3 li -lx -i DAVID HALLER After five years at Selly. David has come up with a number of pet aversions. Among them are school. homework. teachers. and people who call him Uthe Little Green Sprout . However. he has liked a few things such as skipping games, science. and nights out on the town with Myron. A friend MICHAEL HOLY Michael burst through the doors of Selly. nose flaring like a bull. ready to at- tack the Selly way of life. It'sjust too bad the doors were locked and the colli- sion has left him meatless today. Indeed. he is characterized by approaching everything full in the face: responsibilities. parked cars. and trees at Mt. Tremblant Also known for his ridiculous laugh. we will probably remember him most for his burners . Who can forget his initiation as a prefect when it took -ll boys to tack- le him and hoist him onto the sacrificial teachers desk and slowly. excruciatingly shaved off his left burner A anyways. they're growing back at an incredible rate. A real asset to the senior basketball team. the collection otigrad notes for this worthy manuscript. and the dynamic member of our entertainment committee. I'm sure welll all miss him when he leaves. ALEXANDER HYDER Activities: Various clubs. student librarian, cycling and occasionally games. Favourite Sayings: Would you like to see something little boy? ho-ho-ho' Phudging Physics is Phun. Ambition: Mechanical Engineer Probable Destination: Driving trains for Canadian Pacific. Alex will be remembered at Selwyn for his record for getting six teachers ana noyed in an amazing four minutes - Practice makes perfect. 'Alex is an exemplary student: he is hard working and one of the IHOSI consci- encious students at Selly. They made me say it. His Friends

...au YQ 5 Q2 'Q ' MARK BANDEEN Mark has left an indelible imprint on the atmosphere at Selwyn House after five years of studious attendence. In his early years here. way back when, he taught us all about milking cows and growing cabbages -the proverbial class far- mer. I must admit though that today he is a changed person: he has gotten into bigger and better things - eating macaroni. doing P.S.S.C. labs. making George Hedrei electrocute himself on light organs. you name it. and Mark did it. During his five years he did find time to indulge in less erudite activities such as debating. being the assistant editor for the yearbook - as well as co-heading the layout department - football teams, to name but a few. Certainly the halls of Selwyn House will be missing some things next year - that familiar laugh. that blue knapsack. and the jolly humour. If one advances confidently in the direction ofhis dreams. and endeavours to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in com- mon hours. LUCA CEFIS Wops aren't especially uncommon at Selly: But never before have we come across such a wopper. Renowned for wearing jeans under his grey llannels. Luca has tried hard in his five years to maintain as low a profile as possible. However. he has been a dismal failure. His hair. his incredible flair for setting styles, his cozin and his caza, his aspirations to play guitar for Aerosmith, his basketball, and especially his connections with various bands on the mountain have forbidden this. What will become of him now? lt's hard not to be cliched. but the mafia might become friendly in the next 20 years. NICK GAULT Nick is well known for his skilled use of the English language. His oral accomp- lishments are varied: he has mastered the arts of debating and public speaking. and has livened up many a class with his cutting sense of humour. Besides his aca- demic activities he has distinguished himself in the field ofathletics. Nick's athletic abilities are well known both on and off the field.

1.7 T- '94 'Zhi TOMMY KAUFMAN The dumph came to Selwyn House in grade seven under the guise of an ac- demic scholarship. The school has never fully recovered: who can forget the days when Tommy used to run down a corridor in hot pursuit of a teacher to ask one more pertinent question lthis was grade ninel: in grade eleven Tommy became the accomplished bachelor ofthe class. However, we must admit that the sports world at Selly has greatly benefitted from Tom's consistent participation: the ac- academic world has also benefited. on the rare occasion. I am sure that Tom will succeed in whichever career he decides to pursue, be it girl-chasing or bar-hopping land if McGill should lower its criterion for medicine. Tom might even become a doctorj. A Friend N.B, pet aversions: P.S.S.C. problems, healthy relationships. Farourite pastime: trying to break up healthy relationships. TIM LARGE When Tim joined the Selly crowd in grade seven. he was such a sweet and in- nocent little boy - he even used to bring cookies for the teachers every morning. What a change! Since then. Tim acquired a liking for such things as Genesis fde- finitely reflecting a lack of tastel. girl swopping. champinki . Russian frolics as well as several other things, unfortunately unmentionable. Despite an obvious lack of intelligence he manages to pull off first rate marks. Tim distinguishes himself on soccer and rugby teams, and undoubtedly is the Selly all-star basket- ball player. Even though Tim is supposedly grounded or broke on weekends, you can catch him skiing into trees on the slopes. or bar-hopping in Old Montreal. Tim s favourite sayings include l'd walk 100 miles for a camel! Recently Tim gradua ted from head wall-washer to dishwasher. Congratulations! May your career in the future be equally successful. BOBBY LEVY Bob infiltrated the Selly ranks in grade five. Bobby, probably one ofthe most competitive boys in the school, strives to come out on top ofall ofthe class 81 he manages to come close. Around every Christmas. when success seems imminent, Bobby migrates to Miami beach where he catches the rays , and comes back ready again for the long sprint to summer. His claims to fame include advertising manager for the yearbook, and several more to come. lfhopefullyl
