(editorial 1 yOO was our Fiftieth Birthday and this we celebrated in various ways. Chief among these ways was our Jubilee Campaign. With the aid of our Governors, parents, Old Boys and friends of the School sufficient funds were raised to provide us with a beautiful Library, a wonderful Gymnasium with Squash Courts, and an Auditorium. Our thanks go out to all who made these things possible. Perhaps this is a good time to pause and take stock of ourselves and see how we are prepared to make our contribution to the next fifty years. A school is not made up only of fine buildings and beautiful grounds; important as these things are. Those of us who are now at the school con- sider ourselves the major component of the School. Are we merely tenants in a fabric provided by others? Are we just putting in time before we move on to other spheres? Or are we prepared to put something into this School which will be of benefit to those who come after; something of ourselves, not just dollars and cents, but ideals, ideas and service. The tendency today is to ask, What ' s in it for me? Shawnigan wasn ' t built that way, nor were the great Colleges and Universities of the world. If we can look back on our time here and feel that we were able to do something to make it a better place for those who come after us, or that others benefitted from having known us, then perhaps and only then may we wear the palm — and deserve it. — Pal-mam qui meruit ferat — -M.A.E.

S ali veie h . A. Ljottltardt Mr. Gotthardt came to Canada from Denmark eighteen years ago. He worked for some years to earn his tuition fees for Carlton University where he achieved his B.A. in 1956. From Carlton he went on to take his M.Sc. in Anatomy at the University of Wisconsin. In 1960 he came to B.C. to enter the Navy as Assistant Area Officer for Sea Cadets. He held this post until 1965. His work with Sea Cadets often brought him to inspect our corps. His interest in the corps and the need for a top Biology teacher brought Mr. Gotthardt to our staff. It is hoped that he will remain here for many years to come. W. WcQar Born and educated in Southern Rhodesia, Mr. McGarry represented his country in Quebec at the International Student Conference in 1962. He obtained his Honors Degree in history in 1964 and was awarded a Rhodes Scholarship which enabled him to complete work for a degree in Politics, Philosophy and Economics at Oxford. He will travel to England in August to be married after which he plans to return to Shawnigan. Mr. McGarry has contributed greatly in rugby, cadets, chess and as housemaster in the junior house. We wish him all the best in future years. a-J™ t, n 5 Iron a Born in Vancouver, Dr. Armstrong attended public school until 1952 when he went to Shawnigan. Four years later he graduated as a school prefect. In his seven years at U.B.C. Dr. Armstrong earned both his B.Sc. and M.Sc. From U.B.C. he went to a university in Wales where he finished last year with a Ph.D. Before returning to Shawnigan, Dr. Armstrong was married in England. Being a professional photographer, he has greatly devel- oped the photography club. For his fine contributions in this and in rugby, our sincere thanks. We wish him the best in the future. P. S. WarA Born in London and educated at Bedford, Mr. Marsh led an active university life at New College, Oxford. There, besides his studies, he rowed on the first crew, played rugby, joined the University orchestra, the Bach choir and pursued his interest in art. Now, as a French and Latin master at Shawnigan, he has developed the clubs he is interested in as well as founding the cine and pottery clubs and leading his rugby group through a most successful year. To him and his wife we wish all the best in the future and we will always remember gratefully his contributions to the school if not his mod clothing. 10
