Jim (1964) A hard worker, Jim Peck proved that his work wasn ' t in vain by getting a perfect 800 on his Maths achievement collegeboard exam. Jim also worked hard in track and in cross-country and occasionally he could be found boning up on his tennis. Next fall, Jim will attend Montreal ' s McGill University, where we under- stand there is an excellent library with complete camping facilities. Esben (1964) A School Prefect, Head of Groves ' House, and Captain of Rowing, Esben Poulsson ' s quiet efficiency and dedication earned him much respect. As president of the Stag Club, 2nd row on the 3rd Fifteen, a member of the Philosophy Club, and Editor of last year ' s Stag, there was hardly a facet of Shawnigan ' s life which ' Esh-bon ' did not have a hand in, including master-imitating (come on, you guys!) We wish him all the best in the Victoria-Maui race this summer, and good luck at U.B.C. in the fall. John (1965) John Randall was without a doubt one of the liveliest members of the Grad. Class and he never tired of coining new cliches. Whether sprinting down the wing on the 1st Game, rowing on the 1st Eight, playing in the Band, or making a detailed study of P.K. ' s Kampen Killing, ' Herb ' was always cheerful and ready to try anything, which in fact he did, performing in the school go-go dancing team, and managing to earn School Colours in Rowing. We wish him all the best as he livens up U.B.C. next year. Lome (1966) Another Copeman ' s House stalwart and House Prefect, Lome Richardson was a valuable member of the 1st Game and the Track Team, as well as an accom- plished drummer and member of the School ' s go-go dancing team. One of the chief ' organizers ' of the Grade 12 deek, Lome ' s physical features came in handy. Starting in the fall, Lome will be seen at S.F.U. Steve (1964) Steve Rothman accomplished a great deal this year. A Ripley ' s House Prefect, he was the backbone of the Film Society and Stage Crew and was largely respon- sible for keeping Rowing Club equipment in good running order. Always willing to lend a hand, Steve was a worthy member of the Stag Club. We wish him luck at B.C.I.T. 28

Don (1965) Don McDiarmid, official school cratoonist, gained fame for his beautiful decorations produced for the Grad. dance. He and Dave Motter have the sincere appreciation of the class for their excellent job. An aggressive break on the 1st Fifteen, ' Don Juan ' was also a member of the Lightweight Eight as well as being guard on the Senior Basketball Team. As Head House Prefect of Ripley ' s House, Don managed to suppress most uprisings by the juniors in the House though the confrontation with Chris Owen was inevitable. Next year Don should be seen drawing cartoons of the teachers at the Calgary School of Fine Arts. Jim (1965) Jim McDiarmid, undoubtedly the tidiest person in the entire Lake ' s House, was the School ' s top Historian this year. Although he caused concern over his occa sional absency, James always made his presence felt when he was about. He followed in his brother ' s footsteps by rowing on the 2nd Eight as 6 and played several games for ' the mighty fourths ' . We wish Jim much success when he enters U.B.C. in September. Rick (1966) The class of ' 68 ' s import from Poland, Rick Maclure was by far 12-A ' s most studious member. Consequently he was continually at the top of the class, fight- ing off the many stout challengers. We feel sure that Mr. Dickens will not soon forget Rick ' s prowess in remembering every detail in the English Lit. book. Out- side of class, ' LP. ' was the top break on the Second Game as well as being a highly skilled sailor. Apart from that, Rick spent much time in the Library al- though he did take the occasional break to have a verbal battle with Pete DeWitt. Next year Rick looks forward to living at home whilst attending U. Vic. Dave (1965) This year Dave Motter could be found perhaps in the gym as captain of Gymnastics or on the fields as scrum-half on the 2nd Fifteen, on the Lake as a member of the 2nd Eight, as senior sculler, or for other reasons, driving the Hunky somewhere (the A W?) or up in the dorm counting his rolls. Always a quick witted chap, Dave was noted for his ' street-corner ' humour. Next fall will probably see Dave as a student at Calgary University. Derek (1963) Derek Paulson, a veteran from Grade Eight days, contributed much to the success of the Grade 12 deek. A Groves ' House Prefect, he also took up position as resident dinner guest at the Pearson ' s, and was runner up in the Snob Car Contest. Shawnigan will be a little quieter without his ' Hhoughh, hhoughh, hhoughh ' echoing through the halls, but at least the confusion as to how many Mr. Grey ' s we had at Shawnigan will be partially solved. Next fall will probably see Derek at the University of Washington State. 27

Tony (1964) One of our imports from south of the Rio Grande, Tony Shepard didn ' t quite succeed in his ambition to hustle every girl at Straths, but he got an ' A ' for his efforts. A pugnacious member of the 1st Game and Eight, ' Hawk ' was also prominent in the Film Society, as a Ripley ' s House Prefect. After a rest at home in I North in September to attend U.B.C., where he will conquest. hard worker on the 2nd various Stage Crews, and lexico City, he will return find many new fields of Dave (1963) A founding member of the ' Kitchen Hustlers ' , Dave Sutherland also enjoyed the atmosphere of the ' Cheen Sha ck! ' A talented guitar player, he could often be found quietly strumming up a tune. Also one of the school ' s top scientists, Dave got quite a charge out of the physics equipment. Next September he will attend U.B.C. Randy (1964) Randy Thomson managed to set a new style in footwear this year, and when ' Rat ' wasn ' t playing rugby on the 2nd Fifteen or running school-colour calibre track, he could be found organizing the dances, inspecting the ' Cheen Shack ' or out on the Lake somewhere. He was also a member of the notorious ' Kitchen Hustlers ' . Next fall he plans to attend U.B.C. Dave (1963) Dave Winslow, one of the Junior House veterans, proved once and for all that there is always ' room at the top ' . Whether he was a peon or Head of Lake ' s, on the 1st Game or 1st Fifteen, in the Choir or Philosophy Club, ' Rudy ' s ' infec- tious sense of humour and independent thought made him a valuable asset to Shawnigan. Next fall he will begin at Amherst where he will undoubtedly miss Mr. Anderson. Greg (1966) Greg Williamson, a Copeman ' s House stalwart and well known patron of the B.C. Ferries, talked and played his way onto the 2nd Fifteen and 1st Hockey Eleven, which he captained, and into the front desk in the Math 12 and Physics 12 classrooms where he kept up good family relations. It is next to impossible to picture ' Bum ' without a smile on his face. We hope U.B.C. won ' t change that. 29
