Arts Has Prominent Athletes X BCD Industrial Arts is the largest form in the department, housing about fifty versatile students. Our athletic members are Gord. Burns, Albert Woodgate Qbetter known as Ab.J, Jim Allen, whose eherubic appearance is deeeivingg Don Batley, a perpetual talking machineg Keith Burgess CCurly topj, tough little Bill Jones, Don llady- killerj Goheen, and Bob Crowe, who was responsible for most of the junior rugby victories. Youden, Harrison, Carruthers, Covert and Sharpe anticipate each P.T. period, they enjoy taking the exercises. Their burly physiques are daily scanned admiringly by the fair sex. Payne, Miller, Botnick, Rogers, Schoales, Dayman, Andrew, and Barrett sometimes enjoy a friendly chat during classes, but scowl when it is suggested that they stay after school for a less friendly discussion. Boxes have been secured to elevate Seymour, Pagett, Sanderson, and Marshall high enough to operate the lathes. fContimzed on Page 661 Introducing Household Arts X Allow me to introduce the girls of Household Arts X, including Elaine Savigny, accomplished seam- stress, Anne Brown, composer of witty verse, Mercedes Crowley, shy little farmeretteg Virginia Clark, stand-in for Gale Pageg Elsie Jones, capable form representative, Betty Wyatt, the mischievous twing Bar- bara Wyatt. the studious twin. We are deep in thought wondering if Pauline Fanning, Doris Finnie, Ruth Osborne, Edna Genge, Audrey Windsor, and Eleanor Haddow are as sweet and innocent as they ap- pear to be. Anyone knowing other- wise please report to room 79. The minds of Norma Wallace and Marjorie McGee are far from school wandering towards the airforce. To keep in style with all other forms we have a giggling bee. The most noteworthy numbers being Eleanor Chapman, Violet Weaver, Gladys King and Eileen Mc- Donough. fContinued on Page 661 Shall We Peek On IX A? Let's peek on IX A. We'll begin with Clarke who is subject to brain- storms and sometimes is inspired to write silly poetry. When started he can rhyme it by the yard. We who have felt the effects of Beatty's temper predict a great box- ing future for him. Maybe he'll be heavyweight champion of the world soon. The items needed in IX A are: A handkerchief that won't be blown to threads by Bucknell, a tie that hangs straight on Adams, skirts that would look nice on Craig fsuggested by Mr. Bamforthj, and a brain to replace Ashby's over-worked one. Let's look into B. Braund's matter, taking so much time in Math. period having private lessons. Grace Brunet's brown locks draw great attention at times. The class is buying a loud speaker for Gwen Abbott for answering in class. We notice that Kay Armstrong has an escort home from school every day. If N. Barr and M. Adams don't stop giggling so often, they'll be in Dutch. fC'07ltiIZ2l6Cl rm Page 661 IX B, The Gum Chewing Form IX B opens each day chewing gum supplied by lIr. Ted Chalmers. For this third year Gordon Copperth- wate is visiting IX B for a few weeks. M. Colley begins P.C.V.S. taking the upper hand of class. If B. Cavalier came with her homework done teachers would think it a miracle. VVhen O. Childs and J. Brisco and J. Brown have finished with their appearance they haven't time for lessons. The romance between M. Corbett and a tall young man in IX A is in full bloom. B. Combe, the hairdresser, gets great fun out of trying to rule Can- adian waves. When B. Cooke gets his trances he prances up and down the room. T. Cullen's and J. Dugan's hearts stop beating every time they see a pretty girl go by the door. If S. Cowie wasn't a singer, we wouldn't have a singin' period. The intelligent pupils in our form are B. Doris, G. Davis and D. Batten. During last periods of the day J. Crellin begins wandering around the room. fC'ontinued on Page 661 An Afternoon With IX C Monday afternoon in IX C and all the pupils doze drearily over French verbs. Peace reigns supreme - but hark! What is that strange noise we hear down the aisle? It must be Foster and Holbrook, exercising their manly newly-changed voices. There, seven seats back and one row across is Lenore Fleetwood ad- miring the latest shade of nail-polish on her tapering nails. Ah! here is itlarian Collins. She is captain of our volley-ball team who batted their way to fame, fortune, and the Junior Championship Pen- nant which is tacked over our form room door. Hurle is the form cherub.

The little lady who has just dash- ed in, upsetting all and sundry, my friends, is our famous fobviouslyj late getter-upper, Jean Cranlieldg late again! We truly believe that Jean will be the death of us yet. Mr. Richardson has reason to be proud of the girls' volleyball team, for did they not light fire and foe to return unscathed, - victorious, with the Intermediate Champion- ship! Orchids to the ladies and their captain, Marg. Barrie. Talented X B Academic X B is quite a class. Fanning and McCullough provide the fun for us. but evidently the teachers don't appreciate it. Lila ltlilburn, Sheila Macguire, Jean Ferguson, Caroline lNIcCabe, Gloria Lowney, a11d Len- ore Mather make up for the less talkative ones: Lois Humphries, VVillene Hope, Pauline Kempt, Max- ine Kidd, Bernie Hardie, and Jeanne Metcalfe. Have you noticed Gertley is always finding short-cuts and easier methods for his mathematics? Geral- dine Melton tackles figures in a dif- ferent way. Have you seen her figure-skating? Have you seen her fractured wrist? June Moore is our violinist. Edgar also fplays?l in the orchestra. Terry LaPlante and Dorothy Lar- mer supply fmusic?J for our locker- room. A certain girl finds it stimulating to her weak heart to walk with the boys' line. Why do Ruth Florence and Monica Lawless like the end of thc girls' line so well? At whom is Gray constantly gaz- ing over in the locality of Doris Moncricf and Jean Blodgett? VVhy does Galvin wink at the girls? Wanted: Somebody to do mathe- matics homework for McCullough, Smoke. Hall, Edmison. and Hooper. VVhy doesn't somebody inform Green, Ferguson, and Lillico that the bell rings at 1.30, not 1.45. Does Joan Leslie turn her head around to see the teacher better? We wonder. Adele Fitzgerald and Lyon are brilliant students. VVe have perhaps a future aviator in our midst- Earle Moorehead. Betty Mantell has certainly done her part in the sale of War Savings Stamps.-V.M. X C Academic Successful Form X C has been on the whole, successful this year. The boys were undefeated in basketball though, in spite of Bill Sisson's scoring, the volleyball team lost. Spike lilathews was the cap- tain of the junior football team. Pearl Trethewey, Jack Paterson, Roy Sutcliffe and Jack Taylor play in the orchestra. Our War Savings Campaign, in- spired by Mr. David Brown, has won us the Hag four times in succes- sion, owing to the efforts of Jean Powers, Joan Stenton, and Burton lNIcBride. The form executive representa- tives are Mildred Spicer, Charles Seal and Spike . VVe are represented in the Camera Club by Wren Tuckett, Shirley Pro- phet, Ruth Taylor, John VVright, Jack Taylor and Art Turner. George Sills, Jack Matchett, Bill Bloore, and Willie Stewart are all great drags on the class discipline. Tom VValsh dreams of Einstein's theory everywhere, including the Math. class. Elevating the class percentage are our two scholars, Joy Preston and Lois Wright, who hold scholarships. Why do Shirley Pringle, Ruth Tay- lor. Joyce Wyatt, and Joan Penhall flock Qiiunkl together?

Farmerettes are Eva Poast, Doreen Edwards, and Velma Staples who hail from Keene and district. Why does ltliss Howson always ask Marjory Schaus questions? Is it be- cause of her brain? VVe know Evelyn Halliday has plenty. Phyllis Upper is a swing fan. Stan Feneron, straight from Lon- don, England, is quite at home with the rest of the lads. Joan Smedmore, our scholarship winner is head girl. Your joint narrators are, reading from left to right, McTavish, Fen- eron, right to left Feneron, Mc- Tavish. X A Industrial Arts People are wondering if Noyes, Cuthbert, and Ariss are planning to join the House of David on account of a surplus of hair. Bloncrieff and Davis took a show- er one noon hour with their clothes on. Poor lads! Congratulations to WVelford who arrived late in the fall from Camp- bellford, yet ranked well in the Christmas exams. VVe wonder why Ed. Freeman doesn't produce his gym suit. Jim Mcllvena and Bill Torrance are the scientists of X A. Fat Manning is the carpenter and handy man of this form though he is asleep part of the time. Warren Smith, Blondin and Craig are the lads who woo the fair sex. Frank Draper is the doctor of all ailments in X A. Jim Cummings has been wearing the attendance sheet around his neck. It is very becoming. Norm Jewell has become very in- terested in poultry of late and con- siders himself an authority on this subject.

seraphic smile he marches blithely through this wicked world. Oh! Here is Miss Moore charging down the aisle with the light of battle in her eye. She stops at Johnnie Giardino's desk and asks if he has done his home work. He ad- mits with a sheepish grin that he has omitted to do that particular bit of work. She gives him a lecture while he seeks to shield his red face behind his French text. After this bit of diversion the class subsides and the girls play knots and crosses while the boys shoot paper ammunition hither and yon with a fine disregard for time and place. MZ. ESSENTIALS if .'

VVhen you enter the boys' locker room, who should be swing- ing it on the locker but tall, handsome Reg Hill. His encore is provided by Keith Green. Betty Florence, our make-up beauty expert, Yetta Fine the glamour girl and Ken Hopkins, who made a good punching bag for those of the more lively type, en- gaged in that work of exercising their jaws regularly. The boys will make excellent housewives, especially emptying in sweeping floors and drawers. Dorothy Gimblett could be wrong when she said that a British King was a souvenir, couldn't she? What would make Dorothy Hicks say that Daniel was eaten by the lions? The two sweethearts or rather bittersweets, are Reg Johnston and Fred Hayes. The feature attraction of the form are: Stan Joyes who would like to burn every French book in the school, Howard, Kath- leen Friendship, Barbara Gosselin, Helen Hall, Hazel Forsyth, Junkin, Johnson. Hamlin, Barbara Fimiie, Kubica Hayes, the Jones boys, Lil- lian Francks, Beverly Gibson, Hogg, hlargy Hughes, Howson. VVhat would Bob Hanbidge do without that all-purpose pen of his? Hope, often called lightning, is the star French pupil. IX E News Jean Johnston is the girl with tl1e meek little voice. Audrey Killingbeck is the shy one fsometimesl. Doreen Ingram giggles at anything. Glenn Hutchison is the gossip in the assembly. June Killingbeck likes her gum. Whenever there's a good show ask Yvonne about it. Josie Julian and Audrey Hogge never miss Miss Park's list. Audrey Harrison is our beauty expert. Isabel Heath is the girl Miss O'ConneI suspects when someone is talking. Betty Holbrook is our Literature Marvel, and John Lewis our great speaker. John Mc- Naught is a pet of Miss O'Connel. Warren Marshall needs a larger desk. Earnest Lee is a bright boy full of hard water. Lalonde is a sleepy head, especially in music. Jim Logan is a smart boy, but what a talker. James lVIcCormick and Harry Lam- bert need supports to stand up straight. Milligan is always wearing a smile except when he gets his pic- ture taken. Ex-pupils: Teresa Hef- fernan. Sheila Head, Olive Hanwell, and Edward King. The Merry-Go-Round With IX F Hi-Ho folks! Hop on the merry- go-round and come for a spin with IX F. VVhat would we do without L. Neary, Betty Leeming fform repre- sentativej, T. lVIilburn, Marjorie Kirn CG. A. A. representativel, to uphold our class standing? E. Pil- ling is our B. A. A. representative. J. Park and T. Primeau supply the class with humour. By the way, we wonder what would happen if the latter could stay awake long enough to get a pass in Mathematics. We would do well on a farm with Phyllis McKee, Daisy Magee, Merle Moncrief, Jean Blasters, C. Pavy, and T. lililburn. Why does Frances La Vallee hook her arm over the back of her seat in room 39? Could it be to see D. P. better? If it weren't for lilary King, S. hloore, and D. Patter, the history questions might not get answered. L. Outram, R. lilenzies, and L. Powers would make good tap danc- ers. At least, they can make a lot of noise with their feet in the corridors. Beverly lNIillar, lVIargaret Mc- Elroy, Barbara Long, Beatrice Mon- crief, Jean Larmer, Pat lilackey, Rita. lilclilillan, lil. lilartin, J. 0'Brien. and A. Nesbitt do enough talking to make up for Joyce Mc- Quade, Rosaline Lasenby, and W. Porter. This is the end of the ride, folks. We hope you aren't dizzy. IX G Has Champion Tree Climber We have in our form a number of people with the same name. There are the Reids, Richardsons, Robin- sons, and the Moores. The Richard- son clan consists of Sheldon, Morris, and VVilfred, with lNIorris as the champion tree climber. The class has agreed that the orchestra would be much better off if someone would kindly throw a bone to Henry Rob- inson and Ruth Poulsom. Joe Rob- inson has been taking a series of nosedives lately and we're wondering whether it's because he is joining the air school or whether he's still fas- cinated with Joyce NlcDougall. We have seriously thought of buying a microphone for Hilda Noble because if she spoke louder Clara Ruskin might get past the third line of her poem. Teresa O'Toole and Jack Rus- selle have had their fortunes told, that is they will never be good writ- ers if they keep using fountain pens.
