NEIL WARE The list of Neil ' s accomplishments at the school since his entrance in Grade Eight is considerable indeed; yet it does not reveal his friendly nature and loyalty. Red Devil played his senior year on the 1st XV in rugby and was an effective member of the hockey team. The school captain of field hockey, Neil ' s leadership and high standard of play were an example to all those on the team. An active participant in all aspects of life at Shawnigan, Neil held a role in the musical, Oliver, and was involved with the publication of this annual. A keen member of the graduating class, he was influential in the Grad committee and all those activities connected with the senior class. This had one major drawback — not allowing Neil the time to pursue his interests in several lady friends. His. friends at Shawnigan can only wish Neil good luck next year as he furthers his education at the University of Victoria. KEVIN WHITE It is unfortunate that it was not until his final year that Kevin received the acknowledgement he deserved for his efforts in the school by being awarded the Senior Citizenship Cup. A good long-distance runner, K.P. ' s hard work paid off with fine results in both cross-country and track. His portrayal of Mr. Sowerberry in the musical, Oliver, was tremendous and not surprising as he was no newcomer to the stage, performing in many productions by the Drama group and those of his own creation. Kevin demonstrated his wide range of talents by actively participating in the French Conversation group. The school owes much to Kevin for his tireless efforts in organizing the Spades Club, a group of service-minded boys who were willing to spend their time with the mentally handicapped. Kevin ' s high academic average has allowed him to continue his education at Claremont Men ' s College in California. SANDY WRIGHT Right from his arrival in his Grade Eleven year, Sandy wasted little time in making his impression felt on Shawnigan. Academically, there were but a few boys in the school who could match him. His fine results were a principal reason for the Lonsdale ' s House domination of the Academic Shield in recent years. As captain of the 5th XV, Sandy could always be counted on to give a 110% effort on the field. A keen enthusiast of racquet sports, Sandy played both squash and tennis and his improvement in this area was quite considerable. His linguistic abilities were put to the test in the French Conversation group, while his musical inclination was shown by his participation in the band. In retrospect, it is amazing that Sandy managed to achieve so successfully in the field of academics considering that his thought — and indeed his person — spent much of the time at Q.M.S. Sandy ' s performance at Shawnigan has proven that university will pose little of a problem to him. EDDIE WU Eddie has, since his arrival from Hong Kong in the fall of 1973, impressed all who have known him with his diligent attitude. He has toiled hard in overcoming the problems of working in a second language and the results he has achieved do justice to this effort. A participant in badminton and cross- country, Eddie ' s athletic abilities were found to be in track anf field where he was considered one of the better sprinters in the school. Eddie sang in the school choir for the three years he attended Shawnigan and also developed into a very competent debater. All this activity did, however, leave Ed time to participate in his two favourite pastimes, listening to Beethoven and girl- watching on Movie Nights. Following his graduation, Eddie plans to travel to the United States where he will attend the University of Oregon. p%l li M Mp- •if! J Photos by J. Gotthardt 28
