JIM WITTER J.T. , as he was known, among other less complimentary names, has had a rather checkered career at the school. He was with us for his grade nine year, left in grade ten, and then returned for eleven and twelve at Shawnigan, where he had been sorely missed. Jim was a house prefect in Ripleys, and between him and Sean McMullen, things never got out of hand for long. For some reason, Jim excelled in sports, though we all thought him to be more the scholarly type. He played on the 1st XV for two seasons, and won his school Colours for being such a fine wing. Squash, basketball, sailing, track, swimming all came naturally to J.T. . He was involved in the Outdoors program and all the musicals. Hopefully, he will be able to secure a job next year to keep him occupied and out of trouble; however, the Banks household will not be the same without him. We wish him the best of luck and remind him to keep it hanging, and out of his ear. PHILIP YOUNG P. Young came to Shawnigan in grade nine. Through much hard work, he firmly embedded his name on the Dilligence list. He was a most efficient house prefect in Lakes and an avid sportsman. He propped for the 1st XV for two seasons and was a member of the UK tour party. He also played tennis and badminton. Phil was the first student to take flying lessons, showing his adventurous spirit. One is still not convinced that he was not a Kami-Kazi. Going on to Economics at U.B.C., Phil hopes to follow in his father ' s footsteps, and become a businessman. Good luck Phil, we know you will succeed wherever you go. 28

Fairbank M, Thiessen Copemans House started the year off in great spirits and with high hopes of improving on our fifth place finish in the Challenge cup last year despite the fact that we began the year with Inter-House swimming, a sport in which we have had a stranglehold on fifth place for many a year. Not letting tradition stand in our way we worked hard and to the surprise of everyone we vaulted outof fifth place all the way to fourth. Unfortunately, we started etting in to the habit of fourth place by repeating the pertormance in the ' Round-the-Lake Relay ' . We had high hopes in the music 30
