The Class of 1975 NICK BANKS Bongo , as Nick was affectionately called, was at Shawnigan for five years. He was a house prefect in Lakes, and he captained many school teams. He was captain of the 2nd XV which toured the UK; captain of Squash and Shooting, and believe it or not, a sailor and skier of some repute. Nick ' s great personality won him many friends and he will long be remembered for his famous smile which got him out of many a tight situation. Next year, he is off to study Pre-Med at the University of Calgary. Best of luck from all of us and remember, always keep that leg shaking. 18

MICHAEL BIRD The big bird has been at Shawnigan for the past three years and has contributed much to school life during his stay. In the field of Athletics, Mike played Senior Basketball for two years and was a member of the 2nd XV which toured the UK. He also dabbled in both ice and grass hockey, tennis and squash. Although many see Mike as a quiet and reserved guy, they often learn how wrong they are, as they watch his antics in the dining room or in the classroom block in Geo. 12. Mike ' s future plans are to attend UBC and to spread his talents between seven girlfriends. TOM BOYLE Tom came to Shawnigan in grade ten from Seattle, and wasted no time in getting into the full scope of school activities, such as smoking, drinking, trespassing, etc. In his senior year, Tom mended many of his ways. He was a Copeman ' s House prefect and ruled with an iron fist. When no disciplining his juniors, he could always be found with Millyard, either over at Strath, or keeping a protective eye on the woods of Shawnigan. His other hobby was photography and he produced many fine pictures during the year. On the games field Tom propped on the 1st XV for two seasons and proved to be one of the best props that the school has had in recent years. He was a member of the UK Rugby Tour and was one of the few players who held his own against his British counterparts. On the water, Tom rowed on the 2nd VIM and was a key member of the European Rowing Tour. Our American Eagle plans to go to the University of Washington and major in Marine Biology. Keep your arm in good shape Tom, and best of luck from all of us. r JOHN BRISTOWE John has been at Shawnigan for the past four years, after having spent the previous six at Glenlyon. He has managed to hold down a position on the Honours or Diligence Rolls despite carrying a heavy non-academic load. As a member of Groves House, he earned his academic house Colours and was a house prefect. John will be remembered for his work in the school musicals, especially after his fine performance as the Pirate Lieutenant in the Pirates of Penzance . He was also a member of the choir and was an editor of the Literary Magazine. In sports, John became an accomplished grass Hockey player, captaining his house and playing on the 1st XI for two years. He also played on the Fabulous 4th XV for two seasons and was a proficient squash player and sailor. John spent every weekend possible in Victoria for reasons best known to himself. Next year he plans to attend UVic and enter the field of psychology. We wish him the best of luck. PETER CLARKE Red came to Shawnigan from Edmonton four years ago. After displaying his pick-pocket skills as one of ' Fagin ' s Gang ' in Oliver , Peter went on to show his skill in sports. He was made house captain in sailing, and with the purchase of a fine FJ, became a very competent sailor. Also, he was house captain for two; and he won both his school and house Colours in this sport. Peter was also a member of the 2nd XV which toured the UK, due not doubt to his playing rugby in Edmonton over the summer break. Off the field, Peter was notorious for falling asleep in class, and for leaving in the general direction of Strathcona after class, from where he would return just as the dinner bell rang. He was also an avid photographer and was the president of the school Photo Club for three years. Peter hopes to go to either N.A.I.T., or B.C.I.T. to study Architecture and undoubtedly follow his father ' s footsteps. We will miss Peter and his tales of his exploits in the Clarke family Mini-Austin. All the best from the class of ' 75. 19
