Bill (1963) Bill Brown, a junior house veteran, has had a busy time this year, as a Ripley ' s House prefect, stroke of the 1st VIII, wing of the 2nd XV, member of the Film Society, of the stage crew, and as a part-time Cricketer. We wish him luck as a member of the U-Vic Olympic four, and as a student of U-Vic where, they understand, they sell lots of ice-cream cones. Laurie (1965) Laurie Bullivant, a speedy hockey forward, won his School Colours in that sport. He was also an active track and cross-country enthusiast as well as a back for the 3rd XV. Laurie ' s biggest surprise was getting a good mark in a Chemistry 12 test earning him the undying envy of the rest of the class. We wish him all the best next fall at U-Vic. Don (1966) Don Bullock, our representative from Seward ' s folly, has accomplished a lot in his final year. Manager of the rowing club, Senior Chorister, and Head Lib- rarian, not to mention his dramatic roles in the Wild Duck and Oliver! are just a few of them. It is small wonder he was elected to the Stag Club. A cheerful guy with a wondrous sense of humour, Don ' s Famous Laugh is probably still echoing around the halls of Shawnigan. In the fall Don plans to attend either U.B.C. or the University of Alaska. Crichy (1967) A latecomer to Shawnigan, Crich Clarke realized he had to make up for lost time and spared no effort to leave his mark on the school. A high scoring forward on both the 1st Hockey Eleven and the 4th Fifteen, ' Pyle ' also achieved recog- nition as a go-go dancer at Grad. If the conversation even lagged. Crich was always ready with a ' Diii — slap me a brown ' to keep it going. His good nature and great sense of humour will make him one of the most unforgettable members of the Grad. Class. Next September he will attend U.B.C. Neil (1963) Neil Comber is the only wetback veteran of the Junior House. His Gonzales- type speediness earned him the position of wing on the 1st Fifteen in mid-season, and left wing on the 1st Hockey Eleven, even though he was fond of falling down. He put his voice to use in the Choir, in ' Oliver! ' in which he had a lead part and in numerous quips. Next fall will probably see Neil zipping around the campus of U.N. A.M. in Mexico City. 23

Dave (1963) In his final year at Shawnigan, Dave Barlow was a School Prefect, a 1st Basketball team member, a 1st Fifteen break forward and wicket keeper of the 1st Eleven. ' Wetback ' was also President of the Film Society and for his academic prowess was awarded his School Academic Colours. This summer Dave will be in his native city Mexico and it could be that the call of B.C. will bring him back up to U.B.C. come September. If not, Dave will probably be seen on the campus of the University of Mexico next year. In any even we wish him all the best! Jim (1964) Jim Blakeway, an active member of the Track and Field team has had a suc- cessful time at Shawnigan. Apart from being a member of last year ' s Europe touring Track Team, ' Wa-Waa ' was this year ' s centre on the 4th fifteen and also achieved a good standard in Cross Country, earning his centipede badge. A member of the famous Biology 12 class, it is unlikely that Jim will leave Mr. Gotthardt ' s memory for some time. We feel sure he will be missed by the house on the hill. Next year Jim should be seen roaming the campus of U-Vic. Kelly (1966) The Chilliwack Kid, Kelly Booth has had a good year, especially in Chemistry 12. A hard-working Hockey aspirant, Kell ' s hockey field humour (not to mention his off-the-pitch-humour) kept things hopping around the school. Up at the House on the Hill Kell was especially active, and was an important factor in keeping grad class spirit high throughout the year. We wish him the best next year at U.B.C. Chris (1965) Chris Bowell has had a good final year at S.L.S.; active as a Lake ' s House prefect, 2nd row forward on the 1st XV, a member of the 1st VIM. choir, and 1st basketball team, and as a visitor to Strathcona. Furthermore, when things were looking down, Chris managed to say something which, unintentionally, would break everyone up. An enthusiastic guitar player, Gert could often be found picking a tune, or perhaps talking on the phone. Next fall he will attend U.B.C. Maurice (1964) Maurice Bridge ' s considerable musical talents were a great asset to Shawni- gan this year. He was active in the Music Festival, in many variety shows, and in Oliver! Also a keen rower and a Groves ' House Prefect, Pendulum worked hard to promote Shawnigan - Queen Margaret ' s relationships and to promote insanity in the Science Departments of Physics and Biology. We wish him all the best at U.B.C. next fall. 22

Pete (1967) Another latecomer, Peter DeWitt nevertheless made his contribution to Shawnigan. He played second-row forward on the 2nd and 3rd Fifteens and accomplished much as a Groves ' House Prefect. Summer saw him in the Rowing Club or perhaps asleep. Grad saw him elsewhere. Pete was always a great one for showing genuine interest in School activities and contributed much to keeping up School Spirit. We wish him luck at U.B.C. in the fall. Ian (1962) A real veteran, Ian Fairweather has made many contributions to Shawnigan. A three year career on the 1st Fifteen saw ' Ebo ' as captain this season. He was also captain of Basketball, and only chronic knee trouble kept him from a great success in Track. His good nature and athletic prowess earned him much respect. In his free time he could often be found in his room (the one with the pitchfork behind the door) writing his daily quota of letters. We wish him luck next year when he enters the banking business. Rick (1964) Well what would we do this year without good old ' Fred ' ? Rick Freeman accomplished much this year as vice-captain of rugby, a member of the 1st Eight and as a Copeman ' s House Prefect. Oh yes, he was another one of those famous go-go dancers, too. A man with a great sense of humour, it would be hard to picture Rick in a bad mood. Although his immediate future is as yet undecided, we wish him luck in whatever he does. Cecil (1967) Cecil Fung was our member from Hong Kong this year. Always active, ' Ceece ' sang in the Choir, took up position as a Librarian, played field hockey and made use of his considerable talents as a musician. Cec will be especially well remem- bered by Mr. MacLachlan ' s Math class because he always seemed to be a page or ten ahead. Next September will probably see him at U.B.C. or U-Vic. Bill (1964) Bill Gould left Shawnigan with a note of success after having won the Snob Car Contest hands down. Bill also enjoyed success however as a member of the 3rd Fifteen, 1st Hockey Eleven, as a Copeman ' s House Prefect and a Houseguest of Mrs. Pearson, where he showed amazing talent as an organ player. It ' s a shame though that he never did master an imitation of Mr. Grey ' s laugh. Next fall, Bill will attend Capilano College for one year before entering U.B.C. 24
