Matthew Wade (1960) — ' Matt ' can always be depended on to give his best in all his activities; he has excelled as one of the school ' s most outstanding gymnasts and is an ardent squash player and rower. When not involved in these, he takes part in school operettas and is a fanatical shutterbug. Besides all this he has found time to lead his class in academics all year. We all wish him luck in his architecture at the University of Victoria next year. Bob West (1958)— Bob, a Copeman ' s House Prefect, is a stable citizen in our community. His eight years at Shawnigan have resulted in a quietly efficient and sincere person, who usually keeps his thoughts to himself unless roused by an argument. His prowess in sports is shown by school colors in Basketball, and significant careers on the first XV and first XT. The University of Alberta is taking him on as a pre-law student next year. George Westinghouse (1959)— If somebody asked for George, you could safely answer that he could be found on the lake sailing or rowing, in the Big School playing his trombone with the orchestra, or perhaps checking a fag as a Groves ' House Prefect, provided that he wasn ' t just plain studying. With such varied interests and talents, George has left behind him much to be valued, not the least of which is th fleet of sailina boats on the Lake. John Wheaton (1961) — John is- one of the most easy-going and independent members of the class. Though his main interest would seem to be relaxation, his academic color proves that this isn ' t so and he has made great contributions to the Debating Society, the Philosophy Club and to his house, as well as managing the Grad Dance. Next year John is heading east, to McGill, and we can look forward to seeing him in law courts, as always, standing up for what he thinks is right. Dick Williams (1959)— Coming to us from Calgary, Dick has always added a touch of the equestrian to all his activities. A member of the First VIII and Captain of the Second XV, his athletic career is more than balanced by many hours of hard work in the classroom. As Head of the Guard, Dick must have been the proudest boy in the May Inspection. No doubt he will have many more proud moments in his forthcoming trip to Europe. 27

John Pybus (1961)— John ' s captaincy of the first XV to an undefeated season this year was indicative of his fiery leadership and spirit throughout all his years at Shawnigan. He gives 100 per cent effort in whatever he participates in. Tea being one of John ' s favourite brews, he will be going to England this summer, wicketing for the cricket team. After this he plans to attend U.B.C. It is a cer- tainty that his spirit and effort will make him a success in whatever field he chooses. Chris Read (1963) — Chris moved under the eaves of Groves ' House from Peru. His quiet, thoughtful ways soon marked him as one of the more mature boys in our grade and it was a surprise to no one when he was elected a House Prefect in his final year. Actively participating in rugby, basketball and cricket, as well as debating and having a blast, for Chris it has been a productive stay at Shawnigan. Steve Ruttan (1960) — Steve is one of the more silent members of our com- munity. He is often discovered quietly digesting some form of literature while life flows on around him. This pastime made him a valuable member of the ' Reach for the Top ' team and also a walking encyclopaedia of information. His courteous and carefree attitude towards the school and people has made him a pleasant companion, and he has completed, in his own way. a beneficial and full stay at Shawnigan. Ron Tanton (1958) —Ron is one of the harder working boys in the grad class. His efforts in the classroom block have earned him not only the respect of his classmates but also a much deserved academic color, while on the field he has excelled in his scrum position on the Second XV. Also a Ripley ' s House Prefect, an ardent debater, a member of the First XI and a leading light on many a Stage Crew, it is obvious that Ronald has had an enjoyable, and we hope rewarding, stay at Shawnigan. David Tryon (1958)— ' Dave ' is the most ardent sports fan in the school. If there is any fact you want to know just ask Dave. All year he has kept our teams on the front pages of sport columns with his reporting. He came to Shawnigan many years ago and after spending a year in England, returned to leave his mark on the school. With his sometimes serious, and often humorous character, we know he will do well at U.B.C. 26
