Isaac Newton High School - Newtonian Yearbook (Winnipeg, Manitoba Canada)

Text from Pages 1 - 132 of the 1947 volume:

The two men, Mr. W. J. Sisler and Mr. A. E. Floyd, who have guided the destiny of Isaac Newton so ably for a quarter of a century . . . Those Newtonians who served their country in time of need . . . Those who gave selflessly of their life’s blood in a determined defence of higher ideals and died glor¬ iously that we might live on, free and unoppressed . . . Those who have achieved honor and fame . . . The staff of men and women who have served so well . . . The thousands of students who have passed through these halls of learning, each in his or her own way helping to make Isaac Newton a great High School. . . We humbly and sincerely dedicate this Twenty - fifth Anniversary Newtonian. Sfl iTl [ ill U.,l ISAAC NEWTON HIGH SCHOOL Parr Street and Aberdeen Avenue, Winnipeg, Canada Newtonian 3 PRINCIPAL ' S MESSAGc I N my opinion, a desirable education calls for as wide a cultural training as possible. Are you thinking of becoming a teacher, doctor, nurse or trades¬ man, or would you prefer to enter the business world? If so, you must not allow your main objective to be pushed aside by some present attraction that may loom up. Such an act would dim the vision of your final goal and lessen your chances of reaching it. On the other hand do not try to arrive too soon. This is often done by neglecting all training that is not concerned with the immediate skill or information required and results in a lop-sided inadequate education. Interests and usefulness are thus tied to too narrow a field. At high school age you are especially beset by such temptations and to give way to them is a dangerous practice against which you must brace your feet, as either of those mistakes will bring you to the end of your school years, without the cultural foundation needed for responsible living. Leaders in the professions, office managers, and personnel staffs every¬ where, are stressing the need for young people with a broad educational back¬ ground. They want people with a nowledge of literature and social studies, with an understanding of practical mathematics and science and with an acquaintance with the cultural arts and trained in expressing themselves. To provide this type of education, along with proper health habits and sympathe¬ tic attitude toward others, is the school’s chief function. It offers practice in special skills, too, but the broader cultural background is its chief concern. It is my greatest desire that no student may graduate from Newton High handi¬ capped by a lack in these fundamental things. For that reason I have taken so much of my precious space in your Year Book to emphasize it once again. Lay well the foundations of your education and be steadfast in striving for your objective for “it is the set of your sail and not the gale that determines the final goal.” Now let us look back over the year just passed. I think that we can pro¬ nounce it a good year. I am sure that we shall long recall with pleasure our success in sports, our feeling of satisfaction as we presented “The Gondoliers”, our happy social gatherings from time to time when we felt that the school was well united and loyal, and finally we have reason to be happy about the substantial educational achievement of many. The teaching staff as usual has given skilful and sympathetic leadership in every department. The student organizations have handled their responsibilities well. The spirit that maketh alive has been in evidence. To all, my deep appreciation and my heartfelt thanks. For eight years I have said a special word of farewell to those who were graduating from the school. This year I must include all—those students who will return in the fall, as well as those who will not, the teachers, the secretary, the men who have kept the building so comfortable, and the school itself. I have had nine active, happy years at Newton. I have had the privilege of working with an efficient, forward-looking staff. I have had the friendship of some thousands of fine young people, and I have had excellent co-operation and appreciation from the district. What more could one ask? To one and all my very best wishes and my fondest hopes for their future success. May our great country be blessed by the lives of the young men and women who have studied, played and lived at Newton. Finally, in the words of Byron, Farewell! a word that must he, and hath been . . . A sound that makes us linger;.. yet.. farewell! A. E. Floyd. FRONT ROW (left to right)—J. Zuk, L. Kozar, R.

To commemorate this outstanding occasion, we the editorial staff, have attempted in tin ' s Silver Jubilee Year Book to recapture the sparkling highlights of years gone by. The staff of students and teachers have worked hard to make this year s Newtonian the best ever published. The only thing 1 can say on my own behalf is “thank you for the privilege of serving as its editor. While on the subject of saying thanks, 1 think it only fitting that we all join in and give our sincerest thanks to Mr. Floyd, Newton’s ever so able prin¬ cipal who has guided the school so illustriously fornine years. It required a great man indeed to fill the shoes of the extremely capable Mr. W. J. Sisler but Mr. Floyd was just such a man and has done an admirable job. As you know, this has been Mr. Floyd’s last year at Newton. It is with the deepest regret that we bid him farewell. For many of you, the reading of this year’s edition of the Newtonian will mark finis to your high school career. When you turn over the last page, it will be the closing of one of the most vivid and thrilling chapters of our life but you will be taking away with you a store of memories that will be yours to hoard and fondle as a miser does his gold. Don’t allow these memories to become tarnished; take them out often, brush away the cob-webs of time and transport yourself back to the pleasant and carefree days spent at Newton. As you go forth along your various chosen paths, keep forever before you our school’s time-honored motto. Emblazon it on your mind and you must surely succeed . . . “Vincit Qui Se Vincit.” Editor-m-Chief Assistant Editors DEPARTMENTS: Art .

Coleman, M. Balagus, K. Gacek, A. Dryburgh, M. Bodnarchuk (vice-president), D. Schouten (president), D. Shero (secretary), L. Gzebb, B. Furgala, B. Kormylo, H. Davies, D. Leonard B. Fishman, S. Schlamb. An overwhelming majority elected Harold Mauthe president of Isaac New¬ ton at the beginning of the term. Har¬ old’s progressiveness and determina¬ tion proved he was ably fitted for the position of president. Mary Bodnarchuk was elected vice-president, and Jessie Douglas, secretary. Due to the demands of school studies, Harold was forced to resign and new elections took place. Dick Schouten was elected the new school president in a closely contested battle. Mary Bod¬ narchuk remained vice-president, while Dora Shero took over the position of secretary. Council members were elected to act as chairman of various committees. Each week they gave a report of their meetings. A few of the accomplish¬ ments were as follows: Leonard Gzebb, along with his chosen Athletic committee, performed a very progressive job. Through their efforts, the students received better baskets, balls, nets, and various other equip¬ ment for both boys and girls. A stu¬ dent venture of awarding Memorial Trophies to the best boy and girl ath¬ lete was introduced by the committee, as well as providing a ping-pong table. All the dances, under the direction of Allan Dryburgh and his Social com¬ mittee drew capacity crowds. Newton has never had better social gatherings. Those students who could not dance were entertained with stage shows, mo¬ vies and sing songs. Allan resigned as he was elected the chairman of the Graduation committee. A1 Korchin was elected as the new chairman. A1 Korchin, chairman of the audi¬ torium committee, did an exceptional job throughout the year. Various en¬ tertainments were provided twice a month in the auditorium. The mem¬ bers who were elected to act on the Bulletin Board committee and the Lost and Found also deserve worthy praise. The heavy responsibility of presiding over the Students’ Council is not a simple task. However, Dick Schouten, who had been a member since his ar¬ rival at Newton, was well acquainted with his new job. The combined efforts of Dick, Mary Bodnarchuk and each room president, handled the students and their problems in a way that won the respect and admiration of Mr. Floyd, the teaching staff and the stu¬ dents themselves. Thanks for a difficult job well done. —D.S. Miss C. Griffiths Miss L. Edwards (secretary) Miss J. I.

The students on the whole are thoughtful and willing to co-operate. We will do our utmost to make this the best as well as the clean¬ est school in the city.” Mr. Bauer Mr. Skuzanski Thus spoke our two benevolent friends, Mr. Bauer and Mr. Skuzanski, better known as Hank and Frank. These two gentlemen are “great pals” to the student body and are considered more as per¬ sonal friends rather than janitors. Our expression of gratitude is extended to Frank because of his willing work in supplying milk and soft drinks for those of us who have had to stay at school during noon-hours. To Hank we give our heartiest thanks for the many services he has rendered us. As well as being the trainer of the rugby team, he has combined with Frank to form a jovial combina¬ tion that has put everyone at their ease. To them we extend our heartfelt grati¬ tude and appreciation.

First period, Helen F. gives Shirley I. her homework to copy. Judging by the noise Edward N. and Monster S. seem to be the only one’s awake. Walter P. ' s favorite expression in Room 5 is “Huh”? Dorothy B. and Elsie S. are our two noted gigglers. Tony S., Mar¬ vin H. and Ronnie M. are often seen together — could they be discussing school? Bernice Z. and Bill F. are the scholars of the class. Glad there’s a couple of them. “Who has homework done?” asks Frank W. or Ron K., two of our singers. Philip B., being the other singer, is also noted for his jokes. At noon in the lobby we see Robert H. listening to Fred L ' s fantastic tales. A.P. seems to be as good a time as any for tale-telling, so Stella K. and Bertha T. chatter away. Nick M. and Kasmir J. can be found doing their homework as usual. Mary S., our Social Rep., an¬ nounces our room parties. Myron Z. and Ken P. miss many a period while playing their violins.

Above all this gay- frolic can be heard, as always, the melodious? voices of the Big-4 “Wicked Bauer,” “Hopeless Byskal,” “Slim Gaul” and “Hot-Tempered Oliver” giv¬ ing their dramatized rendition of “Sing- Sing Blues.” All of a sudden the voice of our stooge arises out of nowhere shouting “Can it, here she comes” and “Presto” you see a studious group of prisoners. In walks our Chief Warden, who, upon witnessing such a scholarly cell, replies in a sweet, tender voice “My this is a lovely quiet cell, I wish all my cells were so ambitious as Cell 19.” Weil, we can dream, can’t we ? ? ? ♦ BACK ROW, lefl lo righl—A.

Have you ever wondered how our “proverbial red- school” came into being? It started ’way back in 1921. The building was planned with the assist¬ ance of Mr. W. J. Sisler, who later be¬ came its first principal. W. J. SISLER, B.Sc.E. There were many obstacles to be overcome, and the job called for per¬ severance and enterprise. Mr. Sisler worked with untiring persistence, and finally, in January of 1922, with the building still incomplete, the first class¬ es moved in. They were comprised of students from the Aberdeen, Srathcona and King Edward Schools. The change¬ over to the new school was executed so efficiently that there was no noticeable break in the regular routine and the term’s work went on as if uninter¬ rupted. The establishment of the Isaac Newton School brought into being one of Winnipeg’s first Junior High Schools. It accommodated only grades seven, eight and nine, having neither primary nor high school classes. As the district expanded and the stu¬ dent’s of Newton’s junior classes gradu¬ ated, there was a pressing need for a high school easily accessible to the chil¬ dren in the community. The addition of Grade X classes in 1926 was the first step in this direction. It was not until 1933, however, that Grade XI classes were added, and the Junior High was then permanently discontinued. In 1940 the addition of Grade XII made the school a complete Senior High School. The transition period that changed Isaac Newton from a Junior High t o a Senior High was a phase that was fraught with difficulties. Previous to this, as has already been mentioned, Isaac Newton, being a Junior High School, was regarded with the same in¬ difference that is accorded to any Junior High by its Senior brothers. This same feeling of insignificance persisted even after Newton was trans¬ formed into a full-fledged high school. The only way for Newton to establish herself as an equal academically, cul¬ turally and athletically was to attain the same high standards set by her fellow High Schools. This she set out to do in a determined manner. Thus it became the duty of our teach¬ ers to do their utmost to instill in the students a desire to develop their minds as well as a pride in their school. They did the job and did it well, as is evi¬ denced by the fact that during her short term as a high school, her students have already been awarded several Isbister Scholarships as well as numer¬ ous other awards. (Due to our inability to receive photographs, we have not been able to reproduce pictures of all winners.) ISBISTER WINNERS H. ITZKOW 1933 P.

During the first years it lacked a good library, which is now considered a prime requisite in every modern high school. Newton awoke to this need and devoted part of the school treasury to the establishment of such a library. Our library now holds over 3,000 books, which are freely circulated amongst the whole student body. Each year $300.00 is allotted for the purchase of new books, magazine subscriptions and periodicals. FIRST EDITORIAL STAFF OF TKE NEWTONIAN - 1933-34 BACK ROW: Lefi to right — A. Richmond, J.

YEAR BOOK graduates of the school. We have en- This year sees Newton presenting its deavored to make it the best edition fifteenth Year Book to the students and ever offered, and we think it compar- 38 Isaac Newton High School able to any of the others being pro¬ duced. It has been an arduous task, but we think you will agree with us when we say that we have achieved our desired goal. But the Year Book has not always been so. The product which lies be¬ fore you is the result of many long years of thankless toil along a rocky and hazardous road that was strewn with many seemingly insurmountable difficulties. That we have ultimately been able to produce a book of such merit is a credit to the many teachers and students who have given so un¬ selfishly of their time and efforts, not the least of whom is Mr. J. Connaghan. He deserves many thanks for his guid¬ ance and leadership during the infancy stage of the Year Book, which must surely have foundered were it not for his steady and adept hand. Not to be overlooked are the many industrious teachers who also gave invaluable as¬ sistance. A few of the more prominent that are called to mind are: Mr. A. Bowman, Mr. Korchik, Miss F. McNair, Miss Morrow, Miss O’Neil, Miss Hazel¬ wood, Miss McCrum and a host of others. For many years these same teachers delved into their own pockets to provide prizes for outstanding con¬ tributors to the Year Book. We can¬ not thank them enough for all they have done. The first Year Book ever published at Newton was a far cry from the de¬ luxe production of today. It was printed in 1931 and was an eight-page edition, completely void of pictures. Published by an advertising firm, it sold to the students for fifteen cents. Publication was then discontinued until 1933, when Newton, as a Senior High School, undertook to finance and produce its own Year Book. During the initial years, supervision and control of the Year Book was primarily in the hands of teachers but gradually, due to Mr. Connaghan’s influence, the respon¬ sibility of the Year Book was shifted to the shoulders of the students them¬ selves and is now a student venture en¬ tirely. Since 1933, each succeeding publica¬ tion of the Newtonian has been a fur¬ ther step along the road to success, culminating in this, our Twenty-fifth Anniversary number. Should Newton retain its fine standards, and we feel sure she will, then you may look for¬ ward to seeing even bigger and better editions of the NEWTONIAN. OUR NEW.

The only home-making course open to the girls was sewing. In September, 1946, however, largely through the work of Miss Sproull, a new, modern and well-equipped cook¬ ing and sewing room was opened and made ready for use. It is the purpose of this course to teach the girls the basis of home-making, meal planning and cooking. Here they become familiar with the use of new cooking devices and methods. The sewing room, though not as new as the cooking room, plays just as an important part in the lives of Home Economic students. Here they study home decorating and furnishing and de¬ velop their taste for harmony in color and arrangement. They are also taught crafts like chip carving, textile paint¬ ing, and poster painting. Thus Home Economics tends to de¬ velop the creative ability of its stu¬ dents and schools them in the funda¬ mentals of home-making. DEVELOPMENT OF MUSIC and ART Between 1922 and 1928 there were so many things to be completed that there was little time to spend for the cultiva¬ tion of the “finer arts.” But soon it be¬ came evident that Newton was not without its writers, painters and musi¬ cians. Gradually the way was opened whereby these talented individuals could further develop their skills. Miss McCrumm took over direction of the Glee Club and Orchestra and has been affiliated with them ever since their formation in 1931. Both the orchestra and the glee club have played leading parts in the production of concerts and operettas. In 1946 a section of Room 9 was par¬ titioned off for the use of those who wished to pursue their artistic inclin tions. Here Mr. Klassen instructs his disciples in the mysteries of painting and sketching. Some very excellent work has been turned out by Newton artists, and their art has been promi¬ nently displayed in the exhibtion of amateur artists. NEWTON AT PLAY Newton has been regarded as one of the foremost schools in Winnipeg sports for the past twenty-five y ears. The training received at Newton by many of its former sport’s enthusiasts has en¬ abled many of them to become famous throughout Canada and the United States. W. J. Sisler, the first principal of our school, was particularly interested in competitive games, and the sports that thrived during the years 1921 to 1929 were soccer and basketball. Newton’s first entry into soccer circles was a de¬ cided triumph. The competing team walked away with the Gardiner Shield. The year 1924 saw Mr. Sisler organize a team that captured the Senior Soccer laurels. The Isaac Newton Juvenile British Rugby team, coached by Messrs. Gow and Sisler won the Manitoba championship. After the transformation to a Senior High School, Newton again rose to the occasion and in 1930 won the Oldfield, Kirby and Gardner Shield, emblematic of soccer supremacy. Field, track, basketball, volleyball and baseball were the chief sports in the year 1931. Alex Dryburgh and Ed. Ostrowski showed great promise at the field day. Baseball was popular, and three teams were entered that year. Stalwarts such as Ross Papineau, PIRATES OF PENZANCE Newtonian 41 Paul Kuzma and Lou Labovitch formed the nucleus of Mr. Davey’s soccer team of 1933, while J. Mushy and Carl Wozny stood out for the junior footballers. Starry performers on the Senior Girls’ Volleyball Team were Olga Kolodie and Julia Matoski. The girls of that year also had a fine basketball team, which was headed by Nan Foster and Phyllis Krett. John Sokolowski and Mike Schir were the stare of the Senior and Junior Boys’ Basketball teams, respec¬ tively. Field Day was one of the highlights of the year 1936. Kasmir Geneja was the boys’ individual star, while Ruby Carlson excelled for the girls. Julia Matoski and Kay Sguzanski were stars on that year’s Girls’ Inter High Volley¬ ball team. Inter High hockey produced such notables as Paul Kornek (Reo Fly¬ ers) and Wally Koster (East Kildonan Bisons). Basketball was very success¬ ful with Leslie Carlson pacing the juniors and Carl Wozny and Wall Chic- kowsky sharing honors for the seniors. 1937 was a year that will go down in the annuals of Isaac Newton history as one of its most successful seasons in athletics. The boys’ Senior Basketball team, spurred on by the superb play of S. Ogradnick, P. Dack, J. Holinaty and Carl Wozny, won city honors, while the Junior team was less successful but still displayed a thorough knowledge of the game. The Senior A Soccer team of that year was best represented by Stan Shurgott and Rubin Ludwig. The outstanding field day performers in the boys’ were Kasmir Geneja, Willie Westman and Stan Pankow. The hard- checking pucksters for the hockey team of 1937 were W. Gibb and W. Koster. The girls who impressed in athletics during this term were Zena Bonder, Kay Skuzanski and Julia Phillips. The year 1938 was spotlighted by the winning of two basketball champion¬ ships. Harry Tchir, Nick Harrison and Mike Matoski aided greatly the copping of the junior cup, while Wally Chick- oski, Butch Ogradnick, Percy Dack and Stan Pankow excelled in the Senior cage tilts. Phil and Walter Harrisko paced the senior soccer team with their kicking, while those doing the honors for the juniors were Henry Leban and Frank Gunter. Although unsuccessful, these two teams fought gallantly and were an honor to the school. Those who stood out in hockey were Bill Mo- sienko (Chicago Black Hawk fame), Bill Conway and Walter Nider. The Senior cage artists of 1939 again captured the city Championship. Henry Leban, Joe Masick and George Gregory proved to be the main cogs in this sparkling quintet. The Junior basket¬ ball team was best served by two Nicks, Bobby and Mozel. That year marked the first appear¬ ance of Newton on the Gridiron. The Rugby machine, mentored by Bill Boivon and the late Jeff Nicklin, both of Winnipeg Blue Bomber fame, was a smooth-running ' outfit, high¬ lighted by the playing of Sammy La- vitt, Stan Black, T. Gibb, M. Kushman and S. Smando. Mr. Floyd and Mr. Connaghan strove hard to get equip¬ ment for the squad. They received some aid from the Winnipeg Rugby Club, but this was not enough; they haunted the second-hand stores, look¬ ing for old equipment. The practice ses¬ sions looked like fashion shows because the equipment was of all the colors of the rainbow. Much praise is due to Mr. Floyd and Mr. Connaghan; when things looked very hopeless during that year these two men refused to admit defeat. More than likely, Rugby would still be unknown in these parts if it hadn’t been for their fine work. The educated toes of the following players aided immensely in the 1939 league play of the Senior and Junior soccer entries — Stan Rohantynski, Henry Keller, Steve Koroby and Henry Leban. Inter-High hockey was still going strong during this, one of New¬ ton’s greatest sports years. Ted Hall- much, Joe Warecki, Sam Lavitt (who later won the most valuable player trophy while speeding down the ice lanes in Dallas, Texas), Archie Law, Peter Kapusta and Max Labovitch star¬ red on the team. Field day artists in the girls’ events who took honors were Margaret Roth and Connie Krajarski. Jean Tvirdochleb and Jennie Kereluk FIRST ISAAC NEWTON SENIOR SOCCER TEAM Winners, Gardiner Shield, 1921-22 ISAAC NEWTON JUVENILE BRITISH RUGBY TEAM Manitoba Champions, 1927-28 Newtonian 43 showed excellent spiking ability in the girls’ volleyball. 1940-1941 was a banner year for the Nor’Wester rugby aggregation. Every¬ body was a star and therefore we could not pick any one individual. The team romped to city and provincial glory. The players were: J. Douglas, A. Hall, J. Haydack, B. Janes, M. Labovitch, S. Lavitt, L. Offerovich, F. Welch, R. Ward, R. Wareham, J. Mazik, P. Ru- benstein, C. Baron, G. Bergh, B. Bras- chuck T. Dudar, D. Kaplan, V. Kern, S. Kenowicz, S. Markell, W. Olynik, M. Pollick, J. Placentine, J. Solilo, E. Slu- goski, F. Soltys, T. Wach, B. Turkula, T. Waitrowski, P. Yakimeschuk. The guidance of Coach Ches. McCance and the aid of Messrs. Armstrong, Babb and Floyd were prominent factors in the winning of the championship. Basket¬ ball was not so successful this year, but the boys did their best for our Alma Mater. John Roscoe, Percy Rubinstein, Steve Lacomy and Alex Sharowski were the best for the seniors, and Pete Moslovsky and Mike Brock worked hard for the juniors. Field day was also an important event, with Sammy Lavitt and Bill Turkula doing the hon¬ ors for the boys and Wanda Bay and Olga Chelada for the girls. Aileen Ca- par and Wanda Novak were the spark¬ plugs of the championship girls’ senior volleyball team. The junior girls’ vol- leyballers were best served by June Bauer and Audrey Freeman. In 1942 Newton entered an aggressive team in the rugby tournament. Ches. McCance was again the coach of the team included such all-stars as Percy Rubinstein and Ed. Slugoski. Although the team did not win a championship, Ted Wach, Bill Bell, Nestor Swystun, Tom Anderson and Paul Yakimischuk were impressive with their hard-hitting style of play. The Boys’ Junior bas¬ ketball team of 1942 was sparked by the clever playing of Danny Panisko and Ted Homenick, while Met Sawiak and Steve Krymski were the standouts of the Senior team. In the Girls’ sports division of that year, Tillie Stefanik and Jennie Sypush did well for the Senior volleyball team, as did Emily Shipel and Sophie Gregory for the Juniors. The rugby team of 1943 was not vic¬ torious, although S. Scazinetski, G. Webster, F. Hans, G. Heggie, W. Mal- kiewich, J. Stroppa, F. Shero, G. Zakala and B. Bell were standouts on a fight¬ ing team. Wally Romanow and Cyril Cartwirght were the ace footballers on the Senior A soccer team. The Senior “B” team boasted such players as Pete Wesioly and Bill Aronec. The Senior and Junior basketball teams did not win any championships but were high¬ lighted by the skill of Met Sawiak and Orest Hykawy for the former, and Pete Wesioly and Ted Lozanski for the lat¬ ter. 1943 was a gala year for the Girls’ Junior Volleyball team ' because they were declared city champions. Audrey Haine and Vera Pitel were the main cogs of the team. For the Girls’ Senior Volleyball team Olga Goshlak, Lovey Baydack, Violet Lulewick and Audrey Haine always showed top form. In the field day events, John Spottar, Joe Kostecky, Ted Homenick and Max Pol¬ lick were the high individual point-get¬ ters for the boys, while Vicky Fedoruk and Florence Prochera were tops in the girls’ events. The rugby team of 1944, coached by Bill Orban and Larry Desjardins, came very close to taking the honors, but were stopped by Kelvin in the finals. George Gordienko, Harold Bella and Sid Scazinetsky were on the all-star teams of that year because of their fine performance on the gridiron. An injury prevented Johnny Stroppa from showing his real ability. The Senior and Junior basketball teams met with very little success in the term of 1944. The Girls’ Senior Volleyball team won all their s cheduled games and were de¬ clared city champions. Miss Griffiths, who showed them the fundamentals of the game was their capable coach. The Juniors did not win any honors, but gave a good account of themselves. In the boys’ Feld day events Ted Lozanski was the leading point-getter and was closely followed by Wally Koltek, Tom JUNIOR VOLLEYBALL CHAMPS — ' 42 Newtonian 45 Nipper and Sam Chimilar. E. Shipel and O. Hrenchosy were the standouts in the girls’ events. The Newton gridders of 1945 suffered many injuries and this was the main cause of their weak showing. Another drawback was the continuous changing of coaches. Stroppa, Gordienko, Lozan- ski and Lohvinenko threw their weight around in great style. Both the Senior and Junior basketball teams had a rather unsuccessful season. The new basketball court was put up a little late, which prevented the boys from getting the necessary practice. The Junior girls’ volleyball team of 1945 made very fine showings in all their games and walked off with the championship. All the girls showed a keen interest in sport. The Girls’ Senior and Junior basketball teams played brilliantly, although they were not championship material. Stan Gibson, Steve Chmara and Nestor Tes- luk were the leading point-getters in the boys’ field day events. The boys’ senior basketball team cap¬ tured the city and provincial champion¬ ship. Frank Townsend, their coach, showed a thorough knowledge of the game. The outstanding performers were Steve Sohor, Nestor Tesluk, Steve Manilla, Harold Mauthe and Al. Pele- chaty. The Junior cagers, under the leadership of Coach George Gregory, had a successful season, with five wins, putting them in second place in the Inter-high competition. Daski and Chic- kowski showed their wares to perfec¬ tion. Under the supervision of Miss Griffiths, the girls’ Junior volleyball team walked off with the Inter-High championship. Lesia Dowhanyk, Elsie Bilyk and Margaret Black were out¬ standing. In the Inter-room field day events, J. Derewianko, S. Manilla, N. Tesluk and J. Hryshko were the indi¬ vidual stars for the boys, while Margie Penziwol and Doreen Gordienko stood out for the girls. 46 Isaac Newton High School EX NOBIS Newton students have distinguished themselves in every field—medicine, law, sports, art and literature. Of the hundreds who have passed through its doors, of the hundreds whose footsteps echo down its halls, many have earned recogni¬ tion in one field or another. Outstanding scholars, artists, and athletes have gone from her portals to the gates of the world to continue their pursuit of fame and success. We have lost track of many, for many have gone abroad to study or to distant parts of Canada and the United States to take up residence. But we would like to mention a few of those whom we know and whose activities will interest many of us. WILLIAM TUSKEY William Tuskey is a 1938 graduate. He attended Normal School in 1939 and taught school for two years. In 1942 he joined the R.C.A.F. He was a navi¬ gator on a bomber and held the rank of Flying Officer. He was with the 429 Squadron in England. In September, 1945, he received his discharge. He is now attending the University of Manitoba. He takes an active part in the choral society, sports and debating. He is taking Third Year Arts. This year he was elected Senior Stick of Arts. William intends to be a teacher. MISS FRANCES KAGAN Miss Frances Kagan graduated from Newton in 1944. She won the Catholic Women’s League Scholarship. She is studying at St. Mary’s Academy. She won the Nelda Kennedy Scholarship in 1945. She is a Third Year Arts Stu¬ dent and was elected Lady Stick for 1947-48. Last summer she went to Quebec and took a five-week course in French at Summer school and at Laval University. She is interested in His¬ tory, Music and Modern Languages. SAMUEL LAVITT Sammy Lavitt, well-known hockey and rugby star, graduated from New¬ ton in 1940. Sammy played with the East Kildonans, Monarchs and the R.C. A.F. He received a cup awarded to the most popular player on the team in the winter of 1943. Samuel was in the Air Force but when he received his dis¬ charge he resumed his hockey playing. He was with Dallas. He is at home now, but will soon leave for Flin Flon, where he plans to do some prospecting. Strike your goal, Samuel! THE DALE SISTERS The way to a man’s heart may be through his stomach, but the Dale Sisters, Jeanne Peiluck and Olive Har¬ rison, would probably stake their fine voices that songs and music run a close second. The two girls started their singing careers by coming first at many a Man¬ itoba Musical Festival and winning sev¬ eral cups. They later went to New York, where they studied singing with Madame Denolga. While they were in New York, they had a floor show in a nightclub. The girls accompanied their songs on mandolins, which have com¬ paratively soft tones. In order to dis¬ tribute the sound, the girls inserted ' miniature microphones in the hollow of the instruments, thus enabling the people in the farthest corner to hear clearly. Their popularity is partly due to the fact that besides singing in English, they know Russian, Ukrainian, French and Jewish. During the war, they went on a U.S.O. tour that lasted for two years, singing in Japan, New Cale¬ donia, Guadalcanal, the Phillippines, Korea, Bataan and numerous other places. While in Tokyo they witnessed the war crimes trials involving many Win¬ nipeg Grenadiers. Most of their songs were poplar hit tunes but they “sneak¬ ed in the odd semi-classics, something from light opera” said Miss Harrison. They were also in Iwo Jima at the time of the second anniversary of the raising of the flag. Pretty and tanned, the girls have just recently arrived in Winnipeg, having flown from Honolulu to San Francisco and thence home. Newtonian 47 FRANCES KAGAN Lady Slick, 1947-48 WILLIAM TUSKEY Senior Slick of Arls MISS LUBA NOVAK Miss Novak graduated in 1941. Since then she has made a name for herself in the field of music. The celebrated ’cellist toured Europe during the war with the Roesch Little Symphony. She was later engaged by the Strauss Or¬ chestra. The orchestra consists of thirty-five men and five women. They play semi-classics and classics, specializ¬ ing in Strauss’ work. In October they gave a performance for President Tru¬ man and his party in a Washington theatre. At present Miss Novak is touring the military hospitals as a soloist in the Eastern and Southern States. She also plays in a trio. Miss Novak intends to rejoin the Strauss Orchestra when the concert season re-opens. Music is the food of life, they say, so play on Miss Novak, I’m hungry. ♦ NEWTON GOES TO WAR The slogan of World War I was: THIS IS A WAR TO END ALL WARS. But in 1938 statesmen began to think differently. Talk of German re-arma¬ ment was everywhere; harsh words were flying between governments; war was a certainty. With the German invasion of Poland, matters were brought to a head. On September 3, 1939, Britain went to war against Germany and the Axis. A few days later, Canada indicated her sup¬ port of Britain’s action when, on Sep¬ tember 6, she too declared WAR. It took a long time for most of us to realize just what this meant. To us war was just a word; we failed to re¬ alize its significance and portent. It was inevitable that we at Newton should be caught up in the swift tide of events. Canada was calling for men —for young men from every walk of life, summoning them to the battle¬ fields of the world. Without hesita¬ tion, Newton accepted her full share in the struggle for world peace. With each new enlistment the Honor Roll in¬ creased, u ntil, by 1946, 1,120 names were inscribed on it. When, in August, 1941, the headlines told Canada that the Camerons had raided Dieppe, we began to realize the 48 Isaac Newton High School seriousness of the job we had under¬ taken. The losses were heavy and many Newton boys lost their lives on the bloody battle-field. Dieppe was only the first scene of a tragic drama unfolding before the eyes of the world. Our boys saw battle in every theatre of the war — Belgium, Holland, Italy, North Africa, Germany and the East. And in every battle new lives were lost and new families mourn¬ ed their dead. Many of the boys who were in the fighting lines, did not, even in the heat of the struggle, know why they were out there fighting, and many of them wondered if the world would be any better for all the sacrifices its youths were making. They were still young and reluctant to give up all that life offered them without being assured that their sacrifices would not be in vain. The following excerpt is quoted from a letter deposited with the Air Force to be mailed home only on condition that the writer should not return from an operational flight. It gives us an inkl¬ ing of some of the thoughts that run through the mind of a boy on active service. His ideas are very strikingly stated: “I have chosen my path and I must follow it. I am proud to have been given my chance to strike a blow for freedom. I am not fighting for England or Canada. I fight for the right to the freedom for which we are all born. No one must take that heritage from us. “In days to come the airmen of Can¬ ada will be remembered by the free men of all nations. You must not tar¬ nish that tradition by being sad because I died living up to it ... I have shot my bolt; I have paid my debt to humanity. O God! I hope I have not died in vain.” Among the writer’s personal papers was an article which included the fol¬ lowing sentences, evidently written to clarify his own thoughts regarding the war. “Gradually the full meaning of this greatest of wars has filtered through my mind. I am no superman. I am endowed with average intelligence and physique. You may see me on the farms, in the small towns, in humming factories, on city streets, in the dimness of poolrooms and the brightness of dance halls. In short, I am the youth of Canada” . . . “Ours is an arduous task. It will not be easy. We will have to endure suffering and hardships; but we will, we must triumph.” . . . “Freedom or cringing slavery, we must choose it now.” DISTINGUISHED WAR HEROES The fortitude shown by Canadian boys in the battles of World War II will never be forgotten. Their valorous deeds of heroism were recognized by all nations. Many of our own Newton lads were given honourable mention in news despatches and many others earned medals, ribbons and bars for their services. Though we do not know of all the boys who have performed heroic feats, certain of them have been brought to our respectful attention. PILOT OFFICER ANDREW CHARLES MYNARSKI, V.C. Pilot Officer Andrew Charles Mynar- ski was posthumously awarded the Empire’s highest medal for valor — the Victoria Cross — the second award of its kind in the history of the R.C.A.F. Andrew had been mid-upper gunner on a Lancastrian bomber. He lost his life from burns received while attempting to rescue his comrade. June 12, one week after D-Day, the Lancaster was flying over France when an enemy fighter attack caused the en¬ gines to burst into flame. Andrew was spattered with hydraulic acid but when he saw his comrade trapped in the blaz¬ ing rear turret, he scrambled through the blaze and frantically tugged at the immovable turret. The Captain ordered the crew to abandon ship, but until P.O. Brophy warned Andrew away, he continued to struggle with the mecha¬ nism. He reluctantly went towards the escape-hatch, and as a last tribute to his seemingly-doomed comrade, he stood to attention in his flaming cloth- Newton A N 49 ing and parachute and saluted before he jumped. French people saw his flaming de¬ scent. They found him later, but he was so severely burned that he died from his injuries. The rear gunner miraculously escaped death when the bomber crashed, but he states that had P.O. Mynarski not attempted to save his life, he surely would have escaped death himself. MAJOR ALEX KELLER Major Alexander Keller graduated from Newton in 1931. He worked in the mines diamond-drilling, and then was with the railway. On September, 15, 1939, Alex enlisted in the Cameron Highlanders as a buck private. He went overseas in 1940. He was at Dieppe in 1942, and because of his action he was awarded the Military Medal. He came home on leave in ’43. Then he went in for Officer’s Training at Brockville, Ontario. He instructed officers for six months. He received a commission and went overseas for the second time. This time he was with the Calgary Highlanders. He received the Military Cross in November, 1944. September 6, 1945, he was discharged, with the rank of major. Alex now represents the Dept, of Veterans’ Affairs. He has been at this since 1945. We’re proud of you, Alex. Here’s luck and further success to you. LIEUTENANT WALTER YANKEWICZ Lieutenant Walter Yankewicz, gradu¬ ate of Isaac Newton, has led a very interesting and exciting life since his school days. He has attended Univer¬ sity at Heidelberg in Germany and at London. He has passed his entrance examinations for the University of Cal¬ ifornia and is to leave shortly, but he intends to go North and gain some ex¬ perience at Diesel engineering first. He aims to be a Mechanical Engineer. When he completes his course at the University he will depart for South America. When Walter left school he enlisted in the American Navy. The slogan “Join the Navy and See the World” certainly applied to Lieutenant Yanke¬ wicz. He has been in Germany, the British Isles, South America, Iraq, Iran, Egypt and Gibralter. He has seen ac¬ tion in Burma, Sicily and in the Pa¬ cific. He was in India at the time of the starvation. He was blown out of his fox-hole, against a tree, when a shell exploded fifteen feet away. He was wounded in the shoulder and twice in the leg. He was also listed as missing for four months while he was cut off in a valley in Burma. Once he was torpedoed off the coest of Newfound¬ land. He has received the U.A.A. Torpedo Bar and the South West Pacific Orange Star. Isaac Newton is proud of this young man, who has distinguished himself in lands afar. We wish him luck and fu¬ ture success. FLYING OFFICER KARL DZINKOWSKI Flying Officer Karl Dzinkowski at¬ tended Newton in 1937-1938. In 1941 he enlisted in the R.C.A.F. One day, while they were testing a Ventura bomber, they developed engine trouble. They were unable to hold altitude and crashed. The aircraft caught fire. One of the crew members had broken his leg in the spill and Karl rescued him from the burning wreckage. The air¬ craft was totally destroyed but the four crew members escaped unharmed except for severe burns. They were in the hospital for some time. Then, in June, 1942, Karl was awarded the Brit¬ ish Empire Medal. Karl was with the service for five years. He was in the Transport Command and ferried ships all over the world but particularly be¬ tween England and Africa. He received his discharge in 1945. At present he is attending the Uni¬ versity of Manitoba. He is taking Third Year Arts. He intends to register for medicine this year. Isaac Newton looks with pride upon this young man, and we wish him luck and success in his future ent erprises. Isaac Newton High School 50 PO. ANDREW MYNARSKI, V.C. A most conspicuous act of heroism which called for valor of the highest order. Newtonian MAJ. ALEX KELLER, M.M., M.C. r FO, KARL DZINKOV SKI, B.E.M LIEUT. WALTER YANKEWICZ 52 Isaac Newton High School WAR ACTIVITIES RED CROSS Many of the boys have said that they could not have survived the horrors and privations of the war without the aid of the Red Cross. On foreign soil, where a stranger might more easily be foe than friend, the little comforts which the Red Cross brought were of supreme importance. Here at home, we soon realized that an organization as benevolent as the Red Cross could not carry on its great work without the aid of financial and material support from individuals and communities. Thus, early in the war, plans were made whereby this cause could be furthered. The Canadian schools were asked to participate, and Isaac Newton determined that it too, would work in support of the Red Cross. In September, 1940, Miss Macbeth and Miss Hazelwood organized the Isaac Newton Senior Red Cross. The work was voluntary and the girls needed no persuasion to enter enthusiastically and zealously into the work. In the first year of its formation, they turned out nearly 400 knitted and sewn articles. These included clothing from babies’ booties to size 12 socks. No effort was spared. Besides supply¬ ing our boys with scarves, helmets, sweaters and socks, clothing was sent to the Netherlands Red Cross and the Navy League. By May, 1947, 2,479 ar¬ ticles had been furnished. Through devious ways and methods, which involved the efforts of hundreds of students, our Red Cross fund grew steadily. Concerts, sales of candy, teas and bazaars were held regularly. Pro¬ ceeds from these affairs were all do¬ nated to the Red Cross. In larger school undertakings like fairs and operettas, part of these proceeds were also given. During the seven years of its opera¬ tion, the school contributed nearly $1,000.00 in money to the organization. In 1944, through the combined efforts of the teaching staff, it became possible to send each boy overseas, a copy of the year book. That was a rather costly undertaking, but the genuine apprecia¬ tion of the boys made the effort well worthwhile. Since 1940 it had been the practice to send letters and cards to all members of the Armed Forces, but in 1943, the school also decided to send parcels to those who were overseas. These con¬ tained socks, shaving kits, chocolate bars, cigarettes and other little com¬ modities. It was rather a difficult job to send these parcels. Besides having to pack, label, and address them, the girls found it no easy task to purchase many of the articles. But, despite these obstacles, the job was done—and we knew our efforts had not been in vain. The following excerpts are typical of the many letters received in apprecia¬ tion of the Newton Red Cross: “Thanks a million for the Christmas Card and the news letter. I am sure proud of the old school. Looking at its picture brings back pleasant memories of friendships made there” . . . “Received your most welcome letter, the Year Book, the sweets and the socks. It is wonderful of the school to send us the parcels. The Year Book is a treasure to all. We read it over and over again” . . . FIRST AID First aid classes were started in 1940 under the direction and supervision of Miss Macbeth, who directed the girls, and Mr. Armstrong, who instructed the boys. First Aid was marked the same way as “readin’ writin’ and ’rithmetic” and was considered as part of the commer¬ cial or matriculation course. Mr. Hill awarded St. John Ambulance Certifi¬ cates to the first class in 1941. In 1945, when it became evident that the war would soon be over, the classes were discontinued. WAR SAVINGS STAMPS In 1940, Newton began an extensive campaign for the purchase of War Sav¬ ings Certificates. One day a week was set aside to collect the money, and soon Newtonian 53 the quarters began to pour in. A shield presented to the school by Mr. Jack McKenzie (former janitor of Isaac New¬ ton), instigated keen rivalry among the different classes. Gradually the con¬ test for supremacy narrowed down to Rooms 1 and 14. In 1945, when the last certificate was bought, Room 14 held the shield. The purchases of certificates throughout the war amounted to well over $5,000.00. PENNY FUND Acting on the suggestion of a former student, Walter Peterson, a Penny Fund was started at Newton early in 1940. The plan was to have students contri¬ bute pennies and odd nickels and dimes to the fund, so that the War Savings Certificates drive could be furthered. It was a very successful plan, for many who had found it difficult to buy cer¬ tificates themselves, were now quite willing to contribute to the purchase of certificates in the school’s name. After the first year the system was in operation, the fund reached the sum of $250.99. By June, 1945, it had grown to $670.00. When, in 1946, the school decided to build th e War Memorial, the Penny Fund Certificates were refunded by the Government and set aside for this pur¬ pose. At the unveiling of the Memorial. Walter Peterson, the originator and or¬ ganizer of this great success, was an honorary guest, in appreciation of the aid he had extended to his “Alma Mater.” WAR MEMORIAL The erection of the War Memorial was made possible through the Penny Fund. The Committee had decided to build a memorial in honour of those who had fallen in battle in World War II, and the memorial took this form. On the memorial is portrayed photo¬ graphs of each of the servicemen, against a background of soft colors. It includes the portrait of a member of the staff, Captain Allan Bowman, who fell at Hong Kong on December 25, 1941, and the portrait of the Victoria Cross winner, P-O Andrew Mynarski, who was killed over France. Surrounded by flags of all the allied nations, the memorial bears this simple inscription: “In memory of the Newtonians who fell in World War II.” The ceremony of the unveiling was held on Sunday, November 17, 1946, in the lower hall of the school. Relatives, friends and guests were present to pay tribute to the fine lads who had given their lives “so that others might live.” Mrs. Phillip Smith, mother of Gun¬ ner Leonard Smith (killed in Sicily), and Sgt. Kenneth Smith (killed over Germany) unveiled it, and a one-minute silence was observed. Mr. Floyd then called the Roll of the 49 students who had died on every battlefield of the world. The ceremony was simple but im¬ pressive. Representatives of the Army, Navy and Air Force were present. Other honorary guests were: Mr. W. J. Sisler Rev. Dr. John M. White Rabbi Dr. Solomon Frank Rev. Father S. Semczuk Acting Mayor C. E. Simonite Miss Olga Ewaskiw (soloist) Mr. Taraska Mr. Foreman Mr. Martin Walter Peterson The War Memorial is kept lit con¬ stantly whenever the school is in use and will ever remain a token of our gratitude to those who by their cour¬ age, spared our lives and happiness.

But with¬ out a captain a ship cannot sail and without a principal a school cannot grow. During the first half of its twenty- five years, Newton was guided by a man whose every thought was directed to its well-being and success. He gave Newton his youth and Newton gave him happiness in return. This man is Mr. Sisler. Many of our earlier New¬ tonians will remember him. He has been a friend and counsellor to many. When he retired from the principalship in June, 1938, he left behind him many sincere friends and admirers. We would like to extend to you the best wishes of Mr. Sisler and leave with you these words: Quote “I have always and still do take great pride in the Isaac Newton School. “In scholarship, sport and conduct the students have at all times ranked high. “It is a great pleasure to meet former teachers and pupils. I seldom get on a car or walk even a few blocks with¬ out meeting someone formerly con¬ nected with the school. Naturally some are not recognized at once, as boys and girls change greatly in a few years after student days are done. “The name and some incidents of the old days soon call them to mind. Just walk up and say ‘hello.’ “To all teachers and pupils, past and present, I extend my best wishes.” (signed) W. J. SISLER. Mr. Floyd came to Newton at a very critical time—it was only one year be¬ fore the start of the war. The future was uncertain and it was difficult to lay plans for the further development of the school when the clouds of war hovered so threateningly overhead. The war came—it was inevitable that it should. It was no easy task to guide the school through the next six years—for they were six years fraught with anxiety and grief for many of New¬ ton’s families. But as Bryant said: “The fiercest agonies have shortest reign, And after dreams of horror, comes again, The welcome morning with its rays of peace.” So peace eventually returned to a war-stricken world, and with the sign¬ ing of the peace also, a great burden was lifted from the shoulders of our principal as it was similarly lifted from the shoulders of peoples all over the world. He has led Newton through a difficult phase of its being and he has led it well. To Mr. Floyd, the school says “Thank you and God Bless You.” Evelyn Kuchta Newtonian 59 SOCIAL As far as Newton’s Social Activities are concerned, this year has been a very successful one. Besides having a larger number of gatherings, there were also greater turnouts. Looking back, we find that dances of the past, although not very frequent, have always been popular at Newton. Socials have be¬ come an important part of our school life, and thanks to our Social Commit¬ tee and staff, every one this year has been a success. The “PUMPKIN PROM”, our first event, was well-planned. There were jiving, dipping and waltzing contests, with prizes for our best dancers. The highlight of the evening was a contest for the most gruesome and original drawing of “Lena the Hyena.” The re¬ sults were ghastly but comical. These were flashed on the screen for the audi¬ ence to judge. It was a grand evening and a good start for a successful social year. Seven years ago, Newton held an im¬ portant dance in honor of the Rugby Team, who had won the Provincial Championship. The proceeds of that dance helped buy the amplifier and rec¬ ord player, which added a great deal to our dances this year. As in 1940, our boys once again brought home the Championship and the “TOUCHDOWN TROT” was held in their honor. The proceeds of this dance helped buy those smart new jackets which the members of the team are now sporting. Movies and an old-fashioned sing-song made up the stage performance, and the team was introduced to the crowd. Jiving and dipping, mixed with cokes and laughter, formed a good part of an en¬ joyable evening. Our third social was a “SCHOOL TRAMP”, which left the girls tired and bruised. It seemed the boys hadn’t for¬ gotten their rugby tactics. After meet¬ ing at the school, the crowd set out west for the prairies, and after an hour or so of tackling and washing faces returned to the school. Hot dogs, doughnuts and cokes were awaiting the ravenous crowd and the rest of the evening was spent in dancing to the music of a band. There was some top-notch entertain¬ ment, supplied by students of the school. The most outstanding feature was the crooning of Jerry Shack and chorus. Valentine’s Day was celebrated by our “LOVER’S LEAP” dance. The red, heart-shaped tickets, on which were printed the names, were worn all even¬ ing. The crowd danced to records sup¬ plied by the T. Eaton Co. Cartoons were shown on the screen and then every¬ one joined in a sing-song of old favor¬ ites. The question “Will you be my valentine?” was heard often through¬ out the evening. Our “FIELD DAY FROLIC’” was a gay event. The track and field stars were very popular all evening. Our beautiful girls and handsome boys were very sunburned after being out all afternoon but nobody seemed to mind it. Everyone had a good time, making this last social a fine climax for the year. The Graduates of Isaac Newton held their dance in our newly-painted audi¬ torium June 14. As usual, the girls looked lovely in their formals and the boys turned out looking as handsome as could be. Music was supplied by Charlie Cruikshank and his orchestra. It was the crowning event of the year and just one more success to add to the list. Besides the School Socials our Alum¬ ni held two dances this year. These had good crowds and were both success¬ ful. The Alumni dances gives the for¬ mer Newtonians a chance to meet their old class-mates and remember the good old days. The Alumni hope to con¬ tinue their social activities and plan more dances in the future as an added attraction for members. 60 Isaac Newton High School M U SIC THE GONDOLIERS ACT I or THE KING OF BARATARIA —by Gilbert and Sullivan The maidens of Venice await the arrival of Marco and Giuseppe Palmieri, the two most popular gondoliers of the city. They refuse to accept the attentions of any others, until these two have chosen their wives. The gentlemen decide to leave the choice to fate, and blind-folded, they catch Tessa and Gianetta. Meanwhile, the Duke of Plaza-Toro, with the Duchess, their charming daughter, Casilda, and attendant Luiz, arrive from Spain, to find the son of the King of Barataria, to whom Casilda was mar¬ ried as an infant. The news of this marriage has been kept secret from Casilda until now; she is shocked, especially as she and Luiz are very deeply in love. The Grand Inquisitor of Spain, Don Alham¬ bra Bolero, explains that the prince was entrusted to the care of a gondolier who died and left the child to the mother of Luiz for whom they have already sent. The wedding of Marco and Tessa, Giuseppe and Gianetta is being celebrated by the gondoliers and their ladies, when Don Alhambra enters and informs them that either Marco or Giuseppe is the son of the King of Barataria. He was married when a child and must now go to a far off isle to rule. Not knowing which is the actual king, Don Alhambra arranges to send both gondoliers, but refuses to let their wives go with them. The act closes with the de¬ parture of all the gondoliers, leaving behind a broken-hearted group of maidens. ACT II In Barataria, the monarchy has been reorganized on Republican principles. The courtiers enjoy all the leisure, while the kings do all the work. The only thing lacking for perfect happiness, is the pleasure of female society. That is provided, with the unexpected arrival of the ladies, who were tired waiting alone. To celebrate their coming, Marco and Guisepoe give a banquet and dance, at which the Cachucha is enjoyed to the full. It is interrupted by Don Alhambra, who is horrified at the form of government. He brings the Duke and Duchess of Plaza-Toro, with Casilda, and arranges for her to meet the two Gondoliers, to one of whom she is married. She tells them of her love for Luiz, and Marco and Guiseppe make her very happy by telling of their marriage. Finally the old nurse arrives at the palace. The story she tells reveals the startling news that the rightful king is Luiz, whom she had substituted with her own son, many years before. The gondo¬ liers are happy to return to their wives and Venice. Luiz and Casilda become King and Queen of Barataria. 62 Isaac Newton High School THANK YOU This year the halls of Newton rang with music. Stirring marches, poignant love songs, gracious gavottes, soaring soprano arias, rollicking choral numbers, all were heard continuously from the beginning of September until the end of Feb¬ ruary; for February 27, 28, and March 1, Isaac Newton High School presented Gilbert and Sullivan’s opera, “The Gondoliers” to capacity audiences at the Play¬ house. Colourful peasant costumes, stately court attire and vivid stage-settings pro¬ vided such a background for the sparkling light opera that the entire audience was transported to Venice, the home of “The Gondoliers.” Miss R. E. McCrum, con¬ ducting the opera, achieved delightful singing from the entire cast, and great praise should be given to Miss C. M. Griffiths, whose directing of movements and dancing was a highlight of the performance. Dramatics and diction were under the direction of Mr. J. Katz and Miss F. Macintyre. Special commendation should be given to Miss H. Gregory, who, as pianist, worked so faithfully and wholeheartedly to make our opera a success, and to the orchestra, which, under the direction of Mr. F. Hubble, provided a beautiful accom¬ paniment to the singing. To all the backstage workers, (the unsung heroes), to every teacher who con¬ tributed time and patience, to every student who sold a ticket, we extend our thanks. Through all their combined efforts, our opera was an outstanding success. Let us hope that there will be many more of these operatic productions in the years to come, as they are a desirable and beneficial form of education.

Cecil Semchyshyn as soloist, assisted by other princi¬ pals from the opera, sang “I Stole the Prince,” and Dorothy Ruppel sang the Duchess’ song, “On the Day When I Was Wedded.” THE MEMORIAL SERVICES During the Memorial Service in Prosvita Hall, November 11, Evelyn Kuchta sang “O Valiant Hearts.” After the two-minute silence had been observed, the girls’ chorus sang “Peace, Perfect Peace.” November 17, at Isaac Newton, the unveiling of the Memorial to the Dead, was held. After the silence was observed, a group of students sang “Peace, Per¬ fect Peace.” Miss Olga Ewaskiw, a former Newton student, sang “Mourn Not for Those,” and preceding the Benediction, the choral group rendered “Ten Thousand Times Ten Thousand.” GRAD UATION EXERCISES The climax of the school year was, of course, Graduation, and on this occasion, the choir, under the direction of Miss R. E. McCrum, sang two selections, which were received most enthusiastically by the audience. The New “SHORT” Coiffure No longer a prediction . . . it ' s the fashion!

Although it has a smaller enrolment than any other high school, the Crimson and Black has gained four well-earned championships in 1946-47. The boys took the Rugby and Senior Basketball crowns, while the girls captured the Senior Volley¬ ball and Senior Basketball laurels. The high standards of co-operation and en¬ thusiasm have been largely responsible for this successful showing. Miss Griffiths, Mr. Avery, Mr. Armstrong, Mr. Pierce and Mr. Klassen deserve much credit for their work in assisting the students in the various sports activities. RUGBY Never before had Newton a team as enthusiastic and co-operative as the Newton Gridders of 1946-1947. Al¬ though they were the lightest team in the league, they possessed the drive and desire that brought them the ultimate championship. Kippy McFayden, the all-star mentor, and Moe Simovitch were the clever coaches that sent the boys through their paces and taught them their dazzling plays. Mr. Arm¬ strong was again the faithful manager. Ritchie Kolisnyk, Yon Konarski, Joe Lucas, Vic Sawiak and A1 Simcoe made the all-star teams that the Winnipeg Newspapers select. Every player was really a star, but the high quality of co-operation within the team was the main factor in their success. For their sensational work, the play¬ ers, coaches and manager received “sharp” red and black leather jackets. To all those concerned with the team go our sincere appreciation and con¬ gratulations. SUMMARY OF RUGBY GAMES NEWTON vs. KELVIN In the opening game of the season, the Nor Westers defeated the Kelvin Clippers by a score of 16 to 1. The Nor’- Westers aerial attack was dazzling; Of the 17 passes attempted, 11 were com¬ pleted and dynamic Vic Sawiak was responsible for 8 of them. A1 Simcoe’s perfect strike to Allan Dryburgh re¬ sulted in a sensational touchdown. Mike Daski made the successful convert. Three points were gained by rouges. Simcoe then flashed around end on a lateral play for another major score. Daski’s convert was good. Nick Station then made a rouge for the final point. Thanks to Yon Konarski, Pete Saw- chuk and Joe Lucas, the front line was solid. NEWTON vs. ST. JOHN ' S In the second game the Nor’Westers blanked the bewildered St. John’s Techmen 25 to 0. Speedy Steve Witiuk and Mike Daski accounted for 17 of the points. Daski chalked up the first 6 points with a successful touchdown and convert. “Brains” Kolisnyk knifed over tackle for the next touchdown. The convert was missed, leaving the score at 11 to 0. Witiuk’s 50-yard sprint for a touchdown around end was a beauty. Daski’s touchdown and A1 Simcoe’s 39- yard field goal ended the game. NEWTON vs. GORDON BELL The fighting Nor’Westers turned back Gordon Bell 13 to 11 in the third game of the thrill-packed season. This game showed fine kicking, passing, running and blocking. After the Gee Bee’s took an early 6-point lead, Witiuk brought the ball to the one-yard line, where hard-hitting Harold Mauthe crashed over the line for the five points. Daski’s neat convert tied the game. After Charlie Sturtz and Harold Mauthe made a phenomenal gain of 60 yards, Sturtz plunged hard for the touchdown. The convert was good, making the score read 13 to 6. Gordon Bell’s uncon¬ verted touchdown ended the game with the score of 13 to 11 for the Crimson and Black. Joe Lucas and “Buggy” McBride were strong on the line, while Chuck Sturtz and Harold Mauthe were very aggressive in the backfield. NEWTON vs. DANIEL MAC In the fourth game of the season, the Nor’Westers defeated D.M.C.I. 12 to 5. Speedy A1 Simcoe went for the first touchdown, which Daski convert¬ ed. Daniel Mac’s touchdown, on a fumble, was their only score of the game. After Joe “Tiger” Lucas snaf¬ fled a fumble, Harold Mauthe smashed A 68 Isaac Newton High School through the opponent’s line for five points. Mike Daski added another suc¬ cessful convert to his extensive record. Daski, Kolisnyk, Simcoe, Sturtz and Dryburgh were the clever groundgain- ers, while Konarski, Lucas, Blanchard and Sawiak were very strong on the line. 3-GAME ROUND-ROBIN SERIES In the first game of the finals, the Nor’Westers were upset by Gordon Bell 8 to 6. The teams played good rugby, although the mud-covered field pre¬ vented any flashing plays. Gordon Bell claimed the first points with an un¬ converted touchdown. Mauthe and Ko- lisnyk brought the ball to Gordon Bell’s seven-yard line. Mauthe went over for the score. Mike Daski booted the convert that added a point and brought his convert total to thirteen out of four¬ teen attempts. Gordon Bell earned a point on a rouge, and a few plays later, they kicked to the deadline for another count, that made the score read 7 to 6. The scoring was concluded by Gordon Bell, who kicked again to the deadline, to make the final score 8 to 6 in their favor. In the closing seconds of the game, Yon Konarski attempted a 40- yard field goal but he couldn’t get enough lift on the wet, muddy ball, and the game was over. Prominent in the game were Mauthe, Kolishyk, Sturtz, Daski, Lucas and Ko¬ narski. NEWTON vs. ST. JOHN ' S TECH In the second game of the finals, New¬ ton defeated St. John’s Tech by a score of 15 to 6. Passes were plentiful dur¬ ing the game and the Nor’Westers proved to be superior in that depart¬ ment. The Nor’Westers rouged a Techman on Kolisnyk’s punt to open the scoring. After throwing several successful passes to Nick “Power” Sta¬ tion, Kolisnyk chucked the ball to Allan Dryburgh on the 45, who went over for a beautiful touchdown. The convert was missed. Versatile “Yon” Konarski then kicked a 31-yard field goal. The Techmen came back with a touchdown and convert to make the score 9 to 6 in Newton’s favor. Charlie Sturtz crashed through the Tech line for the touchdown. Dryburgh proved his kick¬ ing ability when he booted the convert that ended the game. Sturtz, Kolisnyk, Dryburgh and Das¬ ki were the starry backfielders, while Konarski, Lucas and Blanchard rein¬ forced the line solidly. NEWTON vs. GORDON BELL In the last game of the city finals, the battling Nor’Westers gained the city rugby crown by handling the Pan¬ thers a 9 to 6 defeat. Vic Sawiak rouged a Gee Bee for a one-point lead. A dazzling passing play from Mike Daski to Big “Doc” Blanchard soon fol¬ lowed. This was the first touchdown for “driving Doc” and he well deserved it. A1 Simcoe made a neat three-point addition when he kicked a 19-yard field goal. The Panthers’ touchdown and convert ended the scoring. The front wall was almost impenetrable, with such linemen as Konarski, Sawchuk, McBride, Steinhauer, Sawiak and Sta¬ tion clearing the way for the starry quaintet of Sturtz, Mauthe, Dryburgh, Kolisnyk and Daski. PROVINCIAL FINALS St. Paul’s Crusaders were the Norse¬ men’s opposition in the fight for the W. A. Kennedy Trophy, emblematic of provincial rugby supremacy. The game against St. Paul’s was played to a 10- all deadlock. The Newton boys were saved from defeat in the last few min¬ utes of the game by a sensational run of 96 yards by A1 Simcoe, who had re¬ ceived a pass from quarterback Ko¬ lisnyk. A peculiarity of this game was that no converts were made by either team. The game was a very breath¬ taking affair and caused many New¬ ton’s supporters’ hair to turn grey. The Norsemen were determined to stop Cholakis, Depres, et all in the next encounter. The second affair was far different from the first. The Newton boys, spear¬ headed by Mauthe and Simcoe, handily won the game by a score of 9 to 0. Mauthe was the “iron horse” of the game, carrying the ball many times for extensive gains and making at least 50 per cent of the tackles. Bill “Doc” Blanchard scored a rouge for the first point of the game. Kolisnyk inter¬ cepted a Crusader pass, thus giving Newtonian 69 the ball to Newton. After Mauthe and Daski made their respective gains, ag¬ gressive A1 Simcoe scooted around the end for the touchdown. In the last quarter, Simcoe, kicker deluxe, booted a neat 25-yard field goal to end the scoring. Thus, Newton proved their superiority in rugby circles for the season of 1946. SENIOR BASKETBALL This year, the Newton hoopsters again captured the Provincial Crown. The squad, composed of four members of last year’s championship team, three graduated juniors, and three first-year men, ran up an impressive record of ten victories against no defeats. Carl Wozny, the affable basketball star of renown, masterminded the team to their triumphs. The team, as a whole, played smart, aggressive basketball. Under the watchful eyes of Wozny, they formed a stumbling block for all comers. Team personnel is as follows: Ray Charambura—Tall performer, who played steady ball in all the games. Possesses a nice set shot and was one of the main cogs in the zone de¬ fence. Mike Daski—One of the trickiest cagers in the league. Southpaw “Harlem” is a “sure thing” when it comes to scoring field goals. Best shot is from the left-hand side using the back- board. Harold Mauthe (Captain)—Nucleus of most of the scoring plays. Ball hand¬ ler deluxe, who also managed to in¬ ject incentive into the other players. An authority on the game. Allan Dryburgh—Star wing, who com¬ bined brainwork and aggressiveness through the schedule. One of the team’s leading scorers. Steve Witiuk — Craftiness and speed was this kid’s line. Proficient drib¬ bler, often seen scurrying through op¬ ponent’s legs. Couldn’t concentrate on basketball until end of season be¬ cause of hockey duties. Stan Pelechaty — Formidable guard, who performed ably throughout. He plays a stalwart defensive game, as witnessed this season. Improved greatly since his junior basketball days. Len Ewanchuk—Len was the team’s opportunist. Picked up many bas¬ kets when the opponents were nap¬ ping. Dangerous on close-in shots. Richie Kolisnyk — Rocky displayed great promise in every game that he played. He has shown to good ad¬ vantage in his first year of organized basketball. Adept in faking and pass¬ ing. Walter Parobec - This brawny fella teamed up with Harold to form a solid guarding unit. We’ll be hearing more of Walter in sporting circles, as he is only in Grade 10. Accounted for many of the team’s points. Bill Blanchard — This six-foot, three- inch hunk of man was a decided asset to the Newton aggregation. Picked off rebounds with ease. Scored many well-deserved baskets.

When the cagers defeated St. Paul’s 22-17 and 28-16, they were declared provincial champions and earned the right to test their cage skill against Grand Forks. THE GRAND FORKS EXHIBITION GAME The T. Eaton Co. of Winnipeg decided to sponsor a basketball game between the Central High School team of Grand Forks, N.D., and the winners of the provincial title of Manitoba. Our senior boys’ basketball team won the title and met the Nodaks in this exhibition tilt. The U.S. boys took the exhibition game from our boys quite handily. The New¬ ton boys put up a game fight against the cagers from the south but could not cope with their swiftness and ball¬ handling ability. The game was played at the Winnipeg Civic Auditorium and was followed by a dance. Following is a summary of the game. Central High School, Grand Forks, N.D.—Biscke 19, Kopenhaven 1, Bjerke 20, Thompson 2, Simonson 17, Halliday 8, King 2, Schue, Cox, Emerson 8—Total 77.

PETER KALYTA MEMORIAL TROPHY This trophy was donated to the school by a group of former Isaac New¬ ton students in remembrance of Peter Kalyta, who lost his life in the war of 1939-45. This memorial is to be awarded annually to the most outstanding male athlete at Newton. This trophy should serve as great incentive for sportsman¬ ship and leadership in team games. THE ISAAC NEWTON MEMORIAL TROPHY The idea of buying this trophy was thought up by L e n G z e b b, athletic chairman of our school. This trophy is awarded to honor the best female ath¬ lete at Newton. It, too, will be awarded annually. The buying of the trophy was wholly a student project. The funds were garnered by a donation of ten cents from each student. The Junior basketball team generously donated their earnings to this appropriate enter¬ prise. This beautiful trophy will com¬ memorate the service rendered by for¬ mer Newton students in the Second World War. JUNIOR BASKETBALL Mr. Klassen’s wee mites served notice as Newton’s up and coming basketball stars. Although the Junior’s name was not often found in the win column, they showed the “stuff” that is needed to mould a good basketball team. They led the league in total points scored, but were also the team that was scored upon most. Millian Kanuiga—-(centre) Has an or¬ iginal style, shoots fouls with ease. Ernie Tesluk — (right wing — Captain) Opportunist—one of the team’s high¬ est scorers. Jerry Turbovsky — (left wing) Tricky operator, with a good close-in shot.

The Juniors had a fairly successful season, passing and kicking in great style. The team was composed mostly of Grade XI’s, with a few Grade X’s of whom we will be hearing more in the near future. Turbovski, Duplak and Rigby were the notables. The Seniors didn’t have a very successful season due to lack of practice, but had a great time playing together. Their favorite slogan was “We’ll beat them the next game,” but, unfortunately, this never happened. This was Newton’s first year in soccer for many a year, and we hope that our teams will be able to bring home the championship next term. Mr. Avery was the capable coach of both teams.

The Senior girls’ volleyball team gloriously won the Senior Inter-High Volley¬ ball Championship. Not only did they trounce their opponents in all games but they showed expert playing and keen sportsmanship. Under the capable coach¬ ing of Miss Griffiths they once again proved that Newton is the home of Champion volleyball teams. A group of girls from Room 16, who will not be seen in action next year, spirited the team to victory with their endless set-ups and spikes. The girls are: Evelyn B., Jennie F., Dora S., Violet S., Elva W., and Sadie Y. Captain Elva Waslyk deserves a great deal of credit for her smart playing and good sportsmanship, which was shown when every girl on the team was given a chance to do her part on the floor. Dora Shero her team-mate, played excellent ball alongside her. Violet Smith made good use of the set-ups to deliver some wonderful spikes. Some of the Grade eleven girls, whom we hope will be back next year to capture the volleyball crown for Newton, are: Ina Andruskow, Margaret Black, Margaret Dolhun, Helen Lulewick, Josephine Witiuk, Winne Ker- eluk and Marjorie Fedorowski.

Although the Junior girls, coached by Miss Griffiths, did not succeed in win¬ ning the Championship this year, they did, however, play some excellent games, and placed second. The outstanding players of the team were Ruth Bauer, May Nadoryk, Joyce Guyda and little Alexandra Byskal, who showed up very nicely in this, her first year of volleyball. The team was very co-operative, and if they return to play volleyball again next year, there should be another championship team, r.s there is plenty of good material to work with. ♦ CHEERLEADER ' S SQUAD HACK ROW, left to right—L.

The ’47 edition of Isaac Newton’s Girls’ Senior Inter-High basketball team was one of the best this sanctuary of the three R’s has ever produced. This is the first time in Isaac Newton history that the Senior girls have suc¬ ceeded in capturing the Basketball title, and much credit must be given to the able coaching of Harold Mauthe and Mike Daski. The girls won every game they played and walked off the undis¬ puted City Champions, The girls of the Senior team showed sportsmanship, fine co-operation and that fine fighting spirit throughout the whole schedule. The point-getters of the year were Dora Shero and Marge Fedorowski. Elva Waslyk, one of our star players, sprained her ankle in the second game and was out for the rest of the season. Other outstanding play¬ ers were Margaret Dolhun, Evelyn Car¬ rie, Violet Smith, and little Jennie Fe- doruk, who showed her spunk in the final game. June Shaley, Helen Lule¬ wick and Bernice Tkach took turns in replacing Elva in the last two games. Marion Wazny and Margaret Black played excellent ball throughout the series, also. When Harold Mauthe be¬ came ill just before the Newton-Kelvin game, the girls went out with Mike Daski and Miss Griffiths to win the game for him. At the final game, against Gordon Bell, every player had an op¬ portunity to show what they could do, and it was quite evident that they had everything it takes to make a Cham¬ pionship team. The game scores were as follows: Newton (20) vs. Daniel MacIntyre (14). Newton (20) vs. St. John’s Tech (8). Newton (17) vs. Kelvin High (10). Newton (21) vs. Gordon Bell (11). 76 Isaac Newton High School JUNIOR INTER-HIGH BASKETBALL STANDING (left to right)—Leona Wach, Elsie Hutch, Helen Moskal, Joyce Guyda, Stella Golebioski, Bernice Jarem, Helen Martinchuk, Yvonne Oshanek, Harold Mauthe (coach).

Although the score board showed no evidence that the Juniors had a Cham¬ pionship team, there were many fine plays performed, tricky shots and ex¬ cellent dribbling shown. During prac¬ tices, with their two excellent coaches, Harold Mauthe and Mike Daski, they showed up in fine form and had the makings of a championship team. The Juniors won two games, tied two and lost one. Alexandra “Shyne” Bys¬ kal once again showed her fighting spirit when she appeared on the bas¬ ketball floor. The high-scorers of the year were Shirley Oliver and Mary Buchko. Considering that this was their first year at competitive basket¬ ball, the Juniors did not do too badly at all, and we know that many of these fine players will return next year to form the nucleus of a Championship team. The games scores were as follows: Newton (40) vs. General Wolfe (6). Newton (11) vs. Daniel MacIntyre (11). Newton (4) vs. St. John’s Tech (4). Newton (8) vs. Kelvin High (12).

FRONT ROW: Ber¬ nice Tkach, Helen Lulewick, Marge Fedorowski (Captain), Margaret Dolhun, June Kissel. Once again Rooms 11 and 15 com¬ bined to become Inter-room Basket¬ ball Champs. Room 16 placed second in the senior division and Room 3 with third place. In the junior division Room 1 placed first, Room 14 second and Room 19 and Room 8 tied for third. The superior playing of Rooms 11 and 15 was clearly shown when, in the fin¬ als, they defeated Room 1 by a score of 18 to 14. This team was so evenly matched that there was no outstanding player. Margaret Dolhun, the only player from Room 15, proved to be an asset to the team. It was a pleasure to have this team win the School cham¬ pionship for the second consecutive year. ♦ ROOM 16—INTER-ROOM VOLLEYBALL CHAMPS INTER-ROOM VOLLEYBALL CHAMPIONS BACK ROW (left to right) — D. Pawlick, A. Geras, C. McKay, V. Smith, E. Gerlach. FRONT ROW: D. Shero, J. Fedoruk, E. Waslyk. There was unusually keen competi¬ tion in the inter-room volleyball series this year, with no less than twenty teams participating. In the senior divi¬ sion Room 16 finished in first place, while Room 11 and Room 4 tied for sec¬ ond place. In the junior division Room 14 was the victor, while Team A of Room 19 placed second and Team A of Room 9 placed third. Room 16 entered the finals with Room 14, the comparatively young and inexperienced team, and although the Room 14 team fought gamely they were no match against the Room 16 girls, who are masters in the art of handling a volleyball. Thus, Room 16 is the un¬ defeated Inter - Room Volleyball 78 Isaac Newton High School SCHOOL ACTIVITIES Newton Hi-Y The basic principle underlying Hi-Y activities is: service to the school, to the community and to the members. Any student who has the required set standards and who is interested in Hi-Y work may join. The Club meets every other Wednesday evening at the school, and a recreational programme is held every week. The Newton Hi-Y, or¬ ganized only last year, has sent repre¬ sentatives to the following conferences: International Conference at Winnipeg, Canadian Hi-Y National Assembly at Lake Couchiching, Ontario. Represen¬ tatives will also go this spring to the International Conference at Grand Forks. The Public Speaking Club Isaac Newton’s Public Speaking Club, under the able guidance of Mr. Katz, has had a full year. Dick Shouten was elected president and Victoria Rolski secretary. Although Dick is standing president, a new chairman is chosen every week, according to alphabetical order. Realizing that the ability to speak in public is an important asset to any boy or girl the club has en¬ deavoured to enable interested stu¬ dents to acquire this ability, and in the end to become fine public speakers. Greater Winnipeg Youth Council This organization is a co-ordinating body to promote understanding and co¬ operation among the youth groups of the communitv. Representatives of all races and religions, take part in na¬ tional and international youth activi¬ ties, assist community-serving projects, sponsor an annual ethnic concert, dis¬ cuss and take action on youth problems, but do not interpret controversial, reli¬ gious, or political matters. Assistance is given the Community Chest and local institutions. Isaac Newton’s two representatives are Shirley Oliver, Room 19, and Jerry Shack, Room 15. The Alumni Association The purpose of the Alumni Associa¬ tion is to give Newton Graduates an opportunity to serve the community, the school, and to direct associations of collegiate days into further chan¬ nels of service and friendship. Gradu¬ ates, who partake in the work of this organization, can lead the community to better provision for education, so¬ cial and spiritual needs. The officers of the Association are as follows: President - Andrew Okrusko Vice-President - Orest Hykaway Secretary - Shirley Anderson Treasurer - Ted Homenuk Project Committee - J. Katz Auditorium Periods This year, as in other years, the Stu¬ dents’ Council undertook to provide the students of the school with entertain¬ ment in the form of Auditorium periods. These assemblies were held approxi¬ mately twice a month, with the Grade X’s going down in one period and the Grade XI’s and XII’s in another. The object of the Students’ Council in organizing these was to provide the pupils with a “break” in the monotony of their school work. The Auditorium periods this term consisted chiefly of talks by outside speakers, and movies provided through the efforts of Mr. Lind. Two enjoyable productions were also put on by the Junior and Senior Dramatic Clubs, under the capable di¬ rection of Mr. Robson. Red Cross Since the year 1876, when the first conference of the association known as the Red Cross took place in Paris, people all over the world have looked to this national organization for refuge in time of war and in time of peace. During the last World War everyone “pitched in” to aid the devastated and war-torn countries. Now, in time of peace, the ravages of war are still felt in many parts of the world. Isaac Newton has donated $150 to the Red Cross as well as the parcels which each room sent at Christmas time. At the present moment knitted articles of clothing are being made and sent to the Netherlands. Miss Hazel¬ wood is in charge. June Shaley, Ray¬ mond Hersley and Norman Coleman are (continued on pueje S3 j so Isaac Newton High School LITERARY AND STILL SHE STANDS I don’t know what it was that caused me to loathe the house. And yet, every- time I saw it, a sensation of fear passed through my body. Hatred crept into my soul and my thoughts were only those of destruction. The structure stood on the crest of a hill, decrepit and old. The noon day sun beat down on the shrivelling boards with relentless fury. The wind, the rain, the sleet, in fact all the elements of nature, combined to wipe this tat¬ tering wreckage off the face of the earth. But the more the wind and the rain strove for destruction, the strong¬ er the house seemed to get ... as if in defiance, as if some unknown force was compelling it to withstand the torrents. There it stood, a challenge to nature and to man. Twilight came, and night, the saint of sinners, the haven of lovers, stole in and enveloped the countryside like a thick blanket. Darkness, ever¬ lasting darkness, descended over the house. The moon rose, pale and waning, its rays casting a dull and eerie lustre over the earth. I came across the house one night while going for a walk. I decided to get some fresh air, so started to walk up the hill, beyond the village. Sud¬ denly I saw it, standing there, as if in defiance to the entire world. A burn¬ ing hatred crept into me. Why, I don’t know. I was filled with an unexplain¬ able desire to destroy it. I ran home, determined to rid myself of the enmity towards this house. The next night I went again. It had been raining out and the grass was wet and slippery. I saw the house in the distance. It seemed to be enveloped in a shimmering light. I stopped as my hatred increased. I made up my mind to destroy the house forever ere it drove me into the realms of insanity. A week later I went again with some gas and a torch. This was an oppor¬ tune moment. Before anybody could reach the blaze, it would be over. I was satisfied. My mind was completely at ease. How cleverly I poured the gaso¬ line over the ground. How skilfully I manipulated the tin container. As I was about to light the torch and forever remove this grotesque picture from my mind, a strange feeling came over me. A sensation which I am powerless to ex¬ press entered my body. My hand quiv¬ ered. The wind moaned through the broken windows. The house seemed to speak, to ask me not to destroy it. I felt queer all over. Passion — there was none. Hatred — all my hatred for the house was spent. The torch fell out of my hand. I stood there motionless. A tear crept into the corners of my eyes. Everything was getting blurred. I saw—rather I vision¬ ed—strange beings dancing in shim¬ mering light beside the house. The strains of soft, melodious music filled the air. Then I became dizzy. My head reeled. I felt myself falling, falling into some vast abyss, falling into obscurity. When I awoke, I was lying on the ground. The house cast a shadow of gloom over me as I lay there. I tried to stand up, but my legs felt like butter. I desperately tried to rise. At last I was on my feet. Looking around, I saw the lights of the village. They seemed to beckon, to call to me. I start¬ ed to walk, slowly at first. Then an un¬ easy feeling came over me and I quick¬ ened my pace. I turned around, unconsciously, I guess, and suddenly I saw a strange thing. Fear gripped me. I was in a state of frenzy. My pulse beat irregularily. The blood rushed to my head. The same queer feeling as before, enveloped me. I seemed to hear the wind howling in the distance. It was steadily growing louder. I imagined strange and fascinating things. I seem¬ ed to be floating, forever falling. Bells were ringing in the distance. I saw circles. They grew larger. They turned and twisted into fantastic shapes. They seemed to be ail around me, hounding, following me. I—I was walking, run- Newtonian 81 ning, I don’t know which. Slowly, slow¬ ly, I was losing my mind. “Oh God, have mercy on me!” I rubbed my eyes and looked again. Yes, the house was gone. Years have passed since that incident. Yet I am still tortured, torment ed by that memory. Many times I ventured up that hill. Many times I searched GOING In the community in which I grew up, only our native tongue was spoken, with the result that I knew not one word of English when I started going to school. I remember to this day, my utter confusion and surprise when one of my playmates informed me that a stomach-ache was an ailment, not a kind of cake ... In winter, when my dad was unemployed, he would take my sister and me to school on a home¬ made sled. One particular day was in¬ tensely cold, with a blistering wind that swept the loose, surface snow across miles of prairie, and whipped the ragged clouds across the grey back¬ ground that was the sky. Mom bundled my sister and me into the sled, and we ventured out against the wind with Dad. I was sitting at the back of the sled and somehow, along the way, I slid onto the snow-covered road. I saw Dad and sled fade slowly into the distance, but I was too paralyzed with fear to move or cry out. Dad told Mom, later, that he wondered why the sled had become so much lighter, and that when he stopped to see if the girls were well covered, he became quite panic-stricken at seeing only one child under the blan¬ ket. Running back along the road, he found me squatting on the snow and on the verge of tears. After being com¬ forted by our doting parent, my sister and I were delivered at the school with¬ out further mishap . . . As I grew older, I begged the older girls to let me carry their books to school, for their contents fascinated me. Soon I was boasting to neighbors that I was in the grade where they were studying “literature.” It seemed such a long word to me, and was so sugges¬ tive of hard work, and much study and glamour, that I thought the neighbors would think I must be a girl quite ad¬ vanced for my years to be allowed to for the house . . . but in vain. It seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth. I made inquiries. I asked people who had lived in the district all their lives. I always received the same answers. “House, what house? You must be imagining things.” —Barney Gorenstein. BACK study such a difficult subject . . . One Saturday evening, I decided to go and see my father at the site where he was helping to build a new church. I sauntered off with just a faint idea of the direction in which I had to travel, and quite unaware of the exact loca¬ tion. I don’t remember anything after leaving the house, but Mom has often told me about the anxiety and worry that my disappearance caused. Mom, Dad and all the neighbors went out to look for me, and the police, too, were asked to help in the search. Finally, one of my neighbors found me sitting in a drugstore window. The proprietor had stuffed me with chocolates and ice¬ cream, to prevent my crying, and had placed me in the window, so that I could be taken home by anyone who might recognize me . . . I remember other things, too, as a little girl—how I hit the neighbor’s daughter on the knee with a huge stone, then fled and hid in a deep irrigation ditch, until I was discovered at supper- time. I was a very repentant child when I was informed that the girl couldn’t even kneel to say her pray¬ ers. I felt I had done a great wrong, and thought that God would never for¬ give me. I remember how, one night, I woke with a start to see my grand¬ mother, who had passed away, stand¬ ing at the foot of my bed. Summoning all my courage, I bent to touch her, and found it was only my Dad’s shirt play¬ ing a trick on my eyes . . . I recall many other incidents of my childhood, but they are too many, and some are too intimate to reveal. No one can ever tell me that my life is dull or uninteresting. No one’ life is. Just delve into the dark interior of your mind and dust the cobwebs from your secret Book of Memories and “go back.” Mary Bodnarchuk-Rm. 7. 82 Isaac Newton High School HUMANIST Look for a moment with Death’s perspective scope, Her rounded circumferences, her convex senses, Seeing him not through the coarse world’s virtual lenses, But, probing past the clouded imagry, The widening breach of earth, Behold him for what he was, unbound by creed, Color or birth. For well he bore and justified in Man, Man’s failure to act as God’s exemplary, Stretching the measure of compassionate love Beyond capacity. And well as he knew the taste of ridicule, Bitter as aloe stinging the curled tongue’s hollow, Yet should Death loose his hand, and set him free, Back would he follow. Worn from the nagging maggot’s malicious jibes, Jealous bone and rival soul disputing, Quietly now he closes earth’s lid down, Deaf to the guns’ saluting; Dead to the tinny whimperings, the jangled sobs, The pompous oratory at length bewailing Full detailed census of his servitude, Full census of his failing; So, even now, his judgment unreserved, Concedes their praises, their righteous blasphemy, That floods across his body in a sea Of angry voices; breaks, beats down the door Of his closing mind; the walls of his body’s house. Even now, in accord With the spiced sheet that seals, that laps him round, Earth’s shaken with the piteous human sound That swells, that rises from the shattered ground, In words of grief outpoured: “Forgive them for they know not what they say. Forgive them, Lord.” —Myra Lazeczko Haas. THE PLANT Each flow’r, each leaf has been designed By God, the Master workman. He drew the plans, arranged each stalk, Tinting every petal purple, He called the sun, and cast its rays Upon the growing, greenish stems. And when each flower was in bloom, We took the plant and placed it In our home, that we might gaze When winter storms raged near, Upon this masterpiece of God. Corinne Langston (18). A SMALL PRAYER “Oh, what shall I do?” I asked one day, And Margaret smiling, as t’was her way When seeing me idle, or deep in despair, Said, “Why don’t you sit down and and write God a prayer?” “Tell Him,” she said, “about the earth, Tell Him of laughter and joy and mirth, Tell Him of rivers, mighty and wide, Splashing and crashing on either side. Tell Him of lazy, limpid, lakes, With nought but the motion a fairy makes. And God will be happy to hear you tell About all the flowers that grow in the dell. Oh, picture the sky, so vast, so blue, The sun’s first rays and the morning dew, Tell Him of kittens and spaniel pups And dandelions yellow, and buttercups. Show God the fields full of yellow corn, And the man with his scythe in the early morn. And mention the horses who patiently wait For a brisk rubdown and the pasture gate. Tell Him of spring with the bird’s return, And the graceful arch of the lacy fern. Tell Him the sound of a drowsy rain As it trickles a path down the window pane And when you have finished, it seems to me, Newtonian 83 You ought to thank God, you can hear and see.” “But Margaret, “I cried in my childish way “That isn’t a prayer, it’s just a ‘say.’ ” She, patting my head, (I was only ten) Said, “You’re right. We’d forgotten to say ‘Amen.’ ” Corinne Langston (18). GUEST I shall lay my table with sweet warm hay, And a cloth of white. There, light a candle at our Mary’s white dove feet; There, lay my Sword Upon the silent heart of God, my Lord. He shall be guest, and He shall eat with me. There shall be fish, set in a bowl, pearl-white, And yellow pears in a dish of yellow light; And purple-clustered grapes, SCHOOL ACTIVITIES (Continued from Page 78) members of the Junior Red Cross Council. The Dramatic Clubs This year Mr. Robson supervised the Junior Dramatic Club and Miss Mac- intyre the Senior Club. During the course of the year two Comedies were presented for the school’s entertain¬ ment in the Auditorium Periods. The Junior play was directed by Libby Kolt and the Senior play by Olga Ya- remko, who was assisted by Margaret Black Del Placentine was in charge of stag properties. Rehearsals were held at the early hour of 8 a.m., which, perhaps, accounted for the falling asleep of some students during the course of a day’s school work. During rehearsal many moans, terrible wailing, hysteri¬ cal laughter, and groans could be heard issuing from Room 10. These clubs, however, were very successful in their productions.

Joan Sagar - Vicki Rolski Every Tuesday, at 7.30 p.m., a group of enthusiastic ’teen-agers meet at New¬ ton to play games, take part in educa¬ tional discussions, and to do handicraft. They are members of the Isaac New¬ ton Tag-Y, a Y.W.C.A. group. The club members first of all take part in whatever sport they find ap¬ pealing to them. When their energy is spent they all troop upstairs to hold a business meeting. Reports on Y ac¬ tivities are given and then ’Teen-age Council suggestions are discussed. After the meeting is adjourned handi¬ craft is brought out, or the girls discuss topics that interest them. All socials are planned and carried out by the girls themselves. The girls look forward with enthu¬ siasm to these weekly meetings, and derive much good from their associa¬ tion with other girls of their own age who partake in the same interests as themselves. 84 Isaac Newton High School SUNSHINE SKETCHES DF A HAPPY SCHUUL DICK SCHOUTEN As president of Newton, this blonde, blue-eyed lad has made this one of the Council’s most success¬ ful years. His foresight and determination have proved invaluable in the attainment of the objectives. He also holds position of assistant editor of the year¬ book, and is 50% of the lovelorn editor of Nor-Wester. Earlier in the year, he displayed his athletic talents on the basketball floor. His high scholastic standing, and his participation in all school activities, plus his natural friendly personality won him the coveted Governor-General’s Medal, emblematic of all- around accomplishment. Congratulations, Dick! No one deserves it more. BASIL FURGALA This dark, handsome lad was one of the brightest stars in our memorable operetta. His remarkable tenor voice won him praise from all, as he sang the role of Marco Palmieri. His rendition of “Take a Pair of Sparkling Eyes” won him ovation after ova¬ tion. However, he maintains he is not interested in a musical career, but prefers civil engineering, which he intends to study at the U. of M. Incidentally, his talents are not confied to the field of music but ex¬ tend to the field of sport, for he starred on Newton’s rugby team and on the Excelsior Hockey team. LEONARD GZEBB This blonde lad will forever be remembered in the annals of Newton history, for it is he who first con¬ ceived the idea of presenting an Athletic Trophy to Newton’s best all-round athlete, and it is his relent¬ less energy and determination that carried the scheme to completion. He is now chairman of the Athletic Committee, a member of the “N” Awards Committee, and room sports, he starred on the junior boys’ bas¬ ketball team, coaches a baseball team at Faraday school, and plays for the Elmwood Giants during the summer. The choice of vocation wavers between be¬ coming a pro. baseball player and a sports-writer. DORA SHERO Short, cute Dora Shero of Room 16, a young lass with personality plus, is the energetic secretary of the Students’ Council. She lends her varied literary (and other?) talents to the notorious “Snooper” col¬ umn and “Class-ee Talk” of the Nor’Wester. Not to be outdone in the field of athletics, Dora starred on the senior girls’ championship volleyball and basket¬ ball teams. Outside of school, her athletic interests extend to the C.U.A.C. Senior Girls’ Softball team and the ’Pegs basketball squad. Her present participation in sports is prophetic of her future, for Dora hopes to make a name for herself in the professional girls’ softball league. Newtonian 85 MARY BODNARCHUK Newton’s charming vice-president. This tall, wil- lowly, husky-voiced blonde is as versatile as the weather. Her positions of assistant editor of the Nor- Wester and Grade XII write-up editor on the year¬ book staff are evidence of her literary leanings while her activities as president of the Girls’ Glee Club show she is just as interested in music. On the other hand, she is also a sports enthusiast, and was a mem¬ ber of the Champion Girls’ Volley-Ball team. In spite of her many accomplishments Mary has but one aim in life — to become a perfect wife. While preparing for this career, she hopes to teach, and we know she’ll succeed. ketball student. ALLAN DRYBURGH Tall, dark and handsome, Allan is an all-round stu¬ dent and athlete. His positions at Newton are so nu¬ merous, we can only list them (due to limited space). He’s editor of this anniversary yearbook, one-half of Abigail O’Heartbeat, lovelorn editor of the Nor’West- er, co-chairman of the Graduation Committee, ex¬ chairman of the Social Committee, a member of the Boys’ Glee Club, Room 16’s President, and one of Newton’s Representatives on Eaton’s Junior Execu¬ tive. He also captained the championship rugby team and starred with the senior boys’ championship bas- squad. Besides this active interest in all school activities, he is an honor His main objective in life is to die—a millionaire, that is. JUNE SHALEY An exceptional Grade XI Matriculation scholar who has gained recognition in sports and various school activities. June’s limitless energy also gave her the position of editor of the Nor’Wester, assistant editor of the Newtonian, co-chairman of the Graduation Committee and the school representative on the Junior Red Cross Council. Her engaging personality and winning smile places her well up on the popu¬ larity poll, where she has won many friends, both among the students and teachers. Through her pro¬ gressiveness and determination the students received a larger and better school newspaper. You can be sure that your untiring efforts will not go unappre¬ ciated, June. JOHN KOZIE “Jack of all trades” but, contrary to the old pro¬ verb, master of ALL. He is in charge of the Candid Section of the Newtonian and assisted greatly in the taking of the graduates’ individual pictures. At our dances, this blonde, blue-eyed young man can be seen running the P.A. system. He also runs the film pro¬ jector when necessary. Next year he hopes to take Science at the U. of M in preparation for a career in the field of Scientific Research. 86 Isaac Newton High School H U M O R The question of graduation came be¬ fore the school council. Allan D.:—“I am in favour of a safe and sound thirteenth of June.” Mr. Floyd:—“So am I. We ought to have that kind of day at least once a year.” Marg. F.: “Did you get much out of Economics when you were at Newton?” Grad: “Three frat pins and a hus¬ band.” “John,” asked Mr. Pearce, “did you steal the examination papers?” “No, Sir, Mr. Pearce, not me. I only took it for a joke.” How far did you carry it?” “Only from the school to my house— ’bout four blocks.” “Two hours’ detention,” Mr. Pearce sighed, “That was carrying a joke too far.” Donna B.: “Men are all alike.” Marg. P.: “Yeah, men are all I like, too!” Mother: “What did you do with your allowance?” Gogol: “Well, I spent a dollar shoot¬ ing pool, a dollar on poker, a dollar on taxi fare, a dollar on a girl.” Mother: “But that’s only four dol¬ lars. What happened to the other dol¬ lar?” Gogol: “I must have spent that fool¬ ishly.” Judge: “I’ll let you off with a fine today but the next time I’ll send you to jail.” Buggy: (driver of the I.O.F. Heap): “Sort of a weather forecaster aren’t you?” Judge: “What do you mean?” Buggy: “Why, fine today — cooler tomorrow.” Mr. Armstrong: “Here it is Monday and tomorrow will be Tuesday and the next day Wednesday—the whole week half gone and nothing done yet.” Dentist: “Before beginning my work I must have my drill.” Ray Ch.: “Good heavens, man!

The patient, however, protested: “But the other time when I came to see you, you insisted I must eat only a very light supper in the evening.” The Physician nodded. “Yes, of course —that shows what great progress the science of medicine is making.” wtmm gNTATION FTr V V | 1 — See anyone you I know? 2—Boo to you j too! 3—You can’t win, I Mr. Babb. 4—Need we | say more? 5—Snooping on the Snoop(er). 6— Looks good, anyhow. 7— Button, button, who has got the football? 8— War Memorial Ser¬ vice. 9—Bet you can’t ride it, too. 10—A la maison par the Aber- I deen Bus. 11—Over the top. 12—Naughty, naughty. 13 — Up, up, and away. 14—W hat have you got to be so proud of? 15—Vox-Pop Gresham. 16—I wonder . . . does it work? 17— Note the form! 18—I gotcha, Jack. 19—Going up or coming down? 20—Senior Inter - High Basketball Champs. 21—A few of the bagle boys. 22—“The Thinker” . . . 24—The only one we didn’t win 25—Lots of oomph, huh that time. 28—Those aren’t the sands of time, bub!

Paed T HIS year we bid farewell to our Principal. It is rather fitting that the departure of the man who has done so much for the school and the community should coincide with the twenty-fifth anniversary of Isaac Newton High. Arthur Edgar Floyd, native of King’s County, New Brunswick, began his education in a one-roomed rural school. Later he was sent to Boston, Mass., where he attended graded public schools. At the age of seventeen he took Normal training at Frederickton, N.B., and taught for six years. He then entered the University of New Brunswick in the Arts course, and graduated in 1912, winner of the Asa Dow Scholarship. After gradua- Newtonian 89 tion he served as Principal of grammar schools at Woodstock and Bath- hurst, N.B., and from there he accepted appointment to Sutherland School at Saskatoon, Sask. He came to Winnipeg in 1915 as Principal of the Gladstone School, and for a time taught Latin in Kelvin High School. In 1917 he took an M.A. degree in Political Economy at Manitoba University. In 1926 he assumed the Principalship of Luxton Junior High, where he served for twelve years. In 1927 he secured a Bachelor of Pedagogy at Toronto University. For the last nine years he has been Principal of Isaac Newton High School. Mr. Floyd has always been interested in high standards for the teach¬ ing profession, and in improved, forward-looking methods in Education. He was the first President of the Winnipeg Men’s Local of the Manitoba Teachers’ Federation, and was President of the Schoolmasters’ Club. He has served on numerous committees connected with educational matters. He came to Newton in September, 1938, and in short order students and teachers realized that they were dealing with a man of boundless energy and initiative—a human dynamo. He began at once to organize a rugby club and that very season saw Newton’s first attempt on the gridiron. The next innovation was the creation of an elective Student- Council. The library needed attention, and he attacked the problem with such vigor that today Newton boasts one of the finest collections of read¬ ing material in Manitoba. Due to his persistent efforts Domestic Science and Art departments were set-up in the School, and a Grade XII Com¬ mercial was added to the course. Music and Operetta flourished, and Mr. Filmer Hubble’s services were secured to train our orchestra. In ’46 Mr. Floyd introduced international competition in basketball to Win¬ nipeg, bringing the North Dakota State champions here to play our boys. A men’s rest-room was provided, Parr street was paved, beautiful pic¬ tures were hung on the walls and the latest in films and movies were introduced. Countless visits were made to parents, especially during the war years, and a splendid Memorial was designed and set-up in the main hall to the memory of those who had given their lives in the struggle for freedom. Perhaps his most significant contribution was the establish¬ ment of the Isaac Newton Scholarships—courses provided by the school to aid worthy students to carry on their education. This is the stark outline of the career of Arthur Edgar Floyd, teacher, educationist and humanitarian. It does not tell the full story—the years of earnest toil, the constant preparation for ever greater tasks, the in¬ domitable will, the complete conquest of self and the mastery in his chosen field of endeavor that have characterized the man. Nor does it tell of his all-embracing charity, his kindliness, his tolerance and forbearance, his patience with the weakness and foibles of human nature, his broad outlook on life, his deep sympathy for and unbounded confidence in youth. During his years of service at Newton he has provided wise, inspiring leadership, able administration and kindly help to all. By precept and conduct he has at all times shown the way to the fuller and more abundant life, and in those who have worked with him, in the students and in the people of the community he has engendered deep feelings of respect, loyalty and affection. In bidding him farewell we express the earnest hope that his life will be one of full and fruitful years, and that he will continue to give of his talents, as he has in the past, to worthy causes and to the benefit of humanity. Fare thee well; The elements be kind to thee and make Thy spirits all of comfort. so Isaac Newton High School HONOR STUDENTS GRADE XII Esther Gerlack 94.8 Dorothy Pawlik 90.7 Elva Waslyk 92.7 Violet Smith . . 86.5 Allan Dryburgh 91.6 Lucy Chrzanowski . 84.5 GRADE XI June Shaley 92.3 Zanny Bakun 88.0 Josephine Miller 87.9 Susan Schlamb 85.2 Marie Salamanski 85.0 Sarah Serlin 85.0 June Ridge 83.7 Irma Giesbrecht 83.2 Monica Mayer 83.2 George Haywood . 82.3 Glen Carter 82.0 John Borlenchuk 81.0 Winnie Kurelek 80.9 Margaret Dolhun 80.4 Pauline Diamond 80.3 Betty Carter 80.2 Agnes Dueck 80.0 Marie Melnyk 80.0 GRADE X Betty Lewicki 91.5 Genevieve Stark 88.0 Harvey Zindler 84.3 Fred Lee 83.4 William Fedoruk 82.8 Bill Phillips 82.8 Bernice Zelinski 82.0 Richard Kahl 82.0 Ed.
