It was a fairly clear summer evening with only a few wispy clouds. As I watched, the clouds became smaller and smaller and at last drifted away altogether. Slowly the sky paled and darkened and then the sun set com' pletely in a blaze of glory, and all was still. The stage was set for one of Natures most stirring dramas: The entry of the stars. There was, however, one slight detail wrong with the set' ting,I was not outside and it was not late eveningg it was late morning, noon to be exact! I was at the Hayden Planetarium. On a recent visit to New York, I was privileged to see this wonderful spec' tacle. The projection planetarium, the amazing dumbellfshaped optical instruf ment, is beyond a doubt the finest and most versatile instrument for the teach- ing of astronomical science ever devel' oped. Before its invention the layman had much difficulty in understanding the fundamental concepts of astronomy. Now, however, these can be grasped easily and quickly. First let us examine the construction of this amazing projector, which is the most essential thing in the Theatre of the Stars. Its operation is on the prinf ciple of the old fashioned magic lantern. The pictures it projects, however, are those of the heavenly bodies, the small images of stars and larger images of sun, moon, and the planets. The projection screen is the theatre's great hemispherf ical ceiling,a curving shell of stainless steel painted white on the inside and fringed around the horizon with the skyline of New York. As the theatre is darkened and the clouds go away, the stars appear, each in its correct posi- tion,a total of about 9000, all that can of th By Ron IE S ever be seen by the keenest eye on a cler night. The audience completely forgets it is in a room, for the manfmade firmament above seems to have the im- mensity and endless sweep of the real heavens. Actually the projector is comf posed of over a hundred small separate projectors, all matched and fitted to' gether with exquisite accuracy. Thirty' two of these, sixteen in each end of the dumbell, project the images of the stars. In between these are the projectors which project the sun, moon, and plan- ets, placed so that each moves indivif dually at the proper relative speed. The entire machine is mounted so that it can turn on any one of several axes. It can turn so that the stars seem to be travelling to produce the eastward rotation of the earth during the night. With this motion, a day and a night can be made to pass in twelve minutes or f twentyffour hours can be compressed into three minutes. Similarly dilferent speeds have been provided for the mo- tions of the sun, moon, and planets, so that a year can be made to pass in three minutes, one minute or seven seconds. Another important motion of the ma' chine is the one which changes the latitude of the observer, so that the stars can be observed from any position on earth from pole to pole. These mo- tions are all controlled by switches on a console at which a lecturer stands. These controls are numerous and com- plicated and by means of them he can fade the stars, bring on clouds and pro' duce a dawn g or he can jump straight from midnight to midday. Other helps to the lecturer are the various extra projectors which throw reference lines, the celestial equator and other markings upon the dome. The value of such a machine to as' tronomy is twofold : first, you always have a clear night upon which to ob' serve, and secondly, the actions of the Continued an Page 66 II 66 onah and the Arkw A Short Story by George Moreau JONAH TUGGED AT HIS BEARD angrily and strode up and down the whale. Mrs. Jonah paused for breath a moment, then eyed Jonah with antagf onism. Jonah waved his arms wildly beating the atmosphere with his gar- ments. He then began to speak in a high pitched. thin voice: I tell thee, woman, I will have no further words with thee. Thou hast done nothing but complain since taking up our abode in this lishy place. Yea,I have said unto thee many times that the housing shortage is acute. Did not Adam and Eve eat themselves out of home and home? And was not Daniel sleeping with the lions? Were we not lucky to secure this dwelling for only xn shekels a month? hits. Jonah looked up from her seat on the whales liver and spoke to the cage of the great whales ribs saying, Harken to him, how smoothly he over' looketh the xxv shekels which he paid for the key to this abominable floating domicile. Jonah scowled fiercely and tugged again at his beard. Thou speakest with the tongue of a tishfwife. If thou hadst harkened to me yesterday, thou wouldst have learned that this spacious abode was advertised in the Jericho Citizen as a housefboat. As thou well knowest we did enter it in the dead of the night. Thou mustest admit it seemed all right the night of our arrival-floors sound, walls sound, no signs of mice or rats! No rats, sneered Mrs. Jonah 5 any fool knoweth that rats desert a sinking ship, and this ship has done nothing but sink steadily since we got on . Yea, 'tis true that Smilin' Sam, the agent, did betray me with his smooth tongue. He spoke about water frontage, but said nothing of a sudden trip out to sea. Out to sea, mocked Mrs. Jonah, out to see nothing ! How can'st thou see without a clean window, or even a chink? There is no need to bring the hon- ourable Chinese into the discussion Fish, fish, fish, said Mrs. Jonah, Kish for breakfast, Esh for lunch and fish for supper ! How much longer must this diet continue ? Thou hast nothing to blubber about, Jonah retorted. Well, wife, I'm going up for a blow g art thou coming ? I might as well, as harken to thee spouting. Mr. and Mrs. Jonah ascended the main cornpanionway to the promenade deck of the sleeping whale. They pro- ceeded around the port side, and as they were rounding the stern Jonah stubbed his toe on a lin. Enjoy your trip ? en' quired Mrs. Jonah. Ye gods and little fishes , said Jonah looking up, what in heaven is that ? In awed silence they watched a huge craft aproaching. On the bow was written The Ark. When the Ark drew nearer, they could see animals looking out of the numerous port holes in pairs. It certainly looketh like the return of a hunting expedition , said Jonah 3 or maybe Bring-'emfback'alive Caesar returneth from darkest Africa. By now the Ark was right alongside the whale. Ahoy there, good ship Ark, ahoy l Ahoy thineselff' answered a long bearded man g who art thou ? I am Jonah, son of Jona, son of Jon, on of Jo, son of J .... Cease, J.J. g dost thou not recognize thine old classmate, Noah ? Holy mackerel, 'tis Noah as I live. How art thou, old war horse ? It is well with me, but whither goest thou in yonder strange craft ? 'Arken unto me, Noah my friend g I have had a whale of a time, but, confidentially, it stinkethf' Thou tellest me ! retorted Noah, getting a good whiff. Verily, who is yonder fair damsel by thy side ? A thousand pardons, Noah, meetest thou the missusf' Then Noah, putting his head down the hatch, hollered Ham, Shem, Jap' heth, cast a rope onto yonder whale and lower a plank ! The Jonahs climbed aboard. Jonah spoke first: Why keepest thou the gruesome twosomes ?

G. Enns, Principal E. D. Hendry, and Mr. Hall nis, the club was December 22, 19-19, although it had been functioning since the early days of November. We are a junior service organization. Our club is to serve the school, principal, and community. Our aims are simple, but constructive: to develop initiative and leadership 3 to provide experience in living and working together 5 to serve the school and community 3 to coop- erate with the school principal, to prepare for useful citizenship, and to accept and promote the Constitu- tional objects of Kiwanis International. Our weekly meetings are strictly for the entertainment of the members and guests of the club. Every member has a job on one of the six committees: Programme, House, Project, Vocational, Interclub, and Social. To date, the club has decorated the gym for the Commencement Dance, has operated coke bars at Fun Nights, and given aid to boys. We plan to hold a dance, free for the members of the school, help with the pre- parations for Vocations Day and have a March of Dimes. The ofhcers for the initial year of the club are Pres- ident, Larry Gray g Vice-President, jack Donaldson g Treasurer,jim Pope g Secretary, Hugh Moreland g Direct- ors, Dick Logan, Bob Laughton, George Ashe g Commit- tee Chairmen, Gaston Despault, Norm Tape, Alastair Hammond, Eli McKhool, joe Nuth, john Moore. Camera Club Under the able direction of Mr. j. H. Burwell the Camera Club has had a very successful year. The execu- tive officers include President, Ken Taylor, and Secretary, Hugh Francis. Our main project has been the taking and printing of pictures appearing in Tech Talk. We have also assisted the Guidance Department, supplying them with pictures ofall grade 12 and 13 students for their files. -HUGH FRANCIS 30 Badminton Club Under the guidance of Mr. A. Hammond a group ot boys made plans to form a school Badminton Club. About midway in the Fall term the club blossomed forth with a membership of fifty enthusiastic players. Officers elected were Rollie Lemieux, President, Dave Wilson, Secretary, Howard Roche, Playing Chairman, Martin Lebtun, Properties. Many tournaments within our Club and with neigh- bouring clubs have made our first year's activities highly enjoyable. We are grateful to Mr. Hammond for launching our Club and for his sustained interest in us. We look for- ward to an even better year next year. -DAVID WILSON Radio Club - VE3ML The main purpose of the club this year has been to promote frieridship among students in the school who are interested in Amateur Radio. Sidelights of club ac- tivities have been morse instruction and radio transmitter operation, familiarity with both being necessary qualifi- cations for obtaining a Radio Opetator's licence. Several of the gang have tried and passed the Department of Transport examinations this year, which grants them the privilege of operating their own radio station, and we expect that several more will pass that nerve-wracking exam. before the termination of a very successful school year. -GLEN PACK Library Club Before nine in the morning, during the lunch hour, and after school, we find students gathering in the Tech Library to finish their homework, do research, read, or just look through the magazines. During these periods, members of the Library Club, under the direction of Miss Anne Quinlan, are in complete charge. These boys do a very efficient job in keeping the library ship-shape. The officers are President, Ron Mayo, Vice-President, Fred Tibblesg Secretary-Treasurer, Eli McKhool, and the other members are Barry Milks, Bob Calderwood, Bob Rooney, Roger Cunningham, Bruce Walker, Emile Brown and Leslie Mason, -E.

H. CLAXCEY. Direrlor 31 iii li Q Tech Annual Concert -1950 vEP.s10N- By Richard Logan BIGGER, BETTER THAN EVER. Music and dancing, drama, gymnastic skills and science all went together to compose the two and a half hours of magnificent enter- tainment provided by Tech's 1950 Concert. As the lights dimmed, the large red curtain parted on the colourful setting of Mr. Bergin's Haylofters. With that good old tyme music, it was all the audience could do to restrain themselves from jumping up and joining in the square dance. Boys dressed as girls swung their partners high. Great rounds of applause followed Dot Francis and Barry Stewart in their dance routine to the tune of the Dark Town Strutters Ball which brought the Haylofters' number to a close. Houdini in his day provided many thrills by slipping out of handcuffs , however, Houdini junior, commonly known as Edmund Dennis, was capable too. Ebenezer Scuttleboom, the burly pirate, was saved from the hands of his mutinous crew by the timely arrival of Mr. Fish and his boy geologists. The boys came ashore on the deserted island and through the elements of science located the buried treasure. The theme of the playlet was the conflict between ignorance and education. Both Barry Stewart as Scuttleboom and Mike Soame as Mr. Fish, along with the cast should be complimented on the ex- cellence of their humorous presentation. Following the playlet Ray Dore gave an exceptionally pleasing clarinet solo. Trumpet Woos by William Wood was a special treat for the audience. Paul Belanger's Piano Gymnastics was also highly acceptable. Barry Cox and Walter Satov playing on harmonicas had the Mule Train moving along as never before. We have already decided on two ofthe winners in the Ottawa Music Festival this year. The exciting combina- tion of the Glee Club and the Band in Cole Porter Medley climaxed their fine arrangement of Musical Pot Pourri. Of course we are not passing along any hints as to who the winners might be. Marcel Query, a candidate for the Singing Stars of Tomorrow, was, to me, the highlight of the show. Continued on Page 61 2,2 Wlleaven Can Wait By Hugh Moreland THE CURTAIN WENT UP AT 8.15 SHARP onthe nights of Nov. 30, Dec. 1, 2 and 3, to reveal to the delight of the audience a hilarious three-act comedy entitled Heaven Cm Wait. Before the final curtain fell the Tech Drama Guild had scored another hit. In the leading role ofjoe Pendelton, we found a tal- ented newcomer by the name of Walter Satov. For a. be- ginner to take a major part in a play and successfully get it over the footlights and into the house is a task indeed. But,Wally may rest assured that his efforts were well re- ceived and admired by the audience, for his performance was judged by many as highly commendable. Congratu- lations joe! To Barry Stewart, who played Messenger 7013 we might say you certainly filled the part to a 'T' But seriously, Barry gave a skilful interpretationo f his part as a heavenly messenger and wholly won the hearts of his admirers. It was a comical part which needed a skil- ful acting, and I'm sure he enjoyed portraying it as much as we enjoyed watching him. To Mike Soame who played the Shiek, Tony Abbott, words of praise are also due. Mike put all he had into his first part and it proved very successful. Of all the girls in the cast Dorothy Francis deserves the largest bouquet. Her manner before the footlights was extremely pleasing and artistic. Marion Christy as the cunningjulia Farnsworth gave her performance with consummate skill and suited the role perfectly. In the spotlight as Max Leveno we found Douglas Zahab. Doug deserves a lot of credit, for he had a dif- ficult part and he certainly made the most of it. The other actress of note were Miss Ann Quinlan who played Mrs. Ames, Shirely Schnell, Nurse, and last but not least of the females, we had Helen Dawson who acted as Ann and also pinched hitted lwith only a half day's noticejfor Suzzie who unfortunately developed an attack of stage fright. In the male supporting cast were Stewart Callaghan, Williams, Dave Newcommon, Lefty, Lawrence Lafleur, Workman, Doug Falconer, Second Escort, Bruce Walker, First Escort , Walter Ogilvie, Doctor , and Starr Kelly, Plain-clothesman. Also to be congratulated are the twenty odd stand-ins. These somehow seemed to get the biggest laugh of the show. Credit for the play's brilliant success extends back- stage, to those in charge oflighting, costumes, painting properties, publicity and above all to Mr. McLean for his patience and artistic insight in the make-up room. The sets by Messrs. Worthington, Woolley and johnson were pleasingly different- Continued on Page 62 A Swaphone C Q 011 UN inA F ight QXUBOQXHHH. 5011 e W awser, Kkkau. ly He oft LB apsUp yu ordmxd.

Thus at Tech, our grid- iron gladiators, our skillful Skiers, our Basketballers and Track and Field men have brought us championships. The excellence of our Band and Glee Club, both ofwhich have attained new heights of perfection this year,has ad- ded considerably to our renown. The Play, the Concert, the Exhibition, to mention only a few more of our major activitiesg all have had their part in creating the favourable reputation which Tech enjoys. But beside all these, there are numerous cases of individual effort which are equally if not more important in contributing to the honour of our school. Scholarships First among these. perhaps, are the Scholarship win- ners of the past year: Marcel Maheux, who, as the Tech student standing highest in his Marriculation papers, qualified for the 3500.00 Mercy Neal Southam Memorial Scholarship to Carleton College, also won a Dominion- Provincial Scholarship of S200.00. Bob Boldt, now at Queen's University, won a 5100.00 Dominion-Provin- cial Scholarship, while Cadet Clifford Quinn annexed a 5600.00 R.C.A.F. Benevolent Scholarship to R.M.C. To Dave Panabaker went the 5200.00 Rotary Scholarship, and to Bill Oliver and Gerry Glavin, the A. H. jarvis Bursaries. Gaston Despault, james Finter and Fred Tibbles, who are still with us, won Dominion-Provincial Student Aid Bursaries of 5100.00 each. Cups and Medals Special individual awards included thejohn McKinley Silver Medal to Gerald Gahagan for proficiency in the Grade XII Industrial Course and the R. A. Sproule Silver Medal to Leonard Walker for proficiency in Grade XI Industrial. Herbert Jackman carried off the coveted Ralph Yuill Cup for general proficiency in Grade X general academic. Collegiate Institute Board Special Silver Medals in recognition of outstanding scholastic attainment were won by William Skuce, Gerald Craw. ford, Leonard Walker, Lawrence Gray and Gaston Despault. Public Speaking . For his contribution to our fame, Tech Talk pays tribute to the winner of our Public Speaking Competition, Hugh Moreland. As the result of an immense amount of preparation which made his task seem very easy, Hugh emerged victor over the many good speakers within our school and thus became our standard bearer in the interscholastic competition sponsored by the Rotary Club of Ottawa. In the final competition held at the Chateau Laurier near the end of April, our represen- tative met the best speakers from eight sister schools and, in spite ofa 'flu' bug which nearly prevented his partic- ipation, carried off the 375.00 second prize. Hugh's win was a fitting climax to his hve years ofexcellent dramatic and oratorical effort at Tech. Diplomas Besides the many winners ofawards and special prizes in individual subjects of our Academic, Industrial and Art courses, twenty-four students received their Honour Graduation Diplomas, ninety-seven their Secondary School Graduation Diplomas in the Academic Course, seventy-six their Secondary School Graduation Diplomas in the Industrial Course, and one in the Art Course. Honour Crests Fourteen of our boys qualihed this year for the highest of our school awards, the Tech Honour Crest. To win this award, a student must hold seven activity bars with no more than three to count in any one activity. A student cannot win more than three bars in any one year. Bars are given for outstanding merit in such fields as Scholarship, Club Work, Athletics, Dramatics, Glee Club or Orchestra. Thus the award is highly prized among the students and the standards demanded for qualification are jealously guarded. The Crest is given by the Teachers' and Students' Council. The fourteen winners were Emile Brown, jack Donaldson, Frank Doyle, Denis Exeter, Wilmot Glenn,-john Hodder, Kenneth Hoffman, john McIntosh, Donald Landreville, Charles Parmelee, Marcel Pitre, Guy Pitre, and Oral Rooke. ,Nhillllf 0 S? Y : u. A- - .9 I5 ' . . a NINETEEN IIUNIIIIE ll AND FOR'l'Y-NINE 34 HN IIIY 'IIHHHIN 'M I l 2-XY Another year has rolled around and so has 12-XY. As per usual we are still the music class under the baton of Mr. john M. Robbie. Our executive this year was changed slightly from that of other years. Our President is Bruce Nelson, whose ambition is to own the Bytown. Our Vice-Presi- dent is Alfred Rae, a star performer on the Basketball floor. Alf. also doubles as our Secretary. Our Athletic Rep. is Bill Skilly Gray. He is known to most of the fellows as the Billy the Kid of the poolroom. The Tech Talk Rep. is yours truly-Barry Stewart. In sports we excel. Our Senior Football team had as a member from 12-XY, Harding Tomato Dawe. On the junior squad, Tom Clowes and jack Donovan represented the form. All our three boys were stars with their respective teams. In Basketball, our interform team is led by Fred King, our Captain. On the team we have Bruce Nelson, Grant McDonald. Albert Twombly, john Oliver, Bill Hobbs, jack Donovan. jack Donaldson, Bob Juneau, Bill Gray, and as locker boy, Rosie Rose. On the school Basket- ball teams we have Tomato Dawe and Alf Rae. In the way of Clubs, concerts, play, etc., our class takes an extensive part. Out School Band takes part ina great many of these affairs, and in the band are: Emile Brown, Bob Taylor, David Lethbridge, Rich Whan, Tom Clowes and Barry Stewart. Some of these boys, who double with the Glee Club. are : David Lethbridge, Barry Stewart, Rich Whan and Emile Brown. One other fellow who lends us his support is jack Donaldson. As representatives to various clubs throughout the school we have Gerald Rose and Jack Donaldson, mem- bers in good standing of the Key Club. The Literary end is handled by Roger Cunningham of the Library Club, while the Radio Club has our Bob Taylor. The Gymnast of the class is Albert Twombly. The rest of the boys, although they do not take part in the school clubs, all have a membership in the Gatineau Club. Our main headache is not the teachers, but little joe Wallace. The boys fear joe, not because he is big, but because every time he talks in French class, Mr. Huot adds more homework, and the boys just love that. To john Oliver and Emile Brown it does not matter how much homework is added in any subject or how hard it is, they always seem to be able to clean up the Hrst and second places in the standing. Well ! There is 12-XY in a nut-shell 3 all nuts. -BARRY STEWART 3,6 I2-All The 1949-50 High School season found us happy and studious students in Class 12-AB. This was all arranged in room 205 with Mr. jandrew as overseer. The class got right down to business and elected a slate of officers which consists of President, Graeme McKay, Vice-President, Ken Taylor 5 Athletic Rep., joe Lal-Iaise g and yours truly, Syd Greenberg, as Tech Talk Rep. Many individuals in 12-AB have brought noteworthy honours to themselves and to the class. These are Al Brown and Ray Byers of the champion Junior Football team g Ken Taylor, President of the Camera Club, and Graeme Bucko McKay together with Mick Mac- Donald who led the way on the Senior Basketball team. Under the capable management ofjoe LaHaise, 12-AB made the quarter-finals of the Grade Twelve Basketball Championships. Al Gaggsy Rheaume is said to have stumped Mr. jandrew with one of his jokes g can he do it again? Abe Fingers Moray Murray has been seen slinking around with society women wearing hot ice g now, what can this stogey smoking chap be up to ? It has been said that Barry D. Rockefeller Hammell is on the threshold of bankruptcy and his empire about to collapse. Barry, how can you auction off your winged friends? Big Bob Riddell is now trying to find a new drug in lab work g that's why he a.in't talkin. Bob Rainboth is said to have turned over a new leaf g that is, a new tobacco leaf 5 he has changed his brand from Players to Export. What is john Dozzer Tunnock's new method for staying awake in History? Don't tell, john, you might czreate a small revolution. George Wireless Wilde is said to be keep- ing up a steady weekly conversation with a certain senorita in Mexico. Is it true, George? Harry Hank Dougherty is said to have been making a sequel to Ray Mi1land's Lost Weekend. Is that why Henry keeps looking up at the chandeliers in class? Norm Shivy Mickenberg is making a collection of buttons, can't understand that lad. john Halden's atomic theory is up before the Atomic Control Board. I-I. Leslie Mason is considering taking over the English classes for 12-AB g don't do it Les ! Rigby has yet to form his House of Danny basketball team because Moose is holding out for more money.

I2-AB LB '2 P, . 1? 12-CD A score and two hard-working, earnest, mankind- loving, future graduates make up this class of '-19. We have a great form master in the person of Ivlr. Little who also attempts to put across the mistakes of our predeces- sors, a subject commonly known as History. Although his fatherly approach towards his class makes him re- proach rather than praise, we like him and believe that it's mutual. With all essential preliminaries over, we penetrate to the nucleus of our class, which is the charactersg nay, the students themselves. President john Jorgensen is the sole genius of our class, with intelligent face, the first in academic achieve- ments. He won First Class Honours last year and is going to repeat it this year, to be sure. Nothing dishonourable may be said about him here 3 he is boxing for the Beaver Boxing Club. The second best brain, as the Christmas exams proved, is in possession of a newcomer from Lisgat, Craig Carrot Top Stratton. He is an amusing fellow and if anyone wants to hear the latest jokes be sure to meet him. George Gorgeous Bannister, Vice-President, and Keith Goldie-Locks Young, his twin, are the boys who rented a ski-cabin for Christmas holidays, perhaps to try their skills on mud. jim Spike McLeod is prepared to bet anyone who doesn't agree with him. If anyone can break the bank of Monte Carlo it is he, and he will probably do it. jack Pee-Wee Birtch is a talented shop worker, and is probably the most efficient building destructionist in the school. The dramatically inclinel fellows or our form who acted in Heaven Can Wait were Stewart Inspector Callaghan, Ronald Dimples Sheffield, Paul Einstein janecek and Bob Perkins. Stewart Callaghan-he is our Student Council Rep. by the way-is really highly talented in acting, and he loves it toog he will grab the next opportunity to get on stage again. Some ofthe silent romeos of our class are Earl Slim Rodney, Steady Parks, Keith Crew Cut Ambridge, Silent Bob fNlO0dlC, Wild Bill Kearnan and Swish Laplante. Our sports activities are ably directed by Ron Finni- gan, the flashy centre for New Edinburgh in the junior City Hockey Division. Our Basketball squad with Stewart Callaghan as captain and centre went down to 38 12-EF Miss McCarthy will now call the roll for 12-EF : Anderson- Wee Willie -a teacher's delight. Baxter- Art -what a girlish figure! Besharah- Ken -a great historian. Boardman- The Board -Mr. Huot's pet. Calderwood- Bob -his favourite period, a spare. Cashen-He cashed in his chips. Constantini- Costie --a future wrestler. Crawford- jerry -he may be small, but he is brainy. Defalco- Martini -his favourite expression is I don't believe it ! Gauthier- Jimmy -you better watch out for his gang l Gorman- John -a real good head. Hamilton- Don -a genius in Geometry. Htyhorchuk- Ricker -a Basketball enthusiast.

Bennett and j. MacDonald playing on the teams. We are only sorry that we cannot present other star performers to Senior andjunior Basket- ball teams, but we have Syd Grierson playing in the junior Band from our form this year, and Greg Maloney who helped win the Cross-country run for Tech and who manages the Gym Team. One characteristic of our class is that we are interested in many school activities and clubs. Some of our leading lights among the club members are : Radio Club, Norm Hutter g Film Club, Bruce Straby, Mort Lightstone 3 Camera Club, Bob Alexander, Hugh Francis 3 Crafts Club, Mort Lightstone g Badminton Club, Lightstone, Straby 3 Glee Club, Bruce Sorley, Usher and Lightstone.

Would you like to know what is just the right thing to do if you are at a formal dance with your best girl friend? If your answer to any or all of these is yes, you'd better get acquainted with the Guidance Department, because we are continually helping students to find answers to these and many other quesf tions. The following are some of the things the Guidance Department is try' ing to do. 1. Help students get the most good out of school. The value derived out of a high school education depends chiefly on the attitude of the individual. You can only get something from school if you put honest effort into it. If a stu' dent is not trying, there is little anyone can do for him. But if he is trying, there are many ways in which we can help him make school a real success. Right now, the most important busif ness for you is getting an education. That's why you come to Tech and that is what the school is for. And all teach- ers are working toward this objective of giving all students the best possible training. The contribution of the Guid' ance Department is helping you choose the best course and the subjects most valuable to you, helping you to learn to study eliiciently g helping you to choose the proper extrafcurricular actif vities, and so on. Sometimes a student spends too much time in sports,or on music, or just hanging around a bowling alley. We are anxious to do all we can to get you to take full advantage of the opportunities at Tech. 1. Help students to plan for their future occupation. Deciding what work you will do after you leave school isn't easy. But it certainly isn't smart to drift along all through school and then pick up anything that happens to turn up. You may be lucky, but chances are you won't be. Now, it's not necessary, and usually not possible, to have an exact blueprint of what you are going to be. But it is essential that you should begin to think about it now and to seek information about occupations and about ways of training yourself for something worth' while. Some jobs will suit you much better than others and your success de- pends on planning wisely. 3. Help students in the business of living. You are born into a social world. From the moment you first see the light of day you are in contact with people. But effective social behaviour doesn't come naturally. It's learned by practice, by guidance, and, most of all, by your own efforts and desire to learn. And living with others successfully is imporf tant in all phases of your life-school, family, job, athletics, dances, friends, church, and many more. That is why the Guidance Department puts empha' sis on such topics as 1 Finding out about your abilities 3 Developing character and a pleasing personality 3 Good man' ners g How to make friends g Success on a jobg Family living g Choosing leisure' time activities. In passing, I would like you to ob' serve that this ties in with mental health in the same way that the work of the nurse and of the Physical Educa- tion Department ties in with physical health. 4. Help students find a job. This is last on th: list, but it certainly is not least important. Graduates of our school may entera great variety of occupations, and we are trying to make employers aware of this fact, so that they will call Tech when they have openings. By J. G. ENNS, Chairman of Tech's Guidance Department Of course, we can't guarantee you a job, especially if you are looking for the easiest work paying the most money. But, through the placement service, many students do get valuable help in their search for employment,and you can too. How Is I I Organized Most of the work of the Guidance Department is carried on by Mr. Bird, Mr. Shouldice, and me. The homeroom teacher counsels the members of his form. Valuable assistance comes from a staff committee and from the Guide ance committee of the Key Club. The former is composed of Mr. Hendry, Mr. Swayze, Mr. Hewer, Mr. Yeo, Mr. Morwick, and Mr. Bergin. The latter is made up of Norman Tape,Chairman, Martin Marcus and joe Lackner. In ad:liti3n,Joe Nuth has been as sisting in the Guidance Omce and Bob Shoue is in charge of the Reading Room during noonfhours. Vlfhal About You? On this page of Tech Talk I have tried to give you a brief outline of the work of the Guidance Department. Our facilities are gradually improving. But whether you will get any good out of them or not depends on you. This is the age of science and in planning your f.1ture you CAN be scientiiic. 43 W1llQWEQWHHlMMj HMWIHMQ1I GC 971.302 OT8TH, 1 'TS . . 1 Ill' In Qu An I'll IFS SS K A. gb DIN' John S: Bob Izatt, 10B H: oy Bartlett, HG R 11lJg del, FU Larry T Dave. xx' Hugs ,12 Il also 13Ag Bruce A Gray, aw : Larry Back H oyes, 9PQ: M onald e, IIP: Pi Ric Dg William 12C orgunson, J 13Dg Morris 9IiLg Charles Parmelce, and Broussenu, I'IIl Q:A 11 id Hillary, 9'l'U. 3V D and MN: Barry Cox, IOKL: Ronald 10 ohn Hoag, C3 D-4 2 v-4 cf 's 'A-7 'll 2 -Li - .I rx..

The form is well represented in the athletic activities of the school. Maurice Grenon played right end on the junior Football team, with Henry Turpin playing left end. The two Lafortunes, Maurice and Robert, are the form's Basketball stars. As a group, 10-KL worked under their form master in the big job of handling the foot- ball ticket sales.

Among them is Bryan Ensell who, with 89.536, came first in the school. Bud Simpson is another. He made our Junior Football team. We are also proud of Edmond Denis, magician l:irst-class. He put on three of his mystifying acts for ajunior and Senior Assembly and for our Christmas Concert. Our form master is Mr. Bocking, a very capable teacher. Other notable teachers are Mr. Monk, our teacher for English, Mr. Burwell, our Mathematics teacher, Mr. Little for History and Mr. Valliant our French teacher. We have not done so well in Interform Basketball. We have lost most games that we have played so far. We are hoping that we may do better in Interform Hockey. Our form did very well in the ticket selling for the play Heaven Can Wait . We won live dollars.

Assisting him in our form, is our capable executive: Bob Izatt, President, Richard St. john, Vice-President, Alvin Davidson, Ath- letic Rep. g and yours truly, David Purdie, Tech Talk Rep. The outstanding student in' our class is Bob Uzzj Izatt, with William Watson a close second.

Our football star is Richard Keeler, who played middle for the Tech juniors. Although ou.rs is not a music class we contributed Glenn Robb to the Senior Band as drummer, As yet we have had an undefeated Basketball team under coach Alvin Davidson. The team has done a good job so far, and we believe that they will remain as champs at the end of the year. We have many happy students in our class, such as Stuart McGillivray who seldom if ever has a sad look on his face, it's always a smile or a grin. Then there is Gerald Flappier who exercises his mouth most frequent- ly in the health class.

In this large class of 27 musical-minded boys, our French star is Rene St. Germaine, with Dave Finley, Don the second part of the year under Bullis, and Pierre Shorkey right on his heels, while in Science, Dante Caletti took the cake, and are it all by himself. A foursome of sharpshootersg namely, Fred Rad- bourne, Pat Barnabe, Arnold Young and Dante Caletti tried out for the Bantam Basketball team, and they all made it ! joel Dobrofsky plays a trumpet in thejunior Band, and Vfayne Morrison beats a drum. Our stars in the Special Arr course are Irving Gencher, and Gary Hockley, which is only natural because they're the only two that take it. Well, there's lots more where that came from, but that's a big enough dose for now. -JACK WRIGHT 9-AB Our class letters, A B, are the hrst in the alphabet and we like to think that we are first in the other ways too. Mr. Halpenny, our form master who teaches us English and Social Studies, takes us out on trips. These make our studies more interesting and easier to under- stand. This is our class executive :jim Lindsay, President g Arthur Russell, Students' Council Rep. g Harold Townsend, Treasurer, Barry Robillard, Tech Talk Rep. In the Fall we conducted a contest to choose a proper design for our class crest. Tom MacIver's pattern was chosen and we are proud ofits very effective design. We won five dollars for selling tickets for Tech's annual play. Gordon Davies, Tom Maclver and Dan Foley from our form acted in the play. The following are members of out Super Duper Basketball team :jim Lindsay, Wayne Dempsey, Archie Dehler, George and Norman Halden. The three top boys in our form, as shown by examina- tions, are jim Lindsay, Arthur Russell and Bill Turton. Next year you will find us all in grade ten fwe hopej. -BARRY ROBILLARD 48 GRADE C105 9-KL This is 9-KL reporting to get you hep to facts for the 1949-50 semester.

That was Ghost Emond striking a couple of broken chords on the piano. Godaire? . . . Full of beans that one. He's always up to mischief and that also goes for Gerry Gor- ley. Guy Rochon is our specimen of a fine collection of muscles. Nothing can stop him. B. BELISLE 9-MN I Our form, 9-MN is a very energetic and industrious class. This was shown clearly by the sale of tickets for Tech's annual play with 9-MN winning with more than six tickets per person. Sydney Hills led in the sale. With Don Awrey as class President, otherwise known as class orator, we are kept in good shape. Barclay Hay is an able leader as Athletic Rep. for the group. Tommy Huggins, the Vice President, also shows much interest in the class. Other students, such as Bern Welsh muscles , good-looking Bob Kincaid, Ken Riopelle, the beauty- boy , and wonder star Fleury, help give the spirit that has so long been with the class. Mr. Shouldice, our form master, is our main inspira- tion. Without him all our activities would seem to have no point. He is always encouraging the class. Some of the head boys of 9-MN are Jones, Trenholm, Sharp, Corkery and many others that deserve credit. Some students attend different organizations throughout the school, such as the Public Speaking Club. So with co-operation between form master and stu- dents, we have thus far been a very successful 9-MN. -GEORGE MILLER We are an an easy time with help of our form master, Mr. Monk. We are the largest class in the school with 49 boys, and for such a large class we are among the leading forms. H. Miller came first at Christmas with D. Mackey second. Our best boy in the shops is A. White who makes top marks in Printing, Electricity, and Machine Shops. We also have a fair Basketball team consisting of B. Parker, B. Peskett, P. Murphy, R. Madore, R. Moyes, C. Kennedy, R. Ferguson, R. McSorley, and R. Davies. Our form is very good in Gymnastics and has two boys on the Tech Gym team, B. Gauthier and D. Rawlins who does very good Hips on a mat both backwards and front- wards. The Hockey team is also very good and consists of the following players: B. Parker, B. Peskett, P. Murphy , R. Madore , A. Pennock , D. Goyette , C. Kennedy and R. Moyes. We have also two boys who are very good swimmers, B. Mullen and R. Madore, both of whom have won a number of cups swimming.

The boys that came lst and 2nd in the class were Levey and Hall. Payer, Pepper, and Glen Watson are in the Glee Club and Ernie Kirk is in the Band. Some of the boys made a few jokes which are as follows g Mr. Penney, our form master this year, has obtained the position of Assistant Truant Oflicer. Our class started olf the term with bad attendance but Sherlock Penney was on the trail of desperate truants. Up to date he has caught five oflicial truants. Crime does not pay, group of boys who are having Joe Iajoie returned after an absent day and handed Mr, Penney a note. Why were you away? asked Mr. Penney. I don't know, replied joe 3 I didn't read the note . -SID BRADLEY 9-TU Functioning under the capable supervision of our genial form master, Mr. R. D.

This is the industrial form, 11-Q, which is under the capable guidance of Mr. Argue. Our President and Rep. on the Teachers' and Stu- dents' Council is Hugh Dawe g Athletic Rep., Don Rey- nolds , and Tech Talk Rep. is Mailes Dier. 11-Q's pupils specialize in Radio and Electricity, but only the minority work overtime at it. Romeo Side- B.1nd Skrypnyk, who is commonly knownhas Gabby and also Loose Coupling Lussier, Coulomb Clifford, Harmonic Hall, Cycles Charbonneau and yours truly Decible Diet are supposed to be the radio experts and Hams of the future. We also have such fellows as Doug Pop Thomp- son who is a member of the Tech juniors and is known by the staff as Homing Pigeon. The brains of the class is Bill Kritsch. Handsome Harrison fyou never see a smile on his facej is also the teacher's pet.

A F' y if Senior Team Author's N ote-Before readin the attention of all players is drawn the small red-and-white sign re swell- ed heads on the wall of Gym B office. For many years to come the players on Tech's Senior team will remember the football season, 1949. Not only was it a success-no defeats in 9 games, with 181 points for and 2 against--but also it provided more entertaining highlights for the boys than any other time. To begin with, before 6000 fans, Tech ended Glebe's nine successive Gyro Night Game victor- ies with a 25-0 win. Over and above a powerful all-around team effort stood out the jet running of Marc Pitre, the blocking and plunging of jack Deakin, the passing of Wally Mellor, the receiving of Harding Dawe and of Monty Guertin and the kicking of Gordie Peachy. Chuck Paul, sidelined with injuries, got into the game for one play-a 60 yard boot for a single. A week later the team entrained for the pro- vincial Red Feather Tournament in Toronto, led by ffully armed, tool Guy Two-Gun Pitre and joe 'lCactus Fitzpatrick. In the game against Toronto Humberside, Tech struck early with Marc Pitre's running behind the blocking of Ron Ham- mel and Ken Hoffman. With the help of some terrific defensive line play by Will Glenn, the Chucks, Pond and Parmalee and the crowd-pleas- ing spectacle of the other Chuck CPaul'sl booming kicks, the game ended in a 9-0 victory. The team failed, however, to get the nod from the judges as tournament champions, but they settled instead for a valuable gold watch for Chuck Paul as the outstanding player on his team, while Roy Bannis- ter came away with a new suit of clothes won on a play er's draw.

Competing in very evenly matched leagues, our Seniors lost to Lisgar in the finals by the nar- row margin of tive points in their two-game total points series 3 out juniors gave us even greater thrills in defeating Glebe by one point on the round, while our Bantams bowed out graciously in in the semi-finals to Glebe who went on to win the championship. We are proud of the three great teams who wore our colours with distinction thoughout the season. Congratulations to the players and their coaches.

A keen student of the game, he absorbs every bit of knawlejge available, and the results are apparent in his play.

Bill Gillissie-Centre- Faced with the mammoth task of using his height at both backboards, Bill did a stand- ont job and carried much of the attack. Aimojolmstou-Forward- Aimo led the league in scor- ing until sickness interfered. This smoothie should be heard from in future vears if the Ottawa journal can do without him on Wednesdays. Don Cougblin-Guard-- Scrapping every minute of the time he was on the floor, the only thing that made Don mad was the scorer's spelling his name wrong. Ron Craig and Arnold Young-Forwards- The jelly' bean Duetng one on top of the other could not equal in height the boys they were playing against all year, but they didn't yield an inch to any opponent.

J. lflleureux In the Fall of 1945, a man in a muddy trench coat. a battered hat, and wearing glasses, and was seen working out the football team. Yes, it was Mr. W. L'Heureux, who in live years at Tech has coached two-junior and three Senior Football teams to championships. He not only coaches Football, but Hockey and Basketball too, having assumed the coaching job for the Bantam Basketball Team for the first time this year. Coach L'Heureux may seem meek, mild and fragile, but if he can handle Wilmot Glenn, Craig Pratt and a few others of those huskies 3 then, maybe appear- ances are deceiving. Bill is respected as a gentleman, loved as a coach, and admired by all the boys at Tech. Dir. A. J. Smith . Mr. L'Heureux may be able to work wonders with his team, but ourjuniors have Coach Smith for their miracle man. Through Mr. Smith's efforts Tech Guertin, john Gorman, Ron Heatley, Jerry Henry, Bill Holmes, Mike Sauve, Rolly Lemieux, Eli McKhool, and Paul Watier. The play takes place from 12:00 to 1:00 at noon and from 4:00 to 5:30 after school. The club held a school championship tournament that was won by Phil Dufresne. Brian Slinn Coming to Tech three years ago Brian has proved himself to be an all round athlete. This year his speed and drive were definite assets in boosting our junior Football team to the top in the Interscholastic League. A runner up for a Rough Rider Trophy, Brian should be a real asset to our Senior squad next year. Tennis Under the supervision of Mr. M. Robbie, the annual school tennis tour- nament took place during the few rain- less days of last September and Octo- ber. From the keenly contested matches Badminton With Mr. A. J. Hammond as super- visor, the Badminton Club has played since last November. The members held a home and home tournament with the High School of Commerce and then they improved to the point where they played the Senior Club. The club also sponsored the school badminton tournament. From this tournament Howard Roche emerged as the singles champion while Phil Dufresne and Rolly Lemieux were victorious as the doubles pair. The club also entered eight boys in the Eastern Ontario championships. The very successful first year of this club speaks well for the future of Badmin- ton at Tech. Ski Team The Tech Ski Team of this year has kept up last year's excellent record. The captain of the team was Russ Wilson.

ROWE This year brings to a close the reaching career of one of Tech's most eliicient and best loved teach- ers, Mr. Charlie Rowe. joining the staff in 1917 when this institution opened for the rirst time, Mr. Rowe has helped, in on small measure. to bring our school to the estimable position which it holds to-day. Perhaps. like the old tire horse. when he hears the bell next year he will want to dash to the fire again. Should such be the case. he may be assured ofa very warm wel- come at any time at Tech. For your thirty-three years of devotion to duty, leader- ship. guidence. patience and deep interest in the boys of Tech. we thank you, Mr. Rowe. May your twilight years be many. and bountifully filled with the happiness you so richly deserve. JAMES CRAIG To be elected Head Boy was a fitting climax to jim's career at Tech. Consistently a leader, jim has played on junior .ind Senior Championship Rugby and Basketball teams. Besides fulfilling his duties as Head Boy very cap- ably. he also found time to manage the Senior Rugby team last fall. The success of our school activities during the year is indeed a tribute to jim's leadership. MARCEL MAHEVV Ar present a hrst year student at Carleton College Marcel was the first winner of the Mercy Neal Southam Memorial Scholarship put up for annual competition among Tech Upper School students last year. This scholarship with a value of 5500.00 has given Marcel a good start on his first year course in Engineering. The scholarship may be awarded to it Tech student, based on his standing in the Senior Matriculation exam- inations held injune, entering Arts, Commerce or Science, or the tirst year of Engineering, at Carleton College. CLIFFORD QUINN This handsome broncho bustin' cadet came to Tech from Calgary entering Grade XI. Last year Cliff crowned a brilliant scholastic career by winning a 5600.00 R.C.A.F. Benevolent Scholarship to R.'M.C. To qualify. he had to try specia examinations in competition with candidates throughout Canada. To conhrm his victory he proceeded to rake all fitsts but one in his Matriculation papers. MR. -I. F. SWAYZE Mr. Swayze is nominated to our Hall of Fame partly because of his sublime position as Assistant Prin- cipal, partly because of all the work he has to do in arranging special time tables for us as well as in numerous other tasks, but mostly because he has always been a straight shooter with the boys and a darned good teacher. Mr. Swayze came to Tech from the Ontario College of Education in 1931 and soon became head of the English and History Department. While continuing as director of that department, he was appointed assistant to Mr. Hendry last year. We look forward to many successful years for Tech under the new team. DOROTHY FRANCIS 1 Dorothy has taken an active interest in our school functions ever since she first came to Tech. One of the few girls in the school this year, she is, nevertheless, a very talented one. It is hard for us to think of any pro- duction of a dramatic or musical nature that did not have Dot in its cast. Not only can she dance and sing, but she also can act very well. CHARLES PAUL In the world of sports Tech has had many champions, but this year's winner of the Mayor of Ottawa Trophy, an annual award to Tech's most outstanding athlete, Chuck Paul, is certainly one of the best in this class. As last year's winner of the Gerry Boucher Trophy, he played on his fourth football championship team. CHARLES PARMELEE Our pass-catcher de luxe, Chuck was selected as this year's recipient of the Rough Rider Trophy. This trophy is given annually to the most outstanding lineman in the Senior Interscholastic League. Chuck is well known through out the School as an outstanding gymnast, and track and field star 1 he is one of the best forwards in the Senior Basketball League. MARCEL PITRE This year's outstanding running half-back on our Senior Football team, Marc was awarded the Gerry Boucher Memorial Trophy as the most valuable player in the league. Last year he played junior Football, junior Hockey, and was a stand-out on our Track and Field team. In this, his first year of senior football, he really outdid himself and the trophy is a well deserved reward. 6o PD 91 af .LQ V, L :R Marcel Muheux w Clilford Quinn ' J, 1 . ,jg E 1 A I as wf MII.

'TX falfff i 194 1950 wlall School Clubs Continued from Page 30 Science Club Again this year the Tech Science Club has enjoyed a fine season of operations under the leadership of Messrs Morsvick and Merriam and our capable President Manson Thompson. Throughout the school year we have held meetings twice a month with various other ac- tivities coming between, such as field trips about the city to see our local industries in action, planning and preparation for the Spring Prom and our part in the Annual Concert. Individual experimenting in the labs. ensured the keen interest of the members in the club. The big event in our program is the field trip to some point of scientific interest out of town, taken once a year. In 1948 we visited the Angus Plant in Montreal, and in 19-i9 the Hydro project at Des joachims. The Executive under President Manson Thompson were Vice-President, Howard Roche 3 Secretary, Bob Shone g Treasurer, Norman Tape, and Dance Convener, Ross Iwlorton. -BOB SHONE Film Society This year the Film Society is under the direction of Mr. C A. Yeo. The executive is as follows: President, M. Lightstoneg Vice-President, M. Banchini, Secretary, john Moore, Treasurer, Harry Barber, Director of Edu- cational Films,-jim Clemens, Director of Athletic Films, jack Fenning, Director of Guidance Films, Bruce Straby. During the winter the Film Society tried to put on a show every Wednesday afternoon in the auditorium. Among the many varieties of films shown there were travel, instructional and guidance films, as well as a few cartoons. The Society also shows films at the fun nights. At the weekly meetings, the members are instructed in using the projector as well as being given other in- formation on projection. Interesting talks were given by Mort Lightstone who is an authority on the subject, for he has his license. -IOHN MOORE Junior Craftsmen's Club Our highly informative Club under the capable dir- ection of Mr.Willis and Mr. Hammond is for the benefit of printers only. As a group, we visit numerous printing establishments to increase our knowledge. Like any other conscientious club, we too have differ- ent forms of recreation which include stag and mixed parties and sports. The success Q I hopej of this organization is due to the combined efforts ofour hard-working committee with Gilbert I,aHaise, President g Martin Lebrun, Vice-Presi- dent , Bill Neale, Secretary-Treasurer 3 Bill Frieday, Social Rep. 1 Craig Pratt, Sports Rep. g and to the whole-hearted co-operation of our members. -GIL LAHAISE 62 Public Speaking Club One of the least talked about but most talkative of clubs is the Public Speaking Club. Its executive is com- prised of Hugh Morelaud, President g Ron Heatley, Vice- President ,joseph Lackner, Secretary. The purpose of the club is to train its members in the noble art of oratory. Opportunities are offered members to give both impromptu and prepared speeches. Construc- tive criticism and helpful pointers are supplied by both Mr. Shouldice and Mr. Robbie who sponsor the club. The instruction is valuable and should be taken advantage of by more students as public speaking is an asset to anyone. -j. LACKNER Craft Club The Craft Club has been meeting weekly in room 224. The Executives are President, M. Lightstoneg Vice-Presi- dent, Keith Davidson, and Secretary, Carl Fox. Among the crafts offered are leathetwork, woodcarving and shell craft. The weekly meetings have been attended regularly with an average attendance of 20. -CARL FOX HIIIBEIVGBII Call Walla,-From Page 32 To director Mr. N. O'Donnell, hats off and a warm hand shake for this, his fifteenth production, was one of very linest, and he deserves far more praise than could ever be written on paper. Here's hoping that his next play is as good as this year's. I School Concert-Pram Page 32 On stage, efficient Tech Scientists under M.C Hugh Moreland worked with a million volts of electricity before our astonished eyes. A modified hydrogen bomb gave the sketch a real bang up-job ending. The Trudel brothers, Ray and Larry, vocalized togeth- er in The Desert Song and Girl of My Dreams while with guitar, piano accordion and banjo Maurice, jean and and Ray, the three Lauzon brothers, displayed a smooth 1950 touch to the traditional old cowboy music. They exemplified a free and easy style. Perfect timing and exact physical co-ordination re- sulted in a marvelous demonstration of tumbling by the Gym Team. Smart somersaults, flips, cartwheels, and handstands had the audience ohing and ahing . Sparkling entertainment added to the success of the night in the form of an original one-act musical comedy William Tell . This original piece'was composed by the famous playwright team of Miss Anne Quinlan and Mr. Charles Monk. The play was acted to such songs as: When a Sheperd wants to whistle , It's a Great Coun- try We Live In , My Switzerland and They are being married tomorrow The leads were played by Dot Francis as Suzan, a Swish Swiss miss 3 Robertjuneau, Michael Tell, son of William Tell ,Roger Laframboise as William Tell, the watchmaker ,jack Donaldson as Gessler. 'amd J ng .isa my if 1, ff-ff' -I --4 STOP THE PRESS! just as we strike our copy deadeline, the grapevine brings us the unhappy news that two staff members of our Physical Education Department will sever their conf nection with our school at the end of the term. Mr. Bill L'l'leureux, who joined Tech's staff in 1945, has the enviable record of having coached five champion- ship Rugby teams since that time. Mr. Al Smith, who came to us a year later, also has a perfect score to his credit with four championships. Mr. L'Heureux turned out Hockey champions as well, while Mr. Smith lent his further talent to the development of Track and Field stars and the winning of Basketball championships. Mr. L'Heureux now goes to Western University, London, where he will assist in the Physical Education Department. Mr. Smith goes to Weston Collegiate and Vocational School, Weston, to join its Department of Physical Education. With sincere regret at the loss of these two excellent leaders, we, nevertheless, wish them continued success in thier new positions. We are grateful to both for the conf tiibution they have made to our school. - Good luck, Bill and Al ! -HOWARD ROCHE Teeh's Three Basketball Teams-c....f.....1f..... Page51 Seniors Tomat Dawe-Forward-Found it hard mixing Hockey and Basketball g plays a steady game. Ken Hojman-Guard-Best rebound man in the leagueg A valuable player when the going gets tough. A regular top scorer on his team. Bob Lafortune-Forward-A hard worker, Bob has im- proved very much ghis Erst year of organized Basketball. jack Deakin-Guard-Made an apt switch from for' ward g aggressive g checks close. Ron Hammell-Guard-Another tirst year man g always tries hard and has lots of light. Al MacDonald-Forward-The smallest man on the team 5 a clever ball handler, but hampered by his size. Red McKay-Forward-Lefty has a lovely left hand shot g slow but very shifty 3 hails from the West Coast. Cal Clowe:-Centre- Shorty is a rebound man, ex' ponent of a nifty layeup shot. Bob juneau-Guard-Back from last year's Seniors, Bob is very fast and checks his man hard. Juniors Doug Thompson-Guard- Pop tried to combine Hockey and Basketball with the result that he often con- fused the referee as well as the opposing players. john Gorman-Guard-After missing a year of Basket' ball, john came back. By hard work and constant practf ice he earned a place on the junior team. 64 Dalton McCambly-Guard--Another first year junior, Dalt showed signs of the ability that made hima Bantam star last year. Dave Stoate-Forward-Making a comeback after the lapse of a year, Dave pulled several games out of the fire with timely baskets. Harry Brown-Guard-Harry is another fugitive from last year's Bantam team and, like the other members of that team, showed great promise during the season. john MacDonald-Forward-- Mick is the smallest member of the team, but does his best to make up the lack of size by providing a constant line of chatter 3 a good player. Bantams Gerry Delisle-Forward- To his million dollar smile Gerry added an aggressive effort which, with a little more experience, should find him a solid citizen in Tech's Basketball future. Tony Fuoco-Centre- Tony worked hard all season and showed more improvement than any boy on the squad. Bill Fuoco-Forward-Brother Bill turned into quite a sharpfshooter towards the end of the season. Fred Radburne-Guard-When it came to sheer fight, Fred displayed plenty of spirit, saving most of it for St. Pat's. Against this team his set shooting put Tech into the playfoffs. Dante Caletti and Lorne Doyle-Beginners at the game, both gained a great deal from their year of basketball. Pat Barnabe and Ron Graham-Neither of these boys saw much action this year, but loyally attended all practf ices and games. V' 1 . W I if 1. .ir if Q' .4 Si f 1 .R X 6 -:,S!vbs -A: me if. L M A I H 1 Senior and Junior Rugby Review-Comm-edffom Peg-H2 Senior Team came to an end all too soon with the players regret- fully bidding farewell to their many cordial hosts at Union Station in Toronto. The hardest test of the year came in the last league game with St. Pat's, In a bitter battle wich listed as casualties, Rollie Lemieux fbroken nosel, Gord Peachy fcharley horsel, Chuck Paul fconcus- sionl, Roy Bannister fbruised elbowlhlack Deakin came through in the backfield with some bruising plunging, while Guy Pitre, Russ Wilson and Will Glenn helded up front to bring out a 6-1 triumph. The sudden-death semi-final saw Glebe bow out 19-1 before the pass attack of Mellor-to-Par- malee and Guy Pitre and the hard-driving line play of Craig Pratt and Larry Gray. Then came the long-awaited return test with St. Pat's in the final. Here little Biddy Wilson, Tech's Mighty Mite quarterback gave a brilliant exhibition of signal-calling to direct the team to a smashing 21-0 lead in the first half which virtu- ally sealed the doom of the Irish. Both this game and the second one fa 16-0 winl showed the depth of material of this year's team. Never before had players of such calibre as Deakin, Bannister, Mellor, Guertin, Dick Ridgeway, Cal Clowes and Larry Gray been faced with the irony of bench sitting for half a game. In a post-season vote the league honoured two Tech Seniors by presenting to Marc Pitre, the Boucher Trophy as the league's outstanding player and to Chuck Parmalee, the Rough Rider Trophy as the most valuable linesman. They could have mentioned jimmy Craig as the most valuable assistant coach for his help this season. Junior Team Don Poulin-R. Middle- Lightning tried hard to win distinction in two lines of endeavour. Won the title of least talkative player on the team. Al. Brown-L. Middle-One of the few second year players on the team, Al was everything a lineman should be,-fast, aggressive, hard tackler, and ajohnny-on-the spot whenever an opponent fumbled. Moe Grenon-R. End-Moe also tried to set a record -that of being the most injured player on the team. To add to a painfully sprained ankle, he punctured a kidney during the final game. He turned in some fine efforts. Bernie Manley-L. End-The only carrot-topped boy on the team, Bernie lived up to the reputation of all red-heads, by having playing a fiery, rugged game. jack Donovan-Halfback-A school Track star for several years, a former Bantam Basketball player, and finally a football backfielder, this just about completes the cycle for jack, who managed to save all his best efforts for the Glebe games, Lorne Rooke-Halfback-When dressed in a football uniform, complete with helmet, the problem was to find Lorne. Bob Black-Flying Wing-Bob probably holds the unofficial record for long runs on a football field- without the ball! He was given the job of trying to fake the opposing team. just to keep him from becoming bored, we threw him a pass-once! Ken Bemzett-L. Inside-Ken divides his talents be- tween the football field and clerking in the 15 cent store. Proved to be a real team player. Tom Clowes-R. Inside-Being the understudy to another player is no fun at any time, and this was doubly true in Tom's case. Unfortunately he was alternating with Bud Simpson, an all-star lineman, which meant that his playing time was comparatively short. A willing player. Doug Thompson-R. Middle- Pop was a late-comer to the football scene, and their is reason to believe that he delayed his arrival until all the hard conditioning work was over. With a recently fractured wrist, well- padded with tape, he was always a threat. Dick Keeler-L. Middle-Another handsome resident of Rideau Park , Dick played beside his close friend, Bud Simpson. This combination was quite successful, as they could discuss their social life while playing. Ken Anderson-R. End-With a good pair of hands developed through long hours of practice on the basket- ball floor, Andy was a sure-catch on forward passes. .Henri Turpin-L. End - Turp , along wtth Moe Grenon, formed the French-speaking portion of the Iunior team. A very small, wiry boy, Henri was always a source of amazement, because he was never injured. Don MacDonald-L. End-Overcoming an early sea- son injury Mac kept trying until he became a good player both offensively and defensively. Doug Mimzes-R. Middle- Old Faithful is a particu- larly good name for Doug. Always the first at practice and the last to leave, he was the team's work-horse. Ray Byers and Eric Yee-Being a team manager calls for a lot of work with little recognition. For the second year, these two boys have given their time to the team and thus assured it ofsuccess. The team offers its thanks. 65 Theatre of the Stars-coafwa from Page 11 heavenly bodies which may take days or weeks or years to complete can be clearly telescoped into view within a few minutes. Now let us consider some of the pos- sibilities of this theatre. First we shall joumey due north at 5000 miles a min' ute ffast enough to get around the earth in live minutesj. We tind the heavens rolling overhead from north to south and swiftly we arrive at the north pole. Now we lind the pole star directly over us in the centre of the sky. All the stars move around it, and we see the same stars all the time, and no new ones rise and none set. The sun simply rolls around the sky a short distance otf the horizon and is in sight all the time for six months. Next we travel down to the equator and here we notice the sun rises and sets straight up and straight down. Also there are always twelve hours of day time and the same for night time. On to the South pole, here we find no north star or any of the stars we saw up north . However, we find the great Southern Cross and the star called Al- pha Centauri. The important thing about this star is that it is the closest fixed star to the earth-twentyftlve trillion miles away. Also we find here the beautiful myriads of stars called the Clouds of Magellan. Now we return to New York and we see that only a few minutes have passed. One of the aids to the projector is in another room where scale models of all the planets are shown revolving around the sun. The planets and all their va' rious moons are modeled and every thing is to scale. The value of this is readily seen. In the planetarium, we are on the inside looking out, but on the scale model we are outside looking in on the entire system. Let us now return to the theatre of the Stars. Often it is necessary to install some fancy gadgets to supplement the work of the projector. Some really fantastic illusions can be produced by these extras. Let me tell you of some of them. The lecturer slowly turns a rheof stat and the visitors discover one of the stars coming slowly closer and getting brighter. He pushes a switch and a cos 66 mic ray counter begins to work. This is no illusion though, for at all hours of the day or night, no matter where we are and no matter what we do we are conf tinually bombarded by thousands of tiny particles called cosmic rays each minute. Other rheostats can produce the figures which the Greek and Roman astronomers imagined in the heavens- The Bear and other constellations. The lecturer can add to the sky a beautiful rainbow, the ring around the moon or the delicately coloured curtains of the northern lights. We can have colourful sunsets, realistic dawns, various cloud formations useful for studying weather. We observe a violent thunder storm complete with all sound effects includf ing wind, rain and thunder. The whole dome can be converted instantly into a huge hemispherical map of the earth to aid in navigation. The operator can produce as well all the necessary visual effects for a rocket trip to the moon. Arriving there we see a beautiful lunar landscape in complete colour with the earth spinning off in the distance which is now 240,000 miles. We may approach Saturn and see her rings or come up to the sun and see its sun spots. An interesting thing about the earth is its wobble which occurs every 26,000 years or so. This wobble has the effect of giving different stars the position of north star for a while. Since 26,000 years can here be condensed into a trifle over a minute, it is relatively easy to zip back through the ages and see the star Thuban occupying the po- sition now held by our north star. Similarly we can jump ahead into the remote future and see the brilliant star Vega attaining that esteemed position. lf you ever go to New York, the Hayden Planetarium should be on your must list. In itself, it is well worth the trip. Jnnah and Ark-Continued from Page 12 Hast thou not heard? We are going to open real soon a new zoo on Mount Arafat. Then why not take my whale along? It should prove to be a colossal attraction. lt grieveth me to sperm the idea, but 'tis no dice. And whyest not? H The smell of the whale would be offalf' Yea, and these animals you have here ain't exactly violets. At that precise moment Mr. and Mrs. Skunk went past followed by a train of little squirts. Mrs. Jonah shrieked and shouted : Takest thou me away from this place immediately! Compared with this, the whale smell- eth like a Spring Day !

QL. .l7lce igrincilaafji me55a9e CN JANUARY IQTH, 1950, we celebrated the Tenth Anniversary of the opening of the New Main Wing of the Ottawa Technical High School. As the programme in our Special Assemf bly unfolded, we paused to look back to that gala occasion when the late Lord Tweedsmuir, GovernorfGeneral of Canada, pronounced the words that officially opened our new building. In memory we traced through the inter' vening decade, remembering the 7,ooo civilians and veterans trained during the war years and the 2,285 students and graduates who served with the armed forces, we paid silent tribute to the zoo who did not return. While we cherished all these memories, we did not fail to look into the future. We ref alized that the great contribution made by this school in the past must be but the stepping stone to a greater one in the years to come. Every one of us, while at Tech, should so pref pare himself that he may be Htted to play his part in the wondrous future we believe lies ahead, a future in which this school, through its graduates, may serve faithfully and loyally the country we all love so well. It is a great satisfaction to be able to join with the editor and his staff in recognizing the outstanding services of Mr. T. C. Rowe, who has taught at Tech, since its Hrst opening in 1917. It is impossible to estimate the value of his contribution to those whom he has taught. To me, it is a privilege to pay tribute to our only original, a real gentleman and a real teacher.
