g.C.Best-1966 Rob, full of smiles, jokes and quick retorts, was one of the few new boys to come to the school in grade twelve. He fitted into the school very well, becoming a dynamic forward on the First Fifteen after a half season on the Second Fifteen and was also a member of the Third Eight. Lurch also performed in the school operetta, The Pirates of Penzance . An excellent guitarist, Rob played as lead in the school folk- singing group. In addition, he participated in Civil Defence and was President of the Biology Club. Next year Rob should be seen lurching around the campus of U.B.C. D. M.Burns- 1962 Terry is one of the few surviving terrors of the infamous grade 8 Junior House. Since his earlier days as a grommit , Lem has come a long way. A School Prefect and Head of Lake ' s House, he was also Captain of the Swimming team and played scrum-half on the Second Fifteen. This summer he will be in Europe on the First Eight. He made other contributions to the school such as head of the Guard, on the dance and magazine committees, a server and a member of the Stage Crew. Terry should be seen on the U.B.C. campus next year. 1 2.3. Cairni - 1962 Bob, an enthusiastic member of the Thursday night Philosophy Club made his contri- bution to the School on the academic side. Receiving his School Academic Colours this year, he appeared on T.V. as a member of the School ' s Reach for the Top team. An enthusiastic rugby player, Buck played break on the Third Fifteen. During the Summer Term, he managed to play and win the odd game of tennis between rehearsals for the School play, The Ascent of F-6 . Next year Bob plans to attend U. Vic. where he will major in English. B. e. CU - 1963 Mickey Rat the most carefree happy-go-lucky member of the Grad Class was this year a hard-working prop of the Second Fifteen. He also rowed on the Third Eight. Benj put in a lot of time as prompter in the School operetta and the School play. In addition to this he was an ardent member of S.L.A.S.A. The top historian in the School, Benj could usually be found reading either a biography or Time magazine. Next year Benj will go to Columbia College in Vancouver. We wish him the best in the future. C. W. CLrk - 1964 Cam was a member of 12-S, the hallowed top science form in the school, which he kept lively with his sparkling wit. His athletic achievements included being a strong member of the First Fifteen and fluctuating widely between the First and Second Eights, on one of which he is touring Europe this summer. He was one of the two Copeman ' s House Den of Iniquity inhabitants and he managed to let people know he was around with such finks as the great Classroom Block tieup. Due to his remark- able ability to look older than his years he was a member of S.L.A.S.A. Next year Cam or Bronto will attend McGill or U.B.C, either of which should erupt in chaos. 21

R.S.-AnquS- 1961 Whether training on the top field for track or memorizing his Greek verbs, Tookie always put forth his best. As a School Prefect and Head of Ripley ' s House he went about his job efficiently and thoroughly. He was a School Colour in both Academics and Track. We owe Stuart our thanks for the many hours he spent organizing School dances, singing in operettas and acting in the plays. As a senior member of the Track team Stuart will be running in Europe this summer (with a little of his favorite dish Noodles Romanoff on the side). Next year he will be at either Yale or U.B.C.

A top squash player, Mike is off to Europe this summer with the tour to match his skills in the game against foreign competition.
