SELWYN HOUSE SCHOOL MAGAZINE SCHOI..-X RSHIPS 1942 Congratulations to John Nloyse on winning a scholarship of S600 a year for three years at Upper Canada College. Boys from all over the Dominion wrote papers. The Headmaster of I'.C.C. sent us congratulations on ,Tohn's First rate per- formance, and was kind enough to say that he had maintained the extraordinarily fine standard that S.H.S. candidates for the l'.C.C. scholarships have made their own. is is Also to Hugh McLennan who won the Perry Memorial Scholarship at T.C.S., Port Hope. The Headmaster ofT.C.S. advised us that Hugh had made an average of well over 80'Q. This scholarship is worth S500 a year for four years. PF 14 FF lfinally, to Denis Giblin who won a scholarship at L.C.C.f free tuition for two years. The Headmaster of L.C.C. wrote to say that his work was excellent and that he came a good lirst. Denis, who, it will be recalled, won First Prize in the Quebec Victory Loan Composition contest in I9-lf, was also awarded a Scholarship by the Art Association of Montreal in September l9-ll, but was unable to take advantage of it. Late reports indicate that he is setting a new standard in his Form at L.C.C. The H.S.H. Science Club held a Science Demonstration last November at the Parish Hall, Church of the Advent. The show was a great success and realised the sum of 362.10 which it has forwarded to the Allied Merchant Seamen's Club for the benefit of the Merchant Navy Seamen. Well done l This club has raised a considerable sum of money during the last year or two for various charitable enterprises. is if FK The Sixth form Brainbusters have contributed in no small measure to the general gaiety of the I9-ll-3 winter season. The quiz has been an unqualified success, and has provided a source of interest, instruction, and occasional tribulation to boys and parents alike. All boys in the school, tentry fee, 5 centsi may buy one copy, and try to answer the questions 120 per weekl from any source. Prize money is divided according to the size of the weekly entries. Protits tif anyl, pay for the paper, cyclostyling of the papers, etc. The quiz has had one unfortunate result : it has, on several occasions, got Mr. Jackson up much earlier than is his wont on Saturday mornings. Space forbids us to print a selection of the questions, but they would do justice to any quiz found in the average periodical or radio programme. The most frequent prize winners have been Dobson, Cottingham, Bovey, Campbell and Palmer. Pk FF FF Once again we express our grateful thanks to all our contributors. .-X great many boys in both the Cpper and Lower School have sent in contributions which have had, unfortunately, to be omitted owing to lack of space.
