Robert Frost. Every year differs but every year follows a certain pat- tern: a newly graduated class replenishes the ranks of Canada's Armed Forces, the membership in the Ex-Cadet Club and the working capital of various car dealers and tailors, the marital status statistics change at the rate of approximately seventy new households, a great loss to the bachelor society lon both sidesl. Every year a newly graduated class marches symbolically under the Arch Cmost of them in bucket seatsj towards a future which, to most, is unknown but by no means uncertain. Every year approximately two hundred young men leave the College with the satisfied feeling of a job well done, a special bond of pride common only to Graduates. Every year, of course has its ioys and its pains, some serious, some minor, but always, it seems, overcome. Every year also sees the addition of new faces to RMC, some still very young, others with the touch of maturity ac- quired at one of the two other Colleges. Every year the ones who are about to leave, the ones that have just arrived and, of course, the all-the-way types participate in num- erous extra-curricular activities, ranging from representative sports to social activitiesgand every year the cadets seem to take an added interest in these. Every year the REVIEXV attempts, amateur-like but with enthusiasm, to capture the highlights of the events which are instrumental in making Graduation so significant and yet so melancholy . Every year, of course, the members of the REVIEVV Staff swear to outdo their predecessors and every year they leave the College with the uncomfortable feeling that per- haps they have failed. I-lowever, every year the experience of editing the REVIEW' is unique, this year certainly not being an exception, although it vzarnrfrlly was an exceptional one. The following pages of the REVIEXV do not attempt to cover ALL the events of interest for 65-66 since this would indeed be impossible. Nevertheless, we have attempted to RE- VIEVV what we feel should be remembered. VVe hope that you agree with us. Acknowledgement lt must be mentioned that the following pages are the product of the combined efforts of not only those shown on the preceding page but also of several other Cadets and Staff members. Again this year FXL Len Kubas deserves special mention for his co-operation. The Editorial Staff also submitted a list which cannot be printed here because of lack ot space. But to all those who gave a hand, we would like to extend our many thanks. 5 F OR WARD As Minister of National Defence, and as Chancel- lor of the Royal Military College, I welcome this opportunity to. congratulate the Commandant, the Staff and Cadets, particularly those of the graduating class, on the successful completion of another acad- emic year. I am sure all Canadians share my pride in the traditions of academic excellence and leadership provided by R.M.C. We must continue to strive in the pursuit of excel- lence. The vast expansion of the field of knowledge together with the new ideas and concepts which continually emerge makes us all cognizant of the need for continued leadership, not only in the military forces, but in other pursuits as well. Those of you who are graduating from R.M.C. this year have been given an academic foundation second to none. Upon this foundation you will build your careers. As you go forth to take up new duties, I urge you to remember that education never ceases. The demand for excellence is ever increasing, and this demand is largely measured in terms of continuing education. Some of the graduates will pursue further academic honours. Others will enter into new ven- tures and new concepts of the military organization. Both avenues provide exciting and challenging pros- pects. Both will demand excellence. At R.M.C. you have been given every opportun- ity to exchange cultural views and learn the two offi- cial languages of Canada. You have worked together, played together, lived together, and learned together. Now as you leave R.M.C., you leave not as French Canadians or English Canadians, but Canadians - well aware that two cultures can exist side by side, in harmony. From each other you have learned toler- ance and respect. These are desirable qualiications for leadership. Much of the credit for excellence and leadership belongs to the Commandant and Staff of R.M.C. It has been their task and responsibility to provide you with the basic educational and military foundation. They have carried out their tasks successfully and unspar- ingly of themselves, Their satisfaction lies in their desire to produce the leaders of tomorrow. The returning cadets will have a considerable example to follow. It will not be an easy task to im- prove the pattern, but I am sure they will. The pursuit of excellence is never ending. I am very proud to occupy the position of Chan- cellor of R.M.C. as, I am sure, that all members of the Staff and Cadets are proud to participate as mem- bers of R.M.C. I congratulate you all for a iob well done. CONTENTS Editorial . .,,, ,,.,. ,i . .... .A ..,, Hon. Paul T. Hellyer, Minister of National Defence Address to Convocation . ..,. ..

Birchall, Commandant. ADDRESS TO CONVOCATION May 27, 1966 Dr. O. M. Solandt, OBE, MA, MD, DSC, LLD, MRCP, FRCS Dr. O. M. Solandt, born in Winnipeg in 1909, obtained his B.A. degree from the University of Toronto in 1931. Since that time, he has fashioned an outstanding career as a research scientist and plan- ner. In 1944 he became Superintendent of the Army Operational Research Group, after the war, in 1947, he became the first Chairman of the Defence Research Board, a post he relinquished in 1956. He has since held many responsible positions in the government service and in industry. This outstanding Canadian has received eight honorary degrees and numerous ADDRESS T0 Mr. Chancellor, Commandant, members of the staff, ladies and gentlemen: I am greatly honoured by your invitation to come to R.M.C. today to receive an honorary degree. I am doubly honoured by being given the opportunity to address you. I shall begin by expressing the most sincere thanks, both personally and on behalf of Admiral de Wolfe and Dr. Lanctot, for the honour that you have done us today. other awards in recognition of his accomplishments in research and scholarship and for his service to his country in both peace and war. He was a Governor of Sir George Williams University from 1957 to 1963 and is at present a Governor of the University of Toronto, being elected Chancellor of that university for the period 1965 to 1967. just prior to the delivering of the Convoca- tion Address, the Chancellor of R.M.C. announced the Prime Minister's appointment of Dr. Solandt as Chairman of the newly constituted Science Council CUNVOCA TION I was particularly pleased to be invited to receive a degree at R.M.C. because of my very high opinion of the past record and the present quality of the institution. It is a university of which all Canadians can well be proud. My pleasure today is completed by your choice of the other two honorary graduate s. Dr. Gustave Lanctot is a young man of 83 years who has had several careers. He is known to many as a former Dominion Archivist, but will probably be even better known to posterity for his definitive his- torical writing on Canada under the French Regime which has been done since his retirement. Admiral de VVolfe is widely known as one of Canada's most famous and successful sailors. He has been a close and valued friend of mine for almost twenty years. During his tour of duty as Chief of Naval Staff, he completely won the respect and affection of all the members of the Chiefs of Staff Committee. His ability to see the point of view of the other services did much to establish the climate of opinion which has made possible the successful creation of the Canadian De- fence Force. Very early in my work with DRB, I became in- volved in the discussions about the re-opening of RMC. At that time, opinion did not unanimously sup- port re-opening and there was a prolonged and lively discussion. I well remember a final session in which opinion was turning in favour of re-opening and Principal Wallace of Queen's broke the tension and tipped the balance decisively by asking that RMC be re-opened in order to avoid possibly disastrous effects on the personalities of the male undergraduates of Queen's. He explained that ordinarily the men out- numbered the women at Queen's to such an extent that the men might well get an exaggerated sense of their own importance because of the ease with which they could get dates. He said that over the years com- petition from RMC had kept the Queen's men on their mettle and added greatly to the morale of Queen's girls. Principal Wallace was one of Canada's greatest educators and I hope that over the years the RMC cadets have vindicated his faith in their com- petitive spirit. It used to be a tradition for the convocation speaker to give some sage advice to the graduating class. I am told that in these enlightened days an occasional con- vocation speaker resists temptation and reiects the tradition. I must warn you that I do not intend to re- sist. My father graduated from Queen's in Philosophy and Divinity and went into the Presbyterian and later the United Church ministry, so when I warn you that I intend to deliver something approaching a sermon, you will understand that I came by this tendency honestly. The text on which the sermon is based is this - You have received an exceptionally fine educa- tion, in accepting this education you have accepted also an obligation to use this education not purely for personal aggrandizement, but at least partly for your community, the nation, and even the world. Univer- sity education in Canada in general is very good, but your education at RMC has been outstanding in at least three important characteristics. First, there has been exceptional emphasis on bilingualism. All of you have at least a start toward the effective use of a second language. Second, all of you have had a broader than average education because of your faculty's in- sistence on giving more of the humanities to the scientists and engineers, and giving at least an introduc- tion to science to the arts students. Thirdly, and most important of all, you have had an unique exposure to life in a well-organized and disciplined community. You have learned more than you yet realize about how to live in a group, how to be a leader, how to be self-disciplined, and how to discipline others. You are going into the services and into the life of Canada at a very exciting time. lfrom the view point of service life, you are entering at a period when unification is becoming a reality. You will be the ones who will make it work and I firmly believe that with your help the Canadian Defence Force will become a model for the military forces of many other nations. You will be among the first officers to start your career in a unified force. You will be able to see its problemc free of the influences of old associations. You will make a vital contribution toward establishing new traditions and a new esprit de corps for the uni- fied force. In doing this, you have a magnificent foundation on which to build. All three Canadian services have a record in peace and in war of which every Canadian can be proud. If you can meet the challenges of your times as well as they have met the challenges of theirs, you can feel that you have done a first class job. This is not going to be an easy assignment. You are setting out on your working careers at the begin- ning of the space age, at a time when the world is changing at a bewildering pace. Research is pushing out the boundaries of knowledge faster than ever before. Rampant nationalism is changing political boundaries overnight. Population pressures are increas- ing and the rich grow richer as the poor grow poorer. I am convinced that during your lifetime the world will divide into the haves and Uhave-nots . Unless rich and fortunate countries like Canada can find some way to help the have-nots out of their desperate poverty, a nuclear holocaust is almost inevitable. You, as the leaders of the future, must take over the task of solving this and other equally pressing problems. Possibly the most important thing that you have to contribute to Canada as you go out into the world is your training in leadership and discipline. I person- ally take what may well seem to be an old-fashioned view, that a good many of the ills of the world to- day are due to lack of group and community disci- pline which, of course, stems from lack of self- discipline. A person who has disciplined himself to achieve the goals to which he aspires, becomes more amenable to the group discipline needed for success- ful community life and also begins to understand both the problems of and the need for leadership. In most universities, students learn about leadership merely by example. They are not explicitly instructed in lead- ership and have no opportunity of practicing it in a controlled commuity such as yours. There are even some who doubt the value of the kind of discipline and leadership training that you get at RMC. It is up to you to prove them wrong. If the skeptics would look at the record of RMC graduates of the past, they would see an outstanding record of achievement. Canada and the world desperately need your ability as leaders and I hope that you will go out in-to the world determined to maintain and even improve RMC's great reputation for producing effective leaders. sw'-rf g Y THE CLASS OF 1965- 66 PROJECT i X' ls' 5 6 . 6 f 1 my ,3A1,tg,iv K :xf' l T ,mls A 4 li' f I g, V ' 1 C.,,.- wma, Ewa . Mfg: va- , . g'.. M - fgw i.:.J .K at R0 TE 66 This year the Class of 66 was faced with a -delemma: What would we be remembered by in the years to come, what would our contribution be, would we leave a plaque, a trophy, or would we again darken our halls with stained glass? After many meetings and various discussions we came to the conclusion that our Class Project would have to be something decorative and useful Cnot to say earthyj. Looking around the College grounds, it became obvious to those in charge of the Project that something had to be done about the ugly yellow path leading from Lens Lane to Massey Hall, a path which was cut by the very people who had a dilemma to solve. It was decided that our contribution would not only be useful but amendatory. Hence ROUTE 66 was conceived and eventually, after walking and stomp- ing over many obstacles, laid. It is hoped that our gift to the Cadet Wing will last as long as our memory o'f the College and that all those who use it will appreciate its convenience. I 6898 RICHARD SHOLEM JACOB COHEN Montreal, P.Q. In the tradition of Canadian history - compromise mixed with respect for minorities - Richard was early marked for the appointment of CVVC of R.M.C. Dickie, as he is known to his close friends had his first brilliant debut on February 27, 194-1, head first in a blaze of glory. One would think that he would have burned himself out early, being top athelete and a prefect at Northmount, but with a remaining flicker he joined the militia - the Royal Canadian I-Iussars. After graduating from Northmount, he worked as a deckhand on a freighter to Europe. Eventually his travels ended in Israel. Between Working and shooting, he found time to spend a semester at the I-Iebrew University of Jerusalem. Dick returned to Canada in 1961 and successfully failed his C.M.R. entrance exams. I-Ie was, however, eagerly accepted at McGill, where he joined the COTC as an infantry-cadet. During this year, he applied for ROTP and in 1962 was sent to RMC. Hence he was highly successful in all facets of College life, including such fields as athletics, dramatics, and skylarks. In his final year he was not only co-captain of RMC's Foo-tball Team but also Cadet Wing Commander. To top off a remarkable Senior year he won an Athlone Fellowship, and was selected by the Princes Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry. You have done a fine job, Dick and the best of luck in the future. A.B.W. 6903 TERRY LEWIS DOYLE Nanton, Alta. In the early summer of the year 1962, Terry Lewis Doyle mounted a western steer and began to trek eastward. In the month of September of the same year, Terry with the steer practically dead beneath him, decided to terminate his voyage at Royal Military College. Two significant events occurred that first day. Terry received his first charge and the college kitchen received a four-year supply of beef. During the years that ensued, Terry managed to adjust to his strange eastern surroundings. In the course of events, he tamed an eastern woman who in turn will take him into captivity right after graduation, Terry was one of those few at RMC who knew how to combine high military, academic,and athletic standards. His reward was an appointment as CSL of 5 Squadron, an appointment which turned out to be gratifying for those closely associated with him. A member of the Senior Hockey Team, which beat VVest Point, Terry repre- sented the spirit and determination that resulted in victory. In short, Terry has become a civilized easterner. The pilots of the Air Force will find him in their ranks next year. There he will become a gain- and a problem. Good luck, Terry. 6908 BARRY MICHAEL GRACE Ottawa, Ont. VVhat do they say about june babies? They say june babies should go to R.M.C. So, on that warm june day in 1944, Barry immediately packed his bags, marched out of the maternity ward and set off for that hallowed military college. He bravely thrashed his way through high school in Ottawa, graduating as an Ontario Scholar in 1962, Coming from a Service family, he was well trained in the Principles of VVar. Applying these, he proceeded on to his goal in Kingston. From the day Barry first doubled on to the R.M.C. parade square until the day he marched off, he has never failed to give his best. Barry, always full of drive and determination, has tackled such sports as gymnastics and harriers. He has in turn been tackled in intermediate football. Ever ready to lend a friendly ear and a warm smile, he has made many friends both inside and outside the college. ln recognition for his outstanding efforts, he was the perfect choice for DXCYVC in his senior year. Displaying the true R.Nl.C. spirit, Barry has gone on an extended recruiting campaign. Besides adding his brother to the college roster, he has infiltrated the hollowed walls of K.G.H. in order to expand the Grace household by one more member lfor the presentl. Showing that he can handle all sides of the life here at the college, Barry has maintained his high academic standards, which have won him a National Research Council Bursary. He will be going to the University of Tor- onto in the fall to study for his Master's degree in Physics. U VVhen he finishes his post-graduate work, Barry, being a Gunner by trade, will be reioining the Fourth Regiment of the RCHA. ln this, as in everything you do, Barry, we all wish vou the best of luck. D-L-M- 7UO7 jAMES TERRANCE OLIVER JONES Markham, Ont. Terry llStump graced the world with his presence on May 14, 1942 and spent the first few years of his early life making life miserable for his parents. After he had completed high school, his father decided that the thriving metropolis of Markham was too small for both of them, so they packed their bags and Terry spent a year and a half teaching the good life to the iet set in Europe. Returning to Markham and finding that the town had IlOt grown at all, off he went to Royal Roads and a career in the RCN. At Roads he spent two years trying to keep ahead of the professors in the classroom and his squadron on the square. During the summers he cut a swath up and down the Pacific seaboard of the U.S.A. and thus gained the distinction of being the only cadet in Hawaii to get his uniform wet from the waist up in the swimming pool. In his third year of Canservcol, he came to R.M.C, and supported the big red 2 Squadron so well on the football field and in the pool that they gave it to him for his senior year. Although his schedule has been crammed full this year Cher name is Diannel, he still manages to find time to keep up his reading in his Honours English course and to exhort his squadron to higher endeavours in their battle for the left of the line. Upon graduation, Terry plans a flight into matrimony Cthe big date is june 41 and as a sideline he will include Navy pilot-training-if he can still see out of the cockpit. I speak for our whole class when I congratulate a guy whose excellent Sense of humour and wit has brigtened all our lives at one time or other. XVe wish both him and his wife-to-be every success and the best of luck in the future. M DC 6928 RICHARD DOUGLAS MOON Fergus, Ont. On 17 April 1944, to add to the general good fortune of the Canadian Armed Forces, Doug came on the scene in Ottawa. Deciding, after a short stay of one year, that the big city life was too much for him, he headed for the wide-open spaces of Fergus, Ontario. Shortly after arriving at Fergus, Doug began his illustrious school career which culminated with honours, a memorial scholarship and acceptance at R.M.C. YVhile in high school, Doug was a master athlete as well as a member of the Militia Artillery, in which he rose to the rank of Bombardier, Thus, seeing the great possibilities of service life, he came to R.M.C. as a confirmed gunner. Doug arrived at R.M.C. on September 6, 1962 and immediately began to display his outstanding qualities of leadership in all three phases of College life. Academi- cally, Mooner has had a 70 average for three of his four years, on the athlete side, he has been even more successful. Representing the College in three major sports as well as countless intramural sports, Doug is truly one of R.M.C.'s no-glory athletes starring as a runner on the Track Team, as a halfback on the Senior Football Team, and as one of the best all-round competitors on the Gymnastics at R.M.C. Naturally, Doug picked up four bars in his senior year, and as CVVRO has kept the College recreational activities running in superb fashion. He has spent the past few summers at Camp Shilo, Manitoba, where he has distinguished himself to the point of being awarded the Col. Stewart Trophy for the best cadet in Second Phase. The future sees Doug graduating with a B.Sc. in Math and Physics and headed to 4 RCHA for what promises to be a brilliant career. Best of luck for the future, Doug.

JA M C . .i . . 6932 ART HUR ROSMARK NEILSEN Toronto, Ont. Some say that September 13, 1943 was a peaceful, sunny day in Svenborg, Denmark - that is, until Art broke the silence with his mournful yell, The Great Dane decided to come to Canada in 1958 - Denmark's loss and Canada's gain. Despite his favour- able iimpressions of the blissful Maritimes, he settled in Toronto. Art came to R.M.C. ffor no apparent reasonl and quickly became one of the outstanding cadets in his year. During his stay in the Frigate, Toe has played rep soccer and volleyball, for which he has won an Outstanding Athlete Award for two years in a row. Not being content to excel in sports alone, he found time to do a stint as Sports Editor of the REVIEVV fthird yearl, to take part in the Friday night Outer Limits Club, and to ace Electrical Engineering. Consequently, it came as no surprise last spring when f'The Great Dane was chosen captain of HMCS Stone Frigate. When the Frigate was put in harbour for repair this year, the Captain transferred his crew to Fort Haldimand. XVhile there, he has managed to maintain the traditional relaxed atmosphere that some envious inhabitants across the square might call slack. This fall Art hopes to be off to Centralia to pursue his interest in aviation. judging from his success as a naval cadet at R,M.C., we are sure that, if he pursues life with the same drive and enthusiasm that he has shown, in his life at the college, he will have a promising and productive future. From all your friends, Art, good-bye and good luck. MCP- 7064 DAVID JOHN SKINNER Ottawa, Ontario Suffice it to say that L'Skins was born in 1944, and being of a service family, did considerable moving during his formative vears. Graduating from Fisher Park High School in Ottawa, Dave enrolled in R.M.C.'s answer to a prep school CRoyal Roadsl, bent on pursuing a career in the army. His previous military experience in both army cadets and the militia stood him in good stead in adjusting to the rigours of service life. As testimony to this adjustment he graduated from Royal Roads as DICWC. Arriving in Kingston, to which he was no stranger, having attended some high school here, Skins set about playing his Artsman's role with vigour. If he couldnlt. be found somewhere in the basement of the library unearthing Canadiana, he was almost sure to be in the PIT. He did, however, find time from his demanding schedule to express his many and' varied talents by playing Senior Football, and strumming rhythm-guitar for the Ascots, in both his third and fourth years. On the gridiron, Dave became known as a tough competitor, always at his best when he was carrying the ball, leaving would-be tacklers in his wake, In his Senior year Skins was made CSL of 4 Squadron, a job well suited to his stern but patient and fair nature. Under his able leadership, the squadron prospered as never before, winning numerous wing com- petitions. ' Upon graduation, Dave is off to nurture his second fhe's marrying the first? great passion, the Armoured Corps-from the vantage point of a posting to Germany. In his new job, which will demand lots of ulocal smoke and fancy footwork , we of the squadron and the graduating class wish him happiness and continued success.

Born on 2 April 1945 in a Linlithgow, Scotland, jim was the fourth of a family of seven children. VVhen he was nine, Jim's family came to Canada and settled in Calgary where he began to cultivate the 'clean-cut kid' image. Although 'jS's' first date was at Roads, one could say that he was forced into sex and since then he has left a trail of broken hearts from Victoria to Goose Bay. For his four years at CSC jim has been active in all sports. During the two years on the VVest coast he was an outstanding halfback on the soccer team and helped other rep teams such as basketball, hockey and rugger, On coming to RMC he continued his efforts directing them mainly towards soccer, intermediate hockey and the odd rugger game. Coupling his desire and experience in sports with his organizational ability, Jim was a natural choice for CVVSO, and although he has spent many a night as referee and judge over his domain, 'the Boss' has done an outstanding job for the wing this year. jim was a member of the last group of RCAF pilots to train on Chipmunks during summer training and since that humble beginning he has been counting the days until he will graduate and become a true 'H.P.' On May 28, jim and his 'Cat' will be heading West and we all wish him the best of luck in his future career. CA word of warning Loser ll, - some day you'll get caught! J. K.E ,S. 7083 ANTHONY BLAKE VVYAND Sussex, England Tony was born in Crowborough, England, November 24, 1943. Up to the age of ten, he and his family shuttled back and forth between England and the Canadian Colonies. In 1953, the VVyands moved to Ottawa, and later to Camp Borden. Tony was promptly shipped off to Lakefield College School near Peterborough, Ontario. Here, he was head prefect during his last two years, while managing to win several top academic awards. It was at Lakefield that Tony first became interested in the gentlemanly art of sailing, a sport which he still constantly defends against the biting comments of football and hockey players. Tony joined the system at Royal Roads in the fall of 1962, During his Recruit Year he monopolized the academic awards, winning the Lieutenant-Governor's Medal and adding to his already impressive collection of books. His second year was a repeat performance on the academic front. Moreover, he was equally successful militarily finishing his period at Roads as CWC in the Honours Slate. The fact that Tony had no trouble in adapting to R.M.C. is attested to by the fact that he won the P. F. Fisher Memorial Trophy for the best all-round cadet in the Third Year. He was also appointed to the position of Cadet VVing Adjutant for his Senior Year. Always one to strive for the highest, Tony chose to serve in the Infantry Corps. He unwittingly abdicated from the elite, however, by making an unfortunate choice of regiments. We all wish Tony good luck in his career in the Canadian Guardlsijc 7 Tj 7 L-, L if K vp Q I L N ii ..,. 1, f Q vm' -.... 1 1.

On October 23, 1944, a small urban city in England witnessed an event which was largely overlooked due to the general state of confusion prevailing because of the war. However, undaunted by the many leers and jeers The Nose or Hose Nosew has since been leading an irregular life. To begin with, he moved to Ottawa, the town that Charlotte made, and when he reached the age of military consent he applied for CSC Che apparently was sick of the civilian practice of co-educationl. God forgive the Army Selection Board: Clive was accepted as a cadet and sent to CMR where he immediately began what could be labelled ,a campaign for the benefit of the physically handicapped. Firstly, showing to be a well-above-average cadet,he secured the position of DXCWC in his second year. Then he went on to prove himself to be the best defensive player on the CMR Basketball team and eventually with the RMC Redmen Cto be an offensive star one must to able to see the basketb. He also participated actively in swimming, water-polo, football, wrestling, and folksinging with the 69'ers Cdevelops neck musclesb. In his fourth year at RMC he was given the rank of CSO with the appointment of CFL. Thus Clive's campaign has succeeded for he has proven that even the handicapped can make it through CSC i I- R.G 6993 FREDERICK NORMAN ALLUM London, Ont. Once upon a time, almost twenty-two years ago, the Almighty surveyed His creation, Earth. It was a utopia, but the female of the species there seemed unhappy. He decided to do something about this, and so, on August 12, 1944, in a little burg called Kitchener, was born God's gift to women: Frederick Norman fS.F.J Allum. Rick began earnestly doing His work , during his high school days at Downsview Collegiate. Upon leaving high school he decided to widen the scope of his mission and set out for Royal Roads. There, he managed to accomplish the impossible, squeezing in with his life's work two years of education, golfing and rugger. However, feeling that heid accomplished his western assignment, he decided that it was again time to change Hsceneryf' Arriving at R.M.C., he carried on his ugruelling work in the Toronto area on every available occasion, VVhile here, Rick crowded into the between-weekends period an Honours Economics and Commerce course as well as rugger, golf, rep boxing, and many inter-squadron sports. After graduation, Rick hopes to do post-grad studies in social welfare. No matter.what Rick does, however, we are sure that he will succeed, managing to squeeze it into his social life somehow. J. R. B. 6749 I ANDRE ARCHAMBAULT Ecole Secondaire le Plateau, Montreal, Que. 'Andre est me le 8 novembre 1943 at Montreal. ll se fait vite remarquer par son caratere belliqueux qui lui vaut le surnom de Ti-Coq . C'est au debut de septembre 1961 qu'il entre au College Militaire Royal de St-Jean et c'est la qu'il se realise pleinement, Des son arrivee, on remarque sa perseverance et l'interet qu'il porte at ses etudes. Rien ne lui fait peur et bientet le succes lui sourit. En venant a R.M.C., il choisit le fameux genie electrique et tres tent, se hisse a la tete de sa classe. D'un esprit tres loyal, il se merite les plus hautes positions dans les cadres des colleges militaires. Il excelle a l'escrime qu'il considere comme un sport unable . C'est durant son premier entrainement d'ete dans liaviation qu'il rencontre Jocelyne, Savait-il que cette rencontre allait le conduire au mariageP Touiours est-il que la ceremonie aura lieu peu apres lacollation des diplomes. S'il y met autant d'ardeur qu'a ses etudes, il sera bientot entoure d'une belle famille canadienne, tout en continuant a se documenter sur l'histoire des civilisations. A Andre qui a conquis le respect de tous, nous souhaitons bonne chance. P J. . 6476 SERGE ARPIN Fabreville, P.Q. Le 10 iuin 1942, naissait Serge. CQue voulez-vous, les ealculatrices electroniques n'exis- taient pas alors.J Il commenga sa carriere academique au Jardin de l'Enfance de Rigaud, pour aboutir a l'ecole secondaire Villemaire, apres avoir visite une bonne douzaine d'ecoles de toutes sortes. Depuis treize ans qu'il etait cadet de l'air ou il a meme atteint le grade de sous-officier brevete de 2e classe, Serge revait d'appartenir un jour a cette grande ecole de formation qu'etait alors CMR. Enfin, au mois de septembre 1960, il y arrivait. Accueilli aimablement comme le veut la tradition, il aborda avec ardeur, quoiqu'un peu fatigue, l'annee preparatoire, Malgre tout il y survecut et si bien qu'il se merita le poste de DCFL en deuxieme annee. Grand amateur d'aviation, Serge gagna ses ailes de pilote prive pendant sa carriere de cadet de l'air et en fut tellement enthousiasme qu'il poursuit maintenant son entrainement de pilote dans IIARC. Malgre sa formation militaire et son caractere scientifique, Serge a tout de meme garde un gout pour les belles choses: musique semi-classique, Claudette, musique semi-populaire, Claudette, Ruth, et combien d'autres dont on ne se souvient plus. 6955 JOHN ARTHUR HAROLD BAILEY Toronto, Ont. John was born in Toronto, September 27, 1943. After graduating from Oakwood Col- legiate Institute he went to Royal Roads, where in his senior year, he served time as the Cadet Wing Band Master, playing a cool trumpet. John spent his third year at R.M.C. in the Stone Frigate Military Academy, but, as he shone in squadron football and hockey, he was brought up by 3 Squadron for his final year. During his years as a cadet, JAH served well as rep Soccer Manager, both at Royal Roads and at R,M.C. He therefore qualifies as one of the few true no-glory athletes. John, who graduates in General Science, is in the infantry, namely, in the R22eR fthe Van Doos J where he can improve his hobby - speaking French. VVe wish our pleasant Beetle', the best of luck in his future career. J. R. B. 6958 JOHN RUSSELL BARKER Sudbury, Ont. John was born and raised in the wilds of Northern Ontario atla place called Sudbury. On graduation from high school, he looked around and then decided to give military life a try. Therefore, he thereupon applied for and was sent to Royal Roads in beautiful Victoria- by-the-Sea. N'Vhile there, he served in many capacities and, along the way, picked off the unexplainable nickname Sark . After two years of this life, he decided on a change of scenery and came to R.M,C., being sent into exile in the SFMA, where he served his squadron as a soccer and hockey player. Nevertheless, he didn't forget his fellow cadets, for during his stay here he has been leader of the O.C.U., a Sunday School teacher, and a member of the Chess Club. Sark , a student of Politics and Economics, is in the RCOC, but, at this time, he is awaiting a decision from the authorities to enable him to study theology at Queen's for the next three years and then enter the Chaplaincy. Whether it be as an RCOC officer or as a Chaplain, we wish Sark the best, knowing that he will do well in whatever career he may choose. J,A,H,B, 6960 THOMAS GEORGE BEALE Regina, Sask. Young Thom was born in Halifax, October 25, 1944. From the very day he was born he had a yearning to go to Royal Roads, and so, at the ripe old age of nine months, he set out for the West. Except for a brief sixteen-year stop in Regina, 'LTom Chucker travelled straight to the Castle, At Roads The Rook excelled in rugger, playing on the First XV, and in hockey, being a member of the rep squad. He brought his swiftness of foot and booming slapshot to R.M.C. and was a natural as the right-winger on the famous Rook Line of the Inter- mediate Hockey Team. In his final year he was unfortunately sidelined because the inability of the college to find a hockey sock big enough to harness the Golden Knee . However, he took misfortune in stride and tried to build the rest of his body to match his over-sized knee. In the process he became founder and president of a select group known as the f'Tattoo Weight Chuckersn. T.G. will always be remembered for such things as shark-skinned shoes, chemical engineering, and certain amusing but unmentionable incidents. A hopeless - I mean hopeful- naval pilot, Tom will undoubtedly be a success. The class of '66 Cbe they Navy, Army or Air Forcel sincerely wish you all the best in future years, George Chuck , P M. .W. 6795 JEAN GILLES f'VlNCE BELLEGARDE Hyacinthe, P.Q. Vince est ne le 24 novembre 1943 a St.Hyacinthe. Sa premiere nuit, dit-on fut penible et arrosee d'un deluge de larmes. Tous se demandaient quelle etait la raison de cette peine. On ne l'apprit que plus tard. Vince voulait une paire de skis. ll n'a pas change. Auiourd'hui encore, c'est l'amateur de ski le plus mordu qui soit. Pour ce qui est des sports pratiques au College, c'est la natation et le soccer qu'il prefere. Vince est tacilement impressionable. Le prepose au recrutement pour l'Aviation qui lui brossa un charmant tableau de la vie militaire n'eut pas de mal a l'enregimenter. On le re- trouva done ei St-Jean au mois de septembre '61. ll y perdit vite ses illusions. Accule au mur, il en prit son parti et se mit au travail. Son desir de reussir n'a pas flechi depuis. Une personnalite ioviale et amicale lui attire tout de suite amis et amies. Vince a su se faire connaitre et apprecier dans tous les domaines, car il se donne tout entier a tout ce qu'il entreprend. Au terme de son cours en genie civil, il reioindra le corpsgdes ingenieurs de l'Aviation pour la duree de son service et peut-etre y restera-t-il. Nous lui souhaitons bonne chance et beaucoup de succes. M.C. 6961 JAMES JOHN BENDER Gananoque, Ont. J,J.'l got to Royal Roads in 1962, and for the next two years was noted for his ability to stay out of trouble while at the same time becoming famous for engineering many sky- larks. In fact, he was really too famous, being blamed whenever a skylark was pulled off, whether he did it or not. At RMC, they though they had the answer to J.J., they sent him to the Frigate. In his fourth year, J.J. retaliated by becoming the Frigate's CSTO. Throughout his four years in the system, Jim has often been involved in class activities. In second year, he was President of the Senior's Gunroom, and in his fourth year, Vice- President of the Senior Term Mess. His ability to get along with people yet get the job done has made him both popular and effective in these positions. A man of strong opinions, Jim has never been afraid to stand up and say exactly what he thinks, nor has he ever hesitated to act in accordance with his beliefs. This has not endeared him to various people, but Jim has never sought to curry favour from anyone, Jim goes to the Signals Corps, and it seems obvious that he will do as good a job there as he has at CSC.

M. 6965 JAMES RICHARD BIRD Atikokan, Ont. jim, more commonly known as VVazo , entered the world on May 8, 1943 in Victoria, B.C. After spending most of his earlier days in several picturesque northern Ontario towns, the Waz found himself, in September 1962, travelling to Royal Roads and a career in the RCAF. At Roads jim was a prominent participant in all sports, being especially successful with the rep Soccer Team. His witty, often cynical, sense of humour, plus his tours as P.O,D., will be remembered by all of us for years to come. After a memorable summer at Moose jaw, the VVaz arrived at RMC, where he again enjoyed great success in all phases of athletics - not to mention the other activities he pursued. He was a member of the group which decided to shun the drabness of countless formulae for a closer look at Keynes and fellow economists. As a result of his hard work, he earned the position of C.S.C. this year, much to the horror of the first three years. We know your future will be bright, Waz, and we wish you the best of luck in- your endeavours. W!! Kelly joined the Borrowman clan on 26 February, 1944. From the very beginning he was . firmly attached to the clan which was at that time settled in Winnipeg, and followed it in an eastward trek that came to rest just short of Montreal-in Pointe Claire. By this time the clan had gained additional members and stood at seven: Matriarch, Patriarch, and five sons. Under the stern guidance of the Matriarch and Patriarch, Kelly was trained early in the gentle arts of bridge and wrestling. Day by day Kelly waxed bigger and stronger and one day he decided that it was time to set out on the great adventure of life. He joined the navy . . . I His first ship was HMCS Cartier of the CMR Squadron in St. jean, where he emerged from obilvion for numerous feats: he could tell the world's worst jokes without even trying, he could swim four hundred yards without even stoppingg he could save money, In the summers he travelled the surface of the earth fVVillhemshaven to VVaikiki on 5516 a week!! Bon voyage, Kelly and Penny. A 6963 RONALD ALBERT BERGERON Cornwall, Ontario Ron started his army career at Royal Roads, a long way from his hometown of Corn- wall. uSauf , as he is still called by many of his Roadent buddies, has always been an avid sports enthusiast. A few of the sports in which he has led teams to success are soccer, squash, wrestling, rugger and volleyball. An ardent hunter. Ron has enjoyed many weekends in the wilds as his tale-telling testifies. Yet in spite of his great love for sports and his enjoyment of sky- larks fthe most memorable of many he took part in being the permanent removal of the Isley monument at Roadsk, Ron has kept up in his choice to enter RCEME he will graduate as an electrical engineer. Ron's other big interest is in Ottawa. Many of the Bell's lines have been kept humming between RMC and St. Pat's. Ron's magnetic personality, fine sense of humour and many friends will ensure success in whatever he finally settles down to. We wish him all the best in the years to come. J- .I- F. N. A, 6824 DANIEL BOON Hemmingford, P.Q. On July 20, 1944, a babe was born in a log cabin and was given the appropriate name of Daniel Boon. Dan was born and bred a country boy, consequently he came to CMR as a fine upstanding youth with no vices. At CMR he soon discovered the fun one could have from life, and proceeded to make up for lost time. Dan's hobbies at RMC were making long-distance phone calls, writing poetry, and painting halls with selectone. ln sports Dan was one of the reliables on squadron teams, and in his Senior year he tried his arm at throwing the javelin for the College track team. After suffering through the first two years of CMR academics Dan joined the ranks of the Artsmen. NVith the change in courses came a change in Corps. Not wishing to leave Kingston, where he had trained with RCEME, he switched to the RC Sigs. To wish Dan luck is unnecessary, for with good luck or bad luck Dan will float through life seeking a peaceful and literary existence, XV.B.M. KELLY ALLEN BORROVVMAN Pointe Claire, P.Q. C.

Al was born in Souris, Manitoba on August 16, 1944, and for the next eighteen years followed his father's Air Force career quite closely, spending most of his time in Ottawa. Intrigued by the life he completed a busy and productive stint in high school and then gave his best to RMC. Here, he promptly joined the Match Rifle Team, becoming one of its top shots. At the same time he pursued a deep interest in music by joining the Pipes and Drums as a piper, climaving this career by becoming Pipe Major. It is also suspected that he keeps a clarinet in his room-perhaps to ward off snakes. Al is combining a course in Mathematics and Physics with an enduring friendship with the computer C ole 1620 D. As a result, the RCAE will gain an enterprising and promising Telecommunications Officer One of Al's ambitions, by the way, is to compose a symphony using a computer.

H. 697i Upper R05tl1f3fn, Sagk, ' Lloyd was born in St. Thomas, Ontario, but left very shortly thereafter for the sunnier elimes of Upper Rosthern Saskatchewan. Learning to skate before he could walk, 'Zed' wielded a hockey stick for the local teams for many years, and was finally rewarded for his efforts with a Robin Hood Oats Trophy. Having heard of the internationally famous Royal Roads hockey team, our hero left for Victoria, where he led the hockey team, Fraser Flight, and the Calculus class lin that order.D Despite his enthusiasm for Mechanics, Lloyd made the big move to General Science early in his Second Year. Lloyd was an even greater success at RMC, where for two years he helped the senior Redmen to glory in Hockey, culminating his career with two goals in the 1966 lVest Point Game. He also carried two bars around on room inspections while pulling down some rather impressive marks. Lloyd has established some firsts at RMC - he was the first twenty-one year old to get the boot from the Manor, and he was the first President of the Leroy van Dyke Fan Club to occupy Fort Champlain. As one of the unsung heroes of the RCAE, a Tech!AE officer and the proud owner of a new Mustang, Lloyd evidently plans making the best of both worlds, and with his good nature, and determination, he can't miss. Bonne chance, Lloyd. R.G.W.E. 6844 JEREMY BRUFORD BUTLER Victoria, B.C. jerry was born in Brighton, England on the 16th of December, 1943. He spent his early days greying the hairs of his English schoolmasters. Realizing as the years went by, that this little island would not be big enough for him, he consulted his charts and set sail for North America. He settled in the small town of Oliver, B.C., and quickly learned the ways of the natives. ln 1961, jerry joined the Navy and was sent to CMR, where he began his transformation into an Officer and a Gentleman. At RMC he took up Chemical Engineering and achieved excellent results. Sailing is jerry's favourite sport and he was on the rep team while at RMC. During his summers with the Navy on the XVest Coast, jerry managed to combine tidal problems with bear hunting. Even during his blaekest hours, jerry can be heard whistling a few bars of his favourite tune, XVhen Irish Eyes Are Smiling. VVith his quick wit and ready smile, we are certain that he will have a most successful future. Best of Luck, jerry P.F. 6804 ALEXANDER CAMPBELL CALDER Fergus, Ont. Alex might be considered a southerner for he was born in Buenos Aires, in May, 1944, where he lived for eight years. That 'fcountry boy air is not a deception, however, for the rest of his school years were spent on a small farm on the Grand River, near Fergus Ont. Often he returns to that small farm, in fact, that is where he was the last time we failed to break through his reveries. During those years he distinquished himself in fields other than agrariarnln school he reached great heights in academics and in gymnastics. He also developed an overawing Schroeder complex with his little piano defending Beethoven in the process of reaching tenth grade with the Royal Conservatory of music in Toronto. Early in 1961, Alex washed his muddy hands in salt water to become a naval officer- cadet at CMR. During his years at CSC where French replaced Spanish as his second tongue, the recreation departments at CMR and RMC benefitted from his outstanding ability to organize. History became his maior COttawa his VVaterlooJ and the joys of the Nordic skiC?J were revealed to him not to mention the ioys of the obscure, no-glory athlete. 6753 ALBERT D. CALL MHIHYFIC, P-Q.

V.F. G.M. 6896 IAN ROBERT CAMERON Kingston, Ont. Ian arrived at R.M.C. in September, 1962, by a rather eircuitous route. Born in foggy London on April 11, 1943, he promptly set out to explore the world. Passing through Canada, he stopped at such exotic places as Fort Churchill, Calgary, Ottawa, and Camp Borden, before returning once more to Europe, where he did stints in Germany, London again, Switzerland fwhere he got his Senior Matriculationl, and Gay Pareef' When his father came to Kingston in january, 1962, Ian followed shortly and settled at R.M.C. A natural Rifleman , Ian has been a stalwart of the Match Rifle Team for the last four years. Between such taxing occupations as playing softball, lacrosse, his Hi-Fi set, and lounging around the range, Ian has found time to take Electrical Engineering, from which he will graduate with a degree this spring. After this goal has been attained, Ian will return once more for a few months to the sandy stretches of Camp Borden, where he has amused himself the past two summers. This time, he will be sporting a colourful Infantry outfit. From there he will be going abroad again, probably to the beautiful Isle of Cyprus. We wish you every success in the future, Ian. 6972 BRIAN HOYT CAMPBELL Calgary, Alta. Born in Sarnia on December, 1944, young Brian went west to Calgary in 1950, Where he became a sensation in the 'LStampede a-go-go. BH found immediate popularity with the high-school set at VVestern Canada High, where he distinguished himself in many sports as well as academics. At Roads, Brian found a sport to suit his height and spread - soccer. He also found time to put the blades on for the 'lphantomv hockey squad. Always a happy-go-lucky type, Brian found that he had to contain his eccentrieities when he received the appointment of CSL. Having created much static in his brilliant young life, BH found that Electrical Engin- eering would best suit his capacities, and with his studies well tucked away, he put on a determined effort to take the uwatusi crown from Barry Go-Go Morris, the sweetheart of the Cadet Yless Pep ermint Ioun e In the last fexx months however, this dynamic PCI'- sonality has been the plfoperty of a Sretty and also dynamic feimale. VVith two years of RMC soccer and an Engineering degree, Brian promises to be as big an asset to the RC Sigs as he has been to RMC. Many in the class of '66 will be sad to leave him behind in Kingston, but BH seems to have found the proper environment and we ' 'e be ' e May wish him all the best in the future. ' G. W.

His local knowledge was very useful to other cadets in such matters as getting dates and organizing parties. He ioined the Service College system at RMC, where he drove the body for 4 Squadron for three years. He played goalie in squadron lacrosse and earned a reputation as one of the ablest members of the rifle team. He won an ''outstanding-athlete award for his ability with the match rifle. On the academic side, Dave qualifies as Honours General Science, he got very good marks in his fourth year. Dave is in the Air Force, where he will be training as a pilot next summer. Having a background in the Air Cadets, a private flying-license, and armament training, he is looking forward to flying either the CF-5 or with United Airlines. No matter what course he chooses, Dave's easy-going personality and determination will lead to success. W- P- M- ,A f is 1 sg 6760 jACQUlrfS l.. R. CARRIICR Mont joli, P.Q.

He disliked the place at first sight and within three months he had per- suaded his parents to move. The fact that his father is in the Air Force has kept him on the move ever since. His ambition to enter CSC was realized in September, 1962, when the government grac- iously bade him welcome to that garden estate named Royal Roads. Two years later, Ken came to RMC with the intention of becoming an electrical engineer and eventually an arma- ment officer. His quick perception prevented him from making a fatal mistake and he switched to Mechanical where through hard work and determination, he made the top ten of his class. But, in spite of the heavy academic load, he supported his squadron in water-polo, volleyball, and basketball, while favouring the choir with the deep tones of his bass voice. His ambition is to see more of the world. He made a good start in this direction by spending the last summer in Europe, and with his determination and capacity for hard work, he is sure to go far.

Besides his regular course in cross- country running and Pit Zi, Chix found time for a bit of extra-curricular academics. Since his favourite course at Roads was Physics 25, jamie, upon arrival at R.M.C. naturally chose to take Honours French.

Gerry's life seems to be directed toward the achievement of a universal education. winter water-polo games. Under close examination Mike would probably deny that he was a super-star in atheltics, whach is perfectly true. He is, however, what Chief Pitt's 'torture team' is striving to produce: An above-average athlete with a will to win, Cor, as we like to think of him, an above average thirst with a will to wet itselfl. Besides doing well at the College, he has succeeded with the RCN. On his second year cruise to Hawaii Mike was the Cadet Captain of St. Therese. His third summer saw him fighting his way up the coast of Nova Scotia and Cape Breton Island in a 'bird' boat and then down to Bermuda aborad HMCS Nipigon. This year he picked up three bars as DXCSI. of 'Tree' Squadron and again has performed well. No problems M.D. Although his first experience was obtained in Moncton, N.B., in September 1944, he has since been finding life gradually brighter with the discovery of IVinnipcg, Victoria and sunny Kingston. This young man has not, however, limited his education to a cross-Canada tour, he has also had a taste of the English educational system, one of the inherent benefits of having an Air Force father. A built-in interest in the RCAF, plus some masochistic tendencies Cnot related to sexl, induced Gerry to obtain his college education in the Canadian Services Colleges as a stepping stone to a life in the Air Force. Thus, our hero left the bald prairies for the wooded slopes of Royal Roads. Two years of this environment proved sufficient, and he suddenly appeared at the door of R.M.C., the same door that will release him with a degree in Mechanical En- gineering and a commission in the RCAI7 f plus enough money to pay for his new Mustang. The class of '66 wishes Gerry the best of luck as either an aeronautical-engineering officer or as a money-earning civilian. D. D. S. Their Merit.

Little did his parents realize that he would rise to the peerage of cadethood and a commission as a navigator in As a young brave, Seymour travelled the circuits - service route - covering Canada K! wwe' from the East Coast to Ontario, where he now makes his home. After thrashing through romance and books, Seymour took the plunge and entered ROTP via Royal Roads, where he distinguished himself in academics and military. He returned home - to the confining walls of RMC after the regular two-year tour, choosing to enter Chemical Engineering and 'bottling' at RMC. In the fourth year, he ran an efficient section as CSC, whilst managing to while away many a pleasant hour with his future wife. He also managed time to lead his squadron to victory in volleyball and basketball. Good luck in the future, Seymour, but be careful or you may not be able to afford the married state.

Bob's interests are Mhunting and fishing and movie photography. He has even been known to show interest in ubird watching . Since coming to RMC, Bob has spent much time furthering the science of civil engineering up at the stables , where he will surely be long remembered. After graduation, he will try to see, in his travels with the RCN, those parts of the world that have so far eluded him.

As if Portsmouth didn't have enough problems to worry about in 1943, all of a sudden wee Gordie appeared on the scene. However, the city fathers solved the problem by banishing young Gord to Victoria, B.C. Finding the climate there much more favourable, he decided to stick around to ioin HMCS Veizfmfe, where he stayed until, awed by the prospect of sea duty, he transferred to the comparative ease of Royal Roads. At Roads Gord was in his element. His charming manner and blond hair kept the Oak Bay Underground in a flap, while his athletic ability and drive made him a two-year standout for the first XV. The higher powers recognized his potential and played L'Father to Frazer Flight for the First and the Honour Slates. Coming East, Gord 'Lsaw the light and switched to Honours Economics and Com- merce, while continuing his successful ways with the girls CVVhat's new Pussycat?D, finding time for sports as well: rugger, water-polo, and swimming.

K. 6854 JOSEPH ADELARD RAYMOND DESLOGES Ottawa, Ont Born and raised in the fair city of Ottawa, Ray set out to seek his fortune on the distant shores of the Richelieu River. He found himself in that institution of higher learning and military distinction known as Le College Militaire Royal de St.-Jean. Since that day in 1961. Ray has combined academic excellence and an amiable, easy-going personality to full advantage. Since his arrival at RMC, he has been an active participant in all activities, demonstrating his insatiable petite for the finer things of life at Queen's and KGH. His dogged efforts on the lacrosse field, the volleyball courts, and in the swimming pool, have kept him in the physical condition necessary to pursuing his more stimulating nocturnal adventures. Despite his never-ending search for new experiences, Ray has constantly earned top marks in his Mechanical Engineering course. His academic aspirations include a masters degree at MIT and perhaps eventually an M.B.A., undoubtedly on a top scholarship. Ray remains a credit to the RCAF and as a TechfAe Officer leaves nothing to be desired.

He came to Canada in 1961 for the express purpose of joining the Navy, his main interest being submarines, he is hoping that the navy will give him submarine service after graduation and completion of pre-fleet training. XVhat does j. P. do to keep busy? Well, how about the slim, white piece of wood with the cork handle at one end? Any Seniors who made it to church this year surely remember that. josh, by gosh, iust as he was at Royal Roads, was our choir director, CWCMCP7. Speaking of Roads, do I have to say it? Duty Bugliwg, lest we forget!! But that is a story in itself, isn't it? As for academics, josh is an artsman in Politics and Economics. His free time is spent with the Glee Club, fencing, O.C.U., all of which keep him busy, to say nothing of the continued tradition of Duty Bugling. How does the old saying go?

P, D, S, 690+ IIOHN GARVIN EASSON Ottawa, Ont. lf nothing else, john will be remembered at R..ll.C. for his striking resemblance to Hugh Hefner - if it is possible to imagine Hugh Hefner playing floor hockey. After many an hour of camp reflections on his five years in the blackboard iungles of the Ottawa School system, he selected R.M.C. as the best place to fully realize his talents. Driving the body through three hard years of Mechanical Fngineering, john finally managed to reach fourth year, when he was really able to display his talents, after all, not many cadets have the ability to reproduce from memory the entirety of a monopoly board! Undecided yet as to his long-range plans, which run from First Phase Troop Leader at the RCAC School, to Australian surfboard instructor, john will nevertheless put a froth on any obstacle in his path. Rewarded by R.Al.C. for his efforts with the position of CSTO of -1 Squadron, and by the Armoured Corps with a military proficiency badge and a three- year, ail-expense-paid, vacation in liurope, john hopes to climax his totally successful efforts by capturing some little Heidi who must be already breathless with anticipation. No matter what he does,'lFess' is, and will continue to be a winner and we wish him the best of luck for many years to come. D,j,S, 6986 ROBERT GEORGE YVAYNIQ ICBIQRLIC Fort Qu Appelle, Sask Bob was born in 19-H in the Saskatchewan town of Fort Qu'Appelle, Saskatchewan. He will readily inform anyone who has never heard of the place that it is the tourist capital of Canada. At the tender age of seventeen years, Bob saw the film On Their Merit and was soon on his way to Royal Roads. During his two years there his numerous pranks kept the whole lVing wondering what was coming next. Upon his arrival at R.Nl.C., Bob entered the Chemical lingineering field, where he has shown a remarkable ability to write strange computer programs. On the athletic side, Bob has been active in squadron football and '1starred in the B hockey league. Zeb had the good fortune of being stationed,in Germany for his third summer of training. VVhile there, he soaked up knowledge of the Armament branch and also did a lot of touring, one of the most memorable trips being to London, England. Best of luck in the future, Bob! 6987 ERNEST RONALD ICLSON Calgary, Alta. Young Ronald spent his first two years at Royal Roads learning how to play rugby and how to get along with girls: we know how well he can play rugby, but are still DUI sure about the other activity. In fact, so uncertain were we, that we have been coaching the youngster, naturally, with such friendly advice, he has come along fine. For most of this third and fourth years, Ron spent his spare hours in London-an excessive distance to travel in our eyes. Still, the grip is firm and all we can do is to wish him the best of luck in marriage. At least it may now be said that Ron has a life-time membership in the Tatoo lfVeight Chuckers Society. As Ron couldiit get in the Navy, he did the next best thing and became an E.S.O. in the Air Force. lVe shall all sleep better knowing that Ron is flying, keeping our country safe from aggression. joking aside, best of luck Ron in both your careers.

In his younger days Terry was famous for his achievements as a member of both the Renfrew Collegiate and the Canadian Bisley Rifle Teams. Today you can still see him trudging over to the range to shoot another top target as a member of the R.lVl.C. Pistol Team. Being born in the wilds of Renfrew country and raised on a farm, Terry naturally took to hunting and fishing. Maybe he learned something from the French-Canadian girls during the three years he attended C.M.R. To round out his athletic program, he plays hockey and football. Terry is a member of RCEME and as such has spent most of his summers in Kingston, acquiring a great fondness for this beautiful city. Obviously the desert plains of Borden, where lie spent one summer, didn't capture his heart. E.C.H. 6988 1 LESLEY ALEXANDER ESLARY Hamilton, Ont. Les is the sort of person you meet in the back row of Physics class at Royal Roads, whipping off cartoons of such selected higher authority as Starf, Big jake, and Hickey- louse. He put in an impressive number of hours in the Senior Gunroom, while still managing to come first in the Arts Class. Third Year at R.M.C. saw Les doing quite well in the Honours History course. This is not surprising to anyone who has ever had the awe-inspiring experience of watching him during one of his marathon essay-writing sessions the night before deadline. ln sports Les chopped up the turf with his squadron football team in the fall term, then spent the winter peering down the wavering sights of his Rep pistol. Les came back to R.M.C. for his final year determined to lead the relaxing life of the professional Senior Cadet. Something went wrong about Christmas, however, when the Commandant put two bars on his collar. Les isn't quite sure what use they'll find in the RCR for a professional historian, but, since that's where he is headed, he hopes they'll come up with something. D.A.H. 6905 IAN ERNEST FALLIL Toronto, Ont. lan was born in Hamilton, Ontario on April Z, 1943. After getting the preliminaries out of the way, he decided that the Air Force was the only life and that the only way to start it was at R.M.C. Ian is one of our staunchest militarists, just look at those boots! Since his arrival, he has applied himself diligently to his studies but his devotion to the sports program has prevented him from attaining the ultimate peak of academic perfection In his first year he was a member of both the rep Boxing and the Volleyball Teams. On those rare occasions when he was not studying or engaged in some strenuous athletic activity. One of 1an's greatest achievements began quite innocently in a PT class where he came from behind as a dark horse to prove himself one of the truly great Mechanical Engineers. Ian's first summer with the Air Force saw the beginning of his flying career. After the repeated insistence of his good friend Ralph, however, Ian came to realize that he would be of far greater value in a more stable position. We wish you the very best of luck, lan, in all your future endeavours. R.E.W. 6907 WILLIAM JOHN FENRICK TOFOHIU, Um- Bill is our college expert on Canadian history and has been heard in moments of profound reverie to mutter comments about his flag , whatever that may mean. Born in Toronto, on October 26, 1943, he is the wayward son of an electrical engineer, who, wounded by his boy's interest in Arts, is rumoured to have banished him from home. This event permitted Bill to pursue his first love, the Navy, an interest kept alive by years of service in the Sea Cadets. His RCN career proper began in the Stone F rigate, where for three years he piloted his desk lamp from a cabin overlooking stormy Lake Ontario. Then came catastrophe. Bill was moved into Fort LaSalle and assigned a room overlooking the parade square. Some say that he has never quite recovered from this disillusioning experience. Being a staunch intellectual, Bill can rarely be found at the Arts table. He can usually be found in his room, fussily smoking his pipe and savouring his own peculiar brand of tobacco-matches. There is not doubt that Bill will prove eminently successful in his hoped-for postgraduate course of studies, to become one of Canada's assets in the field of current history.

Having been born in Ottawa, Terry decided that Royal Roads was the place to go. His first year there was spent playing Znd XV Rugger and crying a lot. He also managed to keep the junior Year Gunroom money in some sort of order. The summer found him at Centralia flitting about the skies in the Chippie. Returning to Roads, he served as CSA 2 Squadron and finally as CFL Mackenzie Flight, while also playing lst XV Rugger and acting as Business Manager of the Log. On going to R.M.C., he found himself on the far side of the square in Spider Hall. He played end on the Senior Football Team and put his talents for looking after money to use again as Treasurer for the Third Year. v He spent his third summer doing contract training at Uplands, going on domestic flights to the U.S., Goose Bay, etc. In his final year, Findles was again on the Senior Football Team, this time as a rough, tough centre. He was one of the elite XVing Tigers as CSSO of One Squadron and was also Grad Committee Chairman. His future looks as bright as his past and he joins the ranks of the SHP's at VVinnipeg and Moose jaw this summer-after marrying up with his Sharon. Good luck, Chief. j,R,P, settled in Montreal, where he graduated from high school four years later. Acting on the advice of a friend, he joined the Navy and entered CMR, knowing very little of either. Oddly enough, his friend seems to get out of town every time Filty goes home on leave. At R.M.C. Filty has become prominent in card-playing, pitting, rep-managing, collecting books from the library, guitar-playing and singing Cas yet a skill he has not perfected? He also manages to squeeze in a few history courses on the side. During the past year, his On the athletic side, Filty has made the odd appearance with the rep Ski and Swimming Teams and has led his squadron to many victories in such sports as gymnastics, wrestling, Whether it be managing Glee Clubs, organizing gymnastic meets, scrounging rides to Quebec, Fxlt can always be counted upon for his maximum effort, which we are sure will An Air Force Brat, Scott spent his younger days wandering over the face of the Qtr O'n une 1, 1944, a tired stork finally located Birnic, Manitoba and presented the Gibbons family with their first man-child, whom they called Glen.

One of his trips took him to England. Normally, this would be of little consequence, except that this is where he learned to say, Well, I gotta e-mit! At those words, strong men shudder, for they know that j. Scott has been visibly impressed, more than likely by a Shadow or a Rolling Stone. It also means that Scott will more than likely be trying to emulate these heroes, too, for his musical exploits are legendary. He is, in fact, the leader of that Mother College band, the fabulous Ascots. Interest in musical sounds led Scott to interests in other sounds-the electrical type. Hard work has ensured that he will leave the College with a very respectable record in academics, the same hard work meant two bars in the annual scramble. Socially, Scott's name is a password to the finer things in life-like imitations, to which his facial muscle control and readily adaptable voice are well suited. Good luck with navi ation Scott -we're sure ou'll manage to et back to Ottawa, g Y Y g but beyond that .... R.G.W.E. GILLES E. GIRARD Arvida, P.Q. , Delburne, Alta. jim is another of the few cadets who are fortunate enough to hail from the prairies. The town of Delburne, Alberta, is his home and from this background he has inherited the spirit and drive that have helped him in his conquest of CSC. Throughout the past four years he has proven himself an excellent athlete, excelling in such sports as harriers, football, rugger and boxing, as well as in many intermural activities. jim has a cheerful and likeable personality coupled with a keen sense of humour, he has made many friendships and he is bound to go places in the future, be it in the Armed Forces or on civy street . Being an Electrical Engineer, making money should never be a problem. jim has also managed to make good marks, considering his rather heavy course. This success is attributable to two reasons: first he is a determined student and, secondly, he goes on leave a lot. Upon graduating, jim is hoping to become a jet-iockey . However, before flying, he will be hearing the sounds of wedding bells back in Victoria. The very best of luck to jim and Gerry in the future. T.G.S. 6994 jAMES ALBERT GODFREY 6996 RICHARD ALLEN GREEN St. Bruno, PQ- Rich, who has always had a bent for things mechanical, quite naturally found himself in the RCEME and taking a course in Mechanical Iingineering at R.M.C. Like many of his classmates, Rich has never gone in for rep sports, he. has, however, always been a strong campaigner in the intramural program, especially in soccer and hockey. He is also quite a ski enthusiast and has become fairly proficient as a result'of two years of college recreational activity. In the evenings he can usually be foundhplaying chess, enioying a good cup of coffee, sleeping, or even, at times, studying. .Academics have never worried Rich, even though hc has been beset with some tricky situations in lllS'CSC career. In his first year at Roads, he managed to weather a tremendous barrage of circles and days of punishment with apparently few ill effects. Rich refuses to be tied down in any way and it could be for this reason that he has never been out with any one girl for more than a half-dozen times. After all, a man can't drive an MG-B and have a family too, can he Rich? N.E.F. 6997 NIGEL EDVVARD FREDERICK GRIFFIN Ottawa, Ont. Nigel studies Economics and Politics, fences, is an infantryman, favours few fair young things with more than one date, skis, has bought a sports car, and has rarely found it neces- sary to refer to his texts on Machiavelli. Barely escaping the academic perils of those nasty first-year science courses, Nige Settled into the envied, exclusive life of The Septic Seven in his second year at Roads. Since then, he has achieved a measure of academic success, apparently assisted by machlne- like study habits. Unproven rumours have it that this drive is no more than a deliberately assumed appearance-a typical Griffinian ploy. He has also shown great delight in ousting would-be students from their pits at atrocious hours of their own choosing. Although Nige's weight and ability had been valuable to Champlain Flight at Roads, he largely abandoned intra-mural sports for the ioys of rep fencing when he arrived at R.M.C. He also ioined the College singing circles in his final year, adding his voice to the Protestant Choir and the Glee Club. The future will probably find Nige successfully applying his cool, well-calculated approach as an Army officer, and later, perhaps, as an economist in the Civil Service.

It has been quite evident to all who knew him, even from the moment of his birth ijune 16, 1943, in Prince Rupert, British Columbia,J that Denny is a dynamic personality full of vim, vigour, and vitality. Thus it comes as no surprise that, after spending a year at the University of Victoria, he decided to cross his Rubicon and enter the hallowed halls of Royal Roads. During his two-year sojourn at Roads, Denny distinguished himself on the rugby field, playing both years with the First Fifteen, and in his second year, landing a berth on the Victoria All-Star Team. lVhen he arrived at R..XI.C., Denny said goodbye to General Engin- eering and joined the ranks of the Sand-Box-Piumb-bob Boys. A few months later, when our hero discovered snow in Ontario, he appropriately acquired a pair of army boots and some rickety barrel staves, and in order to avoid Saturday morning parades, became an avid skier. lVhen there was no snow, Denny has always been a staunch supporter of his squadron and his many athletic land other? talents were greatly appreciated by his fellow spider-lovers. Moreover, his activities as President of the Scuba Diving Club are now renowned throughout Naval circles. R.j.A.G. 6999 RANDOLPH JACK AUSTIN GYNN Toronto, Ont. Randy, after graduating from Richview Collegiate in Toronto, decided to enter Royal Roads. After two months at the college, he was convinced that this was the worst choice he had ever made in his life. However, after joining the rep water-polo, swimming, squash, and bowling teams, he decided that maybe the system wasn't so bad after all. At the outset of his second-year spring term, he decided that the Engineers and other General Artsmen' worked much too hard. He therefore announced that he was entering an Honours French course and with his French books retired to the roof of Nixon Block to work on a suntan. During his third year, in addition to retaining his honours standing, Randy found time to participate in rep water-polo, swimming and debating. Moreover, he ioined the Glee Club, which is the singing group that doesn't meet down at the Manor House every Saturday night. His appointment to Wing Headquarters as DXCWA curtailed many of his fourth- year activities. pn D' G. -U' 6842 Born in Port Arthur on 12 june '43, Ted still lays proud claim to that city as his 7000 DAVID ANTHONY HAAS Calgary, Alta. In that gay September of 1962, Dave stumbled off the bus at palatial Royal Roads and into the inspiring web of cadet life. Carefully avoiding notoriety throughout his recruit year and communicating with the joys of nature abounding in Victoria, this Calgarian soon came into his own as the champion of the 'LVegetables. Arriving at R.M.C., Dave continued to keep a sharp pen thrusting at the idiosyncracies of military life as he showered biting satire and excellent cartoons upon the Marker. While compiling a respectable academic record in his third year, Dave also found time to express himself on the rep football field, on the debating floor, and on the ceiling of the pistol range. However, someone apparently saw through his facade of good natured cynicism and incompetence, for he some how ended up a C.F.L. of that wandering, lost tribe, the F rigateers, paeifying trespassers with his rep hammer. Dave is now ready to tackle army life in the PPCLI and with his rep boxing experience we are sure that he will fight his way to the top. L. A. E. EDWARD CHALMER HAGUE Port Arthur, Ont. home. Commonly known as Lump ifor good reasonsk, he proceeded to CMR in ,61 with the idea of becoming an engineer. Fate decided otherwise, however, and he will graduate with a degree in Honours Economics. Life as an artsman must agree with him, for he would like to go on and get his M.B.A. sometime in the future. Throughout his CSC career, Ted has been active in almost every phase of college life. At one time or another, he was a member of football, curling, soccer, rifle, and track and field teams. Socially, he possesses one great drawback, he doesn't like girls-MUCH! To date, his army career has been almost as varied as his CSC career. His first summer of train- ing was spent at the RCEME School. However, finding Kingston much to dull during the summer months, he became a gunner and went to Shilo. After graduation he will go to Winnipeg on his first posting. Perhaps Lumpy's upbringing in the wilderness is one of the reasons for his two favorite hobbies - hunting and fishing. All of his free weekends were spent in the quiet, secluded regions of Renfrew in pursuit of these activities. T'J'E. 6910 DOUGLAS RONALD HAMILTON Vancouver, B.C. Milt was born in Sydney, B.C., and grew up in Vancouver. His four years at the college were spent as an undercover agent for the Vancouver Bureau of Tourism and Propaganda, extolling the wonders of this fair city to all who would listen: he even went so far as to bet on the B.C. Lions in the Grey Cup. After trying a year of Eng. Phys, Hammy saw the light and stepped into that illustrious group - the Mechanical Engineers. Hard work and diligent study will see him graduate with a perfect record: no supplementals. Like any Mech Eng. his attendance at class parties was near perfect. On the military side, we also remember him as the recruit who asked his CSTO, '4May I say, does 'by the left' mean you start on your left foot? we also recall he had more circles than anyone except his room'mate-you've come a long way, Milt Cdownhill, that isb. Milt's athletic commitments were fulfilled by his being manager of the rep swimming and water polo team, as well as filling in where need in squadron sports. after graduation. Good luck, Hammy. 7001 HAROLD JOSEPH HAMILTON Elgin, Ont. Ontario born and bred, it must have come as a severe shock to Harry's system when he found himself amidst the scenic wonders of Royal Roads. So averse was he to the floral arrangements that he promptly took up that cad's game for gentlemen-rugger. IVhat few frustrations were left over, he either ran off as a member of the cross-country team. There must have been quite a few frustrations in his second year, for he was the father of that Milt has gained a lot in his four years here, and is sure to show it as an RCEME officer I D.H undisciplined flight-Champlain. At RMC, Harry chose to embark upon the Civil Engineering course, fortune or luck or work saw him successfully complete the requirements. Sports were still the main attraction, though, and Harry became renown for his swimming ability, he was still a member of the track and field and harriers teams, the latter of which he commanded in fourth year. Upon grad, Harry joins the RCE. VVe all hope he does as well there as he has done here. D.L.J.H. JAMES WILLIAM HAMPTON St. Catherines, Ont. jim must be one of the most likeable cadets at the college. From crashed airplanes to broken windows, jim has left his mark. His career at RMC has been ever jovial and fun- loving. Ugly Cas he is better known? has managed to labour his way through Mech- anical Engineering, no mean feat. A powerful set of fists and a hard head brought Ugger to boxing fame early in his career as a cadet. Blond and blue-eyed, tall and strong, his fate was inevitable. Sorry girls, hels been taken. His frequent trips to Ottawa, come rain, sleet or snow, only served to strengthen his con- victions. A genuine loss to the Bachelor's Unanimous Club. jim has ended his career as a pilot and will be spending his commitment in the Technical branch of the Air Force. VVe wish him all the best, particularly at this point in his life. From the noisy bunch in L Flight, and from everyone in the college, good luck, Ugger! 6828 DONALD ERNEST HARGEST Kingston, Ont. Don is another member of the Mustang Club this being bluel. Long associated with the military, having done a stretch in the militia and coming from an Army family, he is set on a career in the Pay Corps. This combination of serving in the Pay Corps during summer and taking Economics and Commerce the rest of the year makes Don an expert in money matters. An outstanding fencer, he has won many matches as a member of thc R.M.C. fencing team, which took the OSLAA championship this year. He did, however, manage to remain in Kingston most weekends, and his reason was not to study. The commuter between K.G.I-I. and R.M.C., he plans to bring yet another nurse into the Army community. Don is an ex-C.M.R. type, which means he came into the system five years ago. After such a long exposure to the good, old C.S.C., I'm certain he'll find it hard to leave. But when you see a streak of light blue shooting up Frontenac Avenue in May, get out of the REX CHARLES ARTHUR HARRISON Olds, Alta. way, for Don will be blasting off to a new life. W.D.M. 7003 DONALD ARTHUR HARRINGTON Regina, Sask. 6911 Don appeared on the scene on April 6, 1944. Raised in Pile-o-Bones , Sask., he gained a very considerable proficiency as a pianist and iudo enthusiast before he answered the eall to Go West, Young Man. His first military endeavour began four years ago at Royal Roads, where he was right at home. As an archery enthusiast of some note, he often wandered about the grounds like a twentieth-century Robin Hood. A water bug, Don was an asset to the Swim Team and IVater-polo Team, as well as being a top harriers man. After surviving the first year, he proceeded to prepare himself for his iron ring. Coming to RMC Land graduating! as a civil engineer, Don has been a consistant body-driverf' He made his mark as a member of the japanese Body Throwers Crep judo! and also left many notches on the chin-up bar. Through- out his final year, in No. -I Squadron, Don and his neighbours terrorized the local natives at every opportunity. Shortly after graduation, Don will be turning his many talents and cheerful disposition to the risky task of telling pilots where to go. He will be commencing his RCAF navi- gation career and is bound to be a highly successful officer. E.M.I-I. Few and far between are the prairie dogs that get to RMC, but those that do are easily spotted. Rex belongs with this esteemed group. He was born in Swift Current, Sask., and moved to Olds, Alberta early in his career. Like most westerners, Rex has divers preoccupa- tions, such as mountains and cats, photography and iudo. Even so, he found time to make out in Honours Science and to be a mainstay of the drum section in the Pipes and Drums while at the College. The Air Force was kind to Rex during his summer training, giving him a sample of Life at Centralia, then a trip to Europe and finally a quiet - very quiet - summer at Puntzi Mountain Radar Station. Of course, his response to this good treatment was to get a transfer from Tech!Tel. Officer to Navigator, and thence to the shadow occupation of an E.S.O. Rex was one of the famous new fourteen, that well-known cross-section of humanity that bulwarked the Recruit Year of 1962 in the halls of Frontenac-Haldimand. In case no one remembers, the new fourteen was an exceptionally keen collection of bods that clung together, undecimated, until the end of Second Year. XVherever we fourteen are headed now, Rex, we all wish you the best! 7004 RICHARD BYRON HINTON IVindsor, Ont. Hailing from the southernmost reaches of Canada-XX'indsor-Rick, a true lover of the tropics, felt a little out of place in Canada's northlandg but he quickly adiusted to his surroundings. Even on cold, rainy, mucky days, he was always up front with Royal Roads' First Fifteen. Having played alongside Rick in rugger, I know that his aggressive exceptional person he really is. While at RMC, Rick has had two main passions, first, his girl, and second, civil engineering. Although a keen engineer who is always near the top of his class, he manages to cast an Artisan's shadow of clear thinking and broadmindedness on all subiects. After graduation he hopes to take up the iob of Engineering Officer on one of Canada's many Air Force bases. Wfhatever the future may hold for Rick, I am sure with his drive, determination, and high spirits he will make the best of it. G,B,L, 7005 EDWARD MILTON HOEGI Turtleford, Sask. It seems that Ed, or 'lHoegi , grew tired of killing Indians, in Turtleford, so in 1962 he packed his bags and ioined the RCAF as a pilot. However, when signing his contract, he missed the clause stating that the first four years were to be spent in prison, I mean military col- lege. To ease he disappointment they sent him to Royal Roads for two of the four years of hard labour. In the transfer from R.R. to R.M.C., the records were fouled up, with the result that MI-Ioegi' ended up in Economics and Commerce instead of Science. During this two years at R.M.C. 'LI-Ioegii' has made many friends, especially with the little lead-nosed ones that can run faster than you or me. His practice in killing Indians affording ample opportunity to establish him as one of the top scorers for the match-rifle team. On the non-violence side, his pleasures were obtained from glee-club singing and making bets on when he will meet the' right girl. The best to you in the future Ed, and may you find that girl within two years. D.A.H. 6912 KElTH HOXVARD HOOEY Oshawa, Ont Keith hails from Oshawa, that happy little town 135 miles down the road to freedom. However, I believe that in 1962 he must have hailed a little too loudly for, in September of that year, Oshawa sent him to RMC. ' In his first year, Hoo had a rough time of it: CCD, an obnoxious l'00m-matt, extra drill, a fire demonstration, and more CCD. ln second year, life, was f'Rosy and he was on Yup of the world. Third year rolled around and he found his social life so demanding that he was forced to switch from Engineering Physics to .Honours Science. During his- final year at RMC, Hoo, now a CSC, was in Pass Science, after losing a battle to Piggy Math. Nevertheless, he kept up his spirits with thoughts of motorcycles and marriage, not necessarily in that order of merit. He also did a fine iob as cadet business-manager of the Revie-zu. After graduation, Keith plans a short career in the newly-formed Canadian Armed Forces as a signals officer. R.C.S. 6911 jOHN RICHARD HOSANG TVillowdale, Ont. On the 14th of january, 19-H, the population of Toronto increased by one. Ol, Hos had arrived. Many years later, and mainly because of his advertising potential at exhibitions, john made his debut at R.M.C. Nor was he long wating for recognition. Soon after his arrival here jolm distinguished himself by failing the qualifications for a UNO-Glory Athlete. All four years have seen johnny on the rep Track-and-Field team, during which period he was most. often seen as a distant blur by competitors. Other sports interesting Hos were squadron and intermediate football, and squadron hockey. Somewhere in there, johnny managed to battle his way through Civil Engineering- seeming to struggle along with thc rest of us until we saw his name in a How About That! position on the marks list. i DXCSL of -1 Squadron jolmny has again successfully mastered all his courses-with a creditable showing in Social Dynamics too. Soon he will be off to TeehfCE in the Air Force, with such a foundation of success here at college, he is sure to keep on building. Best of luck to a great guy - Ol' Hosf, M.P.W. 6914 GRAHAM BRUCE HUNTER Ottawa, Ont. The eighteenth of February 1944 was an eventful day in Cheshire, England, it was then that Chase was letting out his first indignant screams at being born into a Navy family, for he wished from birth that he might someday be a jet-iockey. After several years of hopping around Canada with his family, Graham graduated from Lakefield College School and realized the first step towards his ambition when, in September 1962, he signed up as a pilot in the R.C.A.F. and put his life into the hands of the seniors at R.M.C. Time does indeed fly quickly, and Chase soon found himself entering his final year in Civil Engineering as the C.S.A. of 5 Squadron. In support of the squadron he has participated in hockey, football, and sailing. ln addition, he has lauded the sweet sound of the pipes as a member of the R.M.C. Pipes and Drums. Graham's motto is Every man a tiger , one could certainly describe laying sidewalks during summer training as a beastly iob, but those days are gone, for very soon his goal will be realized as he climbs into the cockpit of a Tutor to 'fslip the surly bonds of Earth. Bonne chance, Chasseur!! A.P.B. 6916 RICHARD LEE jACKSON Ottawa, Ont, Born in Ottawa in 1943, Rick served five years in Sea Cadets, an experience which directed him towards a career in the RCN. Rumor has it that he had applied for Pottzebbi Tech. before being snapped up by R.M.C. Rick, sometimes known as 'fletter-a-day boy , may be reached during most weekends in the Capital City, presumably keeping his eyes on the stamp situation. At the College, however, Rick directs his energies into other channels, including the activities of the rifle and pistol teams. During his third year, he was widely recognized as the Cadet Wing Typist and known to his room-mate as 'flightening rod for his capacity to attract shafts of all sorts. His natural abilities won him the position of lead drummer in the Pipe and Drums during the last two years. Besides being the best shop on the Pistol Team in his final year, he shone as one of Dean Stanleys better boys in General History. ln his room Rick is saving pennies in his lampshade, it is sincerely hoped that he will use some of these to buy a better brand of coffee to replace the mud he brews now. Best wishes for the future, Rick.

G.E.G, 6812 LAWRENCE IYARCY TINSDALIC-jOHNSON Galt, Ont. LDT was born and raised in Galt, a career in the Army Cadets and the Militia determined his future life-attending CMR and RMC, his great interest in money deter- mining his future work-an officer in the RCAPC. In five years in the CSC system, LDT has learned many lessons, most of them involving the bridge table. However, he found time to spare from his efforts to make the Canadian Bridge Team, as his contributions to the Intermediate Football Team in the last two years attest, yes, LDT is living proof that even sporting spatzes can be football heroes. LDT dropped his honours standing this year to permit himself more time for practical things- namely manipulating the stock market, even so, Laurie managed to be one of the standouts in the Economics course. Graduation will find LDT on his way to the scenic wonders of BC, degree in one hand and bride in the other. His infectious personality and easy sense of humour should see him far in life-bon chance, LDT. D.H. mos PRABICN KAIQRSVANG Truro, NS- A long time ago someone came up with the Marshall Plan, one of the European countries had an aid plan of its own, though. As a result, there came to Roads a gift from the level plains of Denmark Cvia the rocky shores of Nova Scotia and the hell of Vevzrzlre trainingl. One look at the CSC system was enough to convince our blond Viking of the benefits to be derived from a close study of hymopaedia flearning in one's sleeplg as a result of constant practice, Prab can now hibernate for the entire year, whilst still managing to pass his General English course quite successfully. ln his few waking moments at Roads and RMC, Prab played water polo, his natural aquatic talents led to his being drafted to the swimming team for the Canadian Pacific trials for the Canadian team. Pralfs other activities are far to numerous to list: they range from skiing to hypnotism to speed reading. Socially, Prab is the originator of weekends in New York and the how-tt1-run-a-car-on-fivc-cents-a-week school Cyou borrow from others.D A Navy flier, Prab will go out XVest upon graduation, we all ioin in wishing that he gathers sufficient material there to finish off his oft-promised novel. Good luck! D.l.L. 7009 f ALIQXANDICR KERR Montreal, P.Q. Sandy Kerr is an ex-member of 4 Squadron, an honorary member of 3 Squadron, CSC of I Squadron, and a member in good standing of the Boozing Bachelors. He was born and raised in Lachine, P.Q., leaving La Belle Province to enter the Navv through Venture, From there it was a short flip to Royal Roads, where he found himself hanging on to the end of a set scrum. Like the best of us, Sandy is one of many who advanced from Engineering to Arts in the move to RMC. During his stay here, he has excelled in various activities: rugger, squadron hockey, draft-glass collecting, and helping Hank with his statistics. Something the Class of '66 will be eternally grateful for is his contribution to the organization of the various Grad functions. Best of luck to you, Sandy. Being a staunch Navy supporter and a Politics maior in an integrated force, you are going to need all the luck you can get. G.D. 7010 RON DOUGLAS A. KIDD Cochrane, Ont. Reared deep in the pulp-and-paper country fseventy miles north of Timmins by canoeb in Cochrane, Ontario, Ron finally set his compass west by south-west to end up at that fine government institution Royal Roads. As a member of MacKenzie Flight, he soon became well known on the hockey rink and the football and rugby fields-to say nothing of other fields. Having exhausted all local social conveniences, Ron shifted to new prowling grounds in the vicinity of R.M.C., where his quick, winning smile soon had him on a very solid footing. This year Ron left 2 Squadron to become a successful cadet officer of 3 Squadron, where his enthusiastic participation in intramural sports and recreational activities have established him as an active and very popular cadet. His love of the great outdoors is now enhanced by increased mobility Cfrom a canoe to his T-Birdh, which, together with his keen eye for a well-rounded curve and his carefree sportive manner, seems to suit his purposes well. No need to wish you success Ron, but here's wishing you the best anyway. N.D.K. 69 1 ERWIN ,IOHN KILOTAT Eganville, Ont. Many, many years ago Ctwenty-three to be exactb Kilo entered the world somewhere in Germany. From that time until he arrived at four years ago, his life is a closely guarded secret. For his first three years at the College, Kilo seemed to be interested only in Civil Engineering and squadron sports. However, during his final year, it was discovered that such was not the case. For he became CFL of one of the keenest flights in the wing, and was so busy that he was seldom seen by the members of his flight. Whenever anyone went to see him, they would find one of two signs on his door: ON LEAVE or at C.E. LAB. Naturally, such goings-on aroused more than a little curiousity, and an investigation was launched. This investigation revealed that he was indeed at the C.E. Lab occasionally curing concrete slabs for a local firm. The rest of the time, however, he was at a place called Belleville. VVhat he was doing there we can only guess. After graduation, Kilo joins the RCE, and goes immediately on course, a posting that will force him to postpone certain plans at least until after Christmas. Congratulations and best wishes for continued success are extended to Kilo for coming years. G.C.S. l 6919 Following a flash of lightning in Finland, the Flying Finn was born - january 31, 1955. Finland being DOE entirely to his liking, he moved to XVelland, Ontario, where he attended high school. VVhile there, he decided that the R.C.A.F. was the only way to fly and, in the fall of 1962, he entered R.M.C. The Finn chose Engineering Physics for his academic field and hockey and basketball as his sports, playing on the intermediate teams, he also exhibited skill in lacrosse and football. Since he did not like marching with the masses, he chose to have the masses march along with him, becoming the rum-tum-tummer of the big bass drum in the band. In his senior year he was transferred to 5 Squadron, being rewarded the CSC appointment in P Flight, the only flight with a truly international flavour. The success of Finn's fiscal year is only a sample of things to come, for the future 1 appears to hold great things for him, flying, matrimony ffollowed by a flight of small 1 Finnsi, and, he hopes, graduate studies lie ahead. Best of luck, Finn. . ln july of 194-1, on the wide-open plains near Regina, a son was born to a certain Larson family, and the happy parents affectionately christened him G.B. . Several years later, our hero was to find himself running through the gardened beauty of Royal Roads as a typi- cally bewildered recruit, an officer cadet in the Canadian Army. Soon, however, Gary started doing most of his running on the Rugger field, and until sidelined by an iniury, was one of the stalwarts of the first fifteen. In spite of the repeated warnings of his friendly neighbourhood engineers, Gary chose to become an HIISHIHI1. As he worked his way through his senior year at Roads and his two years at R.M.C. he really surprised no one by pulling down some pretty good marks in Honours Economics and Politics. ln his final year, Gary has been unfortunate enough to attain the position of AXCWA. You know him: he's the fellow all the SDC's must wake up ten minutes after reveille to shove parade states into his sleepy face. How we all admire GB. for his steadfast devotion to duty while the rest of us snuggle deeper into our pillows.

K1.IiINSTEUBI:2R Camp Borden' Om- Neil, born into an Air-Force family, enioyed many years of travel, seeing thirteen countries in the process. He decided, however, that he should live a quieter and more settled life and headed for C.M.R. to Champlain Squadron. There, he contributed much lo both social and athletic activities and became one of the beret-wearing crew of chemical engineers. At the same time, his keen eye for symmetry and love for shiny things won him three bars for the Honour Slate. After becoming familiar with the Montrealaise'f our hero set off at a brisk trot for R.M.C. Once there, he immediately mounted the spider insignia of a Frigateer and fought gallantly for the glory of l Squadron. Again adorned with a three-bar cluster, Neil marked off the straight and narrow for the less-perceptive members of his group. Under his expert guidance, the 7 Rifle Team celebrated a long string of victories, suffering only one defeat. On May 27 a man in a white Corvette will glide under the Arch, bound up the ladder of a promising career, armed with the knowledge and experience gained in five years of diligent application. R.D.A.K. KALEVI SAKARI KURONFN Welland, Ont. j.G.M. 6920 jAMES DOUGLAS LAMBLQRT Edmonton, Alta. At R.M.C. Doug will probably be best remembered as a big wmv who carried a big stick. For his last two years he was the proud mace-carrier of the R.M.C. Pipes and Drums giving his position an added touch of distinction by sporting a moustache. He is an Edmontonion who found time to study the fundamentals of flying, through active modelling, whilst achieving a first-class honours diploma from Eartgled Composite High. VVhat way could there be to pursue one's interests and apply one's abilities than to ioin the R.C.A.F., and come to R.M.C. to tackle the difficult electrical engineering course? Rather conservative on the ground, Doug is content to watch his friends drive by him in their flashy unpaid for cars, while he tours about in his OXVN '52 Dodge. However, with his sights set high for the future, it appears that Doug will be dividing his time between post-graduate work and iet-iockeying. l'm sure he'll be successful in both fields. VVe all wish Doug the best of luck for the future. K. E. H. 7014 GARY BERNARD LARSON Regina, Sask. B. R.

P.j.N.J.C. 6744 DAVID IAN LAYCOCK York, England In 1943, in a war-torn English mill-town, Dave started out to explore the world. His exploration took him to Canada in 1951 and back to England in 1957. There he began infantry training on his own Cprcparing for RCOCJ and by wandering across Europe during his summers, often having to steal potatoes to survive. He was eventually caught and sent to CMR. VVhile at CSC, Dave has been active as co-editor of the Rempart, as one of editors of Marker, and as associate editor of the leG'L'fL LL'. He has also helped to add sparkle to the College papers with his yellow-press journalism and controversial short stories and articles. Dave, one of the two surviving students in Honours English, is making top marks. This year he even had to take an extra course to keep himself busy. With his literary ability, we know he has a great career ahead of him. Good luck in the future, Dave. P.K. 7088 HUBERT LEDUC Drummondville, P.Q.

O.R.'s loss was our gain, for during the four years he spent here, Bob won the respect and friendship of all members of '66 by his quiet, unassuming manner, his warm personality, and his ability to do his job efficiently. These qualities were evident in all he did here, from sports to academics. In General Science, Bob by the end of third year, had earned a place in the top third of his class. In squadron sports, he shone in football and hockey. The rewards of such dili- gence have not been lacking in the social sphere either, as his K.G.I-I. '68 sweatshirt no doubt testifies. In second year Bob turned his efforts to the pipe band. Senior year not only brought him a change of squadron, but of social status as well, Bob took the big step and became a member of the exclusive Galaxy 500 Club. After graduation, Bob will go the Tech AE Branch of the RCAF, to follow a career which began in Manitoba with the Air Cadets. VVishing him success would be superfluous, all he requires is to carry on the way he has for the last four years, and success is assured. R.L.j. 7019 SAMUEL EDWARD LIPIN Deep River, Ont. Sandy, better known to all as SEL, is one of the few chemical engineers who believe in pleasure before acadmics. But, despite this motto, he has been able to attain top marks during his two years at Royal Roads and his final years RMC. Coinciding with SEL's natural academic abilities are his feet-I mean his soccer ability. Being on two championship soccer teams at Royal Roads and two almost champions at RMC, he has proven himself on the sports field to all who have watched. During his fina' year at RMC, SEL concentrated on a more practical aspect of his academic training-that of growing beans with a chemical compound used as a fertilizer. Whether he will continue his research after the academic year depends on whether or not the beans survive that long. In all seriousness, with his mental alertness, likable personality and sense of humour SEL will excel at everything he undertakes. His multitude of friends wish him every success and, all good luck in the future. j.M.L. 7020 .IOHN FRANKLIN LITTLE Saskatoon, Sask.

In spite of his preoccupation with the finer points of Games Theory, he has succeeded in astonishing all with his ability to pass his course effortlessly. jack chose the Senior Service and finds the prospective globe- trotting career of a Naval Officer to his fancy. As a matter of fact, he may have told you about the last time he was in Copenhagen. He has an exceptionally keen mind, which will no doubt see him to success in any career he chooses, be it in Las Vegas or the wardroom. For a brief period he capably handled Lasalle Flight at Roads. An unfortunate accident abruptly ended a distinguished soccer career, for- cing him to fall back to more intellectual pursuits. jack is now chiefly known for the Manor in which he exercises. Best of luck, jack. See you in Copenhagen. G.M. 6547 PETER EDVVARD LLOYD Kingston, Ont. August 16, 1942 was a momentous day for Kingston, Ontario: Peter Lloyd was born. Pete enjoyed civvy life but, being a very patriotic soul, he answered the call in 1961, and donating his mind and body to RMC. His aspirations towards an Honours French degree were squelched when his non-bilingual nature made him a member of the Five-Year Club. Peter promptly entered General Science. A spirited competitor and body-driver, Pete played for the Senior Hockey Team, as well as being a valuable asset to No. 5 Squadron in football, sailing, and rifle-shooting. In the field of extra-curricular activities. Pete and his father have filled a vital role in con- tributing to the success of many parties during the last five years. Militarily, Pete has also been successful at RMC, receiving the appointment of Cadet Flight Leader in his senior year. The RCAF caught Pete's fancy and he chose the Tech!Tel. branch. He is looking forward to graduation and a career in the Air Force. It has been a pleasure to have you for a class-mate, Pete, best wishes for continued success. T.L.D. :H 7023 BRIAN P- LUKER Montreal, From Montreal, 'Luke' came to Royal Roads to give the Navy a try. Most of his time, however, was spent in his three choice pursuits - girl-watching, elbow- bending and squash- playing. Lukels fine record at Roads ensured his entrance to RMC. Not deterred by the fact that RMC has no squash courts, Luke managed to fit in quite well. Luke has always been a strong supporter of his squadron, filling in quite well on the volleyball and the floor- hockey teams. In off moments during the year he attends football games in Toronto .... As a mechanical engineer, Luke did 1101? have much spare time, but he supported the Glee Club - just before and after their visit to Halifax. After graduation Luke's off to the loving and tender care of the RCN, and to another mate in Halifax. Good luck in your career in the Navy, Luke, and smooth sailing. You may need it. 6548 CORDELL CARL LUKEY Chelmsford, Ont. The quiet hamlet of Chelmsford, a suburb of Slagtoxvn, Ont., hasn't recovered yet from October 24, 1942, when Cord made his grand entrance. Resisting the lure of the nickle mines, Cord heard the call of his country and headed for the RCAF and RMC. For three years, Electrical Engineering and Tech!Tel were his obiectivesg but enforced graduation to the five-year plan in third year called for a switch to politics and Economics and TechfMSE. Cord is one of the most active members of 66 , his most outstanding activity was as a member of the rep Fencing Team, of which he was captain in his senior year. He also played squadron lacrosse, soccer, football, and hockey, as well as competing on the rifle and pistol teams. In addition he was active in the Glee Club, thc I.R.C., the Newman Club, and also earned the rank of CSC. Any one with such an interest in life as Cord has can't help but succeed, regardless of occupation. P.E.L. 6923 GLEN WILLIAM MacKINNON Dobbinton, Ont. Glen was born in a farmhouse near Paisley, alongside Lake Huron, in Ontario, and lived in the surrounding district until coming to R.M.C. in the fall of 1962. Here, he made an early decision as to his academic aims, becoming one of the small class of second-year Artsmen, and going on in Economics and Commerce in his third and fourth years. An active participant in sports, Glen played intermediate hockey in his first year, during his second year, he was unfortunately sidelined with a broken ankle. Last fall he captained the 1 Squadron softball team to second place in the intramural league. His other interests included working for the Review for two years and supporting the Drama Club for three, winding up with one of the leading roles in this year's production. Following graduation, Glen plans to become a pilot in the R.C.A.F., having enjoyed one summer in the skies before being grounded with the rest of the ROTP fly-boys. Best wishes, Glen. I.R.C. 6552 JOHN GEORGIC MACKO Toronto, Ont. On September 29, 1942, some years after the Slovak population of Canada had been in- creased by two, Muggcr Cas he is known by all? was born in Toronto. After being an active participant in high-school activities, the call of the Army and RMC was unresistable. In 1961 Muggcr arrived in the Limestone City but was fated to drop into the Class of 66. Initially eager to become an engineer, he modified his interests to take up the study of Economics and Commerce. During his four-year stay in Lasalle he knew better things must lie ahead: therefore in his senior year he registered in the Hotel as a full-fledged member of 5 Squadron. Mugger was a member of the Senior Football Team and in the off-season was seen whizzing back to check his man in the B Hockey League. Upon graduating Mugger will be heading to thc RCASC after having said, I do to his high-school sweetheart. Nothing but the best lie ahead for Nlugger in everything he may be faced with-even a houseful of little Muggers. K.S.K. 7027 NORMAN EDWARD MacMURCHY Winnipeg, Man, Norm sprang to life on April 12, 19-15 in Belleville, Ont., giving him the distinction of being one of the youngest in his class, and only a month and a half of his cadet life to do it legally. Born into a service life, he has travelled extensively in Europe and Canada and has followed up this nomadic life with camping trips during the summer. Having a keen eye and a deep bass voice, Norm was a natural for the rifle team at Royal Roads, and the Match Rifle Team and Glee Club at R.M.C. Although he did well academically at Roads, he waited till he entered the Honours Commerce and Economics course at R.M.C. before showing his true prowess by shooting to the top of his class. Upon graduation Norm plans to become a navigator with the R.C.A.F., and although his distant future is unplanned at present, we are sure he will meet with all the success that has come to be expected of him. Norm, whatever the road you decide to follow, your many friends wish you the very best. K.G.M. 7028 GERALD GORDON MARK 'VVinnipeg, Man. Four years ago Gerry abandoned the harsh and bitter climate of VVinnipeg to seek his fame and fortune in the sunny climes of Victoria. His encounters with Mace the VVeez, and Strohan, and his terms as CSA and CFL brought him fame but little fortune. He therefore left Roads to try his luck at R.M.C. Taking the most direct path to fortune, Gerry joined the elite ranks of Honours Economics and Commerce. Having finally decided the way to fortune fi.e., get commissionedl, Gerry devoted himself in his fourth year to his studies. An outstanding soccer player at Roads, Gerry was continuing in this role at R.M.C. until a severe injury forced him to the sidelines. But you can't keep a good athlete down and this year he returned to bolster the Frigate's B-ball squad. A navigator at heart, the same iniury has forced Gerry to step up into the Non- Flying List of the RCAF as a Supply Officer. Gerry's immediate plans concern a girl named Barb and a date in August. All the best to you both Gerry. You have a great future ahead of you. W.G.P. 7029 BRUCE TAYLOR MARTIN Richmond, B.C. As a young salt from God's country, BT entered Royal Roads in a quiet sort of way, but over the two years built up quite a reputation for himself as a Hudson Flighter and a Navy man. R.M.C. could do little in the next two years to hold this cadet back, but it seems that the patents office slowed him down a little when they refused to assign a number to his Martinization Processf' If Bruce could not be found out supporting his flight or squadron in soccer or badminton, you could be sure that he'd be in his cabin carefully studying his car magazines. Yes, we'll all remember the day when Bruce brought his 289 Mustang GT through the Arch and on the way by asked Lennie where he could set her down. However, what really upset the Commandant was the evidence of two big gouges left inside both sides of the Arch by Bruce's broad shoulders. From R.M.C., it's off to the RCN and many foreign ports, but in the meantime, Bruce, all the best on Route '66. ERE, 6772 ROBERT PETER YVILLIAAI AIASON . Aflarkham, Ont On january 11, 1944, Oxford, England was honoured by the birth of a new scholar, Bob Mason, who has subsequently lived in such remote areas as the Phillipines Camong the nativesb, Port Credit, and Oakville. Currently, he calls Markham, Ontario, home. Initially a C.M.R. glamour athlete when he joined the C.S.C. system, Bob has continued to be one of the best and hardest-working athletes at R.M.C. Playing for the Senior Football and Basketball teams indicates Bob's most noteworthy athletic achievements, although he has been hampered somewhat on the basketball courts by a recurring knee injury-a sore point he seldom complains about. Bob, one of the slave-driving C.F.L.'s in 3 squadron, plans a navigator course with the R.C.A.F., if he does not get a scholarship after graduation. Presently the Mase attains a very high standing in Chemical Engineering, but this has mostly been attributed to his unorthodox and over-powering use of coloured pencils in laboratory write-ups: B0b's sincerity of expression and simplicity of wit are sure to guarantee him success.

When his Senior Football Team chose Mac as captain this year, they told him that it was because of his leadership, drive, and athletic ability. Actually, it was because he could run faster than anyone else on the team so that people just had to follow him. When it comes to B hockey, however, the position of captain required more than just speed, so Mac contented himself in almost everything, including broken sticks. Yes, Mac was LAWRENCE one of our class's best athletes. In Bertrand McCurdy, we saw Mac as the philosopher and scholar, giving advice to friends when brains were needed, and bringing fun to parties when wit was needed. Yes, Mac was near the top of our class. Those of us in 5 Squadron saw the daily Mac- usually happy, ever interesting, and always a reliable friend. The daily Mac was liked and respected by everyone. Yes, if you want a person you can count on, a friend you can respect, and a buddy to laugh with, get to know Mac. With you Mac, we send our friendship, and the hope that we'll meet again soon. J.A.w. 6811 GERALD KEITH MCDONALD Ottawa, Ontario Keith was born on August 2, 1944 in Calgary, but he spent most of his early years in Edmonton. After finishing high school, he decided on the bicultural, bilingual plan, signing on at CMR in 1961. Perhaps the fact that his brother was also there influenced his decision. During his stay in St.-jean, he managed to keep active, bcsides having slight disagree- ments with the admin boys , he played in a variety of sports. At R.M.C. he continued in sports with the rep Track and Field Team and the rep Curling Team, both of which won the OSLAA championship for the past two years. ln academics, he followed a course in Politics and Economics. He has the somewhat dubious distinction of being the first senior in the squadron to require a new leave card because he ran out of space- on the PASS side Q42 entriesj. However, he did well, as indicated by his senior year appointment-CFL of E flight.

Some people are born with silver spoons in their mouths, but the legend has it, that this young fellow was born wearing track spikes, and judging from his ability to cover distances you'd better believe it. For the record, Barry was born, june 12, 1943, in Toronto. After a high-school career majoring in track and football, Barry set out for Royal Roads, where he heard there was a whole lot of running going on. Although being a member of Hudson Flight should be glory enough for anyone, the Blog also won distinction as a cross-country runner. Barry also showed his versatility as a member of the rep soccer, rugger, and hockey squads. On coming to R.M.C. B.R. left none of his skills behind, for he soon established himself as a standout member of the track and harrier teams. lVhen not wearing spikes or Snowshoes, he was probably wearing cleats of blades, as he again donated his talents to the rep soccer team and to the baby-blue hockey squad. The Mog has become closely associated with such things as dark glasses, green racing .XlGB's, and very cute blondes. Besides all this, Barry still managed to top his class academically last year and is shoe-in for repeat honours this year. jr. 6927 j.

Ken's home was VVinnipeg from May 15, 1943, until he took up residence in College Militaire Royal de St.-jean in the late summer of 1960. He says he came into the system for reasons of travel, sociability and the opportunity to learn more than academics. Being an accomplished hitch-hiker, he has travelled over much of the North American continent, Mexico, California, and Hawaii being only a few of the places he has visited. When he becomes a pilot he may see still other parts of the world. Being highly extroverted, he chooses activities which bring him face to face with other people. Playing judo and basketball, refereeing in college and local leagues, singing with the Glee Club, plus a Spectrum of itra-mural activities sum up his interests. Academically, he is in the hallowed ranks of the Artsmen and is successfully pursuing a degree in Economics and Commerce. To this he someday hopes to add an engineering degree. All his friends wish Ken the best in anything and everything he attempts. C.C.L. 7034 BARRY STEVEN MORRIS Toronto, Ont. Barry UA-go-go Morris was born and raised in Toronto. Always friendly and ready with the jokes, Barry is a most likeable fellow. His wit has sparked many a dull conversa- tion, and his effervescent sense of humour has been known to keep a party going, onc way or another. On leaving high school, Barry entered Royal Roads, where he showed outstanding academic prowess. At R.M.C. he has assumed the presidency of one of the college's most popular groups, those cadets who attempt to achive optimum results with minimum sweat. Barry enioys swimming, basketball and volleyball, and has shown extraordinary interest in other extra-curricular activities, including sign-borrowing and mouse-catching. He hopes to patent an electrified mouse-trap, no doubt a product of the vast knowledge which he has accumulated in his academic course of study.

When he did manage to come out of his hermitage, it was to take those duty-away trips to Toronto, his home and birthplace. His preoccupation was, however, mainly romantic. Doug's recreational activities have not been solely restricted to shooting and travelling, for the better weather finds him out on Navy Bay trying to catch up to the other crews of the R.M.C. Sailing Team. The shouting of orders to his crew has so developed his fine voice that he has become a member of both the Glee Club and the Protestant Choir. Between these outside activities and interests, Doug attended classes leading to a degree in Honours Economics and Commerce. However, his reasons for taking the course are far from being purely academic: he felt that such lectures might be the source of useful tips for playing the stock market. Already the holder of a private pilots licence, Douglas plans to be a pilot with the RCAF. For the moment, though, he faces more lectures. No matter how bleak the future appears, his prospects for a happy and rewarding career are high. Lots of luck, Doug. L.D. . 6344 OCTAVE ALFRED MOUSSEAU Montreal, P.Q.

A.B. 7036 PETER NEEDRA Sudbury, Ont Peter Needer sprang from the depths of Sudbury already equipped with the firm ambition to become a C.S.C. graduate. His previous experience as an army cadet furnished him with the capacity to overcome the pressures of military life with enviable ease. He ran entirely through the recruit year at Royal Roads to become First Slate's CWC, a well-deserved achievement. His physical abilities put him in the forefront in boxing, rugger, and hockey. He left Roads as a squadron leader having a bitter distaste for people who drive through red lights. On entering R.M.C., Pete continued his interest in hockey and entered the challenging field of Chemical Engineering. His successful application of mind and muscle earned him a CFL appointment in his senior year. He will be well remembered for the hallmark phrases that continually echoed through the labs and corridors of the Currie Building: I hate E.E.! Did be come with y0u? , and I laafuevft got a big nose?', Pete's forceful character and friendly nature will assure him a rewarding career as an engineer in the services.

Rick Callas 'Sea Hag'J who single-handedly comprises one-third of R.Xl.C.'s Pay Corps complement was born on August 20, IU-H, in Calgary. However, not having much say in the matter he made Cutknife, Saskatchewan his home. Throughout high school he was an outstanding and well-liked student, and, as a consequence, he served as president of the Student Council. Coming to Royal Roads, Rick started out as an avid Chemical lringineer, but all good things must come to an end, and upon arriving at R..Xl.C., he changed to Honours Economies. Rick is a prime example of what hard work and self-determination can do, after he and the CSC finally worked out an agreement acceptable to both, there xx as a tremendous improve- ment in his marks.

He choose Royal Roads, on beautiful Vancouver Island, for a start. Andy and Royal Roads got along together xery well. He finished his senior year as a CSA and colour-bearer for graduation During his two years at RMC, Andy has been a top member of the Match Rifle Team, and this year he became one of the selected members of the 280 Club. He was also captain of the 5 Squadron volleyball team during the fall term. On the military side, Andy has done well, both with the RC Sigs and at CSC. He was a CFO during his final year at RMC. Since Andy is an electrical engineer, it is only natural that he spends a great deal of his time in his room studying: but he'll be seen more often at exams.

'Patch', as he is commonly known, is a rather lucky cadet in that he had not only the good fortune to be born in the XVest but the good sense to return there. An avid artillery man, Bob is a proud member of the 3rd Royal Canadian Horse Artillery, commonly referred to as the 'Loyal VVinnipegonians.' To start off a fine career at CSC, Bob first travelled to sunny British Columbia and Royal Roads. XVhile at Roads he became engrossed with the insides of his radio and stereo, finally falling in love with wires and tubes. Thus Bob became one of RMC's industrious electrical engineers. Although indulging in such sports as softball and volleyball, Bob's main efforts have gone into rep rifle-shooting. Ifndowed with the critical eye and the steady hand so essential to an artillery man, he has built up an impressive record over the DHSY two years on the Match Rifle Team. His last coup was to win a coveted place in the ranks of the 280 Club. Notwithstanding these rather civilized pursuits, Bob has been known to let the beast in him loose - particularly when he was the chief organizer for the Recruit Obstacle Course. Hard work and deterimnation have kept Bob well up in his class. R.D.P. 6933 aiarcorai cvaii.

There he proved himself to be a driver , both athletically and academically. As a member of the rep soccer teams at both Roads and at R.M.C., he displayed a will and determination to win. This same spirit carried over to his test tubes, where, at times, he tried to play a burning monk to add excitement to an otherwise dull lab period. The R.C.A.F. finds it hard to keep Bob grounded, and his enthusiasm for flying should lead him to great heights! We hope Bob's search for the finer things in life lands him a good thing.

Rob, alias the 'LPit King , first reared his sleepy head on june 15, 1944, in the small Ontario town of Exeter. The next time he woke up was in 1962, when he found himself writing his entrance exams for CSC. Having passed this exam, he spent the two most exciting years of his life at Royal Roads, when he managed to confuse half of the female population in his spare time. Tearing himself away from Roads in 1964, he came to RMC, where he decided to con- solidate his experience from coast to coast. But all of Rob's time was not spent on girls, he still managed to sleep eight hours a day, what sleep he got at night being considered bonus. Even with this schedule, he managed quite capably to support the squadron teams, favourably impressing his seniors, who generously made him the leader of M Flight. He proved throughout this year that this confidence in him was justified, being a capable CSO and, of course, a devoted chemical engineer. As for the future, we all wish Rob success 'with the Air Force, hoping that with the use of aircraft he can keep up X131 all his interes L 6757 MICHAICL URVVIN POTTICR Victoria, B.C. Mike, or MUP, as he is better known, is from the lYest Coast f Victoria. A keen sailor, it was natural that he should choose the Navy on entering the CSC system. His first taste of the military came at CMR, where, for three years, he was a standout in aca- demics, military duties, and sports. Like all cadets from CMR and Roads, he found more important things than drill and such were to be found at RMC. Mike has, therefore, put most of his energies quantized, so here's more than one in the last two years towards an llonours degree in Math and Physics. He has also been producing a thesis on The Many and Varied Methods of Skipping Parade, Meetings, etc., without getting caught . It will be on sale soon for any aspiring third-year student. Not to be too narrow in his interests, Mike represented RMC on the Sailing 'Iieam and was one of the stalwarts on the 2 Squadron basketlnall, vvaterpolo and MIR teams.

Arriving in Ottawa in 1954, he has since called the Capital City his permanent residence. It is quite possible that his language difficulty helped him into the RCAF and ROTP. Conor spent his first two years in the system at Royal Roads, where he specialized in leave and Engineering Physics. Despite his ability to wield a slide rule, he decided to become a thinking man while at R.Al.C. ln third year Conor impressed the academic staff sufficiently to win the award for being top Artsman. ln his fourth year his ability aslan original thinker will likely keep him close to the top of the academic greased pole. In addition to being a formidable academician, he has found time to explore the inner man and to develop a sense of individuality, which is rare in any man any place. Conor hopes to do graduate work next year in the field of international political theory and then to combine careers in the academic and diplomatic fields. Success has many defi- nitions. For Conor, success would be, and we hope will be, the opportunity to understand himself and, if possible, to communicate that understanding to others.

After proving his intellectual capabilities and his physi- cal prowess at Laurentian High School, he set out for C..Xl.R. to become an engineer. Right from the start, Dave hit the books with determination. However, during one weekend visit to Ottawa at the end of his term at C.Nl.R. he met la femme fatale? Even then, after being transferred to R..Xl.C., he still found time for a few nights out with the boys, from one of which nights he still carries a engraved souvenir. Having always excelled in athletics, Dave proved to be an asset to the college in sports. He participated in such sports as rep football, rep volleyball, and squadron gymnastics and lacrosse, in which his drive and determination were second to none. ln between sports, academics, and his phone calls to Ottawa, Dave also managed to find time to do an excellent job as a flight leader and to take an active part in the li.l.C. will succeed in his career in the fighting R.C.li..Xl.I-1. 6935 I.-IRNVIN SlPPliR'li Toronto, Ont, f'Sip as he is known to his fellow-cadets came to Canada in l96S from Germany, where he was born on October 16, 1942.

Len took the shock of recruit term and then, to show every- one what he was made of, won the recruit middleweight boxing championship. He has been a valuable asset to the 2 Squadron in lacrosse and hockey. Len is keener on the military side of things. Personally. I think IHOSI cadets in 2 Squadron wish that he was less keen, because as CSTO he expected a turnout and bearing as excellent as his own. Any time not spent on the sports field or parade square he spends at the books,, trying to figure out new variations of chemical compounds Kusually alcohols, in his chemical- engineering course.

Upon becoming interested in flying, Spin did what every young man should do-he ioined the RCN. ln two years at Roads, Spin proved that he was not only a barrel of laughs fgood old home-cookingb, but also a top cadet. ldfliilst maintaining a high academic standing and holding down a CSI. appointment, Ken found time for all sports and gained the well-deserved honour of top naval cadet in the second year. ' At R.Nl.C., Spin found life very easy, until his appointment as CSTO 5 Squadron in the final year. This iob earned him the endearment Uncle Ken from the class of '69. Spin also managed one and a half seasons with the Intermediate and Senior football teams in his stay. Spin's outgoing personality and fine sense of humour will long be remembered by the class of '66, who ioin in wishing him all the best in what promises to be a fine future. 6939 Don was born in Barrie, Ontario in September 1942. Being a service brat from his first breath, Don spent the next eighteen years bouncing from base to base across Canada and even across the ocean to North Luffenham, Iingland. XVith this military background, perhaps it was inevitable that Don made the scene at R.M.C. in the fall of 1962 following his graduation from high school in XVinnipeg. At the moment Don's hometown is VVinni- peg, although he would prefer some place like Kingston, jamaica. . Between entering and graduating from R.M.C., Don has successfully mastered a General Science course, and overcome the rest of the squadrons in softball. For the past' two summers, he has been busy answering telephones for the Air Force. This summer, however, Don will begin the business of learning how to crash Tutors in and around Gimli. In this and all his other endeavours in the future, we wish Don the best of luck. 6776 TIMOTHY ALAN H UNTFR SPARLING Oakville, Om Besides Oakville, Tim could call a great many places in this and other countries his home. Perhaps it is this varied environment that has equipped him with his good sense of humour and science personality. llis many travels and his having a father who is both an ex-cadet and a successful army officer aroused in Tim a natural desire to enter R.lVl.C. Before he reached here, however, he spent threebusy years at C.Al.R. Having come to us from St. jean, Tim has made the best of his two years in Kingston. Somehow, he seems to have the ability to take part in all activities and functions, official and not-so-official. Ile could always be counted on for help, in decorating, in organizing, or almost anything else you can think of fespecially a partyl. Playing intermediate football for two years and being on the championship Volleyball Team in his third year, he became known as a good-natured deputy of the sports department this year. Besides these activities, Tim somehow found time to be the only student in Politics and Geography. From R..Xl.C., Tim is off to be an eager young officer in 4 RCHA. As long as he continues to demonstrate his willingness and pride in his work, he will no doubt be a credit to his regiment, as he has been to the college. R.D.lVI.

Hailing from Victoria, Mel started his career at HMCS Venture, where he won the award for athletic ability and sportsmanship. After his first year there, however, he took the path to Royal Roads. At Roads, he won the Obstacle Race, excelling in rep rugger, soccer, and basketball, as well as in such inter-flight sports as boxing and cross country. In his second year he was captain of the rugger team and also won the award for athletic ability and sportsmanship. Mel can be remembered as the CSI, of -I Squadron in the First Slate and CFL of Vancouver Flight in the Final Slate. Spots has. proved himself at RXIC as well. He has been a real boost to the rep Soccer Team and was its co-captain in his final year. On the inter-mural scene, Mel has been invaluable to his squadron in lacrosse, basketball, and water-polo. As CSTO of 3 Squadron, he has gained the respect of the other years and became a dreadful terror on extra drill. ln .Nlel we have found a sound, willing, and helpful friendg and we know he will make a fine naval officer.

It was a quite ordinary except that one community in Northern Ontario was marked by a greasy blotch-Pottsville, Ontario, situated on a river Hrightialong here f XVally had the pleasure of spending his first two years at Royal Roads, Where he made an immediate impression upon his seniors because of the extraordinary I-I.S. jacket he sported. He was an earnest participant in inter-flight sports at Roads and also represented the college on the first XV, as well as punching his way to the top of the middleweight division in boxing. XVally arrived a week early at R.M.C. in order to take a shot at the Senior Football Team but soon saw that it interfered too much with his curious sleepi-ng habits-to say nothing of his study habits. This year he did play for the Intermediate Foot- ball team, at least until he broke his leg while playing at Montreal. The immediate future of VVally Staples will be taken up by the R.C.A.F. in the Tech! Tel Branch, after that who knows? However, it can be safely said whatever it is, he will always do his best. P.S. 7068 GICRALIJ CIIARLICS STARK Grande Prairie, Alta. Although Gerry was born east of the Rockies, he is still a true XVesterner. On gradu- ating from high school, he decided to go to Royal Roads. XVhile at Roads he distinguished himself as a member of the diving and swimming teams. During his first summer, Gerry iomed the fly -boys at Centralia. The following sunnner, when flying was discontinued, Gerry became a member of Construction Engineering. At RM C., Gerry became one of Van B's boys and thus stayed keen all year long. In sports Gerry played intermediate football. Throughout the winter season he continued winning the diving events so that he was sent to London to compete in the Canadian Swim- ming and Diving Championships. In his final year, Gerry started the year with the Senior Football Team, which meant a trip to Calgary. XVith winter, he was back on the diving board, where he once again won our league and travelled to the Canadian Championships in 6574 R.-XI.P IVALDO ICMERSON STONIC Kemptville, Ont. More than once, on his way through R.M.C., NVally was stopped by a man saying, Hey Peker, where do you think you are going? lFor XVally was a bold man . . .J Now he says People, ideas, reflections, and thoughts meant less then, if anything.

From the twangy guitar fvoice?J to the farm loan on his car he plays the part well and claims the only reason for his degree in Electrical Engineering is to help him hook up the milking machine. No doubt but he'll produce the educated milk in Canada. Gord is a pilot in the RCAF, which he says is the only way to make money in the service In fact, he takes great pleasure in telling me how much more money he will make just for flyin them machines' Csaid with a drawl as though you were talking about bailin' hayl, than common herbies like me. Best of luck, Gord, and may the Great Dealer in the sky never give you less than a pair of deuces. D,F,B, Gerry graduates with a li.Sc and then goes into pilot training.

Best of luck, Gerry, in all your endeavours. - -- r3.J.K. 6940 RONALD CANIICRON STLIVVART London, Ont. Four Squadron's favourite CSSO first blundered into the world on February 26, 1943, screaming Waddayamean, the track meet's been cancelled again? He soon calmed down, and spent a placid childhood in London, Ontario, where he claims he didn't discover girls untilGrade XII. Making this discovery must have been too much for him, for two years later Stoo and his grin sought refuge at R.Nl.C. Safe at last from the opposite sex, Ron released his energies with the Senior Football Team in his recruit year, and with the intermediate squadron in his second and third years. When it got too cold to play football, Ron could be found in the pool, staying in the swim of things with the YVater-polo and Swimming Teams. If you ask Ron what his course is. you get a very enthusiastic reply: Gen Sci., and I'm proud of it! After graduation Ron will switch his favourite colour from baby blue to the wild blue of the up-yonder - R.C.A.F. variety. He hopes to be assigned to Transport Command, where he can fly a man-sized aircraft instead of the toys the iet set plays around with. All the best for the future, Ron. R.C'A'H' T.D. and K. 7072 FRANCIS ROY THOMAS Deep River, Ont. Roy makes his home in Deep River, Ontario-up that Ottawa. After spending a few years getting his high-school education, he left for the XVest Coast and entered Royal Roads. There he earned a reputation for his boxing and picked up the nom de boxe Tiger Thomas. I-Iere at RMC, he played the original drive-the-body on the sports scene. I-Ie played water-.Dolo for the squadron while easily topping his weight in the amateur wrestling com- petition. Lacrosse, sailing, B hockey, and some attempts at boxing filled in other sports afternoons. Roy's big love at RMC has been getting away from the College. In third year this meant circumventing the leave system in order to make visits to an apartment on johnson Street. In fourth year, it meant taking trips to Ottawa to peruse, with help, newspapers in the Archives for his Honours History thesis. As president of the International Relations Club, Roy travelled to XVest Point to take part in a seminar. Next year, Roy hopes to do post-graduate studies in history. Failing that, he'll be in Calgary with the Armoured Corps. He'll probably get married, too, if he has the time. R.V.P. hutqa. G0 upli- 6694 LAVVRLNCIQ DIAMICS TOLTON Oak Lake, Man. Tolts was a 'Roadent' but this should l10t be held against him, as he more than made up for this defect by spending three years at R.M.C. No mean feat, that. His vast knowledge of the system and his deadly accurate humour have made him valued associate of all who know him. Larry was undoubtedly come into his own during his senior year. As chairman of the R.M.C., a worthy member of the Match Rifle Team, a stalwart on the line of his squadron football team, and as his squadron's saving grace in gymnastics, Tolt has repeatedly show his potential. His achievements are magnified when one considers the many hours he spent travelling to see his true love in Toronto, and hitting the books for his Mech. ling. degree. After graduation comes VVinnipeg, and though the LSO course is new. we know that he will continue to succeed as he has done in the past. VVe wish him all the best in the future and hope that he doesn't break his neck on the ski-slope. P.G.N. 7076 JOHN PLTLQR van HAASTRLCHT TOFOHYO. OHI- The Black Man Ca Torontonian by choice? began his service career on the right foot by arriving at the scenic majesty of Canservcol Royal Roads with a CARE package under one arm and a pillow under the other. lVith such a start, one need hardly add that while at Roads john participated fully in both the social and the athletic spheres of college life. Unfortunately, however, he was led to believe that the social life of an engineer left much to be desired, with the result that he transferred to the echelons of General Science, dropping, alas, the sacred vows of engineering. Yet to cast our young man in the role of social gadabout would be an injustice. lVhile at Roads, john served as the extremely able manager of the ruggcr team. At R.M.C. he put his experience to good use as co-manager of the Intermediate football team, where he once again demonstrated his abilities. As aN.avy man, john has passed three memorable summers. Upon graduation, he hopes to combine the best of two worlds by becoming a pilot. Vlfhatever he may choose to do, we all join in wishing all the best to L'Pits. 6946 GUY RONALD ARTHUR VICRMANDER Perth, Ont. Born in St. Boniface, Manitoba, and raised in the Northern Hemisphere fanywhere from England to Ottawaj, Ron finally ended up living in Kingston. After ruling out Queens, Verm made the wise decision of coming to RMC and joining the Air Force. Ron's interests are wide and varied, ranging from fishing and skiing to electronics. Despite these hobbies, which leave no time for study, his academic standing has been con- sistently good. However, the artsman's image of pipe-smoking and sleeping in class is very deceptive, for Ron is actually one of the 'brains' in Honours Science. His great elaims-to- fame are his ability to get plush postings lTrentonJ and his supplying MA Flight's toast and coffee. One of the four-year RMC types, Verm will pursue his studies in post-graduate work at the Aerospace Institute at the University of Toronto, he will then join the telecom branch of the RCAF. to like everybody will assure his success. 6354 RICHARD BRIAN DOUGLAS XVALKLR Montreal, P.Q. R.B.D. seems to enjoy doing things the hard way. From a peaceful life in Montreal, he went to C.M.R., at a time when it was known as one of the seven horror spots of the world. Most of his classmates could only hack three years there, but Rick was having such a great time playing football and hockey - while commuting - that he decided to stay another year. His love for uthe system reached its peak at R.M.C. Having left a trail of broken masts and smoking binoculars behind him, he decided, like all true Navy men, to get the clues fast. ln his third year he managed the Senior Hockey Team and was a definite asset in. squadron sports, especially on the football team. As captain of the team, he led it to a winning season distinguishing himself by his uncanny ability for being tackled on the one-yard line. Although he feels that he has not been allowed enough leave, he has brought with him all the comforts of home to Kingston. XVith is excellent record in summer training, is out- standing ability to make friends, and his determination to succeed, Rick is destined to bigger and better things. We wish him all the best for the future. P.G.N. No matter what his future will be, Ron's easy-going and amiable nature and his ablllty 6948 MALCOLM P. XVALL Vankleek Hill, Ont. Malcolm CMael TVall, best known in the College for his guitar playing and Glee Club singing, was born in Farnham, Surrey, Lfngland on the 6th of May, 1944. Realizing that he was meant for better things, young Mac packed his bags and moved to Vankleek Hill, Ont. Cnear Ottaway. After graduating from V.H.C.l., he set his eyes on R.M.C. For four years Mac has been a member of 4 Squadron, spending his final year as its adjutant. Soccer and B Hockey sum up most of Mac's athletic endeavours, but the College Glee Club is his main interest, and to this club he has devoted much of his spare time in the last four years. The summer months have found Mac sailing up and down the west coast, learning the ins and outs of Canada's navy. Last summer he trained with the American 6th Fleet in the Mediterranean. Graduation will see Mac with a degree in Mechanical Engineering and a Sub.-Lt. ring on his sleeve. Best of luck, Mac, now and in the years to come. J.R.H. 6949 JOHN ADA ,is WATSON Ottawa. Ont- It isn't easv to predict a successful future for 'Wats', when we remember his great cam- Squadron Headquarters. He also led the Intermediate Hockey Redmen to a record that made the Football Team appear successful. However, we must be objective, even in his case. Although he is a Science student, he is quite at ease among Artsmen and even speaks to the Engineers. As an athlete, john is a tough, versatile competitor who has been a leading figure in the rise of the maroon mob to their ascendeney in squadron sports. As such, he was the natural choice for CSSO in his final year. The really outstanding thing about Wars is the fact that he has realized and achieved the true value of an education: we will go out into the world with an appreciation and understanding of people, and a desire to enjoy life with them. This combination has made it a pleasure to be his classmate and will ensure him a happy, successful future, wherever he goes. L.L.M. l 7077 PAUL FREDRICK WEHRLE Toronto, Ont. WeeHerl joined the exodus West in September of '62 leaving behind his football days at Northview Heights Collegiate. Fortunately, Paul was a member of the Big T - Thompson Flight. In his first year, along with josh Earle, Paul established the tradition of Duty Bunglerng in second year he had the distinction of being the first Permacoo, establishing something of a record for duration of duty. While at Roads, Paul was in the band, and played hockey and soccer for the College. He graduated as a CSC. Returning to his old stamping grounds in '64, Paul entered into RMC life with a will, playing Rep Football, and joining fully in the intramural sports program as one of the kingpins of 4 Squadron water-polo and volleyball teams. During his senior year he was promoted to CSC - well-earned. One of the few Gen. Sci. in French 402, Paul took advantages of the opportunities that course provided in Spring Term, and for two years now he has spent spring ogling'LLes jeunes filles de Quebecf' To both you, Paul, and to Mary also, we offer our best wishes for the future.

He was born March 8, 1944, in Section 14, Township 35, Range 26, XVest of the 3rd Merdian a major centre in southwest Saskatchewan. joe started off as a Roads Scholar , and ape man on the Rugger Team, however, a conversion took place at R.M.C., where he came out wearing No. 67 for the Senior Foot- ball Team. He has done a lot for the Service Colleges. He accepted the responsibility of a Senior Cadet and still managed to keep up the image, Under fire and pressure, he stuck to it. As a consequence, he will graduate with the distinction of being unchanged since his entry in '62. Not all of joe's time was spent in the Sservice of the College, however. During the summer the R.C.E. shouted out the orders. VVhile at Chilliwack, he managed to visit such famous attractions as Williams Lake, Cuttus Lake, and Risky Creek. joe entered Roads as an innocent, non-swimming Saskatchewan boy. He will leave the College with two major honours to his credit. Through his extensive mental and physical efforts, he will graduate in Electrical Engineering and in swimming - with his Bronze Medallion. C.N.W. 7079 CLIFFORD NORMAN WILLIAMS Innlsfail, Alta An Innisfailian at heart, Cliff is now an official Calgarian, a high school dropout at heart, he now clutches a Civil Engineering degree in his hot little hands, an Air Marshall at heart, Cliff will have to start his Air Force career one or two steps down - at the rank of Flying Officer. One would think that a person whose destiny was so twisted by fate would succumb - but not Cliff. He runs off his frustrations with the rep Harriers team. And when the running season ends, Cliff makes a habit of leading his squadron teams to one victory after another fwell, now and then anyway, but still quite an achievement considering that he is in 2 Squadronl. For what few frustrations he has left, he finds an outlet in the teeming social life of Kingston. Cliff has spent summers at every conceivable RCAF station, from Punchy Mountain in B.C. to Marville in France. In fact, a Royal Commission is presently investigating the con- nection between Cliff's overseas tour last summer and de Gaulle's decision to pull out of NATO. Best of luck with the Fates, Cliff, and send all complaints to the Editor. RGWE 6952 MURRAY PRICE XVOODCOCK Peterborough, Ont. Born May 26, 1944, this young fellow was named Murray Price. After an outstanding high school career, NVoody accepted the offer to turn pro and headed for RMC. Murray got off to a fast start, the only time he showed up at all was during the Recruit Boxing finals, when he paused to straighten a broken nose delivered by the hand of fate. Synonomous with VVoody are such things as game bird , thermoses Cforgotten in the mess every other nightl, pictures that don't turn out and Anglias that don't sell. Willing to donate his bod to any cause, Murray has displayed an all-round talent, having excelled in nearly every squadron sport, especially hockey, softball, basketball, and lacrosse. Not entirely a no-glory athlete, however, the Splinter has gained renown on the rep Golf Team, and on the Intermediate Basketball and hockey teams. During the past year he has also been associated with an anonymous group known as the Tattoo VVeight Chuckersn- a group whose main aim was to reach the before'l status of a muscle ad. Mr. Woodcock, as he is known among friends, was well up in the seasonal all-star ratings and was duly rewarded with a promotion from CSC to CFL. 6873 6953 6749 6426 6955 6958 6960 6795 6961 6732 6963 6965 6824 6817 6835 6803 6850 6894 6971 6844 6804 6753 6896 6972 6897 6760 6820 6974 6853 6975 6898 6899 6977 6900 6581 Neither Quebec nor B.C. held much attraction for this solid Ontario resident. There- fore, Dave originally planned to be a four-year R.M.C. type. Unfortunately, the attractions of the place were too much for Dave Cor was it Penny with the long blonde hairl?-anyway, in his third year, Dave became a member of the five-year club. Sports has been a big thing with Dave at the college. Skiing was his favourite, and as a result of his exploits Ccooking breakfast! R.M.C. notes Dave's participation by the loss of a ski chalet. Accidents will happen! Perhaps the appointment to CSSO of two squadron in the fourth year was the college's act of revenge. Academics went fine after the slip in third year and Dave will graduate with a degree in Mechanical Engineering. Socially, Dave is very active-probably because he owns the only jaguar in the college fit usually has blonde hair streaming out of the window to boot.J On graduation, Dave becomes a member of the Navy-which, believe it or not, he thinks is the best service. Good luck. R.W.S. 6784 ROGER ELLIOTT VVRIGHT Ottawa, Ont. january 11, 1944-Tunbridge Wells boosts quality and lowers prices. There followed the greatest run on track, swimming and soccer stars since VVorld War I. As a matter of fact, there were so many stars that one was shipped to R.M.C. via C.M.R. and C.S.C. hasn't lost a track meet to Tunbridge lVells since. XVhat is more, Roger's uncle did so much to scupper the brewing industry that Rog, showing his innate warmth and humanity, has striven manfully to show his favourite ex-cadet that what is past is past and that prohibition did no man good. Yes, good ol' Rog used to be a swinger, but that Roger has left us. The new Roger, you see, is engaged. No longer will we be able to avail ourselves of the 'firefighter' or 'sinkcleanerf Long will we remember the night Rog valiantly extinguished fire after fire that failed to materialize under Ken's door, or those non-existent fires he extinguished in the X-VOR gashebucket. The many fabled excuses for missing parades all pale when placed next to that pinnacle of imagination that Roger articulated so well after the November Ball. But the 'firefighter' moves on to greater things: marriage, a flying career, CGS Clisten to them trumpets, boy.l VVhen you get there Rog, remember the boys, remember to save a few soft jobs for us, for always it will be Mech-Eng.

NVhat is written here is not written to create a jack for you to remember. yVe were all jack's friends and we will all remember the things we ourselves liked most about him. Because he was with us, even for a short three or four years, we have our own personal jack recorded indelibly in our minds. My jack was a warm, friendly person. I could very seldom walk by his room without dropping in, though I rarely had more of importance to say than hello. More often than DOI someone else had iust left. Perhaps your Jack was a fun-loving golfer obsessed with the adventure and varity of life. Maybe it was a person with whom you shared - knowingly or otherwise - similar setbacksg with whom you made similar mistakesg with whom you reached for similarly distant goals. All these people were jack and it would be a mistake to think that they ceased to exist on the morning of 16 january, for the impression of a human life lives on in our remembrance. The highest tribute we shall pay to jack is not to mourn and then to forget, but to accept and appreciate and absorb all those things that .lack's existence has meant to each of us individually. In doing so our lives will be enrichened and more meaningfulg in doing so we will become .Iack's monument.

The RMC Redmen have returned to initiate the 1965 football season. With newly acquired coach Doug Hargreaves and his staff of Danny Carmichael, Gus McKay, and Dr. Al MacKenzie the daily workouts began today on thc lower pitch. Veterans Dickie Cohen, jim Puff Pfaff, john Shaw, George Vance, Dave Skinner, Terry Senft, Bob all-American Mason, Larry Monster McCurdy, Terry Findley, john lVlugger .Xlacko and Bruce Odd-job Stott of the 1064 Reddies are back as the nucleus for the years squad.

RMC POST MORTEM Nov. 10, RMC, Kingston, With the 1965 season completed the RMC Redmen can look back on many thrilling moments in football although no league victories. For instance there were the hard, crunching open-field tackles by Lyle Adams, john Shaw, Doug Smith and Bob Potvin, the in-fighting of the front wall, a 78-yard TD run by joe Peach against OAC, some fantastic receptions by Bob Mason and the punts by jim Pfaff. Post-mortems of football seasons are anti-climatic but credit should be given where due, to the man- agers Scotty Brittain, Ken Birch and Doug Smith, and to the team's trainer, Sgt. C. Babcock, who helped Bob Mason into many a whirlpool bath. Prospects for the 1966 season look reasonable and should prove interesting with 18 of the old squad returning for 1966. REDDIES ARE FIGHTING Oct. 17, RMC, Kingston: As the Reddies '65 sea- son nears the half-way mark the club is showing ten- dencies of a slump probably due to some really close games that were lost by the Redmen after starting very strong against the Edmonton Golden Bears and a victory over the University of Alberta, Calgary Dinosaurs in Calgary. The Redmen retumed from Calgary to open their OSLIAA schedule against the MacMaster U, followed by Ottawa U and Loyola U. Says Coach Hargreaves of his teams losses: g'F0otball is a game of mistakes, we just made more mistakes than our opponents. The Reddies have good individual potential but just haven't found the combination that clicks for them offensively. Standouts up to this point in the season are: hard-running Don Welstead, Grant Rus- coni, Dickie Cohen and ldeaky' Dave Skinner. The work-horse of the team is the front wall centred by Terrible Terry Findley, guards jim Puff Pfaff and Larry 'lMonster McCurdy, tackles 'LWild,' joe Wenkoff and Yvon Suss Soucy, ends l'Gentleman john Easson and Bob 'lAll-American Mason. The team record stands at 1-5-0. See that shiner, that's character! S P E C I A L: Feb. 1, RMC Kingston: It was an- nounced today that Bob Mason and jim Pfaff were drafted by the Toronto Argonauts and the Montreal Alouettes respectively.

Of the seven games played, the Baby Redmenv failed to capture a victory but every game had at least one memorable moment. Twice in two consecutive games, the RMC inter- mediate scored T.D.'s on fumbles which were kicked 30 yards into the end-zone. Then there was Rick Champagne's fantastic 85-yard run for a major. Pat Sloan on quarterback, coupled with Denis Guelpa, john Graham and Gilles Ouimet as halfbacks formed a powerful offensive force. The defensive squad played well too but was just outclassed by more weight, experience, and strategy on the opposition. Under the capable coaching of Capt. Hart, aided by Wayne Bulak, the men in red had a good season in all respects except the win-loss category. Naturally we're confident this one deficiency will be rectified in '66. L.

The track-and-field team this season was plagued con- tinually by poor weather. It rained during the meet in which we submerged CMR. It was bitterly cold during the dual-meet against Queen's in which the outcome was rather inconclusive because it was only a trial-run. It rained again during the OSLAA meet in which we just managed to float by Sir George Williams with a narrow three-point margin to retain the championship for the fourth consecu- tive year. Despite the limited competition, the team, especially Dave Dorman, had a very good season. We must express our gratitude to Sgt. Art Vondette for 'his work in his first year as coach. Ian Duncan ,ff CADET WING MEET The Wing -Track-and-Field Meet this year was not held under the best of weather conditions, but nonetheless there were several records broken. The rep team, as expected, dominated the stand- ings with Dave Dorman producing one of his usual outstanding performances, 5 Squadron eked out a one-point win over second-place 3 Squadron with 1, 2, and 4 Squadron following. The individual trophy-winners were as follows: Rainnie Bugle, Dave Dor- man, high jump, Pete McPherson, mile, Bob Morton, 220 yards, john Hoang, 100, 200, 440 yards, Bob Mason, throw- ing events, Ted Hague, and tug-of-war, 1 Squadron.

When the cadets returned from November stand down, the sad look on their faces wasn't merely due to the prospect of returning to col- lege routine - the Wing harriers meet was only two days away. During the next 48 hours, the most popular place in the college was the MIR. as cadets demonstrated great initiative in think- ing up reasons to be excused sports. Neverthe- less, the inevitable hour finally arrived, and with the bang of a shotgun 480 cadets trampled across the parade square. This thundering mass of hum- anity soon began to spread out as many young men demonstrated their gentlemenly manners by following an after you policy. As expected, the harriers team raced to the front, and, led by Harry Hamilton, took the first positions. But Barry Struthers from 2 Squadron raised a glint in Sgt. Vondettels eye as he crossed the finish line in the midst of the rep team as the first squad- ron competitor home. When the score was final- ly tabulated, 4 Squadron had won another vic- tory, thus breaking the Frigate's traditional dom- ination of the meet fliving on the wrong side of the square must have ruined the endurance of many a good Frigateerj. W.R.A. HARRIERS TEAM 1965-66 lf you have ever walked by the main sports field on an autumn afternoon, you've probably noticed a small group of cadets running lap after lap around the track. This was the harriers team, This squad, although almost unknown around the college, has an excellent reputation in cross- country circles of eastern Canada. Even with the loss of jim Carswell a year ago, the team continued its excellent record this year. It began the season inauspiciously with a loss to O.A.C. here on ex-cadet week- endend, but soon made up for that by defeating Queen's for the R.M.C.-Queen's Challenge trophy. After several meets, at Ottawa, Montreal, and C.M.R., the team won the OSLIAA championship at Bishop's for the fifth straight year. Two weeks later, R.M.C. represented the league at the Canadian Intercollegiate Championships held at Guelph. Against the top competition we placed fourth. The only other major event of the year was thc 30-mile marathon at the Quebec Winter Carnival. The weather there wasn't too unpleasant this year, and, as a result, the cadets remained fresh enough to enioy the hospitality of the Quebec people in the evenings liust ask usb. We all are looking forward to returning there next year. Two men were especially vital to the team's success. With Sgt. Vondettc and jim Carswell giving prudent ad- vice Cand pushing that extra little bitl, the team could not help but have a successful season. This year we will be losing Harry Hamilton and Barry Hogan, but reinforce- ments from the other colleges promise to keep RMC's har- riers team as strong as ever.

SENIOR SCCCER Despite losing many stalwarts from last year's team, the new influx from Royal Roads and CMR combined remark- ably well with the veterans from RMC to once again pro- duce a championship contender. Like last year's team, the Redmen were edged out of the OSLAA championship-a goal in any of three games would have won it for us. The team was exceptionally balanced-the glory-seeking golden-haired forwards and the rugged dependable de- fence. Playing nets for the first time, and making a very creditable performance was Rog MacGregor, backed up by Dave Lewis, protecting him were the steady hard-hitting defensive trio of Sandy Lipin, Ralph Fairbairn and Ken Summers. The two wing half positions, played by Don McLennan and jimbo Thomson, provided the necessary link between the offence and the defence. Time and again their passes to the forwards resulted in goals. Creach Spotswood, HBH. Campbell, Lynn Caple, Art Nielson fThe Great Danej, jimmy Oiseau Bird, provided the necessary scoring punch. And score they did! However, RMC was noted for its depth as shown 'by the number of goals scored by such forwards as Barry Struthers, 'gSip Sippert, Barry Twinkle Toes Watkin and Mr. Rick Potter. One individual, and I do mean individual, added more to the team with his 'spirit fs! than his actual play- ing. This of course is 'lovable 'LBlack Bart Millar. With- out him the team could never have developed the unity that was noticeable on and off the field. The team is deeply indebted to the time and energy spent on by our capable coaches Bruce 4'Conditioning Porter, Bob Machin and Dr. Rutherford. VVe would also like to thank our three tirelessC?J managers john Bailey, Pete McPherson and Tom Deining. To those who leave us we're sorry to see you go for we've enjoyed playing with you at the various colleges. To those who remain, they say that three is the lucky number. TwiceTwice we've been robbed of the championship, next year we'll get it! K. j. Summers. -X. Tx x, xx! ,f 1 . V ,. 1 MSM 2 5 ', My, I Q kts., 1 V,,3A'gL5g'f-'f':i2.5Ew, w,k,Si,,,.

INTERMEDIATE SOCCER Despite some peoples' opinions, RMC did produce a winning team this fall. The intermediate soccer team, draw- ing on spirit and drive as much as skill, was such a team. In games against York University, St. Patrick's College and Hamilton Institute of Technology, we scored one tie and two wins. It is interesting to note that in the tie against York, RMC provided defencenien to stop our forwards and forwards to get through our defence in order to make it an interesting game. The team's scoring efforts, dominated by forwards Gilles Beauregard, Ed. Burgener, Bill Lepage, Marcel Landry and Jerry Morgan, were backed by a strong de- fence led by team captain jack Randall, Russ Moore, john Orr and Mac Perry. Our goalie Ed. jackson is to be congratulated on allowing only one goal in all three games. The intermediate soccer team provided a chance for those who could not make the senior team but still wanted to play organized soccer. After a very enjoyable season, most of us are looking forward to next year to do it all again. In closing, we would like to thank our coach, Dr. john Rutherford and Conrad Roy, our energetic manager who always provided limitless refreshments at 'the game's end. wafnm., f ' A.

An early start was made in the fall with three matches against Queen's University. RMC's second XV soundly trouced Queen's intermediates in two trials. The third game proved to be a more exciting match. After a difficult battle the first XV triumphed over Queen's seniors by a score of 6-3, RMC's points being shared evently by the scrum half, Grant Rusconi and stand off, Mel Spotswood. In the spring RMC's best game was played. The rug- gers faced last year's Ontario Rugby Union Champions, the Irish Canadians from Toronto. Scoring was opened early in the first half by Mel Spotswood with a difficult drop-kicked field goal. Near the end of this half the Irish countered with a try, but failed to make the convert. The second half developed into a seesaw battle of the scrums. RMC's Scrummies , showing spectacular drive and form, put RMC into scoring position several times, but the Redmen were foiled by the stalwart Irish defence. Sev- eral times the Irish temper lived up to its reputation,but RMC showed it could meet this obstable with a few tricks of if r its own. Finally, in the last minute of play took a weird bounce into RMC's end zone, on by an Irish l'scrummie . The convert the game ended leaving RMC at the short a dribbled ball to be pounced was good and end of an 8-3 score. At this stage rugby is one step away from being a rep team. The ruggers are hoping to have greater suc- cess next fall when they compete in the new league against Qucen's, McGill and The University of Toronto. its , M. mm. s.

RMC GOLF TEAM Many a cold and windy Tuesday and Thursday September afternoon saw the dedicated group of stalwarts collectively known as the RMC Golf Team donning their spikes and heading for the Glen Lawrence Golf Club for a practice session. Because of an early start and encouragement from the PT Staff, this year's golf team faired quite well during the short golf season. Because of poor scheduling, we played in only one tournament, the CIAA,hosted by the Hamil- ton Institute of Technology at the Hamilton Mount Hope Club. After leading the tournament for the first round, we faltered the second day to end up in third place out of eight teams, behind Osgoode Hall and WOIT. It was quite a good performance, considering the opposition, and with in- creased practice and more tournaments, we are looking forward to an even better season ncxt year. Rod Brookes.

WATER POLO Despite the rather unfortunate circumstances of not having a league to compete in this year, a water-polo team was formed with the idea of playing a series of exhibition games to gain experience for next year. With only Davis, Hendry, Stewart and McEwen left from last year's team, BO. Walton did a excellent job of rebuilding the team. -CMR sent us centre Paul Beauchesne and Roads gave up Kenny, Sherk, Bowers, Smith and McClennan. Eric Meek did a standout job in goal, especial- ly since it was his first year as water-polo player. After being quite soundly beaten by U of T CCIAU Champs last yearj and McGill Qwho have several Olympic calibre playersp, we went on to end the seaon on a happy note by defeating McMaster 12-10. It was in this game that things started to click for RMC and the players began looking like a team. Hendry, Davis and Kenny played a solid game on defence, setting up the forward line of Beauchesne, Mousseau and Stewart, fwho finished off his college career by scoring 8 goals against McMasterj. Most of this team will be back next year determined to give a good showing against whatever opposition may be found - maybe even a try at a Canadian junior Cham- pionship. -y...

Con- sequently, the members were rarely seen around the college on the weekends. Our first meet was the Quebec and Eastern On- tario eliminations, in which jerry Butler and Mike Potter finished third. Having thus qualified, the same boat sailed in the Canadian Intercollegiate Sail- ing 'Championships and placed sixth. The two highlights of the season were the Wayne State International Regatta held in Detroit and the meet with the United States Merchant Marine Academy in New York City. In Detroit, seven American universities and six Canadian universities were represented. Mike Potter and Tony Wyand finished fifth over-all and second among the Cana- dians in this two-day event. For the last trip of the season, we were hosted by the United States Merchant Marine Academy. After a little practice in their large unfamiliar boats, we defeated out hosts to end the season on a very good note. The team would like to thank Mr. Girard for his ready assistance, which was undoubtedly greatly responsible for a very enjoyable and successful season. 7177.

SENIOR HCCKEY all Gilles Nappert streaks across centre '1 . .W .1 . ,Z r , 1 Gilles Aucoin at the point Hockey spectators at R.M.'C. this year readily agree that the Senior team which started practising in the fall was not the same one which played West Point at the end of the season. Weakened severely by graduation, the team was considered one of the weak sisters of the OSLAA league, and a year of rebuilding was antici- pated. Up to Christmas, these nega- tive expectations were confirmed. However, Hapres les vacances de Noel , under the able coaching and strategic direction of Major McLeod, a team began to emerge from a dis- orientated group, as a solid esprit de corps found itself. Each player carried his load, and the Redmen lost only two of their remaining regular season games, finishing a solid fourth in the nine-team league. Indeed the team which bowed to league champion Sir George Wil- liams by one goal in the playoffs represented quite an improvement over its November counterpart. Only the West Point classic re- mained to climax the season. Spurred on by an unusually large crowd, the Redmen put on a spirited display. and convincingly beat West Point R-3, the best offensive effort since 1929. Again it was a team effort, and a gratifying win for player, coach and supporter alike. From those of us who remain, best of luck to the departing members of the club. We look forward to an- other successful season next year.

At the halfway mark of the season, the senior volley- ballers led the much improved OSLAA league by one point. Aside from losing the R.M.C. Invitational in an exciting playoff game against Borden's P.T.S.'s, the team was undefeated in tournament competition at this time. Showing better form than last year's OSLAA champs, the team stood up to the best of competition including a win against the 'highly rated Canadian junior Champions, Le Concordia de Mon- treal , 3-2 in an exhibition series. Throughout the season, however, the team had trouble winning the second game of every two-game series played against each team in the OSLAA round- robin tournament. Thus even the leagues weakest teams managed to steal the odd game from the Red- men, preventing our team from holding first place. Results of the last tournament finalized our second place standing. Enough enthusiasm for volleyball was generated to allow an intermediate team to be entered in the garrison league. Final exams prevented the intermedi- ates from competing in the playoffs. The coaching and supervision of Capt. Lecavalier, VVO2 Bourgon and Sgt. Porter were very much appreciated throughout the year. The team is looking forward to next year's competi- tion which will include a newly formed 'Canadian Collegiate Championship and a tournament at the Quebec City Winter Games-both indications of the growing popularity of th-is sport. 7151. , me wing, if 7 -gggrw, -Q X ,, 3 1...

Watt CChairman.J CURLING Take a quick look at the photo of this year's curl- ing team and you'll notice something appears to be missing-the OSLAA curling championship trophy. In spite of the loss of this trophy to Carleton Univer- sity in the OSLAA playdowns held at St. Pats in Ot- tawa, we did have a successful year, winning the Bishop's Invitational Bonspiel against the same com- petition as we faced in the OSLAA'playdowns. This year's rink was again skipped by Ross Betts, with Keith McDonald third, Earle Morris second, and jack l,ittle playing lead. Once again changes will have to be made for the '66- 67 season due to the gradua- tion of two more stalwarts, Keith and Jack. We would like to express our thanks to Mr. C. R. Watt who will again be on hand next year'to provide both his support and able assistance, as manager-coach of the team. With the end of the '66 curling season we are al- ready looking forward to the coming year and are quite confident that once again the OSLAA trophy will be brought hack to the college where it helongs. D. Lowdon. No. 7 RIFLE TEAM The year 1965-66 has been a memorable one for the No. 7 rifle team. Thanks to the help of our new coach, Sgt. Moore, the team obliterated all comers except one with deadly dispatch. Our one and only loss was suffered at the hands of the Lorne Scots of Brantford in a return match after we had already trouneed them. Members of the team are quick to remind those who point out this setback that the Scots have not only had representatives in the Tokyo Olym- pics, but are now in training for Mexico. VVhat's more they have difficulty getting anyone to shoot against them. So there! Other fierce, but stimulating competition was met in encounters with teams from CMR, the RCMP of Ottawa, Western University and University of Toronto. The year has been one of accomplishment and tragedy. The passing of jack Mozell was deeply felt by all, his type is never replaced. Our acquaintanceship with Sgt. Moore will have been a short one for he ioins the match rifle team next season, l,ots of luck Sergeant, and many thanks for your valuable assistance this year. Next year our ambition is to score nothing but perfect targets and we'll do our best to come as close as possible. 7253, REAR Llovd Goethals, Dave Heath, Larry Morden, Pat Dagert, john Legaarden, Yvon Leonard, Bob Auld, Dave jurkowski, Dave Neely.

The Match Rifle team passed a supremely average season, winning three of its six competitions, all of these wins being against our unfortunate opponents from the University of Guelph falias O.A.C.j After last year's experience we should have known enough to take a spare bus along on these trips, broken fan belts tend to reduce the average speed. The team was beaten by the Lorne Scots team of Brampton both away and at home. These people may be ruthless on the ranges, but we certainly appreciated their hospitality in the mess. Our big match or the year was, of course, with West Point. Most of the team members tended to discard optimism in favour of realism, but the score was not so uneven as it was last year. Ian Cameron shot a 290 and Dave Campbell fired 287 to help us make our best score this year. Final score, West Point, 14-48, RMC, 1410. We would like to express our appreciation for the work of Sergeant Ekstrom, who has decided to retire from the army this year and settle down to shooting at cars. 7671. R.M.C. PISTOL TEAM The R.M.C. Pistol Team had a moderately success- ful and enjoyable season this year. The team had only three members returning from last year, but valuable material came from the rifle team in the persons of Terry Enright, Rick jackson and Bill McCallum. One of the '69ers, Bruce Wilson, was also a good acquisi- tion for the team. Under the critical eye of coach Sgt. Jack Meeks, who was constantly thinking of new ideas to create interest and improve scores, the team improved dur- ing the winter months. R.M.C. placed second in the BHL CBorder Handgun League, for you uninitiatedj, competed in NRA lnter-Collegiate Pistol Competi- tions, and held shoulder-to-shoulder matches with the R.C.M.P. and U.S.M.A. The meet with U.S.M,A, was the 'big match of the year, and was again won by the West Pointers, as the pressure had its effect on the R.M.C. team. Team captain, Paul Northover, was pre- sented with a beer stein by the West Point team for his performance as top scorer for R.M.C. This year sees the graduation of several of our best shooters. Best wishes for the future to captain Paul Northover, Rick jackson, Terry Enright, Bill McCal- lum and Dave Haas. REAR: Howie Williams, Dick Robinson, Dave Clrk, Chuck Franklin, Bruce Wilson.

BASKETBALL For the second straight year coach Hank Tatar- chuk has assembled one of the winningesr teams in the college - possibly the best ever. In regular league play the Redmen dropped only two games, both to Carleton, unfortunately, who placed first in the OS- LAA league with the Redmen a close second. For the first time the team tried a balanced, systematic attack as opposed to last year's brand of run 'em in- to the ground tactics, and the change paid off. The team was led by captain jim Leitch, who with big Bob Mason led the team in scoring. Bob was the team's high scorer, placing second in the league, and was named to the first all-star team, while jim was also in the top ten scorers and made the second all-star team. A new-comer to the team from Royal Roads, was Bob Brown who held down a tough centre position extremely well. A tall back- court was provided by Gord Burbidge and Dave Dorman,who both added invaluable assistance to the team's winning effort. Clive .-Xddy performed well as the sixth man. Unfortunately, jim l.eitch, Bob Mason, Dave Dor- man, Clive Addy, and jim Pfaff as well as the team managers are all graduating, but next year's team still offers lots of promise. Bob Brown has another year left, while Gord Burbidgc, XVayne Baldwin and Ken Noonan have two, and Bob Soehasky has three. Many thanks to coach lffl.

THE REDMEN SHOW THEIR FORM INTERMEDIATE BASKETBALL Those hoopsters who couldn't quite make the big league team and other cadets who just enjoyed play- ing with that Mol' Spheroidn went out for the Inter- mediate basketball team in December. But after the first few practices under task-master Ffl, Hargreaves, the number of regulars at the workouts decreased rapidly as it became apparent that this year's team would be in shape. However, those that stayed found that hard work could be fun too, and the junior Varsity team swept through the Garrison League un- defeated. Iixhibition games were played against York University, St. Pat's, F.O.I.T., and the Queen's Third Year Physical Education intermural squad - a formid- able list indeed. Next year's prospects look very good since Peter Ifosbery, Brian Stipe, juri Kasemets, joe Paech, Don Welstcad, Vaughan Bentley, Dave McCaw and Mel Dempster should all be back. lt is hoped that a new inter-collegiate league will be set up to help improve the caliber of the Intermediate team.

SWIM TEAM '66 If early one january Saturday afternoon some of the inhabitants of the bottom deck of Haldimand had heard the immortal cry, Gimme a beer , would they have immediately thought there was a drunk loose in Fort I-Ialdimand lounge? No! They would have known that the true athletes of the college, i.e.,the swimmers, had outclassed another of their rivals in the pool. This year the R.M.C. swimmers had a swumderful season, for in their five dual meets the Redmen lost but one, 48-47 to Trinity College,where a minimum number of swimmers put forth a maxi- mum effort and almost made it pay off. Their claim to fame, however, was the OSLAA meet at C.M.R. where every swimmer on the team qualified for the finals. They were second only to S.'G.W.U. but left their mark by setting an OSLAA record in the 200 yd, freestyle relay. The college was even represented in the Canadian championships at Vancouver, where the OSLAA league placed third. One can only hope that they will do as well again next year. 'l - Another of this year's pool activities included the cadet wing swim meet. Under the capable guidance of Ron Stewart the rep team and Four Squadron both managed to win-Ca pretty good stunt if you can do itj. A close race was provided by the rest of the squadrons whose all out efforts made the meet a success. T. Beaman. CADET WING SWIM MEET r 'N , if ! . 'Q NT ' S! ' '1- ' . I T . QQ.

SKI TEAM The RMC ski team didn't exactly shine in alpine events this year, but did manage to finish the season with an excellent cross-country record, taking first overall in the OSLIAA and fifth in the more com- petitive OQAA Championship. Individually the run- ners always managed to finish near the top, winning several medals at Camp Fortune. A fine show in the field of jumping by Cam Reid and a determined ef- fort by Tony Keefer, C. -I. Tyrell and Barry Struthers in cross country saved the team from complete disas- ter when they were hopelessly outclassed at Mount Sutton. The cross-country runners also participated in the annual Quebec Carnival. The alpine team managed to hold their own at the OSLIAA meet and the team placed a close fourth in the overall combined standings. An outstanding down- hill performance by Pat Sloan at Sutton helped our team standing. Wade Cuthbertson, Doug Wylie and Vince Bellegarde put forth consistent efforts all year in the alpine events and were the backbone of the alpineteam. Dave Young carried on as coach of the alpine team after the loss of Capt. Fortier and kept the team working throughout the rest of the season. Rog Ayotte. it was GY N pf xx-. 1. L,,,,Vf7'wvrf!

The intersquadron competition saw a large field of entries. Since the sport was included in the PT Cur- riculum 2 years ago, the skill has been built up con- siderably, thanks to the efforts of our fine PT Staff. The fact that this year's results counted towards the right-of.the-line standing resulted in the keen interest taken by the Cadet Wing. Congratulations to three Sqn on its fine winning effort. H. E.

These judokas have had a very busy schedule of first-class competition. At the McMaster University Annual Tournament the 5-man RMC team reached the semi-finals in a field of 20 teams. The climax to RMC's iudo season was the annual Eastern Canadian University judo Championship held at the Ryerson Polytechnical Institute in Toronto. The team championship eluded the RMC due to a very close decision. However, in individual competition RMC carried home lst place trophies in the junior heavyweight, the senior lightweight and senior mid- dleweight classes. As well,the team went to a grading tournament in Toronto at the end of each month. This gave every competitor a chance to try for a higher belt. Con- sidering how new the team is, it had a most success- ful season. H. E. Hartung. Even in judo The big guys I F f f.

This year the boys suffered their share of aches and pains as they laboured away under the careful direction of Sgt. Vondette. But, when all was said and done, they had a pile of fun in the process. In an active season the team hosted two mets here at RMC and attended others at Queens, U. of T. and U. of NI. The competition was stiff and rewarding. One of the teanfs major successes was capturing the OSLAA championship here at RMC. A non-competitive highlight of the year was a trip to Montreal to watch the North American Championships. The team loses two fine gymnasts when Doug Moon and Barry Grace graduate this year. We wish you the best of luck fellas! The team also wishes to thank Sgt. Vondette for his time and patience. We sincerely hope that he will be available to coach us again next year. B. A. Grace. lx. , l r'TiX T . W 2 WING GYMNASTICS MEET On the 28th of February, teams of trim, well- muscled gymnasts gathered in Ye Olde Gymne for the Wing Gymnastics Meet. The level of competition indicated that more thought and preparation could have gone into some of the routines, but several in- dividuals stood out.

BADMINTCN The badminton team which represented R.Kl.C. had all indications of promise previous to the intercol- legiate tournament at Sherbrooke. lt was comprised of two singles contenders and one doubles teams and, of course, one spare. The two singles competitors were Wally Stone and Barry XYatlcin, both very rusty after a prolonged absence from the game. The doubles team was comprised of a quick and fiery little player, Ken Summers, and an equally adept and crafty lefty Sandy Lipin. These two were to prove to be the most successful in the tournament and in fact, made the rmals, but lost the championship by a small margin, to a very competent C..Xl.R. team. Our singles rusties squeaked out of the competi- tion in their first games. They then entered the second elimination, but Barry' met stiff competition from the beginning and lost. VVally went on until his third game. XVe hope that next year more talent will show it- self. Competition at the tournaments is amazingly keen and talent is exceptional.

S x THE RECRUIT OBSTACLE RACE Before I even came to RMC as a recruit, I had heard of an event called the Recruit Obstacle Race. From pictures and descriptions in the papers, I knew that it was a rigorous and demanding race. What I didn't know, however, was the great importance it holds in the college, or what running the race is really like. To begin with, it is one of the many traditions of RMC that every recruit must run the obstacle race, and it is a milestone in his becoming accepted as a true member of the cadet wing. Running the course marks the end of the main part of Recruiting and an easing-up of the recruits' hurried existence and deprivation of privileges. In short, the Recruit Ob- stacle Race is a unique event, and only the partici- pants themselves can really understand the anxiety, exhaustion, and elation which come before, during, and after the race. Prior to running the course, we underwent an intensive conditioning program carried out in our physical-training periods. This program consisted of cross-country runs to Fort I-Ienry and back, in- structions and practice in coping with different types of obstacles, and exhausting exercises and gruelling circuit training. Naturally, we inwardly complained of all this hard work, but we understood that with- out it, serious bodily injury could easily occur during the race. As the day of the obstacle race came nearer we received advice from the other years on such par- ticulars as how much sleep to get the night before the race, and the importance of teamwork in over- coming the obstacles. VVe didn't know whether to believe all the grim details which the second-year class Clast year's recruitsj had told us concerning the race, but the leering faces and stories of the other years soon dispelled our doubts. The day of the race came, and after changing into old clothes, smearing vaseline over our bodies in preparation for the inevitable paint we would en- counter, having the customary pictures taken, and getting a pep talk from our squadron commander, we were ready to begin. The staff-adjutant raised his blunderbuss . . . and we were off, amid a deafen- ing roar and the wild cheers of the cadet wing. I came to the first obstacle-a ditch filled with cold, muddy water. Emerging from the ditch, I crawled along another ditch-this one being filled with mud, slime and dry ice. A low tunnel was next, filled with mud. I crawled through, choking on the mud, only to be faced at the other end with a huge greased slide. I struggled, I jumped, I clawed, and finally reached the top, only to find that a long run awaited me. Over a high log and down to Kingston Bay I stumbled, my thoughts incoherent and my body aching. I plunged into the icy water, swam around some bouys, and struggled up the bank, numb and heavy from the water. I ran like an animal -not thinking-just moving out of sheer will-power, for I just had to beat that course. Over a greased log I clambered through more tunnels filled with paint, stale porridge, and dead rats, over ropes, up hills, over walls, I was growling like a rabid dog, the world no longer existed-I was in a nightmare of fatigue and nausea. Suddenly-I saw it-the finish line. Could I make it? I had to! I forced myself, I tripped, I stumbled, and then it was over! I col- lapsed on the ground, feeling as if I were going to die. I was led to a shower, and just stood under the hot water, letting it soak into my numb and listless body. I had finished the race! I felt like shouting to the world that I had made it. After we had recovered and cleaned up, we went to the gymnasium for the presentation of trophies and congratulations from the cadet wing. This being done, the cadet wing commander formally declared I,ids Off, which means that we recruits were the undisputed masters of the cadet wing for the rest of the day. This was the part of the Recruit Obstacle Race we most enjoyed, for here was our chance to treat the senior-class members like recruits and to have the run of the college. It is tradition for the recruit class to throw the cadet wing commander into the lake after the race, and we wasted no time in fulfilling this happy duty. This mission accom- plished, we went to supper and treated the seniors without mercy, making them literally bow and scrape at our feet. It was our night-no front six inches of the chair, no looking straight ahead and decorating our tunics with R.M.C. slop. It was great to feel human again! During the evening, full of a deep sense of pride and accomplishment, we hazed our 'ffavouritew seniors, most of whom understood how we felt and co- operated fully. YVe soon tired of all the frivolity, and had talks and small parties with our seniors. We came to know them as people-not as disciplinarians-and a sense of comradeship was built up. The Recruit Obstacle Race is an event which few people have gone through. We who have fin- ished it have a sense of pride and accomplishment in having gone through the course, and this memory of all the happenings prior to, during, and after the race will always remain with us, for we are RMC Cadets, and proud of it.

The final deciding points would be deter- mined by the drill competition. The morning started off well when the cadet wing looked out at the Brown- field aimed at the reviewing stand from its wheelless position on the square. Al- though it was soon moved, its presence keened an edge on the nerves of the waiting squadrons. Although Two Squadron won, it was from the third-place Four Squadron that came the deafening roar, for the right of line was theirs.

CSL's NOTE 2 RT EIL E This 'yi as a year which will long be remembered in the annals of the Stone Frigate, not because it was a particularly glorious year, but rather because it was a somewhat spectacular one. just about every- thing happened to us this year, from the first day when I was told I would have to fit 91 people into -I7 rooms, to today, when all that remain are the memories of our exploits. This year marks the first time that the Spider Squadron has been away from the Stone Frigate. Due to a cascading series of administrative miscalculations, which kept the Ifrigate undei' construction all year, we were forced to live the part of noinads. The situation was so tense at the beginning of the year, when we actually occupied all three blocks, that the idea even crossed my mind to pitch tents in Fort Frederick in order to get the squadron together. Looking back in retrospect at the year, I will have to describe it as a lean one. Despite Terry's most valiant efforts we suffered severe shortages of man- power and talent, consequently we didn't shine too brightly on the sports-field. I don't want to make any evcuses, but I ask you, Have you ever tried to teach a spider to skate? Our morale suffered a lot from the initial confusiong it was especially hard on the recruits, yy ho were expected to know Frigate history, when they didn't even know what a frigate looked like. I can only hope that the return of big Hudson to the proper side of the square next year will restore the individuality and high spirit which have always been so characteristic of the Frigate in the past. VVC were a pretty easy-going squadron this year. I suppose individuals who confuse a reasonable ap- proach with slackness might even accuse us of possessing the latter. Despite our intentions, we often had to coniproniise our easy-going nature in order to keep a good state of public relations with the boys on top. The seniors in the squadrons and myself wish next year's Ifrigateers the best of luck with this parting remark: Take it away in sixty-seven, Frigateln LASALLE No. 2 SQUADRON REAR ROW: BN Taylor, MG Gainer, GCI Adamson, KLJ Malyon, .IIR Dion, RW MacLeod, WC Gay, JAR Benoit, AP Humphreys, G Balodis, RH Auld, VP Guy, MF Nardella, GD McLean, DN Primeau.

CSL's NOTE TERRY JONES Looking back over 1965-66 one might expect some remorse at our consistent lack of athletic success - and with good reason, since in all of the important sports we were definitely edged out. Left-of-the- line squadrons always have excuses and LaSalle's is that we spent our time on more significant undertak- ings than basketball or w aterpolo. Only those who have undergone the training know the long hours required to lure a little fuzzy dog into the swimming pool, or how long it takes the same type of dog to eat two iats of peanut butter. Athletes we don't have - but we do have cadets who know twelve reccipes for VVelsh terrier, who know how to tan dog pclts, and who know how to treat dog bites. Our little furry friend arrived at the same time that our new Squad Boss rode in and threw his saddle blanket over the bookcase up in suite X of lft. Haldimand. Capt. Hart arrived shortly after the year had begun, but became very well known very quickly. Within a matter of days he was getting calls from such obscure places as L-7, Currie llall and the Adm. Orderly Room. All they ever said was TANKIfR . .Xlaybe the reason that Capt. Hart became known so quickly was because of the striking figure he made in a painter's hat, with a dog whip under his left arm and a roll of toilet paper in his right hand. Cadets of all the years worked well in the squad- ron this year, and, if we didn't win, it w'asn't for lack of a real effort from everyone. The recruits showed up as the usual mixed bag of motley civies, but our CSTO, Len Skinner, overcame their resistance to the point w here we won the Drill Competition in April, in spite of them. The two ugrey years, second and third, pitched in and helped wherever they could and are to be thanked for their support. I would like to thank all of the seniors for their co-operation and sup- port in the operation of the squadron this year. The last ones to be recognized for their efforts are the hard-working cadet officers. IQ and Fu flights were ably handled hy Kiet Mcbonald and Mike Potter, while D required two CFL's Dave Sinden and Murray Qvoodcock. Rick Potter was the Zilc who gave away leave to go with the CSA's little, white care packages. Speaking of the CSA, although he's French and doesn't know what we'te saying, l'm sure the flight runners and SDC's would like me to thank Ray for his Careful supervision of their duties. VVc have now' returned to our point of origin - sports. They were in the hands of Dave Young. Our record is no indication of Dave's efforts to put out winning teams -- you just ean't beat a fuzzy dog. As for myself, it's been a pleasure. Good luck next vear!

CSL's NOTES 1 GILLES NAPPERT The year 65-66 for the green men was not thc most successful year as far as holding the right of the line was concerned but at least we finally got rid of the habit of finishing last. Our specialty was to pull upset victories over the battling right of the line squadrons. The year was marked by a change of squadron commanders. Captain Jeep Fortier was attracted bv civv street and decided to end his military career after ten years. In February, Captain G. A. Kennedy took over and was left with the monoton- ous iob of writing assessments of the unknown sold- iers. Another incident which also happened this year was a large epidemic of spiders which forced our squadron to use only half of Fort Haldimand. Except for the seniors who were just too anxious of ending up their bachelors life before it even start- ed CJim, J.P., Andiel this year went away too fast. There was alwavs a party organized by one of the movers of the squadron Cllflike f'leavc Conroy, G. A. J. Smith, Ron Kiddl. How could you find life monotonous? It kept the morale high but it sure did not help to increase attendance on Sunday church parade. It was still a good year for drill. especially for theWing Drill Competition. Mel Spotswood and the boys put up a fine performance but unfortunately efforts were not alwavs rightly rewarded. There was also these two hours of leg-stretching three times a week, also called intersquadron sports. Led by a group of unknown athletes such as Conroy, Spotswood, Hooey, Kidd, Carrier, and Bailey, the green men were always there fighting fiercely for victory. ln closing.

In the long history of RMC the honours have never until this celebrated year been taken by No. -I Sqn. It is very difficult to know where to start in thank- ing the cadets of the squadron for the efforts put forth. The seniors no doubt deserve the bull's share of the credit. ,Each sports or parade day would be witness to the amazing sight of seniors, dragging their honey-bods out of their racks in voluntary eo-operation. The enthusiasm and example which they showed throughout the entire year deserves commendation. Nearly any night of the week, if one took the trouble to observe one could find some third or second year taking time out from Batman to organize, or re-organize some aspect of the squadron activities. Some of the wildest bashes yet had by a squadron at RMC were the net result, and a powerful spirit which ranged through all the years was very much the work of the third year. Lest the Lrocks' think I have forgotten them, rest re-assured. These No. -I Sqn. recruits were the best group in the wing. Right from the first day they could not be beaten under as a group, even by the 'Iron Mans whip, or the waters of Lake Ontario. From there they went on to clean up in the Obstacle Race, and the recruit Drill Competition, and will be no doubt a great class and squadron force in the years to come. Lastly, and on a much more personal level as well, I would like to thank the boys at the top. The 'leave card wonder' Hoser, Mac 'good book' Wall, Eas, the 'Iron IXIan', Max jackson-Stewart, and the three Flight-pigs, Cliver, Pick, and Robbie, all should re- ceive the lieartiest thanks from the squadron as well as myself. As closing note, few cadets, even those in four squadron realize the help advice, and support that we have received from the office of the Squad Boss L! CDR WA Schroeder, No doubt, with the nucleus of cadets, and the unbounded support and encourage- ment, the big four should stay on top until I come back as an Old Boy' . . . best of luck.

CSL's NOTES! TERRY DOYLE The Big Brock entered the 65-66 year with an enviable past to uphold, having finished second twice and right-cif-the-line once in the Commandant's Competition in the last three years. L'nfortunately, w'e had to accept a close second this year in the inter- squadron race after almost edging out four squadron in a photofinish. Our success was greatest in the field of sports. NVe had the highest number of rep players in the wing but VVatsi was still able to field some outstanding teams, cleaning up in track and field, football, hockey and waterpolo. However, even Iohn couldn't pull the softball or volleyball teams out of the cellar. Ken Tailspin, the squadron disciplinarian and drill master kept a tight grip on things in the squadron and wing so that he was the most beloved CSTO of all. For all his good work and efforts, Ken could not teach all the left-footers to march properly with the humiliat- ing results of two resounding defeats in the Recruit and Wing Drill Competitions. The Squadron HQ, made up of Archie, Spin, Larry lVIcPitt, Wats, and Graham, headed the bene- volent dictatorship which ruled the lower levels of the Hotel. QHa1-mony usually reigned despite occa- sional outbreaks of the Black and White Warl. My special thanks to them for their complete co-operation and support which made the year so successful. and also to the three Clflfs Pete, Pete and Paul who did such a tremendous iob. Not to be forgotten are the CI U's and senior cadets whose support helped so much. Our recruits started the year in 21 blaze of glory by winning the Recruit Tabloid and XVing Spider Race. These were their last tastes of victory, despite spirited efforts. However, they were the best sky- larkers in the College. The second and third years pretty well carried the squadron this year by their contributions to Rep teams and Inter-squadron sports. The cries of ioy voiced by the Squadron when given the Hotel as an abode died quickly when we discovered it had such modern features as bursting water pipes, year-round air conditioning without unwanted heat, and no-picture TV sets. FXL Cloutier, a grad of '62, became Brock's new Squadron Commander. Affectionately known as the Clutch , he kept a close eye on everything and pro- vided enlightened guidance. We wish to congratulate the Third Year of Num- ber Five who have been appointed beading Cadets, and especially to those who have received 4-bar positions in Wing HQ and the Squadrons. On behalf of all the Five Squadron Seniors for the support and good luck next year Number Five. 12? Q' I -if ' Q I I C. --A- ' 7 . - ,A I 'YJ R ' , ,:.- ' - g l vi i ,,,. . 5 s . .

HELLYER PRESIDENT AND CHANCELLOR Air Commodore Birchall, Colonel Sawyer, Distin- guished Guests, Members of the Faculty, Officer Cadets, Ladies and Gentlemen: Of all the duties and opportunites that I enjoy as Minister of National Defence, the highlight each year is the Graduation Ceremony and Convocation at RMC. The precision of the drill, the colour, the keen determination on the faces of the cadets excites me as if I were seeing it for the first time. It is a proud day for the graduating class and this justifiable pride is shared by your parents and friends, your profes- sors and instructors who see in you some of their own achievements, and by me as President of the College. To all of you on parade - good show, well done. To the graduating class I wish to extend by warm congratulations. To-day you have reached the pin- nacle of your academic and military careers thus far. Actually, however, it is just the end of one interesting difficult, and I hope. exciting chapter in your lives . xl ,, -V V L - .ma 1 .1 1..-- All 'ivy-.w Yws H. ,,,,'w. .1 W v 2,-,,,f r v- w se.

The pinnacle of to-day is iust the foothills with the rugged, glorious mountains vet ahead to climb. i To climb life's mountains you have all the basic tools you need, Your academic achievement is ex- cellent. You have been taught how' to learn and how to think. You have also been taught discipline - not iust the discipline of accepting orders from superior officers, though this is important, but self-discipline which compels you to do the right thing in spite of the temptations to take the easy course, ln addition, you have been taught how' to work as a team. No mountain worth climbing can be scaled alone. You must put your life in the hands of others knowing that in return they can count on your strength to lift them up. And so as we look forward to celebrating the 100th birthday of Confederation next year, we think of the mountains to be climbed. Rugged, rocky moun- tains, treacherous and difficult, but maiestie with their sparkling snow-capped peaks above the clouds. You are the team that can reach the top. You are the cream of Canada's young manhood, ready to aeeept the awful responsibility that will be yours. We have a great heritage. VVe have great tradi- tions to uphold. YVc are also engaged in a new and exciting experiment - the development of a Unified Service to carry the name Canada, whether on sea, or land, or in the air or later on in space. New traditions to be built and new problems to be solved. These are just some of the mountains which you can elimb. And when, steadfast to your College pledge of truth, duty, valour, you reach the summit and salute the flag, you can say with conviction and pride. This is my own, my native land - my Canada. 126 Itls all so very official. The mourning bands are off, the solemn duties done and Al is gone. He was a fascinating character with a wit that cut through every sort of pretention, whose presence made even Saturday morning drill enjoyable. There was something about him, something so vital and sincere that it defies definition. It could have been his sense of humour, or perhaps the zest he put into everything he did.

Above all, he was interested. No one ever argued with Al without coming away unsure of himself. He had a truly scientific mind. He thought, and thought deeply about many things. He read and he questioned. He wanted to know and to understand. This is the tragedy. Here was the potential and the verve, not just to live, but to do, to get out and get dirty, to climb mountains because they were there. He's gone and nothing will ever be quite the same again. 5 f X NX ga-1-E3-:Q-1155,-iO,i W f I X i!f XS 00 YEORD ' ' DASH f N ' REC: Ssffl W ' ! i HCVMTEQS THE MARKER Under the dynamic editorship of jerry Morgan, the MARKER, this year, attained the well-deserved praise of readers both inside and outside the Cadet Wing. Of course, there remained a few staunch icono- clasts, but it is significant to note that these people made no contribution themselves. The criticism often centred on the view that the MARKER published articles that utarnished, impaired, mangled, and brut- ally bludgeonedw what is vaguely referred to as the HCadet lmagev. Well, the MARKER is, and always has been, the Il7I0ffiL'fl1l newspaper of the cadets, if the MARKER is to present an accurate crosssection of cadet views, then rigid, arbitrary censorship must be avoided. The editorial policy of the MARKER has been to print any articles of any literary merit as long as such articles are not obscene, libellous, or seditious. In pursuing this policy, several excellent articles have appeared in the MARKER of both a serious and a humorous vein. It is difficult, if not impossible, to say which was the best contribution because there have been so many good articles. The most notable feature of most of the contributions has been their unique combination of timeliness and timelessness. Articles covering specific events Csuch as girlwatch- ing! also reflect the whole spirit of the Cadet Wing, and will therefore be appreciated long after the speci- fic occurrences toolc place. In short, the MARKER has excellently reflected the spirit of the Wing, in spite of charges that the MARKER is owned and operated by a small, subversive group of Artsmen.

Boon ROD AND GUN CLUB R The club has expanded in both membership and activities since its creation last year. Our 25 or so members this year enjoyed many successful field trips in the Kingston district. The fall season was spent mostly hunting phea- sants and ruffed grouse with Major Bull and some other sharpshooters such as Terry Enright, Bill Mc- Callum, Ted Hague, Gord Burbidge, and Bill Yerex, combining their efforts to fill the pot. Earl Morris, .jack Taynen, and Rick Guthrie all made a valiant effort but . . . The fall season was rounded off with a Bacchic feast presented by Mrs. Bull, to whom we are all very grateful. I'm sure we all remember waddling out of 5 Ridout Row wondering how We could have possibly eaten so much of that succulent pheasant, ruffed grouse and rabbit. With the winter season the pressure was put on the rabbits in the district. Ken Malyon showed the old RMC CHESS CLUB X gw , .r Q4 W ,Wk 4 ff? pros how it should be done by bagging a hat trick first time out. Also, some of the hardier members such as Larry Cassie, Ernie Hartung and Wally Staples braved the bitter cold in their search for the elusive bunnies, sometimes getting no more than some good exercise. The cold weather this spring has made the fisher- man of the club less than successful but they were still in there trying even though ice was forming on their lines as they reeled their lures and bait to the surface. Lets hope they have better luck during the summer months. Special thanks must go to Major Bull without whose interest the club would have been quite im- mobile and to Mr. Fisher for his fishing tips. We also greatly appreciate the rabbit dinners cooked for us by the kitchen staff. 6842 E. C. Hague Would you believe that all the choice thinkers at RMC belong to the chess club?

It was decided at the beginning of the year, by the executive, that the purpose of the club in 1965-66 would be to help interested cadets in their studies towards amateur operators licences. Throughout the year, both outside instructors and the cadets them- selves conducted a lecture-discussion course on radio theory, morse code, and amateur operation. As a result of this course, two cadets applied for their operators certificates. XVith an increased financial grant from the re- creational fund, the club was able to build up its 5 i 1 'H.AA.l.L.LL-L uw'-11 1:0 f '2 'F THE ELECTRO IC CLUB , VE-3-RMC H-xmh store of tools and equipment this year to the point where most members were able to find what they wanted when they wanted it. All of the tools and test equipment were available on a twenty-four hour basis to any cadet, as well as the ample working space in thc club room. ln the event that more cadets obtain their oper- ators certificate, the club also has the facilities to set up a complete amateur radio station, using the long standing and well-known call sign, YE-3-RMC. The club has had a good year, and appears to be on the come-back path. Such success can be attributed only to the support of the cadets, the support of the lilectrical lingineering Department, and the support of visitors who took their own time to guide cadets down the road towards their Amateur Operators Licences. 7060. in- E13 ag PROTESTANT CHOIR IRUNT ROXV Lenny Nlcliay, Hugh Xluntlcll, Lynn Caple, Sandy Sutherland, josh Earl, Randy Kudar, Dave Tudi SI LOXD ROXNH john Orr, Dave Dempster, lien Carter, Tony Humphreys, Terry Davies, Andy Chant, Rick Young, Terry .XlCBlll'l1Cy.

At all times thc members of the local Branch have been ready with advice, assistance, and support. The Student Section has enjoyed a moderately successful year, particularly in view of the College's rather small cnroiment. During the fall, student members enjoyed several films of general and of technical interest. A field trip to Picton was arranged to visit the appliance produc- THE X gains msn, la 'f ---.T r .

A proposed field trip to the site of Expo '67 proved to be im- practical. This trip was replaced with a Special Din- ner Night at which a guest speaker addressed the members. This event was interested and informative and was verv successful. Elections of new officers were held in May. Sawchuck, T. Keefer, A. Grice, and J. Adamson form the new executive with Savvehuck as chairman. ln addition, Sawchuek was the student representative for RMC at the EIC Undergraduate Conference held at Winni-peg during the last week in May. EA!! NORTH ATLANTK ll if I TERNATIO AL RELATIO CLUB Every now and then cadets got together under the auspices of that organization known as the Interna- tional Relations Club to discuss current events. A variety of topics were on the agenda, among them being De Gaulle, Berlin and the foreign policy of Pakistan. The club's activities were not confined to the College grounds, as cadets were invited to con- ferences at McGill, Sir George William. West Point, University of Montreal, Queenls and St. Lawrence University at Canton, New York. U.N. Assemblies, seminars, top-ranking speakers did not monopolize the attention of the delegates, for according to their reports there was always some time for social ac- tivities. ln a debate at Queen's concerning Vietnam, the RMC team demonstrated that the image of 'gentle- men cadets' as being military martinets was false, for their anti-American opponents found us using the same line of arguments as they did against them, thus pulling the rug out from under them. A special word of thanks must go to Dr. F. F. Thompson who acted as chairman. Dr. Thompson not only persuaded speakers to come to RMC but found time to drive the cadets to VVest Point. The smooth functioning of the club would not have been possible without him. R SYMPO I UM 1965-1966 The average cadet is an enlightened individual, he believes a little knowledge to be quite harmless, and. on occasion, even beneficial. ln response to this situ- ation, Symposium was organized to introduce fresh ideas to our intellectual wasteland. Under the guid- ance of College personality A. Blake Wyand, it has done its share to foster appreciation of the humanities. Lectures from as far afield as London, England, and Canberra, Australia, led a series of spirited dis-- cussions on a full spectrum of topics. Guest speakers were lively, informed, and most important, deeply absorbed with their fields of study. Notable among the successful evenings were L'lnternationalism by Mr. Brian Tunstall, a recital of new work by Cana- dian poets Tom Eadie and Tom Marshall, and an ex- pose of the inner workings of our sister Common- wealth college, the Royal Military College of Can- berra, Australia. Meetings were held on an informal basis, follow- ing a very malleable schedule tailored to the'demands of the academic year. Attendance was surprisingly good, the audience usually very keen on the topic at hand. It was not unusual for students to continue probing a speaker late into the evening. For spon- taneity and sheer interest this year's Symposium must be judged memorable. Special mention should be made of the smooth logistical organization by Paul Goineau which added to the culinary attractions of the meetings. 7113. F 1-K .-, 'J A ,, ,.' 0 gn. I 3.

We were going to prospect for coal in the Peace River pass, which was being considered as a northerly route for a second transcontinental railway. The chief of the party, a civil engineer named Davies, had worked through the pass with the government geological survey a few years earlier and had found seams of what appeared to Through the BY JOIIN S.

If the railway went that way the coal held might have great commercial possibilities. The rest of the party were Hugh Campbell, a geologist from the Dominion Coal Company, who was known as The Cap- tainng Bob Smith, a British Columbia land surveyor, in charge of surveying the coal claims: and I was the assist- ant surveyor and the moneas Qtenderfootj of the outfit. Outfitting and provisioning at the HISC in Edmon- ton, we travelled with one of the Company's winter freighters to Peace River Crossing. The distance by the winter road was about 450 miles, we left' Edmon- ton on February 27th and reached the Crossing on Nlarch I-lth-considered very good time for a freight team. Twelve miles up river from Peace River Cross- ing our freighter left us at the farm of Ali Brick and his Cree wife, where we stayed several days. The Chief bought four good Indian ponies and a couple of light bob-sleds, and hired Alexis, a Cree, to look after the ponies. Alexis spoke little English but he was a fine specimen, tall and well built, a good river- man and horseman, a real axeman, and a big asset to the party. We started up the Peace River on March 20th, taking turns breaking trail for the horses through the deep snow and it took us five days to cover the fifty miles to the post at Port Dunvegan. Prom there the going was even worse and we did not reach the HBC post of Fort St. john, about 150 miles away, until April 7th, There, Mr. Beaton gave us a good dinner of potatoes and moose meat and we thoroughly en- joyed the warmth and comfort of sleeping on the floor of his living room after the icy camps on the river. During the night a Chinook wind licked away the snow and we had good going on the ice and travelled fast to Hudson Hope. On the way we came to a settler's shack. It belonged to an English trapper, George Dickenson, who had squatted on a fine tim- bered point of land that he intended to clear for a farm. We could use another man and Dickenson decided to join us as cook, axeman, and general helper. We reached Hudson Hope on April 10th and camped on the south bank of the river, where the grazing was good for the ponies. Hudson Hope, set up in 1804 as a base for Simon Eraser's iourneys, was a very small trading outpost at the cast end of Rocky Mountain Portage, open only during the fur season. We were made welcome by Mr. lVlcDiarmid of the HBC and here, where our explorations of the Canyon were to begin, we left letters to be sent out at the first opportunity. The next day the Chief decided we should explore the Canyon on foot before risking the horses and out- fit on the ice, which was already showing signs of breaking up. We found three or four rocky islands above the entrance to the Canyon and the ice was in good condition for travelling. Through this part of the Canyon, the scenery was rough and rugged with cutbacks and some deep ravines running back from the river. lt proved a regular paradise for our geolo- gists with its many clean rock face exposures. Some miles up we passed through a very narrow part of the Canyon which was about 150 feet wide with perpen- dicular rock walls. VVC called this part the Pillar Gates on account of several rock pillars on each side. The current evidently rushed through this channel so rapidly that the ice was heaved in the centre but not broken up. Above the Pillar Cates, the Canyon widened out and the banks sloped to the water's edges and there was a nice growth of timber on the north bank. We had lunch at the mouth of a small stream flowing in from the south and here there was a cutbank of shale 400 or 500 feet high which could be seen from the Pillar Cates. About a mile farther on, around a high perpendicular point of rock, a good sized rocky island appeared in the centre of the channel. The ice seemed to be getting pretty thin at this point and there was open water between the island and the shore. Several miles beyond this we came upon the first seam of coal. lt was only 12 inches in width but appeared to be of very good quality. This find of course greatly encouraged the Captain. lt was getting late in the afternoon and we turned back to camp well satisfied with our first day up the Canyon. Next day was Easter Sunday and Mr. lVlcDiarmid had us all to dinner at the Post, where it was a treat to have real bread and potatoes after our monotonous diet of bacon, beans and bannock on the trail. In the afternoon, Alexis reported that the ponies had left their grazing grounds and had taken off down the river. Three of us took after them but the ponies had not been hobbled and, although we came up with them several times, no amount of cajoling or coaxing with proferred oats would induce them to be caught. With darkness coming on, we had to abandon them. We afterwards learnt that they kept on going until they reached their former owners above Peace River Crossing. This of course was a bad setback. We figured we had only 15 miles to go up the Canyon to the stream where Mr. Davies observed the coal seams and we had planned to use the ponies as pack horses when the snow was gone in the mountains. We had to make the best of it so we knocked the sleighs apart and put a rough platform of poles on the front bobs of each sleigh, loaded them with about 400 pounds each and hauled the outfit ourselves. This was really heavy, strenous work and it took us four days to reach the place Davies had seen the small coal seams. Our destination turned out to be a beautiful mountain stream with a nice narrow wooded valley where it entered the Canyon from the south.

The Captain thought there would be several weeks of prospecting from this campsite before we could survey any claims and it was decided to build a log cabin for headquarters. There was plenty of suitable timber on the site and it only took us two days to put up a comfortable log shack 12 feet by 16 feet with a rain-tight roof of split spruce logs and spruce bark. We used cheese cloth for the windows. It was now about the middle of April with con- siderable snow still in the mountains and the Captain decided we should prospect through the Canyon while the ice still held. We made a very early start next morning, packing enough grub to last the four of us overnight. We found the ice still very good, thick along the foot of the cliffs with here and there wide cracks in the centre of the channel. The river was open where rapids occurred but in places we could cross over safely from side to side so that we were able to prospect both banks of the Canyon. The Captain and I took one side and Mr. Davies and Bob the other. In some places, the cut- banks were perpendicular for several hundred feet clearly showing many layers of strata, mostly sand- stone, shale and slate. We found eight small seams of coal, none over two feet ten inches in width, and the Captain pronounced the coal to be of excellent tquality. This made us all happy. We lunched about eight miles up the Canyon from our camp at the mouth of a stream coming in from the south. It had cut a narrow channel in the rock not more than twenty feet in width and its banks on each side were perpendicular solid rock for at least several hundred feet in height. We started to prospect up this can- yon when we heard a roar like thunder and stopped dead in our tracks, to witness a fall of ice and rock. The sun and mild weather were getting in their work and it did not take us long to get out of that canyon. We continued to prospect through the main Can- yon and reached the west end about three o'clock in the afternoon. Here, there was quite a steep water- fall in a narrow channel between rock banks. Above this fall, the river widened and the banks had a more gentle slope so we realized we were completely through the Canyon. From all acounts, we were the only white men ever to go through the Canyon on foot. The Indians always avoided it. We returned safely to camp and were glad to get under cover as it had started to rain. This was the first warm rain of the spring and it lasted for several days, clearing the snow away rapidly. For the next few weeks, we prospected the streams and ravines for some miles from our base camp and in a cutbank of a small stream coming into the Canyon several miles east of our base the Captain found a seam of excellent bituminous coal, nine feet wide. We uncovered this seam for about 100 feet so that the Captain was able to get the strike and dip fairly accurately. After several days work the Cap- tain and Bob figured how the claims should be staked to cover as much of this seam as possible. Early in May we started the survey of the claims. The survey was real hard work and before it was over I had be- come an expert axeman. The nearest claim was over two miles from the cabin so we camped right on the job. George Dickenson had proved to be a good bush cook but our supplies were running short so every man worked on the survey. Bob Smith, thc land surveyor, ran the transit and the job, the Captain and Mr. Davies were chainmen and picketmen. Alexis. Dickenson and I were the axemen. It was tough going, up hill and down dale with plenty of big trees to cut, 'but we managed to average a mile a day of cut line. As the weather was very good during May, we finished the survey work on june 3rd. We were then faced with the problem of how to get out of the Canyon when We had no pack horses N to carry our outfit and we could see that the Canyon was full of very dangerous rapids. It was finally decided that we should build a raft, run the rapids and drift down the river to Peace River Crossing. As soon as we got gack to the cabin we started to build the raft. VVe cut the logs for the raft, selecting dry dead spruce trees wherever we could find them. The logs were approximately ten to twelve inches in diameter and we cut them thirty feet long. We could not handle logs any larger and get them down our stream. The Peace River was now in full flood and fully ten to twelve feet higher than at low water. A lovely eddy had formed at the mouth of our stream and, once we were able to get the logs into the water, we had an ideal piece of quiet water for building the raft. We had a two-inch rope. The raft, when completed, was thirty feet long and fifteen feet wide. We cut thirty logs and built a two-layer raft so that in quiet water we could ride high an dry. Boring the holes in the logs was slow work and it took us several days to build the raft. When the raft was finished, we had a staunch, strong craft, well trenailed with two-inch tough alderwood pegs and bound with three-quarter inch rope. We fashioned a long steering oar and two shorter oars, the long oar was mounted at the end of the raft and the shorter oars were mounted on each side, all very well anchored. We then loaded the raft, first we put on about two hundred pounds of sample coal from the big seam, carefully bagged and loaded in the centre of the raft. Our camp equipment and dunnage were loaded round the coal and all was covered with a tarpaulin and well lashed down. We had two collie dogs belonging to Dickenson and they were also securely tied to the raft. The river in front of our stream was running smooth and Very swi-ft C we estimated it at about ten miles an hourj and far- ther down the Canyon we could see the white waters of rapids. Monday june 7th was the day set to run the Canyon and we completed the loading and lashing and turned the bow of our craft out of our quiet eddy, homeward bound. We got under way in a happy and confident mood and in a few minutes were in the centre of the river, tearing along at a great rate. Alexis and Bob manned the steering oar and the rest of us were on the side oars, ready to obey any commands of Alexis, who had been made captain of the craft. The first rapids swept our craft with im- mense swells and we were soaked by the ice-cold waves that broke over us. The raft handled well and we passed safely the first rapids and we were still feeling quite happy, when suddenly Alexis shout- ed at us to row. VVe tore into the oars. I-Ie was try- ing to get the raft nearer the centre of the flood but we couldn't make much progress. He yelled again for everybody to grab a rope and hang on. We were not slow to obey. We went over a straight fall of about ten feet but to us it seemed at least fifty feet. NVC went over like a shot out of a gun and for a min- ute or so we were completely submerged, with a tremendous weight of ice-cold water pounding us like the hammer of Thor. We were all flat on our bellies, holding on for dear life like a lot of half drowned rats, and chilled to the bone. Our raft, of course, was heavily loaded and was not buoyant enough to rise quickly after we had gone over the falls. Consequently, the nose of the raft had shoved through the wall of water at the foot of the falls and the weight of water had kept us completely submerged. Immediately below the waterfall there was a wild stretch of white rapids and our craft got completely out of control. lt drifted broadside in the trough of the mountain-like waves of the rapids which broke over us continually. For some minutes it was utterly terrifying. However, as soon as we could get our feet under us, Alexis got the steering oar manned again, yanked the raft around, and headed us straight on into the turmoil of the rushing waters. The two dogs, which had been lashed on by their collars, had taken a bad beating and now started to howl and whine in a most doleful tune which did not help our deflated spirits. The next few miles were a success- ion of white-water rapids, roaring and swirling as if trying to tear our raft to pieces, sometimes breaking over us so that we had to cling tightly to the lash- ings. This was the worst part of our passage. After this rapids section was passed, the going was smoother as we rushed on to the narrowest part of the Canyon, which we had named the Pillar Gates. The whole volume of the mighty Peace River passed through that narrow channel between perpendicular rock walls. The channel could not have been more than 150 feet wide and the speed of the river was at least twenty mil-es an hour. The water was not rough except for long deep swells which we ro-de very nicely. The water rushed with a smooth un- dulating motion and appeared to be heaped at least four feet higher in the centre than at the sides of the Canyon's rock walls. The Gates were probably about one half-mile long and we tore along about the centre of the gorge, with the rush of water making a sort-of deep swishing sound which was no-t unpleas- ant. For the time being, we were not washed by icy waves and we could almost relax. The dogs had quit their howling and we really enjoyed this part of the run. After the passage of the Pillar Crates, we ran into a succession of white-water rapids which were not nearly as rough as the ones we had passed through. Our real problem now was to avoid running aground and being stranded on one of the small rocky islands in the channel, which had widened out very consider- ably. This took a great deal of hard rowing on the part of the crew and good steering by Alexis and Bob. We had some near misses but at last we were clear of the Canyon and opposite leludson llope. Altogether, it had taken us one and one-quarter hours to run the Canyon part of our iourney. So far as we could learn, we were the only men who had ever run that length of the Canyon. From there on, it was plain sailing or drifting down the Peace River with no rapids or canyons ahead. With a brightly shining sun and a warm june day, we soon dried out and could laugh over our experiences. But, without exception, I am sure we were all mighty thankful to be out of the Canyon of the Peace River.

Hope you like it. To please my Father I kept a diary of the trip from Edmonton to the Canyon and return. The old diary turned up in some old papers I was going through several years ago before destroying them so I had the basis for this little acount. which I really wrote for my Grandchildren, but a friend on was suggester to us by No. 499 E. de B. Panet, a class- mate of No. S09 john Leitch. Mr. Panet enclosed the following letter that he received from Nlr. Leitch: MacLea1zs Magazine read it and advised me to send it to The Beaver and they seemed rather pleased to publish it.

Formed at CMR several years hack, the story says that they were named after that mystical year three years from graduation. Few actually helieve the story, though. After a brilliant appearance at Place des Arts in Montreal and appear- ances on TY and at CHR, the ZICC folded for a year until all the participants could he reunited at RMC. This year thc group appeared successfully at two college hootenannies and did a half-hour show for Queen's Radio.

The RMC debating club has always had a repu- tation in debating circles for the unusual approach not only in the tournaments themselves but also in the recreational activities which are an intergral part of them. This year, unfortunately, the teams were not too successful in the former. The latter region, I leave to your imagination, with only one observation. A noted member of the team has acquired the nickname of Studl' Cshort for studious , of coursej. As usual RMC still ranked highly although miss- ing out on the trophies. At Sir George Williams Tournament, Dave Primeau won the award for top speaker and at St. Michael's, Randyfuit doesn't rhyme with tonic I Gynn won a trophy for his individual efforts, at Bishop's, the team of Larson and Keefer 7 went undefeatedgand at McGill, both affirmative and negative teams missed entering the finals by a small margin. The same was true at Windsor at the start of the year. Ches Brown and Randy Gynn walloped the US- MMA again this year on their home grounds and Ches' talk of Orgyville, USA hasn't been forgotten yet. Unfortunately, the next challenge debate against a military college had the opposite outcome. The Primeau-Gynn combination lost a close one to YVest Point but they can't be blamed. After all, both are romanticists and they were trying to prove love didn't make the world go round. Their hearts wercn't in it. Thanks also to Pete McCreary, Lloyd Beverly and Andy Chant, who debated well for the College on numerous occasions -Andy and Pete reaching the finals in a tournament at St. Patricks College, and to many others who helped out from time to time. CANSERVCOL Again, the class of '68 showed Why it promises to be one of the best grad- uating classes of RMC. The occasion was the annual CSC weekend. As CMR came in two-and-one-half hrs. late, those of us hosting our buds were a bit worried that there might not be any light refreshment left at the stag party which was held in the depths of Kingston that Friday night. However, such was not the case. For Saturday, sports were the order of the day, T WEEK-END with basketball, waterpolo, rifle and swimming. Saturday night, tradition was broken as the Conventional for- mal dance was replaced by a semi- formal followed by the party after- wards. Time had flown by and Sunday arrived all too soon with its after-dinner goodbyes, but class of '68 looks forward to next September anxiously. Until then, 'au revoir'.

The situa- tion provided an easy out for the guy who was too cheap to take his girl somewhere where there was a good band. Times have changed! This year was the year of the big sound. Armed with newer and louder equipment than has ever been seen at RMC, the fabu- lous Ascots bowled everyone over with such conser- vative military tunes as Papa's got a Brand New Bag , I've got my Mojo Workin ' lt's All Over THE FABULOUS ASCOTS Now'-', New Orleans , and other similar melodies. We were very fortunate this year to obtain civil- ian help in providing the blast. Sincere thanks go to drummer Gordie Haase and bass player Clint Hier- lichev who both came down from Ottawa and played for the price of the gas. Also many thanks to our lovely and talented go-go girls Carol Mark and Kay Egan, both of Queen's. Cadets in the band were Scotty Gibson Qlead guitar and vocal CPD, Pete Fosbery Q guitar and lead vocalj and Eric Nazzer fsax, mouth harp, and sometimes guitarj. In the words of our idol john Hammond, we, the Ascots would like to say that playing for you all was a reeul bawl, man!', The Recruit Cakewalk '66, besides being a hilarious success, revealed the amazing talents of some of the Class of '69 Qeg,,pie-throwing ability of certain M.C.'sJ. The skits. in keeping with the College tradition, dealt with the .Xl.l.R., the mess, the recruits' life and, with amazing accur- acy, the character of certain members of the Class of '69. The night before the Cakewalk one of the class was stowed in the sewer in front of the steps of Currie building. At the end of the skits the cake was presented to the Recruit Class in the middle of the parade square and, at the sound of the gun, the trial of wits was on be- tween the Recruit and Second Years. The pre- pared plan ofthe Recruit Class went rapidly into action as the class headed for the sewer Ctypical of that classy. RECR IT CAI EWALK '66 .., ,vw ' e -f-1-ws They succeeded in dropping the cake down the sewer to their cohort,who began to devour it while the remainder of the class lay on the sewer cover. The Class of '68 made a val- ient effort to get the coveted cake. However, the strength and ingenuity of the Recruit Class proved to be to much for them. 7194 ?cvzz'q Year after year the graduating class unite on a certain evening to pay tribute to their idol and leader, Bachus, the lordly head of the epicurian clan. This year was no exception, the wine was plentiful Cas were other more modern beverages that have been introduced since Bachus left the scenej and all those who joined in the festivities rolled in the joys of fraternization. lt is no mean task to decide which of the many fabulous parties that occured during Grad Week was the most successful but most will agree that the Toga Party was the one that they will remember the long- est. They also commented on many occasions that the ftraditional music that was supplied by the AS- COTS was one of the primary reasons why the even- ing fand early morning - and for that matter the late morningl was such an enjoyable time for all. It may seem odd to those of you who read this with the eyes of those who are outside the intimate realm of the College that the stal- Forever and ever wart gentlemen of the senior class- should celebrate one of their last nights of College life in the same manner as the ancient Greeks, how- ever you must remember that the matcs, physics, medicine, astron- omy, and other disciplines came basic principles of modern mathe- from this civilization. So w h y shouldrftjthey also learn their tech- niques of living. -7210. smug new an 744 em 5? i f , 5 Being CDO is a blast . . :Nm Hovcrcrnft -coffee shop My G0d,a grey beard!

GLEE CL B Filled with numerous new faces from Roads and C.M.R. the Glee Club was blessed with a large pro- portion of balance and talent. Singing was our aim and we never stopped-not even when trapped for an hour in a traffic jam outside Quebec City. The Glee Club was asked to participate in a joint concert cele- brating the anniversary of the Royal 22nd, Regiment. As a result of thc cocert, two other offers came to the Glee Club. The first was for a charity concert at Place des Arts in Montreal. It was the first time most of us had performed before an audience of over three thousand people. With the aid of microphones we were able to be heard over the music of eight musicians. The other offer, courtesy of Major General Turcotte, was a charity concert in Halifax. Here we were treated like royal- ty. We wanted for nothing. lt was a first-class effort on the part of our hosts. Sandwiched between these two concerts was a twofold concert in St. Catherines and in London. February saw the Glee Club give its single performance in the College. lt consisted of two numbers as an introduction to our guests, the St. Patricks College Glee Club from Ottawa. The season was rounded out with our annual concert at the Institute for the Blind. Here, perhaps, was the most appreciative audience we faced all year. Special thanks go to Alec Calder for his leadership. Mac Wall for his ability, Volker Feurstack for his organization and Dr. Diaper for his performance. x Tl' .N f YI if L X iw RALLY 1966 iii I? , ACTIVITIES SOCIALE ET RECREA TIVE Chaque annee, outre les etudes et les sports, les eleves-officiers attachent beaucoup d'in1portance aux activites sociales et recreativcs. 1965-66 fut sans con- tredit une annee bien remplie dans ce don1aine. Parmi ces activites, l'on compte les clubs recreatifs, les dances et les bals. Ces quelques pages ne presentent qu'une partie des nombreuses activites organisees par les eleves-officiers. Cette annee, plusieurs clubs formes au College meme comme le club d'eches, le choeur de chant, le club d'elcctronique, le club des debats, les relations in- ternationales, les symposiums et plusieurs autres ont connu un franc succes. Tous ces organismes contri- buerent de fagon directe at ouvrir des horizons nou- veaux, grace aux voyages at l'exterieur, aux nombreux contacts et a l'experience acquise lors de ces contacts. Ijactivite de ces clubs a aussi rendu possible un rap- prochement entre l'escadre des eleves-officiers et le corps professoral et militaire. Tous les participants meritent d'etre felicites, mais l'on se doit aussi de re- mercier sincerement les professeurs, les officiers et les cadets qui ont bien voulu donner leur temps et leur energie pour rendre ces clubs actifs et interessants. Sur le plan social, les activites en plus d'etre nom- breuses et variees, se sont averees originales et vivan- tes. La presence du sympathique Doug. Moon QCW- ROJ explique en grande partie les succes dans ce tlomainc. Son assistant l'el1 Den Nlorrou' 5' est egale- mcnt pour quclquc chose. Parmi les divcrtissements de fin de semainc, il y cut les films et les danses du samedi soir. Les films pre- sentes furent, sauf quelques exceptions, excellentsg les danses d'autre part ont souvcnt pris une tournure ori- ginale avec les ul'lU0Fl111I1Dj'H ct les danscs carrees. Plus- ieurs groupes locaux et les Ascots se sont montres ia la hauteur de la tache et nous ont offert une n1usique adaptee aux circonstanccs. lls meritent des felicitations. Nous avons eu trois bals au cours de l'annee 1965- 66 et chacun dc ces bals a remporte un eclatant succes. Le bal de la mi-novembre avait po-ur theme l'epoque feodale. l,e bal de Noel est venu ensuite clo- turer le pre111ier semestre er la fin des examens. Enfin, lors de la visite des eleves-officiers de West-Point et la victoire bien meritee des notres au hockey C8-35, un bal traditionnel a couronne la soirec. Tous ces bals ont demontre le bel esprit, l'imagination et l'enthou- siasme des eleves-officiers de notre institution. De- corations, musiquc, plats bien garnis, rien n'a ete neglige. A tous les organisateurs et les collaborateurs de ces activites, nous offrons nos felicitations et nos remercie- ments les plus sinceres pour avoir rendu notre annee scolaire aussi agreable. Ces remercien1ents vont aussi au personnel civil et militaire qui ne nous a iamais refuse ses services. P.M. Goineau. Meet me in the pool at 10:30. What is the alcohol content?

This year two plays were presented, The Salid- l10,r and Nude IfVnrbi11g Dishes, along with three hum- orous sketches hy Pinter. Soon after, with the aid of some girls from Queen's, rehearsals were in full swing under the very capable direction of Dr. Barton. Our promising start was almost halted by what is coni- monly called UCommandant's Attritionn, which de- prived us of not only our chairman but also one of our leading actors. Fortunately, after some hasty re- cruiting, we were able to find cadets to fill these positions. Before we knew it, it was curtain time, and all the iitters and butterflies of opening night were present. Nou shouldn't have clone it Dave. With our fingers crossed but our hopes high, the curtain rose on the annual production of the RMC Drama Club. To our utter amazement Cnot to mention Dr. Barton's great reliefl there were no major hitehes and the audiences, composed mainly of cadets Qnotor- ious for their cynicismj even admitted that they had enjoyed the show. Much too soon, the house lights went up and the curtain fell for the last time. The cast, still in their malce-up and costumes, started their traditional after- party with laughter, dancing, and flying champagne corks. In all, we felt it had been a successful night and we are eagerly looking forward to the next pro- duction year. N. Coyle v r I Wf x Y' 1 . 9 0 P 0 M 7 I An, xt Q X 1.

Saturday morning the sharpshooters of the Rifle and Pistol Teams of the two Colleges clashed w ith the Pointers shooting down their RMC opponents in a lively gunfight at the range under the Old Civni. The Pointers put on a demonstration which proved w hy they are consistently among the liest LYS. College teams in this sport, Saturday' afternoon the masses gathered in Currie Hall to watch the mighty wits do verbal battle. The topic debated was, Resolved That Love Makes The XVorld Go Round. This was an extremely close con- test and was a delight for the audience to watch. Con- gratulations to the Pointers on their victory here and to the RMC team which did so welll Saturday evening proved to he the turning point for R.XlCs fortunes as the Rednien of hoekev fame soundli defeated the lilaelt Knights of VVest Point, K-3. Xvest Point was strongly favoured to win, hut the undersifed underdogs wearing' Red and XVhite came through with an outstanding performance of competitive spirit and drive to upset the Pointers. The Ball that followed proved to he the highlight of the visit for niost of the L'S,Xl.X cadets. They were unaccustonied to the was in which their Canadian counterparts sought enjoyment in pre-Rall parties, mid-Ballparties and post-Ball partiesg however, it did not take thein long to adapt to the new situation. During the w eelcend, Cadets of hoth Colleges were given the opportunity of exchanging knowledge and ideas and of developing a real sense of comradeship. This year it is felt that the aim of W'est Point w eele end - To promote closer relations lietw een the two inilitarv institutions - was fullv realized. and we look forward to visiting LYSMA next year. lee ,mf 1,5 'iam 4 'im W X' Q , 9 3' ' x I H 5 - lvl...

THEY WON'T SEE A THING! lt never ceases to amaze me that the Grad Ball each year seems to he the hest that we have. It must he due to the spirit of those xvho do the decorating and their desire to see the Senior Class have a grand send- off. The theme of Fairy Tales was very aptly present- ed and each one who entered the dance floor found themselves in a land of make-believe. And why not? The Seniors have been preparing themselves to enter this lost land for several weeks.

C. jackson, B.Sc., M.Sc., PhD., D.Sc., F.Inst,P, The Class of '66 has, during its entire College career set and maintained the highest standards, not only for itself but for the entire Cadet Wing. The result is that we now com-plete one of the best years we have had at RMC. The fourth-year cadets bear full respon- sibility for the discipline, dress, deportment and train- ing in the cadet wing and the high degree of success achieved this past year bears mute testimony to their outstanding efforts. In recognition of their excellence, there has been awarded an Athlone Fellowship and 14 other prestige cholarships to such institutions as Mas- sachusettes Institute of Technology, Queen's Univer- sity and University of British Columbia.. To-day we mark another most important academic miletone in the history of the College, the granting of our first NIaster's degree. Our Graduate School pro- gram, which was started in 1964. will assist in attract- ing and maintaining a first-class Faculty which is essential in continuing our policy of the pursuit of excellence. These academic achievements, however, are only possible through the very high calibre of our academic staff, together with the full co-operation and personal interest in the College and the cadets. Dr. G. F. G. Stanley, our Dean of Arts, was elected as Fellow of the Company of Military Historians at their annual meeting in April 1966. Only two other Canadians have ever received this honour. Three members of his staff have received recognition by the Canada Council. Dr. M. R. Booth was awarded a Canada Council Fellow- ship to continue his research in British drama during his sabbatical year at Oxford, and Dr. A. Theriault of the French Department has been awarded a Canada Council Fellowship to permit him to do creative writ- ing during his sabbatical year and Profesor M. Malara has received a Canada Council Scholarship to carry COMMANDAN T S ADDRESS TO CONVOCATION -f E. Cappadocia, B.A., M.A., PhD. on his Research and Studies concerning Guy de Mau- passaut and French Society. In the History Depart- ment it is with regret that I announce the departure of Dr. Ezio Cappadocia, who has been on our Faculty for fifteen years and who has been a piller of strength. He will be joining the Faculty of McMaster Univer- sity and we wish him every success in his new ap- pointment. In the Mathematics Department, Dr. H. A. Elliot has continued to do outstanding work as a consultant and advisor in mathematics to the Ontario Curriculum Institute. Dr. M. H. Edwards of the Physics Depart- ment has brought great distinction to the College in that during his sabbatical year at Stanford University in 1964-65 he achieved outstanding success in his work on the critical point and vortices in liquid helium. Since his return to RMC he has continued his research in this field and presented a paper on the subject at the Gordon Conference in New Hamp- shire last August. He has also been invited to give a further paper at the forthcoming Conference on Low Temperature Physics in Moscow this coming summer. Dr. L. C. jackson, also of the Physics De- partment, will be leaving us this year after being on the Faculty for nine years. For the past 46 years Dr. jackson has been teaching and carrying out research in the field of low-temperature physics where he holds an international reputation and he is now returning to England where it is his intention to enioy his retire- ment. It is impossible to cover all the contributions which the Faculty have made in the fields of research and academics, or to list all their outstanding publications. Suffice it to say that their record within the academic world is an enviable one and they have set a standard difficult to equal. 1 1 A U .n 11 '1 I 1 , 4 . 1 -1111. 1 1' fb 1 1 1 1 1 . , .5 1 ' , 3 ,J 111 , 1I' ' L 1 ' ' R1 ' 1, W 1 1 yxfvyw , 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 V 1 1 , I 1 1 , 1 1 1 1 A 1 1 1 1 , 1 1 1 , 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 J 5 I , 1 1 ' 1 1 1 I If . , 1 L 1 Q1 .I 1 N 11 . . 1 , '-1I1,. .. , .

Twenty- three members attended the General Council Meet- ing, which took place all day Friday, 1 October, 1965. The Annual Meeting on Saturday morning, 2 October, with about 100 ex-cadets present, heard the Presidents report and listened to an inspiring account of the progress of the College from the Commandant.

The Commandant informed the Annual Meeting that the College cadet strength was 525, the highest on record, with a record attendance total at all three Colleges.

Kerfoot, and ex-cadets presentations were made at the dinner rather than at the Annual Meeting. THE 1965 GATHEBING OF THE OLD BRIGADE The attendance at the dinner on 1 October, was the largest since the institution of the Old Brigade, largely due to the efforts of No. 1089, C. R. Stein, who rallied the batch which entered in january 1915 and of whom four appeared, and to No. 1145, G. R. Bongard of the batch of August 1915, of whom twenty-five attended. There were fifteen who had entered the College before 1915, so that a total of forty-four sat down to dinner. In passing, the adjutant has again to thank all the old brigadiers who, although unable to come, sent regrets. These are very welcome, as they not only make it possible to keep records up to date, but they also bring the glad news that the senders are still 'in the flesh' even if circumstances prevent their attending. This year fifty-four sent in regrets, the largest number yet. No. 297, H. R. Russette, the oldest member of the Old Brigade, took the chair. The usual formalities were observed, and as usual the dinner meeting was honoured by a visit from the Commandant, Air-Com- modore L. j. Birchall, OBE, DFC, CD, ADC, who gave a brief but very interesting talk on the College as it is today. The following names of those struck off strength because of death were read: No. 450 W. B. Young Winnipeg, March 16, 1965 No. 526 A. H. Greenless Hamilton, May 21, 1965 No. 546 L. G. Van Tuyl Detroit, U.S.A., Feb. 1965 No. 549 H. L. Sherwood Vancouver, 1965 No. 559 j. A.

Cochran Toronto, May 2, 1965 OLD BBIGADE DINNER 1965 The adjutant reported that the strength of the Old Brigade is now 246, the lowest number is 297, H. R. Poussette, and the highest 1176, R. Hay. There are about twenty whose addresses are unknown, and some of these have not been heard of for many years. Geographically the Old Brigade is scattered from Switzerland to Hawaii, from Britain to Bermuda and the West Indies, in the United States from Florida to Vermont, and from New jersey to Cali- fornia. In Canada there are only three provinces in which there are no members. A motion was passed thanking the adjutant for his services and electing him to the same position for the next twenty-five years. While this period may err on the side of optimism, the recipient of the honour was deeply and humbly gratified. At the autumn convocation held the following day, two old brigadiers, No. 805, Col. C. W. G. Gibson, and No. 1137, Brigadier D. R. Agnew, both received the honorary degree of LL.D. On the march to the memorial service at the Arch the strength of the Old Brigade was thirty-three marching, and three who were on light duty. Very fittingly the honour of commanding the Old Brigade fell to No. 805, Col. C. W. G. Gibson, being the oldest marching ex-cadet who has not previously commanded. The Old Brigade feels greatly indebted to the Commandant and his staff for the excellent arrange- ments made for the dinner. No. 599, L. F. GRANT. COMMISSIONER STUART TAYLOR WOOD, C.M.G. Commissioner Stuart Taylor Wood, whose death occurred in Ottawa on january -1, 1966, graduated from R.M.C. on june 19, 1912. He was seventy-six. It was natural that he should enter the Royal North- West Mounted Police, as the force was then known, as his father was Assistant Commissioner Zachary Taylor Wood, C.M.G., who graduated from R.M.C. on August 1, 1885, and also had a distinguished career in the R.N.W.M.'P. Incidentally, he was a nephew of jefferson Davis, President of the Confederacy, and a great grandson of Zachary Taylor, President of the United States from 1849-1850. Napanee, Ont., was the birthplace of Commis- sioner Wood, the eighth Commissioner of the R.C.M.P. It was also the place of birth of another distinguished graduate of R.M.C., Major-General A. Bowen Perry, a member of the Old Eighteen , and the fifth Commissioner. john Taylor Wood, the only surviving son of the late Commissioner, is now a Corporal in the R.C.M.P. His eldest son, No. 2500, Donald, was also a graduate of R.M.C. He was killed overseas during the Second World War while serving with the R.C.A.F. Before entering R.M.C., Stuart Taylor Wood spent thirteen years in Dawson, where he attended school, learned to ride and was initiated into the lore of the North. lt was natural that he should return to the Canadian Arctic after seeing service in Manitoba, Sakatchewan and British Columbia, and active service overseas during the First World War. Five years in the Arctic, during which he made long and arduous patrols by boat and dog team, and filled a variety of offices, such as justice of the Peace, Coroner, Sheriff and Customs Officer, further developed his qualities of leadership and initiative. Such experiences stood him in good stead years later. when circumstances required fortitude, patience and sound judgement. While in command at Regina, and during the depression period, he showed conspicu- uos ability in handling the On-to-Ottawa trekkers, and was later confirmed in the rank of assistant com- missioner. Stuart Taylor Wood spent four months at Scotland Yard in 1935, studied police methods in France, Belgium and the United States, and was subsequently appointed Director of Criminal ln- vestigation for the R.C.M.P. Then followed an experience that comes to a few officers, when he was selected to head the R.C.M.P. contingent at the Coronation of Their Maiesties King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Following his appointment as Commissioner in March, 1938, an officer who had known him for a long period wrote: yVe are exceedingly fortunate in having Stuart yVood to replace such a Commissioner as Maior-General Sir james MacBrien. He may be less spectacular, but he will make up for that in his untiring zeal, and in his having at heart the best inter- ests of the Force, which is his only hobby as well as his work. Heavy responsibilities were assumed by the new Commisioner during the next thirteen years. These included security arrangements surrounding the visit of the King and Queen to Canada in 1939, police pro- tection and criminal investigation during the Second XVorld XVar, the formation of the First Provost Com- pany lCanadian Provost Corpsj for Overseas Ser- vice, the Quebec Conference, the espionage cases of 19-15--16, the guarding of vulnerable establishments, and the prevention of loss of life from fire in Ottawa's temporary buildings. Other developments to which his attention was directed included the construction of a swimming pool at the training establishment in Regina, so all recruits might become proficient swimmers, the crea- tion of a horse-breeding station, the organization of a hand, and the negotiation of provincial agreements with British Columbia and Newfoundland. The maintenance of a 'LMarine and Aviation Division for the prevention of smuggling, and plans for the Schooner St. Roch to pass through the North-yVest Passage and to circumnavigate the North American Continent were among his many responsibilities. Commissioner XVood revelled in these tasks. Yet, when taking leave of his officers at Headquarters on April 30, 1951, he quietly expressed some amaze- ment that so much had been accomplished by them. He took no credit to himself, but said he felt he could leave the Force in a high state of efficiency with the conviction there were well-trained and effi- cient officers available to continue his life's work. For his distinguished service to Canada, Commis- sioner VVood was awarded the C.M.G. in the lx1ng's Birthday Honours List of 19-13, and in 1947 the Unit- ed States Government awarded him the Medal of Freedom with Silver Palm. His interest in the R.M.C. Club of Canada, and pride in the College were maintained up to the time of his death. J. F. Grant Lieut.-General john Carl Murchie, one of Can- ada's outstanding soldiers, who served in two World Wars and was Chief of the General Staff from 1944 to 1946, died in Ottawa on March 5, 1966.

He returned to France in june 1918, and remained there until April the follow- 1019 LIEUT. GENERAL JOHN CARL MURCHIE, C.B., C.B.E. ing year. General Murchie was a graduate of the Staff College, Camberley, England, and filled a number of staff appointments at Military District No. 11, Vic- toria, B.C., National Defence Headquarters, Ottawa, and the War Office, in London. He also served as Director of Military Training and Staff Duties, and in May 1940 was appointed Director of Operations and Intelligence at National Defence Headquarters.

A total of 38 people had a very enjoyable meal and evening gather- ing. The main event of the year was the annual West- ern Canada Ex-Cadet Weekend from September 17th to September 19th which included four separate functions. The first of these was an ex-cadet dinner held at the LDSH CRCD Officers' Mess on Friday, September 17th. We were very pleased to have 55 ex-cadets and special guests attend this most memor- able dinner. Among the special guests were: Lt. Col. W. J.

With the success and interest shown in this official Western 'Canada Ex-Cadet Weekend, it is the intention of the Calgary Branch to act as host again in 1966 and even greater participation will be expected from the other Western Canada Branch Clubs. The last function of the year was the annual Christmas Cocktail Party for the serving cadets in the Calgary area. This was held on December 29th at the Queen's Own Rifles of Canada Officers' Mess, Currie Barracks. A small but enthusiastic group of ex-cadets and their wives were in attendance to greet four serving cadets from R.M.C. and their ladies. Because of the planning for and activities of the Western Canada Ex-Cadet Weekend, the R.M.C.

Vote of tbanlcs ro outgoing See1'emry- Trenszzrer It was the unanimous opinion of the meeting that the Past-President send a vote of thanks to Mr. VV. N. Smith who has been Secretary Treasurer for the past five years. b. CC7IfC7IllffI1 of College The President announced that the Kingston Branch had been invited to investigate ways of observing the College centennial and to re- port them to the parent club. c. Qzzesrioll of zlflevlzbexzvlaip Lt. D. M. Coulter put the question of mem- bership before the meeting seeking ideas on why people do not support the Club and how to improve the club membership. Much dis- cussion ensued. Some of the speakers' points follow: ll Mr. Fergus Grant spoke and echoed the Parent Club's similar concern and indicated that a detailed study is being conducted. 25 Air Commordore A. D. Ross spoke on the desirability of a newsletter or method of in- forming and inviting Ex-Cadets to College functions such as the West Point Game. 35 Air Commodore L. hl. Birchall spoke say- ing that he felt that the college news and the word must be spread around. He felt that the post-war graduates are now becoming more interested in the College and it should cause a growth in membership. -lj Mr. T. SGA. Phelan requested a nominal roll of Kingston Branch club members. The Pre- sident said that one was currently being pre- pared and would be sent to members in the near future. d. C07lI7l7z'l7Zdl17If,S Thanks ll AXC Birchall expressed his personal thanks and that of the College to the Kingston Branch club for its support of the College's activities and of his tour as Commandant. Zj AIC Birchall also felt that the Kingston Branch alone should not be bearing the brunt of the centennial plans but that there should be a committee from the parent club, the College and Kingston branch. e. There was an unanimous expression of thanks from those present to AIC Birchall as Com- mandant for his support of the Kingston Branch. ADJOURNMENT 12. As there was no further business it was moved by No. 2973. Xlaior R. VV. Bull and seconded by No. 3365, Mr. T. G. Phelan that the meeting adjourn. Carried. 2859 j. G. Pike, President 5533 1. G. Allen, Secretary-Treasurer MONTREAL BRANCH As President of the Montreal Branch it is my plea- sure to report to you on the activities of the preced- ing year. The year was an active one, with your Executive acting on several items placed before it at the last Annual Meeting. A memorial window was presented to RMC from the Montreal Branch at the Ex-Cadet Weekend last fall. This window, showing the crests of Canada, the Provinces and Territories with the inscription O Canada, we stand on guard for thee Don des Anciens du College section de Montreal, 1965 is located in the South stairway of Yeo I-Iall. The Annual Dinner was held at the St. james's Club on April 23. 1965, with 94 ex-cadets and guests in attendance. I would like to express my thanks to No. 1518 john MacDonell,who again made it possible to have enioyable evening. VVith a large group of ex- cadets now living in Montreal I feel that the numbers at our Annual Dinners should be greater. If you have any suggestions about how these dinners may be improved to attract more ex-cadets,I am sure the new Executive would welcome them. The Montreal Branch received an invitation to attend a ceremonial parade at CMR on May 9, 1966. Unfortunately, we were unable to give adequate notice to the membership, with the result that the parade was poorly attended. It was a privilege and an honour for your President to inspect the cadets, and I hope that at future functions at CMR the Branch may be better represented. Another item discussed at the last Annual Meeting was that of Social functions, to create additional in- terest in the Club for all members but particularly for the post-war ex-cadets. With this view in mind, a Buffet Dansant was held in September at College Militaire Royal de Saint-jean. This enjoyable affair, although very well received by those who 'were there, was not well attended and did not attract the post- war ex-cadets in large numbers as had been hoped. It will be up to this year's Executive to decide wheth- er or not a similar function should be held again. Again, as in former years, a Christmas Reception for ex-cadets and cadets on leave was held at Molson's Brewery. VVe are deeply indebted to those ex-cadets at Molson's for offering their excellent facilities to us year after year. This year well over 80 cadets in- dicated that they would attend, thus showing how popular this event has become. Your Fxecutive was asked by the College to as- sist the RMC Glee Club in arranging a program in Montreal. Through efforts initiated by J. P. E. Ber- natchez and Secretary-Treasurer R. R. Naudie, the Glee Club sang at the Military Band Concert held last fall at Place des Arts. Activities that your President attended or was in- vited to attend on behalf of the Branch included the graduation exercises at CMR, the annual dinners of the Ottawa and Toronto Branches and the CMR ex- cadet Club annual reunion. I may add that I had the pleasure of meeting Pierre Fortier, their President, who accepted our invitation to attend the Buffet Dansant. .llevzzbersbip Active membership in the Montreal Branch for 1965 was 199 ex-cadets. VVith over 450 on our mailing list, this number is inadequate. Last year our membership was 235, a decline of about 15 per cent. This decline may be in part due to the increase in dues, but I feel it shows more a general apathy among ex-cadets. We must endeavour to increase our mem- bership so that the Branch is more representative of the ex-cadets in the Area. FTIZLYIICGS The Secretary-Treasurer will report on the fin- ances of the Club. Due to the large expenditure for the Memorial window and the loss on the Buffet Dansant, our reserves have been somewhat depleted. Your Executive requested to the Parent Club that the Branch dues be increased to 33.00 per year without increasing the total dues charged to the ex-cadets which are at present 1515.00 a year. This increase is required not only to build up our reserves but also to pay for increased mailing costs. Unfortunately, this request was turned down but the whole dues' structure is being examined by the Parent Club with definite proposals to be presented to the General Council in the fall. Parent Club It is the intention of the Parent Club to issue, with the annual bills, a brochure on the Foundation Scholarships. This brochure was prepared by the Montreal Branch, to be used in publicizing the scholar- ships. You will be interested to know that new brochures on the Colleges have just been printed and they are available at the local recruiting centres. RMC Foundation As of February 7, 1966, 411 donations have been received, totalling 15151,149.00. The Montreal Branch has collected 854,572.00 from 118 donations. The success of the Montreal Branch campaign has been largely due to the Chairman, Brig. Archer, and J. Packham, Chairman of the Special Names Committee. Deaths I have to record, with regret, the following deaths during the past year: 2167 L. J. Lagimodiere Lt. Col. J. G. Gibson RR 26 R. A. Stikeman 1756 F. B. Rolph A CA'll0 LL'1CdgG7lIG72fS It is now my pleasure to express thanks to those who have done so much for the Branch during the past year. To all the members of the Executive, Secretary-Treasurer R. R. Naudie and members J. P. F. Bernatchez, G. D. McCarter, J. H. Graham, M. E. Paradis, Jules Morazain, P. A. Preville and to Brig. Archer, Chairman of the Branch Committee for the RMC Foundation and his committee members. Respectfully submitted, 2882 JOHN R. WATERSION, President-1965, Montreal Branch R.M.C. of Canada. OTTAWA BRANCH Commandants of the three Canadian Services Colleges honoured the Ottawa Branch at its Annual Dinner on November 10, 1965. This was held at the Royal Ottawa Golf Club for the fifth year in suc- cession, and was well attended. As the Commandants of le College Militaire Royal de Saint-Jean and Royal Roads were scheduled to attend the Advisory Board meeting in Kingston the following day, they were in- vited to participate with the Commandant of the Royal Military College of Canada at our annual gathering. Although the Commandants have been guests of the Ottawa Branch at its Spring Cocktail Party during each of the last three years! arranged to coincide with their annual conference in Ottaway this was the first occasion on which the views of all three could be presented to a group of ex-cadets. Thus, it was a unique event. Most interesting addresses were delivered after dinner by Air Commodore L. J. Birchall, Col. J. Ar- mand Ross and Group Captain Douglas B. Wurtele, each of whom set forth their views concerning the respective roles of R.M.C., C.M.R. and Royal Roads. The Commandants illustrated the inter-relationship of these Colleges, discussed their development from early days, differences in character, and the influence of each on the Officer Cadets who are being trained to participate as a team in the Canadian Forces. James B. Cronyn, President of the R.M.C. Club of Canada, outlined recent developments in its structure, and efforts to exert greater influence across the land as an alumni organization. Their respective presentations were inspiring. The succeeding panel discussion enabled the Commandants and the Club President to answer many productive inquiries. Although no effort was made from the chair to impose closure, a motion emanated from the floor that further discussion be halted at eleven o'clock. It might have continued until the small hours , as further elucidation was sought con- cerning the three Colleges. This was one of the most interesting meetings of the Ottawa Branch, for which we are grateful to the three Commandants. It was unfortunate that the attendance was not even larger. Absentees missed a good gathering. Other guests welcomed at our Annual Dinner were John R. Waterston, President of the Montreal Branch, and Dr. John G. Pike, President of the Kingston Branch. VVe missed the presence of Colonel W. R. Sawyer, Vice-Commandant and Director of Studies, who was completing arrangements for the Advisory Board meeting the following day, and Lieut.-Col. T. F. Gelley, Secretary-Treaurer of the Parent Club. Amzzml Meeting-The Annual Meeting, which followed the discussion period, was brief, as material normally embodied in the President's Report was re- produced in a series of news letters issued during the year. The Nominating Committee, comprising Col. H. T. Fosbery, Lieut.-Col. R. J. Smallian and Air Vice Marshal F. G. Wait, submitted the following slate of officers for 1966, which was approved: Past President, No. 1251 Dr. G. D. W. Cameron President, No. 1429 J. Fergus Grant Vice-President, No. 2165 Assistant Commissioner C. N. K. Kirk Secretary-Treasurer, No. 3291 SXL. C. W. Kaip Associate Secretary, No. 4132 C. Jay Kurtz Additional Representative on General Council, No. 90 CRCNCJ J. F. Frank. Service Representatives: Royal Canadian Navy, No. 2444 Cmdre. John A. Charles Canadian Army, No. 2319 Brig. Douglas W. Cun- nington Royal Canadian Air Force Members, No. 3316 SIL. George R. Skinner, No. 4837 FXL. Harvey P. Nielsen, No. 3513 FXL. John W. Storr, No. 261 KRRJ Walter B. Tilden EX-Officio, No .2691 Major J. Fergus Maclaren, First Vice-President of the Parent Club. Approval was provided for an increase in branch club dues from 352 to 353, if the financial situation in early January necessitated further financial support. The President expressed the hope that it would be possible to hold the linen, especially as Parent Club dues have been increased. The paid-up membership for 1965 was approxi- mately two hundred, which was considered satisfac- tory under the circumstances. Slightly more than one-quarter of this membership are post Second World War ex-cadets. The corresponding paid-up membership for 1964 was 250. The decline is at- tributed to postings and deaths, and possibly the higher Parent Club dues. Thirty-two members of the Ottawa Branch have pledged 310,370.00 to the R.M.C. Club of Canada Foundation. Vice-Admiral H. G. De Wolf, former Chief of the Naval Staff, and a member of the Ottawa Branch, has succeeded the late Vice-Admiral H. T. W. Grant as a Patron of this Foundation. The President recorded with regret the death in 1965 and January 1966 of the following members of the Ottawa Branch: No. 858 Henry Cichele Lefroy, Mar. 2, aged 75 No. 708 Brig. A. Victor Tremaine, Mar. 6, aged 76 No. 749 General H. D. G. Crerar, Apr. 1, aged 76 Vice-Admiral H. T. W. Grant, Apr. 1, aged 66 No. 6229 Lieut. E. J. P. Carson, May 22, aged 23 No. 833 Charles H. B. Garland, Aug. 16, aged 72 No. 825 Commissioner Stuart T. Wood, Jan 1966, aged 76. .4, Cocktail Parties-The Spring Cocktail Party was held in the R.C.A.F. Ottawa Officers' Mess on June 9, when the Commandants, Vice- Commandants, Directors of Studies and Registrars of the Canadian Services Colleges were meeting in Ottawa. Among those present were: Air Commodore L. J. Birchall, Commandant, R.M.C., Captain VV. P. Hayes, RCN., Commandant, Royal Roads, Colonel J. Armand Ross, Commandant, C.M.R., Colonel W. R .Sawyer, Vice- Commandant, R.M.C., Wing Commander L. Spruston, Vice-Commandant, Royal Roads, Dr. Eric S. Graham, Director of Studies, Royal Roads, Dr. R. E. Jones, Registrar, R.M.C., Lieut.-Colonel. J. M. Brownlee, Staff Adjutant, R.M.C, bl. M. C. Meiklejohn, Regis- trar-designate, Royal Roads, and Captain R. W. Timbrell, RCN, Director, ROTP Plan, Canadian Forces Headquarters. During the evening, the Sword of Honour award- ed to No. 913 Battalion Sergeant Major C. B. R. Mac- Donald was presented to Air Commodore Birchall, and will be placed in the R.M.C. Museum. The presenta- tion was made by Lieut.-Col. D. C. MacDonald in memory of his brother, and on behalf of his niece, Miss Kathleen joan MacDonald. Members of the Executive Committee of the Parent Club were also guests of the Ottawa Branch, following a luncheon meeting at the Rideau Club, and a two-hour session with the Hon. Paul T. Hellyer, Minister of National Defence, and the Hon. Leo Cadieux, Associate Minister of National Defence. Present, other than members of the Ottawa Branch, were: Major Guy Savard, President of the Parent Club, james B. Cronyn First Vice-President, Lieut.- Col. T. F. Gelley, Secretary-Treasurer, C. J. Ber- mingham, Thomas C. Keefer, Hugh S. Morrisey, Lieut.-Col. P. T. Nation and john R. Waterston. The final event of the year was the Christmas Cocktail Party, held on December 29 in the R.C.A.F. Ottawa Officers' Mess. This was a happy gathering, which lasted until ten o'clock and attended by two hundred persons, including twenty Officer Cadets and their girl friends. Seventy-five copies of a new brochure concerning the Canadian Services Colleges were made available to members. This is well illus- trated, in colour, and was favourably received. As the undersigned embarks on his fifth term as President of the Ottawa Branch, he takes advantage of this opportunity to express appreciation to fellow members of the executive for their support during the past year, and to the paid-up membership who render possible the continuation of an active branch. january 8, 1966 sl. FERGUS GRANT CNo. 14295, President Ottawa Branch. QUEBEC BRANCH The Quebec Branch found it impossible to ar- range for an annual meeting in early 1966. The 1965-66 officers will continue to act until arrange- ments can be made to have a good local turnout for an annual meeting. TORONTO BRANCH Presidentis Report, 9 February, 1966 Mewzbevfsbip The estimated number of graduates in the Tor- onto area, including persons who have attended a service college long enough to qualify as ex-cadets, is estimated to be about 430 persons. Of these are paid up members of the R.M.C. Club of Canada and members of the Toronto Branch. This situation can hardly be termed satisfactory. While it might be said there should be 430 active members, this is Utopian and difficult of achievement. Nevertheless, there is room for improvement, and perhaps an active membership committee is something to be considered by the incoming Board of Directors. Our energetic Secretary has been trying hard to keep the roster of ex-cadets living in the Toronto area up-to-date, but it is a difficult task. There are at least 50 changes each year due to deaths, changes of address and trans- fers in and out of the city. Executifve During the year your Executive met four times and you were represented at the General Council Meeting of the Parent Club in Kingston on October lst last year by your Past President Major Keefer, your Secretary, Major Bennett, as well as J. A. Wright and your President. Ezltermivzvlzerzrs Annual Dinner: The Annual Dinner was held at the Rosedale Golf Club on April 28, 1965, courtesy of No. 1624 Major G. C. Trent. Immediately before the dinner your Branch, represented by members of your Executive, was host to members of the Old Brigade at an informal recep-- tion. About 15 members turned, out. 'This was a popular event and is worth continuing. The dinner was attended by 116 members. This was down considerbly from the previous year when a total of 168 members and guests attended. The Club contacted for a minimum attendance of 140. Your Executive is at a loss to explain this sizeable drop-off. The date was the same as the previous year, the location the same, notices were out in good time, and a telephone committee was at work. The cost of the dinner was raised to 156.00 from 35.00. It is hard to think that this is the reason for the reduced attendance. Our guest speakers at this function were No. 2364 Air Commodore L. j. Birchall, Commandant of the Royal Military College, Kingston, and No. 2351 Major Guy Savard, President of the Royal Military College Club of Canada. Christmas Dance: On December 29, 1965 your Branch was host to officer cadets and their lady friends at a dance held in the ballroom of the Granite Club. 153 couples at- tended, of who about 100 were cadet couples. This entertainment was certainly popular with cadets. As an entertainment for cadets it was a complete success. As an opportunity for cadets to get acquainted with ex-cadets and vice versa, it was a failure. Visit to R.M.C. Kingston On the weekend of May 15-16 the Toronto Armed Forces Recruiting Office aranged a visit to R.M.C. Kingston for ex-cadets and others whose sons might be interested in attending a services college. Toronto Branch co-operated in this undertaking-No. 2195 Cdr. H. U. Ross acting as Club liasion. Trans- portation and lodging was provided free of charge for a group of 34 fathers and sons from Saturday morning until their return Sunday evening. Prizes For many years now your Club has been donat- ing a gold watch as a prize to the graduating cadet selected for outstanding performance in drills and exercises. The manner in which this prize was given in previous years left something to be desired. My predecessor observed that the winner in 1964 was presented with an envelope which presumably con-1 tained a chit entitling the bearer to visit Kinnear Sc d,Esterre in Kingston and select his own Watch. In the year that followed attempts were made unsuccess- fully to have your prize presented to the winning cadet by a representative of your Branch. We have not been successful in selling this proposal to the Commandant, who pleads that it just was not possible to have individuals from the audience trooping up to present prizes. Last May a wrist Watch was select- ed by the staff in Kingston and was suitably engraved with the names of the winner and the donor. The prize was, I believe, presented on your behalf in the usual manner at the prize giving. General At this point I would like to pay tribute to all members of the Executive who assisted me in carry- ing on the activities of the Branch during the past twelve months. In particular I would like to mention the outstanding contribution of our Secretary-Bill Bennett and our Treasurer-David McPherson, to the well being of the Branch. Theirs has been an onerous and often thankless task. Not only has Bill looked after a lot of secretarial work for the Branch, but along with Alan Ball has been doing a terrific job on the Foundation for the Parent Club. David Mc- Pherson has spent untold hours keeping our finances straight. I am amazed at the bookkeeping and mail- ing effort necessary to put on a function such as the Annual Dinner, or a dance. To both these gentle- men in particular, and to the other members of the Executive Committee on your behalf I say thank vouf, UNITED KINGDOM BRANCH The Annual Report from the United Kingdom will arrive too late for the 1966 issue of the Review. The Secretary-Treasurer, Ed. Bobinki, is busily pre- paring for his transfer to Manila. His position is being taken by Major Ken Perry, but the Branch mail- ing address will remain the same. The continuing president is Major-General M. P. Bogert. VANCOUVER BRANCH The Secretary-Treasurer, Tom London, reported that protracted absence from the city of some of the officers of the Branch meant a postponement of the Annual Meeting. The meeting will take place in November 1966. VANCOUVER ISLAND BRANCH The Annual Meeting took place on 23 February, 1966. The following officers were elected: President, No. 1318, VV. N. Chater Vice-President, RCNC, CDR, N. S. jackson Secretary, No. 2982, E. R. Chappell Asst. Secretary, No. 3635, FXL J. R. Fournier. The report of the Branch will be published in the 1967 Review. XVESTERN ONTARIO BRANCH Your President regrets to have to inform you of the deaths of two members, No. 546 Lt.-Col. L. G. YanTuyl and No. 1453 Major K. F.. Fleming. Arrangements were made for a Cocktail Party for 27 December. Visiting cadets in the London Area were invited to attend. Annual Dinner - 23 April, 66. Plans were made to hold the annual dinner on the 23rd of April. No. 297, Captain Pousette, after the last dinner, wrote Dear Don . . . the dinner was most enjoyable. I was in bed by 3, and at church at 8, so it evidently rejuvenated me. However, too few replies were received for the function to be held. A copy of the Newsletter was sent to the Toronto and Hamilton Branches in the hopes of helping es- tablish closer relations. The RMC Foundation Many of you have received letters from the Foun- dation but have not yet been approached for a dona- tion. The Western Ontario Branch was considered by the Executive to cover too large a territory for person-to-person appeals, therefore you will find en- closed, some literature and a pledge card for the Foundation. The Executive urge you to read the lit- erature, and then to do your part to make the Foun- dation a success. The response of the Club will be watched by outsiders, Cadets and young Ex-Cadets alike. The Club can earn their respect by showing it is capable of carrying out projects of value to the RMC. The President, Vice-President, together with Mr. P. A. DuMoulin and Mr. j. H. Moore have form- ed a Special Names Committee for the London area, but for the majority of the Branch members, this will be your one chance to answer the appeal. Let's put our Branch right of the line. As an aside, the Secretary is now studying for his Masters degree in Business Administration at the Uni- versity of Western Ontario. He was pleasantly sur- prised to find the following list of Ex-Cadets at the Business School: No. 3888 Bill Peterson No. 4960 Pete Scholz No. 4435 Mike Stedman No 4975 Geoff Walsh No. 4518 Greg Welch No 5216 Dave Springste No. 4808 Bruce Waters No 5233 john Buchan No. 4891 Wait Cotie No. 5474 Bob Hasler The 1 RCR has gone to Germany and most of the Fx-Cadets at RCAF Centralia have been transferred. An attempt will be made to find all the new serving Ex-Cadets in the area, in the hope of getting them to attend our Branch Meetings. Presiiievlr - No. 2341 Major Don MacMillan Vice-President - No. 2547 Chuck Way SCC.-'TI'L'fI.S'Il7'C7' - No. 5517 Skip Schelter WINNIPEG BRANCH The Annual Meeting and Reception of the Win- nipeg Branch was held on 28 December, 1964, in the Wardroom, at H.M.S.C. Chippawa. There were seventeen ex-cadets and eleven serving cadets present. No. 2621, james J. Boyd, the President of the Branch, addressed the meeting and welcomed the serving cadets to the reception. At Mr. Boyd's request No. 950, L. R. Reid, being the senior ex-cadet pre- sent, also addressed the meeting briefly. Reports were received from the senior cadets from Royal Roads and R.M.C. No representatives to the General Council have been appointed. The present officers will remain in office for another year. The Branch Club dues will remain at 81.00. ' J. j. Boyd will handle any Foundation Fund Scholarship business which may arise. QXXIARV A CLUB Cb g ig C4 NAD?

CALL TO ORDER The President, Major Guy Savard, took the chair and called the meeting to order at 9.40 a.m. There were 99 members present. COMMANDANT,S ADDRESS The President welcomed the Commandant, Air Commodore L. J. Birchall, OBE, DFC, CD, ADC, CCollege No. 23645 to the meeting and explained that the 1966 arrangement of the weekend pro- gramme with Convocation beginning before the Annual Meeting would likely be over made it ne- cessary for the Commandant to leave after his address to take on his Other duties. The Commandant warmly welcomed the ex- cadets present and invited them to attend all cere- monies and to make use of the facilities of the Senior Staff Mess. He reported that the cadet strength of 525 set a new record. The recruit class numbered 75. The graduating class is the largest to date. Thirteen top academic honours had been won, including a Rhodes Scholarship, Imperial Oil Scholarship, Mc- Laughlin Scholarship at Queen's, and other awards at various universities. These awards attested to the quality and devotion of the teaching staff. In ath- letics the cadets participated in some 17 intercollegiate competitions and had won 8 championships, 5 seconds and 2 thirds for a splendid record. ln intramural sports several long-standing College records had been broken. R.M.C. came second in the Lafferty Cup Competition, a very good showing indeed. fHe referred to the honour that had come to OIC Prestley in being chosen one of Emory's four-man bob- sledding team which won the World Championship in Switzerland. The new dormitory, Fort Champlain, was now open. It had 208 rooms, to bring the room accom- modation to 585. The cadets referred to this new dormitory as the Sheriton-Champlain. The Governor- General had graciously consented to lay the corner stone of this fine building on 14 October. Fort La- Salle, at one time known as Fort Frederick Dormitory, was being renovated. Work was progressing on the refacing and renovating of the Stone Frigate. Academic facilities were severely strained. A new instructional building was desperately needed. He was glad to announce that a 890,000 development plan had been approved and appropriations prepared for a new engineering complex. He paid tribute to the three distinguished men who were to receive honorary degrees: Mr. Iustice Abbott, who had set up the Lett Committee, Mr. justice Gibson CCollege No. 8055, who was the last Minister of National Defence for Air and who had supported the College reopening, and Brigadier Don Agnew CCollege No. 11375, the Commandant who had reopened the College. He announced the opening this year of a gradu- ate school on a limited basis. The first Master's degrees would be conferred at the Spring Convo- cation. He referred to the success of the second annual western ex-cadet meeting in Calgary on 17-19 Septem- ber and gave praise to the president of the Calgary Branch, J. M. Willsher, and his officers for the excellent organization of the meeting. The R.M.C. Museum had over 23,000 visitors, and many valuable and historical gifts had been made to the Museum, notably the Crerar military collection and papers. The Conimandant stated that this was his last official address to a Club annual meeting. He was now in his third year. Considerable progress had been made. He had found his job challenging and rewarding. He expressed his gratitude to the preced- ing Commandants, the staff of the College, and the Club for its co-operation and support. The President expressed the appreciation of the Club to the Commandant for his kindness and that of his staff in making College facilities available. He had achieved much for the College and he had given new life to the Club as well as to the College by his enthusiasm and vitality. MINUTES-Adoption of Minutes of the last Avzmml Meeting It was moved by Frank G. Wait, and seconded by J. C. Dumbrille, THAT the Minutes of the Annual Meeting of 1964 be taken as read and adoptedw. Carried. ANNOUNCEMENTS The President made the following announce- ments: Cal Ceremonial Parade at 2.00 p.m. Cbj The toast to the Queen would be drunk im- mediately after grace at the Annual Dinner. Ccj Presentation of gifts to the College would be made at the Annual Dinner rather than at the Annual Meeting as formerly. Cdj The EX-cadet Parade to the Arch would form up at 10.40 a.m. He urged all to be present. Cej A question period would take place immediately after the Annual Meeting. This would give an opportunity for the ex-cadets to enquire about Club matters, changes at the Colleges, and new developments. HONORARY LIFE MEMBERSHIPS-Election It was moved by R.C.A. Waddell, and seconded by W. H. T. Wilson, 'LTHAT No. 1557, Colonel W. R. Sawyer, OBE, ED, PSC, RMC, M.Sc, Ph.D, LLD, whose name has been proposed by the General Council, be elected an Honorary Life Member of the R.M.C. Club of Canada in recognition of his long and distinguished service both to the Royal Military College of Canada and to the Club. Colonel Sawyer completes thirty years as a member of the faculty of R.M.C. and eighteen years as Vice Commandant and Director of Studies . PRESIDENT'S REPORT FOR 1964-65 The President, Maior Guy Savard, in his opening remarks welcomed the members to this eighty-third annual meeting of the Club. R.M.C. CLUB OF CANADA FOUNDATION The Foundation Committee in Toronto, under the joint chairmanship of Brig. Frank Lace and Brig. Denny Whitaker, had accomplished a splendid iob of organization and launching of the campaign. Bro- chures and letters had been sent out to all ex-cadets directly or through the Branch Clubs, and donations were coming in. Brig. Lace was present and would give an account later of Operation Foundation. FIRST FOUNDATION SCHOLARSHIP Only one scholarship was warded this year, the first, to Officer Cadet VVilbert Bush, a Toronto appli- cant who was selected for Royal Roads. He was a good all- round applicant with an honours standing in his academic work. EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEETINGS Two meetings of the Executive Committee were held, on 29-30 january at R.M.C. and on 9 june, in Ottawa. Normal Club business was taken care of and in addition extraordinary business such as the Founda- tion Campaign, scholarships, and broadening of the terms of service for graduates were studied. A meeting of the Executive with the Hon. Paul Hellyer, Minister of National Defence, took place in the Minister's office in Ottawa on 9 june. The pur- pose of this meeting was to establish closer relations with the Minister and to exchange views on how best the Club could increase its usefulness in relation to the Colleges. The Minister took under consideration the proposal to broaden the terms of service for graduates to include External Affairs and Commerce departments and the government scientific organiza- tion. It was a very fruitful and cordial meeting. MASTER SITE PLAN FOR R.M.C. The reinstitution of the Master Plan, delayed during the recent manpower study, was now a fact. A Toronto engineer firm had been appointed at a cost of approximately 390,000 to draw up a master site plan for the College. CONSTITUTION REVISION The Constitution of the Club was in process of revision and was in the capable hands of DI. E. Pepall, a past president. The revised text will reflect the new tri-college character of the Club. It will be sub- mitted to the Annual Meeting of 1966. NEVV FORMAT NEVVSLETTERS An attempt was made this year to publish more attractive newletters, with special news items on cadet accomplishments. Sincere thanks are due to john Birks of Montreal who arranged the format of the newsletter. MEMBERSHIP It was anticipated that the new scale of fecs would cause a drop in membership. It was encourag- ing to see so many post-VVorld War II graduates at the meeting, but the Club was not attracting into membership the numbers of post-war graduates it should. A special study will be made to find out what should be done to increase membership. FINANCES On the reverse of the agenda sheet will be found the summarized financial statement of the Club. The assets of the Club amount to approximately 318,300 There was a surplus of receipts over expenditures of about 15580 for the year. HISTORY OF R.M.C. Dr. R. A. Preston, formerly of the History Department at R.M.C. and now at Duke University, has about finished his research and accumulation of material and plans on returning to Kingston next summer to complete the writing of the History. R.M.C. MUSEUM LCDR W. A. Schroeder, CD, RCN, has taken over the curatorship of the Museum from Major Mal- colm Ferguson. Several valuable and historic gifts have been made by ex-cadets to the Museum this year. Tom Brock, our representative on the Museum Com- mittee, has again rendered yeoman service. CANADIAN SERVICES COLLEGES ADVISORY BOARD The Advisory Board has been called to meet at R.M.C. on 12-13 November. We are now represent- ed by Dr. Ernie Crowe, LCDR jim Lattimer of Montreal and Mr. Adam Zimmerman of Toronto. This is the first time that the Club has had three representatives. WESTERN EX-CADET REUNION-Calgary A very successful meeting of ex-cadets in the west was held at Calgary on 17-18-19 September, coinciding with the annual football game between R.M.C. and the University of Alberta Q'Calgary campusb. Our thanks are due to j. M. Willsher, jim Corbett and Major J. D. Kerfoot for their efforts to make the event an outstanding one. GENERAL The President, as has been his custom at all meet- ings since taking office, gave a resume of his remarks in French. He spoke briefly about the ex-cadet club organized at Le College Militaire Royal de Saint jean and pro- mised the support of the R.M.C. Club. The Montreal Branch keeps in close touch with the C.M.R. Club and the Branch officers attend functions at C.M.R. He stated that he was particularly anxious that the ex-cadets present should demonstrate their interest in happenings at the College by asking questions dur- ing the question period. It must be realized by all that the service training and the educational pro- gramme were now geared to new standards and developments. The academic honours won by gradu- ates since R.M.C. has been awarding its own degrees in Arts, Science and Engineering and the good reports from the Services were ample evidence of the success of the tri-college and tri-service systems. APPRECIATION I wish to express my sincere thank to the officers of the Club, especially to the two vice-presidents, .I B. Cronyn and J. F. Maclaren, for their help and co- operation. It has been for -us a busy year. FINANCIAL REPORT It was moved by R. C. A. Waddell, and seconded by W. H. T. Wilson, THAT the Financial Report for the year 1964, as properly audited and accepted by the General Council and summarized for this Annual Meet- ing, be adopted and filed. CARRIED R.M.C. CLUB OF CANADA FOUNDATION The President called on Brig. Frank Lace, co- chairman with Brig. Denny VVhitaker, to report on the Foundation Campaign. Brig. Lace expressed the appreciation of the co- chairmen to the campaign workers at the head office in Toronto and in the Branches. Major A. W. S. Bennett and Major Allen Ball, the two secretaries at campaign headquarters, were endeavouring to keep the costs of the campaign to 222, of the estimated objective. The Foundation is the most important develop- ment in the history of the Club. A brochure outlin- ing the purposes and objectives of the Foundation had been distributed to all ex-cadets. No educational insti- tution has as loyal a group of alumni as have the Services Colleges. This annual reunion is surely an indication of the depth of that loyalty. The Founda- tion is a source of strength and gives the Club a sound reason for its existence. R.M.C. has produced much more than its fair share of leader in military and civilian life. Since it has obtained its degree-granting authority, its graduates have won a remarkable number of scholarships. There has been criticism that the Colleges, being government supported, do not need a Foundation. This is not true. Every university in Canada receives a very large proportion of its revenue from govern- ment. Every university, in addition, has alumni assist- ance. In the U.S.A., as of 30 june, 1965, some 65 colleges have endowments of over four billion dollars. Harvard alone has one billion. McGill has 85 million. Toronto's 17 millions were given by 19 donors. Our 313250,000 looks very modest. The Trustees and the Commandants will take great care that the interest from the Fund will be put to the best use in non-government supported projects. The professional group initially employed to study the Fund proposal stated that only 20Of,, about 640, would contribute, that only -PQ, about 125, would give 351,000 or more, and this would amount to 8090 of the total. At this early time in the cam- paign, we have pledges for S525,000. We have one designated gift of 525,000 from one family. W'e hope that other families wHl endow one scholarship as a memorial. Record is being kept of contribution by Branches and by classes. Big results are expected from the pri- vate canvassing by the Branches. Hamilton has already raised 3510,000, Ottawa and Calgary have started their campaign and the other Branches are now ready to go. We expect that the great bulk of the contributions will be received by the end of December. It is essential to complete success to have the in- terest and the help of all ex-cadets. R.M.C. CLUB OF CANADA FOUNDATION SCHOLARSHIPS Brig. Cunningham reported that his Committee had selected Wilbert Gilles Bush, now attending Royal Roads, as the first scholarship Winner. There were several applicants, but only Bush has qualified. RATIFICATION OF BUSINESS FOR 1964-65 It was moved by j. F. Grant, and seconded by G. G. M. Carr-Harris, THAT all acts, or proceedings taken, or pay- ments made by the General Council, the Execu- tive Committee, and the Officers of the Club during the year 1964-65 be and the same are hereby ratified, approved and confirmed .

Debblee, 'LTHAT the General Council or its Executive Committee be empowered and authorized to transact all business of the Club until the next Annual or General Meeting of the Club . CARRIED' ELECTION OF OFFICERS FOR 1965-66 It was moved by T. C. Keefer, and seconded by W. H. T. Wilson, UTHAT the Honorary Officers and Officers of the R.M.C.

NEW BUSINESS Royal Evzgineers - Ex-Cadet Memorial Major R. B. Wotherspoon asked that it be record- ed that the ex-cadets, both past and serving members of the R.E., had donated a memorial in the shape of the R.M.C. Crest Arm to the R.E. Officers' Mess at Chatham, England. Some 125 ex-cadets had been commissioned in the R.E. Present policy of the War Office and Canadian Forces Headquarters precluded any further R.E. commissions being offered to R.M.C. graduates. ADJOURNMENT It was moved by Elliott Spafford, and seconded by K. C. Dean, THAT this Annual Meeting be now adjourned . CARRIED QUESTION PERIOD The immediate past president, Guy Savard, in- vited questions. He stated that ex-cadets should keep themselves informed on the progress and activities at the Colleges. They should be a source of information for prospective applicants and in this way be pro- moters. At C.M.R. there are many English-speaking applicants for the 407, of vacancies available. There were fewer French-speaking candidates for the 601, reserved for French-speaking applicants. This meant that many English-speaking candidates had to be turned away. There were vacancies at both R.M.C. and Royal Roads. Ex-cadets can do something about this. Questions were asked and answered on: Cab Closer liaison of the Club with the new graduates and with recent graduates. Action is being under- taken. Cbj Fall in membership. A Committee is being formed to review the fee structure. fcj Closer liaison with the Branches. A suggestion that a staff member visit branches Commandant and Club officers do visit most branches. fdj More frequent newsletters. These are costly in publication and labour. Plan is, however, for more frequent newsletters. Cel Branch Club activities Need for more gatherings in a number of branches. Guy Savard, President, 1964-65. RMC CLUB OF CANADA FORT FREDERICK TROPHIES In 1962 the R.M.C. Cluh of Canada presented to each of the three Canadian Services Colleges a unique trophy, a replica of lfort Frederick Martello Tower. These trophies are presented annually at the three Colleges as an earnest of the Cluifs interest in cadet activities. At R.M.C. the trophy is awarded for out- standing athletic achievement at the end of the Third year, at Royal Roads, it is presented for outstanding merit in all phases of military training at the end of the Second Year, and at C.M.R., it is presented for outstanding athletic achievement at the end of the Second Year. The list below is a corrected one from the 1965 announcement. Trophy presented to the Royal Engineers Head-- quarters Officers' Mess hy the graduates of R.M.C. at present in the R.If. The presentation took place on 18 November, 1965, together with an illuminated scroll registering the names of the 125 ex-cadets who served in the R.E. No. 21127, Brig. J. G. Carr, at pre- sent the Commandant of the Royal School of Military lfngineering, Chatham, England, and the first ex-cadet to hold this position, was the originator and promoter of the t1'ophy. The five officers still serving in the Corps and some of the more senior retired officers have all agreed that the time has come when they must consider the method hy which they can mark the service of R.M.C. graduates with the Royal Engineers. Most have agreed that a silver centrepiece for the H.Q. Mess at Chatham would he most acceptable. The inscription reads: Presented to their hrother officers in the Corps of Royal Engineers by surviving ex-cadets of THE ROYAL MILITARY COLLEGE OF CANADA to commemorate the regular service of 125 Canadians who from 1880 - 19-12 were commissioned into the Corps R.M.c.

Cohen 2 2 WESTERN CANADA EX-CADET WEEKEND In 1964, on the occasion of the first Football Game between the College and the University of Alberta CCalgaryJ, it was decided that, if possible, the West- ern Canada Ex-Cadet Weekend should be held in conjunction with any future games between R.M.C. and the University of Alberta. To this end, the Cal- gary Branch of the Club with the help and co-opera- tion of J. H. Moore, Esq., and J. G.

The Calgary Branch of the Clu'b is indebted to Lt.-Col. W. J. Brown, C. D. for his courtesy in ex- tending the privileges of his Mess to the Ex Cadets attending the Weekend. The great majority of the Ex Cadets attending the Reunion were present at the Football Game on the afternoon of September 18th. The game which was won by R.M.C. 23 to 12 was punctuated by a snow storm, a sleet storm, a rain storm, and winds gusting up to fifty miles per hour, with brief inter- ludes of sunshine. It should be mentioned that sup- porters of the University of Alberta team largely disappeared at half time leaving the supporters of the R.M.C. team alone in the stands for the remainder of the game. At the conclusion of the game, the Colonel Sanders Trophy was presened to the Captain of the R.M.C. team by No. 3181, J. M. Willsher, Esq., Pre- sident of the Calgary Branch. The trophy presented by the Calgary Branch for annual competition be- tween R.M.C. and the University of Alberta was named in recognition of No. 111, Colonel Gilbert Edward Sanders, C.M.G., D.S.O., one of the original members of the 'Calgary Branch. When presenting the trophy, the President of the Calgary Branch gave a brief outline of Colonel Sanders' career which is appended. That evening a Supper Dance was held at H.M.S.C. Tecumseh for all EX Cadets and Cadets. Arrange- ments were made to provide feminine companionship for the Cadets by transporting two bus loads of stud- ent nurses from the Calgary General Hospital and the Holy Cross Hospital. On the afternoon of Sunday, September 20th, No. 2277, A. R. Cross invited all Ex-Cadets and Cadets to a Barbecue at his ranch south of Calgary. During the afternoon, those attending the Barbecue were able to see and participate in various Indian dances perform- ed by some of Sandy Cross' neighbours-members of the Sarcee Indian tribe. In addition to the above events, a small Class Re- union was held between Messrs. Sharon, Kerfoot, Birchall and Corbet, members of the Class of '37. No. 2317 J. B. Corbet. Presentation of Stained-glass Window Stained-glass window presented to St. Mark's Chapel at C.F.H.Q. in Germany. The Window was unveiled by No. 2726, Lt. R. G. Lampard, 1 RCR. who organized the fund-raising for the Window. Col. bl. R. Millar, D. G. of Chaplain Services CPD dedicated the window, and No. 2897, Major H. C. Pitts received the window on behalf of the Chapel. The design is the work of No. 5472. Lt. J. E. Colbeck, who also provided the full scale working drawings and the coloured miniature for the makers. R.M.C. Club of Canada Foundation Brig. Frank Lace, co-chairman of the Foundation Campaign Committee, gave an analysis of the progress of the Campaign to the General Council and the An- nual Meeting. The Campaign is now in full swing. This is a one-time project designed to place the Club into the life of the three Colleges. A grand start has been made but the success of the project depends on the interest and support of all ex-cadets. A push from everybody will mean the objective accomplished. These ex-cadets who plan on giving to the Founda- tion and have not yet sent in their donation should do so now. Every ex-cadet should give serious and fav- ourable consideration to this worth-Awhile project. Confound the expertsng be a contributor. At the time of going to press the Foundation has received over 3135.000 in pledges, with about half of this amount in cash. The objective is a Foundation Fund of over 35250,- 000, the income from Which is to be used for reserve entry scholarships and special projects that can only be completed through Club action. The sound idea behind the Fund is that separate demands on the generosity of ex-cadets to meet special needs of the Colleges from time to time will no longer be neces- sary. The Fund is a one-time project. ' 1 ., r .. .- ,, ,I ' ' 'fi ' I I xv .IA I- 1. - :M 11- .111-1? ,v 'R' ' V' . I M, FWF? 'T y, ,,Q .1r. 'wry I'- .lIgI Yu 1.
