MATRICULATION X — ROOM 12 Merris Baryski— Loves rugby a lot, But when it comes to playing, in the games he is not. Bill Holochuk— When over-credited on the exam, He tells Mr. Pearce, oh boy, what a ham! William Aronec— A pretty girl came walking past, And Willie vanished very fast. Clarence Chick— Clarence is a naughty chick, His mind on school it will not stick. Edna Shoesmiih— When it comes to memorizing Edna’s on the top, But she talks and talks so long, you think she’ll never stop. Herb Dressier— In Isaac Newton this small lad is just another rookie, But when he does not come to school, for sure he’s playing hookey. Nick Kushnir— As our vice-president no one would stick, So we decided to give it to Nick. Peggy Smith— At the boys she doesn’t look, She would rather read a book. Joe Wialrowski— Painting beauty is all right, Or drawing birds upon their flight, But if at drawing teacher Joe is caught, He will sure be on the spot. Mike Ladyka— A girl friend Mike must really need. But to the girls he pays no heed. Mary Chudzik— When teacher is out Mary knows quite well, She better be quiet or Teddy will tell. Charlie Abells— Of Charlie Abells it’s quite true, He’s so naive and bashful too. Alan Knoll— Right to school on time comes he, But home in bed he’d rather be. Nelson Boychuk— His brains for school he cannot spare, It’s just for planes that he does care. Ronald Matthews— As soon as the teacher his teaching will stop, Immediately Ronnie with questions will pop. Norman Boyd— When the teacher’s in the room he never says a word, But when the teacher’s left the room, the loudest he is heard. Ted Maxim— The clock it said five after nine and school had begun already, When suddenly the door swung wide and in came marching Teddy. William Mederski— When Billy goes down to the pool, we know it’s not to swim, It’s just to watch the pretty girls in bathing suits so trim. Eney Maydanyk— The only time when in his seat our Eney is perturbed, Is when the bell begins to ring hh slumber is disturbed. George Kurtz— The reason that George Kurtz in class is always well-behaved, Is that to chase a certain girl his energy he’s saved. Art Pilkinglon— For a nice girl he has looked all around, And in Room Twenty that girl he has found. Borden Pastiuk— Nicknames Borden has a lot, But high marks he hasn’t got. Arnold Monk— Is quite convinced that hockey’s really grand, But when he tries to play, on skates he cannot stand. Tommy Nipper— Writing verses of my room, it really was a strife, But to the school I come no more, I’m scared to lose my life. Mr. Pearce— Of Mr. Pearce it’s really true, He tries his best to get us through, If in ten years our room you’re near, Drop in room twelve—we’ll still be here.

34 ISAAC NEWTON HIGH SCHOOL MATRICULATION X — ROOM 1 “All the world’s a stage and all the men and women merely players.” Isaac Newton was our stage, we were the actors and our year here was a play in which shone the bright genius of our activities. Our leading man for a time was Frank Sloclci. When he resigned from the principal role Eleanor Breiienfeld took over and carried her part with great success. Walter Romanow, being a treasurer true to form, managed to refrain from any graft. Ted Zachar- kow, our vice-president, was “tops” in our War Savings Stamps campaign. Len Thompson was the joker and hu¬ morist. Ethel Winthrop was the artist and producer of fine sketches, her spec¬ ialty being heads of Indian chiefs. Irvin Labovitch was an “all-out” good sport. Doreen Friezen, Lavinia Carman, Helen Kapac, Cecelia Michalishyn were seen, but seldom heard. Walt Honest Bo- honos and Andrew Yurechuk ' s favorite saying was “no kidding.” Cliff Olcen was preparing to be a “medico.” Ray Mullan was the ladies’ choice. Walter Stackiw and Stan Polyschuk were fre¬ quently heard to ejaculate “uh-huh.” Vera Kachanovsky was the songstress of our class. Lena Melnyk and Gene¬ vieve White reached a common under¬ standing through their enjoyment of sport. Paul Ristock and Ted Ziemski played the part of jesters. Stan Firman and Ernest Kulynych were both good violinists. John Renkewitz had the scientific instinct. Ruth Lohse was al¬ ways doing her bit for the Red Cross. Mildred Johnson was a typical girl guide and Irene Maslanky was a typical guide for girls. Among those who con¬ tributed to the melodies were May Hanson, Milly Fritz, Marie Nazar, Helen Kirunchyk, Hope Ioews, Anne Greg¬ ory and Mary Kwasnycia. She of the calm and controlled mind was Helen Smalluk. The two pair of class twins were Nina Seminoff and Margaret Mo- skalyk, Lily Klonoff and Sylvia Kliger- man. Audrey Haine, the chatterbox, showed a lot of action in sports. Our play in its many phases pro¬ gressed under the leadership of Miss McCrum, our counsellor and friend. Yes, the Isaac Newton was our stage and this year was our first act. We hope our second and third act will be just as successful. —ANDY YURECHUK. Typographical Error As Mr. Smith mounted the platform to open the flower show, all eyes were fixed upon the large red nose he dis¬ played. Only years of careful cultiva¬ tion could have produced such a brilliant exhibit. College Chum—“What are you going to do this summer?” College Pal—“Work in my father ' s office. What are you doing?” College Chum—“Oh, nothing either.” - Do You Know? That more people in Canada carry Fire Insurance wiih THE WAWANESA MUTUAL INSURANCE CO. Than with any other Company! THERE ' S A REASON They get more protection for the same money. FIRE - PERSONAL P RO PERTY FLOATERS - AUTOMO BILE Branch Office: 405 National Trust Building, Winnipeg Local Agent: Mr. G.
