Chairman of the Board of Governors 1964- 1967 Mr. Norsworthy has served on the Board of Governors since 1959. He was one of the first that could visualize Selwyn House leaving Redpath Street and settling down on Cote St. Antoine with all that such a major step implied. Al- though this basic change in the nature of the School had been largely accom- plished by the time Mr. Norsworthy became Chairman in 1964, it is typical of him that, from that day on, he continued to place a steady stream of further needs before the Board. A much improved Athletic program, a Scholarship pro' gram and the beginnings of a Scholarship Fund to support it, a number of im- provements to the main building, these are some of the many accomplishments which we owe to Mr. Norsworthy, to his drive and to his imagination. We know that the world we live in is always undergoing change and that the School must change with it. We also know that the boys like change, find it stimulating, and can never get enough of it. What we do not know is whether we are fulfilling these needs often enough, soundly enough, and, yes, sometimes slowly enough! As our Chairman during the last three years, Mr. Norsworthy has led us down this right road which is so hard to find. David M. Culver

QEQQ THE CHANCELLOR MCGILL UNIVERSITY MONTREAL, 2 It was a great pleasure to attend your prize-giving last year, and I appreciate this opportunity to add a postscript to what I then tried to say, One of the great values of this Centennial Year, on which we are now embarked, is that it should encourage us to reflect on the triumphs and mistakes of our past development, It is a time for reappraisal, We can review so many instances where we might have done much better or much worse, Where things have gone well, I suspect that we will always find it has not been because we did not have problems, but rather because some man Cor group of menj came forward with the wisdom to cope with difficulties, Conversely, where we have had bad times it has been because we failed to produce good, sound leaders, One thing is certain, we will continue to need great men in future, There is no sign we are running out of problems, The men who will be leading us twenty years hence are now boys in our schools, I hope they are working hard to develop tle qualities we are sure to need, With best wishes to all at the School, Sincerely, j Howard I, Ross Narch l9Z7,
