DAVID THOMSON: ' ' Don ' t prophesy- -unless you know. ' Dave is really sold on athletics. He enjoys soccer, skiing, curling, golfing and other outdoor sports. A member of last year ' s Geography Club and Concert Committee, Dave collects stamps and coins, and finds time to travel in his spare time (if he has any). Dave ' s varied interests will take him to Carleton next year. KATHLEEN TUNDE TOTH: During five years Kathy has had some remarkable experiences for a Hillcrestienne. She was a part of the Drama Club and the Choir. Kathy has further demonstrated her musical talent as a folk-singing enthusiast. Next year Kathy hopes to continue her studies at U. of T. as an English major. SHAUN TOLSON: ' ' An Irishman can be worried by the consciousness of the fact that there is nothing to worry about. ' ' Shaun has been here for six years and during that time he has made himself known in many ways. He was on the Yearbook Staff for two years and has participated in all inter- form sports. Next year he will leave us to join the ranks of the Armed Forces. FRANCIS TUCKER: ' ' Fools rush in and get the best seats. ' ' Hold it kids!! We ' ve got a winner here!! This girl must be about the only student in the school with her glider pilot ' s licence. Apart from these cel- estial flings she dabbles a bit in interform sports, with swim- ming and horseback riding tak- ing up the majority of her spare time. Toronto University will find Francis roaming its halls next year. DONALD ALLAN URSU: ' ' If you tell the truth you don ' t have to remember anything. ' ' Playing soccer, running on Hill- crest ' s cross-country team and supporting some interform sports have all been a part of Don ' s athletic endeavours. In other activities he plays hockey and attends Student Council meet- ings. Don hasn ' t yet decided what his plans are for next year but, via the grapevine, his marks are good enough for wherever he intends to go (he has been an over eighty sc holar several times. ) MARIANNA VAN DE LAGEMAAT: ' ' I would if I could, but I can ' t so I shan ' t. ' ' This girl is very seldom seen in the midst of a loud discussion since she tends toward the quiet and reserved. She does not participate in school activ- ities therefore allowing herself to be devoted entirely to her studies. Marianna is undecided as to her plans for the future. CATHERINE MARY VANSICKLE: ' ' Poets utter great and wise things which they do not them- selves understand. ' ' Another VanSickles with musical talent though no relation to Bill, Cathy is .a member in soprano standing, of the choir, and a beginner in guitar (self- taught yet!!1. Her beaming personality will be a great asset to the medical profession as she plans to study nursing science at Ottawa. GARY VEILLETTE: ' ' Ordinarily he was insane but he had lucid moments when he was mere- ly stupid. ' ' As one of the older members of the Graduating Class, Gary contributes a great deal to the select Under 50 Club ' • This select club of his has regular meetings (after every set of exams), holds regattas, and decided on the policy for the future. Gary did not tell us if he was President so we assume he is not. He is another- for-st for Hillcrest as his future plans include grad- uate studies in PIRACY. WILLIAM ROBERT VANSICKLE: ' ' I never expected to see the day when girls would get sunburned in the places thev do now. ' ' So who ' s complaining. ??? Bill ' Talent ' VanSickle is currently involved in displaying his musical talent as a member of his family ' s folk-sing- ing group. When not wracking his brains for the answers in French, Bill enjoys telling corny jokes so no one else can remember the ans- wers either. He lists his only hobby as HI ! FI but never under- estimate a VanSickle, especially the sly quiet type. Next year Carleton will enjoy his presence in the Commerce Faculty. MAUREEN VILLENEUVE: ' ' He who laughs last has the joke explained. ' ' Maureen is one of the quiet members of 13B that has a contagious laugh. Mau spends most of her leisure time studying to main- tain her high average. Next year she ' ll follow in the footsteps of her brother which lead to University.

I BILL SPENCER: ' ' Woman was God ' s second mistake. ' ' Bill has participated in some of our past spring Concerts, lending his undeniable talents in music. To him, a stay of five years at Hillcrest is enough for anyone so next year will find him at Carleton. JAMES MICHAEL STALLABRASS: ' ' I prefer a comfortable vice to a virtue that bores. ' ' Mike invaded Hillcrest after a sojourn at Gloucester High for the past three years (he was here in grade nine). During those years he has develope d an interest in curling, basketball, soccer and track and field. A really nice guy, Mike has made his presence felt throughout the student body. Carleton Univer- sity is this guy ' s next stop and we wish him the best of luck. LAUR1 SQUIRE: ' ' I ' m cool, I ' m suave, I ' m the greatest. ' ' So says our modest Lauri. Nonetheless we grudgingly admit that she does have some- thing of which to be proud. Her ability on the piano and guitar participation in the Band and Choir, Concert, Yearbook and that rising folk-singing group The Doorstep Singers ' ' (whew!) are nothing to be sneezed at. Trent University will claim all these talents with Lauri next year. ALAN WAYNE STARCHER: ' ' Women and elephants never for- get an injury. ' ' This boy is all for sports, exemplified by his various activities in this field. He is a member of our bowling team, He golfs, skiis and partici- pates in the popular sport of karate. Music is one of his less dangerous interests. Next year s plans are for a science course at Carleton. LOUISE SWAN: ' ' Exclusiveness is a character- istic of recent riches, high society and the SKUNK! ' ' A flash of red hair and a vibrant smile indicates that Louise is present. This girl loves Drama and participates in a flock of activities, including a folk group known as the ' ' Villagers . Next year Louise intends to con- tinue her studies at Ottawa U. DAVE STROUD: All things come to him who waits- even grade thirteen. Dave shares the interests of most boys, namely that of cars and motorcycles. After a two year reprieve in Newfoundland he returned to Hillcrest to complete his high school education. E.O.I.T. will have Dave as a new addition next year. DOUGLAS ALAN STREET: Hell is a state of mind. Doug can be justifiabley branded as a B.M.O.C. (big-man-on-campus) . This is readily illustrated by his position as International Trustee for the Key Club, which does reap a certain amount of admiration from others. Closer to home, Doug lends his talents to our Basketball and soccer teams, B.A. A. Executive and the Board of Control. Carleton is his next stop. - only a small event before becoming Prime Min- ister of the World. BONNIE LANA SYE: It is as easy to give advice to yourself as to others, and as useless. Bonnie left us this year for parts unknown but dur- ing her stay she left an indel- lible impression particularly in the field of sports. Cheer- leading (in and out of school), basketball and volleyball were a few of her many activities. We wish her luck in the future wherever she is. ■Pit • MERVIN SYKES: Merv is the guy in the back of the room. Beneath that cool and calm exterior lies, we bet, a mind that is systematically plotting the over- throw of the school. Good luck in your future endeavours MervJ BARRY ALBERT SYRETT: ' ' It takes a clever man to turn cynic, and a wise man to be clever enough not to. Barry ' s indust- rious life puts us all to shamer He is a member of the Over 80 club, he is in the band and choir he skiis and plays tennis. Carle- ton ' s Engineering course will be enriched by Barry ' s arrival after graduation.

JANICE EISA VROOMAN ' ' Marriageis a ghastly public confession of a strictly private intention. ' Diversified is the word! Who else do we know whose hobbies are music and chem- istry? In relation with the former, she is an active member of the band but she has yet to display the mad scientist aspect of her character. Perhaps pre- Law at Carleton will provoke this characteristic into revealing itself, but somehow we doubt it. • IAN DAVID WADE ' ' The female knee is an entertainment and not a joint. ' ' Ian is one of the few people privileged enough to belong to the Cap ' n Crunch Crew at Hillcrest. Besides having a sense of humour and a red Dodge Charger, he is our head Boy and also the Presi- dent of the Central Students Council for all Ottawa High Schools. In his extra time (if he has any) he wrestles, skis, (water or snow) , and we suspect that he likes chasing girls. He should do well at Carleton next year as he plans to take science. SANDRA WARD. ' T ve used up three kiss- proof lipsticks and I still don ' t know if it works. ' ' Sandy succeeded where others have failed. She stumped I.S.L. and that takes some doing, as a result we haven ' t any idea what she does outside of study. In her spare time she plans to go to University somewhere in Canada. MARITA VOELKER ' ' Silence is more musical than any song. ' ' Quiet and mysterious des- cribes this girl. She tells us her activities are none, her sports are none, and her hobbies are none. Boy! this girl is really quiet ' and mysterious! She did manage to tell us however that she will be attending Carleton next year. Good luck! ROBERT WANLESS ' ' I am beginning to enjoy the true sense of security. I have reached the stage where I doubt in a very SURE way. ' ' Rob during his stay on the Hill has been a member of the curling club. In his spare time during the summer he becomes a boatingenthusiast. In the winter he hibernates and thinks about taking Science at Carleton. LINDA JEAN WATSON ' ' All charming people are spoiled; it is the secret of their attraction. ' ' The awesome and rather dutiful position of Head Girl was handed to Linda this year and she has proven herself to be more than capable. Her many activities include being a member of the Yearbook Staff, the Booster Club, and Dance Committee. But wait, there ' s more! She has also lent her services to the Central Student ' s Council of Ottawa by- accepting the task of Chairman. U. of T. is Linda ' s next stop where she plans to take Physio- therapy. MERLE WATSON ' ' A lie is that which you do not believe. ' ' Quiet, but industrious, Merle devotes most of her time to her 4-H and A.Y.P.A. groups, She has been striding the halls of Hillcrest for 5 years and figures enough is enough. Merle ' s plans for the future Kemptville Agricultural School for Home Economics where we know she will be crowned with success. CAROL ELLEN WHITE ' ' When a woman gets too old to be attractive to man she turns to God. ' ' Carol is a veteran of five years during which time she has gained recognition in many fields. Her voice has been heard in the Choir for five years, Last year she was a Prefect and a Princess of hearts. This year she is on the Board of Control and is Female Dance Committee Chairman. She also roller skates, skiis, and collects pennies (so she can open her own Casino if she doesn ' t make University next year). SHEILA EILEEN WATSON You won ' t skid if vqu stay in a rut. ' ' Sheila has successfully en- dured Hillcrest for the past five years. She is a member of the 4-H club and she sews in her spare time. Her pet peeve is the wild bus drivers who endanger her life everv morning. The nursing staff at the Ottawa Civic will see her happy smile next year. RON WEINS ' ' I still don ' t know if I was born in a nest or a hive. ' ' Ron has a very varied time- table. He spends a lot of time in the gym with the basketball teams. He finds time also to help with the Track and Field in the Spring. In his spare time Ron plans to go to University to take a B.P.H.E.
