-(? 7 he TRICOLOR THE ANNUAL PUBLICATION OF THE STUDENTS OF STRATHCONA HIGH SCHOOL, EDMONTON, ALBERTA, CANADA Editor: AVERIL BRIGGS Co-Editors: COLLEEN URE SHEENA McKEE Staff Advisor: MR. D. SMITH R. S. SHEPPARD SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS DEDICATION The students of Strathcona High School respectfully dedicate the seventeenth edition of the TRICOLOR to Mr. R. S. Sheppard in this his year of retirement. Mr. Sheppard was born at Belhaven, Ontario. After graduating from the Newmarket High School, he attended the University of Toronto, where he took the Honors Course in mathematics and physics. He not only secured First Class Honors during his entire University course, but on graduating in 1911, was awarded the Gold Medal, donated by the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada to the student taking the highest standing in his final year in Astro-physics. Having secured a fellowship at the University of California, he pursued his studies at at Lick Observatory there the following year. He was appointed teacher of mathematics at Strathcona High School in December, 1912, and eight years later he became principal, which position he occupied until 1938 when he was appointed Assistant Superintendent of Schools in Edmonton. During the time he was teaching at Strathcona High School, he secured at the University of Alberta his degrees as Master of Education and Master of Arts in the Department of Physics. The textbooks in Theoretical and Analytical Geometry that were used in Alberta for many years were written by Mr. Sheppard and Dr. McDougall of the Ottawa Col¬ legiate Institute. Since he became Superintendent of Schools in 1940, Mr. Sheppard has faken an active part in the Canadian Education Association, and has been a Director of the organization during the past five years. Mr. Sheppard has not only been outstanding in his career as a scholar and a teacher, but has also taken a keen and active interest in athletics. For several years he was one of the Governors of the Alberta Amateur Athletic Association of Canada, and was once President of the Edmonton Athletic Association. He holds three Dominion and Provincial records in track and field events, and in 1924 represented Canada in the Hop-Step-and-Jump at the Olympic Games held in Paris. Because Mr. Sheppard is retiring from the position of Superintendent this year and because he was connected with Strathcona High School for over 26 years, it seems very appropriate that our 1955 Year Book should be dedicated to him. We extend to Mr. and Mrs. Sheppard our best wishes for continued health and happiness for many years to come. 3 SCONA DIVISION GARNEAU DIVISION 4 D. R. INNES, M.A. PRINCIPAL 6 ■ : J. A.

IRIS McRAE EDITORIAL In the 1954-55 edition of the Tricolor, we, the staff, have endeavoured to review pictorially and verbally the varied activities in Scona during the past year. Because this year is different from the preceding ones, in that we shall soon say farewell to Old Scona to enter the brand new Strathcona Composite High School in September, we chose as the theme of our year book “The Good Old Days of Scona . By means of photographs, sketches, and other features, we shall take a few glimpses of the past, but before we do, it might be interesting to mention a few highlights in the history of our school. Construction of Strathcona High School commenced in 1907, and two years later the school was opened with Mr. R. S. Jenkins, M.A., as principal. The enrolment was 71, compared with the 890 students enrolled today. At that time, part of the building was occupied by the University of Alberta, and it is interesting to note that Lord Strathcona had the degree of Doctor of Laws conferred on him there. In 1911, Mr. Jenkins resigned, and was succeeded by Mr. G. A. McKee, B.A., who was principal until 1920. In that year Mr. R. S. Sheppard, M.A., M.Ed., became principal, which position he held until 1938, when he was appointed Assistant Superintendent of Schools. In 1938, Garneau High School, which had begun in 1927, Strath¬ cona High School, and the South Side Commercial High School amalgamated to become Strathcona Composite High School under the principalship of Mr. G. W. Robertson, M.A. The union dissolved, however, several years later. The commercial division was taken over by the University, and Garneau High School became independent. In 1949, Mr. Robertson was succeeded by Mr. D. R. Innes, M.A., our present principal, and in the following year Garneau and Scona united to become Strathcona High School. Thus, during its forty-six years of existence, Strathcona High School has seen vast changes. Teachers have come and gone, but their lessons, together with the influence of the school itself, have molded the lives of many graduates who now occupy important positions in the community. Others, too ,of whom Scona is equally proud, have g iven their lives in the service of their country. Only time will tell what the future holds for the students of the new Strathcona Composite High School. Although we have a feeling of nostalgia in departing from the drafty halls which have echoed with voices long since gone, we must leave and turn our attention to the new school. Before we do go, let us take a few moments to reminisce with the Tricolor, not only on the happenings of this year, but also on the days and ways of Scona ' s colorful past. —Averil Briggs, Editor. 12 13 TRICOLOR MR. D. SMITH Advisor AVERIL BRIGGS i 1 ijj§ BftJSSSkl pfi 1|J| I mHM pppy j TRICOLOR STAFF 6 MR. D. R. INNES BOB POLLOCK MR. R. McNAUGHT Hon. President President Advisor PRESIDENT ' S MESSAGE I should like to take this opportunity to express my appreciation for the co-operation of the council as well as the students in making this year at Old Scona such a success. In the athletic field, congratulations are in order for all who took part in school sports and especially for our city champion junior basketball and swim teams. The academic standing of both divisions has risen this year, as can easily be seen by the number of students that have received academic pins. Success was also achieved this year in the social field. Our dances, from the annual Frosh dance to the Graduation Formal, have been enthusiastically supported, making them a financial as well as entertainment success. On behalf of the Students ' Council I should like to extend sincere thanks to Mr. McNaught for the many hours he has devoted, helping us make this year successful. The future looks bright for Scona. Next year we shall be in the new building which will have many of the facilities that were lacking in the past. With proper sized gyms and extra field space, how can Scona go any way but forward in athletic activities? The next year should bring bigger and better dances and social activities, if that is possible. With the new teaching equip¬ ment the academic standards should continue to rise. I only hope that the spirit of enthusiasm of this old school will be transferred, along with its tradition, to the new school. I should like to wish the best of luck to everyone in the new school. In closing may I say that it has been an honor to have served the students of this school as their president, and also a very pleasant experience.

What happened to us here in the last three or four years has been built into our lives and we can never leave it behind. Tennyson ' s Ulysses said, I am a part of all that I have met. In the same sense Strathcona High School is a part of us. What shall we take with us as permanent posses¬ sions from our high school days? Like Ulysses, we can say: Much have I seen and known; cities of men. And manners, climates, councils, governments, Myself not least . . . . We have been led into far places in our studies. We have come to learn something about the wide world and something about ourselves. This will always be a part of our mental equipment. We shall take the friendships we have made. The people with whom we have played and studied and worked on committees have influenced us. Our teachers too have been our friends, perhaps truer friends than we sometimes realized. If we do not remember all they told us, we may still remember the patience and the kindly interest which they showed. We shall take with us a deposit in our characters of good or ill according to the habits we have formed in these years. We shall take some of the laughs, the fun, the games, the work, the worry, the disappointments, the successes. They are written into our personalities. So our word to Strathcona is not farewell. Strathcona High School goes on in each one of us. Let us hope that the world will be a better place because of what we take with us from our high school days. —Elizabeth Edwards, Valedictorian. 20 ELIZABETH EDWARDS Valedictorian EXECUTIVE NORMA ANNE ESDALE Secretary GWENETH NELSON T reasurer CLASS HISTORY As we near the end of our days in high school let us stop for a moment to reminisce over the exciting and profitable years we have spent in Strathcona. Everyone remembers the September morning when we expectantly entered high school for the first time. None of us is likely to forget our plight on initiation day, which, despite our qualms at the time, we all managed to survive somehow. Our last year here has been one of pleasure as well as industry. Who can forget the rugby games last fall or the basketball and swimming meet this winter? We all remember with pride the successes of our athletic teams, which whether in victory or defeat never failed to give their best and never lacked the support of the school. Other experiences will not be soon forgotten either. Remember the fun we had at this year ' s formal and the other dances given by the school. Remember also the pride we felt in the highly successful year play, Junior Miss . Perhaps the most unforgettable thing about a school is its teachers. In years to come we will look back with appreciation for all they have done for us. We will remember also those things about their personalities which added life and color to the classroom, and made the daily routine interesting. The climax to this year ' s activities came with the annual graduation banquet and dance held May 6, at the Macdonald Hotel. This was the perfect ending for a memorable year. The hour of departure is now rapidly approaching. But before we say good-bye and take the next great step in our lives, we wish to extend our gratitude and thanks to Strathcona for all it has done for us. Though we shall face new and challenging problems in the world tomorrow, we go forth confident that this school has fully prepared us to cope with them.

The Strathcona Drama Club has again attained a high standard of proficiency due to the co-operation and enthusiasm of its members. The success of the actual presentation of Junior Miss was typical of the whole production, from the first try-outs onward; it was a good year. The play, running from March 3rd to 5th, packed in the Garneau Auditorium enthusiastic audiences over the all-student production. The three-act play climaxed hours of practice and hard work. Two casts of students alternated for certain parts during the production; the main part, that of Junior Miss , was given a fine portrayal by Alizon Grodeland and Mary Wynne Moar. The basic plot of the play revolved around the Graves family, the time of the year being Christmas. A child of strong imagination, Judy overhears a personal conversation between her father and Ellen Curtis, the boss ' s daughter. Judy and her bosom pal, Fluffy Adams, plot to overcome this imaginative crisis . A mysterious uncle, Willis, returns after a long absence and is happily manoeuvred into a marriage with Ellen. J. B. Curtis, a top-blowing type, becomes quite furious over the unexpected marriage of his daughter and fires Mr. Graves. This act causes family suffering, seemingly hanging its load on the oldest sister, Lois, whose overwhelming popularity with the high school boys promotes many comically tragic scenes . The play ends with all happy, the accomplishment owing to Judy and her first date, Haskell Cummings, Jr. Harry and Grace Graves were played by Don Webber and Audrey Pystoski. Darlene Ostrom and Carol Pritchard gave a fine portrayal of the older sister, Lois. Fluffy Adams was extremely comical, thanks to the fine acting of Betty Sheppard and Ena hAarle Ockers. Ellen Curtis was played very well by Gay Marshall. One character part was made even more outstanding due to the antics of Marlene Neeb, portraying Hilda, the maid. Miss A. E. Polley was the adult advisor and director of the play. She was assisted capably by Mr. O. A. Stratte. Dick Mates was assistant director. Committee heads were made up of: Ruth Fredericks, costume crew; Shirlee Smith, make-up; Maureen Christian, properties; Rosamond Milne, publicity; Vicki Van Vleet, ticket sales. The success of the year play was dependent upon these groups and they did a fine job. A cast party was held again as seems traditional, with the innumerable guests looking back with pleasure and pride at the evident success of the club. 75 STUDENTS ' UNION ROSE BOWL The Students ' Union Rose Bowl was not awarded this year. It is usually presented to the girl who has contributed the most to dramatics during three years of high school. JACKSON BROTHERS ' TROPHY DORAN McMULLlN The Jackson Brothers ' Trophy is awarded annually to the Grade XII boy who has rendered outstanding service to the Drama Club throughout his high school career. Doran McAAullin, this year ' s winner, has acted in the Follies of ' 53 and ' 54, and in Junior Miss this year. He also took part in directing the Follies of ' 54, and during the past year, was publicity manager for the Drama Club. Because of his outstanding contribution to the club, Doran has certainly proved himself worthy of the honour of receiving this trophy.

After an absence of five years, the Scona newspaper, the Spotlight , under the editing of Francis Richards, replaced by Jack Sandercock, appeared once again. Three editions in all came out, each one better and more appre¬ ciated by the students than the one before. The newspaper regularly featured two personality stories as well as current school gossip. Other issues included an alumni column, Tips for Teens, and a Helpful Hearts column. Several interesting sport write-ups were well prepared by three students. Teachers and students alike enjoyed the amusing jokes and cartoons. Congratulations to the Spotlight Staff and to Mr. D. Smith, Advisor, for their fine efforts in bringing back the school newspaper again. 85 CHEERLEADERS Front Row: Janet Wynn, Joy Kisil, Effie Smith, Jean MacDonald, Lorna Kinsey (Basketball Cheerleaders Second Row: Valerie Perring, Mona Mathieson, Shirlee Smith, Barbara Brookes, Evelyn Nelson, Carol Nichol Norma Anne Esdale, Shirley Miller, Rosamond Milne, Shirley Siutsky.

The Football and Basketball Cheerleaders were an important feature of every game held during the year, and their cries of Raise that score ' frequently brought results. Mr. D. Smith was the staff advisor. The Senior Football Cheerleaders were led by Effie Smith and Caro Nicholl. Darlene Ostrom and Jean MacDonald led the junior squad. The two groups, together with members of the football team won the prize in the Eskimo Football Team parade last November.

Fourth Row: Tim Pyrch, Murray Robb, Ron Smith, Conroy van der Lee, Bill Pawluk, Jim Lover, Bill Wiley. JUNIOR RUGBY The Juniors, using the Split-T formation, failed to gain a playoff berth in the junior league. They placed their wins against Westglen and Eastglen, while their losses went to Vic and Sep. Although they lost two games, the juniors provided a good brand of football and each game was a thriller. Special thanks go to the junior cheerleaders and the students that turned out to support the team. SENIOR RUGBY During the 1954-55 season the Senior Football squad ended up in third place in the standings as a result of two wins and two losses. The team, boasting a strong ground attack, placed their wins against Westglen and Eastglen. Their losses went to Vic and Sep. Two Eskimo Football Team stalwarts coached the Seniors. They were Eagle Keys, backfield coach, and Ted Tully, line coach. Bob Pollock and Allen Elock were chosen by the team members as the most valuable players to the team. 89 Front Row: Herb Hammermaster, Keith Kendal, Don Peter (Captain), Howard Tebbutt, Frank Medgin. Second Row: Rod Heise, Adrian Snidanko, Mr. Melnychuk (Coach), Gordon Fester, Don Hamilton. The Seniors won only four out of ten regular games during the season, but the boys proved to be tough opposition to the other teams as they lost their games by a margin of a few points. Although the Seniors failed to make a playoff spot, they placed two players on the High School Senior All-Star team. They were Herb Hammermaster and Gordon Fester. Mr. Melnychuk is to be thanked for his able coaching. Because of the inadequate lighting in the home gym at Garneau, all the home games were played in the Vic gym. This probably accounts for the lack of support which both the Senior and Junior teams needed. ROAD TRIP On March 18th, the Junior Basketball team and a few loyal supporters travelled by chartered bus to Lacombe, where the team played the local high school team. The Lacombe team ' s height helped, because they won 36-27. After the game, refreshments were served. The group returned to the city about one o ' clock Saturday. 90 Front Row: Robert Ratke, Ron Myren, Fred Harreman, Dave Skeels (Captain), Hank Leenders, Harry Beleshko (Assistant Captain), Bob Milligan. Second Row: Cliff Newman, George Kingston, Alex Carre, Allen Elock, Gerry Thom, Mr. M. Smith (Coach). The Juniors captured the Junior Boys ' City Basketball Championship for the 1954-55 season by virtue of a 37-35 win over Sep in the finals. The game was a close contest but Scona came from behind and ousted the St. Joe ' s squad in the fourth quarter to earn the win. The Juniors proved to be the powerhouse of the league because they won nine out of ten regular league games. As a result they ended up in first place. Their only loss went to the Vic Whites. Congratulations go to the members of the team, and to Mr. M. Smith for his fine coaching. Houseleague baseketball was active at both the Scona and Garneau divisions during the winter months. The season was divided into two halves, one before Christmas and one starting immediately after Christmas. Games were played during noon hours, and were sponsored by Mr. D. Smith at the Scona division and Mr. Radomsky at the Garneau division. Captains of the winning teams at Scona were Ed McLachlin, first half, and Garry Baker, second half. Houseleague softball began for the boys at the Scona division after the Easter holidays. Six teams are participating with Mr. M. Smith as the staff advisor. 91 Front Row: Audrey le Maistre, Val Perring, Carol Nicholl (Captain), Barbara Brookes, Shirley Ann Radstaak. Second Row: Sandra Wood, Margaret Shandro, Miss Silk (Coach), Beatrice McKinnon, Pat McClelland. In the Girls ' High School Basketball League our Seniors ran into difficulty and only won one out of their scheduled games. They set up strong opposition for all their opponents and good sportsmanship was much in evidence. Co-captains for the team were Carol Nicholl and Valerie Perring. High scorers for the season were Valerie Perring and Carol Nicholl with 49 and 23 points respectively. Special thanks should be given to Miss Silk for her able coaching. Girls ' House Leagues were very active this year in basketball, volleyball and softball. There was a keen interest in all sports and everyone enjoyed the various activities. The basketball league began in October and ended in February. Shirley Fisher ' s team and Doris Anne Perring ' s team from Garneau and Scona, re¬ spectively, were the winners. Doris Anne ' s team defeated Shirley ' s in the final. High scorers for the season were Connie Stady and Joan Chapman with 35 and 22 points, respectively. Volleyball teams were formed after basketball and many interested students turned out to play. Junior and senior teams were chosen from both divisions to play in the Girls ' Volleyball Tournament of the city. The senior 92 JUNIOR GIRLS ' BASKETBALL Front Row: Leah Baker, Maryetta Thornton, Sharon Nicol, Vickie Van Vliet (Captain), Sandra Macleod, Phyllis Moseley, Gail Hollingshead. Back Row: Carol Fraser, Pat Carnahan, Joey Hampton, Miss Silk (Coach), Linda Hydorn, Ruth Smith. The Strathcona Junior Girls ' Basketball team had a heartbreaking season, losing a majority of their games by a few crucial points. However, they won two out of twelve games. Co-captains for the team were Lorraine Law and Vicki Van Vliet. High scorers were Vicki Van Vliet and Gail Hollingshead with 19 and 14 points respectively. Thanks again to Miss Silk who coached this team through its wins and losses throughout the year. team placed fourth and the junior team placed third. The four best house league teams from Garneau and Scona represented Scona at the Volleyball House League party with Victoria Composite. Fastball leagues were formed affer Easter at both divisions. A school fastball team will be entered in the Girls ' High School Fastball League and will be coached by Miss Silk.. A vote of thanks is due each of the following house league coaches: Miss Brown, Miss Holmgren, Miss Hutton, Miss Milbradt and Miss Staples. The girls of Junior and Senior Basketball teams who helped to coach and to referee were also very much appreciated. 93 Front Row: Audrey le Maistre, Jane Cowles, Diana Babiuk, Vicky Van Vliet.

Third Row: Mike Eurchuk, Don Sangster, Alex Carre, Bob Coyle (Captain), Dennis Lazarowich. For the third consecutive year, Scona won the James Crockett Memorial Trophy in the Inter-High School city swim meet held at the Vic pool March 22. The Scona team placed 127.5 points compared to their closest rival, Vic, which placed 110 points. A Bob Pollock has the final solution for the regulation of big-time football: one squad for offense, one for defense—and one to attend classes. A Do you remember a football team that came up from the South a couple of years ago, and swamped mighty Scona? The nickname for the valiant little team was the praying colonels , because at crucial junctures of a contest all the boys would kneel and pray. Mr. R, Melnychuck remembers that one day in the dressing room the Central coach suddenly cried, Down on your knees. Here comes Grantland Rice . 94 95 TRICOLOR CONTEST The contest, held in February this year, was conducted in five divisions: poetry, essays short stories, art, and photography. We should like to extend our thanks to Miss Staples, Mr. Stratte, Mr. Olsen, and Mr. Ross McBain, who acted as judges. Winners whose entries do not appear in this book are Myrtle Dean, who won second prize in poetry; Bernard Nering, who was awarded second prize in essays; and Carolyn Fether- stonhaugh, given second prize in short stories. A A LITERARY WORK (First Prize in Poetry) —JEAN FRASER. Books are such immortal things Surviving wars and weather; Fastidiously defined as sheaves Of paper bound together. Books exploit the dreams and dreads Of hidden, wondrous worlds; Raising unseen shutters high— Revealing feats not yet unfurled. Amongst the prose we like to read Are fictions, facts and histories; Yet more entrancing—so it seems Are those entangled mysteries. But better still a spiced romance, Even though it is invented, Spins a web of fantasy, Leaves the spirits whole-undented. The authors must be truculent To write such stately stories On different views and aspects Of such undisputed glories. A A FARM IN THE TRANSVAAL (First Prize in Essays) —GILLIAN AMIES. During our childhood, life was very simple. There were periods of three months of school and one month of holiday. The school time was spent miserably in a boarding-school in Johannesburg, where we sat in bare classrooms, slept in bleak dormitories, ate indigestible meals and counted the days until the end of term. During the holidays we lived on a farm in the Magaliesberg hills, in a low, stone-and-thatch house that fitted the hill. It was built on so well that it almost looked part of it. These hills are covered with little thorn-bushes and Mimosa trees, and these are wide valleys with stretches of long, yellow grasses. It is a lonely place, but we did not need company. We had each other. There were four of us; Grandfather, Joyce (we always call my mother by her first name), Rikkie and I. What need was there of anyone else? 96 Grandfather had lived in South Africa for fifty years. The greatest moment of his life had happened when he was in the army, stationed in Bloemfontein. One day he had seen General Smuts and his wife walking in the street, and when he saluted not only did the great man return the salute but his wife smiled and bowed in his direction. That gave Grandfather something to boast about for the rest of his days. He often used to tell us long, enchanting stories about the Boer War, to which Rikkie and I were usually too impatient to listen. When he died, Joyce realised that we would have to sell the farm. She had very little money, and the place was far too big, too useless and too far away from anywhere. Once the decision had been made, we tried to forget about it, and enjoyed ourselves during the short time that remained climbing the kopjes, swimming in the dam in the kloof, and riding for miles on the broad back of Dick, the patient old horse. Joyce became even more distraught and absent-minded than usual, and her control of the household, always inefficient, disappeared altogether. Katrine, the native cook, never produced meals on time, and the two Zulu workers left their jobs and spent hours in the native village in the valley, talking and drinking kaffiar-beer. Sometimes we would leave the house to itself, and, taking sandwiches and chocolate, would go out for the whole day to some favourite place in the hills. The fat black-and-white spaniel. Whisper, who belonged to all of us but only loved Rikkie, would lope along behind us, his tongue trailing out of one side of his mouth, his fur full of black-jack burrs and covered with red-brown dust. At such times, Joyce cheered up and became her usual careless, generous self. She was always very oddly dressed, even in those days, with tattered shirts, slacks and Indian sandals, and she has always had a habit of flinging on jewelry in a haphazard manner— enormous jade earrings, countless bracelets, and strings of queer, semi-precious beads she had bought in Cairo and Algiers. Sometimes we went to the place on the hill where Moseli- katze, the great Zulu chieftain, had his fort. I was bored with what to me was a few piles of stones, but Joyce was thrilled, and used to walk around making dramatic gestures with her arms and saying Fascinating—wonderful. Remind me to bring my things up here one day and paint it. Once or twice we did remind her, but the painting never got done. In Joyce, enormous energy is mixed with a streak of laziness. Now that we were losing the farm, we began to notice things about it that had never mattered before—the pig-sty where three pigs, known as Faith, Hope and Charity, wallowed in dirt and satisfaction—the comfortable lines of the barn, where we kept rabbits, played ping-pong and parked the battered station-wagon that Joyce drove. Joyce has green fingers; everything she plants grows. In the rockery queer, exotic cactuses grew and flowered. It was hard to exchange all this for a small house in the dirt and noise of Johannesburg. It was the nuns at the Mission who first gave us the idea that this exchange might not have to be made. St. Mark ' s Mission is a tiny, poverty-stricken place where a handful of nuns and over a hundred native children struggle together for food, education and religion. Most of all for religion. There is a small, square chapel with white-washed walls, a schoolhouse with dormitories above it, and a few outhouses. One day when I was there I saw a little procession of about sixteen of the native children pass by, each one carrying a brick either on his head or in his hands. They wore clean, worn European clothes. Curiously, I followed them, and found that they were building a rondavel, a small round hut, on a flat piece of ground further up the hill. Sister Theresa, the poorest and happiest person I have ever met, was directing operations, shouting directions in a mixture of Afrikaans and Zulu. -Her robes were indescribably dirty and torn, her hands were blackened and calloused with out-door work and her plump face shone with happiness and sweat. Her work usually consisted of anything from scrubbing floors to ploughing. She explained that they were building rondavels so that they could earn a little money by taking paying-guests. They made their own bricks in a small brick-kilne by the river. I hesitated for a moment, and then decided to help with the building. It is not usual for a European to help a group of natives with their work. 97 That was an afternoon of hard work. The native boys and girls did twice as much as I did, and did not tire so quickly. But they had given me an idea. If they could have paying-guests, why shouldn ' t we? It might be possible to change the farm into a guest-farm. We discussed it. There were drawbacks—hundreds of them. We could not afford the expense of extra building and furniture, and three miles of untarred, uphill cart-track sep¬ arated us from the Rustenburg road. It would be a risk. But Joyce loves risks. A YOUR SERVANT, PETE (First Prize in Short Stories) —DARLENE OSTROM. Although Mulligan and I lived in a college dormitory together for two years, we had not until recently suspected each other ' s motives and the day I, Pete MacIntyre, started my letter to Mulligan ' s sister, I realized my actions were hasty. The letter read in part like this: My dearest, darling, brother Mulligan ' s sister, Patty, I, your most devoted servant (and may I add, the handsomest) regret to inform you that, although I ' m dying to escort you to Sigma Chi ' s biggest dance of the season, I can ' t because of uncontrollable circumstances. This promise, wangled by you in return for that introduction to the blonde (in whom I had but a slight interest), must be delayed. However, I know you realize my heart and wallet are at your disposal and so I implore you to under¬ stand. I must take (as much as I hate to) some redhead from S.A.E. She is . . . As I said, these are uncontrollable circumstances. Your servant, Pete. I got a different form of answer from Patty. It seems in my letter I mentioned the the redhead as being ugly and boring. Patty, being of a sound and cunning mind, sent the letter to the redhead and so I have no date. But consolation is mine—I now have five bucks. I received another letter from Patty who said she believed every word I had written and she understood about the dance. Her letter ended: Although you won ' t rescue a maiden fair from these high-school squares, maybe you ' ll stoop so low as to help one of your own repulsive kind, my brother. Mulligan. He wrote Mother that unless she sent him $10.00 before the dance he was going to destroy himself. Father told Mother that he was going to destroy them both if she did, and she didn ' t. That sounds like a tragedy but is really a panic. Mulligan has $10.00 right in his room but he doesn ' t know it. You know how Mother lives social organizations and the fuss she made when Mulligan at that last function began his speech, Friends, Romans and fellow rubbies. She says she just can ' t understand why Mulligan can ' t speak English and she wants to know what rubby means. Anyway, she sent Mulligan an English book during the fall and told him to be sure and read it. In the book at the place where it says English provides entertainment, she tucked a nice, crisp fen dollar bill. Now every time Mother writes she asks Mulligan if he ' s learning his English. When Mulligan writes he says he ' s learning whole lessons by heart. Mother and I know he ' s lying, ' cause if Mulligan ever found $10.00, the world would know. Get him to glance through it and I ' will consider our debt squared. The fairest of slaves, Patty. 98 I read the letter and had a heart-to-heart talk with myself. It went like this: Pete, I said, the fact that you desperately need ten bucks does not influence your decision, does it? Perish the thought! Besides, a sophomore should not win all the brother ' s money playing poker and then spend it dating the brother ' s girls, should he? Heaven forbid! Buy that book- make all the world your debtor! The argument having been won, I went nto Mulligan ' s room and proceeded according to my plan. Brother Mulligan, I said, you don ' t happen to have an English book, do you? Why certainly I ' ve got an English book! he said. I know what you are, Brother Mulligan. That ' s the reason I want to buy it from you. Your code of English calls more for a voodoo manual. He sat up and stared at me. You want to buy my English book? he gasped. All right, I told him, I ' m on a spot. One of my girls wants me to speak at this big party she ' s throwing and she said to speak correctly, or else. How much money you got? Don ' t talk that way. Brother Mulligan, I said. You can buy a book any place for a buck or so—■ A buck! he screamed. He grabbed a dust-covered volume and presented it to me. See this? My dear Mother sent this book to me. But for the fact that you are my brother pledged unto death, I wouldn ' t part with it. Five bucks. What, you leech, Mulligan—but here. I waved a five at him, threw down the five and ran. An hour later I was still going through the English book. I gave it one last shake and headed for Mulligan ' s room. He wasn ' t there but a letter was. It read: Dear Patty, I ' m sending $3.00. Pete fell for your vengeful scheme. But don ' t stop—write Brother John next. Put $2.00 of this money toward ' s Mother ' s English society. The brothers ' knowledge must be increased. Your brother. Mulligan. P.S. Yes, you ' ve persuaded me to escort my dear sister to the dance. It ' s hard to believe such an honest young man as myself could have a blackmailing sister who would threaten to expose him to his father. P.S., too. Send more English books. Slavery to slang is about to be dissolved. 99 Honourable Mention Anne Chmelyk Second Prize, Barbara Purin PHOTOGRAPHY Vfaife 6. A cute little Frosh. 7. Poor ill-used creature 8.

Alice Long, Myrna lsherwood, Jeannette Hawrelak, Colleen Ure, Janis Dudley, Deanna Shandro. Our Sep. rugby heroes seemed to have attracted a number of girls from Scona, such as Marlene Martin, Zell Ozirny, Doreen Alton, Ev Fenske, Lorna Kinsey, Dee Dee Olson, and Ruth Thomas. Let ' s not forget about our steady couples from Scona—Effie and Harold, Bob and Yvonne, Carol and Dave, Sherry and George, Grace and Pete, Betty Lou and Charlie, Shannon and Wayne. What gives with Dave Ross and Carol Nicholl? Hot one minute and cold the next. Bill Stone seems to prefer hot roddin ' around in a tin can to attending French class. Some boys seem to have all the luck. Could it be that a Cadillac helps the women situation? What happened to Murray Robb for a couple of weeks? Did parting make the heart grow fonder, Joy? Well Ev, what has Vancouver got that is such an attraction? Could it be a certain boy, by any chance? What ' s Dave like outside the boxing ring, Heather?

Haven ' t they got what it takes, or have the Wetaskiwin boys more? Much could be said for the activities of Scona students during the May 24 weekend. Need we look into the details any further? A good time was had by everybody at the final meeting of the M.A.D. Club. Hamburgers, cake, milk, and ice cream were very welcome to the tired-out jivers. 107 Keith Kendall has quite a harem, so we hear. What ' s the formula? Sheena M. seems to have really been having fun in the past year. She has made the rounds from the school to the hospital. Now we hear she has her eye on somebody from Varsity. About the nicest gift a girl could wish for—a fur coat—was received by a Scona girl. That boy ' s worth hanging on to, Shirlee! Perhaps they have an eye on the pocketbooks, as well as the guys; anyway, these girls find the working boys more interesting: Esther Burke, Bev Jones, Shirley Collins, Lorraine Davis, Mel Demers, Chrissie Bray, Roz Milne ,and Shirlee Smith. Vern W. just can ' t seem to make up his mind about going steady with a Grade X girl by the name of Claudia. That little blue Consul” of Lorna ' s has really travelled around lately, from pyjama parties to a trip to Peace River over the long weekend. Six years ago, Scona was fortunate to have Mr. D. Smith begin teaching here. We are certainly sorry to hear that he is leaving us this summer to teach in Europe. BON VOYAGE, MONSIEUR SMITH! A familiar site at noon in Room 4 is Karen W. looking for a Security car. Some boys seem to be lucky enough to drive cars to school. We ' ve noticed Glen ' s streamlined Buick but on the other hand there is a flashy little Jeep we ' ve seen belonging to Dave M. A A blonde told Randy M. that she couldn ' t go out with a perfect stranger. Don ' t worry, he said with a grin, I ' m not perfect . Mr. Ward: Young man, do you know who I am? Bob MacDonald: No sir, but if you remember your address I ' ll take you home. Mr. McNaught: You certainly have to know how to manage classes these days. Mr. Davies: Absolutely. I hit mine only in self-defence. Mr. Heywood (to Pharmacist): Give me some prepared monecetic- acidester of salicylic acid. Druggist: Do you want aspirin? Mr. Heywood: That ' s right. I can never think of that name. 108 IN APPRECIATION At the conclusion of another advertising campaign I should like to extend thanks to those students who spent their time in selling advertising space in the Tricolor. Please remember, Scona students, that without these advertisers the publication of our yearbook would be financially impossible.

And what average will I rate? My curious heart it jumps about, My heart is harboring many a doubt; Slowly I open it up Waiting for the world to erupt. With fear I take a shuddering look. From ice-cold hands I drop my book, I faint, this is the last. Because—my goodness—I passed! —One of the Lucky Ones. V Policeman: So you saw the accident? What was the license number of the car that knocked the man down? Helen Adam: I ' m afraid I ' ve forgotten it, but I remember noticing that if it were multiplied by 50, the cube root of the product would be equal to the sum of the digits reversed. V Bob MacDonald entered a bookstore and stood looking at the shelves. Finally he chose a book entitled Advice to Young Mothers . It ' s a present for a friend of mine who collects moths, he explained to the bookseller. V SAME DIFFERENCE Two little girls on their way home from Sunday School were discussing the day ' s lesson. Do you believe in the Devil? asked one. Oh, no, her little friend replied, It ' s the same story as Sa nta Claus. He ' s your father. V Mr. Rookwood entered a barber shop and climbed into the chair. A haircut, he requested. You haven ' t removed your hat, said the barber.

There was shouting in the classroom quiet, Thy marks are with the last— Old faces will look upon thee, Old forms go trooping past, If thou dost not start cramming With all the lust of fight, At Physics, Chem and Latin Until the verge of night. ■—Mr. M. Smith. As the adding machine said, you can count on me. Every politician, suggests Don Hamilton, should have three hats at all times: one for throwing into the ring, another for throwing into the ring, and a third for pulling rabbits out of if elected. v Mr. Mix sent Bob Pollock to the map during Social class to locate India. He found it with no trouble and then informed the class, “It ' s on the 25 yard line. V Pat Philips: Bring me an order of fish, but leave out Napoleon. Waiter: Would you repeat that? Pat P.: I said bring me an order of fish but leave out the boney part. V ' Stan Baker: You look better today, Anne. How is your cold? Anne Chmelyk: Well, I ' m better than I was before, but I ' m not as good as I was before I got as bad as I am now. Stan B.: Oh. V Famous Lecturer: None of us needs to be downhearted. Whenever I ' m in the dumps I get a new hat. Whisper in the audience: So that ' s where she got it. V CONFESSION ' ' We come to school each morning at nine With a few laggards coming behind. We sit there and stare At each teacher ' s oak chair. Wishing we were in bed And feeling half dead. To show we repent For each teacher we rent A sub once a year So they won ' t have to be here. —Unknown. V Milne was a chemist But Milne is no more.
