R b t S eirs during his life at Selwyn House, came to symbolize the proud history of the o er p , school. His death on the 25th of March, 1981, shocked the school, but lt also made it proud that ' ' ld t be one so dedicated, so talented, and so cheerful had given so much to a school which wou no here today had it not been for his tireless support. These words from his eulogy echo our sen- timents: as a teacher, as a leader, and as a scholar. We recall his sterling qualities, his We remember him sense of responsibility, his integrity, his vision. ... his great love was Selwyn House School. When he accepted the appointment as Headmaster in 1945 the school was on the verge of collapse. This was to him only a challenge, which he faced with enthusiasm, bringing with him his own ideas and ideals. ... he reached his objectives step by step. l f th ears of service cannot be measured in terms of words. It lies rather in the The va ue o ese y hearts of those he taught, and in the recognition of what he did for them during their formative . . d years. lt was his example of rectitude, of high moral standards, of character, that led his stu ents not only to admire him, but also to revere him. The Selwyn House School of today stands as a monument to Robert Speirs. Mr. Daniel Doheny Vice-Chairman Mr. H.J.F. Bloomfield Mrs. R. Cowling Dr. A.M. Cloutier Professor D.

N sw i IAN AITKEN Ian fthe prefj Aitken has greatly enjoyed his stay at Selwyn House, and has always tried his best to heighten school spirit. Unfortunately, however, he never realized how much school was part of his life until it was no longer. For the man sound in body and serene of mind there is no such thing as bad weatherg every sky has its beauty, and storms which whip the blood do but make it pulse more vigorously. George Gissing GEORGE ASTRAKIANAKIS I consider myself quite lucky writing this grad note due to the hates I purge here at Selwyn. There are a few students who have been literally left out in the cold this year. Although I have been spared, the untimely end of Trotsky leads me to think that Big A will get me even after I have gone. I shall use this small space left to pay tribute to two friends. On a quiet and reserved fellow student and the other a sensitive, caring outsider. A toast to you two who have made this difficult year bearable. To J.P. and D.O. thanks, and thanks also to J.P.B., A.P., S.P., C.G. and D.C.I.S. Goodbye! REED BALLON Here are 93 words which describe What first comes to mind when you hear my name.

Not that I dislike the school, for I love it very much, it's just that I am not too crazy about some of the people who run it. Anyhow, S.H.S. has changed my life con- siderably. I met many influential friends, learned how to write critical essays and acquired some of the worst, atrocious, putrid table manners conceivable. You should have seen the mess at our table everyday. This was due to the system created by A.P. S.P., L.R., P.B., H.B., R.B., K.S., and myself, which is a method of consuming massive quantities of food using as many different parts of the body as possible. Thanks to G.A. for being there and to A.P. and S.P. for being my stepping stones into the world of music. My favorite sayings: I've been there and back, so it doesn't really matter anymore. I'm afraid he's been shot. Go straight to hell and don't turn back. I-IIRSH BERNSTEIN Amb.: To become Prime Minister. Prob. Des.: Cleaning out the P.M.'s toilets and collecting his garbage. Passing Thought: Please tell me what we've learned I know it sounds absurd - Supertramp What can I say about my stay at Selwyn I-louse. Three long, hard years of toil. That's it. Now I'm packing it up and splitting for good. Through all the work Through all the play The Bagel Man would like to say That he's enjoyed his Selwyn House stay. I-Ie'd like to remind Those who are left behind That the most important thing is to have a good time. SHANE BRADY After 8 years stay at Selwyn House, I leave the school with a great amount of fond memories. I thank my fellow classmates and teachers for making this ex- perience such an enjoyable and fulfilling one. Destiny is not a matter Of change, it is a matter Of choice, it is not a thing to be wanted for, It is a thing to be Achieved. - William Jennings Bryan 'S GARTH BRAY These were not the average contented cows. They were cows born for trouble. They were not cows who would stand by and let people call them bossy . They were cows who could not hang around all day lowing. They were cows who could be just as happy chewing someone else's cud as their own. These were renegade cows. Steve Martin A little learning is a dangerous thing, Drink deep, or taste not the Pierian Spring: Their shallow draughts intoxicate the brain And drinking largely sobers us again. Alexander Pope i Thou hast great alliesg 'fYou can't remember where it was. Thy friends are exultations, agonies, Has this dream stopped? And love, and man's inconquerable mind. Jim Morrison William Wordsworth CHRISTIAN BROOMFIELD In Christian's great haste in getting where he wants to go and meeting the people he wants to meet, writing a grad seems to have slipped his mind. PAUL BROOMFIELD Since Grade One, Paul has learned to formulate his own ideas about lifeg some of his most famous conclusions are the following: If at first you don't succeed - quit. lf you confess, half is forgiven If you deny it, all is forgiven Selwyn House Dream - to go to Quebec City, tamper with computers and change our matric results. lt's good to know that when you're at the bottom, life can only get better. Paul has spent eleven long years at Selwyn House, and has gained enough experience to know not to stay at the same school for eleven years. And now, after all the hours of hard work and pain, says Paul, comes Miller Time! IAN BRYDON In keeping with Ian's unobtrusive character he decided not to be obtrusive enough even to write a grad note. JOHN CZAHARYN When those of us who know John think back to his remarkable Selly days, a lot of things come to mind. Like him unleashing his unbelievably vicious shot tthat inevitably scoredl from 30 yards out on some poor, helpless soccer goalie, or leading the patented John Czaharyn end to end rush up the ice on the hockey rink, or a patented John Czaharyn death check , or a game winning, im- possible angle kick in a tied rugby game, or, with a completely blank face, John staring at a Mr. Lumsden Math test, or that grin you always hate after he aced a Physics term, again, or maybe that semi-deranged look as he captained a Lucas team to victory. But no matter how far he goes or how successful he becomes, he'll never be more known than he is now for the unbelievably STUPID stories he's always entertaining his classmates with. - A friend MARC DELPLACE One of the colourful characters with whom I spent my half decade made the observation that My God I was growing. The realization was very true in every sense. We all had grown: He that wrestles with us strengthens our nerves, and sharpens our skill. Our antagonist is our helper. Edmund Burke 1729-1797 IAN DOWNEY Do not walk behind me, for I may not be able to lead youg Do not walk in front, because I may not be able to follow, But walk beside me, and I will be your friend and when the Baggies are empty, we can always get high on life. It's not such a bad thing to do with five years - I had to SWEAT to be such a slug. Farewell, bonny prince ' ROBERT o1ALLoREro Long days of waiting for the end. Now it's here, and I'm not disappointed: You're walking down a country road. It is a quiet afternoon. You look up and far, far down the road you' see someone walking toward you. You are surprised to have noticed someone so far away. But you keep walking, expecting nothing more than a friendly nod as you pass - Steve Martin l've met many yaps in my time. STEPHEN I-IASKO Stephen is the most under-rated person in our grade. Stowedaway under that boyish exterior are great talents. We're not exactly sure what they are yet, but we're still looking. Stephen's never really stood out in anything particular, but has that peculiar aura of constant effort and perseverance. Wherever life takes Stephen, we know he will succeed - we don't know why, but he will. - R.G. I understand HOW: I do not understand Why. - George Orwell My nine year stay at Selwyn House was somewhat enjoyable, but now it is time, to say good-bye and good luck to my fellow graduates. JOHN HOUSEZ With the crowd instantly silenced by his commanding and unexpected rising, he uttered something so incredibly unutterable, so impossible, so unsolvable, that this mass of philosophy started heaving right and left and dying on the spot, blood bursting from their ears in an astounding death agony. - Steve Martin I'll never forget the time Charlie hit Billy who in turn hit Sally Sue. Hey, I could have had a V-8 freeze-ray stellar starch plate. Life is an understatement developed through sebaceous osterization. A few spasmodic wriggles, and the snake lay still. - Franklin W. Dixon So pointless, and yet, I can still see my ref1ection in the toaster. BRETT HOWARD When not electrocuting himself in the Physics lab, Brett was possessed with a mission to pass Calculus the always seemed to understand the material, except during the testsl. Also known for aggressive mark grubbing, teachers used to hide from Brett after correcting his work. Having spent his afternoons winning computers for the school, Brett is left with the dubious distinction of being the only human ever to complete Pirate Adventure . An avid wrestler, he is not a person to meet in a dark alley. Man of steel fmind of leadj, Brett will leave his marks in the school. Another case of the joys of l1B! A Friend fD.C.l.S.J JOSEPH KOVALIK Whenever there is a situation where a power struggle exists, there is never any right or wrong, one can either win and predominate, or one can lose and be defeated. In science, one can only be right or wrong, the idea of winning and losing does not exist. A very great scientist once became involved in a situation where these two ideas mixed. There was only one thing that he could say to defend himself: E pur si muove. JON LAPIN Type of monster: A Lapin Occurrence: Rare Alignment: chaotic chaos Hit dice: varies with mood Size: medium small Hit Points: varies with weather Move: 90 ft. walking: vfmg flying tstraight downj per turn Attacks: 1 tverbal stingj Damage: 80070 Demoralization Armor Class: lim x, x 2 '? Nationalism is the measles of mankind - Albert Einstein PAUL LAPLANTE There is a time to live and a time to die. I have lived a bit and died a bit. Strange days have followed bizarre nights. Madness is a relative state. Who can say which of us is truly insane? And while l roam through Central Park wearing moth-eaten clothes and a surgical mask, screaming revolutionary slogans and laughing hysterically, I wonder even now if what l did was really so irrational. l'm sick of these stinky boats Thanks to all l have known, liked or despised. SANDY MAAG Morison Woody Allen Since Sandy decided not to exercise his prerogative in writing a grad note, the Central Committee would like to exercise its own and wish him the best of luck wherever he is. AYMEN NADER On equal temper of hearts, Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield. After half a decade, Aymen emerges from the cesspool of the student body. Suffering from permanent five o'clock shadow, he was captain of the football team and a pursuing prefect. We have to say something about academics but as his quote says, he is strong in will, to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield, but he has trouble finding his own. Usually, he finds someone else's. Whatever happens in Aymen's life, he will always find excitement and success. PETER NORRIS How am I supposed to cram eleven years of my life into twenty nine words? Oh, boys, don't be sentimentalg it's bad for the digestion! Take a tonic, follow me! - Herman Melville AMEDEO PACE Gheeeee! Amedeo, vieni a tabolo! Amedeo's four years at Selwyn House have greatly enhanced his education, as we have all seen in this last year. His outstanding manners at the lunch table tat which he gained over 14 pounds this yearj, his mysterious consumption of coffee from the teacher's common room, as well as his efforts with his band at Selwyn House dances are prime examples of his extra-curricular contributions to the school. He has grown from a decent boy in grade eight to a REALLY decent man in grade eleven. Don't expect too much. Even the best musicians have to be patient with one another. lt always takes a few sessions to get your act together. - John Gindick DAVID OSMOND Receive my instruction, and not silver: and knowledge rather than choice gold. For wisdom IS better than rubiesg and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it. Proverbs 8:l0,ll After coming back from the Swiss Alps, David made a profound impression on this year's class. What this impression is, no one has yet discovered. Known affectionately as Oz, or Ozzie ibut never Ozymandiasj he could be found taking pictures of strange events in this year's Grade ll for the photo contest. Never- theless he won - he was the only entry. We wish David a successful future in his search for a medical career but I hope he never becomes my neurosurgeon. A Friend? If I can stop one heart from breaking, I shall not live in vaing if I can ease one life the aching, or cool one pain, or help one fainting robin unto his nest again, I shall not live in vain. Emily Dickinson ANDREW OSTERLAND Selwyn House is a strange place with quite a few strange people inside. There are so many inconspicuous little holes in which to fall that it takes a good deal of work to regulate what you do, when you do it, and how you do it, in such a way as to get along at Selwyn. But there were also a number of good people at Selwyn House and I suppose that I shall remember the fun times I had with these people when I think of Selwyn after a few years. If I ever expected to feel a sense of gratification or fulfillment upon leaving this school, it was many years back. It felt great leaving but my experience at Selwyn House was not five years of work, climaxing in the triumph of graduation but rather it was like five years of, well, Selwyn House. SIMONE PACE Simone has and always will be a leader. Wherever he goesg Italy, Canada, anywhere, there will always be some luscious bimbo groveling at his feet or at other parts of his muscular body. After four long years at S.H.S, he was able to develop his musical career with the Bad Sinners and his talents at serving at the messiest grade ll table. I-Ie is the one who showed us how to eat without forks, knives or plates and sometimes even off the table. All in all he has acquired four satisfactory years at S.H.S. and is looking forward to a successful career later on in the future. Simone, telephono ...l! - Lawrence you talk to her! His friends DAVID RAMSAY Fiction can be defined as the creation of the mind, because the mind creates fiction and the mind is real so as a result the fiction the mind creates can be as real as anything relative to life, Better late than never, right Bear! NICHOLAS PRATLEY Claim to Fame: Having seniority on the Headmaster, who's been at the school for ten years. Cherished Memories: Inspection in grade 7 French, handing out polite parking tickets on Stanton St.g fighting with Mr. Reid for control of a certain study carrel Awards: Many, for academic prowess Un terms of monetary value, they just about cover the losses.J. Life is a jest, and all things show itg I thought so once, but now l know it. - John Gay LAWRENCE REUSING GHEEEEE!!! Lorince, comes to the tuble, call Gerird, diner is rady! What a family, what a guy! He has been at Selwyn House School for nine years, and thus has gained so much confidence in himself that he does not need a posted lookout anymore when he wants to Have A Coffee tH.A.C.J in the teacher's common room. Apart from being the president of the H.A.C. Underground Organization, founded on 4!4!79, Lawrence has also been discovered to be involved in a sly system of very messy food overconsumption during lunch. Anyway all of his talents will again be shared at Marianopolis where he will still be HACking around with all of us! CLARK SCHWAB Definition: Clark Schab: A humanoid creature possessing alll necessary characteristics for life and little more. Ambition: Modern Love God or sanitary engineer. tQuick translation: All or Nothingy Probable destination: Certainly not writing grad notes. Favorite saying: If it doesn't fit, force it! Claim to fame: Unknown, but open to suggestions. Hobbies: Sailing, Skiing, Computer sciences, and the indepth study of sex life of igneous rocks. Why?: Why does this incredibly average individual waste precious time writing his grad note? It is a long and monotonous story beginning eight years ago when Clark arrived at the Selwyn House institution for the incurably sane. Since then he has proved to be very different, and currently looks forward to a lucrative future. tAll donations to be made to the Give Clark a Break association.J Thanks a lot, I really mean, itl M.E. SQ . JOHN SHANNON Eleven years of insanity. 1 apologize to those seven linguistics teachers in Grade 9. We were never forgiven. The tests, essays, hockey games and debates now fade into one big memory: Selwyn House. From Shannon V to Shannon. l knew when I received my diploma that it had ended .. I had returned to that reassuring but profoundly unsatisfactory state known as being in one's right mind - Aldous Huxley I am educated?! Yet, am I better? A sophisticated human can become primitive. What this really means is that the human's way of life changes. The converse, of course, is equally true: the primitive can become sophisticated, but not without accepting dreadful psychological damage. ANDREW SMITH Andrew arrived at Selwyn House in grade 7, very much unaware of the way of life here. Although Andrew was more at home gracing the halls of academics, he also participated vigorously in sports and athletics. Not content to stay in one sport, Andrew, over the years, has played rugby in which he was famous for his groang badminton, basketball, weight training, and curling, in which he created the ever popular double bang-ol shot, much to the chagrin of Mr. Martin. This year, Andrew was honoured for all his excapades by being made prefect, a post that he valued a great deal. As I move on to higher learning, I thank all my classmates and wish them all the best of success in whatever path each of them decides to follow. Ex umbris et imaginibus in veritatem. - John Henry Cardinal Newman DAVID STEVENSON Perfection is summarized by this fine specimen of humanity. He's a prefect, he's on all the teams Iexcept wrestlingj, and his marks are disgustingly good. In fact, if he had freckles and an apple, he would be the perfect all-American Iignoring that he's Scottishl. And WE had the misfortune of having him in our grade. Just think of the influence this THING had on us lowly scum. Anyone that gets into an argument with him doesn't have a chance, since he's usually right. He's had experience in literally everything and can tear down anyone if they're wrong Qand usually doesl. However, inbetween his perpetual singing out of tune, and his wild and crazy social life, this apparently Good Boy finds the time to help his friends. All in all he has succeeded in thoroughly enraging all of us in his ability to participate in Everything and still keep up his image for at least highl. His Friends? Education is an admirable thing, but it is well to remember from time to time that nothing that is worth knowing can be taught. - Wilde PETER STEWART One of the fun things about Grade Eleven has been writing these grad notes. You never know what to say in these U7o '8cS P'o things. I could write about all the things I've accomplished or all the things I've enjoyed. I could say what a great guy I am, or list all the things l've won. But there just isn't enough space. Lhar, harl. But if I must say my parting words in one paragraph, I should say I've really enjoyed Selwyn House, and I don't know what they're going to do next year without our weekly scandals. KARL STIEFENHOFER What is the last thing on my mind? l was ready to write Good, now I can do what I want to do, but then homework and dog pie struck me for some reason, in quick succession. But then I realized how stupid I had been. The last thing on my mind was always The last thing on my mind. Therefore, ac- cording to the law of infinite regression qwhich says it is illegal for anything to repeat infinitelyj, the last thing on my mind is The last thing on my mind. Oh, Bye. One day I called someone up and got the wrong number. I apologized profusely, but then realized just an apology was not enough. I offered some money as partial compensation and then threw in some stocks and bonds at the last minute. I thought I'd take a journey to Tibet to acquire wisdom, l could inform them of the truth, something money cannot buy. Naturally, they were still indignant, but were at least convinced of my sincerity ... - Steve Martin THOR VALDMANIS The grand entrance was made to the jungle in '75, There I stood without rations or canteen to find myself lost in the midst of hawks, fighting for a pathway to truth. As the dust lifted, the doves could be seen perched on their pedestals looking down below to where the ancient river through the timeless gorge of changes. In the windy halls of knowledge the clock ticked and ticked All the while, rules and theories were taught and then lost in the fury of competion. Wood, lead, paper, and metal contrived life's worthiest goal. While fields of green, patches of ice, and the comfort of foam all contributed to the physical aspect of life here. However, now in '81, it is over. Although strolls through the valley where umbrellas seem to be the fashion, playing with Alex and Lucy, and sitting back with Froastie, will most likely carry on, somehow they will not be as enjoyable. For a piece of me will always linger within the memories of Selly mates and the hot times we had. - LAT We are here for a good time, not a long time. So have a good time, 'cause the sun does not shine everyday. - Trooper ANDREW VIVIAN Now that you are here you realize that this little thing called a grad note is the toughest piece of writing you will do at Selwyn. Some cheat by using quotations. Others try to be amusing. Some write as if they were being released from bon- dage. How does one describe one's mixed emotions in so tiny a space? All I can say is that although my body leaves my spirit will remain behind. 27 LEADERSHIP WEEKEND FALL OF '80. 0 AND THE PARTY GOES ON A' 4 Nm, Q Q. A 5, iii X Q .X ii? I R L ,Q-. M . 4 mf ry.

Nevertheless the Middle School boys and staff did work and live together for that period of time. What elements combine together to make the Middle School work? Perhaps it is the close and personal interaction of the students with their teachers. This cooperation in a multitude of places: role call and morning inspection, the classroom, the sports field, the informal conversation at recess or after school. Another element, considered by many to be of vital importance to the smooth functioning of the Middle School, is the many extra-curricular activities. Many boys involved themselves in such events as the Selwyn House Casino, the Middle School Read-a-thon, the Junior Jazz Band, the March Break trip to Egypt, house games, the Ottawa visit, the Upper Canada junket, chess, photography, and art - the list is almost endless. Undoubtedly, however, the most essential unifying element in this entire scene is the boy. Each in his own way contributes to the vitality of the Middle School. The uniqueness of each boy soon becomes evident as the school year develops. And so the school year concludes. Hopefully each member of the Middle School, student and staff alike, is the better for it. Each, in his own way, an- ticipates the future, uncertain yet hopeful that it bodes well for him. L.l.

I am writing this brief message in the heat of August securely ensconced in my new office at Centennial Academy. My fourteen years at Selwyn House were most rewarding. l have come away with many humorous anecdotes and warm friendships. The students, to a very large extent, make a school. Selwyn House has been so fortunate in attracting warm and concerned boys and it is to these students that l say Thank You for making my years so enjoyable. This year's graduating class has been a fine group of individuals. 1 am sure our paths will cross in the future and so I will not say Adieu but rather Au Revoir .

Despite apparent deficiencies, the class had some sterling qualities. Whatever they lacked in intellect and savoir faire, they more than adequately made up for in charisma, sincerity, and even a touch of consideration and kindness. And maybe someday the guys of 9C will even be worthy of a class note such as this.

Though they were doomed to suffer defeat at the hands of the administration, they struggled valiantly to the very end and won the hearts of rebels and anarchists throughout the echoing hallways of the school. Their sacrifice was an inspiration to all those seeking justice and equality in society. Emombed somewhere beneath the building lie the bold men of the Selwyn Tenth. Their spirit lives on to fuel the fires of resistance movements with the school. The Selwyn Tenth - The few, the proud. Lest we forget . V Q- 2 ...- 10 B l fl 1 1.1 ,1-1 4. xc, sh!

They have had the ability to remain in school ever since their traumatic year in grade nine with very few dropping by the wayside. Each has been an individual who will go his own way, in spite of the rigours of his education at S.H.S. The year started off with a dynamic weekend at Ayers Cliff, that saw a large number of staff, and all grade elevens, delving into matters of leadership and diversified, creative talents. The various dances fincluding the E.C.S. dance lessonsl, proved to be most popular, especially with those who excelled in ballroom dancing. One of the highlights of the year was the production of the play Twelve Angry Men , which saw the boys show their excellent acting talents, Spring showed itself on April first by the manifestation of the boys' true manliness in E.C.S. 'drag'. All the best in your future endeavours! David Williams Barry Williams SP' 1 SYXZ.YihNfx IH xv- , ff E. SQ3. ' Q .441 :fi Qu H DEBATIN G The Selwyn House Debating Club enjoyed a very successful year. Over the course of the year Selwyn House debaters improved their oratory skills at a variety of functions. Aside from the usual debating, Selwyn House boys enjoyed much success at various model parliaments, public speaking tournaments, and debating contests. On April 10, Selwyn House School hosted the Provincial Debating Championships. Represented at this t0ur- nament were the best highschool debaters in Quebec. This tournament ultimately decided the seven debaters who would represent Quebec in the National Debating Championships. This event was a success on two fronts: not only were we able to carry off the tournament without major upheaval, but we were also fortunate in getting one of our team members, John Shannon, a berth on the Quebec team. The Quebec team went on to place second in the Nationals, and John Shannon won the public speaking segment of the tournament. Among the other noteworthy events were Robert Gialloreto's placing second at Queen's University Tournament, Phillip Lapin and Colin Chang's winning the E.C.S. Tournament, and Tim Reid's performance at the Model Parliament. The debating year ended on Activities Night when Garth Bray won the Public Speaking Award. Middle school debaters enjoyed a good year, participating in debates at L.C.C., Trafalgar, Dawson College, and Chambly County High School. Also, a number of grade six students visited Roslyn School to debate students of their own age. We all look forward with keen anticipation to next year's S.H.S. debating team. We are confident that this liaison will continue and ultimately foster debating at the elementary school level. 7. 5 l I-it - QL,-.ix Q 5-...-----f 72 CHESS CLUB The chess club had a successful season this year. The caliber of play improved quickly with the purchase of three new chess clocks. These clocks allow the members to play many two or three minute games in one period, thereby rapidly gaining them a wide experience. All members donated money for these clocks, and the school matched the total. Members had an opportunity to join the Canadian Chess Federation, and the Montreal Chess League. Four members participated in tournaments sponsored by the Montreal Chess League. Special mention goes to John Czaharyn, Esko Kilpinen, Thomas Antony, and Michael Vinovich. Michael Vinovich won a first place medal in his category. Congratulations to these and to all members for a fine year. Brad Moffat THE ELWYN HOU E SCIENCE FAIR Junior Section First Prize: James Dale Second Prize: Robert Sarfi Laird MacDonald David Tang-Wai Senior Section First Prize: James Soutar Second Prize: Hirschel Bernstein Q' -1 The first annual Selwyn House Science Fair was a tremendous success with forty-seven entries in both divisions. The boys displayed many interesting projects from electric motors to cyclone generators. There is every indication that next year competition and interest in the Science Fair will be even greater. Congratulations to all participants for their efforts. THE ENIOR ART GROUP This year the Senior Art group pursued a variety of interesting projects: pen and ink drawing, water colours, pastels and sketching. The culmination of this group's efforts was the annual Activities Night, where all of the art works were displayed. Thanks to Mrs. Pinchuk for lter enthusiasm and effort in delighting the boys who undertook to create fine art. - The Central Committee Y '- ,ull- :J Y ' S f' 'F Y S ,'F T3s if ff. si f f', , la w 'N I ly! up Q-gli-jgic- -. 1-A 'A jk' M AJ: ' fl' 3 h i iftm-' U ' WX! if-K-:-jr W fi :ll ' fl f 'M? ,WV':'+? ff.- if ffl?-Werw 1 T' li T rykhgq at ggk: L K--K -i i'fQ'i l,f' T.- iii P f -- , f' l i - 'WJ f ' V- 'F l 4 Agility' W Sit' 'Q f if f Q i A ight- ' f 'f,f, if .

W IQ ,Q , V ,t 74 YEARBOOK Putting together a project as complex and all-inclusive as a yearbook, in which one tries to represent pretty well everything that happened in the school year, is a demanding task, and, to this yearbook ad- visor at least, a kind of lesson in learning how to fight down panic Do we have all the rad notes? - S What about candid photos? Do they tell the story? And did Jones hand in that article on sports that he fr promised. These thoughts and others cause the questioner to sit starkly upright in the middle of the night, to fumble around for the light so as to make a note of it. Somehow, putting it onto a list is a comfort of a kind, because this usually leads to the item's actually getting done. The yearbook is fun to do - let us make no mistake about it. There is a great feeling of satisfaction in seeing all those pieces ultimately fit together. We only hope that you have as much fun reading it. W.M. Reid , 0 rv, tg A' F' vf WOODWORK 1980-81 With both Senior and Middle School Activity Groups well attended there was much worthwhile energy expended this year in the Workshop. Worthy of special note are Reed Ballon for his pine desk and William Coffey for his garden chair. Other projects of interest include a chandelier by Bruce Cawdron and a garden table by Geoffrey Reford. In spite of the difficulty in obtaining suitable wood for turning, several boys made some well-turned bowls and lamps. It is unfortunate that we cannot open our doors to the many others who would like to partake in this interesting and worthwhile hobby, but space does not permit enlarging the classes. ELECTRONICS CLUB As has been the case in the past, the members of the Electronics Club have set themselves rather modest goals for the year, including covering a sufficient amount of theory to make practical working with simple kits more meaningful. The members of the group came out of grades seven and eight, where theory seems to become somewhat abstract. Therefore, an attempt is made to simplify this theory, so that the fun aspect is not entirely lost. We covered basic electron theory, having a look at how electrons move, how static charges build up, and the func- tions performed by the parts that go into the kits - transformers, resistors, capacitors, and so on. Some use was made of symbols for the various parts, and water analogies to explain how they work. One or two boys were already relatively expert in the field, while others were absolute beginners, so it was always necessary to have various dif- ferent projects going. lf not a great number of operating devices result, at least everyone has a chance at using the tools of the trade - a soldering gun, drills, etc. It must be admitted that last year's goals - putting a man on Jupiter, creating life, and solving the world's energy problems - may have been slightly over-ambitious, but it is felt that this year's goal - to build a twenty foot statue in Westmount Park, created entirely out of Radio Shack solder - may be more possible of attainment. Good luck and Tallv Ho! W.R. THE MIDDLE SCHOOL CHESS CLUB The Chess Club, also under the supervision of old Semi-Kojak llvlr. LJ, had another successful year in 1980-81. The first part of the year was devoted to preparation for the annual tournament, while the second part, supposedly only casual chess between members, saw some fierce inter-club rivalries develop, as well as the introduction of a number of new versions of the ancient game. All in all, it was an enjoyable time for all participants. PHOTOGRAPHY This year the photography club, under the direction of Mr. Krindle, had another successful and entertaining year. The boys made full use of the school's dark room to develop many candid shots which went on display ' on Activities Night or were used for THE YEARBOOK. Sean Maxwell, Probal Lala, and Edwin Tagutchi pecial mention for their skills. - The Central Committee THE MATH CLUB The Math Club, under the supervision of Mr. Litvack, tried to stimulate interest and creativity in Mathematics. The students were exposed to a variety of Mathematical puzzles, and some time was devoted to preparing students for the annual Junior Math Competition. The ideal, which this year as well as any other we feel we have met, is to strive to make Math a recreational but constructive activity. E:MC2 JUNIOR ND SENIOR JAZZ BAND Activities period this year was enjoyed by thirty music students. The Senior Jazz Band was comprised of ten musicians and the Junior Jazz Band twenty musicians. Strains of the trumpet, saxophone, trombone, piano, bass and drums could, in addition to activities period, be heard EARLY Tuesday and Wednesday mornings, accompanied by a variety of yawns and assorted states of wakefulness. The Junior Jazz Band had good leadership from the second year students who helped the 'rookies' gain skills required for ensemble playing. The performance of the Junior Jazz Band was very well received on Activities Night. A concert at the Westmount Manor proved to be a highlight of the year. Some of the members of the Junior Jazz Band participated in the 'Christmas Concert and Carol Service' as well as at Prize Giving. This year the Senior Jazz Band was very active. Performances this year included, entertaining at a number of school assemblies, a gratifying concert at Westmount Manor and participation in the Christmas Concert and Prize Giving. The highlight of the Senior Jazz Band program was a trip to the Eastern Townships where the band per- formed demonstration concerts for two elementary schools. The trip was very satisfying musically and left everyone with a strong 'esprit de corps'. A demonstration concert at Roslyn School rounded off the year. The bands look forward to an even more enthusiastic program next year. David Nutting Director .H 5, -mind A' -- . J .E. IVERSEN Mr. James E. Iversen began his teaching career when he joined the staff of Selwyn House on Redpath Street in 1951. In those early years, he showed his versatility by teaching Mathematics and English as well as French. In 1957, he became head of the French department. During these years, Mr. Iversen assisted with the Games' programme, but his special field was organizing the annual ski meets which contributed so largely to the vigorous inter-House rivalries. In 1968, Mr. Iversen was appointed Assistant Headmaster under Dr. Robert A. Speirs. ln that capacity, he was the University Counsellor, and the supervisor for the Student's Council, the Entertainment Committee and the Project Society. As well, the Selwyn House Newsletter, sent out to parents and Old Boys, was created under his initiative, and produced by him until his retirement. After leaving Selwyn House in 1972 for a year, Mr. Iversen returned to the school and the classroom. During the tenure of Headmaster Toubetzkoy, he taught Mathematics in grades seven and eight, continued to counsel senior students in their choices of Universities and to write the Newsletter. After thirty years, Mr. Iversen has chosen to retire at what he considers an appropriate juncture in his life. His children are all grown and away from home, and retirement will offer him the time to pursue his own varied in- terests and to visit more frequently his family which is as far west as Banff and as far east as Halifax. Selwyn House wishes Mr. Iversen and his charming wife, Mary, many happy years ahead. ..,..- .--- - rv l ' 'gf --f -3 1, f AH- . XLJ4 E I xvid l.L -Q , . pi' 1 ui ga...

Cocktails served in the dining room were followed by a sumptuous meal prepared by Nina at candle-lit tables in the gym. The scene present quite a contrast to the normal, noisy proceedings of the daily use of the gym. Following dinner, President Harry Bloomfield brought the Old Boys up to date on Association business and then called upon Mr. E.C. Moodey t'lXloo'J to propose a toast to the School. 'Moo' responded in his inimitable, droll, and, at times, ironic manner, much to the delight of his many ex-students in the audience. Mr. Douglas Robertson, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Selwyn House then paid tribute to retiring Headmaster Alexis Troubetzkoy for the many contributions he had made to the School during his tenure as Headmaster. Mr. Troubetzkoy spoke fondly of his years at Selwyn House, likening himself to the conductor of a symphony who had brought into tune the disparate groups that made up the School community. Mr. Troubetzkoy closed his remarks by passing a baton to Mr. Robert Manton, the Headntaste-rfElect. Mr. Manion's remarks were pithy and fewg he offered no promises other than hard work and dedication. 4 3? ' I -I .1 1 E 7 . W' Fgvf db i' N Xl 80 OLD BOY ATHLETIC EVENTS This year, the school hosted three exciting and well-attended athletic competitions between the Old Boys and the senior teams of Selwyn House. In the fall, despite bad weather, a very competitive soccer game was played between the graduates and the senior soccer team. Despite strong effort by the Old Boys, our senior team came out ahead at the end by a score of 5-2. In the winter, the Old Boys once again attempted to defeat their rivals, the Midget basketball team. Led by Kenneth Clark, the Old Boys tried to out-play the very strong midget team. The score in this game was heavily in favour of the school team. With the arrival of spring, the Old Boys, filled with renewed hope, gathered together to play a rugby match against the senior team. Hard work and enthusiasm paid off as the Old Boys finally succeeded in attaining a victory. The three athletic events were well attended, each being followed by an informal gathering at the school afterwards. Many thanks and congratulations to all those participating in these events. I f ,- l U' T A .. kg J: .' A .tl l l 1 7 H . 4' 1 ix ...E ll l - THE SENIOR PL Y Following the tradition set by Clive Spiegel's production of The Importance of Being Earnest, the senior boys, under the direction of Mr. llarker, presented a highly successful pair of performances on April 13 and 14 at St. Matthias' Church, The play was The Twelve Angry Men, Reginald Rose's famous television drama, which orginally starred Henry lfonda and Lee .l. Cobb. The action of the play, set in New York in the late l950's, details the deliberations of a murder jury in the trial of a nineteen-year-old slum boy who is alleged to have knifed his father. At the outset, ,luror Eight tNicholas Pratleyl is alone in his vote to acquit the boy, but by the end of the play, he has convinced all but the irascible Juror Three lJohn Shannonj that there is reasonable doubt of the boy's guilt, the evidence all being circumstantial. Finally, Number Three succumbs to the pressure of the others, including even the Foreman tfiarth Brayt and several other hard-nosed allies - Jurors Four tAndrew Viviani, Seven tDavid Skin- nerl, and Ten tRobert Gialloretoj - to send a unanimous vote of acquittal. The first to align himself with Juror Eight is an old man, Juror Nine tLian Bally, who finds reason to doubt the testimony of an old man like himself: the man, says Juror Nine, may have glossed over the strict truth in order to gain attention. Juror Twelve fClark Schwabj, another old man and a recent immigrant, is sensitive enough to the feelings of the alienated to vote not guilty on the next vote. .lurors Five tSebastian Gaultj, Six tAymen Naderl, and Two tJohn O'BrienJ waver between guilty and not guilty under the rival arguments of Jurors Eight and Four: but finally, they come on side, along with a restive advertising executive, .luror Twelve tStephen Ahernt, when it emerges under Juror Eight's inspiration that the only eye-witness to the critue would not have been wearing her thick bifocals at the time of the murder. The Play was good enough to becotne in performance a live thing on its own. Each of the players made his own powerful contribution to the play and to its title. Especially note-worthy performances came from the five stars, Nicholas Pratley, John Shannon, Andrew Vivian, David Skinner, and Robert Gialloretog but even the bit players lScott Vineberg as the guard and David Stevenson as the Judge and Court Clerkj turned in colorful and credible performances. The production staff, too, did well under Stage Manager David Stevenson and technical advisors Mr. Warren Reid and Mrs. Patricia Marsh. Thanks to everyone whose co-operation tnade this play a spectacular entry in what we are sure will prove a long and glowing tradition! Thanks are extended to Mr. Harker for his excellent direction and leadership. 82 PRODUCTION STAFF Director: Stage Manager: Technical Advisors Makeup Crew Set Construction Crew Lighting and Audio Creiv Stage Properties Posters and Stage Diagrams Publicity and Tickets Crew Special Thanks to -Q 3 1 Q 9 Dr, Byron Harker David Stevenson Mr. Warren Reid Mrs. Patricia Marsh Mrs. Margo Ford Johansen Ladies and Gentlemen from the Drama Department, The New School, Dawson College David Osmond Mr. Jack Martin Peter Stewart lan Aitken Robert Bernier Michael Vinovich Robert Bernier John Housez John Kardos Mr. Geoffrey Dowd Giles Sander Kirkow Kirkov Mrs. Margo Ford Johansen, angel of the project: Mr. Warren Reid, chief in- terference-runnerg Mr. Jack Martin, chief car- penter: Mr. Robin Wearing, chief provider of rehearsal time: Mr. Alexis Troubetzkoy, Chief Provider: Archdeacon Doidge, Mr. Gordon Chalmers, Miss Marge Morgan, Mr. Stephen Crisp - the Staff of St. Matthias Church I 5 iz H GRAD NIGHT '81 Q A V H , . Miva! - . , x'V FUND DRIVES During the course of the year students from various levels of the School have involved themselves in projects to raise monies for worthy causes. Last December a drive to obtain funds for Italian earthquake victims was headed by members of Grade 10 in- cluding Colin Chang, Phillip Lapin, Denis Stevens, Tim Reid, Amedeo and Simone Pace and John Paul Bartolini and Sean Cote. The group ran a well organized appeal, maintaining a high degree of student interest in the cam- paign by skillful use of posters, notices and frequent announcements. Their combined efforts paid off handsomely and a total of 51,000.00 was raised by contributions from the student body, the staff and the School itself. Early this spring, Grade 10, under the leadership of David Skinner, conducted a sale of grapefruit and oranges to students and staff. Orders for cases or half cases, which had been solicited over a period of several weeks, were placed at the wholesale level. Delivery of fruit to the School and distribution of all orders were handled by the student organizers in a flawless fashion, and the School's Endowment Fund was 51,800.00 richer because of Grade 10's combined efforts. Another beneficiary of student fund raising was the Multiple Sclerosis campaign. Students in the Junior and Middle Schools combined their efforts and talents to organize a Read-a-thon which resulted in a donation of 5l,499,33 being made to this Organization. This sum represents a sizeable increase over last year's gift, and it was earned by these younger students reading a total of 586 books. Winners of the M.S. Read-a-thon were: lst: DARREN WAXMAN, Grade 5, 5163.00 Znd: JASON LEUS, Grade 3, 590.00 3rd: MICHAEL RILEY, Grade 5, 586.00 Those receiving Honorable Mention were: Bret Dougherty tGrade 21, Derek Vesey CGrade 49, David Kaufman lGrade 61, George l-Iadjipavlou CGrade 41, Stephen Scale tGrade 27. The Student Combined Appeal Committee this year again sponsored a two-fold campaign to raise funds. As in past years, the committee directed a Casino afternoon which took place in the gym and a lottery which offered over 5300.00 in prizes. The Casino, headed by Andrew Smith QGrade Ill, transformed the gym into a vast gambling palace where a coin toss, wheel of fortune, craps table, and other tests of skill and chance, including a computer games section, garnered 5450.00 for the campaign. During the month prior to the Casino event, lottery tickets were sold in both the Junior and Senior schools. Offered as prizes were a black and white television set, a Birk's silver tray, tickets to the executive box for a Manic soccer game, dinner for two at Hotel La Cite and numerous other attractive offerings. Enthusiasm for this event was especially high among members of the Junior school and they contributed over 50070 of the final total of 5500.00. Because this year saw the formal launching of the Endowment Fund, the Appeal committee very generously decided to donate all their earnings, 5950.00, to the newly created Fund. WINTER CARNIVAL This year's Winter Carnival was the most successful one the school has ever hosted. On Thursday night the school hosted a dance, inviting Trafalgar and the Study, which was well attended. The event featured a performance from The Bad Sinners with The Destroyers playing music while the band rested. The next day, at the crack of dawn, the seniors headed down to Jay Peak for what turned out to be a great day's skiing for both downhill and cross-country. By Friday evening, as the Voyageur buses rolled into town, a tired group reflected on what had been a great two days. Jai' 'V 5+ x I Qi' 1 x X -gg K. V u .x, J 2 g- , Aax N , Q 1 Q ' su., A .

This was his 24th student trip since joining Selwyn House thirteen years ago, and his experience in this field proved most valuable to all the members of the tour. The group left Dorval on March 14 and flew to Cairo via New York, Vienna and Amman, Jordan. The first half of the trip was spent in Cairo at the El Borg Hotel. From here, various tours were undertaken by the group. These included visits to the Egyptian Museum of the Antiquities, Egypt's ancient capital of Memphis, the funerary necropolis of King Zoser and the Great Pyramids at Giza where everyone had a chance to see the famed Sphinx. Also included in the tour of the Cairo area were a trip to the Citadel, the Mosques and the Khan El Khali Bazaar where the members of the tour very quickly learned the Middle Eastern art of bargaining. Other interesting activities that took place were boat ride down the Nile, visits to various Coptic Churches and a night at a club near Cairo where various cultural displays, including belly dancing, occurred. From Cairo, the group took an overnight train to Luxor. Once there, they visited the Valley of the Queens, the Ramesseum and the Valley of the Kings, where King Tut's tomb is located. Also seen were the Temples of Karnak and Luxor with their impressive columns and obelisks. The group returned to Cairo by plane from which the green valley of the Nile river could easily be distinguished from the dry, yellow of the Sahara Desert. The next day, the tour left Cairo to return to Montreal. A five-hour delay at Amman caused the group to miss a connecting tlight to Dorval from JFK and led to an overnight stay in New York. Finally, on March 24, the trip ended with the arrival at Dorval. The trip was a most invaluable educational experience for all those involved. Mr. Seville should be thanked for his work and all should look forward to his plans for a visit to Greece next spring. J oe Kovalik -. 544' ' ,ly . X. 'i fJ ifjh f .0 KW -T by 10 1 .95 N6 A QQ r '.

Our next Yearbook will feature his first message in the time-honoured position at the front of the book. Mr. Alexis Troubetzkoy has become Headmaster of Appleby College in On- tario. We wish him every success. lt was at Christmas 1980 that he told us he would be leaving. More of a surprise - coming late in the school year - was Barry Stevens' announcement that he had accepted the Headmastership of Centennial Academy, here in Montreal. To Barry, as well, go our best wishes for every success. Robert Manion comes to the school from St. George's College, Toronto, where he was Director of Studies. His background includes periods at Pickering College, Newmarket, Ont., and schools in Massachussetts and New York State. Mr. Manion's B.A. in French was taken at Syracuse University, N.Y., his M.A. in English at York University, Toronto and his post-graduate work in Middle Eastern Studies was completed at Harvard University. In 1975, he held the Braitmayer Fellowship, awarded by the National Association of Independent Schoolsg in 1977 he was elected to the Cum Laude Society. We look forward to a happy period under an energetic headmaster who, we know, will continue the fine tradition of scholarship that is so much a part of Selwyn House. We hope the pleasure will be equal on both sides. Robert Manion, Headmaster-Elect. ws-T' -:Jr-' irq.

King wants to have a joker. I-Immmmmmmmm. This could be my lucky day. So he ran to the bookstore as fast as he could go and bought a WORLD BOOK ABOUT JOKES and a book HOW TO MAKE PEOPLE LAUGH. He studied the jokes and memorized them. When he was finished he ran to the palace. When he got there, Simon thought for a minute I forgot my suit. So he rushed home and got it and ran back and asked if he could enter. The guard said, What for? The King wants a joker, and l am the one. l am going to be the joker. So the guards let him in. One guard took Simon in and brought him into his room. The next morning the King asked for Joker Simon. When the King saw Simon's funny tricks he did not laugh, but the second time he went Hu! Hu! The third time he laughed so much that when he stopped he was coughing. When he stopped the magician was there. For the whole time the King was laughing. Simon was mad because he didn't get paid. He thought, l'll tell him a joke that is not funny. The next day Simon went to the King and told him a joke. Not too good, said the King. Then what kind of joke would you like? asked Simon. Remember you did not pay me yesterday. I want to be paid now. The King said, Oh, go to the magician. So Simon went to the magician. He entered the room of the magician. The magician said, What makes you come here, Simon? The king sent me. I want you to pay me, said Simon. I can fix that, said the magician. How? asked Simon. I will pay you some money, said the magician. That's impossible. I want your wand, said Simon. No, you're only a jokerf' said the magician. Well I can be a magician, said Simon. No you can't. You were hired to be a joker, said the magician. Oh well, you're right. You pay me every time with money, said Simon. That's a deal, said the magician, So Simon was not greedy any more. Victor Wan, 3 , I FOURTH DIMENSION LITERARY CONTEST SENIOR WINNER A THREAT The silvery gull walked slowly along the rocky beach, his beak excitedly busy, picking at the small shrimp and other crustaceans which swam about in the small water pools formed between the rocks. l-lis determined efforts to find a decent supper made him oblivious of the huge beached, black Pfaladium lfor that is what it wasl, which had now become imbedded between two large boulders. Even as its black mass started to glow faintly, the gull was unperturbed. But when the Pfaladium belched forth an indignant and rather violent red flame, the bird acquiesced and hastily departed. The clouds of steam created by the blast dissipated, leaving the now quite heated and ominous looking Pfaladium as master of the beach. As master, it systematically boiled away all of the water pools within range of its blasters, destroying the millions of creatures which lived in them. Its fall into the sea, and subsequent lunge towards solid earth had been rather traumatic, so it did not wish to upset its stomach on organic substances. Eventually, she hoped ffor it was a femalel to disperse of all the moisture in her area, killing any creatures present, thus securing a more palatable food supply for the remainder of her gestation period. For five hours, the Pfaladium ruled unmolested. Soon, she would have absorbed enough energy to move further inland and give birth to more Pfaladia, eventually dominating this planet. She thought ahead happily towards the time when she and her kind could be once more the sole masters of a planet, and reap the total benefits thereof. Other life forms would be liquidated or enslaved, dedicated only to the fulfillment of the pleasures of their Pfaladium conquerors. Her bliss was abruptly ended though when a gentle sea wave, containing millions of microscopic protozoa, lapped at her food probe . With a Pfaladium belch of disgust she blasted the water away. Shaken, she proceeded to move inland towards the dryness and safety there, but before she could shift around, a second wave encroached on her territory. The tide was rising! Although a practical Pfaladium in most respects, she was too confused and revolted to think of this second violation of her territory as anything but an attack on her personal being by a hostile Earth entity. Surley this pest had to be dealt with before she could move! A wave of fire met the wave of water, but the respite gained was only temporary, for instead of weakening, the onslaught of water began to grow! The Pfaladium, now quite distressed, ventured her full fury upon the menacing seas. The brilliance of her attacks were beginning to rival even that of the unmasked sun, which was now weakly filtering through the mists. Although the water constantly retreated from her onslaught, she began to realize that as she weakened, the mercilous sea only increased in might. Eventually, she found that she had to fire constantly to keep from getting swamped, and began to become confused by the intensity of the steam that her blasts had created. Finally over- whelmed, she sent out a telepathic message of distress to all of the other Pfaladia, secured on beaches throughout the world. The others responded with vigor tfPfaladia love a challengel and the greatest battle of the seas had begun. The Earth knew no peace that day as the full power of the Pfaladia was concentrated upon the waters. Even under the great clouds and mists which now covered most of the seacoasts, men hid in the deepest caves or fled to the interior of the continents to escape the brilliance and heat of Pfaladium might. For several hours the Pfaladium onslaught continued, after which they were tired, but content. They had shown the seas who were the masters. The water level had dropped much too low ever to threaten again another Pfaladium. The Pfaladia were the rulers. Now they would organize this planet rightly, putting inferiors in their place. As if a single unit, they started towards in interior of the continents to complete their conquest. Their jubilation had just been completed when the first raindrops began to fall, at first only here and there, and then gradually all over the Earth, as the cessation of the Pfaladium attack allowed the mists to cool and condense once again. In vain, the frustrated and tired Pfaladia tried to blast away the rain, but to no avail. Realizing the ridiculous hopelessness of their situation, the embarressed and despondent Pfaladia expended their last store of energy doing the only honourable thing possible at the time, commit mass suicide. lt is generally accepted, that of all the alien invaders of Earth, the Pfaladia were the stupidest. Jon Lapin, ll MEIGHEN ESSAY FIRST PRIZE, GRADE 11 THE CONSUMMATION George was confused. His mommy had told him that his computer card would flash the YOU-ARE BLESSEDLY-ON-THE-RlGHT-TRACK'' signal when the elevator had arrived at the eighteenth floor. But Georgy, she had warned, if there are other people in the elevator with you, DON'T use your card. You know how these Canadians resent the ingenuity of God's people. Just get off at the eighteenth floor and everything will be fine. Well, since there were other people in the elevator, George obediently kept his hands in his pockets and watched the primitive light bar above the door to make sure that he DID leave at the eighteenth floor. Once out of the elevator, he quickly ducked into a men's washroom to check his card. It had remained blank! Neither his mommy nor Oral Electronics had ever been wrong before. George leaned against a stall and started to cry. Ill lk lk Oh, Armstrong, Armstrong, Mrs. U.S. of A. lamented. What could have happened to Georgy? He was supposed to show up at that window five minutes ago with our big American flag. Oh, if one of those reprobate Canadians does anything to poor Georgy ooh, there will be another war! Armstrong didn't reply. He just sunk his talons more securely into his perch and unruffled his groomed, white feathers as he stared at a space above one of Canada's Parliament Buildings. lk 'K ill God Bless America! said the huge banner joining the two cross-shaped Towers of Congress. President Jerry Falwell IV beamed up at the banner and the two hidden TV disk-cameras in the 0 of God and the A of America. The multitudes surrounding his huge dais roared their jubilation. Today was the culmination of one of Jolly Jerry's fondest dreams. He was happy. Well hello, little Johnny! said Falwell, bending down to shake the hand of a small boy at his side. That's little John A. the boy's mother, Mrs. Canada, hissed. Oh, bless my soul, l'm sorry, Falwell apologized. Euh, are you sure the beaver's been washed? Sir! whispered an aide. It has a gastro-intestinal disorder. Falwell twitched angrily. Honestly, continued the aide, it was the only one we could get! il il ill A little, gray-suited old man entering the washroom was startled to see George on the floor, crying. Hey, little boy, he said, why are you crying? Forgetting his mother's instructions, George replied, Something's wrong with my card. It won't flash! The little man's mind welled up with anger. This damned American boy! He was a citizen of that country which had conquered most of the world in the New Crusades, spreading the tyranny of the Laws of the God-Fearing throughout the once civilized world. And now they were forcibly trying to annex Canada, previously one of their closest allies! But this boy seemed quite young and innocent. He probably hadn't been corrupted yet. It would be useless to vent any anger on such a subject. Are you lost? he asked ls that it, eh? Sort of, George replied. My mommy told me to appear at the window of the eighteenth floor, and God help me if I was on the wrong floor! Ah! So you're the ..., the little man began. But l've never not used my card before. George cried. Where do I go? Do you know what you are supposed to do is very evil? said the little man sternly. But Mommy said that people who don't obey our president go to Hell! George wailed. The little man, seeing that George was really upset, and not having the heart to let the boy get in trouble, decided to aid him on his way. But you ARE on the eighteenth floor, said the little man. Your card must be broken. f f, 1- U N ONE A DO b uff ' A S But it can't be, George moaned. It's never been wrong before. This can't be the eighteenth floor. It can't be the right height. Not according to my card. Suddenly, the man understood. Oh, I see why now! he said. lk lk Ik There's been a delay?! Falwell screamed to his aide. God help them if this is some sort of trick! We can't wait much longer for their half of the ceremony to begin. God's children can only tolerate a certain amount of impropriety. Ready the Seraphim 7's against that land of Lucifer if it dares dally much longer with God's will. Notify them. They have five minutes! Yes, Sir. Praise God! the aide replied, and left. lk IF Ik Prime Minister Maclean was furious. Why, for God's sake, did you let the boy go up alone? he blasted at Mrs. U.S. of A. We'll be doomed if your son doesn't appear within four minutes! Your emperor couldn't care less if the brat decides to wipe his nose and rest awhile before appearing. PRESIDENT Falwell says that independence in young ones is a virtue. Mrs. U.S. of A. coldly responded. Ill lk if You see, said the little man, here in Canada we don't have Government Belief like you do, but we do have something almost as pervasive er powerful. lt's called 'superstition'g namely, in this case, trichadecaphobia, or the fear of number thirteen. You may be on floor number eighteen, but you're really only on the seventeenth floor from the ground because we have no thirteenth floor! Oh yes, I see! cried George. Thank you. Thank you very much, but I must get upstairs very, very fast then! Here, I'll show you the way, said the little man. They went out into the hall and the little man pointed to a door. Just up these stairs one flight, and there you are. G'bye! George turned around to say good-bye, but the little man had gone. George shrugged and ran up the stairs. There he is! cried one of the guards, as George entered the hall. Quickly, they propelled him to the window and handed him his wig. Standing at the windowsill, little George stepped into the gold gondola attached to a cord leading down to the Prime Minister's podium at the base of the Peace Tower. He smiled down at the throng below, unfurled the American flag, and saluted it. ln the distance he saw his mother, bedecked in her patriot's regalia, standing next to Armstrong and a rather nervous looking Prime Minister. He truly did feel like George Washington crossing the Delaware, as he slowly descended and God Bless America boomed out from the loud speakers. lil lk lk So indeed, the dream has come true, bellowed Falwell. The U.S. of A. and Canada are now a single entity, united with the grace of God! The crowd exploded with AMEN'S. Come here, little John A. Mcdoogal and Mrs. Canada. Let's have one big hug for the warmth of the future. Ik lk lk The little man knew that his treasured way of life was soon to end. He knew and had felt very guilty about the essential part hehad played in the process of achieving Falwell's goal, of which he was now watching the con- summation on his desk monitor. In fact, the whole world was probably watching the final conquest of Canada, but it didn't matter. None of it mattered at all. Not even the threat of Seraphim 7's could matter to the little man now, for he was laughing. His sides were aching and the tears were streaming from his eyes in the ecstasy of revelation. Oh, the paradox, the senselessness and the sanity of it all! Nothing could ever matter after what the beaver did. Jon Lapin T 105 ..... ff z I' N N MEIGHEN ESSAY 2 .' 1 fga Q SECOND PRIZE, GRADE 11 ? CREWMAN CORNELL Ralph Beaveridge, 11 The large cranes swung shipboard carrying their load of netted cargo. The metallic arms heaved crate upon wooden crate over the rails, and then plunged them deep into the ship's blackened hold. Great was the flurry of dock workers. Some yelled orders while others stood, calm and pensive, contemplating the smoke of their cigarettes. Foremen and crew mingled in the din of the loading docks. Then there became visible the figure of a man running at top speed among the turmoil of the dock. In his left hand, he held a wad of papers, while from the right shoulder hung a gunny sack. Elbowing his way through the crowd, he attained the boarding ladder. He clambered to the top, only to be tripped up by his unruly sack. He sprawled to the deck, and nearly upset the first mate in his dive forward. Crewman Cornell, sir, he mumbled sheepishly. 'LMy papers. He reached up to the mate, and offered his wad of assorted sheets. You're late! bellowed the mate. No way to start your first trip. Ever shipped out on lakes freighter before? Once, Cornell retorted. He raised himself from the deck and faced the mate. Get below! We leave in twenty minutes. Cornell gathered up his bag and headed for the hatch. As he staggered across the deck, he regarded their intended cargo for the first time. The crane was still lifting the last of the square crates from the dock to the deck. As they passed overhead on the way to the holds, Cornell noticed a curious lettering on their sides. That's Chinese! mumbled Cornell. He had reached the doorway which led to the ship's interior, and as he slipped inside, his thoughts turned from their mysterious cargo to his new position. Cornell was a determined young man, and one not to let the unfortunate beginning of his career effect the rest of his days with the line. That night a dinner would be the first opportunity he had had to meet his fellow crewman, and he wished to make a suitable impression. The confines of the galley were nothing new to Cornell. The dingy surroundings were standard on a ship designed for transport of bulk and not passengers. After brief introductions and mildly interesting conversation and inquiry about his life, Cornell broached the subject of their cargo. What do you figure we're carrying? he inquired. Buggers me, sang a husky seaman who had been introduced as Crode. That Chinese is real tough to un- derstand, Crode chuckled. lt was blatently obvious that he lacked intelligence. Aren't you even curious?'l prodded Cornell. Not really. This freighter's a laker. As a habit we haul grain. The ship really only hauls one way, that's from Superior out to Montreal. When we can carry stuff in, on our way to get a new load, we do. Don't matter what it is as long as it fits in the hold. Usually find out when we get to harbour anyway. Keeps the job exciting. Cornell did not wish to press the gentleman further. The exact contents of the cases did not really matter. He could figure a bit out on his own. The crates were few and came from China, that he knew. By deduction, he reasoned they must be of some value to have travelled so far. He figured on radios and expensive electronic gadgetry often exported by the Chinese for international trade. That night in his cabin, Cornell considered the possible methods he could employ to regain the favor of the first mate. His thoughts fell once more upon the cargo. Surely, small electronic components needed protection. On a ship, there could be petty thieves, water corrosion or who knows what. The cargo required protection, and he would make it his duty to protect it. The plan was sure to inspire the mate's confidence in him. He started his operations after his watch. Jobs about the freighter included menial labour which was primarily concerned with maintenance and clean up. Being new aboard, Cornell was privileged to be awarded lengthy and laborious duties of the type not carried out by the senior crew members. He worked hard at his regular detail, and when it was completed, he would march his watch around the grain holds. He made his actions as obvious as possible, so that his sincere earnest to help could not be mistaken for anything else. fishes lt was upon one of these rounds that he first proved his worth. The X ship had been traveling in the late fall, and already the thick pack ice, e which forms so treacherously upon the lakes, had developed. The ship itself was not new, having most of its hull tarnished by rust, it was considered by many to be expendable. Leaks were not uncommon, but X were small and presented no more than an occasional menace. It was XQN one such leak that the pounding of ice chunks had created in the hold. NX Pumps could control the leak, but only when it had reached a predetermined level. Cornell knew this, and, upon recognition of the Ralph Beaveridge, 11 problem, sprang to work. The hold was large, and now quite dank. Electronics could rust. There was fortunately few boxes in the particular section, and Cornell found them suprisingly light. So box by box, he shifted the entire contents of the hold to another compartment. He saved the cargo, but the operation took the better part of the night. This was not the last of Cornell's adventures. On another occasion, he caught someone in the hold, and, only after having jumped him, found it to be the lst mate checking for further water leaks. By this time Cornell was becoming quite attached to his duty. He still wondered what it was he so feverishly protected, but he could not open the crates. He resigned himself to the protection of his valuable treasure, and increased his rounds as the ship neared harbour. His exploits did not go unnoticed. Cornell soon became the talk of the ship, as rumour of his strange behavior passed from person to person. He was a key figure at meal hour. There was much discussion over the reasons for his behavior, and even the captain showed a keen interest. By the time the ship reached harbour, Cornell was bathing in his success, but a nervous wreck. He had attained his intended goal, and was well respected for his duty to the line. He was also viewed as somewhat of a screwball. Cornell himself was not, however, concerned with the way the others thought of him. He was totally captivated by the ship's cargo. He had worked so hard at its protection, struggled nights to keep it safe and dry. Lack of sleep only made matters worse. On the appointed day, the crates were once more hoisted clear of the holds. Again the Chinese lettering shone brightly in the sun. As the dock workers fought furiously with their metal machines, the captain approached Cornell as he leaned against the ship's rail. Sorry to see it go, heh boy? exhaulted the captain. Don't take it too hard. We'll haul ping pong balls and party favours again, and he burst into laughter.

His wife was dressed similarly in blue jeans but wore a yellow T-shirt and had her auburn hair tied in a pony tail behind her head. ln the middle of the near field one could see a tall grain elevator forming a dark shape off in the distance against the autumn sky. Check Shirt remarked to Pony Tail, Did ya see some of those policies Mayor Stetson is putting in? Yeah, I wish that urban cowboy would do something for the farmers of this county as well as the bar owners and the guys that make those purple, neon cowboys boots with matching fluorescent jeans. Well, you really have me there. In the Ottawa studio near to Parliament Hill, Prime Minister Pierre Elliot Himself, a balding jetsetter in his early sixties, addressed the question put to him by a tweed-clad scribe from the CBC. Himself also had on tweeds, though the appearance was considerably more natty than that given off by the scribe. Himself always stood out in a crowd, for despite his physical lack of height, he always managed to say something sufficiently obnoxious to warrant the day's media spot. He knew, as well, distinctly who his enemies were, for he had made them, and probably, before this day was out, he would make a few more near to the dominating tower that stuck out poignantly from the overabundant clusters of bureaucratic havens. Tell me, Prime Minister, said the scribe, what do you intend to do about Premier Derrick's resolution to oppose your energy plan? Well, if Mr. Derrick wants to be obstinate But, Prime Minister, what about the growing feeling of disenchantment in the West? Perhaps, to be quite candid with you when you talk of growing disenchantment, I must begin by saying that some of my reading of the West is that it is always disenchanted. ln the years when wheat is good and selling it is disenchantedg if there is too much sun, it is disenchantedg if there is too much rain, it is disenchanted. Hmmm, mused the befuddled university student, and this was only a year after Himself took office. The young collegiate was just perusing through a few books on the topic of Canadian disunity. This particular one consisted of a report made by the Telegram Canada 70 Research Team on alienation and anger in the prairies. As a disciple of political science, he had decided to submit his term paper on the perhaps hackneyed but never over- worked topic. Draped in a grubby, hooded sweatshirt and faded blue jeans, the student noticed the tall outline of a 108 ' X K I, f f if I fl El rf , X 17 1 7. 'Milf . Ifw ' I it 1 ,v ,nl .

Turning his eyes back to the book, this grotty, hunched figure returned to Himself's hoity-toity words of scorn: Is it some sort of alienation? Do the people of the West feel that the people down east do not care? If that is the case it is not so much a question of meeting this disenchantment by specific things, but by convincing the West that the best way to beat this alienation is to get in here and fight. ' If that bastard wants to fight, I'll take his nose and put it right on that shiny spot on his head. Now, Honey, remonstrated Pony Tail, Hthat ole mayor is ugly enough as it is. Besides, he might retaliate by expropriating some land next to our farm and installing a public outhouse for down-and-out skateboard salesmen. He already taxes us enough for the John Travolta Memorial Hall. Hell! What more does he want? I want control! Ack! exclaimed an attractive, blonde young scribe as the shout practically blew her out of her preppy, size five L.L. Bean boots. If you can't control your equipment properly and run this interview efficiently, then I guess I'll have to go elsewhere! ranted Himself at the beleaguered press gallery. Uh, Mr. Prime Minister, piped up the scribe in a trembling voice, do you have any comment on the allegations that your policies are causing a growth of Western separatist feeling? As the poor girl prepared to defend herself from a searing blast of questionable references to her parentage and conception, the self-appointed and semi-deranged demi-god lashed back, If the press had taken the time to research the subject properly Cthis was accompanied with an expression from lOl LOOKS TO SHRIVEL UNDERLINGSD, it would know fGLARE!!!J that there is no real threat of Western separation In actual fact, in mid-1969, the possibility of the West separating from Confederation was extremely remote. More than ninety percent of the people on the Prairies revealed that they consider Canada's survival as a nation very important. Only the tiny seeds of separatist thoughts are there. Boy, things sure have changed, mused the student to himself as he gradually chewed his Bic pen out of existence. Crumpling the sheet of semi-obscene little drawings he had been absently sketching, the student continued on to the next paragraph. But these are dynamic times. What will the thinking be by l980'? We've had our fill of people wearing pink, perforated, paratrooper pants and rhine-studded dog collars that glow in the dark! Yeah, I wish Stetson would do something about them, along with those disco ducks in the charcoal grey suits he's always sending around. 1 sent out my ministers to outline the government's demands.

To my mind, there is no cause for the people in the West to go for such an option. ... However, according to Premier Strom, it would take a man of national stature to stir up the scattered separatist feeling in the West ... than getting a John that flushes ... I feel I've dealt fairly with the West and I'll not change my stance. He did not think such a man was about to come along It would be nice, I think, if once, ... Certainly not overnight. ... but such men have been known to emerge almost overnight ... just once we could have some of the toilet paper as well! It is decidedly impossible. ... Who in the West had heard of Pierre Elliot Himself until 1965? Tim Reid, 10 MEIGHEN ESSAY SECOND PRIZE, GRADE 10 THE FINAL DAYS As the prime minister looked out his window, he saw a beehive of activity. The people of the city moved about in complete congestion and confusion. Constantly toiling and talking, the citizens seemed oblivious of the intense heat and humidity in the air or the filth and mud in the streets. Even the troop transports and tanks frequently passing through the town did not alarm the people rummaging through the fruits and vegetables in the stands at the market. Occasionally, disgracefully emaciated and starving beggars plagued the area in search of food in the nearest garbage cans or gutters. Despite turmoil and disorder in the region, however, the people, accustomed to life in the town, seemed to realize that the day was fairly typical and ordinary. It was hard to imagine, he thought, that revolution was devastating the areas nearby. He knew that most of the people, saddened and victimized by poverty, unemployment, and inflation, were losing faith in his government. Many were convinced that violence was the only way of achieving political change and, subsequently, economic renewal. The prime minister heard the voices of revolutionaries and terrorists through bombings and assassinations. Left-wing rebels clashed with government troops in violent fury. His country was collapsing in front of his eyes. The Prime Minister, Arthur Shelley, was ultimately responsible for governing the nation. Throughout most of his life, the prime minister had been a Canadian. Since his father had been the Canadian ambassador to the nation, however, Shelley had been raised in the country. He had never accepted the foreign culture because he had been raised and educated in the traditional Canadian manner. Because of his intellectual brilliance and his influence in society, he had rapidly climbed the social and political ladder. At the zenith of his career, he had become the prime minister of the nation. Shelley had then promised the people economic and social reforms - visfons he had thought he could realize. He soon discovered, however, that dream and reality were two separate worlds. Attending a conference with his chief advisor, the prime minister was visibly tired and weary. The worry and pressure of maintaining control over the country was evidently overwhelming. His desire for power, fame, and respect, however, drove him out. I-Ie just needed more time to fulfill his commitment to the people. I heard you wanted to see me, started the prime minister. Something about a possible solution to the problems of rebel ac- tivity? The chief advisor responded enthusiastically. Well, not quite a solution. But it's a start. I hope to ... I hope you realize, interrupted Shelley, that support for me has reached rock bottom. I'm in no mood for any more problems. So this scheme of yours better not be one. Sir, with all due respect, said the chief advisor, our main goal is stability. I trust I don't have to remind you of the present situation in this country. His tone was rather ominous and threatening. Look. Let's stop wasting government money and send in the troops. They'll do a hell of a lot to restore order. I agree that we need stability, asserted Shelley. But I can't risk war with the people. I've made enough enemies as it is. You're just complicating things. I'm not taking any chances with ... Sir, just listen, please. You know damn' well that we've got to bring about order. I propose to commit the entire military forces. Troops will be deployed accordingly. You can guess the rest - curfews, task forces ... Now,hold on a minute. You've probably spent a great deal of time on all the details of this plan, but I can't just go through with it. What if a lot of innocent people die? warned Shelley. Besides, there are enough troops already in the streets. But those soldiers patrolling the cities are just substitute policemen. There aren't enough of them and they don't patrol the outskirts where most of the rebels hang out, argued the advisor. Don't you realize that innocent people Q li . Q t S ff ww' it r Y fs are already being killed? If there are any bleeding hearts who get sick when they see troops in the streets, well let I. them bleed. It's something that has to be done. In effect, concluded the prime minister rubbing his blood-drenched eyes, you're stamping out people like insects. That ought to cause a new wave of violence, not to mention mass hysteria. Just imagine what that will do for my political career. You'll destroy my administration and the people. . Left to their own devices, the people will destroy themselves. You're in the driver's seat. You've got to make the ,spy-. iw 1 . 'Z 4-'52 decisions that hurt. After pausing to wipe his forehead, the chief advisor continued on the offensive. Short term pain for long term gain. Unless you shock the people and restore order, the country will get even more out of hand, and it'll only be a matter of time before they get to you. Are you predicting that ...? I'm saying that at any given moment, a million unemployed and starving men are loose in the streets. Even with all the guards, it just takes one man who has nothing to lose - just one man. You maintain the status quo and we'll all regret it. You seem awfully sure of yourself, remarked the prime minister sarcastically. What ...? Sir, I've got to be blunt. You want to hang on to power as long as you can. Nothing wrong with that. Everybody admires an ambitious man but nobody likes a fool, said the advisor calmly. I wish you'd listen to reason, sir. Someone's going to pull the trigger right under your nose. Is that a threat? You decide. All I know is that I'm not going to stand faithfully by your side and get in the way of a bullet. Remember how I covered up the loss of two million dollars in government funds that went into your pocket to pay off your personal bills. Don't be too sure l'll do that again. Sir, I'm serious. I want you to go through with my plan. The prime minister, apparently defeated, maintained silence. You still don't want to do it, right? Well, good-bye. I'll see you at your funeral. Feeling triumphant, the chief advisor emerged from his chair and, in an organized manner, packed his papers into a folder. He then left without casting another glance at the humiliated prime minister. Shelley, feeling tired and hopeless, then conceded, l'll do it. You're blackmailing me, but l'll do it. It was too late, however, for the chief advisor had already departed. The prime minister then rose from his seat and went upstairs to his bedroom to rest. He had not slept in two days. A few days later, after having committed the entire military forces, Prime Minister Arthur Shelley was assassinated. A furious bullet brought his life and his promise to a premature end. His quest for fame was hindered by circumstances beyond his control. Even his small, private funeral was marred by the presence of troops and security personnel guarding against outbursts of terrorism. He had lived alone, and, in the end, he died alone. Immediately after the assassination, Shelley's chief advisor was sworn in as prime minister of the nation. Outward stability was acquired through force and intimidation. Despite promises of comprehensive social security services and a revived economy, the people still felt insecure and threatened. They had little faith in their government.

At anything from sports competitions to school assemblies, even though only the first of its four stanzas is usually sung, the lyric has given Canadians from coast to coast a feeling of pride in being Canadian. A study of the history of our national anthem, O Canada, can impress it and the importance of it to our culture and heritage upon us. The orgins of the national anthem began shortly after confederation, with the preparations for the feast of St. Jean Baptiste, in Quebec City in 1880. A banquet attended by the Governor General, the Marquis of Lorne, and his wife, Princess Louise, was one highlight of the occasion, which involved state and church leaders and attracted visitors from the French communities in the United States and from all across Canada. From the records, it seems that the committee responsible for the celebration had plans to mark the occasion with the inauguration of a patriotic song. A competition, with the winning entry to make its debut on June 24, 1880, was to be held in order to find a patriotic song. As time passed, the organizing group realized that it was too late to initiate the competition. The Lieutenant-Govenor of Quebec, Theordore Robitaille, entered the scene as a result of these events. He asked gifted musician Calixa Lavallee, a leading and popular musician both in Canada and abroad, to compose the music. Within a week, Lavallee has completed a provisional military melody. He had undoubtedly been inspired by the PROCESSION which opens the second act of Mozart's opera, THE MAGIC FLUTE, for the music of O Canada is very similar to this PROCESSION. Robitaille then approached well known Judge Adolphe Basile Routhier of the Quebec Superior Court to write the words for a national song. Routhier proudly created the French lyrics of O Canada, which have remained unchanged since then. The song was played on June 24, 1880, during the banquet, attended by the Marquis of Lorne and Lieutenant- Governor Robitaille. The composition was an instant success and continued to be popular in Quebec from then on. It soon took the place of George Etienne Cartier's tune, O Canada, mon pays, mes amours, which had been first among French-Canadian patriotic songs. At festivals, the new song was sung with great enthusiasm. The music became a favorite with military bands, due to its martial character. The birth and popularity of O Canada reveals the love that French Canadians had for Canada around this time. The song was a symbol of their patriotism and their pride in being a part of the great country. However, for the next twenty years nothing much was heard of O Canada outside Quebec. Around 1900, certain national groups presented propaganda praising Lavallee's song, and at a military camp at Niagara in 1900, the first official English exposure of O Canada took place. Five years later, in 1905, an English version written by Dr. Thomas Bedford Richardson, along with Routhier's original French lyric, was published by a Toronto company. In fact, about twenty English versions were written to accompany Lavallee's music during those early years. In 1908, the 300th anniversary of the founding of Quebec City by Samuel de Champlain was celebrated, this invoked much national fervour. That year, the English version by the Hon. Robert Stanley Weir, Montreal lawyer and Admiralty Judge of the Exchequer Court of Canada, was written. His version was not a translation, it was an independent composition with the theme being: We stand on guard for thee. Stephen Simpson, the grandson of Judge Weir tand who gave me some of my information,l said that the lyric's main idea is that lt's up to the people to stand on guard against ttheirl internal divisions. Judge Weir's reasons for writing the song are evident. It had occurred to him that there was an opportunity to provide English-speaking Canada with English words to the same melody that his French Canadian countrymen were using. Also, he once said: What a fine thing too, if French and English should adopt Lavalle-e's music by common use while, even in the same assembly, singing in their own language. This will be at least one RAPPROCHEMENT, one attempt to secure much-desired Canadian unity. lt was this and his tender feeling for Canada which inspired him to write the words. O Canada immediately became well known to the rest of the country and it is this version that generations of Canadians have adopted as their national anthem, for there is something about its flavour which raises it above others. By the time our country entered World War One, O Canada has become the most popular patriotic song, even exceeding The Maple Leaf Forever . As our brave soldiers fought, O Canada emerged as the song which most thrilled them. It consequently became cherished to those thousands of soldiers to whom it had previously been one of many. For this reason, it also became of sacred importance to all Canadians and grew in popularity. Both the federal and provincial governments gave official recognition of the Weir version on many occasions, and it was used to commemorate the fiftieth anniversary of Confederation, on July 1, 1917. From 1921 on, the song was printed in the public school readers of a number of provinces, and in 1924, the Association of Canadian Clubs endorsed Weir's version, singing it at all meetings. The song's popularity and recognition continued to mount. In 1927, Weir's and Routhier's lyrics were officially published at the Diamond Jubilee of Canadian Confederation, together with the music of Lavallee. They were of- ficially approved again when Their Highnesses, King George VI and Queen Elizabeth, visited Canada in 1939. Canada's Armed Forces adopted the song in 1948. Finally, action towards making O Canada our official national anthem was spurred on in the late sixties. A joint committee of the House of Commons and Senate was formed in order to study the proposals. This came with good reason, since we were one of only a handful of countries with no OFFICIAL ANTHEM. After having heard over one thousand different versions, the Committee unanimously recommended in its report of May 19, 1967, that Judge Weir's version, with only nine word changes, and the original french text of Sir Adolphe Basile Routhier be adopted as the national anthem of our country. The lyrics would be accompanied by Calixa Lavallee's music. However, the recommendation was never implemented by the government and so O Canada remained only a NATIONAL SONG. On June 6, 1980, a pair of commemorative postage stamps were issued to celebrate Canada Day l980. One of the stamps possesses the first five bars of O Canadal' and the other the portraits of Lavallee, Routhier and Weir. The Hon. Francis Fox, Secretary of State and Minister of Communications, introduced, on June 15, 1980, a Bill C-36, entitled the National Anthem Act , a bill which proposed that the recommendation of the 1967 Committee be adopted. There was much concern over the bill from opposition Members of Parliament. The New Democratic Party was worried over the word son in the anthem, since women might take offence. The words native land brought up concerns, for there are many people for whom Canada is home but not their native land. The govern- ment, however, promised to resolve these problems as soon as possible. On June 27, 1980, the bill was given Royal Assent and on July 1, 1980, during Canada Day ceremonies on Parliament Hill, O Canada was officially proclaimed Canada's National Anthem. This past summer, I worked as a research assistant for two Members of Parliament from Alberta. Sitting in the galleries of the House of Commons as the bill was given Royal Assent and participating in the celebrations at Parliament Hill on July 1 gave me a sense of pride. Never before had I experienced such a . I .,-, - ,, 1 ' feeling of nationalism. While lying on the Hill 7- lawn, I noticed the general feeling of all the f U spectators, whether they were francophones or X1 rs anglophones: that is, a feeling of pride in being 2 F ve , AK .qs-Q 4 Canadian. As-everyone sang O Canada and at . watched the fireworks shoot off into the dark Y, . fi , Sign sky, this feeling of togetherness and love for X' , I ,VT , JYI Canada was expressed, as people sang the an- I A ' ' them with vigour and dignity. il ,- ' jr '- gli' 'X - An important contribution to our national ' ,Q .'.l W I , unity has been given by the designation of O ff .g .5. Canada as our official National Anthem. This r' f 'ggi' .- contribution may spur on Canadian nationalism ' Q . and patriotism, giving all Canadians a national ff pride sentiment and enabling a more significant , ' awareness and appreciation of our heritage. The A - 1 : anthem expresses our pride in the founders of our great country and their aspirations and courage, in the vast and resource-rich land, and finally in the growth and development of our country. Canadians are proud of themselves and love their country. Generally, the anthem has, throughout its history, expressed the truth of the existence of a Canadian identity and the values of the Canadian society. The anthem is something all of us in Canada should be proud of. O Canada is enshrined as part of our country's heritage and will continue to be so.

So the other elephant told him that he could get peanuts in the jungle of Africa. There are peanut trees there. So the elephant went to the African jungle. He saw tigers, panthers, and other animals and then he saw what he was looking for, his peanut tree. He pulled and pulled and pulled and his nose got bigger and bigger. Finally, he got his peanuts and all the other elephants did the same thing. Chris Pantelidis, 3 MY LIFE AS A PENCIL A life of a pencil is very dull. All people care about us pencils is that we pencils make it easier to make marks on paper. The people are very strange. They get higher and higher instead of getting shorter and shorter, like us pencils. And some people even chew on us pencils. People always throw us pencils around but people don't know what it's like. But pencils can take pain, people can't. People always sharpen us and that breaks our lead. So as 1 told you, a penciI's life is very dull. And that is what a pencil's life is like, very dull. Jean-Paul Kovalik, 3 e'-' 'I L., Q' VY ' .X 13 . , P ee . Y Fi' A A Y... ' i' ith 1 ., . iaith, .

My story starts here at my mother's shop. Business was as usual. My mom got a call. It was for a pink dress with red, yellow and blue flowers around the waist. I look at the tag. It was for Lesley Goodman, a girl in my class. That night I came in for a snack. I heard someone in the living room. I went to ask where the ice-cream was. When I went in the living room Mom was asking Mrs. Goodman Lesley's size. Mrs. Goodman said about my size. I ran for the door, but Mom shot the dress on me. Just then my dear old brother came in. He had just bought a one step camera. Hi, dear, he said. tl turned around.J Flash went the camera in my eyes. I meant to go after him but I got pricked with pins. Frank showed Lesley the picture and she nearly died laughing. But I got hold of the camera and took a picture of him in the bath.

I never thought I had a short neck. I've got to get my neck lengthened. So Herman went to bed but before he got into bed he said, Tomorrow I will get my long neck, and he did. The next day Herman went to Chuck the beaver. Chuck, he said, I need your help. For what? asked Chuck. 'LFor what! Can't you see my neck is short? Short of what? It's not long! Well, I can fix that. Just stick your head in mud. K'O.K. said Herman. So he did and that is how the ostrich got his long neck. Tom MacKay, 3 HOW THE ZEBRA HAD ITS STRIPES There once was a very big zebra that was in jail.

So the tailor worked on it. The next day, he tried it. It did not fit. the tailor was working. It did not fit. Again, again, and again. I quit, said the tailor. So the policeman painted the stripes on him and that's how the zebra got its stripes. Richard Tang Wai, 3 K, , X, In .csc ef f.. l ..

Jason Guthrie, 3 i If 1, 7' - when a dog came running up to him. He was surprised. The dog stood on his hind legs and put out his paw for a little shake. The boy jumped up in amazement. Is this dog human or not? The dog was so funny that he went to school with him the next day. Everyone laughed so hard that its heart was broken. The teacher walked in and shouted in her loudest voice that you could hear it throughout the school. After that the dog was the best in the class. He knew more Math, English, and even History than anybody in the school. Everyone called him Master. The years went by and he went into high school and even college! When he graduated from college he met a fantastic female dog. They got married and after a few years had puppies, thirty puppies in all. After a while the puppies were all over the garden. They all lived happily ever after. David Mathews, 4 A f xg if in , Q13-3 ,7 'Q Tarek Razek, 7 GOOD GNUS! I think a brand new gnu is very handsome. This was also Santa Claus' feeling the year that he decided to have his sleigh pulled by eight new-born gnus. One of the newest gnu observers has complained of difficulty in telling the difference between an old gnu and a new gnu. However, I know the new gnu secret!! The secret is a new gnu's nose is nearer his knees than an old gnu's. Now you know too, so when you go to a gnu land, you can tell a new gnu from an old! Edward Garson, 4 f U J C52 120 THE ENCHANTED TOOTHBRUSH Once upon a time, long ago, there lived a king who had many valuable possessions. The one he treasured most, oddly enough, was his toothbrush. This toothbrush wasn't made of silver or gold, but it was simply amazing. It would brush his majesty's teeth whenever the king ordered it to do so. The king, most proud, would never let anyone see it. This toothbrush was guarded by four knights and forty-four steel walls, each six inches thick. Every day, his majesty drank soft-drinks and ate the finest meals without a care in the world, knowing that the enchanted toothbrush would take care of the cavity creeps and leave his teeth pearly white. Q Another king wanted this toothbrush very much, so he sent an army of troops to do battle for it. The defending king asked his royal adviser about the matter. This noble one advised the king to rocket the toothbrush into outer space. His majesty did this to save his men. Some day an astronaut might find a strangely-shaped unidentified flying object in outer space and upon its return to earth we would have another generation living with the so-called enchanted toothbrush . ' Eugene Dimitriou 4 X Z Q Howard Adler T ,MI t T5 THE RESCUE One day I was walking along the beach. I saw two people stranded on a rock. It was low tide, but it would soon rise. But why didn't they swim here? I thought. Then I saw a shark. My blood chilled. 1 ran for the Coast Guard. When I came to the office I said, There are two people stranded on a rock with a shark around them at Ship Wrecker's Cove! One of them said, Come on. But another said, Let's get a helicopter. We all rushed to the helicopter. We flew to where I saw them. Sure enough l saw them there. We let down the ladder and they climbed aboard. Then one of them said, It want to thank whoever saw us. Before I could say anything a Coast Guard said, This boy deserves all the credit. Ian Macauley, 4 f, yi' PIO' I .- - 1 . N 4 Qi' Jr-l'- THE RESCUE FROM BEING FRICASSED Charles the rooster came out in front of the chicken coup and walked slowly across the barnyard. Mr. Bean, the farmer, did not have very much money and could not afford buying an alarm clock for his rooster. Charles' job was that he had to jump on the fence and scream, Cock-a-doodle-do at 4:00 a.m. If this was not done Mr. Bean would lose his temper and he would fricasse the rooster for Sunday dinner. Charles had lots of friends in the barn yard: Freddy the pig, ,link the black cat, Christopher the horse, Bow Wow the dog, and many others. All his friends knew about the fricasse business. What can we do about it? said Bow Wow. I know, said Christopher, we can buy an alarm clock with the money we have. So they raised all their money and got an alarm clock. So from now on the rooster got up each day at -1:00 a.m. and yelled Cock-a-doodle-do. Andre Troubetzkoy, 4 HIDE AND SEEK Once upon a time ther was a man he was normal but just for one thing.

During English class, l looked from my seat out the window wearily and saw tired cars meandering along the wet street. The rain wet all the unhappy, tired and wandering people. The dark sky blocked the rays of the sun, giving the city a dark look. The hot and stuffy air blew through the dank sky. The muddy puddles were disrupted by the weary cars travelling down the street. The squirrels were hiding in their dens from the soaking rain as the leaves of dormant trees rustled about in the May wind. The rain fell all around the tired houses and buildings like bombs. Mud lay around the street in dispersed puddles. The fall of the rain onto the cars made a pattern of sound as if it were trying to hypnotize me to sleep. The sound of the falling rain soon made me tired and tired and Driinnngggg! went the class bell which awoke me from my gazing. Chris Naudie, 7 . W , X 21 fd -':'7Qs. lf - . 1- -v sa- fprlu.

The wetness made the buds and small leaves on the trees seem to shine. It made me want to go back to bed. The grey clouds that blotted out the deep blue sky and brilliant yellow sun seemed to say, Go back to bed, sleep all you want, there's nothing to look forward to today. The constant dripping of the rain almost hypnotized me, blocking out all other noises. All that gave the day an evil character, as if the devil had taken it over. Then the thunder and lightning came. It was as if God was all of a sudden fighting back. Then the clouds cleared, the yellow sun came out, and the blue sky appeared through the separating clouds. But it was too late, the sun was going down. But the victory was shown by a clear, starry night with a big full moon. David Jones, 7 GOD He's the ruler of us all, b The skinny, the fat, the big and small. Without our God, we wouldn't be, Neither would the forests or the vast blue sea. For we are His supreme creation, The fruit of hard work and concentration. 'Tis He who keeps the world spinning in space, Watching and guarding it with a glowing face. Seated up there at a great height, Is our God with Jesus to His right. U Making the world a better place, For His beloved human race.

Spring was welcomed by everyoneg however, for some, it was the beginning of a disastrous ordeal: for small harmless creatures so fragile in aspects. ... and as you know, I promise all my fellow ants equality, happiness, and stabilityg and, since you all know and respect me, I have volunteered to place the burden upon myself of forming this ant kingdom into the perfect society. These were the words of lgor Antouski, the words that led to his downfall. Under this new system, the ants of the red army were forced to invade and take over neighbouring sectors to make room for their expanding society and to demonstrate their supremacy. The same night, a small group of highly-powerful red ants organized a cladestine meeting in a deserted beer can to discuss the sudden change in rule. They argued about matters pertaining to equality and stability: subjects which are completely new to them. However, the meeting did not go unnoticedg inform- ants for Antovski stationed everywhere became aware of these meetings and relayed them to Antovski. ... and these ants will be executed for the better of the republic, and obviously, your safety. The only way to prevent a revolt was to execute these 'traitors' before they could spread their ideas of dissatisfactiong however, the population of ants was then wondering how this reflected equality? As the time passed, many more questions arose about Antovski's decisions and how they related to his beliefs of equality, and stability. Just before the large clash with Afgh-ant-istan, Antovski declared that top military ants of the red army would no longer fight with the rest of the ants, but would be stationed at the rear of the ranks sur- veying the immediate situation. Facing a crushing defeat the same day, Antovski immediately declared another ruleg only top military ants would receive full rations during battle because they had to think of strategies to defeat the enemy and conquer their territory. With the growing number of rules, unrest was churning in the hearts of the republicg what had happened to equality? With the continuing fighting between the republic and opposing forces, heavy damages to the ants' living quarters were incurredg Antovski was quick to react. The decision has been madeg all those not par- ticipating in the battles will help rebuild all of the living quarters destroyed in the skirmishes. Another Section will also be added for the top ants of the republic. Until the job is completed, half-rations will be served. This will begin immediately tomorrow at dawn! i The society was becoming uneasy. Since when had ants been treated as slaves? This was not equality! How could there be top ants in a society based 'on equality? Perhaps there were different levels of equality? is X 4. Q .4 ti .r .F if if As the days dragged on, Antovski's power increased I at an incredible rateg equality was becoming almost non-existent, while dictatorship was very apparent. All 1? those who opposed his beliefs had either been banished 1,- or found dead. Radical groups such as the commune were for- Q, med. They preached the old ways of equality, hap- 3 piness, and stability, and respected its founder, Len- W ant. With this new influential force, Antovski took immediate action in dispersing itg he banished the leader of it from the republic. He had supposedly I fraternized with the enemy. With this event, the tension in the Republic was about to erupt. 5' There were now two main parties, the followers of i the old ways and those loyal to Antovski. Throughout i'i the whole republic, the two forces clashed resulting in the deaths of more than half the population of the red 9 army ants. During the skirmishes, Antovski was ' assassinated by a mob of revolutionary proletarian ants outside his living quarters. S After the war was over, only a minute percentage of ,ff red army ants were still alive. Thus, neighbouring l countries were able to waltz right in and take 'over Qi portions of the 'dead' Republic. - . bfi. The disease had yet infected another society.

Some dandy stickhandling by Davi... hold on a minute here! What's going on over in the corner there? Peters is taking a run at Boucher, the big defenseman who set up Davidson on that last goal. They're really swinging away at each other, wow! Boucher just levelled Peters with a devastating right to the jaw! It looks like he's gonna be out for the count! Now everyone's paired up, and we've got some more skirmishes all over the ice. This one could be a while in settling, folks ... What a punch, man! That Boucher! What an excellent goon! Stephen jumped off the sofa of his one-room apartment and imitated the hockey player's swing. He finished off his Molson, flicked off the set and headed out the door. He planned to catch the last period and a half down at the local tavern where he could share his excitement with some other hockey nuts. He hopped the elevator to the lobby, strolled out and down the street to the old pub. He grinned as he entered, half in anticipation, half in remembering the savage fighting he had just watched. Quickly, he made his way to a spot near the large video screen, but midway to the table, he was bumped by a large bearded man who had his hands full with two large pitchers of beer. The stuff sloshed all over the man's coat, and he muttered an angry asshole as he set the pitchers down to dry his clothes off. An annoyed Stephen retorted, It sure as hell wasn't my fault, you jerk.

Stephen replied with a vicious swing just like the one he had seen earlier, only it wasn't quite so clean and simple. He heard and felt jaw bones crushing beneath his fist, and the feeling nauseated him. His hand hurt badly, too. But this was not to be the end. Stephen had knocked over someone else's beer when he had been shoved back, and now more angry drinkers were in the fighting. Before long, it was a full, movie-style brawl, only there was a difference. When it was over, those lucky enough to be standing fled, while numerous others lay badly bruised and in real pain, crying quietly for assistance. Before long, the police arrived and filled out long report sheets to try and record some helpful in- formation towards nabbing someone for the costly damage that the tavern had sustained. Stephen was led off, miserable, by a pair of officers. His arm appeared to be broken, and his clothes were torn. Others were made to wait for medical attention. When all was done, and the place was empty, a lone police sergeant quietly surveyed the damage. Then, his head low, and shaking slowly, he too departed. Ik if 4 All right, Bobby. The game is over. They won. It's bed-time for you now. 1 know, I know, replied the eight year old. But did you see that? Did you see the Boucher pound that other guy? What a wicked fighter!

Jenkins was a young guy, only about 18, and he jumped to conclusions a lot. Anyway, me and young Jenkins were alone, in an obscure narrow lane lined with medium-sized apartment buildings. QSICI Where do we go? Our unit is long gone by now. Yeah, you're right Jenkins. Hey, how about up there? That roof could give us some good protection and an excellent view. O.K., let's go! ' We promptly broke down the door of 17 Oestag Street, and tore up the stairs until we reached the sky light. Breaking this in a similar manner, I hoisted myself up to the gravel-covered roof. As darkness began to settle in, I realized that me and Jenkins were in quite a serious predicament. Food was short, ammo was short, and we were American soldiers in a German town whose name was unknown to us. Blackness was here for the night, and after a dinner of dehydrated beef and some bread, I sat back and started to day dream a bit. The bombs that exploded to separate me and Jenkins from our outfit I missed good ol' Sarge Cooper, the best damn leader I've ever had the pleasure of serving under. Then there was innocent young Schwatz, who could barely kill a spider not to mention a man. Snap out of it, it's time to decide on watch duty. I'll go first, I said. Forget it, I'm already there. I put my kit under my head, and effortlessly fell asleep. ll Ik Sli Waking up, it was just as dark as when I had fallen asleep. Anything interesting happen? I asked. Nothing much. Some lady ran down the road screaming her head off, but nothing came of it. Well, good night. Yeah! I sat up and grasped my gun, making sure the safety was off. You never know what can happen. it tk Ik An hour or so passed, and I managed to stay awake somehow. There was really nothing out there, no lights, no people, just remains. I felt very scared. A faint noise reached my ears. I looked at Jenkins, but he was still in the same position. I heared it again and again, and I realized that someone else was close by. Jenkins! Wake up! C'mon man, get up!', What what's ammater? Someone's here, let's check out the roof top. We both proceeded to scrounge around the entire area, but came up with nothing. Suddenly, I heard it again, distinctly from my left. Hey, it's coming from over here. Let's hide behind this fan. O.K., but then what? I don't know, let's just go! The noises continued and the fear grew into a total state of panic. Then I heard a noise which was definitely a gun being cocked. This told me that whomever it was, must have heard us, and was getting ready. C'mon let's go. ' Go where? We're going after him! Are you crazy or something? Let's stay put and play it safe! Forget it! Are you coming with me or do I go alone? . Alright, I'm comin'. Our boots crushed down softly on the gravel as we finally reached the edge of the building. We need a runnin' start to make this one. I'll go first and hide behind that part of the wall sticking out. Sure thing, Jenkins said still puzzled at the whole prospect. I stopped to think for a minute about the person I was most probably to encounter. He's just the same as us, only under a different flag. He was there just as I was here, scared to death. Hell, it was my duty. I ran swiftly and cleared the roof onto the next building, with Jenkins close behind. We both crept silently, unable to see in front of us, due to the dense black of the night. Faintly I heard that ominous click , I could practically smell someone else so closely that I felt that I could reach out and touch him. lt was for the last time though, as I took hold of my sub-automatic and sprayed bullets everywhere for almost an eternity. I stopped when I heard the morbid thud of a lifeless body. Still, I could not tell who it was due to the darkness. Let's sleep here and wait for the sun to reveal the lousy Nazi you killed. You should get a medal for this! The morning sun's rays awoke our tired bodies to observe our game. Through the dry blood and dead skin was the unmistakable curly moustache of Sarge...Sarge Cooper. My stomach began to erupt. Robert Gialloreto R' ,.. . ,J W xv' f . H , K fi I rf, J' .X X A w i f' Edwin Taguchi, 8 THE DIRTY TRICKS OF J. EDGAR BEAVER J.

THE END The room was silent, except for the sniffles and the occasional whimper of sorrow. The faces were long and drawn. In the corner, perched on the off-white love seat, sat a tall, bearded man. He attempted to hold back his tears, and place himself into a false atmosphere of happiness, but, nevertheless, he failed. Sitting on his lap, held firmly in his arms, sat a slight figure of a lady. Her deep brown hair was parted at. the side, and her cheeks glistened in the firelight. Her eyes were closed and her head lay lightly on her husband's shoulder. Soon, footsteps on the front stairs and the sweet voices of their two young girls were heard, approaching the door. The key entered the lock, and the door swung open. The two girls had met one another along Sherbrooke Street and had walked home together. Friendly speech between the sisters was scarce, but the love inside them was ever-present. They removed their boots in the vestibule and entered the main house, only to be confronted by the dismal at- mosphere. When informed of their mother's cancer, they realized the eventual end. The effects of the disease could only be postponed - the end was inevitable. Previous to the attack of cancer, the family had led a peaceful life, but one full of ups and downs, not unlike any other family. Within the parent - children relationships, however, there had stood two distinct friendships: that of the mother and the younger daughter, the father and the older daughter. The parents had become confidants to whom the children could turn when they needed love. The family had.grown together as friends. One specific problem which struck the family was the elder daughter's need for adventure. She found herself involved with drugs and caught up in a very fast and dangerous life. But whenever she came down, there was always someone there to comfort and help her. Yet, everyone was together and the family unit held strong. The fight against the cancer was a long tedious process, but however difficult, life went on. One victory was won over the disease but it soon returned. The family aided and gave support to their mother, but it was only so long until she would begin to fade. What hurt so much, among other things, was the long-term crippling effect of the cancer. The mother had been such an active person, one who always knew everyone, and who was always loved by everyone. I personally was one who never really had a chance to meet her. Yet, through her family, I feel as if I had known her. l l 1 The room was dim and silent. The family and a few close friends encircled the small bed and tears streamed from their eyes. Slowly, the father bent down and gently kissed his wife's cheek in a farewell gesture. He grasped the sheets and pulled them up to cover the pale Irish face. He turned and walked out of the room. There, he sat on the nearest bench and buried his face in his hands to hide the painful expression on his face. Finally, he thought, the pain and suffering was over. The'next day at the church where the funeral was to take place, people came by the multitudes to bid their last farewell. The organ played softly in the background and all else was silent. The faces were expressionless and all the hearts were full of sorrow. The funeral was brief, yet what had to be said was said. A few notes were said by the immediate family and one very close friend to bid their farewell. But, these would not be their last farewell. The loss of their mother would effect them forever. ll 8 4 In the weeks which followed, much grief was felt in the family. The older daughter, however, seemed the most upset. She had always been closer to her father. Now that her mother had gone, she realized that she had never really known her mother and she was evermore sorrowful. Instead of growing closer to her family, she drifted away into her own world of mourning. The younger daughter, however, had always been closer to her mother. Closer than words could describe She realized how little she knew of her father. It was a difficult task to begin their friendship, and it would take a long time to develop it. Yet, without doing so, the family would have fallen apart. Slowly, during the weeks after the loss of their mother, the family came to the realization that their mother wasn't coming back. Each person, however, regretted the loss and went about his mourning in his own way. Once the family realized that one person could only take so much alone, they grew together and reunited the family unit. John Armstrong, 10 THE SEA Oh Neptune! How could the descendants of those who worshipped you Glare uncaringly at your proud domain and destroy its Inhabitants? Your dolphin-drawn chariot cannot Carry you across your sea. Like the great whales, the dolphin is Herded, Beached, And left to die in the sun. The infant seals, White, small and helpless, Cannot live to see their sea. Killed for control, So says the hunter, But the mothers weep for their little ones. They try to nurse the red, Once white, Remains while scavenger gulls wait to feed On the corpses before flying across the sea. Soaring slowly on the wind A gull looks down at the sea. It then spots another sea, Black, Thick, Menacing in its deceptive appearance. The oil slick waits for a victim, A trap for the unwary bird or fish. This is man's homage to nature, A vile, malodorous thing, Flowing with the currents, Damaging all. Why is man such an ungrateful soul, Reaping destruction wherever he goes?

After suffering quite a few humiliating defeats, the team's confidence was low as their record rested at 1-5, but the team managed to pull itself together. Through much hard work and many long hours on the practice field, the team went form a group of individuals to a well-coached team. Former skeptics were astounded by the remarkable turnaround which occurred. The team proceeded to win its last six games, highlighted by its convincing victory over B.C.S. to win the H.H. Norsworthy Trophy. Much of the team's late success was due to a rejuvenated offence as coached by Robin Wearing. After only scoring twelve points in the first half of the season, the offence put the ball over the goal line enough times to run up a total of 158 points. Led by quarterback Gavin Drummond, running backs, Tom MacFarlane and Bill Zacharkiw and receivers, Amen Nader, Tim Zyto, and Andrew Osterland, the principally running offence con- sistently scored. A previously inexperienced line showed promise towards the end of the season as Sean Cote in particular excelled. Though much of the team's success was due to the offence, not enough can be said about the improvement of the defence. As defensive coach, Eddie Heath would be proud to acknowledge, the players were in shape - and he made him get that way. Linebackers, Gary Groszman, and Matthew Brzezinski almost covered the whole field by them- Reid, Thor Hollywood Valdmanis, Marc Mintzberg, and Andrew Osterland hit directed towards the timely tackling of Robbie Aguayo, Tim Zyto, and Sebastian the whole it was a very memorable season for the whole team, and we would like to Wearing and Heath for picking us up when we were down. selves.

Dowd Despite this year's somewhat disappointing record, the Bantam football squad had a successful season in gaining experience. The team got off to a slow start but, inspired by the running of backs John Higgins, Brian Price, and Eric Blachford, and the quar- terbacking of Nick Tingley, the offence began to roll. This sparked the defense, led by linebackers Rob Drummond and Ian MacPherson, to a startling 25 yards against in the win over our rival, LCC. As our entire defense and much of our offense is due to return next year, we can look forward to a very productive season from the now experienced players, who will hopefully once again be able to receive the great coaching of Mssrs, Beauchamp and Dowd. Finally, although the team could have accomplished nothing were it not for the stars, it could have accomplished even less if it didn't have the lineman, notably Michael Vinovich and Sean Siev, who both protected our quarterback an slammed the opposition into the turf. Our thanks are extended to coaches Beauchamp and Dowd for their excellent coaching throughout the season. Thanks. R 'f 1 V, .sail LX.-.x'.?f R -'v ty., I, 11 ' ,415 .

The team pulled right together to produce several stars. David Stevenson would shine on the left wing and would eventually win most improved player. John Czaharyn, as usual, was most valuable in his position as centre half-back. Other players such as Garth Bray, Christian Broomfield, Paul Sader, and Robert Sephton would also stand out as leaders in the team. Full-backs Shannon, Sader and Stieffenhoffer along with goalie Matthew Ullman would save the games while half-backs such as the Broomfields and forwards like Skinner, Sephton, Stevenson and Reusing would score goals. The team eventually made it to the first round of the G.M.A.A. playoffs but lost a valiant battle. Thanks to coach Mr. Cude for his help and a special thanks for those he has coached for four consecutive years. QL, A. .gtg-:P-'it 'T, MIDGET SOCCER This year the Midget Soccer team underwent the process of rebuilding, consisting of a great number of new grade nines, and a few grade tens. Nevertheless, the team, coached by Mr. Butler and captained by Michael Morden, enjoyed victories against the school's arch-rivals, L.C.C., as well as defeating many other teams. Bruce Brydon, Michael Morden, John Torriani, Heagan Mehnert, and Geoffrey Adams deserve special mention for their per- formances. Many thanks to Mr. Butler for his effort in coaching this team, which next year should be fully developed into a championship-calibre unit. D.S. 149 u SOCCER as ff .e- A Q- A ' 15.93 150 CA BANTAM SOCCER This year's bantam soccer team captained by G. Bray lost to St. Laurent High, the eventual G.M.A.A. winners, 4-1 in the semi-finals. The team played an exciting game with outstanding goaltending from M. Audet. The team included many young grade seven players like W. Black, J. Smith, D. McClaren, K. McCall, A. Hall, G. Bishop, P. Jabal, and others. These youngsters fit in well with the grade eight players like A. Brown, C. Porteous, C. Keene, E. Bunge, J. Ruzius, and T. Razek. The team's overall record was six wins and one loss. In exhibition play, most of the games were played against midget teams, and Selwyn House lost most of them. One of the highlights of the fine season was the goal by C. Porteous after ninety- nine attempts. '.L ,.,. ..e- ...vii-:Li ,Q MIDDLE SCHOOL SOCCER The Middle School Soccer Team made up of grades six and seven and coached by Peter Govan had a fairly im- pressive season. Captained by Jeff Bishop. the team was provided with good goaltending from Marc Audet and the talents of Anders Bard, Andrew Hall, and Bob Lunny. Our most promising player was Jeff Bishop and it is ex- pected that next year's team will rise to even greater heights. Many thanks to Peter Govan for his time and patience. n t - A, v Q' ' I K ,ss ' l X 5 R . , . y ' -tc I ' x. 'X d .I A x yf5fi'2.iJ',iu 5 .

The two doubles teams of Gutierrez-Lupu and Essig-Waag in addition to the singles players, Moore and Lapin, had a sufficient combined point total to win their divisions by decisively beating L.C.C. In doing so, the team qualified for the city championships. Special mention should be given to the doubles team of Gutierrez- Lupu and singles player Moore who, through exceptional play, qualified for the individual championships. Here, Geoffrey Moore dominated his competition and as a result, won the gold medal. JUNIOR BADMINTON This year the Junior Badminton team, under the coaching of Mr. Trembath had a very successful season. The teams came in first in our division and fourth out of all the teams in Montreal. All the players showed excellent progress in the learning skills and strategy of the game. The boys are already looking forward to playing next season and are hoping to win first place overall. uma 5 as 4, 43 Hr 1? i 1 Q, 1 1 fu .X i i 5 Q .F . fglx Q ,fg !' fa Q lv X Q iii i 1.

The Midgets also entered the West Island tour- nament against older players and lost second place by one point. The striking fact about the Midgets this year, though, is that they did not lose to any teams their own age. At the Stanstead Midget tournament Selwyn went undefeated to win the series for another year. 1The team would like to thank the Maples for its inspiration during the tournamentl. Thanks has to be given to Mr. Cude for his fine coaching and to David Ramsay for picking up where Mr. Cude left off. M.I.P. Robby Aguayo M.V.P. Matthew Ullmann BANTAM HOCKEY 80-81 Led by coaches Pierre Beauchamp and Tom Nicoll. this year s Bantam Hockey Team performed admirably. With strong defence, excellent goaltending and fast offence, the team went all the way to the city championships for the second consecutive year. Never has Selwyn House seen better teams than in the past two years, Highlights of the season included the team's trip to Ontario where they played three games against three strong midget teams. The team finished second in the division to qualify for the playoffs. When the team went into the sudden death semirfinal game with Marymount High School, the players knew it was going to be a difficult match. With incredible goaltending, strong physical playing and great desire, the team won 5-2 and advanced to the city finals. Although they lost to College des Eudistes in a 3-2 overtime game, they played extremely well. A fine show! Stephen Clark COACH'S CORNER This year's Bantam Hockey Team played exceedingly well considering its rather slow start. But Coach Tom Nicoll's decision to move defenceman Tom MacFarlane up to centre with John Higgins provided much needed strength down the middle. David Doyle remained on defence and kept the goals-against record the lowest. The team would never have gotten as far as it did without the superb goaltending of John Elkin. Next year promises to be an interesting season because many of the boys will be graduating to the senior level. Remember that weight training and conditioning all summer are a must.

' A A A NN, N X Q A f H T O This year's team captained by K. McCall played twenty one games. After being drubbed by L.C.C. early in the season, the team rebounded in the L.C.C. tournament and made it to the finals where they lost 4-3. The highlight of the season was a seven-goal performance by A. Bard in an 8-6 victory over L.C.C. Outstanding goaltending by J. Turnbull and P. Capombossis kept the games close until Pickward, McCall, and Bard put the puck into the net. Improved performances by Bishop, Jobal, Hart, Molson, and Riordon throughout the season helped S.H.S. rally to turn in solid performances in the last half of the season. The aggressive play of Lunny, Gillet, and Kay will help the team at the bantam level next year. .. ....., ,g.,..ununu-mwsczer-in-q 3 we a 1 156 l Y CURLIN G AND X-COUNTRY SKIING '-'- CURLING This year, the wee Selwyn House Curling team enjoyed great improvement from last year's season. Under the leadership'of Andrew Smith, Anthony Munro, and Esko Kilpinnen, the team moved from third to first place - capturing the city championship. The team would like to thank Mr. Martin for the great coaching all season, his patience and diligence, as well as the Royal Montreal Curling Club for letting us use their superior facilities. ' . .A 1981 SKI REPORT Of all the individual sports, cross-country skiing has to be the most taxing, and the most exhilerating. This year however it also became very hard to find. But true to the sports spirit the largest number of avid skiers in the schools history turned out to brave the terrible conditions. Under the great participatory leadership of Mr. Kershaw, Selwyn House was represented, with at least one boy receiving a gold, silver or bronze medal, at the following races: the l60Km Canadian Ski Marathon, the 50Km Montebello Classic, the 22Km Viking race, and the one 5Km GMAA race. And until the flowers started blooming in early March everyone skied happily on Mount Royal 3-4 times a week. So for next year, Go, Go, Go, and hope for SNOW. lan Aitken, llb '-'- WRESTLING . A el -fe gl., .- , ,av - A. ' P 3? B t J' EE WRESTLING TEAM '80-'81 This year the wrestling team, coached by Rob Wearing and captained by David Skinner, had another successful year. Although we did not win the G.M.A.A. championship, overall this year there were some outstanding wrestling done by several individuals. Team members A. Degeorgis, newcomer I. McPherson, S. Hasko, P. Deleonardis, T. Valdmanis, H. Bernstein, and D. Skinner all had good seasons overall. At the city finals, S. I-lasko and P. Deleonardis won bronze medals, and A. Degeorgis, E. Widdicombe, D. Skinner, C. Broomfield and H. Bernstein won silver medals. In dual meet standing Selwyn House was tied with Alexander Galt for fourth place. This year, again, two Selwyn House wrestlers won the golds in the Quebec Games qualifying tournaments and earned the right to participate in the Quebec Games in Vic- toriaville. David Skinner and Pippo Deleonardis both won the Silver in their respective categories at the games. All in all it was a fun season and the members of the wrestling team would like to thank Mr. Wearing for his great effort. D.S. if 7 Ehff It V7 , AM. L.

'la BANTAM BASKETBALL This year's Bantam Basketball team, under the leadership of captains Jeff Bray and Dale Patterson, had a very successful season. The team, coached by Mr. G. Dowd, came in third in their division and had a remarkable I3 wins, 8 losses record. Some of their greater achievements were winning the consolation round of the Howard S. Billings Bantam Basketball Tournament and winning both of their games while on a trip to Quebec City, beating two of the city's top teams. We all look forward to seeing them play Midget Basketball next year and doing just as good if not better. 159 - BASKETBALL . SES MIDGET BASKETBALL The 1981 version of Selwyn House midget basketball cannot be described as outstanding, but it sure was fun. Under the coaching of Edwin Heath, the team compiled a record of 12-13, highlighted by being the consolation winner at the L.C.C. invitational tournament. Veterans Gavin Drummond and David Pascal led the team in scoring, and Robert Sephton and Derek Eaton provided strong support. The unfortunate thing about this year's team was that it only occasionally reached its potential, usually playing below its potential. Experience might be developed over the summer as several members are going off to basketball camp and many players are looking forward to next season. ni' SQUASH AND TENNIS SQUASH TEAM This year's squash team, under the direction of Gary Butler, enjoyed an active season. Besides the strong extra mural efforts of Chris Eberts, Reed Ballon and Michael Morden, the team involved itself in a highly competitive tournament which saw captain Reed Ballon and Chris Eberts emerge as victors. Good potential was also shown by Robert Keene, Michael Morden, Sebastien Gault and Grant Daly, who are expected to lead next year's team to greater heights. Many thanks to Mr. Butler for his time and effort. The Central Committee 3, ix . - 1' 5'L,,4g.,-x,.5,.' ,Q ' . 'J . SELWYN HOUSE TENNIS TEAM From a group of about twenty, six boys were chosen to represent Selwyn House in the GMAA competition on the 15th of May this year. Jonathan Torriani and Gregory Lupu were selected as our best singles players. Seiji Gutierrez and Geoffrey Moore made up one doubles team and Chris Eberts and Andrew Osterland the other. Two months of practice at the Nun's Island indoor courts must have paid off as Selwyn House did not lose one match tout of 201 in the preliminary round robin. This meant that both singles players and both doubles teams advanced to the final elimination rounds held Tuesday, May 19th. There Lupu, in singles, and the team of Gutierrez and Moore succumbed in close matches in the quarter-finals. Torriani advanced to the semi-final in the singles where he lost to the player who eventually won the singles title. Overall, Selwyn House was second in singles and second in doubles. With the return of five of the six players, our prospects for next year are very good. A ,' if TT!

T SENIOR RUGBY This year's senior rugby team wasn't able to field a team in G.M.A.A. 15-A- side league play because of a change in the age classifications. Instead, exhibition matches were played with B.C.S., L.C.C., and Beaconsfield as well as the B.C.S. ll team. B.C.S. and L.C.C. overwhelmed our boys, however, not without stubborn resistance from S. Gault, C. Broomfield, and mighty mite D. Skinner. The highlight of the season was the G.M.A.A. 7-A-side tournament where S.H.S. lost in the finals to Lachine by the narrowest of margins 6 to 4. The boys distinguished themselves despite playing without John Czaharyn who injured his arm in the semi-final match. Encouraging performances from first year players P. Sadar, T. Reid leave reason for optimism next year. The most valuable back award was presented to S. Gault, and the Martin Borner Memorial Trophy to David Skinner. fl f'-v 'fl' MIDGET RUGBY The immortal words of Eddie Heath marked the beginning of the season for this year's rugby team: You guys are going to work very hard. I want to win two city championships and you guys are going to work until you do! And work hard they did. Fortunately they did win the two city championships, and rather impressively at that. In the GMAA 7-A-side tournament two midget teams were entered. This proved to be an indication of what lay ahead in 15-A-side play, for these teams met in the finals of their age category, the A-team winning. The strong running of the midget back line was the dominant force all through the season, led by Mat Ullmann, Rob Sephton, Gavin Drummond, Tom MacFarlane, David Pascal, and Mike Morden. The forwards proved to everybody that they too were a superior group with their winning tactics against B.C.S. in the championship game. Geoffrey Reford, Pippo DeLeonardis, Andrew Woodall, Hagan Mehnert, Tim Zyto, Rob Drummond, Andrew McKay, and Rob Aguayo were all outstanding. All in all the team compiled a record of 9 and 1, amassing 215 points while only allowing 29. The skillful though somewhat stern coaching of Eddie Heath was the main factor of the team's success. The midget All-Golds, the second midget team, also showed terrific promise throughout the season. Under the superb coaching of Eddie Heath, the team scored two decisive victories against B.C.S. and Rosemount. Although they lost to B.C.S. by a slim margin in the final game of the seasong the opponents barely hung on during the All- Golds' surprisingly strong comeback in the second half. James Soutar, Nick Von Moltke, Derek Eaton, and Ian MacPherson improved greatly while Mike Morden, Pippo DeLeonardis, Sean Cote, Bryan Price, German Delgado, and Colin Chang provided strong consistent play.

After losing the first two games of the season, the team came roaring back. Led by team captains Erik Blachford and Phil Thompson, as well as most understanding forward Dale Paterson and rookie sensation Jeff Bishop, the Bantams won the remainder of their games.The 7-A-side team,comprised of Phil Thompson, Jeff Bray, Mark Audet, Erik Blanchford, Dale Paterson, Jeff Bishop and Bobby Lunny, walked over Bishop's, 19-0, then defeated Lachine in the final for the 7-A-side city championship. With the addition of the speedster Dave Redwood, a fine complement to the slug-it-out formula we already had in the form of Jeff Bray and Mark Audet, the team gathered momentum for the last game against Lachine. The squad defeated them twice en route to their second city championship. Next year, the team will be split as many players are going to midget, but we believe that if the desire is evident, then the unbelievably good coaching techniques of Mr. R. Wearing, who helped us so much this year, will somehow tnold a great team. ,.. li' - 4 'V 11' , V. ., .

The event involving all levels in the School was divided into two sections. Grades 1-3 competed in a number of fun events including an obstacle course, balloon, sack, kneeball, and potato races, and Grades 4-ll participated in the traditional track and field events. Four new records were established this year in field events, but track standards set in past years remained intact against the assaults of a number of talented runners. New distances were achieved in the softball throw by Tim Brierly C11 yr.J, triple-jump by lan Blachford Q10 yr.J, and shot-put by John Higgins Q14 yr.J. The inter-House Championship was won by Macaulay House with Wanstall placing a close second. The meet's top award, the Victor Ludorum, was taken by Paul Broomfield. Individual winners in their respective age categories were as follows: 9 years and under: J. Tsadilasg 10 years: I. Blachford, J. Higgins, tied: ll years: K. Kerr, 12 years: T.
