Charmaine Connop C1979-l98OJ Charmaine left Okotoks for S.T.S. this year and has demanded respect ever since for conning Mr. Tottenham all year. If only he knew! Christened early in the year as Charmin' Charmen, she has quietly infiltrated the class with a serene smile and her unshakeable personality. Jay Cross C1972-19805 Jay has been here since the dark ages of grade five and has embarked on a political career through the Student's Council which can only end at 24 Sussex Drive. His incredible antics on cross-country skis and on the volleyball court, combined with his dis- gustingly high marks leave us in awe. Jay will be studying science at McGill University next year. Whitney deVries C1978-19805 We often wonder if that vacuous expression on Whitney's face comes from a lack of blood to his head which stands 6'2H high above the ground. He is also a great downhill skier having learnt in the wilds of Nelson, B.C.. He participates in almost all school teams--surprisingly with some success. 9

Gail Baragar C1978-19805 Gail's wide-eyed innocence must surely be a cover for some dreadful secret, but as yet we have not been able to detect a flaw in her character. Also well known for her absences, Gail has had a variety of exotic medical problems--most of which are unprintable. Gail also helped in the organi- zation of the Grad. Laurie Boyd Q -l98OD Laurie seems to have been here since time immemorialg Longview Senior High was the only other choice after all. Laurie's pugnacious humor is a joy to us all in grade 12. He is an excellent down- hill skier and a racer on the Lake Louise and Alberta teams. His exploits on the Rugby Tour are well known if only for his show of respect for the Welsh pubs. sf' 7 Cole Bygrove C1973-l98OD Colby is an amazing phenomenon in many waysg his .5 'ra vast quantity of hair combined with an aggressive, sporting attitude and supposed success with women hold most of us spellbound. Cole's big disappointment in life was not being born black, for various reasons-most of them unmentionable. He has recently taken up skydiving to keep himself busy between waterskiing events.

Brian Hoffmann C1977-19801 Brian has been trying to lose his Hbaby fatn Simon Goldstein C1969-19805 One of the officially recognized brains of the class, Simon is well known for his habit of never studying for tests and still acheiving huge percentages. Also one of our photographic nuts content when catching unsuspecting students in candid shots. His quick good humour keeps us awake during Math 31. Simon is going to England next year to complete his A levels. ever since he came here in grade 10. A masochist of high degree, he enjoys pumping iron and playing Rugby. Brian's exploits with the local police are legendary and his capability of inhaling beer demands respect. I, 313 Kevin Laurence C1975-19801 Probably one of the most self-confident and arrogant people in the world, Kevin looks down from his 6'lH height at anyone who doesn't play volleyball. A critic of everyone but himself, at least when his perpetual coma is disturbed, Kevin's dry remarks keep us laughing most of the time. He will be going to Queen's next year. I0
