FOR THE SCHOOL YEAR 1953fl95-I FORM IX' Form IX' is composed of eleven quiet, mischievous, studious and fun- loving characters. As we go around, we may see on the first row: Roger Bellingham. This is a quiet person, who recently pulled out of some itchy measles. He is a prominent scout. Then there is David Bogert, who is a good sportsman, and who won his hockey and soccer colours this year. He is Vice-Captain of XYanstall House. Francisco Ciardona comes next. He is one of the better basketball players of the school, and is very studious. He is a noted linguist. On the second row we see, beside the window, which in the French lesson has to be open, Teddy Coumantaros who recently has been appointed acting Prefect, which is an honour to the class. He is also a good soccer player and a hard worker. There, at Teddy's left sits, with a pleasant smile, Geoffrey Gaherty, who, between visits, is a good student. And at the far XYest of that row is Bill Hambly, one of the best students in the class, and an excellent actor. As he always has something to make us laugh, he suffers from frequent impositions. Then on the third row, towards the far side are seated Michael Lofft and Ian Robertson, and among the quietest members of this sometimes noisy class. Michael starred as an actor, and Ian as a skier. Then in the middle row sits Colin Moseley, one of the best students of this class. and also one of the finest sportsmen in this school. He has also won his hockey and soccer colours. Lawlor XYakem sits behind Moseley, and, with his humour, gives us some of the finest moments in our Maths and Science lessons. He is the sage of Longueuil. And there, sitting in the best place of the whole classroom. beside the radiator, is Robert Osler, an excellent scholar in Latin, and English, with a quick wit and a ready smile. Many thanks should be given to our form master, Mr. Moodey, who has endured us during this past season of 1953-54. Very soon Summer Holidays will arrive, and all of us will happily go to beaches and camps, to come back with redoubled vigour to school in September. FORM III All four houses are well represented in Form III this year. Lucas House has Bobby Aikman, who is in the Choir and Scoutsg jamie Henwood, a quiet lad who is a friend to the needy: Richard Hunt, the youngest student, who does well in class: Ditlef Knudsen, who comes from Norway: Fred McRobie who is a good athlete: and Stephen Parker, whose attendance is somewhat intermittent but much appreciated. In Macaulay House are the bright sparks of the Form: Glenn McIntosh, Jimmie McNeill, and Robbie Colby. These three are also the wits of the Form. The other member is David Phillips, who is one of the good workers. I31l

Davies. R.S.H. FORM II l'm feeling mighty grim, for I'ni out on a limb: It's time for form notes again. .Xs I walk down our hall I can hear a Callf Those editors are chasing in vain. It's a formidable job and one that plays hob .Xnd is liable to drive me insane. For to twenty-tive students it wouldn't be prudent .X verse each to give you, see! .Xnd I know Form Two will undoubtedly rue A rhymer they made out of me. But I'll be fair: their names will be there, And anything elsefit' it's easy. Ian Belton and Doyle are two boys who toil, :Xnd as quiet as mice are they. But Ferro makes noise for the rest of the boys: His reward-an hour on Thursday! Xthile in a seat in the back XYaketield keeps track Of everything going his way. .Xthletes we have many, almost two for a penny. .Xnd soccer and hockey claim most. Saunderson and Peachey, Phillips and Leachie To Eakin and lileghorn do boast Of their shots that will kill, their relative skill In the defence sifting round like a ghost. Vubs there are too-Barry.

Klartin, Zeller, and Gray our classes keep gay XYith giggling and laughter hysterical. Boundy, jackson, and Hyde take work in their stride, Never minding it one little bit.
