She is often seen in an absorbed conversation with Lucille (whatever could it be about?). Her favourite subject is ( ?) and pet expression is ( ?) (sorry, there are none!). Mervyn Unger Merv s ' its in the middle of a “carpoodle” of girls. In his spare time he curls (won 2nd prize in the bonspiel) and is sports correspondent for the Free Press. He would like to be a politician. First, however, he wants to go to University. We wonder why. Margaret Reimer This good-natured girl from Lorette loves telling jokes dur¬ ing study periods. She enjoys sports, eating, week-ends, and popular music. She is quite brilliant during Chemistry per¬ iod and is also a whiz at writ¬ ing essays. Her giggling ses¬ sions with Fran and Jo pro¬ vide the class with ample sound effects. Ambition: nurse. Agnes Suderman Agnes does light housekeep¬ ing with Jeany. She enjoys hockey games, western music and crocheting. Her ambition is stenography. Bookkeeping is this girl’s favourite subject. Why are those week-ends at Lorette always too short? Raymond Wiebe Ray is a tall, athletic, well- liked chap who ' is in school for a purpose. He claims that his absence on Monday mornings has a purpose too! He has con¬ vinced Arnold that laughter is the best medicine—at least in German period. His extra-cur¬ ricular activities include hockey, other sports and a blonde! Ray was sports representative for both terms. He intends to go to Bible school after Grade XII. Lois Wiens What Lois looks forward to most is recess. She manages to sit through classes and voices her opinion when she has one. Her leisure time is spent in making and hearing music, reading and scribbling. She writes social news for the Col¬ legian. Dress designing and radio announcing appeal to her as future careers. Reg Toews “Shorty’s” six and a half feet make him rather outstanding. He is a likeable guy and takes part in many sports and activi¬ ties. During the second term he was our class representative. He just loves to argue with the teachers and believes in getting assignments done. The I.S.C.F. sent him to the Urbana Con¬ ference during the Christmas holidays. Betty Reimer This lively girl usually man¬ ages to get to school just before nine o’clock. What do Betty and Irene find so interesting in their frequent gab sessions ? Betty enjoys listening to the “top fifty.” She is considering sten¬ ography as a future career. Peter Vogt Peter is one of the class’s top comedians and was Vice-Presi¬ dent during the second term. He curls, skates, takes piano les¬ sons, writes for the Collegian and—oh yes! he also goes to school. Pete’s ambition is to be manager of the S.C.I.’s Trouble Makers. His famed expression is, “Not really!” Without Pete our famous Grade XI—1 room would certainly seem boding and empty. His second ambition is to be a doctor. Helga Warkentin Her sweet disposition makes Helga well-liked by her class¬ mates. Many a happy laugh comes from her corner of the room. She expresses her inclina¬ tion toward art, in her hobby— shellcraft. We wonder from where she gets her large collec¬ tion of brooches. Every day she sports a new one. Her sense of humour, kind and conscientious nature, will make her a good nurse. Irene Wiebe Irene is a tall, slim girl. Her interests range from the hit parade to red Buicks. She is usually seen with Betty. Her ambition ‘is to be a stewardess or a private secretary. PAGE THIRTY-ONE
