A Personal Word From The Headmaster This academic year the College has been under new conditions of stewardship. Mr. Beer, the Headmaster, has been on a sabbatical leave, travelling in Europe and Africa, and will be returning to take over the helm in September. During the course of the school year, it has been a privilege and an honour to have had an opportunity to share, along with a fine staff and an excellent student body, in the direction of all phases of school life. This combination firmly establishes in my mind the personal satisfaction gained from being dedicated to such a worthy field of endeavour. lt has been most gratifying to see the reaction of students under pressures of team play, theatrical productions and examinations, and realize how fortunate the community has been to have had such strength of character, balance and leadership. Each student has contributed to making this a most successful year. All students have developed within themselves a deeper appreciation of that inner discipline which is so important in making the correct decisions and accepting group responsibilities. The students who are graduating this year will give the firm quality of leadership so important and necessary to the new communities of which they will become a part. The students who will be returning in September will have a high standard to maintain and I am sure that they will carry the torch of success to greater heights. The following essay has been an inspiration to many great men and I would like to pass it on to you to help guide your thinking in the future. Youth is not a time oflife A it is a state of mindg it is a temper of the will, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions, a predominance of courage over timidity, of the appetite for adventure over love of ease. Nobody grows old by merely living a number of yearsg people grow old by deserting their ideals. Years wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, doubt, self-distrust, fear and despair e these are the long, long years that bow the head and turn the growing spirit back to dust. You are as young as your faith, as old as your doubts, as young as your self-confidence, as old as your fearg as young as your hope, as old as your despair. So long as your heart receives messages of beauty, cheer, courage, grandeur, and power from the earth, from man and from the infinite, so long are you young. When the wires are all down and the central place of your heart is covered with the snows of pessimism and the ice of cynicism, then you have grown old indeed and may God have mercy on your soulf, Eric M. Veale, Acting Headmaster. eight

Graduating Class STEPHEN JIM Stephen Jim, another of our friends from Hong Kong, spent two years at Pickering College and was very successful academically. He enjoyed participating in sports, especially soccer and curling, but we wondered sometimes where he was to be found during soccer practices. Stephen was very happy here and never really missed Hong Kong. Next year he hopes to go to Oueen's. 's-us. ROBE R T RA DE R This was Rob's first year here on the hilltop and he achieved a degree of unparallel athletic excellence. He also achieved, in the field of academics, a degree of excellence which evades description. He hopes to attend a University in America next year and eventually to enter the U.S. Marine Corps under the title of Sergeant Bob Rock. When Rob leaves the hilltop he will take with him his prize collecti'on of dust. wigs!

Sports and dramatics were areas of major con- tribu tion during Bob's five- year stay. Aviation features heavily in his fu ture plans. 1115 'rr nine
