Sheila Young SECRETARY-TREASURER..AUOFCY Broadfoot Under the able leadership of Elspeth Young, our House Captain of last year, Machray House carried off the shield. And now with the House under the leadership of Barbara Copeland, and with the co-Operation of its members, we hope that Machray will again win the shield. Well represented in sports, Machray has House Captain, Barbara Copeland, and Head Girl, Martha Grimble on the SchOol's First Basketball Team. These two have created for themselves an out- standing record Of skilful baskets. June Arbogast and Donna Kelley are on the Third Team, although we have no one on the Second Team, Joan Everett, Eileen Watkins, Shirley Womersley and Sheila Young greatly contribute to the Junior Team. The girls in our House also reach a high standard of excellence in volleyball. At the Hallowe'en party given for the Juniors, the executive mingled with the girls and joined in the fun. Games ranged from Musical Chairs to London Bridge and all agreed that it was a success. Our House took part in the Drama Competition held this year. Unfortun- ately for us, our leading character was quarantined for scarlet fever a few days before the presentation. We Owe our thanks to Judy Claydon, our producer, who took on the responsibility of study- ing the lines and taking the part, rather than drop out of the competition. We had the honour of having Susan DeLamater, named the second best actor in the competition. lVe regret that Miss Eldred. our en- thusiastic president, contracted mumps, and had to miss out on some of our activities, but we know that she will be proud of our achievements. A lot of fine work has been done and high marks obtained by the members of our House. They are a fine crowd and we are exceedingly proud of them.

N ancie Tooley PREFECTS ...................... Doreen Ogilvie, Elspeth Thompson JUNIOR LIEUTENANTS -- Patricia Liggins, Daphne Graham SCHOOL SPORTS AND SENIOR SPORTS CAPTAIN .... Donna Baker JUNIOR SPORTS CAPTAIN Elizabeth Patton SECRETARY-TREASURER ...... Betty Calvert Although the school year is not yet Over, I feel that I may safely say this has been a most successful year for Matheson under the leadership of Nancie Tooley, our house captain, Miss Sharman, her associates, and the rest of the house executive. - Our first big surprise came at Christ- mas when Miss ,Bartlett made the startling announcement that Matheson had come first for the term. This wel- come news made us more determined than ever to try our best to win the shield. In the Dramatic Competition, our play Elizabeth Refuses won first place, and Elizabeth Patton as Mr. Collins was judged the best male character. Much of the credit for this big success goes to Billie Baker who had the hard job of producing the play. In sports, Matheson came second in middle-school volleyball, third in senior volleyball. and last in senior basketball. We are looking forward to the tennis and deck tennis games during the sum- mer term. We are proud to have Billie for Sports Captain as she is also School Sports Captain. As yet we have not had a house picnic. One was planned last fall, but it was cancelled because of wet weather. We hope to plan a house outing next term. The Mission Tea is another social event we are looking forward to in May, and we shall hear such remarks from house members as, Does anyone know where we can get another silver tea-service? In closing I should like to say a par- ticular Nthank you on behalf of the house to Nancie and Miss Sharman who have guided us safely through another year. I should also like to wish the best of luck to the Matheson graduates and to those girls who will be returning to the house next year. BETTY CALVERT, 1 Secretaryb
