74- THE GRUMBLER plays it so well! Reliable sources also report that he seems to be particularly well adapted for j ump- ing. tRemember the Christmas Assembly, students?J So, hats off to Mr. Dunford! We are very glad to have him back. BQ.. MSS Eaga- Irma Warkentin. A XIII .X One of our home-town students of classics, the soft-spoken young woman in room 205, is making an admired place for herself on the staff. Not long ago Miss Eagar walked these hallowed corridors as a student, and distinguished her- self in scholastic achievement. She then obtained her degree at Water- loo College and later graduated from O.C.E. Her interests are purely Aca- demic, and she teaches one subject, Latin. A fascinating innovation in Miss Eagar's teaching methods is that elaborate set-up on her desk, the loud speaker. What has been jocularly termed as the Reign of Terror is merely another of her methods to maintain discipline, Without too much Wear on the nerves. She says that the secret to success lies in the Word synopsis. It is not clear to me what she means. I'll leave this to her Latin students to explain. Miss Eagar is a Welcome addition to the staff. We admire her scholar- ship. her wisdom, and her subtle sense of humour. MQW AIT. HOLlSQ Ruth B1-mlvr. A XIII A One of the busiest teachers around school, and the hardest to locate, is the new instructor in motor mechanics. Mr. House cap- ably reigns over his own little kingdom, the Shops, better known as the Senior Dominion among K.C.I's several Colonies. Before coming to our Collegiate. Mr. House was stationed in the Bahamas with the R.A.F. Trans- port Command I113 South Atlantic Wing, to be exactl. He is a gradu- ate of Central Collegiate in his home town of London. Since coming here, Mr. House has been very busy organizing and directing both day and night school classes and has had little time to acquaint himself with Kitchener. However, he is not a complete stranger in the community because his parents at one time lived here. As a matter of fact, a sister of Mr. House claims our K.C.I. as her own Alma Mater. Regarding the future, Mr. House is keenly interested in the plans for the auto shops in the new wing. One cannot help but catch a glimpse of his enthusiasm for his work. That, together with his in- terest in his boys, makes Mr. House a most welcome addition to the school. A - Q ,- fllfss lkfcffenzfe Ruth Bend m-1'. .-X XIII .X Miss McKenzie. who teaches business English, is the latest addi- tion to the Commercial department. She attended Brantford Collegiate. and later McMaster University and O.C.E. Before coming here she taught at the Earl Haig Collegiate in suburban Toronto. During her High School years she c h e e 1' e d enthusiastically against the red. yellow, black at Wossa games. She admits that when she first came here, she found it difficult to change her loyalties. but now she finds it in- creasingly easy to support K.C.I's teams. IQIOIIIITIIIQNI on page T61
