o % 7 1 r 1 1 § -=r - W ‘So - i All 4 o 7 JOHN MELYNYK John makes good use of his brush cuts (Fleisher’s model). He plans to take up photography to forget Physics. His favorite place “Boston.” LORNE MENSFORTH. Junior The quiet (???) kid who suffers from Mauricitis jokitis. Also the fall guy for a certain femme fatale—for him. SHIRLEY MENSFORTH Shirley “Giggles” Mensforth, Senior, who never saw a double- yolked egg and lost money. Is that hair natural? FRED MOREFIELD Ah! ah! ah! temper! temper! At one time Fred had a very poor barber (or could it be barbers?) and the knickname “Bangs” resulted. CHARLES NOVATNY Charlie’s excuse for his daily excursions down to Eaton’s is that he has to put in time be¬ fore his bus comes. Maybe there’s another attraction! By the way, what happened to that mustache? JEAN OLENYK Congratulations. Jean, on the new addition to your family. Hark! the dogs do bark. A whiz at sports and especially sprint¬ ing and a firm believer in the Wijji Board. LESIA PANKIW It’s “Love, Love, Love,” for our poor henpecked Lesia. A cer¬ tain person persuaded her to reform, at least during school hours. KEN RERIE Ken seems to be doing his chemistry homework. Namely, testing the bleaching properties of F202. It seems to be getting him places, too! JOYCE RIDLEY The quiet little girl who seems to get around after school. Does a slow burn when a certain teacher tries to draw her from her shell. CHARLES ROSTOWSKI Tall, blond and handsome. Fa¬ vorite pastimes supporting our tobogganing parties, conjugat¬ ing German verbs in English period, and delivering a run¬ ning commentary on all re¬ marks passed. DOUG ROLLO The beau with the brush. Fa¬ vorite magazine “Calling All Girls,” favorite show “Bring On the Girls” (when showing at the “College”), favorite . . . girls. P.S.—He likes rugby, too. MAURICE ROSENBERG Seems to be interested in curl¬ ing and not the kind that in¬ cludes a broom and rock. Fa¬ vorite saying, “But. I wasn’t talking, Mr. Bailey!” CARL S PEI DEL Master with the paint and brush. Creator of our room crest (pass the smoked glasses, somebody!) Finds the shortage of bobby pins annoying. SHIRLEY STONE “Rocky” hates anybody named Mackenzie. Captain of the “Techettes” and Quiz Kid No. 1! Likes anything by Danny Kay or Freddie Martin. BOB TANNER Bob would make a good barber as he’s handy with the clippers, to the sorrow of an unhappy member of our class. Good at telling tall stories. MARY-BETTY TURNER Quiz Kid No. 1. We are all anxiously awaiting the day when Madame Counsellor erupts in French class and returns some of the barbs thrown her way. HELEN WATT “Ray! Ray! Ray’!’ New member of our class. Phil’s faithful pupil. Favorite song, “Put That Ring On My Finger!” PAUL ZAMICK Another addition from the armed forces to Room 15. Paul doesn’t believe in taking his holidays when he can. Maybe he got too many in the army. Page Twenty

KAZIMIR CHOPP Kazimir, alias Casey, used to dabble in radio until he took Physics and Chemistry. Gives vent to extra energy by playing Shot’nin Bread’ ' on his har¬ monica. Bet he’s a Drene boy. BERT COHEN Bert has the ambition of Na¬ poleon. He hopes to conquer University. Already the “Little Corporal” is a Flight Sargeant. His smile will do the rest. GERRY DAIEN Gerry, alias “Tootsie,” finds his main interest in electrical engi¬ neering and .... Fun-loving and good natured, he makes a fine friend. SAM DOLOVITCH Sam is best remembered by Mr. Allyson’s immortal words in the Chemistry class, “Sit down, Sam, we’ll hear you next week.” Time was when Sam had long hair. Now he bare-ly makes it. OREST EWANCHYSHYN Orest came all the way down from the frozen north (mush! mush!) so he could come to Tech. He takes it for better or for Arest. SIDNEY FLEISHER Sid is Commander-in-Chief of the Gorilla Forces (the Brush Bridage). and private caretaker of Room 15. He wears dark glasses in class, so he can look at the sun. Guess who! JOHN GOLEBIOSKI John is one of the practically ex-stinct quiet members of the class. If silence is golden, John can sure cash in. Even when the class roars, John chuckles. LEONARD (PORKY) GORDON Len, alias “Porky,” is another of our many humour—(?) ists. specializing in ad-libs, — and the rugby team. HERBERT HALPRIN Herb missed part of the term (lost week-end?) keeping com¬ pany with Scarlet Fever. Sports and sports clothes are his dish. His motto “Buy at Irwins.” BOB HLADY Bob is an air-power enthusiast, and finds it hard to keep his feet on the ground while his heart is in the sky. His smile and good nature make for many happy landings. SAM JURAVSKI Sam is best known for laughing at Bert’s jokes. Thrives on sports and kibitzing. “ ’Twas aspiration drove me on.” An A-l fine fellow. EDGAR KOMADOWSKI Edgar is the centre of fun in our room. His specialty is a free demonstration of the sleep¬ walking scene from Macbeth. His humour makes him every¬ body’s pal. PAT LARMON Pat is Jean’s bosom pal, and they make an insuperable pair (no grammatical error). Her most hateful task is trying to get through the lobby during the noon-hour riot. JOE LERNER Joe. alias “Shoulders,” is the hardest fellow in the room to get around (both ways). Be¬ tween operas he devotes his spare time to trying to preserve some peace in our room. (What peace?) LA VERNA LUCE LaVerne, Alias “Cuddles,” is Mr. Holmes’ best tease victim. She’s an able artist and did half the room write-ups. She exercises great charm on the less fair sex of our room. ALLEN MACKLIN Allen is Sam D’s personal at¬ torney and ally, and they make a tough team in argument. He’s a brush cut fan, with a great amount of personality. roy McDonald Roy is another boogie man. In between bowler hats he spends his time developing a physique. Right now he needs a pair of dumbells. (Any volunteers?) HARVEY McGHIE Our platter-clatter-happy boy! Collects most of his discs on a certa in Saturday program, but swears there’s no foul play. Doesn’t need a calendar, uses his watch. Page Nineteen

XI-21 LOUISE BARAN A lovely blonde—fair in her studies—has some athletic abil¬ ity with a temper that remains hidden until something stirs it up. SHIRLEY BERLIN Take a pair of starry blue eyes and a pair of rosy cheeks and you get our vice-president and first citizen. LORRAINE BRETHAUER Our strawberry blonde with an exceptionally lovely voice, is active in all musical activity. Ambition: Always to please the teachers — and manages to do so. RUTH BUTTERWORTH Ruth is that poised and po pular president of our room. With a grand personality she ranks tops with us. MARGARET CHESELY Tiny, but dynamic Margaret loves to argue.

She is always to be found at Evelyn’s side. CLARENCE HURST The girls’ dream boy. Tall, blonde and good looking. (Need we say more?) XI-21 SHIRLEY GILBY Shirley in school succeeds in looking quiet and demure, but is probably dreaming about a certain Frankie. And it’s not the “Voice” either. JOYCE JONES Joyce is slender, neat and perky with a ready smile and a bub¬ bling laugh. She has a flare for “Dress Designing.” ULDINE KOZACHENKO Uldine is dark, slim and pleas¬ ing.

Outstand¬ ing characteristic: completed assignments. GLORIA LIPCHEN Her special mark of beauty is her ravishing black hair. Be¬ sides this asset she is a good student and is well liked by every“ONE.” JEAN LUBY That gleam of mischief in her eye makes Jean exciting to have around. When in a de¬ mure mood she is still exciting to the boys. EVELYN MAZA Our petite blonde, blue-eyed Evelyn is quiet but is a faith¬ ful worker and gets along well with everyone. YETTA MINUK A lovely brunette with dancing brown eyes. Amiable, easy to get along with ... in short, swell. STEFFIE OLENIK Steffie is quiet and studies. Main characteristic: her fiery temper. Main worry right now: breaking in a pair of high heels. Page Twenty-one
