'6 6 I--BA X E' . X xv- TUL lf' lo-ft? BRENT MAINWARING When Brent came to Selwyn House in grade seven from 'down south'. he car- ried the true rebel spirit as well as a touch of southern charm. Between grades sev- en and nine he managed to cause enough trouble to start World War III. Grade ten saw a new and improved Brent. He has distinguished himself on the football, rug- by. and basketball team. He is a good debater, a skilled public speaker. and an af ble prefect. Brent also graces the Entertainment Committee with his presence. His favourite sayings include So what can I say. and Large, what an ugly! Brent amazes his friends when he pulls off top marks while doing a minimum of work. It is time for Brent to bronze his rugby cleats, pack up the ugly club, and move on to bigger and better things. Chow! I His friends MANLIQ MARESCOTTI Manlio or Mario as he likes to be called, came to Selwyn House in the fifth grade. Along with Cefis. they made up the gruesome twosome of the Italian com- munity at Selwyn House forthe next 7 years. But Manlio did more than just de- fend his ethnic background, he was also the president. vice-president and chairman of the board of the Selwyn House ball hockey league. Manlio has his redeeming points too: such as his quick wit and his bad jokes. But mostly his accomplishment of securing a cute auburn from the Study. Manlio managed to go out with this auburn for nearly a year, even though she was also very popular with many of Manlio's peers. Manlio says that he wants to go into commerce andfor hotel management. It is too bad that Manlio won't be able to pursue his scientific career. especially PSSC which he likes so much. I wish Manlio a happy and fulfilling future and hope he succeeds in what he sets out to do: who knows. I may need a dollar or a hotel room sometime in the future. A true friend DAVID MONOD Ambitions: linebacker on Saskatchewan Rough Riders, headmaster of Selwyn House, famous nuclear physicist, and renowned gnomologist. Probable Destination: Pope Activities: Talking, talking, sleeping, talking. talking, sleeping. etc. Pet Avertions: Expending energy and waking up. Favourite Saying: Yes. I know sir, but what's the point ofit?

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

ROGER OSMOND Though only a three year Sellyite. good friends are many among students and staff. and forever will the memory be green. The heights by great men reached and kept. Were not attained by sudden flight, But they. while their companions slept. Were tolling upward in the night. Henry Longfellow-1 8 58 Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end, but it is, per- haps the end of the beginning. Sir Winston Churchill-1942 FILIP PAPICH Filip 'Chippy' Papich, sometimes called 'jaws' for his over-enthusiasm in Eng- lish Class joined the Selly crowd in grade 7. The school has never had a chance to recover, Whether attending an entertainment committee meeting, or rushing off to a sports practice. Fil' and not Phil- always has a moment to listen to his friends and help them if he can. Even though he misses no chance to 'whoop it up', he has managed to maintain top marks throughout the years. He has made many friends. but somehow their names have slipped my mind. Seriously now. Fil has been a great asset to his class - keep it up! A Friend Human life consists in mutual service. No grief. pain, misfortune. or broken heart . is excuse for cutting offone's life while any power of service remains. But when all usefulness is over. when one is assured ofan unavoidable and im- minent death. it is the simplest of human rights to choose a quick and easy death in place of a slow and horrible one. Charlotte Gilman ALEXANDER PATCH Miles from nowhere. not a soul in sight. Oh yeah, but it's alright. I have my freedom, I can make my own rules. oh yeah. the ones that I choose. Lord my bo- dy has been .1 good friend. but I won't need it when I reach the end. Cat Stevens In Alex we have a rare specimen. after eleven years of experimentation. That's right. eleven years! If you take a close look at him. you would think him a wor- ker. Well you're wrong. While Al WAS undoubtedly one of the brighter students, his experience earned him and his friends fringe benefits leg. twelve donuts for a table of fivel. Alex has an unusual claim to fame: he has gone through ten English teachers in eleven years Qmay they rest in peacel. A Friend
