off. Next year we will wrap Julie up and send her to some unknown campus. JOAN EDWARDS ' ' I am a believer in punctuality though it makes me very lonely. Joan has spent all her high school days here at Hillcrest. Her main activities are attempt- ing to pass her French and her Math, and collecting liquor bottles, (empty she assures us). She would (eventually) like to study Architecture or Interior De sign. BOB EDWARDS ' ' Mortals arise and congratulate yourselves, that so great a man is living for the Glory of the human race. Here ' s another walking the- saurus who prides himself in knowing practically every detail of history from the year ' dot ' up to the year 5073 (well, practically). A history course at Carleton suits Bob perfectly and we all hope he is successful. ERIC EVANS For most of this year Eric was incapacitated due to the fact that he fell off his Yamaha 80 near London. Nevertheless, Eric, with his intestinal fortitude, strove to make the Hillcrest cross-country team. He is another of our undet- ermined statistics but we wish him success in whatever he endeavours to endeavour to endeavour. CATHY EVANS ' ' The reason some people are lost in thought, is because it ' s un- familiar territory. For five years Cathy has fre- quented Hillcrest. Amongst her activities have been such things as Drama, Debating, Reach For the Top team, President of the G.A.A., Yearbook and the ' ' over-eighty ' ' club. Cathy plans to take this impressive list of actions to Queen ' s next year for a Psychology course. MARY SUSAN FELL ' Even the youngest among us is infallible. ' ' Sue has left us but during her stay here everyone was aware of her presence. She was a member of the Art and UN Club and was active in the GAA. Plans for next year include either Mackinac College in Michigan or Queen ' s U. in Kingston. Best of luck, Sue, wherever you are! LYNNE FERGUSON ' ' An optimist is a girl who mis- takes a bulge for a curve. Lynne is one of the more talented members of the school. As well as teaching piano she is a pianist for Hillcrest ' s Saturday Morning Ballet Classes, (such patience). She tells us that her only hobbies are reading (I wonder). We are sure that Lynne will be most successful in her plans to study at the Toronto Conservatory of Music. ELDON FINDLAY Despite his efforts to try to prevent us from putting his pic- ture in the yearbook, we finally cornered him and he had to either relent or be drawn and quartered. Hope there ' s no hard feelings Eldon!!! This is hardly likely since his friendly and congenial personality would not allow such degeneration. A successful future surely is in store for this guy.
