from the second dorm. — Housser, Martland, Ardagh, Best, Halse, McKechnie, and Ross. During the year also, the J.C.R. was successfully renovated and redecorated, and the art of corner- making brought to perfection by a magnificent spider-web, mahogany-lined creation of Burrows and Arnt. In the summer term, Hicks was awarded the Junior Citizenship Cup for his out- standing efficiency and good spirit. Mr. Bullen returned in September as our Housemaster, and had to assist him in the House, Dewar Miller, Head of the House, and George Keith as School Prefect; Michael Beddall, Kit Malkin, Robin Cromie, and Harold Robertson as House Prefects; and, of course, our good and faithful Matron and friend, Miss Boyd. it it it cJLake ' d rroude I fotes In September, Lake ' s House received a great deal of new blood, more than half the House being new boys. Mr. G. L. Anderson was the new Housemaster and Mrs. Roberts, the House- matron. The House was fortunate in having a strong group of Prefects headed by Peter Mcintosh (Head Boy). Tony Benson and Malcolm McLean were House Prefects. In November, Colin Yorath became a House Prefect and at Christmas Roy Mcintosh replaced Benson, who had been promoted to School Prefect. Incidentally, Benson won the Senior Efficiency Cup during the Michaelmas Term. The House came second in the Swimming. McLean was our most outstanding performer. In the Inter-House Track and Field we slipped to fourth place, most of the points being accumulated by the Under 14 class. Ian Reid was the Under 14 Champion and Patrick Boyd won both the Broad and High Jumps. In the Dramatic side of things, Lake ' s was represented in the Gondoliers by Peter Martin and Peter Culter. The latter was also in the Choir. In the production of the Miser, during the Lent Term, the House was well represented and Reid and Murdoch were outstanding in their parts. M. McLean, P. Pratt, A. Benson and P. Mcintosh played on the 1st XV this year and all were awarded their School Colours during the season. McLean and Pratt brought credit to the House by being chosen to represent the School on the B.C. Centennial Rugby Team. Murdoch captained the 2nd XV and Reid, the Colts XV for most of the season. The latter won the Junior Efficiency Cup during the Lent Term. In the Inter-House Rugby Lake ' s proved that if you don ' t have three-quarters most teams will beat you and thus we suffered defeat at the hands of Copeman ' s House. Robert Murdoch was awarded his House Colours after the game. The School Senior and Under 14 Basketball teams were well supplied with boys from this House and Peter Mcintosh captained the Seniors. Colin Yorath was awarded his School Colours in Basketball. In the Inter-House Basketball, Lake ' s retained the shield. The Open Team won all their games, while the Under 14 ' s lost to Copeman ' s House by the narrow margin of 10-9. The entire Senior Team (P. Mcintosh, R. Mcintosh, M. McLean, C. Yorath and P. Martin) were awarded their House Colours. This year the whole House participated in the Inter-House Cross Country but a few dawdlers spoiled the efforts made by Abramson, who placed second in the Senior, and Reid, who won the Under 14. W. Hansell was our only Boxing weight winner, but we still came second. In the Inter- House Squash Lake ' s was third and in the shooting both teams placed third, with R. Mcintosh shooting a very creditable 99. Lake ' s was decidedly low man on the Academic Totem Pole this year. The only outstanding performers were P. Mcintosh, who won his Academic School Colours in September, and R. Mcintosh and Ian Reid. The former was awarded his House Academic Colours. This was an innovation this year. The summer term was exciting for us in that we either retained or won back some of the silverware which we feel properly belongs to us. The House Efficiency Cup which we lost to Copeman ' s House at the end of the Michaelmas term was returned to our shelf. This is something of which we can all feel proud since every boy in the House contributed to our success. P. Mcintosh won the Sportsmanship Cup again this year and this would be a good place to congratulate him on this and, at the same time, thank him for the admirable job he has done as head of the House this year. Perhaps our greatest joy during this term came on Speech Day. Our rowing crew, which consisted of P. Pratt, R. Mcintosh, R. Murdoch an D. Abramson, came home to win several lengths ahead of the Ripley ' s House boat. There is little credit to be derived from winning Page Twenty-eight
