92 THE EcHoEs Form IB Acadfnzfc MISSES: Best, Bestard, Boyle, Chambers, Clark, Cunningham, English, Ferguson, Foster, Graham, Graham, Hamley, Hughes, Hunter, HuHman. Messrs.: Chate, Constable, Cox, Craig, Cranfield, Crouter, Crowe, Curtis, Eason, Elliot, Fee, Fowley, Gillespie. Over in one corner of IB form room are pupils copying notes, talking and amusing themselves generally. Girls rush in and out demanding if they have all their equipment, The hrst bell rings and in troops the rest of the class. Assembly knocks off part of the tirst period. Botany is quite easy Cfor someb, while Algebra considerably muddles others. Going up the dear, worn stairs some fall under the load of books but we finally get there. Latin is still more confusing. After the slaughter we stumble despairingly up to third tloor. At fourth period, Geography, we are looking very decidedly worn out. When the bell goes a great stir commences, pupils grab their books and rush out. Who is the Shirley Temple of IB who holds the P. C. I. Orchestra together by her magic violin playing? Who is it that trills blues songs like a real torch-singer in P. C. I.? Who are they that eat apples, shoot paper, play games and entice dogs to school?

Messrs.: Edward Gall, Edward Gorman, Clegg Hall, VVm. Hall, Ross Hart, Jim Hawthorne, Wilson Henry, Wm. Kemp, H. Kenner, Don Metheral, Doug. Moore, Ken. Mowry, Eric McBain, Harry McKnight. If Bill were a ROOM instead of a HALL1 If Edward were XVORMVVOOD instead of GALL: If KEMP didn't ask sill' questions in French, And GORMAN didn't bounce but sat still on his bench, If AGNES and JEANNE sat silent and mute: If AR DYTH were taller and not quite so cute: XVere Harry MCSQUIRE instead of Mc- KNIGHT, And MOXVRY didn't answer his Grammar all right, If Muriel were INCHES instead of just MILES. And JESSIE didn't know all Bolivian styles: If jim were not HAVVTHORNE but rather an OAK, And CLEGG with his wave didn't charm the fair folk, If Ross were a LIVER instead of a HART, And ERIC of Dickens had read a small part: If June were not PIDGEON but rather a DOVE, And IVA and CATHERINE their History did love: If Douglas were LESS instead of much IVIOORE. And Miss MILLER sat right next to the door: If Frances were THACKERAY, not RUS- KIN, by name, And Metherall, called DONALD, had a DUCK which was tame, If Betty, called PUFFER, were a PANTER of note, And Janet, our PROPHET, were a PEER quite remote. If Thelma signed WHISPER instead of MISS HOWELL, And FRANCES made BASKETS with never a foul, If Wilson, called HENRY, instead were a FORD, And GRACE by no subject could ever be bored - Then wouldn't our teachers bewildered all be, Because of these changes in poor old One-C ?

THE Ecnoias 91 Form IIC Acadenz ic CHOES' time againfand with it an interesting, brilliant attempt Cwe hopej to outline the activities of Form II C. Of course, we are a highly favoured form, brim- ming over with brains, looks, athletic ability, and what have you? Everyone from Mac Powell to Carmen Bell excels in some one thing, whether it be P. T. or Latin. Then, we have the outstanding girls' volleyball team, whose able captain is Margaret West- bye, and who won the Junior Championship. So far, our girls' basketball team, whose captain is Taffy Platt, has been successful in its games. Our congratulations go to Bob Crocker, who stole the show acting as Pyramus, in that tender love scene from A Midsummer Night's Dream. And also to Gwennie Bond whose interpretation of An Old Cowhand brought down the house. All in all, our Lit. programme was a huge success. Oral compositions seem to be the bane of Douglas Wolf's existence. But isn't it every- one's? VVe have also Meridith Miller- sketcher of feminine beauty, and Bert Bethune CScottyJ Hoot Mon. Aye, he's a funny lad. Normal students' brows are always wrinkled over that famous company of Richardson, Richardson and Richardson, Barbara, Betty and Shirley, respectively. In closing, may I compliment our form teacher, Mr. R. D. Brown, on his never-failing patience with us - Form II C. T, P, Form IA IRLSZ E. Armstrong, S. Ashby, H. Ballard, S. Boorman, S. Bothwell, D. Burnham, J. Burrows, D. Cathcart, H. Edmison, M. Edmonds, M. Hooper, J. Ire- land, A. Koster, A. McLeod, R. McNeely, J. Melton, I. Pogue. Boys: B. Ackerman, R. Ainslie, H. Amys R. Barrie, W. Bartlett, A. Black, K. Brock- well, J. Brown, B. Burrows, E. Clarke, J. Corbett, J. Ferguson, W. Gray, A. Marshall, J. Merrett, R. Mowry, A. MacNaughton, G. Windsor. Ah! IA Academic news. Wonderful! Colossal! VVhat is? Bill Bartlett's green tie with yellow dots, of course. Bill Bartlett is our form representative but just what he represents we're still trying to find out. And there's Ruth McNeely, short-but is she snappy! Her main ambition is to work in either Neil's or Agnew's shoe-store. Oh yes-4 there's Marge Edmunds-better known as Peggy. When she wants to go to the show, she says, 'Hew' will go with me? and the question is already solved. Ah, here is Benny Ackerman Cpelit garconl, who, if he has his grammar done, hasn't his French. And the Burrows kids: they mustn't be left out. If one of them isn't in trouble, the other one is. One day Benny A. and Bernard B. were walking across a little bridge over a stream. When they got over, Bernard said, My! VVR made that bridge shake, didn't we? And then we have the school colours, Garnet and Gray, also Brown and Black. John Corbet-Oh! His questions would try the patience of a saint, if there were any saints around here to try the patience of. Then there is Miss Melton, who can actually do Algebra! When she has worked out, and got the answer to a question, then Miss Hooper, Clark Mowry and Miss Edmunds also have theirs done. 'Shirley Bothwell is the one who gets 100 minus the 1 in Algebra, but who would K1CdCZ76'77ZZ-C V blame her when Mr. Craig gives us questions like this, eg., If A equals the cost of a package of gum, how do you find how much money lvlarshall loses per day? If you would like to become more intimate with us, come down and see us sometime. We probably won't be in, but come anyway. Oh, yes! You should see little Roger. He is a Barrie nice fellow Cpunj. Well, Good Hunting, Folks. PS.-Helpful Hint: Always wear wool- lens next the skin. P.P.S. f Never sit down quickly in a hot bath. CSee that the soap is in the holderj Isobel Pogue's theme song: Start me with ten who are nice-looking men. Ferguson: NVhy is a can of soup like a starched shirt? Merrett: Well?
