Kelvin High School - Kelvin Yearbook (Winnipeg, Manitoba Canada)

Text from Pages 1 - 168 of the 1970 volume:

THIS 50TH EDITION OF “CHERRY AND GREY” IS DEDICATED TO World Peace KELVIN HIGH SCHOOL WINNIPEG, MANITOBA 1969-1970 This “golden” anniversary edition of “Cherry and Grey” has tried to capture the many moods of Kelvinites and their activities throughout the past year. There is no purposeful concentration on one single activity be it student government, athletics or of a scholastic nature; but rather an interaction of these activities and how they involve Kelvinites as a whole. A glance through these pages and you will see a small core of students whose faces reappear time and time again in a variety of activities. “Apathy” is not a new word, it has been around for centuries. People who are in¬ volved and “busy” always have the time to undertake something else or participate in one more activity because they MAKE more time. These are your leaders and unfortunately participators as well. People today are often more concerned with universal activities which affect mankind as a whole including all Kelvinites. This may be a good or a bad thing but we feel that it is relevant and thus our dedication to World Peace. Although the pressure of deadlines and the vast amount of material to collect and sort has been at times trying, I have assembled this yearbook with a great deal of help from a relatively small assortment of students and faculty. We have enjoyed this edition of “Cherry and Grey” and we hope you do tool Respectively Submitted 4 Awards VALEDICTORIAN GOVERNOR-GENERAL MEDAL DUX SCHOLARSHIP AWARDS DUX CITIZENSHIP AWARDS KELVIN JUBILEE SCHOLARSHIPS KELVIN JUBILEE BURSARIES GILBERT MEMORIAL BURSARY CHARTERED ACCOUNTANCY PRIZE CAROLE ISAAC MEMORIAL SCHOLARSHIP ISAAC-MACDONALD MEMORIAL TROPHY PRESIDENT’S MEDAL SCHOOL BOARD AND SCHOOL PRIZES GRADE XII UNIVERSITY ENTRANCE GENERAL First: John MacPherson First: Second: Derek Longfield Theresa Churko (Tied) David Martin Second: Fourth: Craig Hunter James McCulloch GRADE XI First: Nancy Bowman First: Second: Christopher Guest Paul Carpenter Third: Jack Hammond Second: (Tied) Debra Olenick Emilio Tacchio GRADE X First: Susan Bowman First: Second: June Kohut Jeffrey Pruden Third: James Cohen Second: Fourth: Jeffrey Jonasson Peter Vogels Charles Hayter Charles Hayter Jill Kernahan Duncan Snidal Barbara Lay Tim Stuart Duncan Snidal tiedP erek Longfield 60 (David Martin Laurie Hazelwood tiedJJ° hn Ewin S uea £Vadim Kobasew Elinor Lawson John MacPherson Ellen Poon Diana Flintoft Ross Flintoft Sue Morrow Administration Vice principals Mr. Kallos and Mr. C. F. Smith Kelvin in the 70’sl Who can resist the tempta¬ tion to make a few predictions? The crystal ball is too cloudy to forecast what will happen at our school during this decade, but it does show a few outlines of what can happen — if Kelvinites are prepared to commit themselves to the twin goals of quality education and selective involvement. By “quality education” I mean learning in depth with respect to the courses a student se¬ lects for his personal program — with acceptance of “mastery of fundamentals” rather than “per¬ centage performance” as the criterion for credit in a particular course. (Correlatively, each subject area will need to have several levels or phases to provide for the wide range of abilities found in any school population; and students will need to become increasingly skilled in selecting the components of their personal educational programs year by year.) Thus, the concept of the “average student”, on which so much educational plan¬ ning has been based in past decades, may well make way in the 70’s for the practical recognition of the uniqueness of each individual. The second objective, “selective involvement”, presumes more active participation of students in the planning and operation of the instructional program. This implies improved staff-student communication at several levels: for example, through special committees on curriculum, meth¬ odology, and evaluation; through a continuing liaison committee: and through a greater role for the student in the evaluation of his own prog¬ ress. The student is thus involved in matters of primary importance. With much greater ease than in the 60’s, students should be able to make the “consumer point of view” a vital part of educational plan¬ ning; but this type of progress will require stu¬ dents to substitute positive concern and coopera¬ tion for negative apathy and antagonism. “Quality education” and “selective involve¬ ment” are worthy challenges for staff and stu¬ dents at Kelvin; and all are invited to add them to their personal platforms for improving the schools of the 70’s. 72-.— 9 Mr. Baluta Mr. Borland Arnott Glascow Miss Griffiths vdrs.

SHEWFELT Mr. Shewfelt is leaving us this year to retire from the teaching profession. He will continue to reside in Winni¬ peg. He has been teaching for 47 years with 16 years spent educating Kelvinites. He received his degree at the Uni¬ versity of Manitoba. Before coming to Kelvin he was principal in Brandon. Mr. Shewfelt has no special hobbies but is interested in gardening. He feels that Kelvin kids are a “good bunch” for he goes on and says that “you can always pick a Kelvin girl out of an audience or a group for they look special and like Kelvinites.” He has found that the boys as well as the girls are “courteous and respectful.” Mr. Shewfelt is known to have one of the “biggest hearts” in Kelvin. MR. PICKARD For approximately one-half of his teaching career, Mr. Pickard has served the students of Kelvin. Mr. Pickard, who teaches Physics, has decided to retire after twenty years at Kelvin. Mr. Pickard’s career began forty-three years ago when he taught at a country school in Saskatchewan. Immedi¬ ately following a principalship, at another Saskatchewan school, Mr. Pickard spent four years at the University of Manitoba where he received his teaching certificate. After teaching at The Pas he again became a principal, this time at the Souris Collegiate. And for the last thirty-two years Mr. Pickard has taught in Winnipeg schools, first Gordon Bell then at Lord Selkirk and finally at Kelvin where he taught in Kelvin’s luckiest room, room seven. Mr. Pickard’s interests range from stamp and coin col¬ lections to still life and movie photography but Mr. Pickard’s main interest is 200 miles from Winnipeg. Three years ago Mr. Pickard purchased a cottage at Long Lake where he plans to spend the greater part of each year fishing, hunting, and canoeing. But during the coldest months Mr. Pickard and his wife intend to travel south by trailer. Because of his constant help and devotion to the needs of the students of Kelvin High School Mr. Pickard will always be remembered. On behalf of all your students, we extend our very best wishes for the future. 14 In Memoriam Miss J. Carey Taught at Kelvin 1943-1967 President’s Message Unsuitable to Faculty: CENSORED! 16 Student Council Constitutional Revision Committee This committee met at noon for two weeks in October attempting to reorganize the Kelvin con¬ stitution. The ammendments were not typed but were left to sit in the bottom of someone’s locker until the middle of April. They were finally hand¬ ed into Mr. Thompson but they were too late for sufficient discussion to take place. Present plans are to change the constitution completely by draw¬ ing up a new draft next fall. 17 Student Council Committees TELEPHONE BOOK COMMITTEE As in previous years, we have tried to publish as correct and complete a directory as possible. We hope you realize the many functions which this handbook per¬ forms. It serves as an ordinary telephone book and is also of great assistance when searching for such common names as Smith. We hope that the publication has been a great benefit to you during the year. THE EDITORS SALES COMMITTEE 1969-1970 The Sales Committee this year sold only 24 T-shirts and 12 rings of the same design as last year. Ordered in December the rings and T-shirts arrived in early March but confusion about bills with our supplier were not recti¬ fied until April. One hundred beanies were purchased in October and there will be a large carryover of beanies for next year. The poor sales this year are attributed mainly to the fact that last year sales were high and the Grade Tens were the only possible new buyers. Although not infatuated with his chairmanship Jay Stuart thoroughly enjoyed the accompanying seat on the student council. 18 PEP CLUB As chairman of the Pep Club for ’69-70, my last year at Kelvin, I could say has been great! Unfortunately, many of the students feel that the importance of reform highly outweighs that of school spirit, and they do not realize that you can’t have one without the other. Due to lack of interest, on the part of the students, our one Pep Rally was a flop. But we must give credit to those students who co-operated so fully in making posters and announcements which aided in the promotion of the many school activities. School spirit was not entirely lacking this year but just buried behind the cry for reform. And it is the hope that, with a strong leadership, school spirit will rise to a peak in the years to come. We have the potential, but we just need the initiative. SOCIAL COMMITTEE This year has been an undeterminable success. The Social Committee introduced Coffee Houses for the first time in any High School and held three of them throughout the year. They were smashing successes and had top entertainment at all of them. The Annual Freshie Dance and Revolution ’70 (held in conjunction with the program committee) were great. The Freshie Dance started off rather rowdily, but was topped off with the crowning of Queen Kim O’Brien. Revolution ’70 was held in place of a winter carnival and featured many great and varied interests such as war films, Soc¬ cer films, debates, basketball games, drama club presen¬ tations, a sock-hop, a hootenanny and pizza sale, a talk with members of the penal Institution of Manitoba and it was finished with a massive Coffee House. THE PROGRAM COMMITTEE This committee consisting of Nancy Backhouse and anyone else she could happen to round up attempted to organize all special events that came up, (e.g. Revolution ’70) along with the tradi¬ tional events such as Remembrance Day and Christmas Capers. 19 Valedictory Speech The word “valedictory” finds its roots in the Latin “vale” meaning farewell, and “dicere,” to say. We say farewell today to three years at Kelvin High School, and indeed to twelve years in school. For those who have yearned for an elusive “freedom” and who have eagerly awaited the responsibilities of adult life, it is a glad farewell. For others, who have become attached to the people, events, and accomplishments of the past, it is a sad farewell. Yet this farewell marks not so much a good-bye to Kelvin and to school as a departure from one phase of our life. Men through the ages have talked of life as a series of stages which leads man to a final destiny. We are leaving behind one stage of youth. But in order to depart from each phase of life meaningfully it is necessary to have accomplished some¬ thing — to have attained a goal. In youth this goal can be a broadening of the mind and outlook, a deep¬ ening of experience and feeling, and a responsibility in words and deeds which leads to a measure of maturity in the individual. Maturity takes as many forms as there are people in the human race. Each of us must discover it in his own personal way and weave it into the pattern of his own life. For some, maturity means strength. Strength to stand up for one’s convictions and ideas and support them no matter how hard the forces of opposition blow. Strength of will — to do only what you conceive is right, never fearing that the will of others can be im¬ posed upon you. To many, maturity means respect. Respect for the ideas of others, respect for the values of others, respect for tradition and the past. Maturity, too, can mean acceptance of the way things are — of the realization that social, political, or economic chailge in whatever form, and, however, beneficial it seems to some human beings, will disturb the lives of others. Instant revolution and instant change, which are the cries of today, will seldom work, since the great mass of mankind by nature clings to the security of the past. Change in social order has to be a slow task accomplished over several generations, until it has become an integral part of man’s life style. So what have the past three years contributed to the development of individual maturity? It is to be hoped that at Kelvin we have learned not the quadratic formula, not the pluperfect subjunctive of French verbs, but self¬ responsibility and self-discipline. The acceptance of our own responsibilities can be .an important and meaningful step in the growth towards maturity. Those who yearn for the so-called “freedom” of the adult world will find themselves in a few years indebted to the exercises in self-discipline and responsibility which we have experienced here. We have learned, in effect, that in life it is, as it has always been, “every man for himself” — it is your fault if you have failed an examination and no-one can do anything about it but you. And if you infringe upon the rights of others and prevent them from sharing the same priviledges as yourself, then it is you who is to blame and no-, one else is responsible. These principles, however, harsh they seem at the time, guide the individual’s development towards maturity. And surely this is just part of a wider experience we have lived through together at Kelvin. All of us have been changed, been enriched, however so much, however so slightly, by the experience and contact with ideas, con¬ cepts, and especially with contact with our fellow human beings. Here we have learned the feelings, emotions, stresses, and conflicts which await us in life. And these experiences have contributed towards the creation of you — a unique individual, a human being unlike any other on this planet. But the process of maturity does not stop today, nor tomorrow, nor indeed at any of the stages of life. Each experience and contact throughout life deepens our feeling and understanding, and widens our perception until at last, each may discover his own meaning and purpose in life. Charles Hayter 20 . XII - 11 JUDY ALISHARON: Our lively gal, an artist in her spare time, is a slugger in class — famous M.C.C. elevator fights! She will threaten to cut her hair if you do not watch your step. Judy plans to specialize in phys¬ iotherapy. Lucky patients! TED ASH: Ted can usually be seen in the “Pirate Ship” with J. E. He can also be seen on the weekends with P. R. Ted’s favorite saying is: “grill order, two cheeze ket¬ chup only.” Our 5-year man ex¬ pects to attend U of M next year. BOB CAMPBELL: Bob played full-back for the “Big Red Machine” this year and had the unfortunate expe¬ rience of being tackled (and slightly? injured) by one of his fellow teammates. When he’s not living it up in the great out¬ doors he can usually be found at home studying . . . Bob?! CATHY CUMMINGS: Cathy is often recognized as the only student in Kelvin who has her very own pet “Badger.” She can usually be seen scurrying out at noon or at four just to see him. Cathy is a real good kid and we are sure that she’s bound for a future of success. STEPHEN EBBERN: “Tex” can rarely be seen with¬ out his boots or a “Blue” on the weekends. “Tex” is a very am¬ bitious lad, as he is taking num¬ erous extra courses. He enjoys Kelvin so much that he plans to come back next year. Lots of luck Tex — you will need it! RICHARD GILBERT: Richard is better known to the students of Room 11 as “wrong¬ way Gilbert” because he can often be seen going down a one¬ way street the wrong way. Rich¬ ard’s ambition is to dig up archae¬ ological finds. His fate: to be a ditch digger for the rest of his life. GREG HAWKES: Greg asked us not to say any¬ thing about him, unless we could think of something nice to say BILL CHIPKA: Bill is known for his love of hunting. But, no one knows whether he loves the sport or the blood. Bill is also interested in track and field, and owns the “Willy-Mobile”, t h at is well worked in, right Harold? Good luck Willy! DAVID JOHNSTON: Our beloved sports captain is the only one in the room to own a genuine, one hundred per cent “F.U.P. Mobile”. Dave is the undisputed five-in-a-row champ¬ ion of the room and is a member of the “Big Four” (Room 11 Bridge Club). 22 JACK KATZ: Jack is known as a good friend of Joachim Meister’s. He is often heard “squirreling” around cor¬ ners. Jack was planning on be¬ ing an English major but was shocked out of it this year. Fate: Dentist (what else?). BOB KOWAL: Bob played right offensive guard for the Clippers but was moved to left defensive linebacker be¬ cause he could tackle so well on offense?! Kougar Kowal is just a gold streak going down Harrow every R and T period. RENNIE LAPP: “Work has killed many a good man, so why take chances.” is Rennie’s constant motto. Rennie is a mystery in class, because he’s never there. Seriously, Rennie is a good student and is well liked by all of Room 11. LINDA LESWICK: Linda is an avid sports fan. In fact, she can often be seen being pursued down the halls by her favourite sport. Linda is a partner in crime with “Legs” Walker, both of whom often add much comic relief to our English class¬ es. BARBARA LYON: Barb intends to go a long way with yellow cabs. (?) Letters and cards from Lindsay make her days shorter: besides the fact that she spends most of her time dreaming and thinks night time is perpetual. She is a ball of fun, but should keep her pinkies off other people’s property! JOACHIM MEISTER: Joachim is well known as Jack Katz’s best friend. This well rounded character can often be seen in his “vee-hicle”. Joe is Room ll’s ready and able sec¬ retary, and his chief ambition in life is to teach all “youse” guys how to speak. COLIN MORRISON: Colin perhaps is one of Mr. M’s. most favoured history stu¬ dents; that is, whenever he shows up for one of those grulling History classes. As one of our athletic students, Colin played left defensive end for the Clip¬ pers this year. Good luck in the future, Colin! KAREN NEULS: Karen, otherwise known as the “Weekend Warrior”, has for her theme song “Little Ol’ Wine Maker Me”. She is an avid sports- girl interested in tennis, horses and canasta. Our future nurse at the General Hospital is on one of Kelvin’s curling teams this year. DAVID PALMER: Dave enjoys, as his main pastime in school, watching volleyball and he also gets a big kick out of Grade 11 Maths. Dave’s am¬ bition is to be the Editor for the New York Times. His fate — to be a reporter for the Polede. PHYLLIS PARSONS: “Moose” is bubbling over with energy, or as one friend says “she’s a bombshell.” The excess of homework has limited her ac¬ tivities. Inter-school activities are “zilch” but on weekends she en¬ joys curling, G.H.C., and having fun. Good luck in the nursing field “Moose”. 23 aOi LARRY PENNER: Welcome back Larry. Larry is well-known by all the class as they see him in English classes and Homeroom. He is often heard starting his vacuum cleaner out¬ side the school at various hours; that is 9:06, 9:45 . . . PAM PERRY: Our natural blond is one of the “Big Four” bridge team of Room 11. Pam is usually “dummy” in the Perry-Johnston team. She is our Red Cross representative and one of the friendliest kids in the room. Pam was also a D.O.G.S. in Kelvin’s musical production this year. LEONA PETO: Leona is our favourite viola play¬ er and is constantly being seen travelling with the boys?! Leona makes a habit of robbing banks on Saturdays. Our sports captain is never at a loss for words, and is also one of the “Big Four”. HENRY PIETKIEWICZ: Henry is our chief volleyball fan. He can always be seen hustling B. L. and R. B. 24 hours a day. Henry just loves Mrs. F.’s En¬ glish classes. Henry’s ambition is to become a starfighter pilot. His fate is to end up as a tugboat captain. PETER ROBERTSON: TOIN THE CLUB!! JIM SCHOEMPERLEN: Our noble class president is well- liked by everyone, right Marg? Jim has participated in many ac¬ tivities at Kelvin, including stu¬ dent council and last year’s foot¬ ball team. Jim hopes to see the U of M next year. Good luck! ANDRE SHARPE: Andre is one of Room ll’s stu¬ dents who has many musical at¬ tributes. Andre plays rhythm guitar for the Hay Market Riot. Andre is a great guy and another affable member of our class. HUGH SHAWCROSS: “Frenchy” can be seen on week¬ ends warming up his Sopwith Camel at Point West with Don Slade. Hugh, living up to last year’s write up, is Kelvin’s resi¬ dent spaz. Ambition: Commercial pilot. Fate: Kumquat picker in Plum Cooley. SANDY STANTON: Sandy is the girl with a hole in her head. She says it’s due to a recent accident, but many of us have our doubts. Sandy loves trees and collects Saskatchewan grasshoppers. She attends school in her spare time. TED THEOBALD: Ted is the mad chemist of our class. He can be seen being blown up in every Chem. lab period. Frequently, he cleans up the Safeway parking lots on Sat¬ urdays due to S. E., D. E., and crew. Ambition: Professional En¬ gineer for an oil company. Fate: Grease Monkey. 24 MARTHA WALKER: Martha is an avid student council lover, (always game for a few laughs). She is usually seen spreading her grace and poise to her associates or picking on some poor innocent bystander. All kid¬ ding aside, “Legs” Walker is a good-natured, all-around kid. XII - 14 SUSAN BEACH: Council meetings and the writing up of minutes invariably keep Susan on her toes. As a sports enthusiast, she shows her skills by chaising budgie birds around Polo Park. Lately she has been locking the keys in the car, and leaving the headlights on. Need a boost, Sue? ANDREW BLOUW: Lincoln was once asked, “How long should a man’s legs be?” He replied, “Just long enough to reach the ground.” Though a down-to-earth fellow, Andrew’s stride is big enough to out-dis¬ tance the trivial trials and tribu¬ lations of the gram-atom, the earthworm’s respiratory system, and Tess Durbefield. KEN CHAPLIN: Ken’s a super sports enthusiast, and justly room sports captain. Nothing goes to his head too much though — all passes right through. He says he’s ambitious and unpeeved, but is planning tc take computer science of psy chology (queer kid), and doesn’ like pink late slips. DIANE CLARKSON: Diane is an avid choir member, despite the fact that her tongue is loose at both ends. She also enjoys the company of a certain red-headed student from the Fac¬ ulty of Engineering. Ambition: Taxi driver. Fate: Miss the Salter Street Bridge. MICHAEL DECTER: Our token president can frequent¬ ly be seen slushing down the slopes at Agassiz with a bevy of ski-bunnies in hot persuit. Our world traveller is reknown for his imported “Rossignol Strattos” skis and his Dad’s 13 second Charger with which he holds the Kenora to Wpg. record. Next year it’s on to Harvard and all those beautiful American women and watered down Yankee beer. DENISE De DECKER: Denise is the active V. P. of the R. C. and she can usually be seen skulking about the halls conning people good natured and good humoured, even when she gets bad marks. Her excuse, “I can’t stand too much success!” JOHN deJARDIN: This corrupt lad aspires to some¬ day follow in the “tracks” of such illustrious gentlemen as Zappa, Huxley, Nietzsche, and Burroughs. Poor John encoun¬ tered some trouble “fitting” into the Kelvin scene, but now he seems to be settling down with the rest of the silt. BARRY FINNEN: Barry has a magnetic personality that attracts bottle caps and nails, and he thinks that the quick- change transmission on his AMX will give him two nickles for a dime. Barry’s pet peeves are pigeon toed Dachshunds and neu¬ rotic lab partners. 25 DIANA FLINTOFT: Diana is a super sport, running track from Physics to English, and fighting her way into Kel¬ vin’s messiest locker daily. She’s a wild drive, specializing in side- swiping parked vehicles, and mowing over A W fences. Di should be a real knock-out at Western next year. MARNIE FRAIN: When not “batting the bird” our M.S.S.A.A. badminton champ can usually be seen pursuing her in¬ tellectual interests in the halls, library, or where have you. Other than that Marnie is witty, intel¬ ligent, charming and would you believe, yearbook rep. for room 14. MICHAEL GWYNE: Michael’s lips are sealed. He has no complaints about life, and seems to accept it as it is handed out to him. However, he is not a completely impermeable wall, for sometimes he forgets English assignments too, and scribbles them out between bells. MARGARET HADDOW: The girl spreading time thin be¬ tween the Biology Lab, Eaton’s Toyland, and the basketball court can only be Margaret. A hazard on the road (which she’ll never admit is true) Margaret should do well in Science, as long as he doesn’t mix test tubes and teddybears. VADIM KOBASEW: Vadim is completely bilingual, al¬ though we haven’t figured out what language it is he speaks. He is class physicist, historian, and geographer, to the chagrin of those who feel one virtue is plenty with so few options this year. Watch this boy, life has taken on a new hue since last year’s endless summer. JAQUIE KRASSIE: We can’t say very much about her (she threatened to sue for liable)! Otherwise, she’s a pretty nice, talkative kid who’s turning into the budding artist of Room 14. The Guidance Club is also taking up a lot of our redhead’s time . . . whatever it is? JOE KROLIK: Joe is usually found agreeing with Mr. Butler, helping class¬ mates with Chem. or Physics, or running down Kelvinites with his CCM. An unknown poet, he is also notorious for spur-of-the- moment rotten puns, and, last but not least, his great admiration of E. W. BARB LAY: Barb is our star athlete, es¬ pecially active in curling, and she is secretary of the Teener’s Club at the Civic Caledonean. Room 14 is also proud of having the receive of the Big K. Ambition: nurse. Fate: bed pan hustler. JIM McFAULL: Who’s the dashing card sharp and pool champ bombing Win¬ nipeg streets in his GTO? Jim? Well, he’s close to it. With your own pool table and the car keys within begging range, the rest is just gravy . . . Surprisingly, Jim’s a real nice guy with no quarrel with life. EILLEEN McMORRIS: Eilleen has a flair for high liv¬ ing, with summers spent on the Riviera, and personalized fur caps. Mainstay of inter-room teams and an enthusiastic class supporter, she’s definitely a room favorite. Her plans for the future are as vague as he’s able to make them. 26 DAVID MOFFATT: David possesses the twisted mind of an insane pervert?!!! His sense of sacerdocrinity is unaptualtive- ly hydrangeatic and he can usual¬ ly be seen banging up smack. Aspicatoritively, he professes to be unprotentate, and inconviru- lent, but in actuality he dis- uographates and often blows the shot. STIRLING PENNYCOOK: Sir Rodrick, late of Pennycook Castle, Stirling County, is hand¬ some, debonaire, dashing, gen¬ erous, masculine, and pays well for write-ups. Bound for Com¬ merce at the U. of M. Pet Peeves: Dutch Smacks and Flin Flon Bombers. ELLEN POON: This girl is sheer genius when it comes to numbers, and should achieve any goal that she sets herself. She is also modest be¬ yond the endurance of all year¬ book reps. Her attempts to calm frenzied hair jerking are com¬ plete in, “Don’t worry about it.” LESLEY REYNOLDS: Lesley is one of the more mys¬ terious members of our class, who’s only known hobby is hand¬ ing out sunflower seeds in class. Although we have discovered the kindness trait in Lesley, her future will just be another one of Les¬ ley’s deep, dark secrets. PETER ROBINSON: It is no secret to any of us that Peter owns from 20 to 70 bun¬ nies. He says he keeps them down in his basement in cages. Room 14’s all-star basketball player has no immediate plans for the future. His pet peeve is cocciccliosis. CHRIS ROLLO: Chris is a modern dance addict who charges five cents a look . . in her locker mirror. This is only surpassed by the underground activities of her friends in the park. We all wonder why she seems to be constantly hounded for notes by Mr. Q. INGRID SOROS: Our Red Cross rep. seems to be getting a lot of comments from! the boys lately . . . usually on her maxi-coat! Anyway, she’s getting noticed (right Ingrid?). Always being seen with her look- alike from Room 61, she has managed to confuse a lot of ' teachers. TIM STUART: School V. P., Tim has no spare time . . . Eaton’s, Student Coun¬ cil, weekends, and talent nights at St. Mary’s are quite enough. He wants to forget about uni¬ versity and go directly into Social Work, but looming formidably is the U. of M. campus. Well, at least he can take Social Work there. ERIC WINOGRAD: Eric is envied for his admiration of both J. K. and Tess. His stu¬ pidity in class and his favorite trick of sneaking off to see the Minnesota Vikings instead of be¬ ing in school contradict his report card. “Worm’s” ambition is to graduate from Commerce some¬ where. XII -17 27 PEGGY AITKENS: This tall blonde doesn’t say much in class cause she is always think¬ ing about better things to do. Peggy is one of the fortunate members of our class in that she has a place reserved for her in nursing school at the General Hospital. Lots of luck Peggy! JUDY BARABASH: This blonde, blue-eyed member of our class professes an unusual interest in football this year . . (at St. Paul’s?) She delights in beating Ann at cards during study periods and her special “Under¬ ground” activities usually take her to Neiman’s after school for . . .? BRUCE BOOKBINDER: The Renowned “John Ferguson” of the River Heights Juveniles, Bruce can usually be heard pro¬ crastinating about his many scraps with his teddy bear. For some reason Bookie has an un¬ explainable desire for ‘Junk’! LAUREL CAMPBELL: “The Campbell Kid” makes a mean (make that Green) cup of coffee. This jovial “Jolley Camp¬ er” doesn’t know there’s such a thing as Thursday in the school week. Shortstuff is unofficially enrolled at CCI and has been seen around the city in a certain mailman’s uniform. GREG CHOW: Our newcomer is the greatest thing that happened to Room 17’s basketball team this year. jWith a friendly smile to greet ! everyone, this scholar, sharp- dresser, and nice guy is bound to bigger and better things. JAYLIN CURRY: Jaylin is the A+ biology-lab stu¬ dent of our room. If it weren’t for Mrs. Glasco’s faithful helper we can be sure that room 17 would stop functioning. Jaylin takes a keen interest in helping children. STARR DELLAR: Starr plans in becoming part o! the Bedpan Brigade. She is the guiding light of Gem class where her comments brighten the day. Whatever awaits her future, we know Starr’s “twinkling” per¬ sonality will serve her well. ROBERTA GRANT: “Birdie” has an avid interest in wildlife. She takes full advantage of the freedom of speech which tends to get her involved in verbal battles with Mrs. A and Wild Bill. Another one who is a staunch supporter of having one . . . uva good weekend! RON GROSS: We were finally able to determine the colour of Ron’s eyes when he got his annual haircut. One of the quieter members of our clas� he is truly a ladies’ man who enjoys having a real ball once in awhile. Ron looks to a happy career in Alberta. CRAIG HARRIS: Quiet Craig just became famous throughout the room as the best play reader. Cool, calm, and col¬ lected he is “head” of the class and another E4 maths whiz. He believes the whole world has gone to “Pot” but realizes it’s a “joint” effort. 28 STEPHANIE HAWKINS: Our neurotic yearbook editor car. often be seen in the Student Council Office convinced that everyone is plotting to put her away. When she’s not working at Eaton’s she’s out with her “dough” or the laughin’ bridge group. Steff is planning on enter¬ ing Interior Design next year under the watchful eyes of her “muther”. PAT HOGER: Patti plans on becoming part of the Bedpan Brigade; that noble, glorious profession that demands patience, virtue and ... At present, she concerns herself with a certain M. S. and sits spell¬ bound along with S. D. and I. B. in a certain “Gem” class. BARB HOLM: Although Barb didn’t go in the operetta this year she combined her musical talents with the other members of the Power Company. Another one who is expressing the desire to go to Europe this summer, she is not yet decided on what to do next year. SHIRLEY HUNNISETT: Shirley says that school is just part-time till the weekend rolls around. Funny, her idea of a weekend is a 4 month stay in Vancouver. Since there is no¬ body (correction no boys) at Kel¬ vin, Shirley wants to enter en¬ gineering and be the only female. How are the h . . . . hootowls in Vane.? TED KELLY: A member of the “Fearsome Falcon Foursome” and “Russell’s Raiders”, “Sieve” was nominated manager of the year by the foot¬ ball team. Other than participat¬ ing in football, hockey, and bas¬ ketball Ted is interested in riding the slopes. BRANT LEWIS: “Lew”, F 10 , hopes to play out his option on his 5 year no-cut contract with Kelvin. Unfortu¬ nately Brant was not able to play with the Clippers this year due to a football injury he sustained at UMSU. Brant got a job at the Concert Hall in hope of seeing “LaRue”. CHRISTINE LIPINSKI: Those who know Chris know what a Bon Studiant de fran- cais she is. Right Mr. B? She spends most of her time in the Music room or at the Miseri poisoning the patients. Because she’s so friendly Chris will make a good dental assistant. ANN MACHALSKI: Ann is our class secretary who delights in telling banana jokes and reading Peanuts through most of her classes. She is es¬ pecially good at escaping before parole and is one of Mr. B’s favorite French scholars. DOUG MONTGOMERY: Another FFF member and Clip¬ per’s star end, No. 75 scored “the” touchdown of the season. We hear from one unreliable source that he may be back next year to try for two. Doug loves to eye all the girls but for some odd reason we think its the other way around. COLIN PETERSON: is the room’s star comic in imitations and at art. “Beso” has a duel personality, he does something different both nights of the weekends. He also seems to get himself involved in the minor skirmishes that take place every period. The Big? Will he really become a Plumber? 29 RICHARD PRESTON: “Ricardo” alias “Gump” alias “the Reverend” will skip any class except when they are group efforts. Renowned for making a bad cup of coffee for the Room 17 “irregulars”. Our popular vice- pres, film narrator, inter-room sports participant, expert yuker player can be usually seen slither¬ ing home at noon with the “eel”. TONY SALO: Our witty finn can usually be seen throwing comments at Big Ben! (which is a myth????) Pub- hopper and admirer of Mary Jane is known for his good looks and charms with the girls ... to . . be . . continued . . next . year? MICHELLE SAWYER: One of the gleesome, threesome, absentism, Mr. Brun’s french protege and a friend to Mr. Kallos, is gradually wearing down a path to the office. Our member of the “Back Row Hockey Club” has a special dislike for the Hawk(s). We wonder if camp¬ ing will be Michelle’s chosen career. ARLENE SPIVAK: is convinced that Hush Puppies get her to school faster; that’s why she’s only late 3 times a week. Thinks she is straight for¬ ward, blunt, and tactless . . . watch out for Scorpion’s sting, stung it could prove to be a “Soul Experience”. She has con¬ sidered drawing blood (via Hypodermic) in disguise of a Lab Technologist. DORRIE TATE: This active weekend girl is an¬ other part-time student who kept quiet long enough so she could disappear and not be noticed. Beauty and brains hope to aid Dorrie in entering the engineer¬ ing faculty because of the great odds against her. LIZ TAYLOR: Groovin right along after “Black Bart” (we have yet to see the fellow!?) Liz is another one of the laugh’n bridge team. It’s really too bad her famous name¬ sake couldn’t take after our Liz more but Liz plans on entering the university rather than acting field to get her MRS. degree. MARY ZAJAC “Ajac” will more than likely be¬ come a MRS. before any other female in room 17. Our Biology expert can be seen frequently sorting out her locker ... I wonder why? We hope the blood tests in BOI. lab won’t upset your future too much Mary! Good Luck! XII - 29 NEIL AGNEW: Rounding out his first decade at Kelvin, “Spiro” suffered from a serious case of “Boyles”. Our amateur scientist claims that his pet-rat has grown over six inches since he started feeding it a new kind of oats. JOEL BERMAN: Can be seen in his Canary col¬ oured Dodge Dart with his hair and girls. 489-2521. 30 JILL BRIGHT: Jill loves the fresh air but when she makes it to class she invari¬ ably has something to tell you about your future. Even though she never quite sees eye to eye with Mr. I., Jill does make an ef¬ fort. Ambition: Head of the So¬ cial Climbers. Fate: Woman Wrestler. RON CLARK: Alias “Renny the Red” the mad Irishman is room 29’s only repre¬ sentative at inter-mural games. Ron’s ambition is secret due to a law forbidding its ever happen¬ ing. Pet peeve is chicken jobs. JIM DERRY: The silent tone. He likes English so much that he writes essays in his tractor suit. DOUG DONALD: Comes to school on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, but then on Thursday . . . and then again there’s Friday ... He has this par¬ ticular interest to the right. Good luck next year on Mondays, Tues¬ days, and Wednesdays, Doug! KLAUS FENNIG: Despite Mr. I.’s every endeavour to keep Klaus quiet, he has yet to succeed. Well, “What else can a guy do?” If he ever learns any¬ thing he could become potential¬ ly dangerous. He tells us he’s a great guy to have around. FAYE FINCH: Faye is room 29’s star athlete who has seniority over all the students at Kelvin including Mr. Thomp¬ son. Faye has a competition going with Mr. Thompson . . . that is, to see if she finishes school before he retires. (Another decade or two . . .) ROSS FLINTOFT: “Mr. Grumps” favourite pastime is making the rounds at the farm. Our social committee Chairman is extremely active in organizing social functions in and out of the school. DAVID FOULKES: Our unobtrusive “head” of the class, Dave is only in his Freshie year at Kelvin. He spends a lot of time arguing with Mr. I. about Calgary. “I have been a stranger in a strange land.” BILL GARBUTT: Our friendly, and sometimes wit¬ ty Sals cook (that’ll be four, loaded, to go,) can be seen at the back of the room trying to think amidst the pandemonium. Ambi¬ tious flapjack, er, flipper is going on to get his PhD. in cheese¬ burgers this fall. BRUCE INGRAM: Hardworking? Friendly? Intelli¬ gent? Bruce? You bet! Bruce is a great guy with a wonderful little something always with him. Though he’s had a few hassles here and there, it looks as though he MIGHT make it through Kel¬ vin this year. SUSAN JACOBSEN: Our quiet, vicacious, blonde still keeps everybody wondering how she gets those high marks. Sue is a track star from the word “go” and has led Kelvin through many a victory in sports events. JON JOHNSON: God’s gift to Iceland, Iceland’s gift to the world. Our star Clip¬ per was head of the Oats division (Captain Crunch) and has a pas¬ sion for Bertrand Russell and the Montcalm. Ambition: President of the world. Fate: Fish cleaner at Gimli. ANN LODDERS: Dur grade twelve freshie comes from S.M.A. and is exceedingly hard to control. Has anyone here aver seen Randy? (We all know it’s a fictitious name for her kiss¬ ing cousin, Davey). BRONWYN LYON: A newcomer to Kelvin this year but her great personality has won her many friends. SONJA MACYSHYN: Believes in long skirts and hates gossip. Can often be seen conning in Mr. T. Is never? ? late for class ’cos she’s never there. Sonja and her counterparts in crime are often together in class (or out) so long as it’s during school time. DALE MacFARLANE: The “wonderful little something” of room 29 is often seen with B. I. or working in her spare time at the “Plush Puppy.” One of the more studious? members of our class. Dale’s ambition is to get to graduation this year. MIKE McMARTIN: Worked along with the boys at the farm. Kelvin’s star punter was often accused of not being able to keep up with the pace, both at the farm and the Monty. Un¬ cle Mike hopes to graduate in this his centennial year at Kelvin. LINDA McCRIE: One of the most unobtrusive members of our class. Linda spent an interesting Easter holiday in California. We’re sure Lin will be a success in anything she’ll do. ' DON McLAUGHLIN: Rm. 29’s star Monach and bud¬ ding theologian has been trying bard to get into Kyle’s oat farm but was delegated to the ham division. Our refugee from the ghetto of Sturgeon Creek has an ambition to emigrate to Salt Lake City. ALIX McLEAN: Alix is a combination of Lady Godiva, Little Miss Muffet and Christine Keeler. She is a tremen¬ dously . . . studious girl during the week while waiting for a green roadrunner and her “Tuck”. Motto, “gain weight, go blonde and lose your inhibitions”. 32 SANDRA MUIRHF.AD: GORDON ROBACK: Since Gordon emigrated from Montreal our “Separatist” re¬ mains the most outspoken rebel of our class. An avid ladies’ man. Gord’s favorite saying; “But the thing is . . .” MARJORIE ROSS: Sonja’s counterpart in crime (the quieter of the two) can always be found hanging on to what’s left of Sonja . . . LINDA SHAW: “If I can only be good at one thing, let it be talking.” This apt¬ ly describes our bubbly redhead. Ambition: Secretary. Fate: To keep on talking. KAREN SIZELAND: Room 29’s silent but deadly won¬ der, Karen loves talking to chairs on those “better than average” weekends. DAVE SMITH: Our “Reverend” attempted to keep up with the boys at the farm but his inexperience was against this. The serious minded Dave plans to enter the Jesuit order. This young prophet has done without a lot of things . . . Oh yes, Dave is planning a trip to Sweden next year. ANDY STOUT: Andy is a masterful artist of G. R which invariably keeps the class m stitches. He is one of the live¬ liest members of our class. BRIAN TIMLICK: Our devoted MAWD (or is that mod) follower smokes a pipe, works hard in school and is there¬ fore inconspicuous and quiet. Good Luck in the future, Brian. XII-41 CHRIS ANTHONY: Chris is another of Room 41’s mod dressers. He can often be seen in some classes working his -off, in order to hand in late work. Imagine how he’s had to work to hand in early work! His ambition in life is to get on the right side of Mr. Nei- man. 33 DON BURROWS: Don is our blond-haired Banzai warrior. He can readily be found sulking in corners with some weird (?) people! Don’s ambi¬ tion is to finish whatever he de¬ cides to start. Unfortunately his fate will be somewhat ‘finis coronat opus.’ GARY CHALMERS: Gary can often be seen (or more likely, heard) trying desper¬ ately to tease Marlene. Gary is liked by everyone because of his “dashing” charm. He tells us his ambition is to have his Firebird turn an impossible 15 second E. T. JIM CHAMICK: Jim is one of Room 41’s more quiet, scholarly guys, which doesn’t mean he isn’t nice, be¬ cause he isn’t not nice, it’s that he is sometimes nice when he’s not being not that nice, which actual¬ ly means that he is rarely not nice, which comes out declared that he is a genuinely a “NICE” person . . . .? TERRY CHURKO: Terry can be found being quiet or on her more rambunctious, moods, hanging upside down with E. W. Ambition: To work with CUSO in Africa. Fate: Red Cross Rep. GLORIA CRANE: Can be found looking absolutely dishevelled in some lunchroom study periods. Gloria has an endless count of scheming plans to trap J. L. into paying some sort of attention to her. Her ambition is to be asked out by J. L. Her fate is rather sad. PAT CRAWFORD: Our charming “Wabbit Watcher” is usually seen tearing into the lunchroom during Biology periods for that vital tin of mushroom soup. We have word that Pat will sprout toadstools on her left ear before June. Keep an eye out for this interesting speciman, all you Biology enthusiasts!!! BOB FISHER: Bob is more commonly known as “Sticks”. His striped socks are an outstanding feature to our room, except on Monday morn¬ ings, when nothing is really ap¬ preciated. Bob wants to go to Toronto to make “it” big . . .??? (IT??) DON FRYERS: We used to see Don around here but he got fed up with us and left. What this boy lacks is Pa¬ tience. What could possibly be better than being on one of the City’s Top Volleyball teams? What could be better than being in Room 41? Don found an an¬ swer and although we sound nasty it’s actually that we’re ex¬ ceedingly jealous. JOE HAINS: J.J. has a habit of always trying to get the last word in, especially during a debate. He possesses the talent of the con-artist, which means he gets away with mur¬ der and spews forth very little effort. Joe informs us he wants to become involved in politics and he has proven to us his great potential! MARLENE HARRIS: Marlene has to prepare herself for school every morning by don¬ ning a pair of brass Knuckles and attempting to flatten out Gary. Defeated, deflated and pos¬ itively heartbroken, she emerges from each class with a rather pathetic look on her face and tries to stop strangers in the hall, looking for some kind of help, to defeat that ruthless, dashing gentleman(?). She has strong suicidal tendencies. 34 HEATHER HOGAN: Heather is room 41 ’s “little troll” and can be seen on week¬ ends tearing up Metro streets in the Green Puddle Jumper. Heb’s famous puzzling, sympathetic look is often interrupted by a shriek of laughter . . . which we feel entitles us to give her a few puzzling, sympathetic looks. JIM HUSACK: Jim is the last of the denounced hippies of Room 41. Memorial Park’s loss is our . . . gain? He keeps trying to convince himself he’s a prospect for Hair, but if that idea flops he can always work for the Humane Society picking fleas out of rabid dog’s ears. KEITH JOHNSON: Keith can be located on the southeast corner of Kingsway and Harrow deciding which side of the street to shred. If you’re ever wondering what those super¬ sonic booms are at 4:00 every day, and if you think you’re cracking up seeing orange flash¬ es, and if Kingsway is a gravel road in June, please contact Mr. Johnson, 489-7002 any day after 5:00. JOHN LESLIE: John is our closest resemblance to a wire-haired terrier. He is the only butcher employed at Kelvin and his hacking around gets him in the most extraordin¬ ary situations. His favourite say¬ ing is “There’s B. T. Nick, my turn?” LINDA McARTHUR: Linda had a rough time at the beginning of school this year but we put our faith in her and she pulled through, slightly shattered, but through. She is liked by all and has a great ambition, that is, to finish her Home-Ec project by second year university. DON McLEOD: WAYNE MYHAL: How Wayne ever gets to school on time remains a great unsolved mystery. He boasts of his great collection of pink (not lingerie) and although he spends a lot of time on cars he has yet to start one he’s worked on. BRUCE NICHOLSON: Just think. If it weren’t for this handsome, s a u v e, debonair, charming, talented, intellectual, informed, sophisticated, young man we wouldn’t have a Bar¬ racuda at Kelvin. (That will be $1.50, please, Bruce.) Bruce can’t decide whether he’s delighted or disappointed with the new dress code, but as long as GIRLS are still allowed no tears will be shed. RHEA SHAW: HYMIE SPENCE: Hymie’s ability to arrive late every day has no longer become a worry to us. He sometimes makes it for “God Save the Queen” but that’s pushing it. He also tells us that by next year he might accumulate enough per¬ sonality to have a decent write¬ up. 35 DAVE WILKINS: Dave told us not to write any¬ thing about him unless it was nice. ELAINE WINSLOW: Elaine, one of our more fortunate members of room 41, went to Florida this year and as penance we hope she is bothered by sand grits for the rest of her life. XII - 46 DAVID ASH: How Dave made it to Grade 12, Mr. P. and the rest of our class will never know, and we’re still wondering about Physics. He can usually be seen in Rypp’s during the R. and T. periods and joining the “club” on weekends. JOAN BRAUN: Cute, sweet, and adorable . . . That’s what you think! Joan somehow finds the time between her weekends to come to school, but mind you, this is only for recuperation. Joan can often be heard saying, “Oh, am I going to fail!” ROWLAND BRAYSHAY: Rowland is one of our grade 12 veterans. Maybe this can account for his skill at hiding books and knuckle-rapping. Rowland is one of those students who knows what’s going on in every class. But he has one fault, that is, he writes essays in pencil. FRANK CHESTER: Frank can often be found talking to Sandy M. His favourite saying is “I could have passed if I tried, but . . .” Anyways Frank, we still wish you the best in the future. Are you ever going to need it! JOAN COUGHLIN: Some are born great; some achieve greatness; and then there’s Joan. Our gifted mathematician and not too gifted yearbook rep. works hard at school so she can enjoy the weekends. Repeated complaint, “Why wasn’t I born rich instead of so good looking?” ELINOR CURTIS: If you don’t see a smile on Elinor’s face it’s because you’re looking at the back of her head. “A friend in need is a friend in¬ deed,” and Elinor is as “deedy” as they come, or is that “needy”? anyway, she’s a great kid to have around (we guess). RICHARD DRUMMOND: Richard is the quiet, responsible member of Room 46 who often goes unnoticed but not unappre¬ ciated. CHRISTINE GIBSON: CAROL GUESTS: Usually supporting some cause, Carol rarely has a free minute, but when she does she tries to catch up in that unattainable Math. In the remaining 20 hours, she is busy contributing her jokes to those backroom discus ' s. HEATHER HALLIDAY: A member of 46’s “Silent Set”, Heather can shock us all with her part in backroom discussions. Her locker has been declared a disaster area; where else in Kel¬ vin can you find an apple orchard without any trees? AL JACKS: A1 can always be identified and singled out from the rest of the class by the use of his own vocabulary, using such words as “blattensphere”. From secret sources, we hear that he is almost as good a cheerleader as he is a poet. BRIAN LECKER: Brian is still trying to put two consecutive weeks of school to¬ gether. When he is here, he is known for his avid participation in English classes and his board¬ erasing techniques. Our star speed skater is a follower of the three year plan, or so he tells us. MARDIE MARSHALL: Mardie spends most of her time doing Jim (?) at W.W.C. . She loves skiing and sailing and spends a lot of her time hopefully planning for next year’s ski trips. Her favourite time is the week¬ ends and can always be heard saying, “only one more day ’til Friday.” SANDY MENZIES: Sandy hopes eventually to beat J. B.’s Volkswagen in a car rally. Lots of luck! Sandy is also known as an avid mark scrounger, and is unable to give any definite date when he hopes to eventually graduate from Kelvin. JANE MOOREHOUSE: A late addition to 46, Jane had no trouble making herself at home. Friendly, thy second name is Smiley, and that’s synonymous to Jane, in case you didn’t know. Beaming and bubbling, Jane’s always present, prompt and has her homework done. How’s that for misfit! BRUCE MURRAY: Bruce, who is more commonly known as turtle, is the typically good guy who has typically gone wrong. In one of his more sober moods, Bruce might be found asking, “where did all my marks go?” Bruce says that he also loves his Mommy. JIM NORTH: Jim, more commonly known as Bobby Hull’s protege, has been recalled this year for another all- star season at Kelvin. Jim’s in¬ terests include Mr. P’s flying lessons. Jim’s favourite pastimes include sneaking a canopener in¬ to the lunchroom, and nursing his hockey wounds. 37 CATHY POLSON: As people often say, “the smaller the brain the bigger the I.Q.” and Cathie is living proof of this! Cathie somehow manages to make it to her classes on time by dodging through all the big guys legs. Good luck in the fu¬ ture, Cathie! JOHN ROSS: Aside from collecting denim jack¬ ets, John H. Ross (Q. S.) is an avid gymnist and can often be heard offering free hair cuts to hippies. John’s future is not known, but he will most likely get caught chewing Chiclets be¬ fore he leaves Kelvin. CATHI SLOCOMB: Here’s the latest thing in Room 46; if Cathi makes it to school on time, it’s only because she has set out for somewhere else and has gotten lost on the way. Cathi has plans for Physio¬ therapy, but don’t rush her, she’ll get there. VICTOR SORENSEN: Although Vic will probably be able to survive this year at Kel¬ vin, he is dubious about a certain Ford station wagon making it at all. If he ever gets the time, he has also decided to beat J. B.’s Volkswagen in a car rally. Better stick to poker in the lunchroom Vic. ELIZABETH STEBBING: Our raven-haired Kate of Kel¬ vin’s operetta is determined to return next year to participate again in Kelvin’s next musical production. Although Liz’s fu¬ ture is undecided we can be sure that she will not remain a kitchen helper in the Misericordia Hos¬ pital for the rest of her life. PEGGY STIVEN: Peggy is our import from Ja¬ maica ... or is it Portugal? or maybe Zambia? Er . . . all three? Poor mixed up kid. (She’s got brains!) She’s Room 26’s only celebrity . . . she used to sing with Johnny Nash. ROSS STONEHAM: Ross bounced into our class late this year, and he’s been hopping and “skipping” ever since then. Ross has the common misbelief that “presence” are the things that you get for Christmas. Any¬ ways, good luck at whatever you do in the future, Ross! BURKE THORNTON: “Beau” came skating and tackling into Kelvin this year from S.J.R. and although we’re a shock to his system, he has survived smashingly. His latest project is learning how to drive the “Blue Dud”. Oh well, scrap one fender. SUSAN TOOTHILL: Susan is a rarity in our school (that’s for sure)! However, she prefers to spend most of her time in other parts of the world — th{it is, Toronto maybe? Kind, gracious, beautiful, modest, Susie feels that she is worth more than forty-four words. CHARLES TUCK: Chuck’s main activities include singing “Season of the Witch,” giving away Manchurian Desert Rats, and opposing monarchists, triumvirates, and other dictato¬ rial subversives. Since this is the fourth time he’s made us re¬ write this, he has asked that he be described as the cool, silent, hippie-type. 38 JULIE WOLOSHYN Julie came to us from Flin Flon this year and has been a definite asset to our class. We wish her well! HOWIE WOOD: Woodsie hates to get up weekday mornings, but continues his schooling in spite of it. Playing football, being a Stanle y-boy and keeping Room 46 informed are Howie’s main activities. Woodsie is one of the few Clippers who will make it to the Punch Bowl? BRIAN YAGI: You might say he’s one of the better members of our class — better grades, better attendance, better punctuality. Then again you might not. Brian got an R T for graduating last year, and we can’t wait to see what he gets this year. DAN BERMAN. Dexterous Dan lives for cheap thrills, but with inflation, he’s finding it hard to exist. His fu¬ ture lies in architecture, his pre¬ sent lies in skiing and his past lies in obscurity. Dan will surely shine in the high aesthetic line as a man of rare culture. CAROLYN BROCK. Copper-haired Carolyn is the very model of a modern high school student. She obviously en¬ joys life and its many pleasures, as shown by her endless ze al for Latin. Witty and wise, scholarly and studious, Carolyn will leave an impression in the world wher¬ ever she goes. MORRY BROWN: Marvelous Morry is president of room 47 and a Grade 12 Rep to the student council. He tells us he enjoys the finer things in life and has a particular passion for hunting. The question is . . . WHAT does he hunt? The an¬ swer can be revealed by phoning 489-7821 any day after 4:00. XII - 47 DOUG BAUER: Dashing Douglas sits in one comer of our room with a sly smile on his face and plots the disastrous downfall of each of his fellow classmates. However, we know that really he’s a typical red-blooded Canadian youth whose interests lie in typical red- blooded Canadian areas . . . whatever that means. That sly smile is but a wile of a guile. MARNIE BRUDER: Mamie enjoys curling, bridge, chess and checkers but how that makes her eligible for nursing we’ll never know. That sadistic strain in her tells us that she’ll surely succeed in anything she tries, because if she doesn’t, WATCH OUT. SHELLEY COLE: Shelley sits pensively in her seat and watches the Drama of hu¬ man existence pass unobtrusive¬ ly by in front of her. We think that her life is all very secretive and that she will someday emerge as one of the great philosophers of our time. 39 CATHERINE DAY: This exotic New Zealand dish is a faithful member of the Choir and Drama Clubs. Behind that zany sense of humor lies a nor¬ mal, sane, intelligent girl and when she returns to New Zea¬ land she will bestow upon her people the present trend of Wes¬ tern Civilization, which may prove disastrous. ROBERT GINN: To learn anything about Robert, we had to consult Josephine Sal¬ amander’s second cousin, Uncle Willy, about this boy. Known for his dramatic and spicy rendi¬ tions of Colomba translations, Robert constantly assures us that our children will be reading about his great achievements . . . some day . . . JIM GROSSE: As we watch Jim construe Reach For the Top questions on the back of his Maths book we feel certain that his future lies in one of two fields; Fame or Obscurity. His punctuality is slightly off- key, that being because he lives in another time zone. CHARLES HAYTER: Chuck is our Drama club presi¬ dent who can be found spilling out his proverbial wisdom on the south-west corner of the second floor any time between 8:00 and 5:00. If he’s not leading the Et Cetera, “Off the Cuff”, and the Operetta to smashing success you’ll find him muttering, “Se monete, mundi, nam ille venit,” which means something philoso¬ phical in Latin. LAURIE HAZELWOOD: Laurie, an amateur scholar, loves school and its many challenges but strangely enough hates com¬ ing here. An exciting and dynamic personality, Lauretta will make her mark in the film world, starring in multi-million dollar motion pictures, or if all else fails, she’ll become a hermit and live in seclusion on an island somewhere off in the South Pa¬ cific writing soap operas. MARILYN HENDERSON: Marilyn can constantly be found showing everyone in her room that she has no cavities. Sparkling with wit and good humour, Marilyn’s favourite sports are skiing. JUNE HORSBURGH: Known as “June Bug” or just “Bug”. The “biggest pest in the west” has a strong conviction to abolish capital punishment. June is infatuated with animals, in particular dogs and birds of all species. Apart from these peculi¬ arities she appears to be as nor¬ mal as the rest of us. BONNIE HUFF. Although quiet and reserved, Bonnie always manages to stump everyone with her English an¬ swers. She is, to date, the only sane member of our English class and accepts all our idiosyncrasies as a part of life. Quite truthfully we think she’s the only one in our room who will ever make a success in future. MARK JUDD: JIM LANOWAY: Mr. James Lanoway is somewhat of an enigma, and thus defies any capsule commentary of the yearbook type. However, it has been ascertained from various sources that his interests lie pri¬ marily in girls, cars and travel¬ ling; that his future lies in Uni¬ versity; and that he lives “only once.” 40 MARK JUDD: Mark is known for his celebrated sneer, an entertaining snicker, and a world famous leer. With these social advantages he is bound for success in two places . . . Peru and the South Pole. JOHN LITTLE: An apoplectic animalculous an¬ swer to all animalistic ages, agents and advances, John is a perfect¬ ly normal Canadian youth. His urges lie in music, girls and weightlifting; and his pet peeve in all earnest is yearbook write¬ ups written in Encyclopaedia Bri- tannica style. ROBERT REISS: A mixture of multifarious man¬ nerisms and multitinious mon¬ strosities of marsupial maneu¬ ver, “Babs” is a hedonist who lives only for his own pleasure. (If he lived for others’ pleasure, he wouldn’t be around too long.) He plans to introduce Hockey in his favourite country, France. PHYLLIS SLOBODIAN: Phyllis is a lover of the classics, adoring Caesar, Cicero and Josh Billings. Her pastimes include knitting and reading. After high school she wants to become a teacher and we’re sure her terrific attitude will win her many friends and admirers. HAROLD STEIMAN: “Hair-Oil” was recently asked to star in the New York production of “HAIR” but he declined stat¬ ing that it would ruin his image. Although he is somewhat of a cynic, Harold supports the foot¬ ball team and other athletics. He is promising in the future world as his “original” translations of Colomba have won him many attributes. MERVIN SWERED£: Melvin heard the call of duty in September and has permanently taken position as class. With this stimulating and aristo¬ cratic bearing, he too has a future with two choices . . . the House of Commons or the guillotine. He indulges wildly in song. GORDON THEISSEN: Much amused by the antics of his fellow classmates, Gordon has yet to find satisfactory self-amuse¬ ment. His vast interests lie in such a wide field as . . . curling? This strong believer in apathy will be at least amusing in what¬ ever he endeavours. ROBERT THOMPSON: Bob is noted for his “robe of many colours”. He is possibly a somnambulist who accidentally walks into school every day. His brilliant and somewhat varied French pronunciations offset the often sombre mood of our class in History periods. Pleasant dreams I JANICE URSEL: This copper-haired streak of lightning is proficient in athlet¬ ics, yet her astounding inter¬ pretation of the first paragraph of “Tess” has won her world ac¬ claim and she may hit Broad¬ way someday . . . Broadway Street that is. Jan will certainly make a smashing success of her¬ self. PETER VALLENTYNE: Pete is a vocalistic variation of variable vengeance and venerable vicissitude of virtue and vice. Mr. Vallentyne believes in using things and not people. How ut¬ terly profound! Our V. P.’s in¬ terests lie in music, philosophy, and according to reputable sources, blushing. 41 LEXY VLASSIE: Suave, debonaire, and sophisti¬ cated, Lexy is “Jack of all trades and master of none.” His skiing leaves a lot to be desired, but he lives by the saying, “Rien n’est t r o p difficile pour la jeunesse,” and goes on giving lessons at Aggasiz on ‘How to fracture your skull without fall¬ ing . . For a more complete volume on the life of this in¬ teresting individual consult River Heights’ Yearbook, 1967 edition. XII - 49 MARILYN ALSIP: Marilyn is a fourth year Kel- vinite and she insists that she came back this year to “get through and that’s all.” Maybe it’s because most of her friends came back and she felt lonely. Ambition: U. of M. Fate: A fifth year Kelvinite or a kitchen helper at the Misericordia for the rest of her life. ELLEN AXELROD: Ellen is the only one in our room who can legitimately produce a medical certificate to account for all her absences. Ellen may soon become a Colomba scholar; “a friend in need is a Coles in¬ deed.” Ellen can often be seen with J. K. attending guidance counselling programs. JOHN BAKER: John (“the Gimp”) is reknowned for his driving experiments in aerodynamics in History classes. John has a driving urge to travel, and no doubt the future will find him roaming about the United States in a Volkswagen ... a sort of retarded “Easy Rider.” LINDA BARKER: Linda, the so-called “brain” of the room, dreads English classes. If not occupied in her feud with Marge, she can be seen snickering B. G. as soon as he opens his mouth to speak. Linda should have been called “O Henry” be¬ cause she’s partly sweet but most¬ ly nutty. ROB BARTLETT: Rob, “Senior” is room 49’s athletic star. He was an avid member of the football, basket¬ ball, curling, volleyball, track and field, and tiddley-wink teams (and an influential supporter of the Apathy Club). Rob can often be heard saying, “hit that line”. He is President of room 49’s Laugh-In. BOB BETTNER: Bettner Limited is our room’s Bernhart Mercator, bon vivant and universal authority. Bob can either be found shooting bull with George and Bemie or he can be found doing his homework to Bach records. Bob was the “Pirate King” (or in other words, the “dirty old man”) in Kelvin’s Op¬ eretta this year. STEPHANIE BLONDAL: Steff, our import from Montreal, believes that Manitoba is the coldest place on earth. However, she has warmed up our room with her good looks and personality. Steff is also one of the many in our room who dreads English classes. She wants to go to Ice¬ land and work on a horse farm . . . and she thinks Manitoba is cold!!! We wish her luck in the future. GEORGE BRICKER: George is a full-time liver and a part-time member of Room 49. He was often found at the back of the room playing with his slide rule. Frequently absent from school, George found himself in¬ flicted with chronic writer’s cramp . . . possibly developed by filling out so many absentee forms. 42 LOUISE BRODERICK: Louise must have cost the school a pretty penny this year in sup¬ plying her with late slips. Louise is one of those who believes that you should either excel at school or enjoy it! (She certainly had fun!) Louise was constantly be¬ ing counted absent in the wrong desk. LESLIE CHATTERLY: Leslie was another of room 49’s “irregulars”. Leslie found fre¬ quently through the year that she didn’t know whether she was coming or going. A great support¬ er of many of the girls’ sport teams she can often be seen with N. S. CONNIE FINDLAY: Connie is one of the more athletically inclined people in our room . . . her favourite sport seems to be SKIPPING!! Connie found that car pools are a great asset this year, going and coming from school. She is an¬ other one of the many who turned grub wit h the passing of the new dress code. Her pet peeve is answering French and English questions. NORM GIRARDIN: Norm, commonly known as “Moves Maurice” is noted for his never ending supply of drive-in passes. Norm is room 49’s most outstanding non-entity. When asked about his life he replied to us that, “YES, I am still alive”. Sports minded, his interests range from bear wrestling to alligator fighting. LIZ GRAHAM: Being one of room 49’s more delectable chicks, Liz always con¬ centrates on the most important things in life. If there’s a nip in the air, Liz will drink it. She’s an outstanding member of 49’s “irregulars” club and an avid ski bunny. BRIAN GRAY: B. G. is a student at Kelvin High and has been for three years which is quite enough. JOAN KENNEDY: Our scatterbrained European traveller throws in the old charm when selling advertising for the Yearbook. If Joan isn’t in school or late she’s “Just Laugh’n”. A “mother” to some and a friend to all “bugs”, Joan still can’t figure out where that sweater came from. KITTY KING: Kitty wrote her own write-up this year but it got censored. Be¬ fore she got “ski” sick and left for Banff, her famous trademark was hearing her flip down the halls in her Dr. Scholl’s Ortho¬ pedic Sandals. Kitty left us after Christmas to do her own thing at the Strawberry Experiment and then got Mountain Fever and went to Banff. ANITA GOLDBERG: Anita was an avid supporter of the new dfess code this year, as she gleefully turned grub too. She has a certain knack for bugging a certain teacher. Anita claims she didn’t walk to school one day this year . . . car pools sure are handy! CATHIE LEBREDT: The smallest member of our class surprises everybody by the amount of work she can do. She is very quiet in school but must be absolutely crazy out of school as she has developed an un¬ paralleled set of lungs and is the envy of all the other choir mem¬ bers. 43 JILL MACDONALD: The “Red Rooster’’ has all the pep and steam to head the Cheer¬ leaders this year. Jill hopes to make it to a Toronto boutique to work (she wants desperately to be considered “hip”). Jill is also a friend to all bugs. BERNARD PETERKIN: Berny is 49’s Certs Freak. He dashes into the room every morn¬ ing with his coat on at 8:59.59999. In twenty years from now Berny predicts (and we don’t doubt him) that he will be seen dash¬ ing into class with his coat on at 8:58.59999. GLENYS MACKENZIE: Glenys is a loveable, sweet, sin¬ cere, kind, beautiful, generous, willing, thoughtful, gracious young thing who was active in many thrilling and exciting events at Kelvin this year. (That will be $2.50, please, Glenys.) She insists that she came back to Kelvin to go to Grad again this year . . . the fact remains that she can’t remember too much of last year’s!! PENNY MATSUDA: Penny is one of the more lively members of our class, who lives for week-ends (doesn’t everyone?) Penny never says too much, but when she does . . . When Mr. Hoole askes her questions she goes insane. For that matter she goes insane when any teacher asks her questions. Generally speaking, she is quite insane. JOY PONTIFEX: This girl added a lot of “joy” to our room and was so enthused with her Operetta lead that she wants to come back for another glorious (?) year at Kelvin. It must be those handsome male leads. Whatever Joy decides to do in the future you can be sure it will be with music. JIM PORTER: “Sunny” Jim Porter has a nau¬ seating habit of smiling on Mon¬ day mornings. Fortunately, only those of us who have opened our eyes see him. A genuine asset to our room, Jim’s interests lie in high school education; so much so that he wants to make it his life’s work. CATHY MENCINI: We all think Cathy reverted back to her childhood ways. It could possibly be that she wants those rest periods that Kinder¬ garten children get. Cathy can be seen attending Music classes with “Joy”. SUE MORROW: Kelvin’s Et Cetera Editor was an¬ other mem ber of room 49’s “ir¬ regulars”. Sue gloated over her homeroom activity card until R 8c T was introduced and then she happily turned over a new leaf. She’s never been taught to do up her coat so she froze quite often on the way to school this year. Many of her interests lie outside of Kelvin. “The less you study and learn, the less you forget.” RON RIVERS: Here is another one of Kelvin’s many veterans. He appears to be the quiet intellectual type, but we all know better. Amazingly, he always has his homework done, but never wants to read the answers. He wants to go to University but word has it that he’s up for nominations next year for the Golden Age Award, and if he comes back to Kelvin he’ll be a likely contender. MARY-LYNN STEPHAN: Lynn is the envy of our class as she can miss every French class legitimately. Lynn was a chorus girl in the Operetta and was particularly noted for her backstage antics. She has a smile for everyone, because everyone smiles at her? This girl is bound for a great future. 44 PEGGY TRYON: Peggy, our dashing blonde (Or is it Brunette?) seems to have an easy time at school, accumulating all those I. S. cards by the hand¬ ful and taking Latin by cor¬ respondence. At last there’s some¬ one who comes to school to work!! Peggy is a faithful Kings- way tramper and member of the “Silent Set” of room 49. With her beauty and brains she is bound for a successful future. SANDRA VAN IDERSTINE: Our long legged basketball and discus star is a ‘Parcel’ at Eaton’s. One of the brighter mem¬ bers of our class never shines dull for any of her classmates. Sandy signed up for so many career talks this year that we are sure she’ll be headed for University next year. LESLIE WILDER: Leslie can be seen complaining to S. V. I. about the jewelry de¬ partment at Eaton’s. Leslie flies (?) around everywhere and has been noted for taking trips to Boston and Minneapolis during the school session. She plans to go to University somewhere in the States. XII - 55 LINDA ALLEN: Linda has flighty ideas as she plans to enter airline work next year. She’s an easy gal to get along with; cheerful, that is. Linda can be found stumbling down the halls on Monday morn¬ ings with her eyes half shut. All kidding aside, she’s a great kid and we wish her all the best of luck. MARSHA BIRNIE: Marsh has been recently trying to make herself a “Liliputian”. She can be seen standing beside the pay phone waiting for her beau R. W. to phone her. An avid ski enthusiast, Marsha likes trees an awful lot, except when they get in her way. Her ambition is to make it to University. ISHBEL BISHOP: “Ish”, our bubbling class Presi¬ dent, can usually be heard ex¬ pounding her philosophies on life. Ish has had a busy year as Hon¬ oured Queen of Job’s Daughters, and trying to decide on nursing or journalism for the future; we’re sure she’ll succeed in anything she tries. DIANE BLICK: Diane is a peppy kid who has the pep to be chairman of the Pep Club. She is an avid fan of long coats and short legs, or in other words, maxi coats. Diane keeps telling us that she will be another Florence Nightingale so stay healthy everyone ! URSULA BONSEL: The art of conversation was never the same when Ursula learned how to talk. Unfortunate¬ ly Ursula may have lost the art of conversation but not the power of speech. She has a heart of gold and an “ultra bright” smile. Her plans for the future are “up in the air”, but we’re sure she’ll be a smashing success. GLORIA CANTAFIO: Gloria has a bubbling efferves¬ cent, clear, zesty personality . . . the Uncola maybe?? That kind of spirit adds a lot to many of our dull classes. She can be found working at Eaton’s or at the back of the room trying to do History assignments. She also wants to be a Florence Nightingale, or in other words, a bed-panner. 45 KEN EARDLY: “Bruno” is one of room 55’s top volleyball stars and a member of the renown “Club Turkeys”. He can be spotted sulking at the back of the room after receiving his English mark. He works as a city engineer but we all know there’s more to it than just cutting grass. ROBERT FABRO: A veteran in his own right, Bob will be awarded the “Golden Age” award this year for out¬ standing service as a Kelvin stu¬ dent for the past seven years. He will undoubtedly accept it most graciously. Room 55’s virile Vice- President is often called upon in times of great need. Bob’s pet peeve is Canadian Club. DEBBIE FOREST: Debbie has plans to be a “nirtz”; where she will get this training we are not yet certain. Debbie has a favourite pastime of read¬ ing ‘gems’ in Geography classes or tying hard to keep herself awake. Oh well, have a good time in ‘nirtzing!!’ ALA N GAVRONSKI: A1 is more commonly known as “gronk” . . . the one with the funny glasses. A1 can usually be found in his back yard under the hood of his 53 Olds. Sometimes he comes to school. He is a firm believer of the two great necessi¬ ties of life . . . Wine, Women and . . . um . . . JANICE HAYES: Jan, our amiable sports rep., plans to enter Education and teach little kids. (It’s the only way she’ll be able to defend her¬ self). Her utmost desire in life is to be heard in French class; if at first you don’t succeed, scream. ALAN HILL: A1 is one of room 55’s ‘Men of Many Talents’. He is our rising young hockey buff whose blazing red hair is his finest asset. He can be seen screaming away from school at four in his “powerful hog”. KEN JONES: Ken, otherwise known to us as Alphonse, is a fractured rogue trying to repair his ideals. The man on Kelvin’s four year plan claims he came back for an educa¬ tion, and wonders if he should try to help or destroy teachers. A man of action in his most frequented room. DON KOCH: This amiable, good natured fel¬ low is sure to shine in operatic circles after his performance as “Adam” or “Sam” in Kelvin’s musical productions. Room 55’s French linguist also specializes in the ‘dead’ languages, and is well known in geographic circles for his theory about the famous (or is it ‘infamous?’) Alaskan High¬ way. He can be seen charging down the hall to the Music room. JOHN MADISON: “I came back” and we’re glad he did! During the evenings John can be found acting as Manager of an A P. He is also a fast closing second in the calculating race. Most of John’s weekends are full of life . . . whose? Good luck in the future. DAN NYKON: Dan is another of room 55’s “Tarantulas”, and is also in¬ volved in the great calculating race. His weekends are spent gallivanting around with the boys. Presently he is unemployed and waiting for his welfare cheque. Dan wants to leave the country and live in Argentina. 46 ROBERT PAQUET: Robert is a recent transfer from St. Paul’s who came to Kelvin to observe all the different kinds of people who come here ... it would have been much easier to visit the zoo. Robert doesn’t get excited very often but he manages a few laughs with Al. He enjoys beautiful women. HEATHER ROGULA: This avid tennis fan can be seen in the halls in her blue jeans and sneakers. She is a member of D. J.’s ‘Rioter’s’ along with E. S. N. S. This great fan of Rod McKuen and Schultz plans to enter Interior Design at U. of M. next year. ESTER SMOKOROSKI: Our dark-haired beauty of room 55 can either be seen perform¬ ing operations at the Misericordia Hospital, or laughing it up at the back of Mr. DeBeer’s history class. Known for her bubbling personality and her intelligence in Biology labs, Ester is sure to succeed in anything she tries. BOB SPIERS: Bob is another of 55’s star Hockey players. His pride and joy is his all metal, ballbearing, easy action slide rule, complete in a handsome carrying case. The only trouble is that he can’t calculate with it. In case of emergency he can be found in Safeway’s Bun Shop. BOB ST. MARS: Rob is one person in room 55 who is widely acclaimed for his many attributes. He swims. He is head calculator. He is a Stan¬ ley Boy. He is also sheriff of the “Tarantulas”. There is this campaign going on for Rob to become King of the “Tarantulas” but fate has it that he will re¬ main sheriff for the rest of his life. Rob lives for those biology lab dissections. DOUG STOUT: Doug is a newcomer to Kelvin this year. He is known and re¬ nowned for his artistic caricatures of various teachers. Doug’s main hobby is playing bass guitar but lately he has changed to taking the organ. Good luck to you in the future from all of us. ANNE THORNTON: Annie was disappointed in last year’s write up and decided to come back to Kelvin for another round. In the winter she can be seen looking frantic inside the In¬ vader and screaming “I’ll pound you”. In the summer she can be seen at the Kenora Sals’ with Iris and the gang. “Dooley” has this thing about skinny legs. PAT VERRY: Pat is THE track star of room 55. He is growing a beard for Grad this year . . . that is, if he can make it. Pat is also the head of our last place volleyball team (we have to blame someone for those inexcusable fouls). We all like Pat because . . . ah . . . um . . . well, because he’s in our room? NOREEN STEWART: Our star athletic import from Churchill leaves quite an im¬ pression on the floor. Noreen’s ability in judging directions leaves a lot to be desired as is ex¬ emplified in her attendance rec¬ ord. Noreen can be found stalled in her (father’s) 70 Dart in the middle of St. Boniface in freezing weather. Ambition: “a Pro”. XII-57 47 JEFF BADGER: Jeff did absolutely nothing all year although he was really cool. He is known as somewhat of a masochist, for an unknown rea¬ son. His weekends, however, de¬ stroy the theory that he works hard. NANCY BAXTER: Nancy is room 57’s blonde bomb¬ shell. She enjoys reading and walking to school. Nancy has a great voice and is an avid mem¬ ber of Mr. Standing’s choir. She is certain to succeed in anything she endeavours and we wish her all the best of luck. TOM BULLOCH: “Turkey” is twice as strong as he looks but only half as strong as he thinks. Being room 57’s Football Star, he received many a splint during the season. Tom is also a member of the “Out to Lunch” club. LORRAINE BURGESS: Lorraine is one of the quieter members of our zesty class. She has many qualities that make her stand out from the rest of the class, that is, a good student and has a great attendance record. Lorraine is one that is envied by many in the school. JACKI DAVIDSON: “Foggy” is room 57’s resident cheerleader. Among Jacki’s many and varied attributes, she is an heiress to a pub and a chicken farm. She can usually be seen with Jill the Rooster jumping up and down all over the school. La Riviere seems to be her second home. SUE DOWLER: “Dooler” is as “Good as the best of us, bad as the rest of us!” Our vice-president is also our Red Cross Rep and worked hard on advertising for the yearbook . . . (that charm works wonders !) Absent regularly due to ‘con¬ ventions’, Sue hopes to attend Queen’s this fall. BRENDA EGGETT: Dixie spent most of her time in the Student Council Office this year. Ironically, she had a ter¬ rible lack of interest in any school policies. She is one of the few who really thinks school can get you places, but has yet to show us where. Brenda lives for those weekends and can proudly boast that she can make it home from Aggasiz in approximately 45 minutes. BEV KURZ: Bev’s summer holidays were so busy that she had to continue them into the fall, and thus they conflicted terribly with her school timetable. She discovered another Kelvin in November ... on Staf¬ ford and Grosvenor. Unfortunate¬ ly she withdrew in January, tak¬ ing sort of an extended Christmas holiday. GEORGE KYLAR: Our import from Czechoslovakia plays the role of Alec D’Urber- ville in everyday life. That is, he is a notorious heart stealer. This pastime generally occurs between restful weekends at the Public Safety Building. ROY LESLIE: Roy is one of the rowdier mem¬ bers of our room, and is heard stomping his feet off at the back of the class in utter frustration. And, once again, as we bid adieu to a great fellow member, we smile pleasantly at the nice men in white coats who come to relieve us of our poor Roy, who is usually past help at this stage.- 48 KIRBY McFADYEN: Kirby is one of the more pro¬ ficient teachers of ‘Stanleyism’, and we consider him one of the best and most honoured in that field. He has lately been sport¬ ing “Fuzz” on his upper lip, but keeps telling us that it adds to his intelligence. JIM McILROY: Jim, commonly known as “Barney” is head of the class and does alright in school now and then. Along with the other mem¬ bers of the “Out to Lunch” club, he spends many a great after¬ noon in school. KIRK McINTYRE: Kirk is cool, calm, collected, hand¬ some and rich. Oddly enough, Kirk is also the School Treasurer of the Student Council, and probably one of the hetter em¬ bezzlers in this country. JOHN PAULSEN: John is more commonly known to us as “shorty” and is Room 57’s blond Viking. Star of the volleyball and basketball teams he is often absent due to “ath¬ letic responsibilities”. John is an expert at removing light bulbs. DONNA ROBSON: Donna could always be found sitting at the front of our English class, trying to look intelligent, but it was found to be only a “facade”. What’s the attraction at Red River Community Col¬ legiate, eh? Donna is a good kid but her pet peeve is Yearbook write-ups. JOANNE ROAGAN: Joanne was our gum, certs, chocolate bar, and general food rep this year. She is a great kid and also very intelligent although you’d never know just by talking to her. “A word of wisdom is worth a pound of peanuts.” LYN SAMPSON: Lyn darts into class every morn¬ ing with a bright smile on her face and then is not seen for the rest of the day. She has a bright luminous jeep and is usually liked by everyone she runs into. An¬ other La Riviere regular. HARRY SEREBRIN: Creator of the “Harvonian Theory”. Harry did nothing else all year. Actually his escapades just can’t be mentioned in print. KEN SMITH: Ken is a cool guy and has a V.W. which sort of seems par¬ adoxical doesn’t it? Seriously though Ken is a euphoric ex¬ istentialist. We don’t know what that means but then we don’t know what Ken means either. 49 JOHN STEINMANN: Room 57 has the distinction of having the only live Ethiopian in captivity at Kelvin. J. R. S. is also room 57’s president and grade twelve rep. Everyone loves John?! KELVIN WIEBE: With boots on his feet and glass¬ es on his head, Kelvin is content to stomp through life blindly. JOHN SUMMERFIELD: Room 57’s “bag boy” is re¬ nowned for getting the worst haircuts since Dagwood. John can be seen doing wheelies down Kingsway any day at 4:00 on his fire engine red Honda 90. XII-59 LARRY WABICK: Tall, dark, and fuzzy, Larry has been trying to grove a mous¬ tache since oh . . . well ... oh . . . kind of a long time anyway. We are sure it will grove though — maybe in twenty years but who counts. IAN WATTS: Ian shares the responsibility of gum rep with Jo. “Ace the pilot” Ian’s banal comments are a source of “comic relief” in English class. Of course anything disturbing classes is a relief. HAROLD WHALLEY: Harold is quiet, but underneath he’s a tiger. He is a fine student and a wonderful chap . . . and he pays well for writeups. JIM ANTONICK: Jim is more commonly known to the rest of our class as “Parogy”. Unfortunately, Jim was sorely missed by the entire Clipper Football Squad and Kelvin’s foot¬ ball fans this year. Good luck and a promising future lay in store for Jim! FRED BRENNAN: Fred is the John Claude Killey of Room 59. Tie can often be found in Kelvin’s corridors sizing up every little thing, no matter who she is. Fred can also be found “Pirating” around the mu¬ sic room. RON CLARK: 50 LOUISE DESORMEAUX: This cute little chick can never tell whether she’s coming or go¬ ing (to school that is!). Louise has a bubbly personality and a smile for everyone. Combined with her good looks and charms she is bound to be a hit! ! DOUG EPPS: Most of Room 59 never knew that our trustworthy Red Cross Rep. “indulged” until . . . Mrs. Olsen seems to think that Doug is a great discipline problem and knowing him, the rest of the class are inclined to agree with her. MARIE FORBES: PETER GIROUX: Pete can usually be found deco¬ rating Kelvin’s hallowed halls when he’s not out with the boys. A man with good connections among his teachers, doesn’t find any problems in having a good weekend. Pete sleeps most of Monday, Tuesday . . . RON GREGORY: One of the back benchers of our room occupies himself with cross¬ word puzzles. Ron always has a good word for everyone. His am¬ bition is to publish a crossword puzzle magazine. Fate: to end up hanging them on Room 59’s bul¬ letin board. WENDY HARRIS: An avid school goer, Wendy spends countless noon hours as an artist bothering Mrs. D. Al¬ though her ambition is to own the Garrick, she seems fated to usher all her life. Well Wendy, you could always play basketball for a living. LARRY HARVEY: MICHEAL JUNKER: When at school, Mike tries hard (to think about not being in school). An “orderly” kind of guy, he spends his out of school hours at the Misericordia hospi¬ tal. Mikes future is a deep dark secret to us but we wish him luck at whatever he plans to do. PAT KENT: JIM McCULLOCH: Without people like Jim, many of us would find great difficulty in determining who the straight people are. However, is Jim straight? 51 MAUREEN McILROY: Maureen is one of the smaller members of our class, however, she is very big personality wise. To paraphrase an old cliche, “good things come in small pack¬ ages.” Of course then so can a time bomb. KEVIN TWOMEY: One of the shorter members of our class has a very good person¬ ality, very good looks, is intelli¬ gent (and also has a very good left hook). Kevin’s greatest am¬ bition in life is to grow up instead of out. DAWN PHALEN: There’s no doubts in our minds that “dawn” is not the time she gets up, which may account for her pink slips always showing. Always talking about the latest guy, Dawn insists she will never marry. Dawn left us after Christ¬ mas for better things. STEVEN POWELL: When at school or when not with his future, Steve is a quick dis¬ sector in Biology Lab. Steve’s fate (and ambition) is to be a happily married man. Steve also left us to work toward his future. LYNN BECKER: Chaque jour vers l’Enfer nous descendons d’un pas. Sans horreur, a travers des tenebres que puent. MARG BOYD: the halls clear as people scramble to safety ...6...5...4... streaking down the halls, books, boots and limbs trailing behind her ... 3 ... 2 ... 1 .. . Marg slides into home plate! Marg is our loveable, absent- miTided girls’ sports rep. and “champ” er is it “chump” of the Girls’ Volleyball Team??! GARY SHELDON: CLAIRE CARMICHAEL: Our future elementary school teacher is an avid curler, swim¬ mer and skater. After a cheerful “Good-morning” she starts the day off searching for someone who has done their homework. Her favorite day is Saturday when her activities require no homework. CHRIS SMITH: Chris is a good guy who never says anything unless it’s intellec¬ tual. Chris seldom speaks. Chris came to school one day with a haircut and a week later we dis¬ covered it was him and not a new member in our class. DON COOK: Don came from Ontario expect¬ ing the worst and so far he knows for sure that it isn’t the best. Don was let down to find out that Winnipeg isn’t really a town of farmers’ daughters. Next year he hopes to attend (?) in a General Science course. NANCY COUPLAND: People always say, “a good lis¬ tener is usually thinking about something else.” Nancy, one of our quieter members, takes an active part in the Kelvin Choirs and was also in Kelvin’s musical production this year, and (?)... (we’re not allowed to mention those kind of outside activities!) JOAN CUTTS: Joan is a punctual character and she is always ready with a smile, “So near (at heart) and yet oceans away”, she waits anx¬ iously for the LETTER every day. The Red Dart will escort this gal off to the University of . . . next year. ALETHA DONALDSON: “Del” is one of those people who are hard to get a hold of in school. Dedicated to the arts, she spends much of her time develop¬ ing those various talents (?). But somehow she manages to turn in every English essay (ush) on time. JOHN EWING: More than Romeo loved Juliet, John Ewing loves his Buick. “He loveth most what valueth least.” John has a dazzling variety of undershirts — even enzymes won’t get them clean. John’s ambition is to go into detergent testing. Fate: becoming a soap- sud. LIZ GORNIK: Liz is Room 61’s champion smiler, and it’s no wonder! Liz spends her noon hours at school in the girls’ washroom brushing her teeth. Is that a ‘sex appeal’ smile Liz? An avid cheerleader, Liz plans to head out to the U. of M. next fall. CRAIG HUNTER: Craig is based on the hypothesis that the Good, the Whole and the Truth must by necessity be de¬ rived from the basis of the philosophy that whatever is dis¬ covered to be, need not be mis¬ taken or misconstrued with what is naturally preconceived. MUNCI ISFORD: This amiable fellow is always in the centre of things. Like the centre of the volleyball court when he should be serving. In spite of all these inhibitions, Munci does have some . . . er . . . and enjoyment. He likes driving, to and from the repair shop. DAVID KELLENDONK: “It can be seen that since two blacks do not equal a white, then, two negatives cannot pos-J sibly equal a positive,” says) Pastor K.-donk. Saturday night finds the lad scrunthunting. Na- Na-Na-Na-Na. JILL KERNAHAN: Jilly’s charter founding finding club doesn’t even flash V signs at all . . . not quite right, what would the nice man say? Nasty? She’s a founding father hall of famer, classical non-keener not at all even truth of victory. Besides, the value of zero is decreasing. 53 JOHN LAWLER: After moving to Canada from Sweden John had only one thing to say, “I wanna go back”. Probably because he had a Swedish Blonde waiting for him. John hopes to become a lawyer, but will probably end up as a Janitor in the Law Courts Build¬ ings. ELINOR LAWSON: Elinor lives in a house, is the representative of the “weaker sex” on the Reach for the Top team, is one of 61’s greater geniuses, accompanies the operet¬ ta, and gives buns to the elephants when she goes down to the zoo. DEREK LONGFIELD: Derek is a great guy and the world’s first and only surviving tooth transplant recipient. He in¬ curred this injury while playing hockey as right defensive goal¬ post. Derek’s motto is “EGO SUM MAXIMUS.” Derek has a great sense of humour. JOHN MacPHERSON: John didn’t do a 3,000 yard I.M. (individual moustache), since he had not trained for it. Perhaps it was that headless vending. It did not matter. Still lots of primeval mudignores synthetic slimes. Ap¬ ple-pie and kindred keennesses. Now it can be told. Kalue! DAVID MARTIN: David has found that durig teh yare hsi brane sha serousley dtereorated itro basoltue man- ingly dibbling myphotismic sounability constintalion abso- phisgophilism. MEREDITH NORTON: “Miss Shoes,” our bouncy blonde with a broken ankle, has a ter¬ rible habit of falling off stages,??? Our protege from private school relishes the assortment at Kelvin. Good luck, Meredith. TERRY PARSONAGE: It’s another wild Kelvin Football Game . . . the team star is mak¬ ing another great play . . . Harold Steiman, you’ve done it again! Headlining T. P.’s fa¬ vourite activities are: attending Re Cross meetings, reading Funk and Wagnell before retiring to bed and having a warming “poon” by his side on a cold winter’s night. DONALD REID: Don is widely acclaimed for his high marks in Physics ... or so he tells us. His favourite hobby is making payments on his Honda 350. He’ll probably be at it for years. Don’s ambition is to become a doctor but we’ll most likely find him as an assistant to a school nurse or still making payments on his Honda. ROBIN SAUNDERS: Robin is Room 61’s Space Odyssey. When he plays, he plays hard. When he rests, he rests hard. When he works, he rests hard. When he isn’t resting, you’ll find him at Eaton’s Pet Shop usually selling misfit an¬ imals to innocent little kids. CHRISTINE SCHMIDT: Chris is the girl who doesn’t do too much (in school that is, but outside . . .!) Her greatest am¬ bition is to keep up with the class in Chemistry. Good luck, Chris! We all wonder what she does on weekends? (Play bridge maybe?!) 54 DANIEL SHAPIRO: Dan’s motto is “Live for tomor¬ row cause today may never hap¬ pen.” Dan’s ambition is to ride off into the sunset with a beau¬ tiful girl in his arms. Dan swore they’d never catch him. Dan was also “Fred” in the Operetta. DUNCAN SNIDAL: Dune completes the hockey team at the position of Left Defensive Goalpost. His uncanny agility at this position earned him all-star recognition, for three seasons. In the off-season, Dune keeps in shape as a star buzzer pusher. Our Reach-For-The-Topper says “It’s safer than pushing L.S.D.” ROGER TOEWS: Roger spends most of his time by fixing up a phony I. D. so that he can buy some antifreeze. With antifreeze like that who needs a car. If Roger can suc¬ cessfully make a phony. I. D., he’ll be able to go into business. Keep working Rog. SANDRA UHRYN: Sandra is one of the friendlier members of our class. Her en¬ thusiastic participation in curl¬ ing often causes Thursday to be a “bustling” day. Next year Sandra is going to try to see the light as she plans on entering the Faculty of Science at the U. of M. JOHN WUJEC: It’s John’s philosophy that it’s better to keep quiet and let everybody think you’re a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt. You can find this bright lad anytime at his hobby, in Mrs. Menzies closet, trying to drink his homemade antifreeze. “Yeh, man!” 55 Batchelor Bilton Bowman Michael Lawrence Macintosh McCallum Kobyn McCombe Paul Paskewitz Stewart Pierce Stephen Rosenfield Neil Robinson Baldwin Zachanowich Backhouse Arenson Arenson Murray Delarue Hammond Ellsworth Gwynne Gordon Tomlin M 1 A V™ ft-il ihsi | William Heimbeckei Robert Kitchen Donna Marohn Marlyne Marrese Christine Salomonsen McLenn; ■ 1 ssSLm Hi ffi 1 m 1_J fm ml Henning Grimstrup Stewart MacPherson Loraine McIntosh Yvonne Genthon Bruce Mastgrnjan Michael Mitchell ... f ' d i wk WL A m |?1 l31| 1 1 % jJ L k ANB 1 jb Kga Mary Donald Lisa Atkins Benham Bennett Barbara MacDonald Ian MacLean Michael Parsons Leslie Pitchford Clifford Swanlund Margaret Biberdorf Mary Wiswell Doreen Michael Bracken Cardinal Bottomly t J Sr - i 1 s W A dlL J L J mm w jn i 31 1 _j U Barbara Holt Jim Hodson McMillan Newfeld McTaggart Neufeld Sjolander Michael Crawford David Gardiner Peder Grimstrup Wendy O’Malley Greg Paskewitz Michael Paskewitz Tim Pfrimmer Tony Molekamp Barbara Routley Bob Scribberas Stfeven Toothill Barbara Szeszvcki Roy Thompson Robert Allen Fred Thom a Thuraya DeBeer Margaret Elliott David Dacquisto McCallum Martindale [ml Gail Mireau William Nicholls Suzanne Perrin Bob Richardson Richard Stockfisch Warkentin Turner Windatt Warkentin Wade Turner Robbie Barkwell Barbara Bateman Butterworth Davidner Susan Falkner Christa Jordan Gary Kumka Robert Haraszti Pam Luckhurst Lubimiv Barbara Prouse Debbie Rattrya Pam Proctor Ben Slubinski Ainsley Simmons .

Since ' late in September we have been printing at the University in the U.M.S.U. print shop. This new arrangement makes it possible for an event which takes place on Monday to be front page news in the Et Cetera Monday morning. In addition, the Et Cetera is now one of very few high school papers which is pl anned, written, laid out, set up, and partially printed by the students alone. The Et Cetera has also experimented with color for the first time. Although over 20,000 papers were printed of the operetta issue before the color was set right, we feel the introduction of color has made the Et Cetera a more professional looking paper. However, the most important changes and experiments which have taken place in the Et Cetera this year have been in the content. Early in the year, the editorial board decided that the Et Cetera should branch out from Kelvin, and include outside issues that were more relevant to students, more relevant than lists of the highest averages in the school, for example. Through our editorials and feature stories and interviews we have tried to present thought-provoking articles to the students. Occasionally, we have even overstepped our authority to present issues which we felt needed to be pointed out. At this point, I would like to personally thank Mrs. Oleson and Mr. Engbrecht, our staff advisors, and Mr. Thompson, our publisher, for their help during the year, but, most of all, for their interest in the paper. Although conflicts were bound to arise over certain issues, our staff advisors provided us with the freedoms that were needed to produce a good paper. In conclusion, I hope that next year’s staff, with their experience from this year, will be able to further the production of a more professional paper, and that the student body will realize the importance of communica¬ tion through the Et Cetera. Respectively Submitted 84 Features Editors: Elinor Lawson and Charles Art Editor Jill Kernahan • IP 1 P y ' m k . j|. y !m [ t .. v . Jj DUNCAN SNIDAL LAURENCE SOKOLOFF Reach For The Top Off The Cuff The editors of “Off the Cliff” were able to put out only one issue this year. Although the Staff asked for contribu¬ tions early in the fall, the response was fairly poor. However, enough articles were collected for a spring issue. The editors would like to thank our Staff Advisor, Mr. Derraugh, all those who contributed stories and poems and a special thanks to the typists for their good work. Next year the Staff hopes to put out more than one issue and urge everyone to submit anything or¬ iginal. This year, the editors of “Off The Cuff” have tried new approaches in the selection of material for this maga¬ zine. Unlike former years, submissions were made directly through English teachers and many manuscripts which would have been relegated to the corners of a locker were brought to light. The Poetry and Short Story Contest, which was introduced partly to stimulate interest in the magazine, was not altogether successful in the Short Story category. However, it did produce a surprising number of original and altogether quite interesting poems, many of which appear on the following pages. Perhaps important is the fact that the editors did not select material purely for its literary value but rather tried to achieve a cross-section of Kelvin styles, opinions, and thoughts in compo- ' sitions. We feel that “Off The Cuff” can become a vehicle for student expression through creative writing. At any rate, we sincerely hope that you will find this year’s edition interesting, enjoyable, and, above all, entertaining. — The Editors REACH FOR THE TOP Kelvin, reigning provincial champion, was undefeated in regional play for a second year. Every one hesitates and worries about answering incorrectly in public. For success in this game, the human tendency must be beaten out of competitors and outrageous confidence instilled. In pursuing these ideals, the team received exceptional sup¬ port from Mr. Alward who supervised the four to five hour weekly practice sessions, and from Mr. Unruh who provided the team with the best buzzer system imaginable. To develop competition at practices, Mr. Alward instituted a two-team system with a team composed basically of Grade eleven students constantly trying to beat the “A” or competition team. Kelvin victories this season were against Altona, Westwood, and St. John’s for the Flight Two Championship, and Garden City, River East and f inally St. Paul’s for the regional championship. For the Garden City game, Daniel Shapiro replaced Elinor Lawson. If When successful against the Brandon region champion, Kelvin will advance to the National Championships in Ed¬ monton. So far the team has won books for the school library, scholarship money, and non-possession for one year of the CBC trophy, theoretically awarded. In a school geared primarily for Youth scream for the team support, help in the form of questions was extremely difficult to find. A large segment of the school population seemed perfectly satisfied that the way to help the team was to watch them on television. Fortunately, up to eight literate students were found who worked along with Mr. Alward to provide questions for daily competition. Right or Wrong you can ' t beat the buzzer. 87 Chess Club This year the Chess Club was great. There were two big tournaments, Barry Towns winning both of them. The membership increased along with ac¬ tivity in ’70, and I hope to see more next year. All the members this year wish to thank Mr. Emeruwa, the staff member — who also plays a mean game of chess. Grade Twelves — watch out for Barry Townsl Rob Solomon, President, Chess Club ’69-70 THE PUBLIC SPEAKING AND DEBATING CLUB The Public Speaking and Debating Club had a very successful schedule this year. Weakly meetings were partially reinstated, and there were several practice debates. There were also two formal debating contests both of which were won by Dave Martin and Dune Snidal. Martin and Snidal went to compete in Port Hope in January and were very successful, but lost out early in the KIWANIS run off. President Brian Gray is very happy with this year’s effort, and see s an excellent future for the club. K.G.R.S. K.G.R.S.’s second year of operation was run by members of the student body soley for the entertainment of Kelvin’s noon-hour regulars. A survey distributed one noon-hour gave the operators an idea of just what the people did and did not want to hear, thus giving them a basis as to what records to buy with their $50.00 grant from the stu¬ dent council. Technical difficulties were ex¬ perienced off and on during the year but with the exception of one ten day period they were quickly repaired. Next year K.G.- R.S. hopes to produce a more balanced vol¬ ume and quality of music by positioning speakers all around the lunchroom instead of having them just at the booth. Red Cross This has been a successful year for the Red Cross Club because it saw the re-arrangement of the past execu¬ tive organization into a more workable system. There were six other projects, also, ranging from doughnut and hotl dog sales to helping to finance Kelvin’sl debating team to a trip to Port Hope, Ontario. This is very possibly the last year for the Red Cross and any con- ( structive ideas concerning the donation of our funds are requested. 89 FRESHIE DAY CHRISTMAS SHOW The planning for Christmas Capers began slowly as teachers felt they had both planned and participated in the previous programs and that year’s program should involve more student participation. The committee planned a very well received program. A Laugh-In routine, put on by the teachers, began the Capers. This was followed by a folk-singing combina¬ tion of Di Halter and Doug MacKenzie. The men’s choir performed under guest conductor, Mrs. Mensies. The Drama Club presented a skit, and a presentation was made to Mr. Smith, retiring chief engineer. The program closed to the sound of the Cast From Potty Band. fm � ■ rimm 1 1 Rw ' ■ • 1 iffi f-ll in • PiTrUiBB 1 ’’ irffl L 1 j 1 ) 1 f ■ . sss? School Elections Participation and communication were the two major issues of this year’s Presidential cam¬ paigns. Garth McCombe and Mary Croteau respectively, were the only two candidates for the Presidential seat on the Student Council. They ran as single tickets due to the fact that both their Vice-Presidential candidates were unable to run. Campaigning took place the week of May 25th and voting was done in the morning, at noon, and at four on May 28th. Ballots were counted that evening and the results an¬ nounced the following day. Mary Croteau was elected the new President with Garth McCombe as Vice. For the first year Grade reps were elected the term prior to their office. There were no cam¬ paigns as such for the Grade reps but speeches were presented in the auditorium prior to the voting for these positions. Whether or not this idea is beneficial will soon be decided next fall. 95 Reflections ’70 Through the active participation of ' many Kelvin students and teachers, closing exercises for Graduation ’70 were a great success. The ceremonies were somewhat shorter than last year’s and despite the heat it was considerably more enjoyable. As in tradition, the Grad Car parade got underway at 7:30 and travelled from Brock Street to Kelvin. After much deliberation it was decided that Ester Smokoroski, due to ob¬ vious hours of painstaking work, won the com¬ petition. For the first time in Kelvin’s history the Graduation dance was held at the Fort Garry Hotel with Lou Dickson and the boys enter¬ taining. After the dance many retired to jeans and sweaters and had a terrific time on a cruise to Lockport aboard the Paddlewheel Queen. All in all Graduation ’70 turned out to be a smashing success and a great way to remember the last days at Kelvin.

However, these enthusiastic people worked hard and emerged victorious from the city meet held at Elmwood. Led by Laurel Ridd, the team went on to capture the provincial championship. The race was a grueling one and a half mile course laid over muddy streams, slippery hills and old motorcycle trails in the Turtle Mountains of Miami, Manitoba. Team spirit never faltered, and the girls triumphed for the second year in a row. In fact, Miss Suttie was so confident of her team’s ability, that she left the trophy at home. For the second year “running” Kelvin boys were able to place in the top three teams in the city. Running second to Daniel Mac, the team proceeded to the provincials at Miami. Their performance, for the exception of Garth McCombe, left something to be desired but their excellent showing in the five city meets had already proven their ability. In one city meet the team placed first led by Tim Stuart coming second. Next year’s team has good prospects coming from the freshmen and Grade ll’s.

Individually all the players had good potential but as a team they did not play well.

MISSING: Scott Frith. It was late August when the 1969 edition of the Kelvin Clippers sprang into action. Under rookie Head Coach Long those who survived that brutal pre-school training were ready for school to begin in order to pre¬ pare for the season. Through graduation Coach Long lost a majority of last year’s team, so he was forced to place the burden on many rookies. The schedule opened against Sisler and Churchill, the two pre-season favorites, so the rookies had to learn fast. The team worked hard, yet to little avail. Losing 34-0, and 29-0, respectively, the season seemed a total loss. However, there was something, which everyone noticed, which had a bearing on the rest of the team’s per¬ formance — they did not quit and their spirit was phenominally high. Still having confidence, the squad led by Terry Parsonage as quarterback, Harold Steiman on offence, and Kim Orris, Steve Toothill on defence, rallied to demolish Daniel Mac 26-12, whip St. Paul 8-5, and defeat Gordon Bell 13-0. The season boiled down to the last game with the Grant Park Pirates. For Kelvin to make the play-offs the squad would have to beat them twice. The “Big Red Machine” fought valiantly yet they could not get the nec¬ essary Argo bounce to win the big games. Final score, Grant Park 13, Kelvin 0. Looking forward the team has many veterans returning. Next year, Coach Long will have a veteran studded team with experience under the Long system. Looking back Coach Long summed up the year’s team by saying, “The team had spirit, they never quit.” 103 105 Girls’ Volleyball Team Girls, ... girls, . . . girls — would you believe the Freshmen volleyball tryouts? Well, those freshmen girls proved to be the best representatives for Kelvin’s “Big Red” in many a wandering moon. Not only could they bump, set and spike with the best of them, but they almost captured the city title (loosing to an envigoured Gordon Bell team). Almost is never quite the same as winning, but our girls can still be proud of the results. How ’bout a cheer from Kelvin’s superior spectators! BACK ROW: (left to right) Pam Hosfield, Liz Essery, Karen Schmidt, Cathy Newsome, Connie Lebrun, Lome Vanlderstine. FRONT ROW: Nancy Groff, Nancy Downe, Kim O’Brien, Alison Essery, Val Fogg. Bump . . . set. . . spike — and Kelvin girls strike again! After a precarious start the Varsity girls’ volleyball team struggled to gain a foothold on the city and provin¬ cial tournaments. When league play finished, the girls found themselves in second place with a chance at the city title. Unfortunately, Kelvin’s powerful rival, Chur¬ chill High seized the title. However, both Kelvin and Churchill represented the Winnipeg School Div. 1 in the provincial tournament. The Kelvin girls played su¬ perior volleyball, but could not quite grasp a playoff position. Congratulations volleyball players for an ex¬ ceptional effort! Back row: Barb Briggs, Marg Boyd, Debbie Jones, Leslie Chatterly, Mary Cox. Front row: Debbie Stover, Barb Lay, Faye Finch, Noreen Stewart, Janice Ursel. 106 Boys’ Volleyball Team When coach Baluta selected his volleyball team this season it was evident that he was planning for the future. Over two-thirds of the players were first year members with Don Fryers and John Paulsen being the only experienced veterans. Al¬ though there is great potential in every one of the rookies, they still tended to handcuff the overall performance of the team. The absence of a regu¬ lar first-string platoon can also be noted for below par performances. The spikers would sometimes have to adjust to a variety of setters throughout the course of a match. After the jubilation of victory the boys were first in the south division, and entered the city championships as heavy favourites. The other teams competing were Daniel McIntyre, Sisler, and St. John’s. In the semi-finals Kelvin easily swept the 2 games from Sisler before advancing to the finals, against Daniel Mac. The outcome was never in doubt as Kelvin swept the 2 games to retain their city crown for the fifth year in a row. After the jubilation of victory the boys were found hard at practice for the provincials on November 29. Kelvin’s team was unofficially ranked in the top four in the tournament. Dakota, Miles Mac, and Vincent Massey were expected to be stiff competition. Kelvin’s first game of the provincials was against high ranked Dakota. In two thrilling games Kelvin showed championship form in gaining a split. In the next games they also split against a mediocre Steinbach team, and in the next series they easily disposed of Brandon in two straight games. Kelvin’s final set of games was against Transcona. In order to advance to the semi-finals they had to split. But the ball was bouncing for Transcona as they swept two games from Kelvin thus eliminating Kelvin from the championship playoffs. Although this year’s volleyball season was not as prosperous as last, Coach Baluta believes that a provincial crown may be hidden in next year’s prospects.

Led by the City’s top scorer and all-star team member John Paulsen, the team was hampered by inconsistent play and meagre crowds for their games away. Losing against the poorer teams in the league the squad showed their strength at home winning two of the contests and narrowly losing the third, which went into overtime. The year was high¬ lighted when the famous Winnipeg Blue Bombers invaded Kelvin and after a close game they pulled out a win. Fin¬ ishing their regular season play with a record of 3 wins against 5 losses the experience gained this year will be in¬ valuable when next year Kelvin’s Varsity Squad wins the City Title.

FRONT ROW: Bob Kowal, Craig Campbell, Peter Vogels, John Paulsen, Laurie Rogers, Chris Harrington. The ’70 edition of the Freshman Team, molded by Bomber Star Glen Orris and former Kelvinite Neil Atchi¬ son, finished the season with an admirable record of 7 wins and 2 losses, thereby gaining a berth in the league’s semi¬ finals. The team played well all year and there was no doubt of their play-off potential; despite a few “close calls” against Gordon Bell and Daniel Mac. In their two game total point semi-final match with St. John’s the team played somewhat below par and were beaten here at home in the second and final game. To cite any individual stars would be impossible as everyone played well all season. However, there is one notable in Bob Parsonage who was selected as an all-star. As for next year, if the prospects were as good as they were this year it should be another great season for the Freshman Team.

They lost to St. James Collegiate with marks of 9land 90, and Gordon Bell with marks of 90 and 88. The girls sang the French Canadian folk song “Un Canadien Errant” and the Scottish folk song “Kelvin Grove”. The adjudicator, Harold Dexter spoke of a beautiful blending and excellently controlled vocal line. Dexter felt that the first selection was most im¬ pressive. The second selection was well presented though spoiled by some sharpness in the two part verse. GRADE ELEVEN AND TWELVE — winners of Ensemble Class The first ensemble composed of girls in grades eleven and twelve came first in their ensemble class with marks of 90 and 90. The girls sang “Young Love Lies Sleeping” by Somervill and Schubert’s “Laughter and Tears”. Ranken Bushby praised the girls for their good beginning, chord- ing, balance and words. In the second selection Bushby felt that the dynamics needed watching but otherwise he found the singing excellent. Since one of the three entries in the class was absent, Mr. Bushby asked that both ensembles sing “Young Love Lies Sleeping” as an extra treat for the audience. GRADE ELEVEN AND TWELVE ENSEMBLE Kelvin had two entries in the ensemble class, and as is fitting for a “school of champions,” cap¬ tured both first and second in this class. This ensemble placed second with marks of 89 and 88. They sang “Young Love Lies Sleeping” by Somer¬ vill and “Lift Thine Eyes” by Mendelsohn. The girls excellently sang their first song and adjudi¬ cator Ranken Bushby thought that the chording, blend and words were all good. Unfortunately the second selection went slightly sharp but Bushby felt the girls sang very well. I Ml ! GIRLS’ FESTIVAL CHOIR AND MIXED FESTIVAL CHOIR The girls’ chorus again returned the James Cox Aikens Shield to Kelvin with their per¬ formance against Grant Park girls and Gor¬ don Bell girls. They sang the test piece “Ships of Arcady” by Michael Head and as their own selection sang “Laughing Song” by Harold Noble. The adjudicator of the class, Harold Dexter, said that the test piece showed a wonderful control of dynamics, chording and colour. He felt that the girls’ excellent tone would have gained perfection from more definition. In spite of this he felt the girls sang an unforgettable performance. In “Laughing Song” Dexter said that this was a wonderful performance for any choir let alone of this age. The girls enjoyed sing¬ ing the piece very much and Dexter felt that it had an abundance of vitality, sensitivity, and technique. He praised Mr. Standing by saying “I can only congratulate an inspired teacher.” The girls won the class with marks of 89 and 90. In the mixed choir classification, Kelvin sang against Grant Park. The choir sang the test piece “Feasting I Watch” by Edward Elgar and “The Silver Swan” by Orlanda Gibbons. The adjudicator, Harold Dexter, commented on the excellent range of tone present and the careful attention to details. The vocal colour was resourceful and imaginative but the choir had a tendency to sharpen throughout the piece. Dexter felt that “this was quite a performance for any school.” In their second selection the choir again went sharp which prevented the piece from having its full effect. In this piece Dexter felt that there was an excellent sense of melodic line in all parts which were also well defined. The choir placed first with marks of 88 and 85. Since both choirs won their respective classes, they competed for the Earl Grey Trophy for junior and senior high school choruses. Even though both choirs sang very well, they lost the trophy to John Henderson Junior High School. Because of their dynamic performance the mixed choir was asked to sing at the festival’s final concert in the Centennial Concert Hall. 0 GRADE TEN CLASSROOM CHOIR The grade ten classroom choir was composed of girls from rooms 4, 35, and 43. Although hampered by lack of practise time, they did a fine job singing, finishing third with marks of 84 and 84. Adjudicator Harold Dexter felt that the con¬ trast between the two pieces, “Majestic Night” by A. Scarlatti and “The Sirens” by Eric Thiman, could have been much greater, but that the girls did a very creditable job. 121 Beatrice Taubner Daniel Shapiro Rob Vipond Bob Bettner ACT I On the south coast of England, a group of pirates POUR, OH POUR, THE PIRATE SHERRY and make merry over the fact than FREDERIC, bound to the pirate band when he was a boy, is released from his pirate indentures and can return to civilization. Ruth, his nursemaid, confesses that it was through her mistake that WHEN FRED ' RIC WAS A LITTLE LAD he was bound to the pirates, whose leader declares that it is OH, BETTER FAR TO LIVE AND DIE under the pirate flag. Frederic, after denouncing the FALSE ONE Ruth, comes upon a bevy of beautiful maidens to whom he appeals eloquently in his song OH, IS THERE NOT ONE MAIDEN BREAST . The only one of Major-General Stanley ' s daughter who feels a moral obligation to rescue the POOR WAND ' - RING ONE Frederic is MABEL. While the two lovers exchange fond profes¬ sions, the girls pretend not to listen while singing the delightful song, HOW BEAUTIFULLY BLUE THE SKY . Suddenly, however, the pirates appear and seize the girls by declaring HERE ' S A FIRST-RATE OPPORTUNITY TO GET MAR¬ RIED WITH IMPUNITY . Mabel cautions the pirates that their father is a Major-General, and MAJOR GENERAL STANLEY appears and announces that In short, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral, I AM THE VERY MODEL OF A MODERN MAJOR-GENERAL . He uses his quick mind and tells the pi- Since the pirates are all orphans themselves they let daughters go free. sneral Alison Mclnnes Glenys Mackenzie Liz Stebbing 122 Barb Pearce ACT II In a ruined chapel on the General ' s estate, the Major-General suffers from remorse at having tricked the pirates, while his daughters beseech him to DRY THE GLISTENING TEAR . To help capture the pirates, Frederic summons the police, whose SERGEANT declares WHEN THE FOEMAN BARES HIS STEEL they uncomfortable feel, and they find the wisest thing is to slap their chests and sing Tarantara! But the Pirate King and Ruth reveal to Frederic a MOST IN¬ GENIOUS PARADOX by which he is, since he was born in leap year, only five years old, and through his strong sense of duty he rejoins the pirate band. Mabel appeals to Frederic to stay and not leave her in her song and duet STAY, FRED ' RIC, STAY and AH, LEAVE ME NOT TO PINE ALONE AND DESO¬ LATE . But Frederic leaves, promising to return to her when he reaches the age of twenty-one. The police reappear and their Sergeant sings the famous WHEN A FELON ' S NOT ENGAGED IN HIS EMPLOYMENT . WITH CAT-LIKE TREAT the pirates appear with an intent to kill the Major-General, who comes from his bed in dressing-gown to discover what has awakened him. A fierce struggle ensues between pirates and police, and the police are over¬ come. But the Sergeant appeals to the pirates ' loyality by charging them to yield in Queen Victoria ' s name. The pirates turn out to be noblemen who have gone wrong, and all ends happily as Mabel is united with Frederic and the Major- Charles Hayter Joy Pontifax MOMENTS n w Bf M r £ f v ’ +? f|Sk Hf t nv 1 ♦ % ' jHEBSi ' _____ w “Off The Cuff” Reprints The Survey The ship glided down to land in an empty field during the fourth watch, just as the light¬ ening horizon foretold of the coming down. Immediately the Captain went about supervising the various activities, although everyone already knew his ap¬ pointed task. As a precaution, readings were taken of the jA planet ' s atmospheric composi- tion, temperature and surface pressure. These proved satisfac¬ tory, although heavy apparel was warranted by the cool temperature. Covered by the Bumble ' s guns, Lt. Ferg led the landing party out onto the surface. In¬ cluded in this group were a language expert, a bio-chemist, an official from the Colonial Board and his assistant, a journalist, and three crewmen carrying sidearms. Thirty units from the ship the bio-chemist detected some form of animal life, and followed up his lead. The ship had become obscured in low drifting mist when they came upon the creature. Lt. Ferg reminded them to adjust their government-issue mirror-simulators so their appearance would be changed to imitate the appearance of the animal, thereby preventing undue alarm. It certainly doesn ' t look intelligent, remarked the journalist. Indeed, the creature was quadruped and completely covered with coarse, short hair, with two short stubby horns, a well-developed snout, and a long, constantly waving tail. The language expert, Phoem by name, approached first and, swishing his tail in an encouraging manner, attempted to engage the thing in friendly conversation. You don ' t have to bother , interrupted the bio-chemist. This is obviously not the planet ' s ruling life form. Phoem ' s colleague was correct; all efforts went unrewarded. The creature merely chewed steadily, fixing them with a baleful stare and moaning loudly. Frustrated, Phoem suggested they move on in search of a more intelligent form. The next animal encountered seemed more promising. Observed at a distance, it walked upright on its hind legs, swinging its forelimbs at its sides. Almost hairless, it wore some sort of clothing, and as it came closer, the travellers could see that its face was round and sharply featured. Ugly-looking fellow, eh? opened the journalist as they all cha nged their forms. Phoem motioned him to be quiet as he strode forward to meet the alien. The latter first, much to the amazement of the others. Howdy! What ' re you folks doin out in my pasture this early in the mornin ' ? Phoem had to think fast, as his knowledge of this language had been acquired secondhand, and there¬ fore was limited. n Hello friend, he offered. We are merely travellers from a far-distant land, and wish to do no harm. Oh, the alien replied, I coulda sworn I seen a hull herd o ' Jersies out here a minute ago. Just the mist, I reckon, playin ' tricks again. He looked over Phoem ' s shoulder at his companions and his eyes narrowed in suspicion. Don ' t look much like tourists to me. (At this, the Official ' s assistant realized they all wore the same clothing, and changed the color of his overalls from blue to orange, to avoid suspicion). The alien continued, unruffled. You shore you ain ' t fum the guvment? We are merely travellers from a far-distant land. We are conducting a- the interpreter cast about for the word, -a survey. The alien was silent, plainly digesting this information. At length he spoke up. Like in them magazines, huh? Shore, what kin I do fer yuh? Phoem sighed in relief, the crisis past. He turned to his colleagues and conferred with them as to the ques¬ tions to be asked. The subjects ' answers he relayed to the Official, who recorded them. 128 The first question: What is your occupation or hobby? Farmer. Ain ' t got no hobby. came the reply. Do you enjoy music or art? No time for that nonsense. . How many wives have you? Jist one, like everybody. How are your children trained? My boys don ' t go to school no more. They help out on the farm like the good Lord meant them to. How are minority groups treated here? Too danged good, if ' n you ask me. What, wif them hippies ' n Commies ' n Lord knows what all, I don ' t know what the world is cornin ' to. Do you have a central government? Yep, so they tell me. Thet womaniser Troodoo ' n his money-grabbin ' Liberals. Have you ever been in a war? O ' course! How ' s a body goin ' to get a chance to help ' is country if ' n he sits at home? Do you pay taxes? Too danged many, if ' n you ask me. How do you get along with your neighbours? At this, the subject ' s face changed to an interesting shade of purple. He threw his hat onto the ground and began stamping on it, describing his neighbour in a loud and colorful manner. Lt. Ferg then decided that it would be wiser to avoid an incident, and recalled the party to the Bumble . Once safely inside, the three experts compared notes, debated, and came to the conclusion. The official filed ' his report: To: Sen. Com. IECB6043AX Re: Potential Development of Planet No. 3, SS 616- Planet dominated by intelligent but primitive race.

We rejoiced, picked the barren petals, And as we passed the swollen box, A scarlet froth covered our eyes.

Somewhere beside her an ugly fat spider Was making a meal of a fly. How beastly, said she, for it was plain to see That the spider must do this or die. Then she turned her attentions to other pretensions And said, What a good girl am I! While across the water, there was a slaughter Of children by hunger and disease. But Muffy was buffy there on her tuffy, And she was quite well at ease. She said, It ' s not my affair, in a casual air. After all, they may do as they please. Then she saw a bug come, and fled on the run. Had she stayed, she might have seen clearer. For it wasn ' t the spider that crept up beside her, But rather a truthful mirror. 131 Drama Club The school year 1969-1970 was once again a year of unqualified success for the Kelvin Drama Club. Under the aus¬ pices of President Charles Hayter and Vice-President Jill Kernahan, the Club offered an interesting program of activities for its members, while maintaining its high reputation in its productions. A record number of members turned out for the Club’s first few meetings in the autumn. Some eighty members partici¬ pated in improvisations and scripts-in-hand which were most successful. In October the Club ceased its regular meetings so that the members could devote their time and energy to “An Evening of Three One-Act Plays”, presented in the informal atmosphere of the Lecture Theatre on December 18th and 19 th. An art display and folk singing complemented the three excellent plays, “Suppressed Desires” directed by Joan Peto, “The Box” directed by Elinor Lawson and Jill Kemahan, and “The Camberley Triangle,” directed by Dan Shapiro. The production was a success not only financially but in terms of student participation. The Drama Club submerged briefly during the early part of 1970, since the majority of its members were actively involved in the operetta. After the musical production was over, two plays were put into production for the Ninth Annual High School Drama Festival. “The Form”, directed by Alison Mclnnes and Susan Johnston, was presented on April 14th at the Studio Theatre. “The Birthday Present”, directed by Charles Hayter, was produced the following evening and was so successful that it was invited back for an encore performance. “The Form”, a play in the style of Theatre of the Absurd, was well received by the audience and the adjudicator. Being a relatively hard play to do well, it was performed subtly and superbly by Rob Vipond, Blair Graham, Nancy Backhouse, and Jane Eibner. “The Birthday Present” was a tense drama about the reunion of a divorced couple. Lindsay Shaddy received bravos for her excellent performance, while both David Baldwin and Debbie Drudge were convincing and subtle in their characterization. Other activities of the Drama Club have included hosting the Canadian Mime Theatre in a special presen¬ tation for Grade XII’s and Drama members, and hold¬ ing an informal discussion with Winnipeg theatrical personality David Barnet. We hope that in future years the high standard and reputation obtained by Kelvin’s Drama Club this year and in past years will be upheld and maintained.
