A XIII C the Ii.C.I. students look When through this school magazine they pass the page marked Exchange , not realizing the future success of their magazine lies in that page and the exchange department. The reason students turn the page is because they don't know what the exchange department means to the school and the Grumbler editors. As the name Exchange im- plies, it is an exchange of maga- zines with different types of schools in Canada, United States and England. Through these magazines We gain new ideas which make every edition of the Grumbler big- ger and better. It also keeps us up on the latest in school life and activities of our rivals in the sport world and our friendly neighbours to the south and across the seas. In our collection of magazines we have such interesting articles as an interview with Bob Hutton, the Hollywood screen star, and a Bird's Eye View ot' Paris tOntarioJ on V-E and V-J days, not to mention the prize winning essay Season ot' Mists by Lyon Hunter in The Magnet . Incidentally, students, if you want to get some first hand in- formation on the school days of our own Mr. Ziegler, I suggest you walk into the of-lice with a copy of The Alhambra under your arm and seat yourself comfortably for an afternoon's entertainment. As you look through the magazine with Mr. Ziegler he can tell you of many happy hours spent within the portals of his home town school. He will no doubt tell you about some of the most interesting and exciting rugby games played in his home town, Tarrytown. N.Y.. and before you know it another two or three hours of complete enjoy- ment have passed. We are indeed hon-oured to have in our exchange this year a new- comer. and a promising one at that. The Elmira High Oracle. For the size of the school, the magazine is excellent. Up until the time of publication of the Grumbler, the magazines re- ceived were: St. John N.B.'s The Red and Gray , The Elmira Oracle , The Alhambra from Tarrytown. NX., Jarvis Collegiate's Magnet , The Paris High School Year Book from Paris. Ontario.

As he said, it is cruelty to dumb animals to make a man prac- tice on a brass instrument for more than three hours at a time, but he made them practice for three and a half. And the band played on. Later on, he took part in the fa- mous Dieppe raid, but was taken prisoner. Being in prison didn't stop him. He proceeded to form bands, orchestras, choirs and cham- ber-music groups out of all the men who could play, or thought they could. He told me how he was greatly aided in this work by twen- ty-five instruments sent to him via the Red Cross by pupils back at Har.bord Collegiate. His efforts undoubtedly caused a tremendous boost in morale to his fellow prison- ers. As per his own words, he finds the taste of young people consider- ably austere. He says that many students are displaying exceptional talent in many musical lines. He went on to say that the De- partment of Education is trying to raise the level of music apprecia- tion, though the big difficulty now is in securing qualified music teach- ers, of which there is a shortage. Nevertheless, in many large cen- tres, extensive music programmes are under way. Even in many small places .blest with a capable direc- tor, excellent work has been done. In reference to the last he citec. the case of a small country schooL with an enrolment of only fifty stu- dents, thirty-two of whom were in the school choir. For a school pro- gramme, this choir sang a diiicult choral selection by Tchaikowsky: a feat which could bring righteous self-satisfaction to even a profes- sional choir. In summing up, Major McCool stated, that, though modern stu- dents may be jazz and swing fans. they still, in general. retain a high regard for the classics and other forms of higher music and that they continue to show a definite ta- lent in the field of music. ,Q- Radio Club f Continued from page 932 innouncing. The students in charge review at the weekly assembly sports which have taken place at the collegiate in the previous week and announce coming games. Sports announcing proved popular among the boys but was not limited to the males. One girl made an out- standing success of it. The radio club, though still in the infant stage has become one of the most popular clubs at the Colle- giate. Whether a student intends to make radio his career or is in- terested in it merely as a hobby, it offers him experience. interest and a good time! 98 THE GRUMBLER i.

These masses comprise the Mite Box Contributions, K.C.I's weekly Red Cross collection. There has been the usual variety of projects this year as in years gone by. As in the past, the Book Exchange returns were the first major donations of the year. Also sponsored on behalf of this or- ganization Were booths, draws, movies and tea dances. Students have gradually accus- tomed themselves to a rather un- usual spectacle. Volunteer student knitters, with their equipment draped over their arms, have whole- heartedly jumped into the task of making clothing for K.C.I's four adopted children in Adbury War Nursery, England, and four other children on the continent. Miss Augustine is once again super- vising her department in producing wardrobes for these and other children overseas. The Junior Red Cross has com- pleted the first semester with a very heartening total - 3900.00 at Christmas.

Students' Book Exvllango Vario Bisuor. .X Xlll .X Even before the closing of the last school year. the Book Ex- change was collecting texts for re- sale. These were carefully put away and at the dawn of the new school year a new group of students began a new collection. Books were accepted in all conditions- cover- less, covered with enterprising 102 THE GRUMBLER Corrzpliments of We specialize in School Supplies, Stationery, Office Supplies, Kodaks Sheaffer and Parker Pen Sets 1 SEE OSWAI.D'S FIRST - PHONE 5-5832 KITCHENI-IR.

The Book Exchange staff was greatly aided by a new filing system adopted this year which kept things straight. The selling of the books took place in the school cafeteria every night in the week for six weeks. The terms were such that the Junior Red Cross received 10i'2w of the selling price and left the remainder to the student. Really it was a bargain and it helped a worthy cause. As the climax of all this activity, the Junior Red Cross was presented with nine brand new ten dollar bills from nine students at one of the Senior Assemblies held in the fall. Since that date 955.12 more has been received. Early in 1946 extra history texts were sold, thus starting the new year right. Although the .book shortage was felt by the Book Ex- change, it is hoped that our patrons were well satisfied.

A XIII B According to a rough estimate there are from fifty to sixty extra- curricular activities in K.C.I. Of these, more than half are pro- grammes requiring a referee or official. This well indicates the great number of officials and authorities that are required. To successfully complete a planned programme such as the extra-curricular one, every event must in itself be a success. To this end and that of declaring a cham- pion, authorities on the rules of the game must be present. It is highly improbable that anyone will refute the decision of the officials. The task of making a satisfac- tory and unbiased decision is in- deed very difficult. But the referees of K.C.I. settle arguments, prevent fights and soothe rumpled tempers with their calm countenances and courteous co-operation. To the referees and officials, who have such a hopeless task, we would like to say thank you and compliment you on a difficult task well done. LQ, The ilverseas Parcels Committee CHARLES CREB. A XII C For almost six years the Over- seas Parcels Committee has been functioning in K.C.I. During that time, thousands of chocolate and toffee bars have been sent to our former students serving overseas or at sea. The replies received have been very gratifying indeed. It seems that nothing means quite as much to the boys as knowing that their old home school hasn't forgotten them. Through the years the Overseas Parcels Committees mail- ing list has grown from practically no names in 1939-40 to over 232 names in 1944.

A summary of work of the Parcels' Committee would not be complete without mentioning the fact that copies of the Grumbler were also sent out to all the boys and girls on active service both at home and abroad.

A XIII A One day last fall I dropped in for a chat with our Vice-Principal and Vocational Guidance instructor, Mr. Philp. His office isn't very large and is rather difficult to find, but I'm certainly glad I reached it, for in it was a man who helps and in- spires the students of our school. In the life of every student there comes the time when he or she must choose a vocation. If one is going right to work, or going on to college, the time to decide is very important. To be happy one must be in such work as appeals to him, and, to be at a maximum efliciency, all talents must be utilized. This then is the problem facing the Vo- cational Guidance Counsellor. lVIr. Philp is our Counsellor and has made a distinct contribution to many of us. Of the many problems that face him, there are none which he declines. From straightening out troubled students' worries and getting them started on the right road, to helping me get this article. The wise, generous spirit of Mr. Philp is more and mo1'e an influ- ence in our school, and all who have reason to consult him come away with a new confidence in them- selves, with a profound respect for his judgment and with real grati- tude for his willing manner. WVar Savings ANXE Coxmo. .X XII ti For six years the students of Ii. C. I. have been supporting the sale of War Savings Stamps and Certi- iicates. Since 1940 when the first stamp went on sale the students of this school have been buying many dollars worth each year. Ever since the first sponsor, Mr. Downes, inaugurated the sale of this war-winning commodity, there has been keen interest and firm support. Mr. Fisher, the present sponsor, has been very pleased with the sales during his term of office. Although the war has ended, the sale of stamps goes on, because the financial debt incurred by the war must be taken care of. The story of the power and use of this money has often been told and need not be repeated. The be- nefits of the purchase will be seen in the future. This 1'eport deals with the purchase of this worth- while commodity by a small section of Young Canada. The war has been won. but the peace is not yet secured. The young people of Canada, who during the war, purchased these War Savings Stamps, will now have those war- saved dollars to invest in peacetime development. The winning of the peace will therefore be of concern to all of them. KLEINSCHIVIIDTS LIMITED PLYMOUTH AND CHRYSLER MoToR CARS FARGO TRUCKS 20.3 - 2221 Rim: ST. lixsr llul.

His con- ducting cannot be described. Let it suffice to say that during the Lone Ranger's Serenade from the William Tell Overture he seemed to be 'pumping up' the orchestra. Small wonder that he is considered to be the most energetic conductor living! During an interview after the performance he related some de- tails of his recent tour of Australia. He had gone as guest conductor and had played everywhere from large city auditoriums to small town halls. In one such instance he recalled the long lines of school children waiting for admission. ff' iii' 1 - ' fr.:-fig get!

No matter when Sir Ernest Mac- Millan and the Toronto Symphonic Orchestra return, it won't be soon enough. Such a treat is one not easily forgotten. For the great majority of us this was our first real concert, our first look at a symphonic orchestra, and I'm cer- tain we all gained in some way from the experience.

Our team came back after a shaky start to advance to the finals where they were de- feated after a hard-fought game by Guelph. Let us now look at our team without the helmets, boots and padding, and give you a close-up of each one. Playing centre-half we have our captain, big Bob Turner. It was Bob who repeatedly crashed through the line on middle bucks and also had us holding our breath on some spectacular long runs. This is Bob's last year with the team and he certainly leaves behind some thrilling reminders of his fine play. STEVE NIIHLI. S.1.LEs At right half is Lou Smith. Lou's position requires much faking and blocking which Lou does excep- tionally well. He also is a top- notch ball carrier and a tower of strength in our backfield. Out at right end is Bob Shelley. Bob is our southpaw passer besides .being a hard-hitting tackler. Also provided us with a beautiful touch- down pass down in Guelph for our only major score against the Green and White. Playing right middle is big Bob's little brother, Frank Turner. 185 lbs. of solid muscle and 6' tall. When Frank hits them they get up very slowly or not at all.-has left more than one opponent out cold on the field. Frank is very ll0 THE GRUMBLER fast on his feet and a toughie in any league. At right inside We have our own Butch Hall. Butch is a veteran with the team and is well known for breaking up plays before they can get started. Butch is a master at the art of the ankle tackle and a fine player defensively. Opposite Butch at left inside is Jim Foggie Forsyth. the old white helmet. Jim is a brick wall on the line, plays a fine game de- fensively, He is also a very fine tackler. After the pile-up is cleared away, who is at the bottom? You guessed it. It's Foggie but he's got his man. At left end is Clayton Dago Derstine, the speedboy of our team. Dago can do almost anything--he claims-but after proving it he leaves no doubt in our minds. Be- sides being an outstanding tackler and runner, Dago slings arounc, a mean vocabulary. Some .bad luck with both knees in our final game against Guelph prevented Dago from finishing off, and the game might have ended differently. Our snap-back this year was Chris Huehn. Chris leaves little to be desired and provided us with a season of perfect snapping. Besides being one of the best snaps in the league, Chris is fast on his feet and plays a steady defensive game at all times. Little Dennie Barnes ably alter- nated between left-half and quar- ter-back. Despite his size-or lack of it. Dennie was one of the most valuable men on the team. He can run, buck, and kick converts and he never misses a tackle. Dennie also provided us with some spec- tacular broken fleld running when we needed it most. Mac Griffin took care of left middle position. Mac is a veteran N W. CLARE DUFFUS LIMITED Back 7a flfaamal. . .

MITCHELL, .-Igenzji' Illarzuger with the team and knows what it's all about. His fine tackling and effective blocking were a great asset to the team. Dick McTavish is another vet- eran with the team. Dick is an inside wing and hard man to get around. He plays a steady game and can be relied on at all times. The brains this year is Gordie Ariss, our quarterback. It is Gordie who calls the plays that gain the yards, a job that takes rugby brains and ability. Gordie is a fine defensive player and intercepted many passes that could have been fatal to us had they been com- pleted. The handy man of the team, Jim Swartz, takes care of flying wing and half-back. Jim is one of the 'nest pass interceptors in the .eague and our best man defensive- Iy for knocklng down passes. It is he who goes high into the blue to grab a Brantford pass and stroll nonchalantly 75 yds. downfleld for the touchdown that clinches the game. We now present to you the man with the feet, the man who comes out with those beautiful 60 yard kicks. He is the best kicker to come out of K.C.I. in a long time and is undoubtedly the best kicker in the league this year. So here he is, Red Hicks, flying wing and kicker deluxe. After a shaky start. Red Went on to really boom 'em out. Besides kicking, Red carries the ball on a few bucking missions and he really travels through that line. At left end we have little Luke Ritchie. Luke never tackles above the ankles and on various occasions has pulled them down by the cleats of their boots. Small but mighty. Com plim en ts 0 S A TT L E R' S LEATHER GOODS -19 QUEEN ST.

At flying wing we also have that mass of muscle, Keith Ziegler. Zeke's nickname is muscles and small wonder for Zeke is our mod- ern Hercules. He dislocated both shoulders in a game but came right back for more! A fast man on his feet, Zeke can buck, is a hard tackler and a tough nut for the opposition. Lyle Red Uttley plays right end. Red could be called the badman of the team. He cocks his arm for a swing in the game against Galt before the referee intervenes. Red is fast on his feet and a good tackler. Denny Juma is a newcomer with the team and alternates between end and inside. Denny is fast and a good tackler, looks promising for future seasons with the team. Bruck Kecknie played a steady game at middle wing. He is very solid on the line and a good blocker, stops many attempted bucks over his position. John Elliot is another newcover with the team, playing end. Al- though small, John is fast and a good tackler. An unfortunate acci- dent to his hand kept John out the latter part of the season. Doug Moser is another new- comer with the team. Tall and fast, Doug is a good tackler. He will prove to be a valuable man in com- ing seasons. Gavin Currie returned to K.C.I. from the navy. Our sailor boy has one year previous with the team and plays middle wing. Last but not least. John Augus- tine plays snap. Auggie, besides Com lIll4lIIf'llfS of . . .

A real K.C.I. man. Now meet our coach, Mr. Ralph Hodd. Cool and collected at all times during a game, Mr. Hodd made history this year when Dago Derstine scored the touch- down that made the score 6-5 against S.J.C. He actually took off his hat, threw it in the air, leaped up into the air himself and joyously embraced several players. It was the spirit of our coach that inspired the team to rise to the heights. To him the students owe their thanks for the many hours of time and work spent for this, your team. Our thanks to Hugh Cowie, our student manager, and to Ian Ballantyne, our mascot. Special note of thanks to Chuck Grelo who provided transportation for us, and the time Chuck voluntarily gave throughout the season. So we finish another successful season. We hope to see you all back next year cheering our team on to victory. Your fine support helped us through many tight spots, and for this We, the team, thank you.

A XII E Once again the rugby season has come to an end for K.C.I., climaxed by the Senior rugby team being runners-up in their league and the Juniors winning their champion- ships. All in all, it has not been too bad an ending, even though We would much rather have taken the W.O.S.S.A. championship, but we tried hard. May I take this oppor- tunity of congratulating Guelph's team on winning the championship. For the first time in a few years, K.C.I. had a Junior rugby team and it was very successful. All this was due to the guy wot give us spark -namely, Hal Wallace, our coach. When we started the season we were only a bunch of greenhorns who didn't know anything about organized rugby, but through tedi- ous hours of hard work he shaped us into a championship team. So, on behalf of the team, thanks a lot, Mr. Wallace. Then there is our fleet-footed captain, that handsome wide- shouldered brute, Bob Fitzgerald, who kept his eyes open and his mind on the game and called many a yard gaining play by the four in- furiating Words HSHANTZ OVER THE MIDDLE lhow about it, PQ1'l'lfUSS?J The rest of the team was equally as goodg we had one of the best A ' fl' 1 I mv In xf 1.

THE GRUMBLER Q IN backfields-hitting the line was like hitting a pile of bricks! For the whole season the team had only two serious injuries. They were Don Post, who tore some liga- ments in his ankle, and Jim Prange, who had water on the knee. There were a few minor injuries--Norm Hett and Grant Shirk-but they recovered in a few days. Incidentally, Seniors, if you want to know what inspired us to the championship our motto was: Never say dieg go to Hal! Intra - Dlural Rugby Again this year keen competition was shown on our lower campus, in the intra-mural rugby games. In all the grades the forms were well represented, despite the fact that both Junior and Senior teams had the first choice of the players. The weather was ideal for this fall sport. Any who watched these games would find that there was a good deal of team work and spirit put into them. Boa LEEMAX, SALES Much credit must go to Mr. Un- win who put many hours into the supervision of this sport. Our referees are always last but not leastg they are the boys who really have a hard time settling some heated disputes but they al- ways survive.

Again this year under the able guidance of Mr. Devitt a strong aggregation of basketball players has been moulded into a fighting team.

He shoots well, and once in a while his intended pass goes in the basket tsweet weaponb. Sigmund Rezetnik - Siggy small and fast. He does'n't look like the actor type on the basketball floor, because he shoots and doesn't talk. Alan Albin Butler-Al plays forward and guard. He has a love- ly one hand shot, and set shot. When he is not playing basketball he plays bridge ta good g'ame for the mind.D Jim Sim Swartz-Sim plays forward and centre. He is Alan's partner in bridge as well as basket- ball. tHe misses more slam bids than baskets.J Dennis Barnes- Petit Denny plays forward and guard.

Up to the time of this write-up, our team has hung up quite a few decisive victories over opposing teams. Most of the team is com- posed of new fellows who are in their first year of organized basket- ball fandf doing very well at thatl. We are looking forward to this team to hold up and better the fine record set by last year's junior team. And now I present to you this year's team: Grant Shirk-Grant is a speedy hard-checking guard. He accounts for many of the team's points as his great speed makes some of his shots impossible to check. When Grant shoots quite a few feminine voices scream with delight. fCan't understand itll Marty Rezetnik - Marty, a former Duke Street athlete, has re- gistered the most points on the score sheets. Marty plays a very elusive and clever game at forward and what he lacks in height is made up in ability to shoot. Jack Sklar-Jack's great height enables him to play a steady game at centre. He checks hard and his long one-hand pivot shots occasion- ally surprise both the crowd and himself. VIC DAR.-KSCH, A Xl C Bob Fitzgerald - Fitz never lets up in his persistent hard- checking. Bob can run and dribble like a ball out of heck and when in close, his one-hand shot is very effective. Bob Thompson - Bob plays a hard game at guard. His set-shot leaves little room for improvement. Doug Moser-Doug is one of the most improved' players our coach. Ed. Devitt, has developed this year. Doug uses height under the basket and supplements this asset with an ifffactive pivot shot from the key- o e. Norm Wilson-Norm is a tall rangey guard who has developed a one-hand shot that is exceptionally hard to check. He can really pick up those dogs and lay them down in grand style. Maurice Shantz- Poody is a good checker and has an effective pivot-shot and set-shot. Jack Schnarr-Jack is an aggres- sive forward. His speed makes him very elusive. Matt Keller-A rangey forward who has a very effective lay-up shot. Matt was only with us part of this season, and he is missed by the team. Editor: Vic Darasch-Formerly with S.J.C., is a very effective for- ward. He is also the captain of this fine team. THE GRUMBLER 123 Midget 0. B. A.

Although the boys did not win any honours, they fought hard to the bitter end and gave their opponents many anxious moments. St. Jerome's provided the opposition for our boys and they had to overcome those Duke KI. NEUWELT Street rivals for the District Ban- tam championship and the right to enter the Ontario playdowns.

Similar- ly, as the Bantam team, the City League team had St. Jerome's Col- lege as their only opposition. The boys engaged in many thrilling Nl. XELWELT battles and after losing their first three games were finally able to defeat St. Jerome's on the K.C.1. gym floor. The team did not have many practices and yet they show- ed marked improvement whenever they stepped out on the floor. THE GRUMBLER 127 Track and Field Russeu. Ciifxlumxxizitf. SALES With the fine opening of spring, we are again looking forward to a successful track and field meet. As usual the Indoor Track meet will be held as a conditioner for the coming out-door meet. Last year under the able guidance of two for- mer teachers, lVIr. Downes and lVIr. Del Grande, a cross-country race was introduced. We are hoping that this particular event will be held in the coming meet. During the war years, competition between other schools in this event was cur- tailed due to Wartime conditionsg however, this year the situation is much different and we are looking towards keen competition in the Track and Field Meet.

A new and inter- esting experiment was tried, for, at the request of Preston High School, a six man rugby team was organ- ized, under the leadership of Mr. F. W. R. Dickson. With Mr. Dickson's urging until he was blue in the face, the team practised for two weeks. before visiting Preston. Af- ter a heated struggle, our team went down to defeat. We were beaten by a mere twenty-five points! The loss disheartened our stalwart boys by no means. An- other week of practice! Another game with the Preston boys at K. C. I., in the form of a Red Cross Project. Unfortunately, We were defeated again, but by a much clo- ser margin. Lunch was served after both games, and' a friendly rendezvous ended the season with the players in the best of spirits. -A Butch Dahmer, right end, was a steady guard, and played a good defensive game. Harold Snyder was snap, and, despite his lack of size, played a steady and fast game. Jonx Dixxei-. A XIII A Ray Gies played left end. and his weight made him a good plunger. ' Ed.

Basketball Relays As the beginning of December approaches, the interest of the stu- dents is turned towards the Inter- Form Basketball Relays, one of K.C.I.'s extra-curricular activities. This event is held so that new- comers as well as older students, including the glamour girls who enter much against their will, may .become acquainted with some of the fundamentals of basketball. The relays consist of a number of events including free throws, shoulder push-up shots, dribbling, and various other competitions. JANE AICCANITY, A XII B This year three hundred and ninety students in all participated. The pupils of the school are divided into groups according to their Grade.

Despite such adverse conditions as filthy mats and inconvenient hours for prac- tice, the girls turn out faithfully and have already accomplished bends, flips and jumps. Formerly the girls practised on Wednesday and Friday at 7.30 a.m., but this proved to be too early and so they now turn out at noon hour, in the gym on Tuesday and often in the girls' dressing room on Thursday. The team is composed of these feminine acrobats: Susan Rosen, Special Commercial -very graceful and well-known in all athletics. Corean Dreisinger, C X C-beau- tiful and anything but dumb in her tumbling technique. Astrid Nilsson, A XI D, is the elf-like member of the team. ANNE Sci1AL's. A XIII C Joan Gauvreau, A X B-came to us from Owen Sound and already has proved her value to the team. Elayne Johnston, C X B, another newcomer, who has many ideas and can turn almost her entire body inside out. Joan Koenig, Jane Bowman and Elfreida Reimer, the three mus- keteers of C XI B, who form a sturdy background. Mary Kee and Shirley Miller of A X D, who work as a team. We wonder how Shirley can hold Mary on her stomach while standing in- verted. These girls form the nucleus of the team but there are several others who turn out occasionally. We hope to see a good exhibition by the girls at the Benefit Concert and if facilities are increased we look forward to a continuation of this activity in future years! Complimenls of . . EDWARD YY.

Say, Jean, we were won- dering if the ring you sometimes wear on the chain about your neck is the cause of your accurate shoot- ing, or is it there for some other purpose?'? Barbara plays guard, and could be called the Hercules of the team. Could this possibly be because she is tall? Vera Eich- holz and Eleine Seip, both of CXB, seem to know just where to find each other on the floor. They are together a good part of the time, and both play forward. Joan Van de Water of A X A certainly has ability for basketball. This is her first year at the game along with Miriam Voelker, also of A X A. Miriam is almost small enough to be the mascot, but her playing shows that she wasn't meant to keep the benches warm. Blanche Koch of C X A doesn't fake as many baskets now in the course of her passing, but stops to put them in herself. Anne Schneider of A X D is following her sister's footsteps, but she plays guard in- stead of forward. Is there such a difference between them that Miss Wilhelm didn't know until Febru- ary that they were sisters 'F Mary Kee of A X D is new to the game, but is certainly finding her way around. If Mary is as good at guarding as she is at turn- ing cart-wheels on one hand, the opposing teams will have to move some to keep up with her. Myrtle Kitschke of A X1 D is improving bit by bit, basket by basket. Soon we hope it will .be in leaps and bounds, but still staying on the floor! Violet Lishman, also of A XI D, with her stretch as a guard, will never have to worry at a boarding house table! Esther Bingeman of A X1 C takes her time to throw the ball, but always makes sure that it will land in the hands of a K.C.1.'er, especially in a prac- tice game against the Seniors. Perhaps some day the Junior team will be able to defeat the Seniors, but that day is yet to come. It is a fine goal for the Juniors to work for.

KAUFIVIAN FLJFQS 16 Upportunities HE students leaving High Schools today will face unparalleled opportunities a few years from now. Much work is waiting to be done! A great many of the cities of this world must be practically rebuilt. The commerce and industry of many countries is hopelessly dis- organized. In our Dominion, We are now changing from manufacturing war supplies to meeting peace-time needs. Who is going to do it? Many of our young men were trained for War, who under peacetime circumstances would have had industrial training. An abundance of useful work brings a challenge to our graduates to prepare themselves to serve Canada and the world in the years ahead. One can prepare now for peaceful occupations, and to the one who is prepared, the promotion should .be rapid. The reconversion and expansion in industry offers opportunities to anyone who is ready for a better position. There Will be wonderful opportunities for leadership. So many of our finest men will not return that there will be a demand for leaders in this generation to accept re- sponsibilities vvhich they ordinarily would not meet for many more years. The war has proven that young men and women can take such responsibilities and meet all expec- tations. Our youth are challenged to meet these opportunities and to carry on the great tradition and record of their older brothers and sisters who gave so much to save civilization. VV. T. ZIEGLER.

K Eitvrarg FEAR RIC Stephensson was one of those rare men who never knew the emotion of fear. A Scandin avian, he was a true son of that fearless race whose daring knows no bounds. He was the embodiment of all that made the Viking. He was dauntless, courageous, indom- itable, relentless in purpose, ever restless and longing for adventure. Always he laughed at other men's fear, the hesitation of the cautious, the cringing of the meek. He had never known what it was to be afraid. Never had he fought the hard battle of the true hero, to con- quer Fear, and thus it was that when the two came face to face, the man and Fear, the man was quite unprepared. While on a tour of the Caribbean, Eric decided to visit Jamaica. Here he frequented the water-front dives of Kingston in the hope of finding the spark of some new adventure. One evening, while sitting in what was perhaps the most sordid of all the harbour taverns. he espied an old man in sea-faring togs who seemed to be having some difficulty with the bar-tender. Prompted by instinct, Eric arose and walked over to the scene of the trouble and in- quired what was the matter. He discovered that the old man was merely unable to pay for his drinks. Eric laughingly paid for the old codger and invited him over to his own table to join him in his bottle of sour rum. When they were seated Eric poured the drinks, then sitting back, glass in hand, he surveyed his find. The old gaffer might be 'The Ancient Mariner'. to judge from his looks,', mused Eric. I wonder what manner of yarn he will spin when that rum loosens his tongue-and Hoi' Doxxiik. A XIII A his brain. He smiled, sipped his drink and waited g but not for long. 'The Ancient Mariner' had ac- cepted the invitation dociley enough, the proffered glass like- wise, had drained the latter in one gulp, helped himself to another which he dispatched in like manner and then began to talk in dull, thick voice. Thankee for footin' m' bill. mis- terg mighty white o' ye tu do it: mighty white o' ye tu ask me tu too mister, poured and glass. Then 'ave a drink with ye he rambled as he drained yet another finding the bottle now empty he re- mained silent as though to imply that the mechanics of speech re- quired lubrication. Eric smiled with amusement and ordered another bottle of rum. Needn,t thank me. said Eric. However you must be in pretty bad condition if you can't pay even for your drinks. His companion remained in steadfast contemplation of his empty glass until the approach of the waiter with a new bottle gal- vanized him into action. Having attended to the necessary prelimin- aries, he continued in his gutteral tones. Pretty bad otl' ain't the 'arf of it. Here I iz. penniless me. Cap'n Gabr'l without a blarsted ha' penny an' I knows all the time as where there's millions tu be 'ad for the likes of 'im as can get 'em. Here he paused for another drink. and Eric, seeing the possibilities set down his glass and leaned back to wait for more. He knew from ex- perience that liquor and old men together tell good stories without being asked. Yep, continued the Captain. his tongue considerably loosened. I l 4' THE GRUMBLER knows where there's millions, only I can't g'et 'em. Gotta dive for 'em an' I'm too old. Down fourteen fa- thoms they is off de Ferma's Point in the hull o' the Santa Miguel.

Everybody afraid. This should be worth while. He made his decision, leaned forward and an- nounced, I'll dive for you. The old man jumped as though stuck with a hot poker. Wha-wha- what d-d-did ye say '? he faltered. I said I'll dive for you, repeat- ed Eric gazing evenly into the Cap- tain's eyes.

I'll give you the money to hire a boat and some diving equipment and I'll meet you on the dock at seven o'clock tomorrow morning. Whereupon Eric rose, handed some bills to the Captain, paid the waiter and left. The Captain stared dumb- ly at the money in his hand and then after the retreating figure who had just made such an unbe- lievable statement. It was nine o'clock before the boat reached de Ferma's Point. Captain Gabrill and a hired negro THE GRUMBLER 15 had rowed steadily for almost two hours. Eric had stretched himself out in the stern, one leg crooked languidly over the tiller, as he examined the diving equipment. two pulls, you'll pull me up. Every- thing clear '?

This consisted of a helmet with an air tank of half an hour's supply, a pump for recharging, a watertight- iitting vest to which the helmet fastened, a pair of lead weights for the feet and, last but not least, sev- eral hundred feet of rope as lifeline. Since there was no suit, Eric wore a bathing suit and a pair of heavy rubber shoes. At the Captain's announcement that they had arrived, Eric glanced up to see, scarcely a hundred yards distant, the menacing mass of rock that was de Ferma's Point, bane of shipping in these waters. Legend had it that many a trader had found his doom on this jagged pinnacle of a submerged ridge. Might as well start 'ere, said the Captain. Eric rose and prepared to don the equipment. If I find a ship on the bottom I'll give one pull on the rope and then you'll give me plenty of slack so I can move freely. If I give Here , said the Captain hand- ing Eric a heavy knife, ye might have need 0' this, An' if ye meet any devil-fish ye pull the rope twice an' we'll yank ye up mighty quick. quick. Eric laughed as he was wont when warned of peril. If I have nc- fear of the devil, why should I fear the devil-fish '? Taking the proffer- ed weapon, he stuck it in his belt. Then donning the helmet, securing the lead weights and the rope. he dropped over the side. The water was crystal clear and warm. He dropped swiftly. soon reaching the bottom. Looking up. he could clearly see the bottom of the boat. Then he looked about him. He was in a world of beauty such as he had never seen before.

Another European Relief drive, he grumbled as he swallow- ed his coffee and darted a hurried glance at his watch. Do they think we're made of money '? If they go on at this rate they'll soon be making collections over there for our benefitln The clock struck, and with a smothered yelp the irate Mr. Anderson snatched his hat and made his daily sprint for the bus. At that moment a shivering child was trudging along a storm- dlrenched Czechoslovakian road. The rain was cold in Novy Bydzov, a bitter cold that overcame hunger, and tiredness, and grief. The child stumbled in the midnight blackness, and as his bruised and bleeding feet tripped among the bricks and rubble he began to cry. It was not a loud sobbing that quivered from his trembling lips but a low wail that seemed to pour out all the anguish and longing of his childish soul. He was alone. The enormity of that single word overwhelmed him as his haunted eyes darted about trying to pierce the darkness and find some sign of life. Life there was indeed, but not the kind he sought. Rats scurried along the gutters and around the corner he could hear the frenzied snarling of starving dogs. They were familiar sounds and brought no fear to him. So, exhausted by weeping and the day's hardships the child curled his meagre little body in the corner of what had once been a house and dropped off to sleep. One hears much of the gentle sleep of childhood. Even this was not for him. Behind his sleep- sealed eyes stole visions of his former life at home in the lovely hills of Bieskid. There had been a little cottage then and a gentle cow which grazed near the door and f,ruci: H.-xu.. A XIII Il shook her bell with a wonderful jangle whenever you shouted at her. But it was wrong to shout, Mamma said, and if you did you would have no milk with your sup- per. What milk it was tool rich with yellow gobs of cream dancing at the top and so cool and good as it slipped down your thirsty throat. The child always drank two big mugs-full every night, and so did Nicolai, his brother, but little Mari could only manage one. Pretty was Mari with her dark laughing eyes and the smoking hair which was forever straying into her face. Sometimes that hair drove Mamma nearly frantic, but Oh! how proud she was when it was brushed sleekly back and tied with two perky crimson bows. Strange that whenever the child thought of Mari he remembered those little bows. But not so strange perhaps when you remember that in those days he was only five. Then the Germans came. With- out warning they descended upon the village, and the old happy life evaporated like smoke before the people's startled eyes. Some talked of broken treaties and agreements. but what were these to the common folk of the Bieskid? They were soon to learn. The child's father was sent with the other men of the village to work in munitions factories in the Fatherland. That was the beginning of the hard times, for with Papa gone. there was no money, and food was be- coming scarcer all the time. No milk there was then, and as the worried look sank deeper into Mamma's eyes little Mari took sick. Her once chubby body grew frail and white while her questioning eyes grew larger and darker than ever. The doctor who came gave her illness a long name. but Blam- 20 THE GRUMBLER ma said in her strangely dead voice that it really meant that lVlari was starving. For a few pathetic days she struggledg then her little eye- lids closed and they said that she was dead. Her grave was so very tiny but then Mari was such a little thing, only three years old. And Mamma cried. The child turned restlessly in his sleep. In his dreams he saw again his brother when he came to say good-bye. Nicolai was sixteen and a man, so he was going to join the Underground and kill the Nazis. lVlamma's pleading was unheeded: so at last she kissed him sadly and sent+him bravely on his way. Now Mikul, my little one, she had said, You are all I have leftg you must be a man and help your poor mamma. And the child had proudly agreed as he squared his thin shoulders and envisioned the duties before him. He was almost eight by this time. So the years had sped past although each day had seemed to creep painfully by with weighted footsteps. Nicolai was captured in Zilina eight months later. They shot him. When, many months afterwards, word reached his home village, Mamma didn't cry. She just sat quietly in the silent kitchen and the last light died in her eyes. She was sitting there when the village was bombed. Mikul had gone into the forest to collect wood and while he was in the midst of its green coolness he heard the throbbing roar of the mighty wave of aero- planes which winged high over- head. Dropping his sticks he ran swiftly home to tell his mother of the wonders he had seen. She wasn't there. Neither was the cot- tage nor the ones on either side. Most of the sleepy little street was in ruins, and where the great ware- house on the corner had stood there remained only a yawning crater. Some said that the Germans had used the deserted old building to store ammunitiong perhaps they did. The child only knew that his mother was gone and that he was alone. He turned and stumbled back into the woods. Hour after hour he trudged on, knowing only that somehow, somewhere, he must find his father and leave the bitter memory of the village forever be- hind. But hours passed into days, and months and a year. People were kind, although a homeless child had long been a common sight, but there was so little that they could share. During the warmer months he slept in any protected corner. but as winter clamped the land in an icy grip he was compelled to beg shelter from kindly folk along the way. Some were able to give him odd bits of clothing to replace his tattered rags, and this, together with scraps of food enabled him to continue painfully along the way. The long weeks dragged by, each taking him closer to Germany by a few weary miles. Rumours came to his ears of great battles to the west and east but they meant little to him. Battles brought only noise and killing. and the child had had enough of both. So he trudged doggedly on. Gne day as he entered a town a great commotion surged about his ears and his amazed eyes beheld people laughing and shouting as they danced in the streets. Swas- tikas were torn down and burned as shriek after shriek proclaimed victory. Mikul was terrified. Any minute the Gestapo would come and he must flee at once. So think- ing, he hid in the shadowy out- skirts of the town till morning. then silently, stealthily he hurried along his way. To his amazement he met no Germans in the villages through which he passed, but in his befuddled state even this made little impression. What could vic- tory mean to him with his home THE GRUMBLEF2 21 and family gone and his only hope lying in finding his father. Per- haps he too had been killed and there was no one in the world to care for him. With this bitter thought the child-'s last courage seemed to desert him and he gave way to utter despair. Thus he arrived at Novy Bydzov. The sun was shining brightly when Mikul opened his eyes. The storm was over, and, except for the puddles in the street, might never have existed. But not so the terror of the child. Confronting him when he awoke were three tall khaki- clad figures. They smiled and made friendly overtures, but they were soldiers. To Mikul that meant only one thing. He cowered in the cor- ner, his panic-stricken eyes vainly seeking some means of escape. The soldiers looked at him in sur- prise. Why the kid acts scared to death of us! one exclaimed. No wonder, muttered another. He looks half-starved and Will you look at his shoes! What shoes! There's nothing but rags left. And he was right. Mikul's little feet were bare except for Hopping bits of leather bound on by muddy rags. At the sight of the strangers staring at him so fixedly, the anguish in the child's heart over- flowed and once again he began to sob. At this crucial moment a help- ful towns-Woman bustled up, and with her assistance the soldiers persuaded him to come with them. So little Mikul found a haven after his Weary months of wander- ing. He tasted milk again and fresh bread, and heard the welcome sound of friendly laughter. It was all very strange, but a wonderful kind of strangeness that, he rea- lized in the depths of his grief- scarred soul, meant the beginnings of happiness. Everything would be all right. He nestled down in the blankets at the shelter and as his tired mind groped among dreams. he heard the cow-bell ringing and his mother's voice as she softly chanted a lullaby. Mrs. Anderson resignedly straightened the paper. Henry was a good man but he wouldn't stop to think! Quietly leaving the table she found her cheque book and an envelope. Taking her pen she swiftly began to write. Pay to the o1'der of the European Relief Drive . . . . And with a secret smile she sealed the envelope. Urge fiT 1'O'zTll AUDREY HETT.

She returned to her class-room, tired after a long day of teaching. She was about to drop wearily into her chair behind the desk, when suddenly she stiffened with horror. Right before her eyes it hung- cold and still. For a moment she could not grasp the full import of what she saw. Her hands grew clammyg slowly beads of perspira- tion formed on her forehead: she slumped into her chair. John had always been a good student, a quiet, friendly person, who had never had any enemies. It was undoubtedly the new student who was behind this crime. He was a careless, shiftless individual whom she had never expected to do well. Horritied she arose from her chair. Blindly she stumbled around the room. trying to shut this horrible night- mare from her eyes. She could still see it, hanging there as much out of place in this warm friendly classroom as a wedding in a funeral parlor. Then not quite knowing what she was doing, she returned to her chair. This time she exam- ined it more closely in the dim light of that late December after- noon. A chill tingling creeping up her back: the colour drained from her face. Her hands were cold and numb. Her head be- gan to swim. The room spun dizzily before her eyes, she grabbed the desk for support. Then she began gathering her senses from the world to which they had tlown. She must face it. It was true. was slowly There it hung - the dangling par- ticiple. 21 THE GRUMBLEFQ EUEIZ S HARVEY RIEDLINGER. A XII 41 I hated him then as he sat there. Witlz his moclfing blue eyes on nzy face.

THE GRUMBLER Pen - Picking I have never thought before how many pens there must be around the school. Considering an approxi- mate enrollment of 1400 students, I should guess there are at least the same number of pens. Of course there may be many ancients who still employ the straight style pen but these are balanced by the plutocrats who had two. We shall merely suppose this, but say, for instance, a person of low morals, collected all the pens of the school, by checking all the desks of various rooms, and drain- ing the small cupboard in the office. Continuing with the supposition shall we say an average of one pen is found every two days? That is, five pens every two weeks. A second-hand pen for fifty cents, a bargain! In this manner a student would earn two dollars and fifty cents Dick NIEIQNIER. A XII IJ for half a month. Little work and many thrills make up for the small reward. By December, our imaginary thief has fifteen dollars with that month's return as yet unheard from. To soothe his conscience he could spend it on the school dance. A worthy outlet for unworthy money. If this article is ever published a reader must not take it seriously. because at least ten other people will have read it, and sharing pro- fits with ten other people means one-tenth the chance of speedy for- tune. More opposition comes from the honest persons who return pens to their owners. However, should this not reach the elevation of publication stan- dards then let the casual waste- basket thief try his hand at pen- picking. Dil Jlfii lpcmiirzg Ni:1.I.1E Plrcmm.

C XI A This morning when I awoke, I was almost tempted to stay in bed, it was so cold. I spent a miserable night dreaming of Jones' new men- ace which they lovingly call Puss. I kept seeing Old Tom placidly strolling along as he was wont to dog but somehow he changed. His eyes became bright green, his claws were sharp, and his crouch- ing gait struck terror to my heart. Suddenly he began to growl and I woke up squeaking and shaking all over to see a shadow across my doorway. Soon it disappeared, but for a long while I wooed sleep in vain. Everyone says we are in for a reign of terror-when every stroll, every excursion to the pantry may be the last. Last night Grampa addressed the newly organized secret under- ground. He fired them with pat- riotism, relating tales of the days when Old Tom was young and on the prowl. How I wish I were mlm 4 older, at least old enough to join them! Meanwhile, I am working furi- ously to get my Christmas shop- ping done before Puss gets well acquainted with the house. Yester- day, Mrs. Jones presented the bot- tom shelf of the pantry with a .beautiful piece of golden cheese. So far, I have purloined enough for all but my parents. This afternoon, I had another unpleasant experience with the newcomer. Puss stumbled upon Jerry's home just as I was leaving after tea. The ferocious, mean creature chased me all the way to my door. The vigilantes are going out on a mission of revenge to- night. They plan to break his saucer. I should have loved to go with them. As yet, I have heard no sound from the kitchen. They must have been successful. Good-night, dear Diary . . 4--N Grace Hall, A XIII B THE GRUMBLER 55Sfiflt0lll0llt After Absence A Statement After Absence slip is a very revealing thing.

THE GRUMBLER I: E Ax RfC'untinue1l from page 162 Amazon jungles, all these paled be- fore what he now saw. He was sur- rounded by waving greens. mauves, yellows, reds, ochres, blues and tur- quoise. Scintillating flashes of dazzling oranges, exotic blues,burn- ing reds, flashing yellows flitted amongst the flowing fronds of mul- ti-coloured seaweed. A maze of fairyland colour coruscated before his marvelling eyes. Beneath his feet, brilliant-hued sea-mosses formed a carpet over vari-coloured stones. Gorgeous pink and opal anemones swayed in enchanting rhythm with columns of fern-like purple tire. The sight was intoxi- cating, bizarre, and weird. It was a dream-world. Eric felt a deep ex- hilaration course through his veins. Here was a whole new world be- yond his wildest dreamsg a new world to conquer. But he was here with a purpose. and the apprecia- tion of these wonders must await a time when he had more leisure. He began to forge ahead through the dense undersea vegetation. Always new vistas of entrancing loveliness unfolded before him. He was thoroughly enjoying himself- and yet? Eric laughed and went further noticing that the sea-floor was dipping downward. He had progressed some fifty yards from his starting point when he came to the edge of a ravine on the sea-bottom. On the opposite slope he was able to distinguish the indistinct form of a ship, long since rotted and overgrown with sombre shroud. The hulk lay in the sha- dow of de Ferma's Point. Looking up, Eric saw that the boat had followed him and now lay almost directly above him. He gave a tug on his rope, felt it slacken. and then plunged into the ravine. He found it rather difficult to approach the wreck. The sea-weed here grew closer to the ground and was more dense. It seemed to cling to his feet as he worked his way through. There were fewer fish here, no more bright colours. A shadowy, foreboding silence seemed to hang over all. Vague grayish forms scuttled away before his ad- vancing tread. A sinister shape watched his passage, then followed. Arriving alongside the crumbling hulk, Eric surveyed it briefly. then clambered aboard. The deck was sharply inclined and slimy. He found it difficult to maintain his footing. Slithering, slipping. stumbling he worked his way over to the open hatchway. Upon reach- ing it, he paused to give a momen- tary glance over his shoulder. He thought he saw something un- dulating rise for a moment above the edge of the deck and then dis- appear again. He shrugged his shoulders and entered the gloomy hatchway. However, he found the passage so obstructed by debris and rotting wood, that he decided to re- turn to the boat and renew his air- supply before attempting to force his entrance since only another five minutes of air remained. As he returned towards the edge of the deck a sudden jerk on the rope brought him to a standstill. For a moment he remained rigid. Then, realizing it was only his life- line which had caught. he turned and began tugging at it, first with annoyance. then with mounting anger. Now a strong sensation crept over him. Cold shivers raced up and down his spine and a prickly feeling began at the base of his scalp. A strong urge possessed him to look .behind him. His annoyance increased. For a moment he de- liberated, then turned-and froze. The rope dropped from his numbed fingers. Slowly. silently. steadily. a hideous, shapeless, gray. undu- lating mass was creeping over the rail on to the deck. A serpentine tentacle unwove itself from the fill THE GRUMBLER formless gray and began reaching toward the motionless Eric. Eric stood, rooted to the spot, incapable of sound or motion. A powerful mixed feeling of horror, nausea and revulsion held him in its grip. His cheeks were white, his lips pale and compressed. His eyes stared glassilyg cold beads of sweat stood out on his brow. Never before in his life had he met such a horror. He. who had never known fear. now stood impotently in its hold. The devil-fish. Eight long snake- like. sucking tentacles. A horrible rending beak. Two great. dull, star- ing eyes. Revolting, hideous. ghast- ly monster. With a sudden, whip-like move- ment the tentacle wound itself about his leg: the suckers bit deep into his iiesh. The shock of the im- pact aroused Eric from his stupor into frantic action. He snatched at his knife and slashed at the tight- ening bond of death. He severed it and scrambled back, his flesh crawl- ing with dread. Another tentacle lashed out ot grip his left arm. Again the knife slashed to bring his freedom. Above, in the boat, Captain Ga- brill, peering down anxiously into the sombre depths, had perceived the monster advancing on Eric, and now he and the black began tugging madly at the rope. But it was caught fast. Below, Eric struggled vainly to extricate himself. Already both legs and his left arm were held fast. Inexorably, the monster was over- coming him. Now all reason left Eric. He slashed and cut hysteric- ally with his blood-stained knife. His air supply was giving out. His lungs ached. His face was purple: his tongue black and swollen. Suddenly. under strain of the Captain and the black. the rope broke loose, pulling tight about Eric's waist and raising him. Yet so overcome was Eric, with dumb terror. that he took this for yet an- other tentacle making fast about his body, and slashed at his own life-line, severing it, and thus seal- ing his own doom. A tentacle fastened on his body. and still another, secured his flailing right arm. Relentlessly, impotently his Writhing body was drawn for- ward. The formidable beak opened. Eric gave a frenzied shriek . . . All was silent save for the horrid sounds of a monster feeding. Q' Bruce Harvey. A X D THE GRUMBLER 31 onzsfgitz 6 few ., as san ,lu-xx ILMLKIPZ.

K 4 9' 4 Z' ament It is cold and dark, and yet there is a ghostly radiance enfolding the snow-covered hills. The fir trees sway gently under their blankets of snow. The stars above, so close they seem to graze the tops of the purple hills beyond, shed their sil- very light over the whole world. Only the moon, austere and haugh- ty, rides serenely overhead, cold and distant in her queenly beauty. The forests, the mountains, the rivers, the lakes call to me. The restless yearning that will not let me be, tugs relentlessly at my heart-strings and tears my very soul. The wind sweeps my stream- ing hair and soothes my troubled heart. I turn restlessly on my bed and brush away a tear as I emerge from another of the dreams that have haunted all my nights and have become a part of my days, so that all else seems unreal. You ask who the ghost is, I should like to meet? I do not have to turn back the pages of history and summon from their graves, musty, shadowy ghosts, for the ghost of Hiawatha knows no grave. In the forests at my side he comes, without my bidding. He comes to me and mocks me for my weakness, that I cannot free myself from the bonds that bind me. The bonds of home and parents, school and friends, all keep me from my wood- lands. I think it will become an obses- sion with me soon, this discontent, this longing when the call of the wild beats at my ear drums. This is no passing fancy. For years this thing has haunted me and I have written of my sorrow so often, that all my praises of Mother Earth sound somehow inadequate and useless. When I write of this feel- ing and pour my soul on paper, it PAL'1.INi: BREBACHER.

Thoughts of re-incarnation come to me and I wonder if ever in the long-dead past, I ran laughing through the forests and prairies in the days when Hiawatha and great Manito the Mighty ruled supreme. How else would I know of deer and beaver, birds and trees, the laughing melody of streams, the thunder of mighty waters beating against the rocks, the music of the summer breezes lulling me, as the sweet scent of pine needles beneath my head wafts upward? Far off in a thicket the call of a lonely night-bird echoes in the silence and an answer, faint and melancholy. steals through the night air. There are crickets and birds, winds and rivers. What need I of orchestras and bands when such music charms me? No, Hiawatha is no ghost. I can see his doeskin shirt and leggings. soft and white and fringed with er- mine.

Much credit goes to Mr. Berg for his efforts in making the or- chestra bigger and .better every year. Our library is ever expanding and the quality of our music is increasing steadily.

A XIII A This event, prominent in the school year, is to be held on the nights of April 3rd, 4th and 5th at the Collegiate. It will be the third in the annual series of these affairs, and promises to overshadow any- thing yet presented from the Col- legiate stage. Taking part in the event will be the Senior Glee Club, Girls' Chorus, School Orchestra and School Band. Solo work will be: Organ- Tocatto and Fugue in D Minor by Bach- George Kadwellg Trumpet - Trumpet Concerto by James-Eric Traugott. Clarinet- Vinetta - Howard Hasenpfiug. Vocal- To a Hilltop -Isabelle Chiversg Valley of Laughter - Kathleen Schweitzer. Piano and organ duet- Rhap- sody -Jean Lackie and Lorraine Harding. Piano- Rhapsody in G Minor -Clayton Feil. Violin- Handel Sonata No. 4 - Evelyn Neal. The prominent numbers present- ed will be selections from Tann- haeuser by the Orchestra and the finale, Forever Free sung by the Senior Glee Club. Then, too, there is to be the beautiful Hear My Prayer, O Lord sung by the Glee Club, and Irish Lullaby sung by the Girls' Chorus. Concert Over- ture in G minor will be played by the Band. The Collegiate abounds with talent in the musical field, and this annual presentation proves this to be no idle statement. The Festival is predestined to be a success and much credit is due to Mr. Paul Berg, conductor of Or- chestra, Band and Glee Club, to Miss Helen Nairn, conductor of Girls' Chorus, and to Mr. Harvey Class, faculty sponsor. Our hats are off to these, the Big Three in Collegiate music, and we thank all those students in the various groups for their splendid co-opera- tion. Agn. Guest Artists DoLoREs S1MPsoN. A XII D The students of K.C.I. have been very fortunate in that we have had such excellent artists at our assem- blies. Mr. Keith Staebler and Mr. Paul Berg, our first artists, gave us an excellent duet rendition of George Gershwin's famous classical-jazz composition, Rhapsody In Blue on the piano and organ. We are always glad to welcome back our graduates, and we were particularly glad to hear Doug. Frank play Addinsell's Warsaw Concerto for us. After a very successful perform- ance with the Kitchener Philhar- monic Orchestra, Miss Ada Eby played the first movement of Grieg's Piano Concerto In A Minor . Mr. Glenn Kruspe played THE GRUMBLER 45 the orchestral accompaniment on the organ. More recently, Mr. Brian McCool, the Assistant Supervisor of Music in the secondary schools, brought two young and talented violinists, Olga Pliszka and Elsie Babiak from Harbord Collegiate in Toronto. They played Bach Concerto in D Minor, the 1st movement Vivace g Sammartini, 1st and 3rd Move- ments in F Major, Telemann-Grave Movement in A Minor, Purcell's Golden Sonata-1st movement Largo , 3rd movement Can- zone , and the 5th movement Allegro , Handel's Sonata in F Major without piano accompani- ment, La Zingana by Bohm and the 1st movement of the Concerto in A Minor by Vivaldi. These num- bers were all duets, and they were accompanied by Miss Ada Eby. These two girls were the first musicians we had in the exchange of students from secondary schools, and we hope Mr. McCool will bring more like them to Kitchener. To you, Guest Artist, we say Thank you , and hope you will make a return visit soon. -Q- An Interview With The 66King of Swingii HARVEY CLARKE. A XII C When Benny Goodman paid Kitchener a visit in October, the town went all ga-ga. He and his band were playing that night at the Summer Gardens. However, after four he was to be at Paul Berg's Record Shop where he would give autographs and answer ques- tions. Well, needless to say, ye Record Shop nearly split its sides with the crowd it let in that after- noon. There was the King of Swing making with the pen and laughing and joking all the while. When the mob had thinned some- what and the air had returned, I managed to corner his Majesty and obtain the following interview: Q.: When were you born and what is your present marital status? A.: I was born May 30, 1909. I am married and have a girl two and a half years old. Q.: When was your present band first organized? A.: Around the end of 1933.

Sir Ernest MacMillan ROY DONNER. A XIII A A most outstanding event of the school year was the visit of Sir Ernest MacMillan and the Toronto Symphony Orchestra. They came to Kitchener in the late autumn to present a public concert, but they also gave a special afternoon performance for the Kitchener-Waterloo school children. Among the selections played were the spritely Shepherd's Hey and the immortal William Tell Over- ture . The way in which the audi- ence called for encores left no doubt as to the extent of its appreciation.

The School Board What do these words mean to you '? Perhaps you've wondered who the .board members are. Per- haps you've wondered just exactly what part they play in keeping the cogs of the intricate machinery of this brain factory running smoothly. Perhaps you've even wondered Why . First of all, who are the Board Members '? There is the Collegiate Board comprised of eight members. There are five representatives from Kitchener, four of Whom are ap- pointed bythe City Council, and one representing the separate schools. Waterloo has three representatives, two appointed by the Town Coun- cil, and one representing the sepa- rate school in Waterloo. DORIS H.-xM11.ToN. A XIII C The Board Members are: C. W. Cressman, Chairmang A. H. Welk- er, Vice-Chairmang Rev. R. M. Hal- ler, A. M. Snider. B.A.Sc.. T. H. Kay, Mrs. P. J. McGarry. C.B.E. and Mrs. A. E. Broome. In addition to the Collegiate Board there is the Advisory Yo- cational Committee. comprised of six members of the Collegiate Board. and six members appointed by the Board. Mr. Haller and Mrs. McGarry are the two Board mem- bers who are not on this committee. H. S. Mistele. C. H. Harding B.Sc.. W. M. Euler, M. P. Conner. M. Swartz, and C. J.

A XIII C Do you know where the auto is? Well, you go up some through a hall, down some shop steps, steps, through a snowbank, up steps, in a door and there some you are! You can sit quite com- fortably on the bumper of a car and chat with Mr. Keefe. You can dis- cover that before he came to K.C.I., Mr. Keefe taught for seven years in Danforth Technical School in Toronto. When he was last a stu- dent, it was in the Hamilton Train- ing College for Technical teachers. Mr. Keefe teaches auto shops, and helps with the camera club on the side -time permitting. Ac- cording to him, Kitchener is just 'alright'. 'It's as good as any place, I suppose, but it's too far from the cottage'. fFor the benefit of the fishermen in the crowd, it's strictly bass in Georgian Bay.J I made a mistake. I asked Mr. Keefe why K.C.I. is different from Toronto schools. He looked at me -then he looked at the oil cans, the little stove, the miniature class- rooms and the great out-of-doors sp1'ead between the shop and the school proper-and he said: You come in here, and ask me what makes it 'diEerent'. CPS.- They wear fur coats in the auto shop too.D Welcome to the Collegiate, Mr. Keefe, and we hope that the next year or two will bring you indoors with the rest of the civilized world. 1454 Dir. Slnith RoBERT PoLLoCK. A XIII B Flt. Lt. Smith returns once again to old K.C.I. Snuffy , as he is known to the stud-ents, graduated from Western University in Hon- our French and German, coming to K.C.I. in the fall of '36. Mr. Smith took a very active part in drama- tics, producing many fine plays. He was equally enthusiastic about de- bates, and skiing. In '41 Mr. Smith joined the Air Force. He told me one of his ex- periences, which he shall never for- get. Having been posted to Number Seven Radio School under the im- pression he was to be given a course, he discovered he was the instructor, and the course was to be given in French to sailors of the French Fleet Air Arm. Snuffy went into a hasty retreat with a dictionary and survived. Dictionary Smith's favourite ex- pression at that time was, Oh my. I wonder where that next word is. Mr. Smith thinks the students in this school have more developed personalities than in other places. In what way, Mr. Smith? HQ, Jliss Schmidt HELEN TAYLOR. A XII E Miss Schmidt, who resides in room 203, came to K.C.I. this term from Delhi High School. She is a home town lassie, returned to teach at the collegiate from which she graduated only a short time ago. Our large extra-curricular activi- ties please her very much. It is very comprehensive, she told us, and then went on to explain Kas any good English teacher wouldj By that I mean that it provides a club for nearly every interest of the student. The assemblies, she said, are especially well done. Miss Schmidt spends her school hours teaching English and Social Studies to grades nine and ten of all three departments. I enjoy K.C.I. very much, although we could have more room, she re- marked. THE GRUMBLER 49 Dlr. Duncan ROBERT Po1.LocK. A XIII B Our popular maths' teacher graduated from MacMaster Univer- sity in '34 and came to K.C.I. in the fall of '35, For seven long years he made with the algie, geom, trig, and his jokes. However, came July of ,42 he enlisted in the R.C.A.F. He did his bit in England and Canada. In the Air Force F.O. Duncan also instructed in Engin- eering Mathematics and- Naviga- tion. He tells us that he found the boys in blue worked harder than the boys back in K.C.I. Mr. Duncan also added that many of the men expressed regret that they had not worked harder at collegiate and obtainedf higher standings. Well, he received his discharge in '45 and that October K.C.I. wel- comed him back with open arms to her bicycle shed. Here he sojourns in frozen comfort expounding the doctrines of Euclid, Pythagoras and Jones. Dune also handles intra-mural hockey and softball for this year. When asked what he thinks of the school spirit he replied, Ye gods. it's haunting me 2 .AOA Jlr. Parrot MARY Lou HALSTEAD. A XIII C Mr. Parrot was busy painting in his cage Ccell 2155 when I visited him. It seems that he spends a great deal of his time painting and drawing-with time out to teach science and mathematics to his less artistic students. Mr. Parrot came to K.C.I. from Toronto University. Before study- ing there he attended the collegiate in Collingwood. Naturally, he likes Kitchener: he likes its congenial atmosphere and its enterprise. Do you mean the enterprising students, Mr. Parrot? Silence. Then, Well, I suppose they must inherit some of their parents' am- .bition, in time Z As for K.C.I. itself, he admires the scope of extracurricular activi- ties. Mr. Parrot teaches art to Grade X Commercial Students as well as helping Miss Blair-with the Poster Club, of course. It was almost inevitable that the conver- sation should return to the artistic. His chief criticism is the absence of art on the regular curriculum. The school has some very fine talent, and with a little develop- ment and proper facilities, K.C.I. would easily lead many schools which have such an art pro- gramme. fThis does not include text-book cartooningj He has a. wonderful theory about art as an option. Mr. Parrot is a welcome addition to K.C.I. teaching staff, and in a few years, he may be putting theories into practice and have us drawing curves instead of angles. AQ- Jlr. Vogel HELEN TAYLOR. A XII E A visit to the electrical depart- ment uncovered a few of the per- sonal problems and habits of an- other newcomer to K.C.I. Mr. Vogel ran a hand over his inclined- to-be-red hair and promised to answer a few of our questions. Mr. Vogel received his education at Waterloo College and Finley Engineering School at Kansas City. Missouri. Having taught at five schools prior to coming to K.C.I.. he is qualified to pass judgment on our Alma Mater. Let's say that the students are equally industri- ous and clever to those of other schools, he remarked: That's a diplomatic way out! Along with the other new members of the staff. Mr. Vogel admires our assembly 50 THE GRUMBLER programmes and extra-curricular activities. I teach the tech. boys nine to twelve, he said, then added as an afterthought, I also teach from one to four. The boys, who had detentions that night and who were listening in on our conversation, laughed uproariously. When we questioned them later, they sum- med up their new electric shop teacher as a Good Guy . .-Q.. Jliss Grahaln MARY Lou HALSTEAD, A XIII C Few of us manage to slip past the office door safely, but those who do know that the next doorway leads to Miss Graham's kingdom. There she manages the library, tucks magazines back into their covers and keeps a sharp eye on wayward books fand stud1ents.J Miss Graham came to us directly from Brantford Collegiate, less directly from Toronto University- and before that, from India. There she lived in Ujjain, a city about the size of Hamilton, and studied at an Ame1'ican boarding school-a co-ed school, at that! In comparing Canadian High Schools with the one in Ujjain, she observed that track and field activities here do not absorb everyone as they do in India. There, each student spends an hour on field work each day. Miss Graham likes Kitchener and the friendliness shown here Cas well as in Waterloolb She is busy in the library after school, helping those who are literarily inclined, is in charge of the Library Club and she says with a smile that she is supposed to help with the Script Club - if there were a Script Club, that is. We like your quiet smile, Miss Graham, and we like the things you are doing for us in the library. Dir. Ziegler HELEN TAYLOR, A XII E It was novel and very pleasant to be sitting in the principa1's office instead: of standing before his desk, and to be asking the questions instead of answering them. Mr. Ziegler lounged comfortably in his chair and gave forth his past history and his future hopes. Educated at Washington Irving High School in Terrytown, New York and receiving his M.A. degree at O.A.C., Guelph, Mr. Ziegler taught at Burlington, Stamford and Cornwall before taking the principalship of K.C.I. As a student he played basketball, and he coached Stamford's rugby team on to victories while teaching at that Collegiate. Mr. Ziegler is well-known to us all, but do you know his talented wife who paints so many beautiful pictures? Then, too, there are the two interesting children, Cathy and John. John will soon be in High School which will keep John, or his Dad, on his toes. Mr. Ziegler was very liberal with compliments for K.C.I. I am very pleased with the spirit of co- operation apparent at our Collegi- ate and in the Twin Cities, he re- marked. The students back all projects with enthusiasm and de- termination to make whatever they do a success. He commented on the friendly relationship between teacher and student and praised our extra-curricular activities. He feels that the members are de- veloping responsibility and citizen- ship. He hopes that the new addi- tion to the school will offer facili- ties for a greater development of musical and artistic talent. Completing the interview we were scarcely out of the office, ere another of the flock rushed in to discuss business with the busiest man at the Collegiate.

The School Board fC0ntin11ed from page 431 school begins on September the fourth and no later! They have many important jobs and each member is on from one to four dif- ferent committees. There is one board meeting every month and sometimes two. Each of these com- mittees meet previously to the .board meeting and prepare its re- port. There is an Audit Committee. Their job is that of checking books, and seeing that everything is ship shape . This includes the check- ing of the financial reports. Now you may wonder what an Auditorium and Gymnasium Com- mittee would do. If the hall is wanted for a lecture, then it is the task of this committee to set the price of rental for the auditorium. The same system of rental and ap- proval applies to the gymnasium. There is also a Building, Proper- ty and Equipment Committee. It is this committee which keeps check on the equipment in the school, and if building repairs or new equipment is needed, then they sub- mit this in their report to the Board. In the buying of property it is this committee which obtains the required information and re- ports its findings to the Board. Perhaps the most important committee is the one concerning the recommending of teachers and courses for K.C.I. It is up to this group to see that the students get the best text books, and courses of study in order that they may obtain the finest pass-port possible, to uni- versity and to industry. It is this committee which keeps K. C. I. in contact with the Ontario Depart- ment of Education. The Management Committee calls all emergency meetings, in- cluding any meetings called as a result of important decisions reached at teachers meetings, or perhaps the second meeting of the Board to be held in the same month. Sweet sounds are constantly echoing from the auditorium. These sounds are created by students singing and playing the music sup- plied by the Music Committee. Their task is to supply musical in- struments and musical scores for the school when they are needed. The recommendation of the pur- chase of the Memorial Organ, was presented to the Board by this committee. Then, there is the Insurance Committee, in charge of insurance for both the school .buildings and property and also for the staff. The Health Committee was re- sponsible for the T.B. X-Ray tests given at the school. Mr. Cressman said that he hoped the school would soon have a full-time nurse to take care of accidents, which might oc- cur in physical training, sports, or in the shops. Publicity! Yes, there is a Pub- licity Committee. They take care of sending out folders containing in- formation of the courses offered at K. C. I. The posters which adver- tise the opening of night school and those notices in the Kitchener Re- cord concerning the opening date of day school, come under the direc- tion of this committee. The School Board is the supreme authority of the school. Mr. Van de Water is in control of the finan- cial matters of K. C. I., while Mr. Ziegler heads the instruction staff. He submits reports of decisions. reached at the teachers' meetings. to the Board. Now you have an idea of what the Board does and who its mem- bers are. Thanks to Mr. Yan de Water, who gladly helped in obtain- ing this information, and thanks to Mr. Cressman who gave his time so willingly. As to that question f why J, well that's been partly answered and it is also answered by the fact that through the staff and the Board. each student is able to claim that master key to the vo- cation ofthe future. 54 THE GRUMBLER Sfrhnnl Euvnin The Major Play I A Flight of Fancy -Broadway - 1950 -the com- pletely happy moment has ar- rived. The audience waiting breathlessly for the curtain to rise on that superbly enacted play-no - not Oklahoma -not Carousel- but that play of plays, comedy of comedies, June Mad directed by the now famous Mr.A.J.

Let us listen in- Dr. Wood CBill Lahnb is to enter from door left reading paper. He will come to the stairs where Millie Lou fAnnalies Janzenj sits waiting for Mervyn tHarvey Riedlingerb. The Doctor should almost tumble over Milly Lou, then step back in surprise and annoyance. Now listen- Dr. Wood- Oh, excuse me. Milly Lou. Milly Lou- Oh, that's alright Dr. Wood, I guess this is just about as much your home as it is mine. In the first try Dr. Wood forgets to stumble-in the second he stum- bles too Well and Milly Lou laughs and can't say her line-in the third the Doctor fails to show surprise- in the fourth-but well, so it goes until the scene is just right. Then follows scene upon scene-patience and perseverence conquer and the important night has come. PEGGY XAIRN.

Her difficulties are legion.

H145 fl0llllll0llI3Qlll0lIt Exercises Friday, November 16, 1945, marked the date of the annual commencement exercises at K.C.I. With the opening overture by the school orchestra, under the direc- tion of Mr. Paul Berg, the pro- gramme began. This was followed by introductory remarks by the chairman of the Collegiate Board, Mr. C. W. Cressman. To our ever renowned boys' Senior Basketball Team the R. N. Merritt Senior Interscholastic Basketball Cup was presented. The cup was received by the coach, Mr. Ed. Devitt, and the captain, Bob Hamilton, and presented by Mr. Merritt. To our equally famous Junior Team, the W. T. Ziegler Junior Interscholastic Basketball Cup was presented. Mr. Ed. Devitt, the coach, and Bob Fisher, the cap- tain, received the cup from Mr. Ziegler. The scholastic record of achieve- ment for K.C.I. was held high as several of last year's students were scholarship winners. Following a short address by the principal, Mr. Ziegler, the university scholarships were presented to the winne1's, Gloria Riedlinger, Toronto Univer- sity: and John Klassen, Queen's University. The winners of the BILL PUGH, A XIII B provincial scholarships for univer- sity attendance were John Klassen, Lawrence Borth, and Richard Bird. The winner of the provincial scholarship for normal school at- tendance was Ellen Becker. Mrs. Greta MacDonald presented the University Women's Club Scholar- ships to the Academic winner. Madeline Bomberger, and the Home Economics winner, Vivian Nilsson. for proficiency in their respective fields of endeavour. Musical selections, rendered by several very talented students, 1'e- placed the short play, which was characteristic of former com- mencement exercises. Jean Lackie sang, A Heart That's Free . The Bishop brothers played a piano trio arrangement of Chopin's, Polon- aise Militaire . A clarinet duet en- titled Two Little Chums was played by James Geiger and How- ard Hasenpflug.

It was not only impressive and inspiring, but was presented with such heartfelt sin- cerity that it formed a lump in the throats of many students who were passing through the portals of K.C.I. for the last time. Public speaking awards, donated by the Rotary Club, were presented to the various winners by the president, Col. H. J. Heasley. John Augustine was the winner of the Senior Boys' Gold Medal and Frederick Little the winner of the Senior Boys' Silver Medal. Winners of the Senior Girls' honours were Doris Klugman, Katherine Schweit- zer and Desta Leavine. Junior Girls' winners were Patricia Shantz and Frances Rothaermel. Arnold Highman and Herman Kosky earn- ed the Junior Boys' awards. These awards were donated by the Stu- dents' Council and presented by the Vice-president, Betty Schlee. The guest speaker of the eve- ning, Mr. L. S. Beattie of the De- partment of Education, gave an excellent address especially appro- priate to the occasion. Following the exercises in the auditorium a reception was held in the gym- nasium for graduates and friends. As well as the names of students already mentioned we must not overlook the long list of graduates who have successfully completed their respective courses. To all the graduating students of 1945, K.C.I. extends her heartiest congratula- tions. The students of this year's graduating class have the unique distinction of being the first peace year graduating class. Conse- quently, they are confronted with the tremendous responsibility of furthering and maintaining the ideals for which so many of K.C.I.'s students have fallen. As Onalee Walter puts it in her valedictory. We shall not fail those who look toward us to carry forward banners of lasting peace. It is not without a tear in the corner of their eyes that the stu- dents leave the halls of K.C.I. for they realize that the short stay within its walls was an important and pleasant era in their life. And so with a feeling of reluctance mingled with a deep pride the graduates step into the future and the life that lies before them. Miss Walter was voicing the inward emotion of every graduating stu- dent when she said, We'll scatter your fame and honour throughout our country, wherever we, your students go, we'1l miss you, but we shall always remember you! - Q - A Sojourn Into The Realms 0f Higher Education SHIRLEY CLARKE, A XIII A With feeble steps and faltering hearts we slowly pushed open the massive door and stepped into the THE GRUMBLER 59 bustling halls of Waterloo College. When I say bustling, I'm putting it mildly. Everyone was shouting cheery greetings to his friends as they tore by to their respective classes. Naturally we did not know where to go, so, throwing caution to the wind, we attached ourselves to the tails of one of the passing meteors and found ourselves in sociology class. During the course of the morn- ing' we also visited a Business Ad- ministration class, a Public Speak- ing' class, and the Chapel. To say the least, my friends and I found the scenery at the Col- lege most interesting, and at the same time, We learned some very constructive knowledge. For in- stance, vve learned how crowds affect our mental attitude, and, do you know how to borrow money on an Insurance Policy? I'm afraid that ten classes on Insurance Poli- cies would only prove to be a waste of time as far as my mathematical mind is concerned. During the Public Speaking period one of the more athletic students gave a very interesting talk on the History of Rugby. Which type of rugby he was speaking' of, was not clearly defined. When the noon bell finally rang' we were ever so sorry to have to leave the school. We certainly did appreciate the opportunity of see- ing college life and classes, and we are grateful to all who made the visit possible, and so successful. HOW- Svhool Exvllange KEN Swiuzrz. T XI A Students from Forest Hill Vil- lage School visited Ii.C.I. in Novem- ber. A return visit was planned, and the following students, Jean Hemphill, Russel Charbonneau, Shirley Clarke and Ken Swartz along with lVIr. Philp enjoyed an interesting day in Forest Hill Vil- lage Schools. In Forest Hill a well-organized prefect system is in vogue and K.C.I. students were shown through the school by these prefects, whose duties include hall duty and campus supervision. Of special interest were the visits to the well-equipped library, to the planetarium, to the 'prep' school. and to class-rooms. The day in Forest Hill was help- ful in many ways. It a good school, but so is Ii.C.I. Annual Christmas Dance This year's Christmas Holly Hop brought to K.C.I.'s ballroom. for the nrst time in two years, 150 couples in formal dress to dance to the music of Bob Turner and his orchestra. For several weeks previous to the night of the dance, December 21st, decorations were being pre- pared by several members of the Poster Club under Annette Gofton. The entrance to the ballroom was effectively arranged to represent a snow-covered house, while gaily decorated spruce trees lent a Yule- tide spirit. Couples then passed through purple velour drapes and beneath the traditional mistletoe to enter the ball. An enormous global shaped ornament encased in mirrors reflected the coloured light of spotlights over the ceiling and floor. The walls were adorned with miniature Santa Clauses and huge posters of carol singers. The bas- kets around the gym were bedecked with evergreens and enhanced with coloured lights. The orchestra played before a backdrop of purple drapes. flanked by two huge candles. Committees in charge included .Ioan Lederman, A XIII B. and Ken Swartz, T XI, music and pro- 60 THE GRUMBLER grammesg Betty Cook, C XII, and Marion Elrick, C XII, guest list and sales, Marion Badke and Jean De- lion, checking, and Ruby Witt and Bernice Phillips, refreshments. Bolo Shelly was general chairman. Sigmund Rezetnik, Hugh Cowie, Harvey Riedlingei' and an able committee, kept occupied with movies, games and gags, 300 of the younger guests patronizing the games section. THE GRUMBLER 61 Q Assemblies ED. F. HOWARD, A XIII B1Assisted by Harold Sherk, A X D on Junior Assembly: The dawn breaks . . . fcrashb, and the sun wearily inches its way through the heavens only to look upon students, also weary, making their way to Ye Olde Brain Fac- tory. Weary world, isn't it? But what is that I see? It seems to me that the K.C.I. students have de- veloped an extra liveliness in their step. Can it be, -at this hour of the morning. Small wonder, for this is either Tuesday or Thursday morning and that, of course, means ASSEMBLY. The first bell rings through the halls and classrooms, and suddenly there is a mad dash-well, a fast walk anyway-to the assembly hall. It never fails but some indi- vidual has saved the centre seat of the centre row for his or her bosom companion. Then, just as everyone is comfortably seated, in saunters the select chum isome- times spelled C-H-U-M-PJ and with great difficulty, amid icy stares, works his way to his seat. Our momentary rest is quickly brought to an end, amid the drop- ping of books, needles, etc., with the entrance of our principal, Mr. W. T. Ziegler, accompanied by a student chairmen fmasculine or femininei and, very often, a guest. In the senior assemblies, which are broadcast over the local station, and at precisely nine o'clock, a student announcer steps out from .behind the curtains and reads the sign on , as an introduction for the radio audience. At this point, it seems most fitting to mention our capable, versatile Mr. Partlow, whose professions seem to be to rotate between teaching history. conducting radio programmes and racing out on the platform like a Jehu to catch a falling mike. Mr. Partlow and the radio club have set high standards on our broadcasts, and we heartily commend them. After singing God Save the King, we are once more attracted to the stage, where we find our be- loved Mr. Unwin announcing the morning hymn. We will now sing that lovely old hymn .... are his first words. After silence is restored, Mr. Ziegler or a student reads a portion of scripture, and leads in the reci- tation of the Lord's Prayer. The first item on the programme is introduced by the student chair- man, and the show is on! We have been honoured this past year by numerous guest speakers, all of whom have been cordially welcomed by the students. The attention given by the students to the speakers, indicates to the latter how much we thoroughly enjoy their presence and advice. It is a known fact that a speaker is able to determine by the attention and not by the applause given, whether or not he or she is appreciated. Outstanding among our guest speakers this year was the Rev. D. I. Forsyth who delivered an in- teresting and inspiring address on the subject, Your Future for 1946 . We also have numerous skits. plays and the like, presented by various clubs, groups and forms. Mr. Fisher, our one and only Cron- ley, and his form, A XI A, put on a delightful programme the week preceding the Christmas holidays. We must not forget to mention Mr. O'Connell and the Major Play cast. who presented us with a pre- view of one of the best plays ever presented in Kitchener- June Mad . The Radio Club, under the sponsorship of Mr. Partlow, enact- ed a radio play. depicting the story 62 THE GRUMBLER of a man who flew to the moon. This proved very interesting. At the beginning of the first and second terms, we were delighted and amused by the presidential campaigns, which, in their last at- tempt, hoped to sway the students' votes for one or other of the candi- dates. The senior assembly was also privileged to hear two girl violin- ists from Harbord Collegiate, who are outstanding in the Toronto Conservatory of Music. They were presented by Major McCool, Pro- vincial Director of Music for Secondary Schools, and they pro- vided excellent entertainment. The next item on the menu for student digestion is the sing-song tif time permitsj, led, in his inimi- table fashion, by Mr. W. J. Unwin, who made his debut back in 192x. Mr. Unwin, with his ever-present smile and hearty hand-clap, is cer- tainly appreciated by the students, who consider no assembly to be complete without him. Miss Ada Eby plays the organ with such sparkle and zest that the students put every last vocal cord into the song, whether it be an oldie or a newie . The variety and the increasing participation of the students in the assemblies have put these pro- grammes over in a big way. With more of the students taking part in the actual programme, they pre- sent to the student body their talents and abilities. The assemblies are terminated by the singing of the School Song accompanied either by the school orchestra under the able direction of Mr. Paul Berg, or by Miss Eby at the Memorial Organ. But before 9.45, the student announcer slips up to one of the mikes and gives the sign off , extending a cordial invitation to parents and friends of the radio audience to tune in again next Thursday at 9 a.m. The school orchestra strikes up a lively march and we find our- selves once more in the class-rooms, after a refreshing assembly. P.S. -We wonder if Mr. Unwin has ever put his back out of joint because of his contortions with the applause.

The radio programme character- ized the setting of Education Week. Mr. W. T. Ziegler opened the show with a short outline and address on Education and its benefits. The musical department then provided entertainment and this was fol- lowed by an outline of the various courses available for students at the Ii.-VV. C. QQ V. I. Mr. Ziegler next spoke upon the work being carried on by the Guidance Depart- ment in the school and the audience was given a glimpse into the forth- coming future of the school. The school can be proud of its achievements in this field and con- tinued participation is anticipated for the coming years. Public Speaking Contests Sen ior This year's oratorical contest for the senior grades constituted a new venture for our school in oratory- unique in its form, yet continuing the qualities of selection and de- livery of a 20th century Demos- thenes. This contest was under the sponsorship of the Lions Club and under their supervision each contestant delivered an address on the subject, Canada's Future as a Nation which lasted from ten to fifteen minutes. It was that Friday afternoon of January 18 which brought the students' ability and hours of pre- paration to the fore. As we viewed those five boys and girls, each with his or her ream of paper and deter- mined visage, We wondered which of those students could, that after- noon, come to the footlights in a blaze of glory by capturing the award of the Lions Club and the praise of the school. The judges were Mrs. Eric Bull, Rev. David Forsythe, and Mr. Van de Water. As the first contest- ant, Arnold Highman of A XII C, gave his address, all commented on his clear, strong voice, and his punctuation of each point made the speech unforgettable. Helen Tay- lor of A XII E was sweet, yet em- phatic, her pleasing voice easily marked her as the winner of first Fiuxtzris Roriueaiiigl.. A Xl ffl place. Again from A XII C was Harvey Riedlinger, whose out- standing command of English, and clear, smooth delivery gave him second place. The voice of Jean Hemphill, of A XII E rang to the farthest corner of the auditorium and her speech is memorable for its human interest. Fran Roth- aermel of A XI C, last speaker, was awarded third prize for fine, well- connected speech and unp.1.ralleled oratory. It is with great pride that we announce that Harvey rose to the occasion and captured first prize and a well-filled purse in a tangle with St. Mary's and St. Jerome's during the city-wide contest. This is another job well done and we would like to see K. W. C.S:V. I. represented in the Canada-wide contest. The cultivation of the art of oratory repays, in a thousand ways, the time and eifort spent in pre- paration, for the ability to speak freely and clearly is highly prized and rarely found. A xx zz- Jun ior The Junior school this year up- held K.C.I.'s reputation for scholars skilled in the practical arts of read- ing, thinking, writing, and speak- ing. The Junior Public Speaking 6-1- THE GFQUMBLER Contest was a distinct success. An entry of eleven boys and sixteen girls delivering three minute ad- dresses on subjects from The An- swer to the Atomic Bomb to Bobby Sockers and Slang proved that the Red, Yellow, Black, had, if anything, improved the standard set by pupils of former years. The boy's contest, held on Febru- ary 19, was judged by Captain Fin- lay Stewart, Mr. G. H. Dobrindt, and Mr. J. P. Van de Water. George Spaetzel of A X D captured first place with a speech entitled The Six Kings of Earth , dealing with the gods of peace, power and greed. Second winner was Keith Hoffman of T X A who, in his address The Veterans' next beachhead-Main Street , b1'OLlg'I1t home a problem, vital to our well-being as a young nation. Other contestants were: David Anderson of A X A, who spoke on Buried Treasure , Bruce Hodgins, A X A-- Japanese in Canada , Paul Bitzer, A X A- Slang , Bruce Gellatly, A X A- Race Dis- crimination in the U. S. , Don Smith, A X A- The Answer to the Atomic Bomb , Robert Power, A X A- Conversation , Herman Kosky, A XI A- Opportunities in K.C.I. , Lawrence Bishop, A X A - Negroe Work Songs and Blues and Bob Bish, A X A- Young Canada Looks Ahead . Judges for the girls contest held February 21, were Miss Brill, Miss M. Dunham and Mrs. A. L. Breit- haupt. The Championship was won by Doris Humphrey of A X B, who chose a subject near home, Niag- ara Falls . Marilyn Scheifele of A X D, winner of second place, spoke on Plastics for To-morrow , treating her subject in an interest- ing manner. Other contestants were: Sybil Card, A XI D- School of 1960 , Ursula Emery, A X B- Holiday in Michigan , Ruth Ratz, A XI D - Lead Kindly Light , Carolyn Hopton, A XI B- Mulberry , Mary Augustine, A XI B- The Basis for a Lasting Peace , Joyce Keele, A X B- War Nurse , Lily Portnoy, C XI A- Fifty Years of Hugel, the Comics , Madeliene C X B- Bobby Sockers , Ann Lore , Simpson, A X A- Gypsy June Stroh, T IX B- The United Nations , Pat Schefter, A X C- A Problem of Today , Mary Nichoff, T IX B- Streetcars : and Helen Long, T IX A- Sudden Death . Congratulations to all contest- ants. The 1946 Junior Public Speak- ing Contest was worthy of K.C.I. Keep up the good work! -QL Flash ! ! ! On Friday, March 29, Harvey Riedlinger fsometimes referred to as the Voice J won second prize in an oratorical contest against other competitors from this Lions Club zone. His next contest will probably be in the early part of May, at which time he will meet the winners of the other zones in this district, if they compete. There are only four Lions Club dis- tricts in Canada, so Harvey has a good chance to carry K. C. I.'s honour across the Dominion. Good luck, chum! -Editor. LQ, Debating SUSAN Roscx, SP. Con. The outcome of the battle is of no importance-but how did you fight ?-Elbert Hubbard. This epigram asks a very im- portant question, and I am sure that each one of this years debat- ers could answer truthfully, My very hardest . Flash . . . Since going to press the final results have become avail- able. They are as follows: In the Senior finals AXIIE THE GRUMBLER 65 triumphed. The team was com- prised of Mary Joan McKenzie, Joyce Smith, Jean Hemphill, Helen Taylor. TIXB won the Junior debating. Members of the debating team were Mary Nichoff, Doreen Shoemaker, Barbara Rosser, Patricia Schaefer, June Stroh and Dorothy Shantz. Two representatives and two of their 'worthy' opponents meet in Room 312-and begin scanning the 3 page list of subjects for an avail- able topic which has something with meat in it. But all is not quite so simple, for at 5.30 p.m. the students are still discussing whether No. 19 is too one-sided, or, No. 12 is a good sub- ject, but they both would like to have the negative side. This usually leads to 2 alternatives. Russ pro- duces the coin Cgood old faithfull and thus a decision is reached. Or else. some bright character sug- gests making up their own topic. At this point, Steve pounds his head with his fist and mutters, Inspiration, come to me quick- Cookie can't be waiting much long- erf' And Miss Coumans calmly sits through this, night after night. Now I definitely .believe that pa- tience is a virtue. After 2 weeks of feverish pre- paration, D day finally arrives, and the opposing teams meet on the field of battle. Due to the excite- ment and confusion of voicing their opinions in front of an audience. many students start off with Ma- dame Chairman , when Mr. Hodd is sitting directly in front of them. As the alternative members of each team. heatedly and emphatically express their beliefs, the worried judges figure up the score. and the verdict is announced. Another de- bate is over. Miss Snider. our faculty sponsor, worked unselfishly for long hours. moulding' and coaching the Winston Churchills and Eleanor Roosevelts of to-morrow. Orchids to you. Miss Snider. Christmas Assembly PAT SHANTZ. A XI D You might almost say it was destined to be a success, for from the very day that Mr. Ziegler said. Let there be a special Christmas assembly on December 21 every- one was bubbling over with en- thusiasm. Immediately Mr. Devitt, Mr. O'Connell and Mr. Smith, not to mention Auggie Augustine of AXIIIB and Siggy Rezetnik also of AXIIIB got their heads together and the result was one of the finest Christmas assemblies K. C. I. has ever seen. The spirit of the whole audience was wonderful. Attendance was voluntary and the hall was packed. To start off the whole show, Mr. O'Connel and his beloved Wood family were back on the stage in a witty sequence to the major play June Mad entitled December Clad . The entire cast was back in the skit especially written for them by Ajax . In the midst of this bedlam and hilarity was a beautiful and pic- turesque Pantamine by Mr. Smith. This lovely work of art was entitled Cinderella and the Fairy Principaln. Pat Shantz of AXID was Cinderella and the Fairy Prin- cipal was the one and only Siggy Rezetnik whose favourite line was Don't call be sir, call me Siggy. Hugh Cowie and John Johnston of AXIIIA portrayed with graceful beauty the two ugly sisters. Of course no family. not even one as crazy as the Woods could have a Christmas without a Santa Claus. and in this case John Augustine twith the help of a few pillowsi filled the bill beautifully. The curtain fell on the Wood family to rise on a part of our Christmas assemblies that seems almost a tradition. That is the sing'- ing' of Christmas carols in both fC071fI,T1IIt'd on page 841 66 THE GRUMBLER Mrahuating 011555125 BETTY ALLEMANG: Betty came to K. C. I. from Bridgeport.

I. with a magnificent new wing. It will, however, no longer be necessary to imagine the wing since plans have been made for its construction, and it may be a reali- ty by 1948. The wing will .be three stories high and will include wood, ma- chine, auto and electric shops, as well as foundry, sheet metal and welding departments. A boon to the present crowded conditions will be the twenty-one additional classrooms. One of the classrooms, which will be used for English, boasts a small stage where debates and dramatic rehearsals can take place. A new and exceptionally large boys' gymnasium will take care of the students who at present have no gym classes because of lack of room. Plans also include d1'essing rooms, team rooms and new offices for our P.T. instructors. Special rooms will take care of all school athletic equipment. Those staying for lunch will wel- come the new, better, and larger SYBIL CARD. A Xl D cafeteria. The present cafeteria will be converted into a kitchen. One of the greatest improve- ments will be the enlargement of the auditorium. The orchestra-pit will be in the place of the present stage and seats will occupy the po- sition vacated by the orchestra. Major-players will consider new dressing rooms an asset. Storage space for stage properties will also be available. The new wing will be joined to the new school by corridors, which will cut through, what are at pres- ent, classrooms. A projection-room in the lower part of the .building will appeal to those modern individuals who ad- vocate visual aids. To those who are blessed with milk-boxes the new, large steel lockers may seem the greatest im- provements. These lockers will line all the walls. All realize the necessity of the wing since our school, built to accommodate eight hundred, has an enrollment of fourteen hundred. Without a doubt the new wing will be approved by all of us and will make school a more enjoyable place. THE GRUMBLER 83 EDITOR! L . . . HIS is the first time in six years that the Grumbler has been published when the nations of the world are externally at peace. The dark clouds of death and destruction have passed away to allow the bright rays of hope to shine upon us. As we look back into the past years, and compare our Canada to other countries, we cannot but realize in what a richly blessed Dominion we live. Our ears have never hea1'd the shrieking shrill- ness of descending bombs, neither have our eyes ever been filled with the horror of the chaos which struck so hard upon the European and Asiatic countries. Indeed we are living in a for- tunate land. But insofar as human sacrifice is concerned. we have paid a tremendous debt. And now that the crisis is passed, we notice a great contrast of emotions. The Halifax docks swarm with rejoicing folks, as they anxiously await the return of loved ones, but, on the other hand, the hearts of many are heavy, and spirits full of despair, for a vast number of our boys who shall never return. Byron, in his poetic masterpiece Waterloo , displays the re- flections of our thoughts very vividly- Last noon beheld them full of lusty life, Last eve in Beauty's circle proudly gay, The midnight brought the signal sound of strife, The morn, the marshalling in arms, -the day, Battle's magnificently stern array! The thunder-clouds close o'er it, which when rent The earth is covered thick with other clay, Which her own clay shall cover, heaped and pent, Rider and horse, -friend, foe, -- in one red burial blent! They, who have given their all, have, in so doing, won for us a freedom which is ours to guard. They have overthrown the totalitarian principles, which involve greediness and injustice, and have preserved democracy, which has proved to be the successful method of legislation. They have thrown to us the torch g we must hold it high and not break faith with those who die. Herein lies a confronting challenge. The destiny of our country lies in the hands of this generation, -with us. The world needs intelligent, clear-thinking citizens, who Christmas Assembly fC07lfl'IlllCIl from page 661 French and English. Miss Nairn was leading these carols and bou- quets should definitely go to her and her choir for their lovely rendi- tions. Another contribution from the English department of our school was a pantamine Cyes, another onej entitled The Highwaymanf' But don't let the literary title fool you, it was one of the cleverest burlesques of a classic We've seen in ages. We don't know who to give the honours to, so far as organiza- tion goes, but because we saw Miss Snider scampering around the aisles at a very strategic moment asking for a street car ticket we will give the glory to her. Of course a good deal of credit also goes to Peter Ballak for his inane portray- al ofthe landlord's beautiful daugh- terBess, to Audrey Smith of AXIIC as the Highwayman and to George Eby of AXIIC who read the poem. But don't think that the German department of the school was silent on this occasion-far from it. Mrs. MacDonald all dressed up like a Deutsch Schullehrerin led a group of German students in an illustrated song called Ist das nicht ein Schnitzelbankf' Needless to say, the German band was pres- ent and up to its usual grand form. This was followed by something everyone had been waiting for. It was really the high-light of the as- sembly. The entire staff fwell al- mostb was lined up on the stage all bundled up in a caroling garb-I can't possibly describe it: it was a spectacle you had to see to appre- ciate. They were all so quaintly dressed 3it's impossible to single out anyone as the best. As they stood there with lighted candles singing carols, it made one think, with a pang of conscience, of all the de- tentions skipped and homework un- done-but enough of this sentimen- tality. After beautiful solos by Miss Nairn, Miss Snider, Mr. Bing MacMillan and Mr. Frankie Wallace the singers sat down around the Christmas tree in the centre of the stage. Then a voice came over the P.A. system, that every student is fa- miliar with, yes you guessed it. It was Mr. Ziegler, as Santa Claus. reading his slightly revised edition of The Night Before Christmas . Writing and reading poetry were two of Mr. Ziegler's talents that had been hidden from us, but, now that we know about them, everyone agrees that we must have more. Well, after his story, what was supposed to be Mr. Ziegler came out dressed in a Santa suit. When he laughed eve1'yone was convinced that it was Mr. Ziegler, despite the fact that he seemed shorter than usual. Well, we just about fell out of our seats when the real Mr. Zieg- ler came out in his costume and the first one turned out to be Mr. O'Con- nell. The speaking had been done by Mr. Ziegler over the loud speak- er. It was really clever. Then Mr. Ziegler and Mr. O'Con- nell, assisted by Auggie. gave gifts to all the teachers, and the curtain lowered on the grandest Christmas assembly we have ever seen. AQ- Blatrivulation Scholarships And llursarie-s WVOn By K.I'. I. Students Due to the decision of the edi- torial staff to eliminate the Alumni department from the Grumbler. it was thought that, with all due re- spect to the graduates of KCI.. those winning scholarships and bursaries not mentioned in the Commencement Exercises, be re- cognized in our magazine. Waterloo College appears to be the only place where scholarships are won and not presented at Commencement. The following awards were granted to the students attending Water- loo: fC0!lfflIIlt'tl1 on page 1101 8-1 THE GRUMBLER ' 0Brh12r IHIPMPI The Record Club Przrrzn VAN mg WTATI-ZR, A Xl C One of K.C.I's newest offsprings, the Record Club, under the sponsor- ship of Miss Helen Nairn, got off to an auspicious start in September with a programme of some of the .best loved songs by Chopin, from the picture A Song to Rememberu. This program was very well re- ceived, in fact, so well received, that we were forced to move to the assembly hall for the next meeting to accommodate the turn-out. The Chopin program included such un- Chopin programme included such unforgettable pieces as the Polon- in C sharp minor , and many others. The music of Jimmy and Tommy Dorsey provided the entertainment for the second programme, and in- cluded such favourites as Star- dust , Song of India , Contrasts , Sunny Side of the Street , and many more well remembered tunes. The following programmes were alternately classical and popular, and sought to fill the club's purpose of bringing to the students a better understanding of both types of music. When the club had become firmly established, the elections of officers was held as follows: President, Douglas Gellatly, A XI C3 Vice- President, Joan Van de Water, A X Ag and Secretary-Treasurer, Peter Van de Water, A XI C. One of the club's more ambitious schemes was that of chartering a bus to take forty or fifty of the club members to one of the Friday night Pop concerts of the Toronto Symphony Orchestra un- der the baton of Sir Ernest Mac- Millan, but due to circumstances beyond our control we were forced to postpone indefinitely this trip when our plans seemed about to materialize. In closing, we of the executive, along with Miss Nairn, would like to thank the committee for a swell job, not only in helping to choose the programmes, but in the plans for the Toronto trip. We also would like to thank the students who made possible the success of the club. Le Cert-le Francais BARBARA Sxiirmzas. A XIII C Le Cercle Francais is one of the several new clubs formed this year. It is intended to give its members practice in learning the spoken language. Quite a number started out with high hopes of parlez- vousing like natives, but some found the going harder than they expected! However, for the faith- ful members, the task of convers- ing in French has grown a little less difficult as time goes on. At its inaugural meeting the club executive was chosen as fol- lows: President, Dora Mae Nixon of AXIIC, Vice-President, Helen Creager of AXIIA, Secretary, Mary Joan MacKenzie of AXIIE. The faculty sponsor, Mr. H. Garfield, has done a splendid job of prepar- ing interesting material for the meetings. The club usually meets at noon so that its members can have lunch together and learn the words for the food they eat. The singing of French songs, listening to words. and having spelling matches and quizzes, have comprised most of the meetings. In the New Year, a very worth- while project was undertaken by Le Cercle Francais. With finan- cial aid from all students of French in the school. the club is sending boxes of food and other comforts to two French girls in Paris who were orphaned during the war. 86 THE GRUMBLER ' STUDENTS' COUNCIL EXECUTIVE Standing: ,Iohn Augustine.

President second term: Betty Sclllee. Vice-President first term. The Students' Council BARBARA SMITHERS. A XIII C Order, please, order! , and the meeting of K.C.I.'s Students' Coun- cil gets under Way. Perhaps its seventy-odd members are crowded into a room originally intended for thirty-five or so, but such trifling annoyances never stand in the way of politics. After spirited presidential cam- paigns, Shirley Clarke emerged victor in the first term, with John Johnston ruling the council for the second term. Betty Schlee and John Augustine were elected vice- presidents for their respective terms. Fred Little as secretary, and Marion Elrick as treasurer, did such efficient jobs during the fall term that they were both returned to office for the second semester. Those unfamiliar with the work- ings of the council would be amazed at the number of important mat- ters, including the handling of large sums of money, that the council negotiates. It provides its mem- bers with valua.ble training in the procedure of a well-conducted meeting, and teaches them to ac- cept the responsibilities connected with the various duties. The fact that there are about fifty-five extra-curricular activities sponsored by the Students' Council, is testimony to the scope of its functions. With all due apologies to Mr. Lincoln, it might be stated that the Students' Council is a council of the students, by the students, for the students! THE GRUMBLER 87 The Inter-Sf-hool Christian Fellowship RALPH WEBER, A XIII A If you were to call at room 216 on Thursday about 12:15, you would see some sixty or sixty-five students assembling for a meeting. You linger a moment and soon the inspirational service of singing and devotions is under way. It is the I. S. C. F. The K.C.I. group is but a small part of the large international. or- ganization. In Canada, meetings such as ours are held regularly in a great many of the High Schools and Universities. Each branch is under the direct supervision of a staff sponsor and receives consider- able guidance from a district Field Secretary who pays regular visits to the diderent schools. In addition to the regular Thurs- day meetings, a number of the students gather each Tuesday for prayer and Bible study in the form of discussions led by one Of the members. And then, there are those social gatherings. In Novem- ber, it was a scavenger hunt when groups of students were set loose in the neighbourhood to trouble peace-loving housewives for .Old papers, soup cans, or bits of string. On December 18, Jean Karcher was hostess for the Christmas house party at which we enjoyed playmif a variety of games, before settling down to singing Christmas carols and concluded with our devotional period. The highlight of the Fellowship school year is the week-end confer- ence held in Guelph each spring. Students gather from all the dis- trict schools to enjoy a week-end of camp life and relaxation. It is a time when students from the differ- ent High School groups can get to know each other better. During the month of August. about 250 students from all parts of Ontario go to Pioneer Camp to enjoy the highly-varied and enjoy- able program of boating, sailing, swimming, volleyball, rifle practice, archery and hiking. Pioneer Camp is situated on Clearwater Lake in the beautiful Lake-of-Bays district. The purpose of the camp- The Christian Life -is achieved in the Bible study hour and discussion group hour every morning, plus the fellowship around an evening camp- fire.

C XI B The Library Club is one of the babies of the first semester, but now that we have made a start, we are out of our rompers and proudly strolling around with heads high. The purpose of the club is to give everyone interested a chance to get a good taste of Library work and to leai'n the do's and don'ts of arranging library books. We add pleasure to the work we do by having numerous social ac- tivities. The initiation party was a good excuse for a gossip jam- boree. It was by a mere chance that the date of the next meeting was heard by everyone. The com- ing Pot-Luck party should be a big affair with plenty of surprises in store for every member. The club's major project for the year is to make models of all types 4U f 1 THE GRUMBLER of books ever in existence, starting from the stone book and working up to the modern printed one. This will be displayed in the hall show- case as soon as completed. Miss Graham, new to the school this year, is the sponsor of the club and has done a grand job of keep- ing the members on the right style of Library Work. The club has 22 members who all take part in the Library activities and do their share in desk work. The executive is as follows: President, Joan Koenig, C XI Bg Secretary, Annie Janzen, A XII C, Treasurer, Barbara Hemmerick, A X C, Reporter, Donna Flowers.

The main event, however, is the Grumbler with all its headaches and sleepless nights.

The brunt of these responsibilities is shared by Mr. Montgomery and Neville Bishop of A XI D. Along with any other organiza- tion, the Camera Club is not with- out its brighter moments. Flash bulbs have a peculiar knack of not going off, after a subject has been lined up with pains-taking care, to the embarrassment of some people. The equipment and dark room are at the disposal of the members, and there is hope of having a school dark-room soon, so that the physics store-room can be left to its in- tended purposes. At the present, the available equipment consists of the necessities for printing and de- veloping as well as an excellent en- iarging machine.
