Mr. Burgess must be given the credit for building an English programme that is undisputably one of the best anywhere and for inspiring us all in our creative endeavours - especially through THE FOURTH DIMENSION, the literary magazine which was his brainchild. No one who was ever in his class can forget the thoroughness of his lectures, the meticulousness of his correction, or his much-welcomed advice in selecting books for study. He will surely exhibit this same dedication and interest when he leaves us for Ridley College, in St. Catharines, Ontario in the Fall. The best of luck to you, Sir, and we shall once again beg leave to see your kingly eyes. Board of Governors Mr. H. H. Norsworthy Mr. Douglas Robertson M.r. Timothy R. Carsley Mr. Peter F.

ANDREW BLACK Andrew, responsible prefect that he was, was too busy mopping floors this year to write his grad note. Although he did find time to satisfy his appetite for RIBS lor Foose Bearl. ANDY BROCINER years now. During this time he has been caught doing many things. He has spent, as far as we know, more hours 1days?I at the yellow door Coffee House than anyone else in Montreal. He has attained perfection at imitating Litvack's voice, and mastered the art of writing a year's worth of Haiku in one English class. As any girl who passes Selly will testify, he has more brilliant opening lines l I love young My place or yours g If you've got the time, I've got the placeul than anyone in the school.What really makes him really stand out, though, is his new Pontiac Firebird Formula, all equipped with V-8g 350 H.P. Engineg AM-FM cassette stereog dual exhaust, tinted glass - what more need we say? Parting thought: You can take the boy out of Selwyn House, but you can 't take the Selwyn house out of the boy. A Friend JEAN PHILIPPE BRY His birth in Necilli, France gave Phil his continental attributes: New York, His cosmopolitan then there is Brockville, which must have given him every in- tersting moment of his life which he has recounted lover and over and over again! to his fellow students for the four years that he has been with us. He has amazed us in his transition from grade eight quaker to his Casanova - like way with women, Bmce Jenner - like athletic prowness lsoccer, football, rugby and senior hockey team captainl, to his ravenous appetite for RIBS - SPARE THE SAUCE!! Sincere good luck to Phil in whatever he may pursue in life, whether it be Ambassador to Cambodia or general success. And to all his associates the same good wishes while they listen to his stories of Necilli and Brockville over and over and His Friends KENNETH BURNS Welcome, O life! I go to encounter for the millionth time the reality of ex- perience and to forge in the smithy of my soul the uncreated conscience of my race. - A PORTRAIT OF THE ARTIST AS A YOUNG MAN. James Joyce. JOHN CAPLAN John Caplan has been at the school for nine years. He has taken place in many extra-curricular activities within the school, but, imfortunately, we can 't remember any. Rumour has it that John is wanted by the F .B.I. and the Canadian Immigration Bureau for hiding illegal immigrants up his nose. John will long be remembered for his famous lunch sermons in which he tells the life and death story of a Pakistani grass-cutter, or of the secret activities of the K.G.B. Many teachers will be sure to remember John for his activities , For example, in grade seven biology class, John cut up a dissected frog into little pieces and left them in his dissecting pan. But John is leaving this year isob! I D, and I'm sure the school will miss him. Good luck, John! - His Friends - CHRIS CHAPMAN During his unpredictable rise to fame at Selwyn, Norton has become a definite asset to the school, and is well liked to the point of being adopted by Barry Williams. An outstanding non-athlete, Norts has not been on football, soccer, hockey, basketball, and rugby teams for the past five years. He has also not earned many academic awards. Norty has managed to soil his good name by receiving the Mark Beresford Memorial Award for academic ineptitude. Norton lsometimes called Chrisl is a master at the bad pun, the rotten one-liner, and the stolen joke, and is often hit for his tasteless comments before, during and after class. He is also a mine of non-information. An hour spent with Chris is better than a year in barber college. SOME MEMORABLE STATEMENTS: Spam : Elwood lives g Hello Chris' sisterug Nudge, nudgeng Hi Muffug Secks g Hey cheesy babyug Homework? You're kidding, right? g Hi, Dad , Well let's hear you try to be funny . JEAN-FRANCOIS CHENIER Hil Welcome to my grad note. Hope you like it but. if you don 't well, that's life. Are you comfortable? Okay Let 's go. Perhaps I should start by saying that I'm going to keep this humble. True, I could rave about my perfonistic achievements in debating and on the squash court. or dwell on the fact that I'm a genius lthough my marks don't necessarily indicate it! I 3 however, that's just not my style. I would rather be imperliguous. Therefore, all I want to say is that Selwyn House has been one of the greatest stonfabulations that has ever happened to me, and, though I hate to sound as if I'm blowing my own horn, that I have been one of the greatest things that has ever happened to Selwyn House. STEPHEN FONG Well, after all those years, those ethnic jokes are now really getting the best of me. I'm sure you long, pointy nosed. hairy people with pale faces can understand that right? Bye-Bye now. -195 GIOVANNI GALEOTTI Ambition: Marooned on Tahiti Probable Destination: Italian Tycoon Awards: never enough Claim to Fame: Being called the Italian Stallion Pet Peeve: Not being the Italian Stallion Favourite Saying: How's life? Parting Words: Good-bye lyou sucks!! RICHARD GRAHANI Richard. being the individualistic soul that he was, was too busy taking up astrophysics lspacel to write a grad note this year. ASHVINI GURSAHANEY Over the years that we have known Gursh, he has come across as a well- organized, bright, enthusiastic, person, but what happened in grade ll? Besides being a scholar , he is also known for his exploits on the badminton courts and a very flukey volleyball spike. His activities include photography club, math club, badminton team, and part time leisure team member. His claim to fameg having his name pronounced Gurshaaaney by Zuby and Gursanai by Deguire, having a disco hairstyle earlier in the year, and being the only non-Jewish person in Cote - St. - Luc. A Friend PAUL KORN Paul, being the unusual type he is, was too busy practicing his stretching exercises to write a grad note this year. DAVID KREDL Dave has been at Selwyn House for six years. Through those half-dozen years, he has come a long way from a two-tone C. P. Rail train to a two-door Mustang hatchback. He is recognized for his photography, chess, sound effects, lespecially wars and junglesl, as well as being the skip of the senior curling team. I will always remember Dave for his attempts in pretending to do work for the last six years. He is most remembered, however, for his strategical moves with girls, especially on ski trip buses. Dave has been seen with Al, his partner, at many high class restaurants such as Ruby F oo's and Harvey's, as well as many known sports centres such as St. Sauveur, Ntm's Island Tennis Club and Benny's pool hall. Dave - for you it's a chemistry lab and an O'Keefe. Big Al Thanks Al, and here's to you with O'Keefe. Dave ROBERT LANDE Rob is one of those consummately lucky individuals who hit Selly eleven years ago lgaspl. Consequently he has truly benefited from the devoted handful of teachers who serve to enrich our minds 1? I. Not only his capability to think, but his palate has been refined by these years of exquisite dining. Most noticeably, however, he has gained the privilege of associating with the social elite of Westmount ia privilege rarely bestowed on those who live out in the booniesl. Widely renowned for his success in teaching squash, Babs is also an ac- complished piano player, skilled at tennis, and a weekend sex god. The poor boy must unfortunately refrain from these activities periodically lafter Christmas, to be exactl, since this is when he recovers from his post-vacation sunburn. His codical involvement as editor of the school newspaper has been highly productive to say the most. In conclusion, we would like to say that Babs has been an invaluable asset to the student body. His undying wit has punctuated many a Physics class this year, and has often helped us through the day. --His Friends C. 3 .- JF ,I ARNOLD LAZARE Ambition: Engineer Probable Destination: Standing outside a cigar store Ac- tivities: C1u'ling, wrestling, science club. Pet Peeve: English critical essay done on the Sunday before due. Claim to Fame: Becoming a prefect with six weeks of school left. Cherished memory: Science club trip to Toronto. Favorite Sayings: Wooosh I'm not American! I'm not Canadian! I'm North American! To all the people at Selwyn House Nia: Wen lThank You in Mowhawkl TOBY LENNOX Toby is a conscientious student, and has always tried to involve himself in everything: but this year he was, unfortunately, unsuccessful. He was not able to join the G.M.A.A. Chess team or the Culinary Arts Club because they ran into his time for skiing, judo, debating, Public Speaking, studying, working, and worst of all, his social life. Even being popular hasn't affected his modesty. When he was called to accept the prefect pin, he turned arotmd and said: Who me '? If you will excuse the cliche, Toby has added a great deal to the class, has been a good friend, and has been a backbone for the school. I am sure he will be remembered for many years for his effort in making this one a good school year. Many good wishes and good luck in the future. WILLIANI McN ALLY One stormy day, back in 1962, a small miracle! The long-awaited McNally child was born. After many adventures, the young Willie stumbled through the doors of Selwyn House, his eyes wide open with wonder. Now, six years later, Bill is no longer the wide-eyed boy he used to be. No, not after many years of conditioning through debating, hockey, football, and physics class, he is now a tough, cynical person, ready to deal with any emergency. 1 3 A.M.? P Vlfhether it be in his studies, or in his high playing social life, Willie lives up to his image as a tough guy, a guy whose life is filled with fast broads and cars. A musician par excellence, he has been in and out of numerous bands, but now prefers to pursue a solo career with his piano. Good luck Willie. You will go far. -His Token Friends vf I on n .Y un xy 4 -an .5 f ,us '1- - 1. Wh fm Xgwxl a I . .NWN , ,Q . 5,953 4. ewggj' 5. Rx. fm 1,3 jiix '17 J 13, V. NN ..-QF,-'rv M -xii 5U4z.',.

This Was the Year that Was In a recent survey conducted by a team of independent researchers, certain alarming trends emerged, trends which suggested that the Class of Seventy-nine actually ENJOYED their final year. Indeed, according to some emminent analysts, it was a vintage year from which the seniors imbibed wholeheartedly of both academic and athletic spirits offered, draining the year to the very least. Asked to note five moments lepiphaniesl which transformed their lives or presented them with new insights, the students observed that it all started well with the innovative leadership weekend in the Eastern T ownship, which according to some gave us good directions which we unfortunately lost. Despite their sense of being lost, limches laccording to one of that august numberl saved our sanity, but next year, maybe they can try having a budget for food. Of course, noon gommet feasts were, for some, occasions to escape by using that elusive release - one day a month - which some managed to use to avoid attending the dining hall festivities on a daily basis. Newly fotmd respon- sibilities, beyond sitting at the head of a table also ranked highly as moments of illumination, and the mornings, when they found thinking of excuses for not doing the morning duties too arduous, led them to the confrontation with the threes and fours. As one noted, I don 't know how lVIiss Hopson does it, but once more ingenuity triumphed and the library and the so-called study periodsvafforded, at least, some excuse for absence from duties. Is this what they meant by the innovative 'leisure' programme, one was heard to ask. or was it ll A's discovery that the class window was a means of observing and timing Chris Creighton 's run to class as well as a way to arrive at 8:44 and answer to roll call? However, not all discoveries related to the vision of serious duties, or of great responsibility. There were moments in the gym, on the fields, or on the rinks which prompted those surveyed to record with some satisfaction the winning of a Norsworthy trophy or of a rugby championship, or of an injury - a lasting memory of a week away from school. Not all successes, those polled felt, occurred in athletic arenas. Some indicated that the newspaper, THE SPECTRUM made new men of them and showed how gullible people could be. THE FOURTH DIMENSION No. 7, Radio-Canada Internationals A Canada to Discover, The Julia Richer Competition, and Project Pandora V, all came too late to elicit any response but five significant things have not yet happened, although some in- dividuals did discover it isn't impossible to get lousy marks, while others saw physics l good times with high marks, -bonus question! as a means of keeping the averages up, or at least as a break from fifty-hour marathons to complete English assignments - a spiritual and physical experience- or as much of one as Mona's Ballet Jazz. All in all, the peasantry - a team universally scorned - saw the year through rose-coloured glasses of one success after another - AND IT WAS .... G.C.

OLIVER MERSEREAU When Oliver came to us in grade six, he was no new boy to the system and fitted right in. Over the years we have regarded him as a trustworthy honest friend. Academically, Ollie las his friends call him! has kept a good average while being involved in various extra-cmricular activities. He has been invaluable to the yearbook and photography club. lOften he has been seen running around taking candid photos of unwary people! Oliver will always be remembered lespecially for asking me to write his grad note the day after they were due!. A friend ANDREW NEMEC Andrew Nemec became a prefect this year due to an uncanny ability to talk to teachers. His most interesting features are his feet. Andrew, even since grade one, has had feet! Another thing which Andrew is known for is his mouthg it is always moving. However, over the years Andrew's contribution to school sports has been outstanding. He has played football 4Bantam, Junior, Senior! and was this year's team captain. He is an all-star wrestler and has been a rugby player ever since he could grunt. We do not know what we would have done without him. Actually we do, but we won't tell. KAREL NEMEC Karel's career at Selly extends all the way back to grade one. From the days of Madame Dorion, Mrs. MacLean, and lVIr. Philips to the present timeg he has always made himself known to us by exercising his physical assets or by sharing his extremely diverse insight and knowledge. Although Karel excels in such sports as football, squash, and rugby. we never under-estimated his mental capabilities. His Friends. JEFFREY NEUMANN Destination: God only knows why I want to be a doctor when I could spent my time painting, playing chess or tennis. My ulterior motive is to have two nurses pose for me. Epilogue: Our great School has taught me humility and the ability to think, but alas, not to keep quiet. Si tacuisses, philxo sophus mansissesf' It is sad that I must leave my Selly studios. I never will find such a great bunch of fellows and teachers again. JACK OGILVY For years, everyone tried to understand Jack, but this year, we all gave up. Although it's hard to believe, Jack has been lphysicallyl at Selwyn for eleven years. A few years ago, it was rtunored that Jack had spent a summer vacation taking survival courses in Colombia. From that time on, he has had a new look on life. He will always be remembered for such classic comments as, God you're ugly, and Kiss mine. He will also be remembered for playing on various team sports lfootball and rugbyl. But, ever since Jack has been here. he has confided in us and he told us that he wants to get out of this place. Well, now's your chance Jack, and good luck. -his friends MARTIN OSMOND Since his arrival in our midst in the fall of 1974, Martin has undertaken many activities both in the academic and extra-curricular realms. However in order to avoid being g1mg ho , we will abstain from extolling them at great length. Instead, we shall dwell on his many shortcomings. He was appointed Prefect in the early-late-mid spring of 1978. and, to his great shame and poor soul, he was appointed to the Sportsmen's Guild. He was further burdened by being subjected to membership on the Entertainment Committee. Alas, the oft-pitied lad has managed to keep a stiff upper lip. One can 't help but admire the true deter- mination and spirit which has kept our little friend going. His contagious en- thusiasm threatened to upset the status-quo at Selly, and for that, we admire him. -his friends- A man that hath friends must show himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother. - The Bible: Proverbs 18:24. MICHAEL PATERAS Michael has been at Selwyn House for six years. During that time, he has been involved with numerous sports teams, many activities, some committees, and a bit of schoolwork. Mike was once heard saying, I may miss the school once I leave, but never as much as it will miss me, and Thanks, I really enjoyed it. CHRIS PATON Whenever a party invitation is given to Chris, and there are many, he gets a special one that has the time a half-hour earlier. He comes ready to classify all social data. Not yet having enough, Chris makes his usual end-of-the pilgrimage to The Sea Horse, where he delights all with his stirring conversation. The following Monday, he graces us with his appearance, at some point or another. Well all remember Chris when we tie our shoe-laces-and untie them-and tie them- and untie them because of the ancient Czech superstition whereby one must do everything at least four times which, which he has instilled into all our habits. Thanks a lot! -His tall, but reassuring friends. NICK POWELL Nick, being the responsible prefect that he was, was too busy planning the Macaulay house acts for the Christmas Assembly to write his grad note. C a -1 ANDREW PRICE Andrew Price, ace pilot, entered S.H.S. a lonely yoimg child looking for friendship. However, in the four years he has been here, he still hasn't found any. Andrew is mostly knowsm for his singing - he can 't. He has played sports at the school lrugby and footballl, and look what it's done to him. Andrew does have many defenses against his classmates, such as his wanna go out with me? Smile and his sweaters lugghl l.

Quickly and wisely dropping these futile aims, he went on to lead the conservative, white wallabees, Lacoste shirt, and Aqua Velva movement which has grown so strong in our school. As with all of us, Hymie has had his successes and his wipeouts. He gained the reputation as the man who always comes through in the clutch from his distinguished career on the bantam and midget football teams, junior tennis team, and the rinky-dink hockey team. Hymie's gung-ho attitude has shown us that he's no mouse lMickey or otherwisel. Being his good ol' hardworking and persevering self, he has maintained a consistent subject average at S.H.S., though at times on shaky ground. As he continues on at Upper Canada and plaguing students there with his boyish smile, I wish ,Iaimie the best of luck. -A Friend. ALAN ROSSY After six successful years at Selwyn House School, Al lalias Big Al i has left his mark. In sports, Big Al has proven to be a basketball pro and a tennis ace as well as an excellent sportsman. Academically, Al has never let school interfere with his education. Even though he has been consistently inconsistent, his grades always end up being good. Everyone knows that females are Al's number one extra-curricular activity. Being the Beast of T.M.R. , Al can be spotted jogging up and down familiar streets in any weather. including hail storms lseriously, he is sanel. Besides being an all-round super guy and friend, what more can I say except that he's ready for Wheaties - the breakfast of champions. -Dave DAVID SHANNON After eleven years at Selwyn House, David is finally breaking away from the old social milieu. From the early days of puppy love for Miss Wood, David has emerged a mature and sensitive young man. He has pursued a wide range of activities at the School. In Grade Four, David won the Miss Wood Skiing Trophy, which he earned by labouriously practising at King George Park. He has been on the Yearbook staff, has rim the Candy Shop almost single-handedly, and has, most recently, been one of the stars of the Jazz Ballet Group. David has also contributed greatly to school life. This year, his initiative brought about the first Annual House Chestnut Competition in the junior school. Also, His Ron Barrett column has helped several with their adolescent problems. As David leaves Selwyn House, he looks forward to a literary career, as writing is a talent which he has developed since First Grade. He also plans to visit Ireland. where he can visit the tomb of Parnell, his dead King. We all wish David well and, who knows, one day, David may be seen walking the runway at the Ritz with cameras flashing and Thomas taking notes. - His Friends BENJAMIN SHAER ANIBITION: Dusty pedant, complete with frayed gown and patched tweed jacket. PROBABLE DESTINATION: Outstanding in his field. IDIOSYN- CRACIES: Tearing down halls, and zigzagging down staircases: wearing a handkerchief in his pocketg fits of laughter, carrying a strapg telling unhumourous jokes which he prefers to brand as subtle : pacing and walking in circlesg joining the cross-country skiing team without owning a pair of skisg reading Joyce on the bus to Smugglers Notch: constantly carrying books with him: wearing a different stickpin every day: carrying a glove in his pocket las well as a horseshoe! to slap across the face of anyone who happens to insult him lbarring somelg saving used bus transfers and other assorted rubbish, taking Lating remembering absurd and useless factsg holding FOWLER'S in reverence, etc. FAVORITE PASTIME: Annoying English teachers, writing old sayings on the board, and shattering illusions in general. SAIVIPLINGS OF HIS PERSONAL PHILOSOPHY: lll The most futile endeavour is attempting to repeat a coincidence. l2l Never beginning and never ending something amounts to almost the same thing. 13i There are few incurable romantics left, since they invented penicillin. 141 Verba perfida quam vera celerius volant. 15?

I've not only enjoyed learning of the highest quality, but also the experience of a close knit system in which every student participates. No other school helps so much to the development and character of the student in so many ways. After my graduation, the movement towards achievement will increase as the experience decreases. This is rote Sarkasticul. -Charles Farrar Browne MARK WALFORD Mark is one of the quiet ones. Like an iceberg, we see only the tip. Everything else is underneath. Who knows what thoughts lurk beneath that exterior? It would be nice to have a picture of the whole thing, and failing even that, we have left a space that may one day be filled. JOHN WARNER Activities: Football, basketball, rugby, wrestling, debating. Alias: Bone, Double Zero, Johnny Smoke, Johnny-O. Favourite saying: Come on, guys, let me win now. John is one of those people who can endure just about anythingg if 11 years at Selwyn House can 't prove it, what can? lJohn's favourite song: Still Crazy After All These Years .l Of all this year's seniors, John holds the record for greatest number of caningsg we all have our distinctions, don 't we? -His friends. PATRICK WEBSTER We measure ou.r gains out in luck and coincidence Lanterns to turn back the night And put our defeats down to chance or experience And try once again for the light Some wait for the waters of fortune to cover them Some just see the tides of ill chance rushing over them Some call on Jehovah Some cry out to Allah Some wait for the boats that still row to Valhalla Well. you try to accept what the fates are unfolding While some say they 're sure where the blame should be falling You look 'round for maybe a chance of forestalling But too soon it 's over and done And the man for all seasons ls lost behind the sun. - Al Stewart RICHARD WHITEHEAD This is a grad note which will represent my thoughts and feelings at SHS forever. I have chosen neither to shower myself with praise nor to bathe verbally in misery. Nor will I dwell on the perfonistic aspects of assessing grade eleven students on what they wrote one blustery February morning when they perhaps were tired or depressed .... An English teacher might slash this grad note with a red pen and the scribbled message, cliche . On the other hand, one could say that in transposing the overworked and the previously tmexplored, I have created an imperliguous effect. But enough of this. Back to sentimentality. I cameg I sawg I shall remember .... GEORGE ZARIFI How can I go forward when I don 't know Which way I'm facing? How can I go forward when I don 't know which way to turn? How can I go forward into something I'm not s1u'e of? oh no, oh no. You know life can be long And you got to be strong And the world is so tough Sometimes I feel I've had enough. - John Lennon THE CLASS OF '79 PLANTS TWO MAPLE TREES Selwyn House lost two old maple trees in the Spring of l9T9. At dinner one evening I mentioned to my wife that a number of the grade eleven boys had told me that they were upset to see the trees cut down. Anne proposed that they go out and buy a tree to replace the two old trees. I presented this proposal to the two classes the next day and it was very quickly accepted. Ashvini Gursahaney, Andrew Nemec and I drove to Jack Vincelli's in Montreal West and chose two Norway Maples for sixty dollars. Thirty eight of the students each contributed a dollar and the remainder was shared by the school, my wife and myself. Both trees were planted on May IT by a group of the grade eleven students. I believe it is fitting that Norway Maples were chosen. These trees are very hardy, adaptable and quick growing - just like Selwyn House students! Barry Williams ffiill ln?

I woke up, washed my face and looked in the mirror for pimples. Instead of pimples, I saw a huge boil on my cheek. There was another one. I said to myself, Oh well, I might as well go to school. When I got to school I forgot about my boils but everybody looked at me. I said to myself, why is everybody looking? Is it because of my good looks? No, it can't be that because if it was, the girls would be after me. Oh well, I'd better go in. ,lust then I went past a mirror. I walked back, looked into the mirror and saw that I had boils. I went into the locker room to get changed and then up to class saying hello to the teacher as I entered. The teacher said, What are those things? I said, Oh, these things are boils, I've got them all over mel The teacher laughed at me. I almost cried but I held on. After a while I started to laugh with the teacher, and when he stopped laughing I could not stop. The classes started. First we had French. I laughed through French. I laughed and laughed through the whole period. A little while later, I laughed my way out of the door. I laughed all the way home and into bed for the next funny experience of my life.

On his graduation day. something terrible happened. The head owl was kidnapped so the poor little owl could not graduate. Do you think that the head owl would be found in time? The school thought that it was Fowl-Owl who had kidnapped the head owl. So. that night. the little owl went to look for him. He looked high and low but the head owl was not to be found in the village. One day passed. That night the little owl again looked for the head owl in the Owlzon jungle. Sure enough. there. in a little shack. was the head owl all tied up. As soon as the little owl saw this. he ran back to the village and told what he had seen. The villagers made a plan. Right away. the owl women started knitting a net and all the men owls. except for two. made some bait. One was the little owl who was making another owl look like the head. This was done so that when Fowl-Owl came to take over the village. he would see the owl dressed up like the head and. while he was trying to get what he thought was the head. some other owls would rescue the head. Wfhen Fowl-Owl came to the shack and took the door handle. the net would fall and the owls would have him. That is just what happened. The little owl was graduated by the head owl and was allowed to go to law school with all the other birds. After two years of law school, he was the best lawyer in the school.

They learned about perspective and line by drawing chairs, about composition and let- tering by doing posters on pollution, and about designs by doing pen and ink drawings. One of the most amusing was to do a self- portrait sculpture from newspaper and plaster The boys quickly discovered that self likenesses were very difficult, and the sculptures were no longer called self portraits. After finishing these assignments. the boys were allowed to work on their own projects. Their own interests became evident. especially a desire to reproduce Tutankamun's treasures. It was a most productive year and a most enjoyable one for the boys in the art elective program. - X 5.

Aimers this year, the future of the Junior Debating Society seemed grim. The Juniors, however, were already motivated by their excellent showings at the beginning of the year, and weren't going to let this large setback hinder their progress. David Skinner and Phil Lapin won at Stanstead, while later in the year Tom MacFarlane and John Pitblado placed well at the E.C.S. Novice Tournament. The Junior Debating Society has certainly advanced this year. Hopefully the same promising faces will be addressing lVIr. Speaker next year. MIDDLE SCHOOL CAMERA CLUB This year, a camera club was formed for grades seven and eight. This was modeled on an earlier club, which last met three years ago. With the help of lVIr. G.C.I. Burgess, this year's club became a popular weekly activity for the boys. In the first term, the club drew 24 participants, who learned some basics through a series of lectures. After the Christmas vacation, the group lowered in number to a more manageable 12, who spent the weekly period in the school 's recently-built darkroom. Here, in groups of six, they were taught basic darkroom technique. Special mention should go to Andrew MacKay, Shaun Maxwell, and Andrew Webster, whose en- thusiasm helped both the output of the club, and consequently the production of the Yearbook.

Mersereau Selwyn House 1978-9 : elation at times, frequent satisfaction, occasional frustration and disappointment. Elation has stemmed from our success in basketball and wrestling, the strong leadership provided at times by our Grade Elevens, and the achievement of those who have risen to the academic challenge and achieved at or near their capabilities. Disappointment and frustration in dealing with staffing problems, or in working with those who have not met committments or lived up to expectations have been part of the year as well. Satisfaction has come from various areas : the Grade Advisor scheme, the growth and development of the Jazz Ensemble, and the careful planning and future implementation of La Sixieme. The good times will long be rememberedg the disappointments soon forgotten. What has really made 1978-9 a memorable year has been the warmth and friendship of the students. Barry S.

During the course of the year, 9C undertook such projects as the Great Desk Pyramid Con- struction Scheme, in which all the desks of our classroom were piled one-on-top-of-another, in the form of a pyramid. We also credit ourselves with the disposal of seven Linguistics teachers and two English teachers. We were, indeed, FORMIDABLEY Besides this, 9C has earned a reputation for its productivity and ruthlessness. We even noticed a slight grey tinge in the hair of Mr. Troubetzkoy. Nliraculously, of all the Grade 9 class rooms, ours was in the best condition. It only suffered one blow when one of those flying Spanish dictionaries went through a window. All in all, we had a great year and look forward to the widened ptusuits and horizons of Grade 10. X-mfs qi' 1 U1 ..,jL..... L 10A Mr. Lum 's Den: our beloved keeper.

After the departure of Mr. Aimers, the job of organizing the tournaments and weekly debates fell upon the shoulders of Mr. Troubetzkoy and the students, especially Toby Lennox and Robert Lande. The usual number of tournaments were entered and there were many successes. At the Provincial Tournament, Selwyn's team placed second out of twenty-six. The team was made up of Jean-Francois Chenier, John Warner, Toby Lennox and Robert Lande. Other highlights include Garth Bray's third place finish at the St. Lawrence University Public Speaking Contest, and Selwyn House's excellent finish at the Model U.N. at Plymouth, New Hampshire, where every Selwyn House delegate reached the finals. All in all it was a lively year for the debating team. P. Reid 80 MCNA'S TROUPE: THE JAZZ BALLET GROUP Jazz Ballet is perhaps the newest addition to the extra-curricular activities at the School. The Troupe, which was headed by Mona Ghattas, met every Friday afternoon and gradually, its members developed their dancing skills. Perhaps the most important part of the experience was that they learned to express themselves in a completely new way in an art foreign to most. The Troupe was involved in two performances during the year. They first performed in the Drama Pageant in March, where they did an Israeli folk dance and the Latin samba. The second performance was at Activities Night in May, at which a solo performance of jazz ballet and disco was given. The Troupe members were Ali Argun,Paul Korn, Chris Paton, Nick Powell, Nick Rideout, David Shannon, led by Mona Ghattas. i 2 5 2 5 2 Q 2 E SENIOR CHESS Chess participation was lively this season. Many classrooms became the site of a battle royale during breaks. at lunch, or any other time. Club activity consisted of practices and informal matches to determine top players in each grade. Of these. Jon Lapin lgrade 9l. Brian Iton lgrade lOl, and Jeff Neumann lgradelll were chosen to play in tournaments outside the school. Blitz matches and simultaneous games enriched club experience. Without doubt. the highlight of the year was a meeting with Grand Master Ljubomir Ljubojevic, from Yugoslavia. While playing in the tournament at Man and His World he accepted an invitation to speak with the players of Selwyn House. In a friendly encounter, Mr. Ljubojevic shared experiences of chess at the highest level. MATH CLUB For the first time a math club, under the supervision of Mr. Litvack, was offered. The objective of the club was to stimulate and encourage Mathematical interest. Students were involved in working with calculators and on various mathematical problems. Time was also taken to prepare students for the Junior Math Contest. THE MIRACLE l?l WORKERS This year, the author of this article will depart from the corny jokes and trite metaphors which have long been standard fare in describing the creation of the Yearbook. Unfortunately, without these ploys, there isn't much left to sayg a group of foolhardy boys join the Yearbook committee in September, unaware of the colossal expenditures of time and energy which they will have to devote as the year progresses. The operative expression is organized confusion , which means a slow and steady accumulation of material in a world filled with indifference- procrastinating teachers and students, hostile candid photographees, and a general lack of encouragement and enthusiasm, from the bottom up, while the committee plods industriously. By the beginning of July, however, the impossible task is somehow achieved, and while the committee congratulates itself on its diligence and lrelativel good fortune, the Yearbook sails off for publication. Benjamin Shaer fi SENIOR PHOTCGRAPHY Getting a picture that tells a story or the story of a special event is always a challenge. This year, with the help of Mr. Burgess, Mr. Varey, and Nlr. Krindle, the Yearbook photographers were able to enjoy the challenge without the hassle that often accompanies it. Mr. Varey, who set up a very efficient filing and distributing system, helped us to cover almost every event. Mr. Burgess' supervision of the now well-equipped darkroom guaranteed satisfactory results in the printing and editing of the film. Mr. Krindle helped in taking team photos, while Oliver Mersereau, George Zarifi and Andrew Smith covered school happenings. To photographers and subjects, thanks for a very successful year. Kenneth Burns Photographic Editor THE SOUND Early last September munerous complaints were made by members of staff concerning discordant squeals and O F J mysterious grunts and groans emanating from the music room. But to no avail. Just recently, however, these sounds, formerly distasteful, have now blended into the H T H E H L dulcet tones of the Selwyn House Jazz Ensemble, whose members are boys from Grades 9, 10 and ll. The group, an innovation at the school, was created with the if 'iii assistance of the McGill Conservatory of Music, which supplies the teachers for twice-weekly lessons. Four p saxophones, two tenor and two alto, two trombones, two ii S trumpets, a piano, drums and an electric guitar go to make up this musical group. All the musicians are en- joying themselves immensely and are showing a rapid pi improvement in their musical skills. Who knows, maybe Sabi sometime in the near future dances will have as an at- A traction the Selwyn House Jazz Ensemble! e 'w I' 2 0 Q s' Q 9 sn 3 0 - E N I F 1 ,ff X SCIENCE CLUB Besides putting on the normal display on Activities Night, taken from experiments done during the year in class, this year's Science Club expanded and undertook activities not previously done or seen before. Under the direction of M.r. Kershaw, a group of boys visited the Montreal Aquarium llocated next to La Rondel. The director, Mr. Penford, led the boys in front of the aquarium and gave them a behind the scene tour of the Aquarium. The infirmary and the holding water purification systems were just a few of the things seen. Then came Founders Day . The members com- piled a group of displays with the intention of having as much audience fspectator participation as possible. The final result was a very interesting evening for the parents and for the boys. The highlight of the year was the trip to the Ontario Science Centre in Toronto. Using one of the Schools buses, lVlr. Kershaw and twelve boys set off early one Saturday moming. Upon arriving in Toronto, the group went directly to the Science Center ibut a little later than scheduledl. The next day. the boys returned to the Science Center. In the Science Center there were exhibits and experiments. Some of these experiments were later tried at the School. The trip was a great success. We thank Nlr. Kershaw for his unlimited interest. 'wr WCODWORKING This year, we have been able to have our woodworking after lunch on Thurs- days and Fridays. This has meant a longer period, which in turn provides for improved and more ambitious projects. As usual, the turning of bowls, lamps and table legs on the lathe was the favorite project. Many fine pieces were turned, and much admired at the Ac- tivities Night held in May. Some other projects included a stereo cabinet. drafting table, chair tables, tool boxes, and the inevitable bird-feeder. All the boys are to be congratulated for their patience. J. P.

The obvious purpose of the Ball was to provide a pleasant evening of dancing and socializing for everyone involved. In this respect, the Ball was definitely a tremendous success. Attending the Ball were three major groups of people: the parents fteachers socialites, the Grade Eleven socialites and their dates, and the Grade Nine socialites and their dates. Members from the Grade Ten class were noticably absent, with the exception of a few. The dance music was a mixture of old and new. A conventional band supplied music aimed at pleasing the parents and teachers, while the TJ Mobile Disco DJ's supplied music aimed at pleasing the yotmger generation of disco lovers. Yet, the young and the not-as-young had and took advantage of every opportunity to mingle. Therein lay the basic reason for the Ball's great success. The highlight of the Ball was the traditional Bunny Hop, everybody's favourite. This lasted for several minutes as everyone hopped around the Queen Elizabeth Ballroom. A daring few ventured out of the Ballroom lhopping, of coursel. This culminated a fine evening of fun for all concerned. 5' fmt fix, ffm. , I'd like you to meet my friend, Harvey. .J-1 . j rx 9 .

Now, he scraped some of the unevenly distributed earth into the shallower patches with his foot, balancing at an angle upon his crutch. The mourners slowly separated, and Crishia, wandering away from her parents, found herself to the extreme right of the crowd as it moved towards the castle. May I walk with you? asked Rieker, approaching Crishia. Yes, said Crishia. Oh, yesg of course you can. She had never really liked him before, and was surprised at her own words. Rieker glanced momentarily at her as he pulled out his pipe. When he had it lit, he said, Not much in my line, Lady Crishiaf' What isn't? Earth to earthg ashes to ashes, and all that sort of excitement, he said sardonically. Not much in anyone's line, I shouldn't think, she replied. I don 't like the idea of dying. Not when one's young, anyway, said the youth. It's all right for our friend 'rattle-ribs: Not much life left inside him anyway. I like your being disrespectful, sometimes, said Crishia in a rush. Why must one try and be respectful to old people when they aren't considerate? It's their idea, said Rieker. They like to keep this reverence business going. Without it, where'd they be? Sunk. Forgotton. Over the side: for they've nothing except their age, and they're jealous of our youth. Is that what it is? said Crishia, her eyes widening. Is it because they are jealous? Do you really think it 's that? Undoubtedly, said Rieker. They want to imprison us and make us work for them. All the old are like that. Mrs. Vlegg isn't like that, said Crishia. She is the exception, said Rieker, coughing in an unusual manner with his hand over his mouth. She is the exception that proves the rule. They walked in silence for a while. The castle loomed ominously overhead, and they were treading into the shadow of a tower. Where's your sword? said Crishia. How can you be without it? You don 't know what to do with your hands. Rieker grinned. This was a new Crishia. More animated, yet was it animation, or a nervous tired excitement which gave the tmusual lift to her voice? My sword, said Rieker, rubbing his chin, my dear little sword. I must have left it behind in the rack. Why? said Crishia. Don't you adore it any more? I do, oh yes! I do, Rieker replied in a sarcastically, emphatic voice. I adore it just as much as ever, but I felt it would be safer to leave it behind, because I probably would have done something very vicious and unjust with it. Oh, what would you have done with it? Crishia asked in a mildly interested way. I would have pricked Rudolf's guts with it, said Rieker. Most delicately, here and there. and everywhere, until the old Scarecrow was screaching like a dying cat, and when he had yelled all the breath out of his black lungs, I'd have tied him by one leg to a branch and set fire to his beard. So you see what a good thing it was that I didn 't have my sword, don 't you? But when he turned to her, Crishia was gone from his side. He could see her running through the misty air in a strange, excited manner, but whether she was running for pleasure, or in order to rid herself of him, he could not know. Alexander Gault Form 10B l THE OAK TREE A Although a large oak tree blocked my vision, I could still see the crowds of people milling around the sidelines of the rugby field. Through the rain-splattered windshield of the car I was sitting in, it appeared that the grass was no longer green but that the whole field had been painted in a swampy-browm colour. Farther away, on the opposite side of the field, players, in mud-plastered uniforms, huddled together. Branchesyof the sturdy oak tree still partially obstructed the view, but I could see school girls with soaked strands of 'long hair, eraning their necks and yelling, as the players sailed by in a muddy t1u'moil. Stret- ched inlaerminably was an uninterrupted pattern of small hills and winding grey sidewalks, coupled with the stunted maples that dotted the landscape. Through the leaves of the oak tree, I caught glimpses of the excited groups of supporters as rain spilled from a sky turned grey.

His father, the experienced big game hunter, had entertained him with stories of the himt for as long as he could remember. Now, two weeks after his tenth birthday, his father had finally granted him his wish, after decades of waiting, it seemed. The State hunting season was due to start at eight o'clock that morning, but the hotel, filled for several days with hunters boasting and showing off their weapons, was quite empty and still. Shouldering his high-powered 28-guage shotgun like a man, he climbed into the passenger seat of the Land Rover, next to his father. He made himself as comfortable as possible for the bumpy twenty-minute journey and thought, to the extent that his over-excited mind would allow, of his school-mates who had spoken of his father 's hobby with scorn and ridicule. There were too many deer anyhow: why else would hunting be allowed, and it was so exhilarating, he vindicated his father. He was jarred from his daydreams by the Land Rover lurching to a stop. Grabbing his shotgun and pack, he jumped out, closed the door, and turned toward his father. They were at the end of a dirt roadg huge pines stood all around, and the not-so-distant gunshots were muffled and distorted by the wind. Reassured by his father that they would encounter big game, and that he would have first shot, they set out into the forest. After a rapid hour of searching, his father observed a small group of deer, four or five in all, on a rise on the other side of the brook below them. They slowly advanced down and across the brook, getting soaked to the waist in the process, until the deer were about two hundred yards off. Then, in order to increase their chance of a kill, and decrease the deers' chance of escape, they split up. He was to approach the group in a wide semi-circle, while his father came aroimd from the other direction. Perhaps they might even get two kills. He managed by crawling through the brambles and poison ivy, to get within a hundred feet of the nearest deer, they were now unfortunately spread out over a large area. He raised his shotgun, and with trembling fingers and a knot in his stomach, aimed at the solitary deer. At that moment, a stirring in the bush, not fifty feet from where he crouched, caught the corner of his eye. His mind was highly focused on the task at hand, and he instantly assmned it to be an errant deer. As steady as he could keep himself, he swung the shotgtm towards the bush, and fired. A strangely human cry resounded through the forest, and for a moment he wondered inanely whether the deer made that solmd. Then the truth hit himg he stood up, dropped the shotgun, and ran over to the spot. He beheld his father's body, the chest pulverized and matted with blood and skin. His vision blacked out, and his head swimming, he thought numbly that this time the deer got away.

As it lashes against the jagged rocks, great mounts of foam emerge. One cannot tell where the horizon is, for the colour of the water and the sky are the same- the colour of jet black. The rain pours down and beats harshly against the water. The rocks seem to slash through the water with their sharp and deadly edges as the waves attack them. There are bodies of dead birds scattered all over the rocksg there are gigantic waves in the centre of all this commotion. As they reach the rocks they burst into mountains of foam. But still with all this danger man seems not to care, and persists to go out to sea. Probal Lala Form 'IA THE STORM The weather had been clear for weeks. Life was beautiful. It seemed that these tranquil, blissful days would never cease. One morning, a thin haze appeared on the horizon, then, unnoticed, it thickened slowly, imperceptibly. until it stretched across the sky and blotted out the sun With the darkening sky came rain and wind and the end of tranquility. The storm raged for hours: flowers withered, trees broke under the onslaught, houses crumpled until finally the wind blew itself out. It was over. Stillness spread through the land for what had been, was gone and no memory of former life remained. All life is prey to storms. Plants wilt under them, animals run from them, only man heads into them and conquers them. The spirit never dies. The personality that was gentle in the face of scorn, tough when faced with weakness, and honest in the presence of hypocrisy lives forever. Storms buffet it and, though the body finally surrenders in the final tempest, the soul will survive through all eternity. Kenneth Burns Form l lA A PLEA Somebody listen. A child is calling.

Every child tries his first keg of beer. And if any of the parents try to interfere, they 'll be taken to the dungeon with the cattle and steer. The teachers just happen to trip in the halls over strings that just happen to be tied to the walls. All of the children are having a ball, and the people who have fun are all very small. All of the children are playing in the sand, while both the parents are locked in the van. History teachers are close at hand to tell about the life of an Indian band. But to be more serious and much more frank, it 's our parents we should thank. For our food, our clothes, and our boat that sank. And for their understanding when we pull that prank. Geoffrey Webster Form 5B SIR THADDEUS VERSUS THE SLDTHFUL THING How durst thou come and look upon my person in all its splendour, its...'? inquired the Slothful Thing. How durst thou accost thy slayer in such a manner? Thou art verily the knave of all knaves, fool of fools .... proclaimed the brave Sir Thaddeus. One ought now hear how such a fierce battle came into its being. Whilst he was a lad of ten and four score years, the yoimg Thaddeus fell in love with a fair young maiden of the name of Katherine. Betwixt the two, an everlasting bond of affection came into creation. In such a way did Thad- deus come into his knighthood and would that he might marry his fair love Katherine that did so adore him. A day was appointed for the young couple to be wed. At such times as this of fleeful preparation, foul things will occur such as will make the bold tremble. A fortnight ere the coming of the bond, the fair maiden Katherine was taken by the notorious Slothful Thing whilst she rode with her bridegroom in the fair wood, commonly called by the name of Brownwood, but more reverently called Forest of the Fair Trees. As soon as the noble Sir Thaddeus had pondered in what way his foe might have taken lovely Katherine, he pursued in a most unslothful way. Upon realizing the loathsome hole that the monster proclaimed as home, Sir Thaddeus in a monarch 's voice cried: Havoc, most uncouth sir. I would that you free the fair maiden Katherine, else I shall pursue thee till thy foul limbs are no more. To which the vile thing replied: How durst thou come and looketh upon my person in all its splendour, its magnamity, its greatness and its superiority? Thou lily-livered baby, I have fought men ten score better than thou! How durst thou accost thy slayer in such a manner? Thou art verily the knave of all knaves, fool of fools! I shall cleave they foul head from thy body in but a minutes time, the same for that vile toe that hangeth from thy sour belly! proclaimed the brave Sir Thaddeus. And so they fought, ere and anon, one not daring to slack lest the other bring him unto harm. Indeed, verily was the noble Sir Thaddeus weary, yet, for the sake of fair Katherine, he continued. Finally, with a mighty stroke, he clove off the great toe which in truth was in all the nucleus of the Slothful Thing. Thereupon, the Thing began to dissolve. Foul Shrew! Thou has defeated me in my glory! 'Twas a lucky stroke only that broughtest thou such spoils, young maggot! gasped the Slothful Thing as it came to nothingness. After catching his mighty breath, the brave Sir Thaddeus in exclamatory tone did say: I say, Kathy, what a damned cheeky devil that fellow was. Upon which the fair maid, Katherine, replied, forget that pewky bugger Tad. Let's get married! As they did walk happily into the woods together, hand in hand, Sir Thaddeus inquired of Katherine, Oh, dear, did you handle the honeymoon arrangements? Oh, yes! After the perfectly soppy wedding our parents want, we go off in a gilded coach to Marseilles, where we stay in a cozy little inn with an innkeeper who will leave us perfectly alone to our own devices. You little vixen! I can see this honeymoon isn't going to be a bore! exclaimed Sir Thaddeus. Upon which, this account doth end as the abbot of this abbey hath put a ban on the rest of it. Tim Reid Form 8A CHAPTER ONE IN WHICH HAMLET'S GHOST APPEARS, AND HAMLET THINKS Bernardo, while on guard one night. stood talking to his friend. Francisco. Was your guard quiet tonight? asked Francisco. It was the usual guard, if you know what I mean. said Bernardo rather carelessly. and Francisco. who thought he did. said, Oh Y Then he said. Have you seen Horatio and Marcellus yet? They were going to meet me here. Just then, they heard some steps behind them. and out from the dark came Horatio and Marcellus. Hullo, Horatio. Hullo Marcellus. said Bernardo. Have you seen It yet. Bernardo? said Horatio nervously. If there is an It. he said. Which I doubt. said he. There is an It. said Marcellus. for we have seen it - the It, that is - both the last two nights. Suddenly. he pointed excitedly in front of him. Lookl Out from the corner. the It appeared. Indeed. it looked like a ghost - possibly a Ghost of Hostile Intent. It looks like Hamlet Srl said Bernardo. You are a Man of Great Brain. Horatio: speak to it. said Marcellus. Yes, it is the king. Speak to it. Horatio. said Bernardo. Horatio said that it did look like the dead king. and jumped nervously. Then. to show his courage. he jumped once or twice more ldue to the cold. of course! and agreed to speak with it. But after only a few words, the ghost left. and the guards all talked about it together. What must we do, Horatio? said Bernardo. It is the dead king! said Marcellus. This means that something of Great Importance will happen. declared Horatio triumphantly. though he was not sure of himself. Lets tell Hamlet about the ghost. It might talk to him. Yes, let's. said Marcellus. And so the three of them went to get Hamlet. Later. Hamlet, Horatio and Marcellus came trotting back to the spot where the ghost had been seen before. And, indeed. but a few minutes passed before the ghost appeared again. Look! It's here again I cried Horatio excitedly: and then. It's calling you. Hamlet. Don't go! said Marcellus. fidgeting nervously. It might be a Ghost of Hostile Intent - you know. That Sort of Ghost. I have to go. said Hamlet bravely. If I don 't, it will not say anything. And so. our brave hero. Hamlet. went off with the Ghost of Possibly Hostile Intent. When they finally arrived at a more quiet spot. the ghost began to speak. I am your fathers ghost. I have been doomed to walk the nights for some time. But why? asked Hamlet. his eyes wide with wonder. And so the ghost told the story of his murder by Hamlets uncle. all the while Hamlet listening with Great Interest. Finally, the Ghost came to the end of the story. I have to go now. he said. Remember my words. he said. And don 't forget me. said he. And here we leave Hamlet, as did the ghost. thinking hard with his head in his hands.

It was a pleasure to play on such a well-integrated team: even practices seemed enjoyable. It is difficult to single out those who played best, and impossible to determine who provided the most leadership: nevertheless, a few names must be mentioned. Giovanni Galeotti, Tony Iton. and Greg Thompson, as members of the offense, were instrumental in establishing a running game, and enabled the team to average almost twenty points per game. Andrew Nemec. Nick Powell, and ,Iaimie Ross played a fine game and made up a generally tight defense. Perhaps the strength of the team lay in its ability to combine both winning and enjoyment in its play. Many thanks to Mr. Beauchamp and Mr. Heath for leading us to our successful season. .... ,si u I X .,, 117 -. JZ!

After the first day Selwyn House was in second place: however. through a very fine showing on the second day, the school managed to win the event. Team members T. Andry, M. Brzezinski, J. Carter, P. DeLeonardis, S. Hasko, B. Howard, S. Kohner, T. Nash, and G. Reusing, along with late-comer J. Warner, wrestled exceptionally well throughout the year, and A. Nemec and M.

Once again, many thanks to Mr. Wearing for his many hours of help without which we would never have suc- ceeded as we did. .11 ee , f is ,.,.........w Q 'E 5 E a 5 C li. R33 UU? A. Mackay A.

Warner played consistently well during the season. However. when the forwards were having difficulty, the backs U. Berton, A. Gault, M. Plojing, A. Price, and G. Thompson! came through. The high-points of the season were: trotmcing Appleby 45-33 squeezing past T.C.S.g beating Bishops for the first time on its own field: edging by L.C.C. twice, and outlasting Riverdale for the city cham- pionship. Non-regulars E. J. Bernard, D. Daly, M. Dungan. and P. Yamamoto proved invaluable to the team when key personnel were injured.

The doubles teams of Nick Powell-,Iaimie Ross and John Trott-Sean Lafleur both reached the quarter-finals in G.M.A.A. competition. as did jeffrey Nerunann in the singles. In a friendly match against Bishops, we also fared well: with the added support of Brian Iton. Ted Nash. Robert Lande. Jonathan Herman. and David Ramsay. the number of matches won and lost ended in a tie. However. it was the enthusiasm toward tennis itself which was outstanding. Under the patient coaching of Nlr. Limisden, everyone learned and enjoyed. in both practice and competition, what tennis is really about. Also. with the strong showing from both grades nine and ten. we are looking forward to an even more successful season next year. :J u at t. 3 t. a, 2 Ui C SQUASH lt, if The squash programme has continued to stress instruction in skills and strategy and the ,tandard of play has greatly improved among its members. Tournament competition at all levels showed a marked advance, especially among the most experienced players. Karel Nemec, Andrew Black, and Sean Lafleur competed in the U.S. Junior Championships held at Brown University and at the Canadian Junior Championships at Western University and all played very well. Lafleur was, in addition, a member of the Quebec team which won the Ontario Under 16 Team Tournament at Upper Canada College. Reed Ballon and Paul Laplante were members of the Quebec Under 14 Team at this same tourney. During the season, Fred Kristof, Peter Norris, Ron Riley and David Stevenson competed at the Toronto Cricket Club and in the Ottawa and District Tournament. All played exceptionally well. Selwyn House also sent a full complement of players to both the Quebec Provincial Cham- pionships, with outstanding efforts coming from Lawrence Hsu, Robert Lande, Jean Chenier, Jeff Neumann and Toby Lennox, and to the Canadian National Softball Championships in Winnipeg, where Geoffrey Moore and David Stevenson gained invaluable experience. Martin Osmond, Richard Whitehead and Alex Gault provided strong leadership for the squash team against traditional rivals B.C.S. and Stanstead.
