THE HOUSES RIPLEY ' S HOUSE The House has completed a good year. Though we may not have as many cups as last year, nevertheless the spirit and the enthusiasm in the House has been high. Credit for this enthusiasm must go to the Prefects and House Games Captains, who have, under Mark Os- burn ' s leadership, done a fine job. We started the year with two school prefects: Mark Osburn as head of the house, ably assisted by John Gibson. Andrew Wade was appointed a school prefect at the end of the Easter Term. The house prefects at the end of the year were Bob O ' Callaghan, Dal Grauer, Scott McRae and Charles Sauer. Dal Grauer is to return next year. In the swimming competition we again came third — the House standing. It was partic- ularly encouraging to see that the entire House entered the heats. In the senior finals Grauer won the diving and placed with Hugman in the free style whilst O ' Callaghan placed in the breast stroke. Our under-sixteen team did not distinguish itself other than in the div- ing when Pat O ' Callaghan placed a close second. In the under-fourteen McRae showed considerable promise. 27

In House track and field we placed second to a strong Copeman ' s team. Osburn, Grauer, Coldicutt, Kaiser and Garroway, backed up by many others, did a fine job. The inter-house rugby was again a seven-a-side tournament and was held at the begin- ning of the Easter term. Our senior teams won five out of the six matches to win the tourna- ment. Our junior teams did well to place third. Outstanding in the juniors were Slater, Garroway and Tony Kaiser. In the senior, all players did well; undoubtedly we were fortun- ate in having five members of the 1st XV on our team, but all played a fast, open game. Mark Osburn is to be commended for his captaincy. Inter-house basketball was well contested in all divisions. We lost the senior and under-sixteen games to the respective winners, Copeman ' s and Lake ' s. The most exciting game was playing Groves ' in the under-fourteen when the score was tied 8 — 8 at full time and Berwick of Groves ' sank a long shot in overtime to give Groves ' the victory. R. Ander- son and D. Ingledew played exceptionally well. Inter-house gymnastics was re-instituted this year after a lapse of several years. We won the event with six boys entered, of which Andrew Wade, John Gibson, Graham Hunter, Tony Hugman and Matthew Wade all played in various events. Hunter is to be especially commended for his performances in school and house meets. Inter-house cricket was none too successful from our point of view when we lost the senior to Copeman ' s and the junior to Groves ' . We did however have success in the house leagues, when we won the competition. House rowing was an easy win for Lake ' s, in the senior, and Copeman ' s in the junior. After years of ownership, we lent Groves ' the inter- house squash cup after a very close, exciting series of games. In cadets we had a monopoly of the brass . Bob O ' Callaghan, Tony Hugman, Alan Roaf and Tom Coldicutt were all prominent members. Bob O ' Callaghan is to be congratulated for his leadership in the cadets throughout the year. Most boys took part in plays and concerts during the year. House concerts proved a great success, featuring such groups as Peter and the Shepherds , and Andrew Through the Ages . In school plays Grauer, Tupper and Douglas were prominent. In the academic field some members of the House are to be congratulated. Andrew Wade, Charles Sauer, Richard Anderson and Nick Kaiser all won their Academic Colours. Tom Andrews won the scholarship examination, Barry Marks gained the most points in the academic competition, and John Barclay and Angus obtained steadily good results. The House came second to Groves ' for the Academic Shield. In many ways we played our part. To those leaving the school, we wish every suc- cess. Next year, we trust that effort and endeavour will hold true in the House: ' Acta non VERBA ' . LAKES HOUSE Another year has come and gone at Shawnigan and the day of departure is being met with diverse feelings. Life has been about the same hectic pace this year, but there have been many diversions to while away the time — even academics! The year was initiated with great pride and gusto with the .Inter-house Swimming l- though we were not the overall winners. Mason managed to ' cop ' the under-sixteen cham- pionship. Culter splashed his way to fourth place in the Senior and Keate came fifth behind 28
