BRUNO GOSSEN Bruno enjoys a long refreshing walk to school every morning. He is a reserved, conscientious stu¬ dent, taking his studies quite seriously. Come what may, everything is taken in stride. Like all con¬ noisseurs of good taste, he prefers blondes who wear their hair long. He enjoys most sports but particularly delights ‘in cheering at hockey games. Hobbies of interest to him are reading and photog¬ raphy (strictly amateur). If future plans material¬ ize, he may become an engineer. LYDIA MARTENS She is the happiest g irl in the class, and one can always look to her for a refreshing “giggle.” How¬ ever, this does not prevent her from acquiring good marks. She expresses good ideas in Novel and Comp, periods and is not afraid to argue in German classes (about “Apotheke”?). Lydia has been a great asset to the Collegian Staff, since she wrote the General News all year. She will be seen at the front of a class room after a year. Some school is getting a good teacher. RAYMOND LOEWEN Ray is a lad “full” of energy. He has difficulty releasing his pep in school work but is active in school functions. Ray, as the sports convener, does a good job. He enjoys both football and hockey very much and has an affinity for becoming phy¬ sically battered. No one gets excited any more if he hobbles in swaying on a pair of crutches, or if he sports a swollen black eye. Sometimes we wonder why the hospital seems so attractive to him. Ray finds time to do some serious thinking and thus is our I.S.C.P. class rep. AUDREY PENNER Audrey is a happy-go-lucky lady who enjoys being cheerful. She has many hobbies among which are skating, curling, and singing. She delights in putting the noisy Grade XII class into a panic when she stamps in after recess. She has a great affinity for black coats and black cars and is rarely seen with¬ out Dot. Her studies are diligently attended to and she will achieve her goal soon. She has a noble ambition. In the future Audrey sees herself as a missionary nurse but next year we will see her in Bible School o r in nurses’ training. PAGE TWENTY

CORNIE GOERTZEN Cornie is easy to get along with and happy most of the time, though rarely outspoken. Learning comes quite naturally to him when he pays atten¬ tion or, that is, when he isn’t looking across the room. Till Christmas he travelled daily the ten miles from his dad’s farm to the Colleg’iate, but now he stays in town. His extra activities include watching most inter-school sports, singing in the choir, and working at the local bank. Although his ambition ' is unknown, his plans for the immediate future are to work at the bank in summer. ELVIRA KROEKER Elvira comes to us from that football-enthusiastic district of Landmark. When she is quiet she is either asleep or day-dreaming. Elvira enjoys watch¬ ing sports, reading, and listening to the rad ' io. She looks forward to week-ends with great anticipation. Her neighbours keep her day from being boring. Her intentions are to work in some office for a while and then to enter nurses’ training. IRVIN GOERTZEN Irvin, who is a congenial student, is friendly most of the time, but can become quite hostile if occasion demands ' it. His jolly disposition helps him to make friends easily and he keeps them too. He enjoys bookkeeping, poetry and prose, but at times it seems that his main purpose is to entertain the class throughout the day. Among his many interests are skating and watching hockey games. With his eye on a career in the commercial world, he intends to work in some office next year. MARGARET LOEPPKY Margaret is one of those girls who never seem sad. The sparkle in her lovely brown eyes is an indication of her jolly nature. Her masculine chuckle is a good accompaniment to Lydia’s high notes of laughter. (We have a whole symphony.) Baby¬ sitting, “Words Are Important,” and anything in the line of sports are things that appeal to her. She is a real tomboy when it comes to being on the farm. Riding horseback is her favourite pastime. Her ambition is to be a missionary nurse some day. PAGE NINETEEN

DONALD M ANTI E Don, who comes from the country every morning, has attended the S.C.I. for four years. He complains about assignments but usually has them done. His hobbies are building model airplanes, collecting stamps and messing up Em’s hair. Don is a friendly chap and is well-liked. We frequently catch him day-dreaming on Monday mornings. We wonder why? Maybe the solution lies in the fact that he awakens rather suddenly when anyone pronounces anything similar to “normal.” Don enjoys all sports. He is undecided about the future. HELEN POETKER This is the jovial type of girl who gets along with everyone. She enjoys reading very much, and consequently does not always find time to do her homework. Helen would rather do anything else than Mathematics. That’s why she chose to take History, although this is her favourite subject. Helen enjoys waiting for the school bus because “guess who” also waits for it. Skating and tobog¬ ganing provide an enjoyment for her. Ruth and Helen are seldom seen apart. Her ambition is to become a teacher some day. GILBERT PENNER He joined us this year to take Grade XII after spending a few years in Bible School at Caronport, Sask. Having a cheerful and friendly disposition, he makes friends easily. During the first few weeks he gave our German instructor the ' impression that he was not taking the subject, but Mr. Rempel has been making up for lost time ever since. His ener¬ getic nature enables him to take an active part in extra-curricular activities besides keeping up his studies. He is active in church work, is Vice- President of the I.S.C.F., and is a good actor. He also participated in numerous sports, including foot¬ ball, hockey, and crokinole. SALLY PYLYPIUK Sally has attended the S.C.I. since Grade IX, though her home is in Trentham. She seems to enjoy travelling to school day after day and now feels quite a home in our midst. Though very friendly, she is quiet and reserved. That Sally is very conscientious is evident by the faithfulness w ' ith which her homework is completed. Her hobbies include crocheting, and reading. She enjoys outdoor sports like baseball, volleyball and skating. Her favourite subjects are Maths and recess. After attending summer school Sally plans to try her hand at permit teaching.
