2 5' sz-'N ' 'ti is r X NICK HOWSON Nico has played both football and rugby at Selwyn House for five years now. Though not terribly big in stature, he has survived each season and even managed to keep his head intact. Then, to the amazement ofus all, he showed that he could also use his brain for something constructive, as he was one of the school's top public speakers and debators. I think that I will personally always remember Nico for his favorite saying: excuse me, sir, but I didn't get your insignificant little name. His destination...who knows? On thing is for sure, though. Whatever he decides to do, Nico's the type of guy that's bound to be a success and, at the same time, have a little fun to top it all off. Qthat is if he remembers to be polite to the 9th gradesl. Nico's last trademark at Selly was his appointment to the status of prefect. It was to nobody's surprise but his own. and as you walk down any street in five years and see Nico. you'll still find a shocked expression on his face. ARTHUR HSU We can learn what we did not know. We are not only good at destroying the old world, we are also good at building the new. -Mao Tse-Tung During the five years that Arthur has been at Selwyn House, he has, amongst other things, acquired a distinct aversion to: falling ol-fa chair more than four times in twenty minutes, maintaining the Spiegel dossier. optimists and other obnoxious people in general, sick Three-Spot gouramis, getting hit by trucks, lunar QTI-IE MOONI eclipses. cliched redundancies, ...dot dot dot.... Perhaps, in the future. some of us will become well aware ofthe fact that some of the witless words uttered by unnamed personrs ' is total garbage, and in this our advantage will lie. -A. C. M. H. RICHARD ITON Ever since Richard came to the school in Grade 7. he has added a great deal of enthusiasm and unity to the school. Richard can frequently be found in the halls after class talking about Garland Jeffreys' new album or telling a pervertedjoke. When he is not contriving some devious plan to embarrass a teacher, Richard can be found involving himself in the sports program. Richard has always been a key athlete on every team that he has played on. and is known especially for his kick-offs on the football team. Richard also has a great sense ofhumour, which he proved in Grade 10. when he followed through with the smoking of a cigarette prescribed in a French play. Let us leave Richard on a word of parting: jose Cuervo!

Greg Lake M Emerson, Lake, and Palmer TIFF MACKLEM Tiffjoined us here at Selwyn seven years ago, and that may well have been one of his best years - back then, we were all short. His size was probably his only shorte coming, though, as his illustrious career moved on to include winning first prize in the Meighen essay contest, managing to climb up the stairs two at a time. and earning the title of Master at being kicked out of Spanish class, second only to Kyres. This year marks a special graduation for Tiff, as he not only moves on from Selwyn, but also relinquishes his position as the shortest member ol the class.
