But we soon got in trouble. And to our dismay Percy was peeved For the rest of the day. Our work was terrific But troubled we were, For to be specific We had not taken care. Slowly he paced His eyes shone a gleam Not to study, he said. Why we were off the beam. In twenty-five years the school Has certainly changed. “Good heavens”, he ssaid. “What’s happened to brains”. “Gunn, FiHman and Gatti Please go to the front. Now read off your work Or your heads I will pump.” Although Percy is angered. If we do not take care, Our marks become tragic with ease. For if we fail, we’re given the air, And Percy won’t be easy to please. Angles, triangles, degrees, by guff, Percy certainly knows his stuff. It there were more of his kind More of us might have a mind. T3B. Class News, T1A— This, our class of T1A, About our girls, has a few things to say: Can you imagine M. Weston stopping her reading. And L. Ferris stopping eating. If S. Hickey should put on weight. We don’t think she ' d know how to skate. Evelyn got a Tcrni, it is true. But with her combi what should we do? Delores is the sweetest girl. Too had on her head she hasn’t a curl. Now you all know R. Agoston who’s so hap¬ py and gay. If she were absent, we would have a dull day.

We have, in our class, the finest and best. Please, oh please, girls, don’t call us pests. Class News, T1A— Big happy eyes, sharp and alert, Take your eyes oft the hoard. And you lose your shirt. There is a teacher on third floor. Most gracious and fine. Forget your ruler. And you have come to the end of the line. She’s dainty, she’s frail, she’s an athlete, When you go over the horse. She sings. “Please land on your feet”. She’s short, and Hungarian. She’s sharp and happy. When it comes to talking back. They say she’s pretty snappy. ROSE AGOSTON

C4 . 25th Anniversary Dinner Even though “The Towers” has gone to press, and every minute counts, we want the readers to know of one of the most important events in the history of W. D. Lowe Vocational School, — the Twenty-fifth Anniversary Ban¬ quet held at Elmwood on the evening of May 4, by the ex-students. With Mr. P. McManus as staff adviser; Ernest Milne, general chairman; Don Newman, chairman of the ticket committee; and Tom Tobin, chairman of the reception committee, who organized their helpers weeks ago, the result was a smashing success. Five hundred ex-students, friends and teachers, arrived to celebrate and renew their old associations. The official welcome was extended first by Mr. Milne, a grad of 28, and then by Mr. S. R. Ross. The toast to the faculty was proposed by Norman Hull of 3! in a witty speech that ended with a personal tribute to our late prin¬ cipal, Mr. Lowe. Miss Mary O ' Donoghue res¬ ponded for the one hundred and sixteen teachers who have served the school during its first quarter century. The toast to the former stu¬ dents was proposed by Miss May Connerty of the staff and in response, the Rev. Frank Swackhammer of ’31 gave the speech of the evening, a mingling of uproarious anecdotes and serious thought inspired by an article once written by Mr. Lowe for an early Year Book, called “I’ve Got A Job.” Mr. L. S. Beattie, Director of Technical Education, expressed his good wishes, and telegrams from Clancy and Mary Fisher, Hon. George Drew and Hon. Paul Martin were read. . Then came the presentation of V’s, our ma¬ jor school award, to each of the eleven teacher? who have been on the staff since the school ' s opening and are still teaching, and to Mr. Frank Bowden who has been the bead of the mainten¬ ance staff all those years. The teachers who received the awards were Misses O’Donoghue. Fritz and Green, Mrs. Campeau, and Messrs. Fraser, Harman, Morrison, Bennett, Sirrs, Seg- gie, and Ross. After “O Canada”, dancing and visiting with old friends ended an evening that will stand aa the highlight of our anniversary celebrations.
