Pri V1 ,Y . ' 'i .wx 'X VHP Annual Academic Prizegiving June 1966 On the afternoon and evening of 8th June with two packed houses , the annual prizegiving was held in the school gymnasium. In the afternoon the guest of honour was John B. Claxton Esq. B.C.L. who spoke to the boys on the need to prepare for and adapt to the speedily changing way of life, and to recognize and respect the ways of life of other peoples. He then presented the prizes io the Junior School and to forms l and ll of the Middle School. In the evening our guest of honour was Doctor Howard Ross, Chancellor of McGill University. In his address Doctor Ross emphasised the importance of the individual and exhorted the boys to work hard towards becoming brilliant individuals, Citing the examples of Sir Winston Churchill and President Kennedy the speaker said Hthere has never been a time when we have more desperately needed brilliant men. Problems are handed on, Dr. Ross said, llnot because the previous generation was not aware of them but because no one has, as yet, been able to solve them. The present generation, he told the students, must try to develop enough boys who are wise and intelligent enough to cope with these problems. The following are the afternoons and evening's programmes and awards:
