CHAPEL The services in the Chapel have followed the same format as in recent years (with services for the whole school on Saturdays at 9:00 a.m. and Wednesdays at 8:10 a.m.). Those, at which attendance is voluntary, have been Evening Prayers, on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and Celebrations of Holy Communion on either Friday evenings or Sunday mornings. There have been the usual special services - Thanksgiving, Remem- brance Day and Founder ' s Day, at which the guest speaker - Mr. Ian McPherson, D.F.C., Lake ' s House 1935-39, held the interests of all with many amusing reminiscences and anecdotes. The Festival of Lessons and Carols was again held on the last Sunday of the Fall Term and the offerings were given to Operation Eyesight. During the year, a Font, designed and carved by Jim McCullough and a Ewer crafted by Ted Walker, a local potter, were dedicated in memory of Frank Duxbury 1900-1982. With the whole school as congregation a few weeks later, the Font was used for the baptism of James Peter Roaf, son of old boy Peter Roaf and his wife Beverly. We were again grateful to many members of staff who spoke at the Wednesday morning services and for Steven van Halst, Michael Wild, Stephen Montague and Colin Scott who on many occasions conducted Evening Prayers on Tuesdays and Thursdays. We are also grateful to Messrs. J.S. Grey, D.G. Rolston, and W.J. McCracken for their ready help as Lay Assistants at the Eucharist. The Chapel Committee was also very grateful to Mrs. McClelland and Mrs. McCracken for the fl oral arrangements which added greatly to the atmosphere and the beauty of the Chapel. By the time these notes are read, the Reverend Gordon Payne will have taken over as Chaplain and he and his wife and family have our very best wishes for a fruitful and very happy ministry at Shawnigan.

1ST XV RUGBY 1ST XV Occasionally a season comes along that is beset by in- juries. This season was such a one and only twice were we able to field the same team. This not only made life difficult at the top, but the ripple effect was felt to an even greater degree by the 2nd, 3nd and 4th XV ' s. The playing records of these teams suffered accordingly. The 1st XV never- theless acquitted itself well. Undoubtedly, the most enjoyable game of the season was the final home fixture with St. Michael ' s. We were anxious to atone for the loss we had suffered at their hands earlier in the season. Although we lost again, 15-29, it was an ex- cellent and enjoyable match. It was a severe blow to lose our Captain and fullback, Paul Robinson, (shoulder, and out for a month) and Garth Friesen (leg) to injury in the same
