W «4 ■ •U.-LArv I The Experiment... SPECIAL MESSAGES The special message for this year’s issue of The Terminal was written by Mr. C. C. Nickle, ex-M.P. and publisher of The Daily Oil Bulletin , a well-known Calgarian who seems to have reached several of the moons he was aiming at. This coming fall the first of a series of Carl and Kola Nickle Foundation Bursaries, valued at Two Hundred Dollars, will be awarded to a Viscount Ben¬ nett Grade Eleven student who has excelled in aca¬ demic and citizenship achievement. This generous award, which is being made in Bowness and all city of Calgary senior high schools, is one for which students and teachers alike are exceedingly grate¬ ful. REACH FOR THE MOON! Away back in the ' 30 5, when your parents and I were youngsters in high school, we students frequently talked over our plans for the future. Whether one’s dream was to fly an aircraft at the then remote speed of 200 miles per hour, split the atom, or help build new kinds of industry in our province that then abounded only in wheat fields and cattle ranches, there were always some around who tried to bring us back to harsh realities with the words You ' re reaching for the moon. In the years since, many students of the 30 ' s have reached for ■ and caught their moons. In fact, many are busily engaged in reaching for the real moon - the next step in the conquest of outer space, one of the great dramas of our time. Looking back, we see that a single generation has brought more changes in mankind and his world than any other generation in history. But - more important - progress in such fields as mathematics, chemistry, physics and nuclear science has opened doors to new challenges, new opportunities, new progress far greater than that of the past generation. The part you play In that future depends in large measure on how well you are equipped in education and in ambition to reach for the particular ’moon ' of your desires. The dedication of the Viscount Bennett Yearbook to the scientists of the future and the ' International Geophysical Year - a program designed to vastly increase man ' s knowledge of the planet he lives in - is a sign that you have your eyes on the future, and are preparing your minds for it. May your individual ' I.G.Y. or ' moon-reaching ' be as successful for you and humanity as is the project to which your Yearbook is dedicated. C. 0. Nickle THIS YEAR Startling world events have made 1958 a most memorable year The impact of recent space projections alone has left a most sobering influence upon the thinking of people everywhere. A general cohcem for national safety has placed a new emphasis upon the advancement of science. Sharing this new interest both parents and students alike are re-examining the role of the Your staff has been impressed this year with the enthusiastic response by most students to this scholastic challenge. Through the co-operative efforts of students and teachers sound progress has been made in academic attainment. While the major emphasis has been placed upon school work it is heartening to experience the enthusiasm of student body and teachers in making our school a fine cultural centre. This, your Yearbook, a monument itself to student activities records the fine achievement of a host of students in scholastics, music, art, drama, sports, service and literary effort.

Godvi v EDITORIAL AND MESSAGE THIS YEAR AND YEARS TO CONS l This was the year of Sputniks, the year of the Intercontinental Ballistics Missile, the year when science became so important that people began spelling it with a capital letter. It was also the International Geophysical Year. To commemorate these discoveries, the staff of The Terminal decided to develop the 1957-58 yearbook around a scientific theme. Thus, that likeable little character known as IGY (International Geophysical Year, of course) was created by Ron Huck for the pages of this book. Now, moreso than in any other period of time, students are pressed with the decision of whether to enter the field of science or go into some other form of study or business. For those blessed with scientific skill, the field of science offers endless opportunities. But, while the world is in need of scientists, it is also in need of business men, artists and skilled artisans — plumbers, grocers, teachers, mechanics, stenographers, musicians and paperhangers. This is an age of specialization, and it would be impossible for society to exist without many types of workers - workers who are willing to work with one another to build a better society for all men to live in. There is a place for every person in this world; and, while we cannot all be scientists, we can each do our bit to help produce a better world for all mankind. Now, while we are still young enough to make such a decision we must decide what our service to the world will be; and, having made that decision, we must study and prepare ourselves for the roles we have chosen to play. THE LAST WORD The Terminal staff of 1957-58 was indeed a fine one. Jim Kelly proved himself to be the ever-reliable, never- forgetting editor every adviser hopes to have; the section editors kept phoning the few delinquent reporters until they finally brought in all of their copy. Miss Stadelbauer, Ron Huck and the members of the Art Group took meticulous care with the illustrative work; Hr. Ramsey spent many long hours snapping photographs and developing them. Nr. Ferguson and his Booster Club members advertised our publication so veil that we had an almost one hundred per cent subscriptions list; Nr. Sharlow and his collectors brought in the money we had to have for such an ambitious undertaking. Large numbers of teachers helped from time to time during the year. Some assisted with proofreading, others helped with the preparation of works for the Literary Contest and of the biographies. Mrs. Shipley who typed the most of the book, and Mrs. Morris and Miss Birmingham who helped with other steno¬ graphic services were stalwarts of strength behind me; Mr. Wilcox and Nr. Bryan were ready with advice and as sistance whenever I requested it. It seems to me that this publication is an excellent illustration of what can happen when staff and students work together in harmony for a unified coal. May Viscount Bennett Junior - Senior High School experience many more years of this harmony of purpose. Finally, to all who aided me so graciously and willingly, my sincere thanks for your co-operation and counsel. You made my task of Production Adviser a pleasant one. THE TEACHING STAFF H. W.

Teams under the direction of i Mrs. Kushnir, aided by Miss Godwin ' s j P.E. 20 class, practised and played | volleyball every available noon hour. In the playoffs, 7-13, 8-11 and 9-2 managed to defeat their close opponents, capturing the championship j pennants. o ( Cj) 0 These three teams earned the distinction of representing our school in the Playday held annually. Al¬ though they failed to win, the teams put up stiff competition for their opponents from the other schools. cjy JUNIOR HIGH GIRLS ' ALL-STAR V0LLEY_ BALL TEAM _ Under the capable leadership of Mrs. Kushnir, both the Junior and Senior Volleyball teams got off to a fine start in the fall. In a double Round-Robin Tourna¬ ment held at Vis¬ count, the Juniors managed to be vic¬ torious in seven out of eight games. -——— The top-notch seniors, on the other hand, managed to capture all of their games. Thus, both teams were represented in the semi-finals at Western on December 5. At this time, the Juniors were defeated by Branton and the Seniors by Queen Elizabeth. ttttt JUNIOR HIGH GIRLS ' HOUSELEAGUE BASKETBALL _ Following the volleyball came the equally-exciting sport of basketball. This year, in house league bas¬ ketball, 9-2, „—8-12 and 7-16 emerged victor- r ious over the c other classes in r their grades. The games, consist¬ ing of two five- • • ■ ■ minute periods, were played during the noon hour in the gym. The Eight ' s and Nine ' s champions attended the Playdays. The Eights, playing at King Edward, won one game and lost three, while the Nines, play¬ ing the following day, were more successful, winning two and losing two. 7-16 had a rousing playoff game against Jz 11, ......_... Page 66 JUNIOR HIGH GIRLS ' INTERSCHOOL BASKETBALL Divided according to the McCloy Rating, Viscount ' s two girls ' teams, junior and senior, had thirteen members | on.each team. : The girls played four league games | in the form of doubleheaders. The first was played on March 6 at Rideau Park, with the opposition winning both games. On March 10, at Melville Scott, the j Seniors were defeated, but the Juniors won their game. The third doubleheader at King Edward again saw the Seniors defeated and the Juniors victorious. | In the final games, played at Viscount on March lU, both teams were downed by Colonel Walker by one point. j INTERSCHOOL BADMINTON TOURNAMENT Although receiving very late notice of the Badminton Tournament which was held at Crescent Heights High School, Viscount Bennett was well represented in the event. Just before the tournament, short Round-Robin Tourna¬ ments were run-off ; and, as a resul t, the top eight teams were picked includ¬ ing a substitute team. However, fail¬ ing to match Rideau ' s top-notch play,‘ ' Viscount players were rather, quickly defeated., although our representatives did fairly well in the : Doubles Tournament. In the Singles Tournament, played after the first part of the play was finished, our players showed even better. Next year. ' Special thanks go to Mr. Bryan for his assistance with the coaching as well as the members of the Physical Education Department. THE TERMINAL ANNUAL GYMPEDE As in previous years, students from all five grade levels at Vis¬ count took part in-the Annual Gympede. This year ' s showwas held on Wednesday, March 19, and featured demonstrations in-gymnastics, tumb¬ ling, basketball, volleyball, games, dance, badminton and wrestling. Under the direction of the Physical Education Department, the Gympede was presented for a Home and School Association meeting to demonstrate the variety of activities which make up the Physical Education pro¬ gram. A special feature of the even¬ ing was the display put on by the majorettes and cheer leaders accom¬ panied by the school band. JUNIOR HIGH BOYS ' BORDENBALL LEAGUE During the month of September Grade Seven and Eight boys worked off a lot of their energy during the noon hours playing bordenball. After a great 0 deal of vigorous play among many • a y participants, 7-1-5 and 8-12 ended up li the season as the Z_j l league winners. JUNIOR HIGH WRESTLING Under the able direction of Stan Black a group of boys met regularly for instruction in wrestling. At the work¬ outs Stan concentrated on body-building exercises. Several Viscount boys competed in the city meets and did very well. THE TERMINAL Page 67 JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL BOYS VOLLEYBALL Like the girls, the Junior High j boys had an active volleyball house league during the fall months. The ! winners of this league were 8-lU and j 9-h. Following the basketball season the girls joined the boys for a short Mixed League for Grade Eight and Nine only. The winners of this league were 9-h and 3 9 • ; JUNIOR HIGH BOYS ' BASKETBALL LEAGUE — For a couple of months, Bennett ' s gym floor whs shaken gently by the dainty steps and soft whispers of j Grade Eight and Nine boys playing the game of Annie, Annie, Over the Back- board. In other words, the fellows yelled and thundered-enough down the oourt to rock the foundation — while playing basketball. Well, anyway, it was funl The teams played a Round-Robin Tournament with 9-h and 8-12 out on top of their respective league hoops. The two leagues were enjoyed by all players. JUNIOR HIGH BOYS ' ALL-STAR LEAGUE Early in February the Senior Boys ' All-Star Basketball set out to win all of their games against such schools as Colonel Walker, Bal¬ moral and Queen Elizabeth. Under the coaching of Mr. Semkuley, they played one or two games a week. Although they were not completely victorious, they did win the majority of their games. The Senior All-Stars, playing in a similar league, also aimed to win as many games, as they could. They man¬ aged to win the majority of them, but did not, even under the skilled coaching of Mr. Hodgert, win enough to cop the title. JUNIOR HIGH SOFTBALL HCUSELEAGUE After the Track Meet Grade Seven, j Eight and Nine students were organized into house leagues for daily games. No interschool participation was organized for this sport. j JUNIOR HIGH TABLOID TRACK MEET All students took part in the various track and field events, the totals were taken, and percentages calculated. The winners were: Girls Boys Aggregate 7-16 7-15 7-16 8-7 8-12 8-12 9-6 9-1 9-h JUNIOR HIGH INTERSCHOOL TRACK MEET During the latter part of May track and field elimina¬ tions were held to determine who would represent Viscount at the Interschool Track and Field Meet at Mewata Stadium. Viscount competed, on Wednesday, May 28, against teams from Melville Scott, King Edward, Rideau and Colonel Walker.

JUNIOR FOOTBALL PI THE SENIOR HIGH j noon. Under the direction of Mr. Semkuley, the Junior Football team had a fairly successful season. Although they only won one game (a 2-1 victory ver Western), the team j always gave their opponents stiff com-, petition. Over the season, four players stood out: Jim Clark, Jack Truran, j Deane Ross and Bill Winship. Mr. Jones and Dave James assisted Mr. I Semkuley with the coaching and managing of the team. IF (and there always seems to be an if ) the team had not been hampered by an almost epedemic-like flood of injuries. Viscount might have won even more games. The soccer league was not too successful because of poor weather and unsatisfactory playing conditions. The touch football league fol¬ lowed much the same rules as tackle rugby but, instead- of- the play actually tackling his opponent, he tagged him with both hands. All in all, those who participated in these two leagues had a gread deal of fun. SENIOR HIGH BOYS ' HOUSELEAGUE BASKET¬ BALL_ : A very successful season of houseleague basketball concluded at the end of March with a strong 10-U3 team emerging victorious. The race for the champion¬ ship was a very.tight one 5 .and, until the last game was finished, it was not known which room would cop top honors. Each contest lasted from 12:20 until 12:50 with four quarters, each lasting approximately eight minutes. i : SENIOR HIGH SOCCER AND TOUCH FOOTBALL The senior high soccer and touch football leagues were not composed of room ■TTi teams, but of persons interested in playing these sports. League play lasted from 12:20 until 12:50 Page 69 TH E TERMINAL ....... SENIOR HIGH BOYS ALL-STAR BASKETBALL This has been a year of firsts sportwise, and Bennettites can be proud of the fine start made by the Senior High Boys ' Junior Basketball squad. Under the direction of Mr. D. Jones it competed against clubs from the other five senior highs, earning a fourth-place berth. The team members were: Jon Constable, Dennis Gilbert, Darrell Goodfellow, Darrill Lade 11, Gary Lee, Bill McCabe, Wendell Nicholson, John McKay, Ian Potter, Dean Ross and Gerry Smith. In the 1958-59 season Bennett hopes to be able to field both senior and junior teams for inter-school competition. SENIOR HIGH INTERSCHOOL BASKETBALL J unior — The Junior Girls ' Inter- school team showed an excellent dis¬ play of basketball skill this year. Coached by Miss Thomas and Mr. Semkuley, the group reached the semi¬ finals after many hard-fought battles. The league operated from November 25 until February 13 -- when the girls played against Queen Elizabeth in the semi-finals to end up with a heartbreaking loss. Intermediate — This team, coached by Mr. Jones, fought hard throughout the • season to make an excellent impression on the Viscount fans, proving to. other older and larger schools that Viscount offers real tough competition. The girls fought through to the semi-finals which they unfortunately lost to Queen Elizabeth by a 3U-33 count. The top scorers for this group were Enid Donovan,.Diana White and Carol Powers. GIRLS ' HCUSELEAGU5 BASKETBALL Cheers, iirhistles and screams came from the gymnasium most noons during November and December when the Grade Ten and Eleven girls battled with one another for the coveted House league Basketball Trophy. The Grade Elevens, being more experienced, seemed as if they had the Championship in the bag. However, late in December., the, finals took place between 10-27 and ll-29j and it was soon demonstrated by 10-27 that they could get up to the top when they really wanted to. Second and third places were won by 11-29 and 11-28. VOLLEYBALL PLAYDAY FOR VISCC.DIT GIRLS Two Viscount girls ' teams par¬ ticipated in the Volleyball Playday held at Western. Although they failed to win, they thoroughly enjoy¬ ed themselves. MIXED VOLLEYBALL HOUSE LEAG UE Grade Tens and Elevens got to¬ gether for a spirited mixed volley¬ ball league in the spring of 1958. All of the Grade Ten rooms were out to show the Grade S ' evens a thing or two — and they did, too, but Class 11-29 managed to emerge the victors‘of the tight league. These victors, on the other hand, were soundly trounced by the staff in a noon-hour Booster Club rally. Perhaps age is what counts for this game ' . jPage?0 j SENIOR HIGH GIRLS 1 TUMBLING CLUB The members of the Senior High Girls Tumbling Club kept active throughout the year at noon-hour meet¬ ings in the auxiliary gym. Under the supervision of Miss Thomas and the instruction of Dale Connery, approximately twenty girls went through their routines daily, j They not only went through their con- ! tortions for the exercise -- but also j because they thoroughly enjoyed the j activity. j BOYS ' TUMBELING AMD WRESTLING CLUB j Athletes from both the senior and junior high school sections of Viscount took part in the activities of this club. Although the membership in this club was small, the cl ub members worked j out regularly in the noon hour. In the Provincial Wrestling Tournament Stan Black and Allen Smith won their weight category classes. Stan Black j who acted as leader of this group was j asked to attend the Canadian Wrestling | Championship Finals. Truly a fine j honor for Stan., ( SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL BADMINTON In the Interschool Badminton Meet j held at Crescent, Viscount placed third, ! just behind Western and Central. ! Viscount ' s team was chosen in an elimina¬ tion match the day before the tournament. The following made up the team: Bob Froelich and Susan Alexander, Greg | Horton and Sharon Smith, Wilf Wenzel ; and Joan Talbot, and Lome Scott and Maureen McKinlay. .T HE TERMINAL INTERSCHOOL SWIM MEET In June of 1957 the Viscount swim team of some dozen or so participants stroked their way to third place in the Interschool Swim Meet. Although we went to press before the 1958 Meet was held, it was reported that Viscount expected to do well again this year. SENIOR HIGH INTSRSCHOOL TRACK TEAM During March and April, a few track enthusiasts came out to condi¬ tioning classes. However, as May passes day by calendar day, more and more students appeared in track attire, and enthusiasm and spirit picked up. Finally, the track teams made up of the following were chosen: GIRLS Juniors : Ellen Armstrong, Susan Alexander, Dixie Birney, Janice Cameron, Pat Clark, Lydia James, Dorothy Lamb, Donna MacFarlane, Loree Makowichuck, Sandra McKinnon, Kay Nagai, Kathy Osborne and Joan Talbot. Seniors : Donna Bamford, Ruth Coe, Jean Hodges, Marge Maliphant, Carol Powers, Judy Rhamey, Georgine Ross, Linda Sheppard and Diana White.

Starring Jim MacDonald and Joanne Dunaway, it presented the Christmas story in tableau-like scenes with simple, yet effective costumes and scenes. Here Comes Charlie, the second production of the year, was a four-act comedy starring Helen Mercer, John McKay, Jan McGilvray, Gail Risdahl and Lome Scott. It was staged to capacity audiences on the evenings of May ll;, 15 and 16 . The theme of the play emphasized the difficulties Charlie (Helen Mercer), a hillbilly girl, encountered when she went to live with her foster father (John McKay). Neither John’s fiance (Jan McGilvray) nor his aunt (Gail Risdahl) approved of the ir-- ' repressible Charlie, but two years of boarding school did much to transform Charlie -- so much so, that John realized he was in love with her, as his friend (Lome Scott) helped him to the conclusion. A great deal of the credit for the success of these two productions is due to those who worked behind the scenes designing sets, gathering costumes, caring for the lighting arrangements, putting on make-up, and arranging for off-stage sound. Particular mention should be made of the stage managers and their careful work. Finally, a special note of appre¬ ciation to Mr. Cooke for his help and coaching through those long, after¬ school hours which are so necessary for the successful production of any school play. FIFTY GRADE EIGHT, NINE AMD TEN STUDENTS MADE .UP THE VISCOUNT BAND It is not often one hears near¬ perfect intonation from fifty school pupils turned loose with wind and brass instruments. . . the tonal effect was quite astonishing. These words of praise were written by an Albertan staff writer after he heard the Viscount Bennett band play in a Calgary School Board music demonstra¬ tion this year. Further words of praise were given at the Annual Music Festival held in th e Jubilee Auditorium the last week in April at which time the Viscount band won first place in its class with grades of 8U and 86. In addition to playing in festivals, the school band has been featured at Home and School meetings and the May Track Meets. In the fall they demonstra¬ ted their proficiency to the Alberta School Trustees Convention delegates. Early in November the Band Parents Group was formed. These faithful people have been serving meals in the school cafeteria each noon, making money to support the band. They hope to have made enough by the end of June to have provided the senior high band with tailored uniforms. There are fifty members in the band, six of whom are girls. Grades Eight, Nine and Ten are represented in the group. ■ Although the band members receive school credit for their work, many extra rehearsals are required to produce their finished performances. Much credit goes to Mr. Dow for his patience and skill in guiding and teaching this group of fifty youthful musicians. THE TERMINAL . Pa ge.82. WRITING FOR .FUN : The selections of writing published on these next pages are the winning entries of the Literary Contest , the deadline of which was March 3. We have tried to publish.a fairly equal amount of work from each class but, being limited as to space, we have not been able to publish all those we would like to have published. However, after some thought, we have decided to give you the following selections. Our thanks go out to Viscount students for producing such interesting works, and to the language teachers for extracting much of this work from the students. We hope that you enjoy our selection. Happy reading. Jane Hutchins, Section Editor LITE RARY .CO N T E ST RULES ' The school was divided into three sections for The Terminal Literary Contest.

She was so nice everyone loved her. The children in her little play school loved her very much, and she loved the children. She played games with them and told them stories, and she never got cross. One day she called all the little children together. You are good children, she said, every single one of you. And because you are so good, a nice surprise is coming for you this week. The children begged to know what it was, but Miss Grant would not tell them. As the children went back to their play, they couldn ' t help wondering what the surprise was. They talked often, very often to each other about it. I wonder what it is? said Billy. I wonder, too, replied Donald. Jim and Linda and all the rest wondered too. Early the next day -- a Tuesday -- as the children were playing out-of-doors, a red truck stopped in front of Hiss Grant ' s play school. Maybe, that ' s the surprise coming, cried Billy. Oh, nol said Donald. That ' s only the milkman. On Wednesday morning a shing blue auto drove up in front of the play school. Maybe that ' s the surprise coming, cried Linda. Oh, nol said Bobby. That ' s Jim White bringing the groceries. The next day, after finishing their morning snack of milk and crackers, Hiss | Grant said: I ' d like you to stay right here for a few minutes. I ' ll call you then, and you ' ll learn what your surprise is at last. The children could hardly wait. They talked and giggled. They bounced up and down on their chairs. Then, at last, Hiss Grant called, Come, childrenl How they ran and pushed to get outsidel And this is what they saw -- a little brown puppy, the cutest little puppy they had ever seen. When the children thanked Miss Grant for the wonderful surprise, the puppy barked a very loud Bow-wowl as if to say, Thank you very much for my new home. And he lived at the play school ever after. Helen Zelmer, 7-16 ORT STORY P ag e85 THE TERMINAL FIRST PRIZE ESSAY THE SUPERDUPERQUADRUPLE SANDWICH Do you get hungry in the middle of the night, and the next day haven ' t your homework because of weakness due to hunger? Of course you do, and here is the perfect solution to your problem: a superduperquadruple sandwich! The ingredients require a loaded refrigerator, a perfectly quiet house about two o ' clock in the I morning, and two slabs of bread. We begin by spreading the butter on the bread, being careful not to make it j more than two inches deep, as it would become difficult to eat. Vie then proceed to put in the filling; anything you can find in the refrigerator will do. This part may include such things as leftover hamburger, tomatoes, cheese, peanut butter, jam, egg, salad dressing, chicken, roast, lettuce, cucumber, or anything else that happens to be available. After this is artistically assembled, not more than one foot high, the last slab of bread is added. To complete the process of making this | delicious treat, we cut off all extra food that might be sticking out, — after all, we don ' t want to seem like pigs, do we? Well, at last we ' re finished. Isn ' t it just too delicious for words? Naturally it is, I didn ' t waste all this time for nothing! This is where I leave you, you lucky, lucky, middle-of-the-night food hunters, and remember you can always buy aspirins at your nearest drug store, and in case of emergency contact your doctor. Sharon Haskovitch, 8-8 | SECOND PRIZE A VISIT TO MY ALMA MATER IN 2005 As. I peer through my glass roof at the small mackerel-bone shaped clouds in the Caribbean sky above me, I think back, back into the pages of my life. Back from | this year of 2005 to . . . ah, yes, it was 1958. Oh, how I long to see my old school friends once more before I die. Faintly I recall those days; that small picture of my happy school days will always remain in my mind. I remember one rpepial character who was the life of the classroom, who seemed to get at least one deep down chuckle from every teacher, be he stern or lax. Oh, how could I have forgotten my school. Are the classrooms and corridors the same? Is the spirit for the school still strong? I must see for myself. Yes, I will go in my helicopter. As I look down upon the city, it occurs to me that I am seeing a different world from that which I knew when I was young. A world which has grown slowly but surely through the years, without notice, into a modern and fascinating place. Ah! here is the place — I recognize it by the shape of the building. What is this I see? In place of the old bicycle corral, an airport for the students ' helicopters. A modern ten-story building where the Dairy Bar used to be. I get out and start to wander towards the school. I hear a rhythmic chanting sound. What is it they are saying? Yes, now I hear it: Come on, Bennett! Skin ' em alive. Diane McTavish, 8-8 Page 86 THE TERMINAL POETRY FIRST PRIZE THE SYMBOL 1 OF THE TREE , The tree is ageles?. f It stands,. caring, not for outsiders and heeding not the clamorous play of little children, climbing through its tangled foliage. Even as the carefree boys grow, to manhood the tree is never lonely. It protects the generations, f It is trusted,it is proud. V A, Think, is this why the tree never withers, why it stands alone so forbidding -- yet, so fascinating. You see, the tree is not cold, it is the protector. The symbol by which wars are won is in that tree, and -- It is ageless. Lyn Meyer, 8 -II 4 .

On his way to the car, Ted passed Mrs. Hutchins shovelling the walks. Good-day, Mrs. Hutchins, he called. Mrs. Hutchins grunted. Just as Ted was about to start the car, he impulsively rolled down the window, and called - If it would make your mind any easier, Mrs. Hutchins, I assure you I haven ' t touched your cat. Mrs. Hutchins gave no visible sign that she had heard. She continued shovelling. Ted started the car. Mrs. Hutchins started to lift an especially large load of snow. Suddenly, an Page 88 THE TERMINAL ear-splitting screech caused her to whirl around, dumping snow all over the freshly- i cleared path. She stood there, rooted to the spot by the terrible screeches and screams, wild hangings and frantic scratchings which emitted from the front of the I car. Speechless, she watched Ted get out of the car and open its hood. Out streaked a large cat. Toby! cried Mrs. Hutchins as the cat dashed towards her. Owwl Stop that, you wretch! Ted chuckled. There was Toby, sitting upon his mistresses ' head, snarling defiance at the ' entire world. Gretchen Meade, 10-U3 SECOND PRIZE DANGEROUS NIGHT My name is Dick Shelton. At the time when this incident occurred, I was fifteen years old and helping my mother to earn a living for the two of us. Each day after school I would go to the shore near Cliffton, the village where I lived, and collect shells which my mother fashioned into souvenirs for summer tourists. One day, as I made my rounds, I came upon a hole in the face of the cliff. Soon my childish curiosity overcame my fear of the unknown, and I entered. I found myself in a sizeable cave which had a number of packing cases stacked along one wall. Just as I was about to investigate further, I heard the sound of men ' s voices approaching •, and, seeing no place to hide, I made a hasty exit by the same way that I entered. I told no one.of my month before I ventured last I became so curious I and longer. So, one afternoon in tourists had gone home and holiday, I told myself was going to find the the packing-cases. As I entered I became went home again, but one changed that.

As I was crawling over its rail, two pairs of the harbour, a twenty-foot • ' motor launch was moored. I was determined to investigate it! As I was crawling over its rail, two pairs of strong hands gripped me. I put up a fight, but it was hopeless. Before I knew it, they had me bound so securely that I could not move a muscle. Then they carried me up another flight of stairs to where there were living-quarters. Here I was greeted by a rough chorus of curses and threats. The two men who had captured me threw me against the- wall with no more ceremony than they would if they had been handling a sack of potatoes. THE TERMINAL Page 89 As I sat there I saw a garage to my left with two powerful foreign cars in it. Soon the men went into action. They went down to the cave and carried the cases to the cars. After a while they left, four in each car - then the whole garage j was lifted like an elevator to the top of the cliff. I was left in the charge of a big ape of a man named Biff Walters; and after a bit of questioning, my worst fears were allayed. This was an opium - smuggling ! gang wanted by the police in America as well as in British Columbia where they iirere now operating. Biff told me that the gang would be back at eight that evening and it was now four, which meant that I would have to work fast if I was to escape. (No doubt they intended to kill me when they returned.) By rubbing my bonds against the rock surface, I had freed my hand and untied ! my feet - unnoticed. I asked. Biff for some water; and while he was gone, I picked up a large stone. As he bent down to give me the water, I clubbed him on the back of the head with the stone. I then bound him securely and used the elevator garage, now in its place again, to make good my escape. Immediately I went to our police station where I told my story before a startled audience of two constables and one sargent, the whole of the Cliffton police force. They phoned to the nearest large police force for reinforcements, and while we waited, I told the sargent how to reach the place and what time to be there. After that he sent me home. The next day I was called to the Town Hall to receive my reward of Five Thousand Dollars for apprehending the gang. John Hughes, 9-U HONORABLE MENTION THE OUTLAW He was a fiendish devil we had heerd tell of, part mustang and part Arabian. A fleeting deer with the heart of a cougar was how he was commonly described. His colour was jet black with streaks of blue running through his mane. His head was short and stocky but his large nostrils accentuated his hate - filled eyes. It was a June day and, like many days in Idaho, there was no wind. The heat swelled your lungs and left your lips dry and cracked. After a long cattle drive, the sweltering heat left you gasping for breath. When we arrived at the Wells ranch there was much talk about a black stud who had stolen near to two hundred head of mares and colts. He’s got to be stopped, said the foreman bitterly. He’ll clean the lot of us out griped a small, mustached man. A devil. That’s all he is, and the only way to deal with his kind is with a bullet. And so it was decided that the outlaw was to be destroyed. A small band of men were picked the following day; and x rith a day’s and night’s equipment, they mounted and rode off. In our eagerness to see this amazing animal, we gathered our gear together and galloped after the tiny band. We rode all that day and part of the night. It was hot and dusty, and by early morning, some began to drop out. It wasn’t until noon that we spotted the herd. It lay in a secluded canyon with two passes leading outward to the long stretch of prairie. We edged our horses nearer, being careful not to attract the attention of the leader. Suddenly, one of the colts whinnied and the commotion j.Page ' 90 .. . ......THE TERMINAL | began. This was s bad boner on our part for now the stallion had the drop on us. He | appeared from out of the herd screaming and biting any horse he neared. His technique and operation were superb. He worked with perfect timing; and in an I instant, he had the horses on the move, edging them out of the canyon and onto the prairie where he knew he could not be challenged. Our aim was to try and separate | him from his herd. He seemed to sense something was wrong, but he was too late. | He was now alone. We had three men on each side of him, slowly closing in; his I only escape was to leap over the twenty foot crevice. Suddenly, he made a break. He opened into full stride, racing straight for I that death-defying leap. But the stakes seemed to fall against him, in his last I burst of speed his foot lodged in a gopher hole and he plunged headlong into the [ black tavern of death. Susan Alexander, 10-2U j HONORABLE MENTION THE STAND-BY Marsha stood looking out of her bedroom window. It was dull and dreary and j had been raining off and on all day, which only added to Marsha s depression. For, on this day, her dad lay in his room, dying. Several days earlier he had had a i heart attack. The trouble had come very suddenly to shock Marsha, who had always thought of her parents as being in good health. Oh why doesn’t someone come out of there? said Marsha, to herself, rather pettishly. They’ve been in there for over an hour. As she stood there she saw the doctor come out of her father’s room. She started, but stopped when she saw him shake his head. Marsha knew only too well what had happened benind that closed door. Is he - is he...? Marsha couldn’t make the words come out. I’m afraid he is, Marsha. I’m sorry, very sorry. Your father was a good man | and I know how much you loved him. Marsha nodded, unable to speak. The tears were nearly ready to come. Marsha, said the doctor, He died without knowing it; I mean he was asleep. I | thought you’d like to know. Marsha threw herself on the bed scarcely believing what had happened. Her j father - always so cheerful and happy, hardly ever sick - was gone, never to come j back again. Marsha wanted to cry, but the tears wouldn’t come. There was only a ! dull ache. She didn’t know how long she had been lying there; but when she got up, it was ! nearly dark. Outside, the stars were beginning to twinkle. It was a peaceful night. Downstairs in the living room, Marsha found her mother, sitting quietly, alone in the dark. Marsha went, silently, to sit next to her. Her mother said nothing, but | put her arms around her daughter, with a sigh that went straight to the girl’s heart. ! It was then that Marsha knew, without a word being spoken, how much her mother really i needed her and it was then that the tears came, - and they didn’t stop until she fell ; asleep, her head on her mother ' s shoulder. Chris Marriott, 10- 2h THE TERMINAL Page 91 FIRST PRIZE S S A Y FLYING SAUCERS ? One of the greatest controversies of our day concerns the existence of flying saucers or Unidentified Flying Objects. These objects have been sighted by observers all over the world. Mrr.y people believe that these Unidentified Flying Objects (U.F.O. ' s) are in reality space ships manned by creatures from another world. They believe that no earth man today has the technical knowledge required to build such a craft. Other people believe that U.F.O.s are nothing more than common weather balloons, reflections, clouds, stars, meteorites or hallucinations. Still others place the U.F.O.s in the category of the Loch Ness Monster, the unicorn, sea serpent and. Abominable Snowman. -. _____ Who are we to say what these mysterious ' : - - things are? It seems unlikely that they are y ' ' • — ' manned by creatures from another world, for j t there appears to be little chance that there is another planet which possesses the exact conditions necessary for life. If life does exist, is it likely that the life would be so much more advanced than ours? It is impossible to say one way or the other. Then, who, for example, has ever heard of these; weather balloons travelling against the wind at high speeds, a reflection where there is no glass, a cloud emitting an orange flashT ing light, stars moving rapidly about, making intricate turns, meteors falling like a leaf, stopping and zooming back upwards, or hallucinations being picked up on radar and chased by jet interceptors? Such explanations have been given to account for some of the U.F.Os. sighted. There have been so many sightings by reputable people that it is a little hard to place the V.F.O.s in the mythological category, y—These U.F.O.s, if real, must be present in J our skies at all times. It is significant that I ' with the coming of the Sputniks, there has been J 3 great increase in the number of U.F.O. _f sightings due to more people watching the heavens. Nobody can say for sure -what they are, but there is something in our skies.

The murmur of a small only sound that broke the and left stretched, high abov. peaks of th : Bavarian Alps, mist began to rise, a sun ' s formed to glittering diamonds- gathered on the leaves.

To my right ... all earthly dwellings, the • P -a Here and there, where the . --iy ( . ) T ray hit the grass and trans- ‘ the tiny droplets which had bird boan to sing. Soon Page 92 THE TERMINAL many others followed. The flowers which covered the mountain sides in immense I numbers awoke and unfolded; their blossoms giving beauty which only poets can describe. As I climbed higher over ancient rock where only sparse vegetation met my eye I felt a sudden expectation creeping over me. My watchful glance covered every stone, followed every cleft of weathered rock in search of the one, most noble sight: mountaingoats. Driven into the highest, most rugged parts of the Alps by ruthless hunters, the mountaingoats and sheep had become scarce and it was considered very lucky for a climber to see these shy, agile creatures of the mountains dance gracefully along high, narrow mountain rims. ' I lay on a sunbathed rock and waited hopefully for just such a sight. I must have fallen asleep, and how long I thus lay dreaming there I do not know. Suddenly frighten¬ ed out of happy thoughts, I awoke to wonder where I was. What I the n looked upon gave me great joy. Not far from me were five, slender, grey-figured mountaingoats who, surprised by my sudden move, stood like lifeless statues, cast in bronze. A rolling stone - five fleeing shadows, and they were gone. I sat quietly - my .camera, unmoved, within easy reach. Great emptiness in my belly then I felt. A sudden, roaring noise like that of thunder echoed loudly from the rocky x alls. I glanced up frightened - but all was still. Some giant rock had tumbled from unmeasured height. My heart was full of wonder as I stood up to walk home and further enjoy the silent splendor. Wilfred Wenzel, 10-27 HONORABLE MENTION THE LEAD BEAT This is the school, Viscount Bennett.

I told H2 I ' d get it; and, as I lifted the phone, I heard a woman ' s exasperating story. Apparently her little boy had been kidnapped. I took the address and told her we ' d be right over. We arrived at the scene and found the binder a mess. H2 poked me with his eraser and said, Looks like there ' s been a struggle. I agreed, and then we patiently listened to the weeping mother ' s story. It seemed that North Rite, her little boy, had been left on the desk top while Paper Mate made supper. When she came back, he was gone. We checked out all the leads and then returned to the scene of the crime to see if the lab-boys had overlooked anything. Sure enough, we found that the point of poor little North Rite had been broken and he was leaving a faint trail of red ink. We followed this trail through Literature class and up the stairs into Social. Here we stopped for a spare. We questioned the teacher and he told us that North Rite had been used to mark his register. We thanked him for his information and resumed the chase. We were fighting time now as the bell was about to ring and we would then be out of action for two days. The trail led us through Science, English and then into Math. As we entered, we scanned the place and finally located the boys in the back room playing poker with propositions 1 to 13. Up front the entertainment was in full swing where two beautiful dolls were singing the ABCs of Algebra without music. We began to search the place from end to end but with little hope. Then, suddenly, as we were | THE TER MINAL... . .. . ... ...... Page. 93 . about to leave, I felt and saw a neat red splash on my lead shoes. I poked H2 and looked up to the origin of the drip. Well, we couldn’t believe our eyes. There, hanging fro ' m the ceiling was Worth Rite. We got some help and rescued him. He immediately told us that yardstick of the meter side was our man. We arrested him and got a full confession. He was sentenced to two days in the wastepaper basket. We closed the case and turned in for the night. Donna Tildes ley,- 10--U3 j HONORABLE MENTION JOHNNY The most unforgettable charrcter I have ever met was a friend of my child¬ hood days, a boy named Johnny. This young fellow was one of the happiest, most alive people you could ever hope to meet. Not only was Johnny happy, he was not content unless those around him | were also happy. And he went out of his way to bring a smile to the lips of everyone he met. Johnny had several ways of doing this, but the most effective was to smile cheerfully and say, Hello, isn’t is a lovely day? Many times this brought a tear to the eye, as well as a smile to the lips. Courage was another one of his characteristics. This boy seemed to have no ! end of it. Those that knew him, will long remember the courage he displayed the day he) saved his young cousin from drowning. Here was a remarkable feat, indeed, - for Johnny was blind and crippled. How did he do it? Well, to explain it in his own words: It was simple. I just wheeled my chair far enough into the stream for her to grab it. He had been left alone with the children; and when one of their lives | had been endangered, Johnny, without thought of personal safety, had rescued her. Many of us wondered where his courage and stamina came from. I think its root was in the fact that Johnny was going to die. The horrible disease that had robbed him of his vision and the pleasure of physical exercise was going to cause his death. Ajid Johnny did die. Early one spring morning he spoke a few last words to his mother and passed quietly away. We were all deeply saddened by his death. But, somehow, just the fact that we had known him seemed to ease the pain.. For Johnny, though he’d, been with us only a short time, had set an example for all of us. I know that whenever I am ! faced with difficulty or danger I will remember Johnny and the obstacle will disappear. Yes, he left us a great heritage.

Mariel he cried. The Germans are coming. We must prepare for them. Oh, Marcell How horrible. What shall we do? she sobbed. After putting the children to bed, he told her of his plan. First, he would burn the grain and then, he would — kill them. After a few moments of despair, Marie agreed that this method was the best idea. Together, they walked to the fields and stood looking at their crops for a last time. Realizing he had little time, Marcel started the fire. They watched it greedily, lighting the countryside with its flames. Soon, the work was done and the couple turned their backs on the smoldering ashes to face their last task.

The once x arn, velvety- brown eyes stare coldly ahead an d you know he is dead. There is a lump in your throat as you try to hold back the flood of emotion, and your blurry eyes blink repeatedly. You look at what was once yours as a helpless pup, then as a full-grown dog, and you try to imagine he is sleeping as you have seen him sleep hundreds of times before. But his features are imperfect; his head is too long, his body seems pitifully small, and he .is lifeless. There is no rhythmic breathing pulsating the little cocker spaniel. He xtfas not like this when he romped with you, when he barked excitedly about you, jumping up playfully. When he shared your little adventures, your emotions, a part of your life. When he heaped affec¬ tion unselfishly upon you, when he alone trusted you. Now you remember the little things about him that made you love him, that made him different from any other dog. -Little things that seemed unimport¬ ant then; times when he would search your pockets.with that moist, friendly nose, hoping to discover a treat, or times when you shared your warmth with him on cold nights (or in the daytime), and how he would always curl himself at your feet and yours alone. You dreamily tap the little body xirith your foot to see if it s really there, and your foot tells you that it is. Your eyes travel over him now and your mind travels back to long ago, to yesterday and the days before. The satin-smooth coat of gold that you often fondly petted is dull now, covered by the dust and oil of the road. You glimpse the little stub of his tail and you try to imagine how it once wriggled in greeting when you cane home at the end of a day. As you stare down at him you see that his tongue spreads out of the open mouth and lies in the dirt. You can remember when you felt its warn caress on your cheek. His mouth is ugliest of all now, because it-is grotesquely open and a trickle | of blood has flowed out of one of its corners. His expression is the one he died with, and you can read the fear and pain in it. And you know, too, that though the most of his barking during the four years he lived was joyous, this last bit was not. You I choose not to recall his last clarion call to the world.

Ron Huck, 11-30 HONORABLE MENTION REWARD M’liss Clark lived in the small town of River Forks, Arkansaw. She was a striking girl, tall and willowy with long, black, shiny hair and wide-set brown eyes. Her family had lived in River Forks for seven years now and everyone knew and liked them, everyone that is, except the Carter family. Betty-Lou Carter, who was in M liss’s class at River Forks High School, thought that she would rather die than associate with M’liss. The Clarks, in her opinion, had no place in River Forks or any other city in America because they were Negroes. Betty-Lou had been brought up to believe that she was superior to Negroes and not to associate with them, but in a small town like River Forks they were bound to be thrown together. Such was the situation on the Saturday that the junior class decided to go on a riding party. The sun was shining brightly as the young people started on the ' ir way and before long they were racing across the countryside, their merry laughter filling the air. Suddenly Betty-Lou s horse stumbled and before the astonished eyes of her class-mates she was thrown violently to the ground, her horse on top of her. The frightened horse got up and galloped away but Betty-Lou was still. Quick , cried one of the girls, go to the nearest house and phone for the ambulance. We won’t j move her until they get here. To M’liss and her friends it seemed like an eternity before the screaming sirens of the ambulance could be heard. The car lurched to a sudden stop and the attend¬ ants got out. What happened? one of then asked, and while M ' liss explained, the other two carefully lifted the injured girl and placed her on a stretcher. The day was spoiled and- the dispondent students rode home thinking of the accident. On Monday the entire town knew that Betty-Lou Carter would be crippled for life. Betty-Lou had many visitors} some came from duty, some from curiosity and some were genuinely interested in her well-being. M’liss was one of the latter. At first Betty-Lou resented M’less visiting her - , but, as the months wore on, although most of her friends stopped coming, M’liss remained faithful. When at last Betty-Lou was able to go out, it was M’liss who wheeled her around, who helped her with her homework, who kept her posted on activities in the school. Gradually the Carter household realized how much they depended on this quiet Negro girl and as they did their prejudices began to disappear. The months sped by quickly and it was time for graduation exercises. Students were being presented with awards and M’liss was one of them. As her turn cane Mr. Brown, principal of the school said, To M ' liss Clark for her work both in the school | and community goes the citizenship award-and we have here tonight a young lady who wishes to say a few words about it. Everyone clapped as Betty-Lou was wheeled out on the stage. I have just a few words I would like to say. Last fall, at the time of my ' accident try family and I had an absurd idea that the White race was much superior to any other race. It has taken this accident-to show us that we were wrong, very wrong. I think you all know what I mean. We have found that Negroes and Whites can live e 99 THE TERMINAL together in oneness and in happiness and that in itself is a lesson which some people require a lifetime to learn. I only wish the entire world could benefit from our experience. If there were a bigger award for citizenship, especially in the community, it would be M’liss Clark who would deserve it. The hall was silent for a moment then filled with the rousing ovation of the crowd as Betty-Lou handed M’liss her award.

Some¬ one once stopped to watch you, but it was so long ago. Since the beginning, you have always observed and something has always been there to watch you in return. I swear this to be true and if it is not true then I am not the bead of sweat on your forehead, nor do you exist, nor does the earth and all that inclines to rest upon it. Ron Huck, 11-30 SECOND PRIZE (Tied) TRIVIALITIES We’re spoiled ' . You’re spoiled, the whole world is spoiled, including myself. We get whatever ouf hungry hearts (and mouths, as well) desire. Our parents, leaders and teachers cater to our every whim and want. Our houses are brimming with utterly useless contrivances such as doors, walls and little sisters. Look around you, at home, at school, what do you see? TRIVIALITIES, of coursel Utter nuisances such as the aforementioned, actually hinder us and Miserablize our lives. How many times have you collided with a door (truthfully nowj none of the black-eye excuses )? If there were no such monstrosities, entrances between rooms would be unobstructed, there would be no scratches on walls (another group of extraneous objects), thus eliminating the otherwise necessary repainting. Of what earthly good is a wall? Inten¬ tionally jutting out into most corridors, walls seem to have an almost uncanny ability to be in the right place (direct¬ ly in front of you) at the wrong time. Without walls, we would need no expensive paintings to cover the conspicuous cracks and holes, ' ' we would not have to heat many separate rooms, but one large one with a central heater. You see. I’ve saved you money already. Sisters, touch sub¬ jects at the best of times, were created in my opinion, to balance the world; most other things ar e- pleasant and serve some purpose, but sisters, on the other hand, are just that - on the other hand. Glimpsing at the topic of trivialities from another angle, we find that today, people (mainly: the species(?) known as woman ) get worked up and flustered over the most trifling bits of nonsense. Meeting an acquaintance on the street, you comment on her new coat. That person, after considering the ’remark, wanders aimlessly off, wondering whether it was a comment or a subtle insult. This is typical of the way j THE TERMINAL ....Page.102. people take nonsensical, meaningless remarks to heart. A famous American indulgence also takes root in this fact; this is gossip, one part of our way of life, without which they (who else but girls and women?) could not possibly subsist. In concluding, possibly I should define the word triviality in simple language. If you call something trivial, in my opinion you floccinaucinihilipilifi- cate it. Elliot Gelfand, 11-29 | SECOND PRIZE (Tied) TODAY ' S TEENAGER . Today ' s teenager is to his friends, priceless; to psychiatrists, the tenth wonder of the world; to his parents, independence itself; to teachers, the worst monstrosity since the atom bomb; and to the opposite sex, super with a capital S . Since grandfather ' s day the status of teenagers has changed quite severely. They are the general topic of parents ' conversations, teachers ' conferences, and openhouse discussions. It would be difficult to define the average teenage girl adolescent, but for the most, part, she ate discipline, school, i crawly insects, ccw- boredom.

Your first reaction is one of shocked silence. The dainty pink bureau cover has been replaced by a drooping red flannel cover with blue patches. (This you soon discover is a new fad.) The walls are not visible be¬ cause of the pictures, most of which are those of males. The bed is unmade. From the look of it you presume that it has not been made for several days. On the floor I are strewn a pair of yellow pcdal-pushers, two sweaters, a True Romance , a photo j album, a baseball cap, her brother ' s plaid shirt, and a few other valuables . This I change is too much. You leave the room, but decide to ignore the matter. The next | week you get her a record player for her birthday. Later you wonder what ever I persuaded you to do such a thing. She buys records endlessly, but not ones that produce musical sounds. You don ' t know exactly what they produce. On and on they j drone into the wee small hours of the morning. The dog leaves home, the neighbours start complaining, and you buy yourself a pair of good quality ear-plugs. One day you find she has a boyfriend. Now you say to yourself, This will surely make her dress and act like a lady. But, Oh, how wrong you arel Since the current fad is to dress like your boyfriend, she wears blue jeans about three sizes too small, a leather jacket, moccasins, and to top it all off, gets her hair haggled | off, and the two of then tear off on a motorcycle leaving you choking in a cloud of j dust. j -V simply cannot toler- boys with short hair, boy heroes, and on independence, moccasins, Karlon private phones, and, twelve or thirteen mannered child who and who does her However, this stage appears, and the next comes noticeable are forbidden to en- why, daughter pat- is her private do- her valuables.

For the most part you are glad this era has passed, but a little sorry too, for without teenagers to mix everything up, the world would indeed be a drab place in which to reside. Don Mood, 11-29 HONORABLE MENTION SIZE TWELVE My size twelve dresses and I were engaged in a quarrel. They defiantly refused to. accommodate the superfluous excess of my rather rotund mid-section . Although this was wholly understandable, when one regarded the situation from their point of view (at the time of their purchase, they had been led to believe that they would have to encompass more than a two-foot girth of waist-line), I was, nevertheless, aghast at their undue proclamation. Their forecluding that it was a matter of obesity rather than laundry-shrinkage, which had casued the aforementioned tightness of my dresses, shook me to the roots of my firm belief in their loyalty. As a consequence of our disagreement, I found myself in the inevitable position of a disheartened girl with two alternatives: either I purchase a new wardrobe, or yield to the demands of the defiant ones and remove the source of the argument by placing myself on a diet. Having decided to follow the latter, stratagem, —because of the present, embarrassing situation in which Dad ' s bankbook had found itself, I immediately commenced to acquire the necessary dietary data. Perusing several informative articles on The Diet , I learned that I would have to climb 376 flights of stairs, paint the house four times and box ten rounds, before I could burn off one pound of supplementary weight. Realizing that this approach would be physically impossible, I decided rather wisely, to abandon this approach to the problem. Another, apparently pleasanter, plan provided for no exercise at all—merely that I place myself on a diet of skim milk, water cress, dog biscuits and bird seed, for a period of one month, and that at the end of such a time, I would have lost fifteen pounds. If any¬ one would then doubt my good health, my gay chirps and cold nose would prove other¬ wise. As I wasn ' t overly fond of the brand of dog biscuits my mother purchased, this scheme found no personal encouragement. A third and final article, advertised the dietie of the multitudinous benefits of the gyrator and steam bath. This method of reducing really appealed to me, as it definitely guaranteed amazing results in five simple treatments. Having been kneaded, joggled and dehydrated in such a way, that it was impossible to determine whether I was coming or going. I soon relinquished the idea of returning to those contortion chambers and departed to my abode, crest-fallen. There did not appear to be any possible method of removing my cumbersome avoir¬ dupois. The battle between my dresses and me had come to a complete stalemate. With neither of us wishing to concede it seemed that the deadlock would endure an eternity. Suddenly to my complete mortification, the solution to the problem dawned on me. We would reach a compromisell Smugly, I congratulated myself on this most appropriate brain flash . I must say that my dresses were extremely thankful when I informed them of my stratagem. The plan was simple —I merely visited our dressmaker and asked her to enlarge the waist-lines by two inches. The battle is now overl A peace settlement has been reached -- we are now happily reunited. Ruth Coe, 11-28 THE TERMINAL Page.10U HONORABLE MENTION GOING STEADY This is not an unusual topic. Going steady has happened to eveiy boy, and it will continue to do so throughout the coming centuries. Men, a lurking danger awaits you in every school, teen club -- perhaps in the house next door. It is the girl who wants to go steady. And how can a poor, un¬ suspecting boy like me protect myself? Should I go into hiding until I’m fifty years of age? (When I ' m fifty, I should be able to cope with a wife.) Going steady creates many problems for me. When I go steady, my other activities become limited. No more going out with the boys, no mor going stag to parties and having a wonderful time with all the girls. Now I have to make enough money to take my steady to the best cafe and shows in town. I have to be a big brother to her brother, contend with her mother, and be a chore boy for her father. And, to top off all my troubles, I have the worry of wondering what would happen if another boy came ' along with more money or a better car — or both. Maybe I shouldn’t worry. Maybe I should just let her go with someone else. Look at all the money I could save. At Christmas time it costs me a fortune to buy presents for her whole family. (I’m beginning to believe that married life is for dopes only.) Of course, I could be a confirmed bachelor. But, you know, it is going to be hard to get rid of my gal — there’s no antidote for the love bug. Maybe I should just tell her I cannot support her family anymore and that her father will just have to get a job. (I haven ' t the nerve to tell her that I don’t want to go steady anymore. She might say it would be all right, and then look at all the money I would have lost by going steadyl) Well, there’s nothing I can do about it now. I guess if I go around with her for another thirty-five years, I can get married as I ' ll be old enough to then. Besides, I won’t be losing.any more money. Lenn Fenn, 11-30 HONORABLE MENTION THE KING OF FOODS Have you ever stopped to analyse that sandwich that you have tucked away in your lunch box? Have you ever stopped and called it the King of foods? you and the millions of others who indulge in these delicacies each and every day of the year? A theory of how the sandwich received its worthful title began in the eighteenth j century. A Duke, the Earl of Sandwich x as looking for something easy ' to eat. He then ordered his servants to bring him two slabs of bread with beef between them. Soon the pegple of his kingdom began asking for the same ' as sandwich . This is j believed to be thr sal beginning of the common word meaning of sandwich . Advocates of sandwiches c ' me in very many forms. The nutritionists, people Who study foods, point out the fact that in a sandxtfich a person may obtain a wholesome and well balanced diet. The filling that goes into the sandwich is rich in protein, the bread is an important source of Vitamin B, while the butter or.margarine is an important source of Vitamin A. Thb psychologists, people who study the reason for things, give a clue why the sandwich is so revered. They state that the public likes to eat hand to mouth foods instead of eating knife, fork and spoon .foods . Still another reason why these morsels are rated ' tops’ is that a Do-it-yourself craze has swept the country. The easiest and most interesting part of a party for both children and grownups is to display a mixture of fillings and different types of bread and leave the making of the sandwiches to the guests, which leads to a very good type of refreshment. People seem to go for the sandwich because they are speedy, just like the age-in j which we are living, easy to make and just because they are just right for a quick I snack. j. THE TERMINAL .. ...........,.Page.105. All through the country the sandwich is loved. In the States King Sandwich is a frequent visitor at the White House. According to the chief cook, the president likes small, trimmed, two-bite sandwiches composed of water cress and cream cheese. Prime Minister and Mrs. Deifenbaker keep a supply of cream puffs which they use with a filling of tuna salad or finely chopped tuna. Since familiarity breeds contempt we are so accustomed to seeing, making and eating sandwiches that lire do not generally stop to think how high up on the list of good foods they are. Because of the great importance and value that they have, they have become a very important means of obtaining a meal and thus are generally accepted on the Canadian diet. So, next time you open your lunch box and peer in and frown at that sandwich that is within, just think of what it means to the rest of humanity and its importance.
