86 THE GRUMBLER marked with the student's name and the desired price. Two of the three receipts were filed for refer- ence in the fall. The executive was ably assisted by students from the Academic and Commercial depart- ments of the school. Working on this committee was not all drudgery, for several un- usual specimens of books were con- tributed. One was a Grade Eleven Physics Text which had had all its pages cut loose. These were held in place by a huge bolt bushed through the entire book, and held by a screw which was impossible to remove. Another French Pour Lire had had the printed part of each page eliminated to form a frame for the inscription on the back cover, This book has had it. As Mr. Churchill would say, It certainly has! After a long pleasant summer vacation the Book Exchange set to Work once more. The year proved very successful and the sum of 3200.00 Was given to the Red Cross. All through the year books are continually being sold and next year's Book Exchange will reap the profit from them. Mr. Devitt, our faculty sponsor, deserves a well-earned note of thanks for his advice and leader- ship. Congratulations are extended to all those who so willingly helped to make the Book Exchange such a success. .T X ..-.

Of course, their opinion may be altered a little by the team for whom they are rooting. Nevertheless, all organized games must have someone to keep order. direct the play, and calm unruly tempers. At K.C.I., as well as at other places, this job falls img the hands of the referees. U A successfully completed season IS not just one at the end of which a winner is declared, but one dur- ing which each game has been suc- cessful in the sense of raising and maintaining the standards of good sportsmanship. To accomplish this, someone must oificiate who knows the rules and regulations of the game. This is where the difiicult task of the referees appears. So, not only to the referees, but also to the otlicials and all others who helped, K.C.I. would like to say- thanks for a job well done .

Mr. Bailey Camille Hoodless, A XII B When Mr. Bailey left us to take up his new duties in Woodstock, K.C.I. lost a valuable instructor and a kind and understanding friend. His quiet and genial man- ner endeared him to all with whom he came in contact. Mr. Bailey was admired .by both staff and students, Although he took a great interest in all our extra-curricular activi- ties, his main interest was in the production of our Grumbler.
