Grant MacEwan unveils the commem orative plaque at the Official Opening of the new Strathcona-Tweedsmuir School. 4 CHAIRMAN'S ADDRESS iThis address was given by the Chairman of the Board of Governors, Mr. E. David Dover, at the School Closing Exercises, june 77, 7972.2 We have all, if we were fortunate, been in- spired at one time or another in our childhood or youth, to aspire to excellence. john W. Gardner in a book entitled Excel- lence writes: What we must reach for is a conception of perpetual self-discovery, perpetual reshaping to realize one's best self, to be the person one could be. Why is it that a large number of young people never fulfil their potentialities. The responsibility for failure cannot be laid at the feet of the schools alone. The family, the church, and the neighbourhood must work to- gether to ensure the best possible climate for the development of our young people. The phrase nuclear family , coined by 20th century sociologists, is becoming more and more common. It brings to mind the many pressures that society is exerting on the individual family, pressures which divide its members and in some cases threaten its very existence. The family is the smallest of social institutions, but it holds first rank in importance. We must not let it dissolve, not only because of its national importance or its religious significance, but be- cause by its dissolution every human being would lose some core of himself. We, as parents, are responsible for the leader- ship, inspiration and the well-being of our chil- dren. In the coming year I would urge all of our parents to become more familiar with the opera- tions of the school. I urge you to attend school functions and, where possible, contribute your thoughts and ideas for their betterment. I urge you to become acquainted with your child's teachers and together with them establish a growing and constructive programme for your child's development. Like the prophet of old, could I remind you boys and girls, your parents, your brothers and sisters, grandparents and other family members need you, your affection and concern. Your school needs you and you will only receive from it in proportion as you give to it. Today is the last day of school and summer holidays are ahead. Holidays are meant for having fun, for developing hobbies, making and enrich- ing friendships, and browning under a summer sun. I hope you will all be able to unleash your- selves and have a small roar this summer. The only stipulation could be that you must be a creative participator in this activity rather than a spectator. Your adventure should not be handed to you through a television set or from the re- served seats of a sports stadium. I would not, of course, suggest that you all would enjoy a course in aircraft pylon racing. Your enterprise could be anything from sports, mountain climbing, or working, to bee-keeping, reading, bird watching, or rewarding crafts. Whatever you choose it should give you a personal sense of adventure. The ultimate goal, our final maturity, will perhaps be reached when we can approach all of life with this sense of adventure. It is fitting today to recognize and commend the staff. Our headmaster, Mr. Sandy Heard, deserves a true vote of thanks for the enthusiasm and drive with which he has directed the school in its first year of operation in these new surroundings. We are fortunate to have a group of extremely fine teachers. Their dedication to their students is the very foundation upon which we stand. To them may I say, never be tempted to think that you are taken for granted. I would like to congratulate those students who will win prizes and all of those who have done their best. For those whose efforts have fallen short of their ambitions I can only say, you may have lost a battle but you haven't lost the war. A courageous effort can be as valuable as an easy win. We have seven grade 12 girls graduating this year. The Board of Governors would like to wish them every success and happiness and commend them for the leadership they have displayed. I am sure Mrs. McWilliam will be especially proud of their efforts and, in my opinion, Margaret, their success reflects your extreme dedication and re- sponsibility to the teaching profession. Ladies and gentlemen, girls and boys, let us band together in the adventure of developing Strathcona-Tweedsmuir, a school which is dedi- cated to excellence. For our part, I am sure I speak for all the Board, we will spare no effort Io fulfil our role as administrators for the school. We can succeed, all of us together, in building a great t'anadian school. 7 lf f ,ff X Q , A Q Far ,,,fl57?Q 537- W. A. HEARD WHAT A YEAR ! What can l say? The usual role of the head- master at this auspicious occasion is to report on the year's activities - tell you about the academic honors won, the athletic accomplish- ments of our students, the extra-curricular acti- vities we took part in and plans for next year. It is also customary to thank the many individuals who have helped make the year the success it was, those who have donated time, money, gifts and counsel. I do not choose to do this this year, not because my gratitude on behalf of the school is lacking or not whole hearted, not be- cause we haven't won honors in many fields of endeavor, not because all our staff hasn't given more than has been required of them, but be- cause we have accomplished something else that is unique in schools. We have accomplished a family relationship. We have become members of this family by working terribly hard for some- thing we all believe in and thus it would prob- ably embarrass us all to pat each other on the back and publicly proclaim what good fellows we are. l choose on the other hand to speak to the younger members of our family and perhaps what l say will have meaning for us all. Graduating class - the 7 musketeers - where are you? Ah, in your proper place as always. You are our first you know and thus you have a special responsibility for in years to come when people say to us, What does your school do that is special? we shall. point to our graduates. We must be able to say Our graduates have been taught to use all of their potential for the l HEADMASTEHS MESSAGE benefit of their fellow man. They were given a special kind of education at Strathcona-Tweeds- muir and you will find them in all kinds of different roles but you can be sure they will be using their talents for the good of the community that they are in. They will be changing the world, making it better and making the lives of the people they come in contact with better for knowing them. All of us are constantly inundated with a picture of gloom and doom. Too much pollution. Too many births. Too many deaths. Too many people. Too much crime. Too many wars. This has had a tremendous impact on us all, but particularly on you, the young people. Some young people have met this picture by opting out, dropping out, escaping. But not you. You have accepted the challenge of your world, just as the parents and friends of this school accepted a challenge. They built a school. You are going to build a world. Seeing how this school was built is a great lesson. Nobody carried a placard protesting the old schools. Nobody even threw a bomb - there were several close calls. There were no sit-ins or strikes and not even one student's card was burned. Yet the old schools have given way to the new. This is because people legally got to- gether and used their minds and their resources and made a change. Because we live in a country that believes in free enterprise, it could happen. It could happen without the government giving the money. It didn't happen in one day, or one week or one year but with patience and per- severance, and hard work we are here today. You can do the same. There are many things in the world that neetl changing, that need im- proving. You can do these things. Vve will he watching you just as you were watched by little eyes and big ears all year. You sei a line example. Nye ltnow we will tontiirue to be proutl ot you. l--- . :STX T QT' Cl,..Qx C., 3- La-5 Rx u u ,s la. Q.-V, Q. -- x Y I. . X, :gg CXJ af' 'J , I . 'Q .L..-,. .-,, 5 , A . 1 Q-.,. I LIMITED NES L!

It was a beautiful place surrounded by lovely bushes and some very beautiful flowers. We went to Mrs. Dover's by bus and on the may there I saw some very interesting things such as dairy cows, ducks and flowers. Being autumn, the trees looked fascinating with the lovely coloured leaves gently falling to the ground. While we were on our tour around Mrs. Dover's house, we saw an amazing sun dial. Mrs. Dover showed 'us how the sun makes it work. I thought it was one of the most interest- ing things there. I enjoyed this lovely Nature Field Trip and I am sure that my classmates did too and we thank Mrs. Dover for her kindness. I hope we can go to see her and her lovely house again soon. Leslie Oughton, Grade 5G THIS YEAR I have had quite a bit of fun this year at school. We went on an eight mile hike, field trips and a camping trip. The first field trip was to Mrs. Dover's house. She showed us her house and garden and we had lunch there. The second trip was to the Glenbow Foundation. We saw a movie about the Plains Indians and we saw a lot of Indian weapons such as bows, arrows and spears. The third trip was to the Planetarium. There was a very big projector there which could make you feel like you were turning around when it turned. It could also project different colours onto the screen. Our fourth trip was to Heritage Park where we saw the old town and the ranch house. On our camping trip we went on a lot of hikes and saw some prairie dogs. The Highwood River was very high and dirty. You couldn't see six inches beneath the water. We had two water fights and every night we roasted marsh- mallows. So, when you really think about it, this has been a pretty good year. David Fathi, Grade 5B I have never had such fun in all the years I have gone to school and I feel next year's grade 5 will be lucky too. Dan McWiIIiam, Grade 5B vb:-1. . I r -3 .... ... .... .

We stopped at the High River Park to eat lunch. After lunch some of us played baseball while others played on the swings. The busdriver honked his horn and we all piled in the bus. The next part of the drive was boring so we livened it up by singing songs. At last we arrived at the colony. Mr. and Mrs. Gross showed us through their home. Their home was plain, but it sure was clean! We saw their horses, cows and the feed lot. By this time some of us had made friends with a few of the Hutterite boys. The Hutterites have about 6,000 chickens in small cages. All those chickens in cages is quite a sight. Then we looked at the rows and rows of pigs. The Hutterites have quite modern machinery such as the rock picker which takes rocks off the fields. They have five combines and four trucks lbut no carsl. T We then went to the school where the children sang a song for us. The adults had prepared a bite to eat. This consisted of coffee, water, bread and jam. The bread and jam, being homemade, tasted delicious! Then, again, we jumped in the bus, said good- bye and left for school. One thing about the Hutterites, they pay no taxes and will take up arms against no one. I am sure everyone enjoyed our trip and is hoping to visit the colony again. Russell Gregory, Grade 6B HAVING LUNCH AT THE POND After gym one day Grade 3 had lunch at the pond. We sat down quietly and saw the water move in a V shape. Then we waited quietly for a while and we saw a beaver. We watched him and then we went down to the hill to get a closer look. He came up closer, almost to the side of the shore where we were. Then he dove into the Water. We waited but he didn't come out so we went back to school.

McNiven, Sherlock, Marks, Pea- cock, Atkinson, Thurston, Locke, Louisy, Thuston, White. Arrived at Highwood Crossing at 10:00 a.m. Enthusiasm not damp- ened by falling rain. Made it to Fitzsimmonfs Creek after making our own trail and after being ma- rooned in a series of beaver dams! All well soaked. Six miles later, 4:30 p.m., camp struck at the foot of Mount Armstrong. At 5:00 p.m. enjoyed a chicken supreme entree, beef stew, a des- sert of sardines. Warm rays of sunshine brought camp to life at 8:00 a.m. Clear, crisp air and an inspiring view of the valley greeted one. After a breakfast of apple sauce, porridge and hobo-brewed coffee we were on the trail again. Had lunch at Baril Creek and hiked on to a small lake below Fording Pass where we made camp. Louisy caught a nice brook trout. Mr. Nelson's contribution of dried apricots to the porridge helped to make breakfast more palatable. Using campsite as a base we hiked to Fording Pass. A tough hike. The view from the summit was fan- tastic - glaciers and snow-capped peaks. Standing there on the Al- berta-B.C. border we wondered how the pioneers felt on reaching this spot. Amazement, enjoyment were written on the faces of all. What a magnificent spectacle be- fore us. Rain interrupted the re- turn journey for a while but no one seemed to mind. Discovered many fossils and some cairns which were of interest to all. The long hike yesterday left all tired and we did not hit the trail till 11:00 a.m. Crossed the Baril and headed south. Took a few wrong trails, thanks to poor mark- ing, but returned to Etherington for camp. Cot the tents up just in time. Down came the rain. Louisy, Atkinson, Peacock and White built a very good shelter of pine boughs. We remained dry. Rain cleared and after supper Mr. Nel- son and Mr. Bauman hiked off to check the mileage to the highway. The usual evening inspection of fires and tents over we bedded down for what proved to be the coldest night of the trip. Mr. Schmit tried to roll over in his sleeping bag only to find the bag frozen to the roof of the tent. Fortunately, as the morning wore on it became warmer and even comfortable. Camp finally came to life at 9:30 a.m. and we hit the trail around 11:30. An hour later we reached the highway and had lunch on the bridge at Etherington Creek. Five miles of hiking and the trip would be over. Already plans for the next trip were being discussed. Shortly after reaching Cataract Creek al 2:30, Mr. Ray arrived and our convoy of drivers. Our first great backpacking trip was over. The backpackers extend a big thankyou to Mr. and Mrs. Atkinson, Mrs. Kirkham, Mrs. Schmit and Mrs. Seeger, Mrs. Nelson, Mr. and Mrs. McNiven and Mr. Ray. lune 22 - fLAlA1k,f lfp , re DH Y-N7 I M- t U f A-f ws.

Veta Davis, Marj Bliek, lane Hut- chison, Stephanie Larson. Our hike began at the end of the parking lot at Lake Minnewanka. Cool, sunny weather just right for hiking. We stopped for lunch by a creek and we were all fairly hot and had sore backs! Walked about ten miles before we made camp and for dinner we had steak with mixed vege- tables followed by apple sauce. Before going to bed some of the girls washed their hair in the lake. After breakfast, around 11:00 a.m. we began walking. It was hard on the feet as we walked over a lot of loose rocks and we were soon complaining of sore feet and ankles. The weather was great. The trail was easy enough but wading across a very cold river was hardly comfortable. We found a beautiful spot by the lake and made camp. Had a delicious chili for dinner. Ankles were very sore this morn- ing. Mr. and Mrs. Domoney went on an 11 mile return hike to the park boundary. The rest of us' stayed at the campsite. However, june 21 june 22 at 2:30 we- began walking around the lake and made 4 miles when down came the rain so we camp- ed beside a creek. Had a horrible dinner - chicken stew. Don't bother buying it if you go back- packing. Rain, rain, rain and just as we were packing up. The trail was uphill most of the time and very muddy. We wore our raincoats most of the day. We were forced to spend an hour sheltering under a tree and we were soaked, right down to our boots. Crossed a creek 13 times. Have 34 more crossings to go! We built a huge fire and spent about 4-5 hours around it literally drying out. Wet tent, wet sleeping bag. The hardest day of all - 36 creeks with a temperature of between 350 and 370. Some we waded through barefoot, others we cross- ed on logs and stones and others we sloshed through, boots and all. We trekked through solid branch- es, snow, mud, and that water. ln 6 hours we walked SV2 miles and didn't stop for lunch. The trip was over and what a trip. Thank heaven the last mile meant hiking down a road. JACK KRUSCHE RECALLS 1971 CANCJE TRIP V753 TS? 'AN X N Q , 'l Ji-ggi, Txfizrv-Q-fS. ,'4L31l?x'?ff --B if A f , 3 ?fl5,g 5- -ff? 4.4 7? 7.

BRU NEI DEBATING This war at Strathcona-Tweedsmuir marked tht- beginning of a great new era for the school. Not nnlx did our debaters compete with con- siderable success but our school hosted the prnxincial debating championship in March. In November a group of interested debaters attended a Workshop at Bowness High School in Calgarxp Here we were introduced to the fundamentals of public speaking and the prep- aration of impromptu speeches. We spent months practising our newly acquired skills and researching the topic for our next debating competition, the provincial eliminations at Lord Beaverbrook High School, Calgary. The topic was That there should be restrictions on further U.S. investment in Can- acla's natural resources. Our teams consisted of lanice Heard and john Knebles, Dick Sherlock and Alex Mchliven, Pamela Heard and Calvin McClary, and john Brown and Harvey Locke. Our teams won first, second and third placings in the novice eliminations. lohn Knebles was named top novice speaker of the competition. Our three successful teams had won their way to the provincial championships. March 18, the day of the provincial champion- ships, came around all too quickly. Gathered at Strathcona-Tweedsmuir were 96 contestants representing 28 schools from across the province of Alberta. As well as the large number of con- testants there were more than 100 judges in attendance and many observers. What a great day for STS! All our teams performed Nell and one made it to the quarter finals. But those teams from McNally were murder! Despite the fact that our teams did not make it to the grand final, john Knebles emerged as the second top novice speaker in the championship and sub- sequently represented Alberta as an observer at the National Debating Seminar at Fort Saskatch- ewan in May. Winners of the Strathcona-Tweeds- muir Debating Trophy and the Open Champion- ship were Tory Kirby and Don Whyte of Central Memorial High School. Tory, a former student and head prefect of Strathcona, was a founding student of our school's debating club. On behalf of all the members of the Strath- cona-Tweedsmuir Debating Club I would like to express our sincere thanks to Mr. T. B. Hewitt, Chairman of the Board of Governors during 1971, for his encouragement, interest, and assistance. I would also like to thank all members of the faculty who very generously gave us time to debate and then contributed their own time to judging at the championships. We pay tribute to Mr. Ditchburn, our coach, for his efforts on our behalfg for all the advice, assistance and en- thusiasm he communicated to us. We congratu- late him on the magnificently organized pro- vincial championships, the smoothest operation in Alberta debating to date. Hail coach and we look forward to an even more successful 1972-73! IOHN KNEBLES -v. -NRM-M W img Qgx V' 5' 'Sf Si 6 .aa 0,3 'x -galil ALVIN MCCLARY S X s ' . n X1 '- W n X xg 4.51. .

Grades 1 81 2 Girls 49 THE FLOWER SHOP One day when I was walking home from school I looked in .1 window and saw lovely flowers. 'Iihen I had a wonderful idea. Why not start .1 iloxxer shop? Other people have big ones so xxhxi couldnt I have .1 small flower shop in the greenhouse? I ran home as quickly as I could. As soon as I arrived home I changed my clothes and ran out to pick flowers. I picked roses, daffodils and many other When I had all the flowers arranged, I took a piece of cardboard and made a sign. It said, Come In And Buy Fresh Flowers , I put the sign outside the gate and after a while people started coming in to buy my flowers. The next day I put out the sign again. People saw the sign and came in but they went away. I was disappointed and wondered why. I looked at the flowers and saw the reason. The flowers were withered and nobody likes withered flowers. I flowers from our garden. I went inside and put SUSAN HAY them in water and then I took them to the Grade 5 greenhouse. wfiiifii thx' ' H tieifigba X T gin? lx a ' 5, X f - In 19 'N?s I ,Bib f ZX fr Q1 f . K My if I fl.

BRIAN 51 LESTER, Grade 7 O04 THE VOCABULARY OF SIXTH GRADE BOYS There are many things we have to learn, but I think we can pretty generally agree that learn- ing to talk is one of the most important. All of us begin by babbling, but fortunately, as we grow older, our vocabulary goes through some changes. For example, we spend quite a few years learning that it's right, to say I go, but not I goed! I have gone and I have seen, but not I have went! By the time we get to sixth grade, we have these things fairly well sorted out, but there's no Iet-up. Another problem arises, It has to do with the generation gap. After we have worked so hard to learn about nouns, verbs, adjectives and adverbs and all this junk, our parents start criticizing us for not having a large enough vocabulary. They actually think we don't know enough words! Now this is just not true at all. We know a great many words, but we can only use about half of them in front of our parents. This is a real disadvantage and under these circumstances its no wonder that they misjudge the extent of our vocabularies, especially the verb forms. There are a lot of verbs plus noun phrases which we use among ourselves every day that parents just may not have any idea about. That is because we use them selectively - which means when parents are not around! It's called group language and it has a large and colourful vocabulary. This language is very common among sixth grade boys. It should also be noted that many of our words tend to be short. I'm not quite sure why this is. It's just the way they come and I under- stand that some of them have been coming that way for several hundred years now. Perhaps it's in order to get ideas stated as quickly as pos- sible. Anyway, we do talk a lot, we don't just giggle and snort as some people seem to think. So with that much speech time and all short words there are many many words in action. Action is the proper term too as many of the words we use are action words. Space, unfortunately, does not permit me to give specific examples! I hope, dear reader, that I have given you some appreciation of the language achievement of grade six boys and if I contributed anything toward greater understanding and admiration of this group, my efforts will not have been in vain.

BARRY GARDNER, Grade 8 WAR The waves did splash and the winds did blow As the world began to fight a foe. The sky did darken and I did see The brave men going to fight at sea. Afraid I was as they went away The thought they wouldn't be back next day, But sure enough, again they came, Sailing down the narrow main. The sky when blue with a pale light, Beams over a ship in a still dark night, Over the mountains and over the sea Brings back memories of that ship to me. IUNE OLLERENSHAW, Grade 9 54 STRATHCONA-TWEEDSMUIR TEACHER LEAVES SCHCDOL By Glen Street OKOTOKS: Mrs. Helen McLean, the BBUD Lan- guage teacher and School art teacher, announced today that she is leaving Strathcona-Tweeclsmuir School and retiring from teaching. The twenty-nine year old teacher announced the tragic news today during a school assembly. Later, during an interview, when she was asked why she was leaving, she said, My husband is a heart specialist and after examining me he was positive that if I taught another year I was bound to have a heart attack. When asked what the cause of the heart attack would be she replied, Those crazy BB Gnes. They would give anyone a heart attack. I have exhausted myself chasing Bob Brennan around the class- room to beat him. But you know, he lost 300 pounds and I became a star runner in the process. A lot of people have asked me if I am quitting teaching to become a champion runner. I would like to clarify this. No! This is wrong. I am quitting so that I can become a housewife and because I am moving to Peterborough, Ontario. When asked why she was moving to Peter- borough, Ontario, Mrs. McLean answered, Well, one of my students gave a speech on the Peter- borough lift locks and it was so interesting I had to go down and see them for myself. I talked to my husband about it and used the speech to persuade him. The persuasion worked and so we are moving to Peterborough. My husband is taking the car and I am running. Among the highlights of the language classes, according to Mrs. McLean, were Boley's jokes. The simple application of two rolls of masking tape took care of those. She was surprised, how- ever, by Arnold who thought each language class was one big cocktail party as he smoked his pen and talked. I fixed his problem, said Mrs. McLean, by buying 523.35 worth of pencils and making him smoke them all at once. And do you know he crammed all those pencils into his mouth!'f At the conclusion of the interview, Mrs. McLean was asked if she was proud of any of her students. She said, Yes, I'm Pryde of proud . . . I mean I'm proud of Prydef' Strathcona-Tweedsmuir is faced with a prob- lem. Where can we find a language teacher who is a good, last, long-distance runner to chase Brennan next year in Grade 9? YOU VE NEVER SEEN A CAR? One day as I was getting out of my car a man came up. Oh, he exclaimed, what on earth is that contraption? ll ll It's a car, I told him. A four cylinder four hundred and fifty cubic inch, two hundred horsepower car with power steering, power brakes and an automatic stickshift. It's a 1972 Thunderbird with hook- er headers. Oh, he said, but how does it work? Well, I replied calmly, the fuel is pushed into the com- pression chamber where the piston is stationary, then the fuel is blown up by a spark which pushes the piston out thereby moving the crank- shaft which moves the wheels. Hmm, he said. What do you use for fuel? Gasoline , I said, which is a product of crude oil which is extracted from the ground. Very interesting, said he as he climbed back into his fly- ing saucer to report his find- ings.
