ROSELLA LEPPKY—Every morning Rosella rushes into school a few minutes before nine, wondering how others can be so cheerful at such an early hour. Rosella uses the dictionary for two purposes: to sit on when watching films and to look up meanings for “Words Are Im¬ portant.” She took part in the school play and enjoys curling and baseball. She plans to continue her education and then become a missionary nurse. JACOB PETERS—Jake is one of those rare fellows who realizes that school hours are made for study. His favorite subjects are Maths, Physics, and Chemistry. His favorite sports are baseball, football, and curling. His interest in the field of science is evident in that every spare moment is spent reading Popular Mechanics magazines. His ambition is to attend the Tec Voc” to train as an electronic tech¬ nician. EDWIN PODJAN—Edwin is good-natured and lively, always putting his penny’s worth into every conversation. Seems to be a very busy lad, taking part in hockey, curling, the school play, and assisting in soliciting for the year¬ book ads. He believes in “Let’s prove it” when it comes to arguments about who is strongest. His sheepish grin, often thrown the teacher’s way, probably gives them the impression that he is incapable of getting into trouble. ESTHER REM PEL—Though Esther is a quiet and reserved girl, she always has a bright smile and a cheerful word for all. She has proven to be an efficient secretary for the Student Council this year. Her musical talent is shown in that she plays the accordion well. Next year she plans to attend the Steinbach Bible Institute and then to enter nurses’ training. MADELINE STEI NGART—Madeline is a good soprano in the high school choir. She does her share in giving ideas to the Literary Committee, of which she is a member. She played the part of a secretary in pursuit of money in the play. Watching television and hockey games are much enjoyed by her. Her seat near the windows is the reason for her coldness (towards her work). When not working she’s daydreaming or whispering to her neighbor. ALVIN WIEBE—At first sight, Alvin may appear to be serious, but after he has thrown in his wisecracks, one knows that first impressions aren’t necessarily right. His playful curl is discussed with pleasure among the girls. It is probably due to this curl that Alvin is often the victim of penetrating stares from the other side of the room. Among sports, curling, hockey and tennis appear to come first. JACOB WARKENTIN—Jacob is a bright boy, who in spite of his scholastic abilities is rather shy. The frequent jokes he cracks bring hilarity to the boys in the back of the classroom. Be¬ sides enjoying football, baseball, and tennis, Jacob likes to read. Although he likes the end of the school day best, he intends to bear with the school hours for another year in Grade XII. Page 17
