This year is presided over by the capable and Kennedy. Some outstanding students are: Richard Sandpaper Dickens,Mr. Penney's person- al pride and joy fironicallyj. john Tiny Baxter is our replica of Humphrey. Our match for Rip Van Winkle is respected Mr. P james Sleepy Ryan, who looks as if he were asleep- when he isn't eating. Doug Casanova Gauthier is a natural Romeo, and has about the most enviable Date Book in the School. Gerry Switzer, who is our only contribution to the band, designed our class crest. The Executive for 10-PQ is as follows: President, Morris Finklestein 3 Vice-President, Don Hotley g Secre- tary. Bill Slack g Athletic Rep., Richard Dickens 3 Tech Talk Rep., yours truly, Don Hagan. Early in the year, four adventurous young students from our classg namely, Chuck Lucas, Dick Dickens, jack Lalonde, and Bill Slack attempted to journey south of the border to Syracuse, New York, but because of circumstances beyond their control, they were obliged to go only as far as Watertown. Not to be daunted by minor trivialities, our travellers intend to to Canada's Banff National Park mer vacation. WCS! l0-TU In our school of Tech christened 10-TU. We are Johnston in Room 302.

Arthur. We think he is the best teacher in the school. 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. Walter Satov, a popular student in our class, made himself more popular by taking the leading part in Tech's Annual Play Heav- en Can Wait. He acted the part of joe Pendelton. 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. Sleepy time William Boxall sometimes to keep awake in the Science ever, the class as a whole, I would still at Tech. -DAVID PURDIE in 11-R build scale model houses under the of Mr. Woolley of Room 223. Our hails from 11-Q, the other part of our while Don Reynolds and Don Fergusson are the Rep. and Tech Talk Rep. respectively. a few of our teachers seem to have a mistaken n that 11-R consists of a bunch of shiftless On the contrary, I assure you we have a lot of fellows in our group. For instance, there is and Maurice Taillifer who are our class can- for perfect attendance for one week. The of our class is made up of jim Walker, jim Max Schinzel, Delmer Hayes, Linus from Manotick, Ronald fChore-Bootsj Martin, Bill Williams, Don Reynolds, Charlie Vallillee, Don Fergusson, and lastly Sparling and Archie Mulligan who are trying to become deer hunters. -DON FERGUSSON X ,

9-XY sta the capable supervision of Mr. Bergin. The class officials in this out of the world class- at least that's what the teachers tell us-are Class Presi- dent, Dante Caletrig Vice President, Dave Finley, hard- working Treasurer with no treasury, Irving Gencherg Tech Talk Rep., jack Wight, and last, but not least, is our Athletic Rep., jimmy Fermoyle. 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. Our very understanding form master is Mr. Brule. And now for the cream in your coffee, the boys of 9-KL. On the intellectual side, we find Ghost Emond and Denis Laframboise. The morale builder of the classf?j Oh l that laugh, is it not familiar? Why its Bert Deslau- riers of course. Pete Belisle, the character who calls him- self Pancho is always with his rootin', tootin', shootin', partner Leo Gauvreau, alias Cisco Kid . jack Beausejour is the shy type. Blonde, handsome and brawny, he treads the only trail up to Immaculata every noon hour accom- panied by Paul Gauvreau and jack Charron. Our artists are Robert Charron and Lesage. They draw us our future homes and wives. Now for musicians: Mathee harps at the mandolin while Moe Marleau blows his gums out into the mouth organ, and finally ! l ! ..... Crash ! ! 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
