gal!- gn- -V ' XL' ilu-if ANDRE DESMARAIS Andre is known to many of his classmates as a dirty capitalist swine. He's not really that bad, but don't let him handle your stocks. In a more serious vein, Desi has been at Selly for only two years, during which he has distinguished him- self with incomprehensible, illogical arguments, shouting down visiting socialists CL .B J, presenting magic formulae for instant success on the stock market, making it as a Rinky-Dink hockey star, then subsequently as a hockey star, doing stints as the Robert Charlebois of S .H .S ., and in general being an all-round flunkie. In the future he's expected to become the first male president of the Women's Temperance League and chairman of the Bazooka Bubble Gum Co., or a manure shoveler in Calgary being paid by the pound. If he isn't giving offers you can't refuse, you'll probably be able to find him training Sheba and Roosevelt to attack English teachers on sight. His Socialist Friends WILLIAM GOULD My years at Selwyn have come to an end. I feel that the past eight years have culminated in a peak beyond my highest hopes. The awards and activities in my years have been very satisfying but this year I found the best aspect of school life. That is a unity within my class and a realization of good communi- cation between the boys of grade eleven and the rest of the school - even the teachers. With Selwyn House as my basis l hope that my future will be as bright as my past at the school. The school has many good points but its best is unquestionably. the students, for without them the school would be nonexistant. To past and present members of the school body I say, that1k you and good luck. TAYLOR GRAY ln eleven years of hard labour at Selwyn House School Taylor has had the incredible record of achieving absolutely nothing. He has managed to maintain this record inspite of the fact that he was a prefect, a House Captain fSpeirsj, and that he captained some of the Football, Hockey, Rugby, and Soccer teams that he has participated on. In short, he is the all-Selly jock. His one great academic pride is that in grade three, he received lOOf'fo in a math exam. Taylor does have some good points, though, we just can't think of any at the moment. lxlany people will remember Taylor growing on the walls of the prefect room, or joining in the lively discussions during our free foopslj we mean study periods.

'Ty iQ,f ,i CLIVE HOOTEN What can we say about Clive? His ambition is to be an internationally known playboy. Good luck! Between injuries Clive plays on Hockey, Soccer and Tennis teams. On the weekends he prides himself in his prowess on the ski slopes, where he is often found examining very closely such aspects of nature as trees, rocks and bushes and is occasionally seen turning. Still, we must mention that C1ive's one true love is schoolwork. Despite an obvious lack of intelligence he manages to scrape through with straight 8O's. If you didn't like the '70 -- '71 issues of the Examiner, blame it on Clive. His other claims to fame are being House Captain fwanstallj and editing Graduation notes. His Friends IXIALCOLIXI KILGOUR They say that man spends 40'lli of his time asleep and that makes sense. Malcolm has spent '7 of his I6 years at SHS. . . Nevertheless, Chieflvlalcolm of Bcauharnois has been active at Selwyn. He has participated in soccer, hockey, the Film Society, and the Haircut Squad. Someday he hopes to pursue a course at Dawson enabling him to become a Junior Forest Ranger outside Barney's Bagel and Barbershop Euphorium in beautiful Burgerville. Fran BRIAN KISHFY Activities: Gym Squad, Soccer Team, Student Librarian, Candy Shop attendant, S .II .S. Examiner and the Yearbook. Ambition: Young tycoon. Probable Destination: Who Knowsf' Brief were my days among you, and briefer still the words I have spoken. But should my voice face in your ears and my love vanish in your memory, then I will come again, And with a richer heart and lips more yielding to the spirit will I speak. Yea, I shall return with the tide, and though death may hide me, and the greater silence enfold me, yet again will I seek your understanding, And not in vain will I seek if aught I have said is truth, that trtith shall reveal itself in a clearer voice, and in words more Kin to your thoughts. Kahlil Gibran, The Prophet.
