,,-Aa. PETERCHJVER Peter has always been somewhat ofan enigma at Selwyn House. Famed for his socialist philosophies. he refuses to be identified with Karl Marx. so well call it Social Oliverism for the moment. That's about how idealistic it is. Immaculate. he'll kill you if call him a slob: he always takes himself quite seriously until it's time to throw ice cubes out of the 26th floor ol' the Hyatt Regency in Toronto or to engage in coffee fights at 3:00 in the morning in Sherbrooke. Bach in school, away from the humdrum ways of his out-offschool life, he has been known to add a chuckle to history classes. to hit Mr. Aimers with spitballs and generally have a good time. not to mention his fearsome exploits with Mr. Litvack. Preliect, Entertainment Committee member. Yearbook co-editor, and team sportsman - Peter is all ol' these. and he has certainly made a most valid and mem- orable contribution in all areas of endeavour with which he has been associated. So much forthe past. but what of the future? For Peter. it looks hopeful and we are all confident that he will find success in his ambition to become a lawyer: but failing this, we know he will become an incomparable chimney-sweep. CLAUDEPELLAN A student whose hard work and determination. not to mention his imagination and willingness to work. brought him nowhere, he is thought by many to become a soccer player in the future: not that he was any good, just that it was the only thing he ever worked hard at. Sure to become one of the world's greatest. . . The Flying Frenchman.

Activities: Destroying toy houses. making Montreal into an active earthquake zone. and parting the Red Sea. Pet Aversions: Pea soup. Metros. and people who are smarter than he is. Favourite Saying: As with painted or photo-cut out glass shots. the relative apertures which are required to hold focus will ordinarily range from ffll to W22. depending on the size of the trans- parency. AIEREMY NICOL Once upon a time there was a little boy twe thinkl. called Jeremy Nicol. In his past ten years at Selwyn House. he has excelled in every sporting activity he has entered. -leremy has a fetish for perfection: grasshopper soup definitely does not agree with him. though at one time he naively professed a liking for it. Jeremy is very fond of talk shows. as he has shown by his great devotion to johnny Carson's Tonight Show. As soon as one smells his favourite cologne, Macho. one braces oneself for the inevitable verbal attack to follow. All of his friends sincerely hope that he will become the something he most desires in life. Good luck, Jeremy! Friends DAVID NORRIS Dave has always been somewhat of a mystique in Selwyn House School. Al- though he has led an unblemished life at S.H.S. for ten years, Dave has distin- guished himself at B.C.S. forthe cult of needlepoint and botany. His gaunt sta' ture and dazed look should not be mistaken with the high vitality that exists in him while playing Robin Trower's Favourites. Dave has been an active member of all the groupie and rap sessions. He is the originator of Needle Norris and the Nifties . which reminds me of his immortal quotation. We're not the Stones, but we're nifty. He plans to continue his education at U.N.B. where he will seek fullfillment in local taverns. I am sure that Dave will be remembered for his large contribution to S.H.S.

The intervening years are filled with interesting perceptions and erroneous generalizations: these generaliza- tions becoming progressively more inane. ln the beginning and the end. a small dust explosion. and a bright reflection of a sphere. The object-a humanoid. Cf course despite all this. Willi was a real ass-et to the Selly way of life, active in photography and various sports teams. We'll never forget him for his patented line.

The final year is the culmination of many years work in fundamental studies. and the realization is that those teachers were ac- tually trying to help one by giving more homework.
