Once again it is my happy privilege to offer to you, the students of W.D.H.S. my congratulations on the successful complet- ion of the second edition of Actiana since moving into the new school. I would like to congratulate particularly the members of the year book committee. The year book has an important place in the life of the school, and it is most encouraging to find so many students willing to sacrifice time and effort in order to make possible such a worthwhile enterprise. May I offer to the members of the graduating classes my hearty felicitations on the successful completion of your Second- ary School studies. Your brief sojurn of four or five years has merely been your nov- itiate during which you have been engaged in learning more and more about less and less. This is known as specialization, and it will become more evident as you proceed to institutions of higher learning. If in this preliminary stage you have achieved the pro- per objective, of learning how to think rather than what to think, you are in- deed to be congratulated. The ability to think for yourself, to walk alone, was never more needed than in this period of propaganda and mass thinking. W. C. F. WEIR We are living in a rapidly changing world with atomic energy much in the foreground. The demand for well qualified scientists was never greater or more essential. Our educational system is attempting to keep pace with the rapid change around us. However in spite of the demand for scientists the abil- ity to use your native language with fluency and power and to write it gram- matically and neatly is of paramount importance. Your daily life will demand skill and accuracy in mathematics and a good general knowledge of many other subjects. Permit me to encourage all of you to read widely. Good citizenship de- mands a keen knowledge of the world and its affairs and the ability to discuss them with others. It is the duty of our schools to produce leaders and conscien- tious thinkers in our community, national and international sphere. An ancient philosopher wrote There is no royal road to learning and his statement is as true today as it was two thousand years ago. Many aids have been devised and developed in the last century, but he who desires an education must pay for it with his own individual sincere effort. Education involves a cer- tain amount of sacrifice. It may be necessary to forgo more attractive activities in order to accomplish the task at hand. Be steadfast in your objectives and you will surely succeed. Now, members of the graduating class, we wish you continued health, happiness and success. Of the first two of these, health and happiness, nothing more need be said. In connection with success, may I quote from Albert Ein- stein: Possessions, outward success, publicity, luxury- - - to me these have al- ways been contemptible. I believe that a simple and unassuming manner of life is best for everyone, best for both the body and the mind. Or, If I may quote again: For what shall it profit a man if he shall gain the whole world and lose his own soul? This thought is valid in religion, literature, economics and politics, in every walk of life. W. C. F. WEIR Principal -15- EDITORIAL . . . This edition of 'Actiana' marks the cul- mination of the wholehearted efforts of my staff in producing for you what we hope is a clear and exact picture of school activities for the 1954-1955 school year. This institut- ion of which each of us is a part has enjoyed constant growth not only physically but also spiritually for the past five years. The prime goal of every school is a degree of education which will be unequalled and envied for some time to come, and if we are to attain this goal, each must play his or her part and strive for standards yet unclaimed by any other institution. The corridors of this building boom with continual activity each adding to the development of character and to the fellow- ship and education already gained. Educat- ion is an advantage not easily obtained and knowledge grasped either in an active parti- cipation in class or in recreation is an asset BRUCE CAMPBELL which is of no little importance. In this world of today in which education plays such an important part in developing the forces of Good and Evil, one does well to remember that through the activities, friendships and good habits developed at school the influence for Good is nurtured and that for Evil is suppressed. The evil that men do lives after themg The good is oft interred with their bones. This quotation from Shakespeare's Julius Caesar could well be applied to the present activities of this confused world and if we are to outweigh the forces of evil at work today we must be prepared to use our education to dispell the dark clouds of despair and write for the pages of history a clear comprehensive story of conquests begun and finished in the interest of this Christian Nation. I men- tion this to each student as it is with us that the future of this country lies and if we are to carry it through to the top we must learn how to give and take or- ders to the best of our ability. This we learn through contact with teacher and student, and if it is to be conducted in a harmonious manner, we must each realize our individual capacity and hence attempt to discipline ourselves accord- ingly. With these thoughts, and this record of our activities for the past year, I sincerely hope each of us may strive to create for Wallaceburg District High School a name which will command respectg a school spirit which will extend friendship and a pride equal in magnitude to our school motto, Sapientia Hom- inum Custos .

Just as a stream will become muddied if enough of the wrong kind of soil is allowed to enter the stream, similarly if the mind is subjected to enough of the wrong kind of literature it will become soiled and perhaps drugged so it cannot reach the limitless horizons of great literature. The test of literature through all time is, does it raise your ideals or does it lower them? Does it help to build a better world? Books that are worthwhile last through the years. while the remaining books are quickly submerged in the ranks of forgotten literature. Books with unclean thoughts are books for the student to leave unread. lt is beyond the comprehension, the number and variety of well-written books with uplifting ideals, from which a student may choose. Literature is a means of learning and if a student could only realize the tremendous importance of his choice of books, he would choose more thoughtfully the literary pebbles they let fall into the pool of their mind. Tom Brunt -19- COURTESY .... To us, living in this modern, up to date, atomic age of the twentieth century, courtesy, chivalry and politeness seem to have been obliterated and entirely exterminated from the dictionary. The way young people of today act is ridiculous, bombastic and entirely idiotic. I, for one, am sick and tired of seeing pupils arguing with teachers, children arguing with parents, motorists arguing with pedestrians and so on all down the line. The four C's, chivalry, courtesy, care and common sense, all go together to make an extremely import- ant factor of modern day living. The way courtesy is being mistreated and ignored is something worth not talking about. Rather, if I were to write a book on examples of Ignorance of Courtesy a great deal of it would be unfit to print! Wallaceburg District High School is a good example of what I have been talking about for the last seventeen lines! First of all there are the cafeteria lines where all angels and archangels of grade ten become fearless, gruesome buccaneers or better still just plain devils, with the motto death to anyone who gets in our way! The person who is at the first of the line may eventually find himself at the extreme end or perhaps underneath the line of bloodthirsty, famished scavengers. Wallets are swiped, toes are crushed and noses are put to bleeding, while the unlucky victim may spend the rqst of the day in the nurse's room and the subdued criminal sent to spend an extended sentence in room fifteen. All of this juv- enile delinquency for a forty cent meal, as you can see, just ends with the act- or in the sin bin and the receiver in the hospital. Next, and even more shocking is the bus line at four o'clock. I do not know if every bus line is like that of bus number one, but I may be safe in saying that one bus line like bus number one's is absolutely enough, thank you! The lack of courtesy is tremendous. The line will be in perfect shape in knowledge of the rules of etiquette when student X from class Y bursts through the doors at tremendous speed, knocks over a row of girls, sprawls their books and belongings over half the school grounds and then takes his earned position at the extreme premier of the line: while the girls pick them- selves up delicately and commence to sort out their scattered and demolished wreckage. This is not all, mind you! There remains the fact that everyone, I repeat everyone wants a seat next' to the window that opens, not too close to the front and preferably to the right side, and not too near the heater, and definitely not over the wheel, and so on. When we do get on, there is a mad scramble for one seat during which pencils, rulers, rubbers, books, geometry sets, hats, gloves, mitts, scarves, earmuffs, glasses and believe it or not, even shoes are lost and later picked up as the owner leaves the bus! The main in- strument or defence and revenge is the compass, which when opened to its extreme radius is an excellent, cunning little weapon. Others include bean shooters, pea shooters, elastic bands, homemade catapults made of clothespins and big heavy school books, the nice flat kind that makes a lovely wack when forcibly descended upon a person's already deeply creased skull! Further- more, if you do not want your books scattered the length and width of the bus, it would be wise to carry a suitcase. Next is the problem of classroom courtesy. Every time the bell rings for change of classes, there is mass confusion in every room. The scientific law, no two things can occupy the same space at the same time is completely dis- regarded, as the completely exhausted pupils of math class suddenly pick up an extra quantity of vigour and vim and sally forth into battle at the porthole of the classroom. Though there have been no fatalities it would make a wonderful scene in a murder mystery on television. It takes twice or three times as long to get out of a classroom in this way as it would if a bit of court- esy and chivalry were put to practice. Courtesy to teachers as well as fellow pupils should be exercised. I could go on and on and on on this topic, but I think this is sufficient to illustrate just how courtesy is being used today. The answer is definitely negative, isn't it? Donald Moffat -20- LITERARY ia? B 41 s 11V 0 :'. ' .' I 'G PLAY ....

I woke this morn with thoughts of mild dismay, That sonnet to write must it be ready today? There is more to consider than words that will rhyme, You must have a certain number of feet in a line. I think I shall have to write about summer or winter, But first I must pay attention to the metre. I must think of a theme that is cheery and light. Oh, this is not a sonnet, now I'm in a plight. I've thought and I've thought but nothing comes to mind That compares to Milton's poem to the blind. The metre is wrongg the rhyme is not right, I have not thought of a theme that is cheery and light. I wish someone would hurry and come to my aid, For after all, you know, poets are born and not made. Marietta Campbell 12B SKYLINE .... You towering peaks, reach up your arms, your head. To touch the clouds so white, so pure, so rare. You leave this town whose streets are greys and leads To join the birds on high in this much purer air. At dawn, dark roofs are bright, and then are dark again As the sun lights up your face, and then moves on To touch with beams of gold you who have lain In wait the night for one shaft, first here, then gone. Comes dusk, your spires all melt into the vast black Of the sky and from your windows gleaming front A million points of light like gems wink back A word of cheer to those who long, who hunt For joy amidst this world of majesty and height Which conveys to all alike, both strength and might. Betty McAllister 13 THE WEATHER .... The soft winds melted all the fallen snow, On Candlemas the sun shone bright and clear, But ground-hog tracks about caused me to know That there would be two winters in that year. Last night the forecast for this section said, Tomorrow we'll have fog and wind and rain. But I had seen the sun set bright and red So knew the weather would be fine again. The hills resounded to the thunder's roarg The lightning flashed a blaze across the sky: But I'd been fooled by Summer's whims before And knew that all signs fail when weather's dry So to make use of all this knowledge gained, I chose our picnic date and right! It rained. Mary Glasgow 12B -24- BIG MGNSTER .... The chairs were scattered round aboutg The table was littered with books And there in the corner the monster stood With glarey and blinding looks. With a blaring voice and glaring face The monster ruled supreme And all around the slaves sat bound, Dazed, as in a dream. Morning, noon and night it blared, It never seemed to stop, Until one night at eight-fifteen Something inside went pop . All is calm, the monster is gone, The chairs are back in place, And there in the corner where the monster stood, There is an empty space. But alas my friends, the monster is back, The chairs, wide-scattered they beg And there in the corner the monster stands, A twenty-one inch T.V. NORTHLAND NIGHT . . . Into the night comes a high-pitched cry: As the snowy owl goes floating byg Rabbits and rodents in their dens do quiver, Fear stabbing their hearts and making them shiver. A fox on the hilltop barks at the moon, While from the lake comes the call of the loon. A buck's trail is outlined against the snow, Telling who cared where he did go. A victory cry from the forest within, Calls to a feast the wide-spread wolf king Many the buck that heard that dare And all but trembled in his lair. Then comes the lull before the dawn, Broken by only the half-grown fawn That stirs up its bed where it did lay And rises, to greet the breaking day. -25- David Mann - 10B Albert Schmidt - 10D VALEDICTORIANS ADDRESS .... Mr. Chairman, members of the Staff, ladies and gentlemen, and fellow students I have been given the honour of saying the grand farewell, on behalf of the 1954 graduating class. It is not an easy task to express the feeling of all of the graduates, for we each have different thoughts and memories as we gather together in our familiar auditorium for the last time. It has been five years since we, as bewildered grade nine students, made our way to High School. That day as now, we were the centre of attraction. Grade ten students stared at us as if to say. We could tell you a few things, but we'll let you find out for yourselves. Sophisticated grade thirteen students audibly made remarks to the effect of, They get younger every year, don't they? Members of the staff exchanged knowing glances, as they prepared to mould these blundering innocents into High School students. We came as happy, careless children, we leave still full of the joy and zest of living, but no longer careless. Life has taken on new meaning for us: we have learned that each must make his own contribution in life, and that no one else can make it for him. Being able to attend High School is a golden opportunity. This is the period when you store up, not wealth, but an important means of gaining wealth. A period when you make yourself a more respected person because your more efficient usefulness in whatever calling you may follow. A period for making friendships that will not easily be forgotten. The Wallaceburg District High School has been more than just a school to us, it has been our second home. She has educated us, not only in the fine arts but in character, personality and the social field. For some of us it has tak- en a lot of pounding, chipping and patching to produce the results. Do not misinterpret this statement. We graduates are not setting ourselves up on a pedestal, as examples of perfectly rounded individuals, but I am convinced that if there is any diamond quality in us, it shines more now than when we first started. We owe a great deal to all our teachers. We can only now realize what task they set themselves when they undertook to educate us in 1948. The credit for the change that has taken place if, indeed, there has been any change, we owe it to them. We extend to them this evening our most sincere appreciation for all they have meant to us. I would also like to express our appreciation to Mr. Weir, for whom we all have the deepest respect, not only as principal, but as a true friend. We would also like to say a big thank you to all our Moms and Dads, who made it possible for us to attend High School and encouraged us when the going was rough. Tonight, there are mingled feelings surging within us. We are on the threshold of new, varied experiences. As graduates, we are stepping from the small, happy family composing the student body to that of the larger group forming the alumni. Some of us will proceed to schools of higher learning, others will take up immediate positions in the business world, still others will form that essential part of society, namely, farmers. In whatever field, lo- cality, or position we may be engaged, we have responsibilities. We owe a service to our fellow men, to our country, to our queen and to our God. The manner of conduct portrayed in the fulfillment of our duties will reflect upon our school. May we, by God's help, so live that we can bring glory and honour to the school we love, that she may be proud to include the 1954 graduating class among her highly esteemed children. -26- So, we take our leave of the Wallaceburg District High School as many others have done and many more will. We shall always carry with us the pleas- ant memories of our sojourn here and all the dear associations connected with it. We leave to face a world which may not be as friendly as we have found this place to be, but with the weapons we have been given here, we fearlessly fling our challenge to that world, take up our banner of idealism, and march on to our destiny.

Jean: Pretty soon all the boys will be Indians. Ariel: Why so? Jean: Because they have bow ties and arrow collars. Mr. Beacroft: Where did you get that bump on your head? Andy Wickens: That's where a thought struck me. -47- -48- SPDRTS W.D.H.S. FIELD MEET .... A High jump, softball throw, discus throw and running broad jump are to start at once, were the first sounds to come over the loud speaker on Sept- ember 29 at W.D.H.S. It was a dark cloudy morning, but everyone thought it would clear up. By noon the dark clouds had opened their doors and covered the campus with their tears. During lunch hour this was the general conver- sation: I wonder if it will stop raining? , Do you think Mr. Weir will let the field meet go on? , I wonder if we will have school or not this afternoon? , I hope we don't because I have blue jeans on and my skirt is at home. At one o'clock it was still drizzling and everyone thought the field meet would be called off but Mr. Weir saved the day. He said that the field meet would go on inspite of the rain and as the students left the classroom a happy mur- mur could be heard all over the school. Despite the cool rainy weather, eight records were broken, and all by the boys. In the boys' juvenile class, Gary Bogaert was champion with 10 points, claiming the championship with more firsts than Gary Barnes who also ran up 10 points. Gordon Webb won the junior crown in like manner over Peter Hen- sel, both having 14 points. Two intermediate boys' records were set, one by Gordon Langstaff and one by Gordon Webb. Gord Langstaff finished the 220 yard dash in 25.7 seconds, and Gordon Webb broke the discus record of 83' by throwing it 85 feet. The senior boys' events seemed to catch the interest of the majority of the spectators. Doug McKenzie won the championship with 23 points and Art Houle was runner-up with 16 points. There were five records set in the senior class and Doug, in setting three new records broke two of his own set last year. In the high jump he did 5' 8 bettering his own 5' 7 last year. In the pole vault he set a mark of 11' 5 to beat his own mark of 9' 10 last year. In the running broad jump he did 20' to erase Don Mann's mark of 19' 3 set in 1951. Gerry Ayres and Doug put on quite an exhibition of pole vaulting in which Gerry broke his wrist but despite this handicap threw the discus 116' 6 , bett- ering Art. Houle's record of 104' 1 set last year. In the senior mile race, everyone's favourite, Bill Norman was beaten by a whirlwind which nobody knew existed - Barrie Davis, whose 5 minutes and 8 seconds broke the old record of 5 minutes and 18 seconds set by Bert Eves in 1942. Marion McGaffey took the senior championship with 17 points, beating Madeline Punnewaert by only two points. In the senior girls' relay, Plewes House came out on top with 41.2 seconds to beat the old record of 43 seconds. Jean Tracy topped the intermediate girls' division with 18 points, followed by Cathy Eagleson with 12. In the junior division, Gay McCreery came up on top with 15 points, followed closely by Judy Vye. Plewes House also won the Junior girls' and Dundas succeeded in winning the intermediate relay. In the boys' relay race Dickenson won the juvenile and senior and Laing House won the junior. In the intermediate class Plewes House set a new record of 52.4 seconds to better the old record of 52.6, and incidentally, Laing House won the field meet. YEA! LAING! Mr. Wallace: You didn't answer my question, Dave. Dave Domanski: I nodded my head, sir. Mr. Wallace: Well, you don't expect me to hear it rattle up here, do you? Miss Quigley : Why did Hannibal cross the Alps? Don Myers: To get to the other side, of course. Mr. Balkwill: Find the H.C.F., Jim. Jim Lumley: You don't mean to say that thing is lost again? -50- TRACK AND FIELD TEAM .... W.LD.l'l.S. First Place Winners - K.C.S.S.A. Contestants - W.O.S.S.A. Contestants Front Row - lean Tracy.

Yea White! were the only sounds coming from the W.D. H.S. buses as they entered Chatham Community Centre on Oct. 6th for the 23rd annual Kent County Secondary School Athletic Association Field Meet. At nine o'clock in the morning the stands were filled with high-spirited stud- ents, yelling and waiting for the events to start. It was a memorable day for the athletes as they all are, but it wasn't a victorious day for Wallaceburg ath- letes according to points but in school spirit and sportsmanship, I would say W.D.H.S. students were outstanding. To start the ball rolling Gary Bogaert of our juvenile boys won the running broadg Stewart Kennedy and Jim Hagen won first and third in the pole vault and Bob Lumley came in third in the 75 yard dash. The junior girls' energetic relay team, consisting of Betty Rankin, Mar- sha Thornton, Gay McCreery and Darlene Bastow took second place. Our light footed Gay McCreery won second in the standing broad and third in the 75 yard dash and Jean Elliott won third place in the high jump. In the junior boys' division, Lorne McKim took third place in the high jump and Tom McLaughlin captured second place in the running broad. John Miller placed second in the pole vault as did the relay team consisting of G. Webb, L McKim, G. Langstaff and T. McLaughlin. Yea! Team! The little deer Jean Tracy was Intermediate Champ with 10 points winning firsts in the 75 yard dash and running broad. Our intermediates placed first in the basketball speed pass and the speedy relay team consisting of M. Burritt, M. Campbell, C. Eagleson and J. Tracy took second place. In the intermediate boys' events, G. Watson took third in the discus and F. McRae took third place in the pole vault. The boys, as it seems here did not make a very good showing but believe me they really deserve to be congratulated for the fine effort they made. K Our favourite girl athlete, Marion McGaffey was senior girls' champ- ion with 15 points, winning firsts in the standing broad, running broad and the 75 yard dash. Our girls came third in the basketball speed pass and Nadine McGregor won third place in the softball throw and Shirley Bastow placed second in the 75 yard dash. The senior boys' champion was Doug McKenzie with 20 points which was the allotted number of points. He won first in all of his events which were high jump, pole vault, hop, step and jump, and the running broad. I think everyone will agree with me that Doug needs to be congratulated so, Congrat- ulations, Doug! Our famous runners, Leslie Files and Barrie Davis took first and second in the mile race. Jim Glasgow captured second place in the 440 yard dash and the running broad. Gerry Ayres, in spite of his broken wrist, won first in the discus throw and Peter Ayres took second place in the pole vault. Not once during the day did the kids stop shouting encouraging phrases to our athletes. The stands were rocking with stamping of feet and clapping of hands whenever a Wallaceburg athlete was participating in an event. Our en- ergetic cheerleaders deserve a great deal of praise for the way in which they kept the kids yelling together. After the last event was completed, a silence fell over the stadium as everyone eagerly awaited the results. When it was announced that C.C.I. was first with 173 points, groans could be heard from the Wallaceburg spectators. but when the announcement said Wallaceburg was second with 159 points, hats and ribbons flew in the air, horns blared and kids cheered. As Wallaceburg buses left the stadium, the school song came floating out the open windows. -52- SR. GIRL'S VOLLEYBALL .... I-'irsl Row - Barbara Hazzard. 'Miss E. Ough. BA.. 'Iulie Vestrocy.

Our girls' volleyball team is tops in Western Ontario as they have indi- cated by capturing the W.O.S.S.A. championship two years straight. They also hold the title of Kent County Champs. They competed against C.C.I., C.V.S., Ridgetown, Merlin, and Blenheim and eliminated all of them to win Kent Coun- ty. The girls put on a great show of volleyball skills in London by beating their three competitors Riverside, Clinton, and Waterford by a large margin to cap- ture the championship. The girls who have played on the team the two years they won W.O.S.S.A. receive individual plaques. These girls are as follows: Mar- ion McGaffey, Nadine McGregor, Annie VanVliet, Helen Trella, Julie Vestrocy, and Madeline Punnewaert. The other girls who played on the team this year receive crests.

Well, here we go again with another sports report by your lonsome writ- er, Gone with the Wind Simpson. A volleyball tournament was held in our gym last November, with jun- ior and senior teams from six other county schools participating. It lasted most of the day. Wallaceburg didn't lose a game, and the playoffs saw Wallaceburg against C.V.S. in the senior division, while C.C.I. played off with our juniors. The seniors took C.V.S. two games straight to win the county champion- ship. The juniors had a little trouble with C.C.I., but managed to defeat them two out of three games for the championship. W.O.S.S.A. There is no junior competition in W.O.S.S.A., but the seniors went to London singing that little known refrain: We of Wallaceburg all agree, that we will go to W.O.S.S.A. 'B', and with men like Glasgow, Ayres and me, we are sure to gain Victory. The W.O.S.S.A. 'B' volleyball tournament was held in London in Decem- ber. Six schools were entered in this contest with the two top teams playing off for the championship. It was a very thrilling series of games. I ought to know, because I saw them from a good viewpoint, the bench. Yes, I warmed the bench, along with another second stringer whose name I won't mention because it's too hard to spell and would take up too much room this initials are M.P., and he's no mountie or member of parliament.

Barrie Davis. Wayne Melanson. After an absence of four seasons, the K,C.S.S.A.A. Hockey League was back in operation with four teams competing: Blenheim, Dresden, Ridgetown and Wallaceburg. The Bobcats of Blenheim finished on top at the end of the regular schedule, while our Clippers captured second position with six wins and four losses. Successfully eliminating Dresden in the semi-finals, the Clippers were matched with Blenheim for the county title. After two closely contested games, Blenheim emerged victors, winning 8-5 and 3-1, thus qualifying for further W.O.S.S.A. competition. The personnel of this year's team was composed of a few experienced players and a host of newcomers. Eldon VanSpybrook did an excellent job of guarding the twine behind his defence corps of Paul Kilbreath, Ken Kreibeck. and veterans Art Houle and Bucky Butterman. Up front, the number one line was centred by leading scorer Al Mann, who was flanked by wingmen Les Files and Jim Fish, the latter a transfer from Merici High. The remainder of the team was made up of sophomore Gord Clutch Davies, and rookies Wayne Melanson. Barrie Davies, Bill Low, Archie Kingma and Bruce McRae. Les Files and Bucky Butterman finished behind Al Mann in the scoring department with Butterman receiving the most penalties on the team. A great deal of thanks is extended to Mr. Frank Mabey for co-oper- ation at the Arena, referees Ace Routley, Bob Leach and Don Mann who lent their services, and Mrs. Frank Mann who supplied the team with gum and or- anges. Much appreciation is also rendered to our coach Mr. J.A. Schell whose fine competitive spirit has been respected by players and fans alike. All these persons helped to make the '54-55 season a successful one. -51-j- R. GIRUS BASKETBALL .... Back How - Mary Glasgow. 'Marion 'Mc'Galley. 'Margaret MacDonald. 'Mary Stevens.

WE'VE GOT A TEAM AND WE'RE 'GONNA' SHOUT IT! In spite of the fact that everyone once thought the senior girls' basketball team would be a flop, we, the senior team of '54-55 have come to the conclusion that we are a good team Knot the best, but a good teamb. We could not have come to that conclusion without the help of Efficient and Effective Elaine , our coach, who put up with us, disregarding our child- ish ways and trying to develop our grown-up skills. The senior team consists of 'Creamy' Campbell, 'Rough' Ruth, Anchor' Ayres, 'Muscles' McGaffey, 'Sim- ple' Sondra, 'Brainy' Burgess, 'Sure-shot' Stevens, and 'Muggs' McDonald, as forwards and 'Lanky' Lok, 'Limpy' Linda, 'Easy' Emma, Grabby' Glasgow and 'Hoopy' Hinnegan as guards. The above mentioned managed to play well enough together to beat Blen- heim, Ridgetown, C.V.S. and C.C.I. to win the Kent County Championship. The game that determined the Kent County Champs was played in Dresden, neutral grounds, with W'Burg and C.C.I. participating. W'Burg won by the score of 45- 26. Our next competitor was Essex whom we had to defeat in order to enter the W.O.S.S.A. playoffs. As everyone knows, they beat us 68-67 so we must con- tradict the foregoing statement and say that they are one point better than we are. We played Essex twice, with total points counting. Essex beat us when we played down there 31-35, but when they came to W'burg, we beat them 36-33 but the sum of the two games put Essex one ahead of us. The game in Wallace- burg was the best game of basketball ever witnessed in the gymnasium of WDHS with W'Burg scoring a basket and then Essex, throughout the game. Both teams agreed it was the hardest and fastest game they had ever played. It was a hard game to lose but as they say, May the better team win! and we guess it did. We shed a few tears after the game but you can hardly blame us for that. f In conclusion we want to thank all the students and teachers for suppor- ting us whether we won or lost and our coach, Miss Ough, whom we all love, for putting up with us. Incidentally, Anchor Ayres was the high scorer with 85 points, Creamy Campbell second with 83 points and Muscles McGaffey third, with 62 points. We'll be back fighting next year! JR. BASKETBALL TEAM .... The junior basketball team and their coach, Mrs. Helene Thompson de- serve a lot of credit and praise. They may not have done as well as the seniors but there is quite a bit to take into consideration, such as: it is the first time the majority of the girls have ever played on a team and in some cases the first year they have played basketball. They played a total of 8 games and won three of them. They played against Ridgetown, Blenheim, C.V.S. and C.C.I. High scorer was Gail Hunter with a total of 20 points and Yvonne DeBruyne was second with 18 points. -58.. CASE OF FRENZIED B. BALL COACH . . . The world's championship basketball game between undefeated C.C.I. and W.D.H.S. starts in less than an hour, and Wallaceburg's first line has been kidnapped. Mr. Wallace, the coach, calls in our hero, J. Edgar Heifer, detective Cprivatel to take the case. As the start of the game approaches, Wallace is getting frantic. He knows that if J. Edgar Heifer doesn't soon find his first stringers he will have to play the second line, which consists of Crooks Cooper, Sure Shot Suth- erland, Goose-on-the-Loose Labor, Easy Ed Davies and Simp the Fluke . And the coach has about as much in them as John K. Burnett has in the stu- dent council. Meanwhile, Mr. Thompson, the junior coach is viewing the proceedings from the gallery, when Bannister Bill Norman comes puffing toward him and says, Man, I'm pooped! I've been running around the gym for three hours! Well, the game's going to start right away, sir. Do you think Wallaceburg has a chance? Sure! replies Thompson. Watch and see. By this time the game is in progress and Wallaceburg heads 2-0. The Fluke fluked. That basket is all Wallaceburg needed to get under way, be- cause at half-time the second stringers head C.C.I. 43-0. Meanwhile, J.Edgar Heifer, private bull is still looking for the lost first line. Time marches on, and finally, our hero finds the lost players, who hadn't been kidnapped at all, but were in the visitor's dressing room, eating their oranges. By the time they got dressed and into the gym, there are only four min- utes left to play, and Wallaceburg leads by a score of 78-0. Wallace rushes the first line into the game and benches the second stringers. With the first line playing, the score quickly changes, and C.C.I.'s basket with three seconds of play puts them ahead 79-78. Wallaceburg calls time out. Mr. Wallace uses stfategy now, and puts in the second string again. It is Wallaceburg's ball at their end line. Goose-on-the-Loose passes it to Easy Ed , who whips it to Gooks Cooper who hands it off to Sure Shot and Sutherland lets one go! It soars up and through the basket at the other end, just as the buzzer sounds. W.D.H.S. defeats C.C.I. for the world's championship, 80-79! V Ken Simpson Qi .

Several types of defensive and offensive plays were practiced. Although the team has four players over six feet tall, control of the backboard was not always in their hands. The team's shooting was good but there was room for improvement in the long shots and particularly in the foul shots. The first game against Blenheim was a victory for W.D.H.S. at the score of 51-25. Our first defeat came at the hands of C.C.I. when a combination of fast breaks and accurate shooting gave them a 45-39 victory. W.D.H.S. won the next four games, de- feating C.V.S. 42-39, Ridgetown 41-31, Blenheim 34-27 and C.V.S. 37-29. In the next game C.C.I. whipped W.D.H.S. again with a last minute rally by a score of 34-30. The last game of the season was played in Ridgetown. This game was a very inept one and if we had won, which we didn't, we would have captured the WOSSA 'B' district championship and would have gone on to play Amhearst- burg. Since R.D.H.S. defeated W.D.H.S. 33-31 there was a tie. The tie-breaking game was played in Dresden with R.D.H.S. winning once more with a score of 29-27. Thus ended Wallaceburg's dreams of a boys' basketball title for the team. Our team consisted of G. Ayres, centre: J. Glasgow, forward, G. Hender- son, forwardg D. MacKenzie, guard, P. Ayres, guard. Substitutes-D. Daley, G. Cooper, K. Simpson, E. Davies. D. Domanski, N. Labor and our mascot, J. Lumley. JR. BOY'S BASKETBALL . . . The year 1954-55 saw a relatively successful season for the Junior Bask- etball team. The team did not win a championship but it did give a good acc- ount of itself and gained much valuable experience. Of this year's team, only one player had previous experience in inter-school basketball. Thus, the team that carried the laurels of the Wallaceburg District High School into Junior competition this year was a young and relatively inexperienced team. How- ever, time and hard work did much to compensate for the lack of experience. By the end of the season, the team was playing good sound basketball and had scored three victories- one over Chatham Vocational School, one over Bl r 1- heim and one over a powerful Ridgetown club. Next year, all but three of this year's team will be eligible for junior basketball. Thus, we are hoping that next year's team will chalk up a larger number in the win column. A year's exper- ience playing together as a team can make a lot of difference. The players of this year's Junior Basketball team are as follows: Craig Lapointe Ccaptainl, Peter Hensel Cassistant captainb, Gordon Langstaff, Bob Lewis, Gordon Webb, Bruce Hunter, Eddie Dewar, Tom McLaughlin, Terry Milner, Albert Schmidt and John Miller. -61- YJ! INTRAMURAL SPORTS .... SENIOR BOY'S VOLLEYBALL. . . The first game of the season brought the Plewes Prowlers against the Laing Lovelies. Apparently last year's champions were slow in starting because the ProWlers prowled right over them. The Dickenson Daffodils defeated the Dundas Doddle1's to help the season get under way. The Prowlers dominated the season with such combinations as Beno Ayres and Dave The Babe Domanski. The Dickenson Daffodils stayed in third place most of the season but managed to down every team at least once. The Doddlers doddled along as usual. The playoffs brought the Prowlers against the Lovelies but de- spite the Plewes' attempt to win by bringing in Mac The Track MacKenzie they lost rather poorly to the Laing squad. Soup Campbell, Big Art McFadden and Shorty Ayres starred in the playoffs for Laing. Credit must also be given to Simple Simpson and Field Marshall Prachowny. JUNIOR BOY'S VOLLEYBALL .... The junior division title also went to Laing House who played a hot game throughout the season. Ty Lapointe was the main feature of the winning Laing team. The Little Lovelies went in the playoffs with a spectacular team spir- it. Plewes and Dundas played well but didn't stand a chance. Dickenson was a total loss. Three cheers for Laing! GIRUS VOLLEYBALL .... Every noon except Friday both the P.T. room and the gym were filled with girls' voices cheering their volleyball team on to victory. The senior girls occupied the gym at 3.20 on Thursday and the juniors at 3.20 on Mon- day. There were four teams from each house, two junior and two senior The girls themselves refereed the games and there was keen competition all through the season. Plewes House senior team, headed by Lucinda Ayres came through on top after beating their close rival Dundas House by a score of 54-30. Laing House Juniors under the leadership of Dorothy Pharazyn succeeded in defeat- ing Agnes Johnson's team who was incidentally Laing also, by 40-20 to win the championship. Yea! Laing House. -62- GIRL'S BASKETBALL .... In basketball, as in volleyball, two junior teams and two senior teams represented each house. The senior games were fast and exciting while the jun- ior games were a little slower but no less exciting. The games were refereed by the girls, from the Leaders' Club. Plewes House girls captained by Lucinda Ayres won the senior championship but only after a hard battle with Helen Trella's team which represented Dundas House. It was the best two out of three games that determined the winner and Plewes managed to beat Dundas in the third and final game. In the junior division, Dickenson House team captained by Rosanna Tre- panier captured the championship after beating Louise Lee's team who inciden- tally is also Dickenson. BOY'S BASKETBALL .... The intramural basketball league in the senior circuit was dominated by Plewes House. Dickenson's number one team played a fast-breaking game but lacked the height. The fourth spot was held by the Laing five led by Gerry Ayres, Dickenson Two finished in fifth position having played a rather average schedule. Dundas Three lacked the playing ability of the other teams but did well at the end of the season. Turk VanSpybrooke led his Laing Six off to a good start but the team suffered a rather disastrous finish. Last but not least was Dundas Four who played well but with only four players. The playoffs ended up with Plewes Seven playing Plewes Eight. Plewes Seven were victorious. All who played in the league this year played their best and their hardest which resulted in one of the best leagues the school has had. TENNIS .... On October the nineteenth, a small but happy group of netmen set out for the Chatham Community tennis courts. We were entering for the second time a team in the annual Kent County Tennis Championships. Boys' singles contestants were James Hazzard, Martin Prachowny and Jim Sutherland. Little did these boys know that they were to fall prey to the late Dick Hinnegan of Chatham. Hinnegan beat our boys because he had far more exper- ience in that he had been playing for 5 or 6 years. Our tennis courts haven't even been up two years! Linda and Lucinda Ayres carried the mail for the girls' doubles but were intercepted by a cool duo from Chatham Collegiate Institute. On the whole our team played well for the amount of experience they had. Hazzard, one of the best net stars, was singles runner up while Prachowny and Sutherland were runners-up in the men's doubles. Linda and Lucinda Ayres were runners-up in the women's doubles. I know next year we will do much better after our boys and girls have taken part in some of the Western Ontario tournaments. I believe that if we could hold the next Kent County tournament here at our own courts, more would see just how difficult the game is and I am sure that we would have more contestants for next year's tournaments. -53- W. O. S. S. A. MB TRACK AND FIELD MEET Saturday, May 7th, 1955 was a memorable day in the passing of many milestones by the athletes of W.D.H.S. The school track and field stars fin- ally reached the highest pinnacle of fame by winning the W.O.S.S.A. B Track and Field championship at the University of Western Ontario. As one student said, We carried home everything but the stadium. Out of fourteen possible honours, ten were captured by Wallaceburg. Among the awards was the Warwick Trophy, symbolic of the over-all team championship for boys and girls, which was presented for the first time three years ago. This is the first time that our school has won the high hon- ours and probably the last as our classification will be A next year. The girls made a clean sweep of their groupings by winning the Junior championship with 32 points, the Intermediate with 25 points and the senior with 36 points. The senior boys won their group with an amazingly high tot- al of 86 points. The individual champions were: Junior Girls', Gay McCreery, with 16 points, Intermediate Girls'g Jean Tracey with 11 points, Senior Girls'g Marion McGaffey with 18 points and Senior Boys, Doug MacKenzie with 32 points. First place ribbons were won by- Marion McGaffey, senior girls' 75 yard dash, Jean Tracey, int. girls' 75 yard dash, Gay McCreery, junior girls' standing broad jump, Doug MacKenzie, senior boys' pole vault and running broad jump, Jim Glasgow. senior boys' hop, step and jump, senior girls' 300 yard relay and intermediate girls' 300 yard relay. Second place ribbons were won by- Peter Ayres, senior boys' pole vault, intermediate girls' basketball speed throw, Barrie Davis, senior boys' mile, Doug MacKenzie, senior boys' hop, step and jump, Darlene Bastow, jun- ior girls' 75 yard dash, Doreen Bastow, senior girls' 75 yard dash, junior girls' ,300 yard relay and junior boys' 300 yard relay. Third place ribbons were won by- Gerald Ayres, senior boys' discus throw, Marion McGaffey, senior girls' standing broad jump, Jim Sutherland, senior boys' half mile, Jim Glasgow, senior boys' 440 yard dash, Gay McCreary junior girls' 75 yard dash and senior boys' 440 yard relay. Fourth place ribbons were won by- John Miller, junior boys' pole vault, Doug MacKenzie, senior boys' high jump. Fifth place ribbons were won by- Jim Glasgow, in senior boys' high jump and broad jump. Sixth place ribbons were won by- Wayne Turner, intermediate boys' 100 yard dash and Eldon VanSpybrooke, intermediate boys' pole vault. It is fitting that the athletic prowess of the W.D.H.S. girls and boys has been recognized by not only the school staff, but also by the mayor, W.J. Collins and by the school board. This accomplishment will give the students of W.D.H.S. something to aim at for many years to come. The old adage is still one worth keeping in mind. Aim high and consider yourself capable of great things. -64- BOYS ATHLETIC SOCIETY .... Front Row - Ronald Brooksbank. Sec.-Treas.. Alan Mann. President. Mr. I.A. Schell. B.A.. lim Glasgow.

The Strathcona Shield again adorns the hall of Wallaceburg District High School. Due to the efforts of all cadets, we hold the plaque for this term. Last yea1 s inspection, which was held in brilliant sunshine, was the ultimate climax of several weeks of earnest and hard training under the watch- ful eye of Major A. Hoggarth. According to Lieut. Rankin, our marching was above par and our steadiness on parade was superb. Not to be surmounted was the excellent demonstration in signals by Mr. Stevens, Lt. J.M.R. Lee and his Bren gun crew, and Cdt.-Lt. P.R. Gervason with his precision squad. Our CO., Lt.-Col. Doug Mayna1'd took the Corps through their paces in superlative style. The salute was taken by Lt.-Col. Maclntyre of the now defunct Kent Rex:- iment. But we shall not rest on our last year's laurels. We have added sev- eral graduates of Camp Ipperwash, Borden and Banff to bolster our staff of officers and senior N.C.O.'s. This was quite evident on our Armistice day parade. This event was held on November 11th of last year. UO. Doug Mac- Kenzie laid the wreath and the band played before a huge crowd. This year's Corps slogan should be: Let's keep that Shield. - 68 - NO. 699 WALLACEBURG DISTRICT HIGH Officer in Command , , 2nd in Command ,. Adjutant R.S.M. O.C. of Girls' Companys A Company- C.O.

This year on the inspiration of Mr. Hoggarth, Mr. Lee and a few of the other busy teachers got together and improved the range. Up to this year a maximum of five cadets could fire at one time. With the new equipment eight can fire comfortably and they need not leave their firing position until the whole shoot is completed. This is made possible by an electric target retriever. Mr. Hoggarth has always wanted a Labrador Retriever but this will have to do. It is quite a little monster but very effective. To facilitate eight cadets a second level has been added to the firing ramp. This is braced securely to each wall and supported well from the base. This is quite necessary , for, if one person rolls or moves on a rickety ramp he is likely to disturb another at the point of firing and therefore spoil his target. The target retreiver looks something like eight music lyres welded to- gether on a frame in two horizontal rows of four. Under the frame is a five- wheeled dolly with a wheel at each corner and the fifth in the centre, riding on a track. When the switch is turned one way the retriever retrieves the targets to the ramp, stopping directly in front of each man. When the tar- get is changed or checked the switch is turned the other way and the retriever runs back up the track to the twenty yard mark. Pretty neat, eh? A salute to Mr. Hoggarth, Mr. Lee and associates, this will save a lot of bumped heads. LEADER'S CLUB . . W.D.H.S.'s representative at this year's Leader's Club is Al Mann, the popular grade 13 student. This club consists of boys elect- ed each year in all secondary schools of West- ern Ontario, who go to London as guests of the London Free Press and the University of Western Ontario and visit the University, studios of C.F.P.L.-T.V. and offices of the Free Press. Al has played four years of W.O.S.S.A. rugby and hockey, being on two W.O.S.S.A. hockey championship teams and the WOSSA football champions of 1952. In town sports, Al played on the provincial juvenile Hockey Champs of 1952, and the provincial Midget f' NN Lacrosse Champions of 1951. In track and -- A 1 seg-g- field, he won the junior boys' title in 1952 ALLAN MANN and was K.C.S.S.A.A. runner up in 1950 and 1952. He was president of the Art Club in 1954 and currently is president of the Boys' Athletic Society, also being a class representative in that organization for several years. Also active in cadet work, Al is a lieutenant in this year's cadet corps. Al states golf as his favourite sport and has been a member of the Bal- doon Golf and Country Club for six years. Al's academic ability, participation in such school functions as student council and school operetta H.M.S. Pinafore and willingness to help where he is needed complete the picture of an outstanding all-round student. -70- M SIC .... W. D. H. s. BAND .... Students and staff of W.D.H.S. should be proud of their band. In spite of many ups and downs. the band carried on its regular Thursday practices, ap- proximately forty minutes in duration. As in previous years, our capable di- rector, Mr. E. V. Ayres, conducted the sessions and succeeded in teaching the band many new marches and overtures. New music and new instruments have been added to the organization through the efforts of Mr. Ayres and the school board. Our greatest achievement was in the issuing of new uniforms. The uni- forms a1'e a kiltie style and have a smart military jacket gaily coloured with brown, green and gold. At the 1953-54 Cadet Inspection, the band received many congratulations from the inspecting officers and the citizens of the town. Due to Mr. Ayres' unfortunate accident, Gary Cooper took on the respon- sibility of supervising the annual march to the Cenotaph on Nov. 11th. Gary also was largely responsible for the issuing of the new uniforms. Other events such as Commencement, Athletic Night were presented with a great showing from your W.D.H.S. Kilties.

Ilead of Social Committee- Kaye Mathany. Head of Uniforms- Gary Cooper. -71- GLEE CLUB .... Music has the power to mold Character. That being so, it is an indispensable study for our young people. . . . . Aristotle. We are very sorry to report musical activities have been very limited during the 1954-1955 term. No, We have not lost interest and we are very for- tunate not to have lost our Musical Director, Mr. Von Ayres, who met with a serious accident and has been incapacitated for over two months. I spent a pleasant hour with Mr. Ayres discussing possibilities for a musical rendezvous to be held sometime in the spring. Yes, the Glee Club will be heard in the school auditorium before the end of the term. We certainly appreciate the efforts of Mr. Ayres and also the results of his work. All of us realize music is becoming a way of life and part of everyday living. It fills in leisure time and is a creative, participating recreational ac- tivity without equal. Music helps all of us spiritually, mentally and morally. Possibly we do not stop to realize that the part music plays in everyday affairs as radio, television, church and social functions, the theatre, dancing and ball- et. We take these things for granted, which we could not enjoy without the mus- ical scores. By way of encouraging musical appreciation and offering excellent en- tertainment, the Rotary Club presented the Don Wright Chorus in the school auditorium on Dec. 7. They presented their programme in three parts and cov- ered a wide variety . Some of the most popular of the 22 numbers presented were: Come to the fair , You'll never walk alone , Lullaby, by Brahms , Bless this House , Sylvia , I Believe , and Louisiana Hayride . -72- PUBLIC SPEAKING TEAM .... Henk Hart. Tom Fox, Iune Gonyou, Marie Huige. ORATORICAL CONTEST .... The winner of the Senior Oratorical Contest was Henk Hart, whose top- ic was the Futility of War .

Other speakers were- Mary Stevens whose subject was Einstein , Jack Burgess who spoke on The Futil- ity of War , Tom Brunt who chose as his subject Sir Winston Churchill , and John Burnett who spoke on Juvenile Delinquency . The first place speakers among the girls and boys went on to the Kent County finals. Henk Hart came home with the Rotary Club Trophy for win- ning the K.C.S.S.A. Oratorical Competition. He placed second in the semi-final W.O.S.S.A. competition at Essex. DRAMATIC CLUB .... The 1954-1955 Dramatic Club got under way in September with Mr. Ball, and Mrs. Heslip as directors. Jack Burgess and Janice Peterson held the offices of president and secretary. In November, a dance was sponsored by our Club which turned out to be one of the social events of the season. This year the club Cno longer a pioneer in W.D.H.S.l made tremendous strides. Again a three act comedy was produced. This year's project was That Brewster Boy which proved most successful, also While the Toast Burned, a one-act comedy performed at Open House, completed the year's activities. With the money from the play we hope to buy various types of equipment for other clubs in the school as well as make-up, and permanent lights at the back of the stage, for our own department. Next year when the Drama Club begins, we hope to have more members-- not only actors but people who are interested in all phases of acting, such as production, props, and scenery, to mention only a few. -73- OCIAL EVENT .... KENT COUNTY FIELD MEET DANCE .... This year C.V.S. sponsored the dance which was held in Chatham in the Kinsmen Auditorium after the field meet. The music was supplied by the Chat- eau Gai Orchestra. The highlight of the evening was a mass bunnyhop, led by all the cheerleaders, which proved to be very successful. Students from all over Kent County attended. CRYSTAL BALL .... The fourth annual Crystal Ball was held in Chatham in the Kinsmen Memorial Auditorium on December 30, 1954. The main event of the evening was the crowning of the queen. Each contestant was an individual winner of her school and the judging proved quite difficult. However pretty Catherine Roth of St. Joseph's Hospital came up with top honours. Dancing was enjoyed at this festive event with the Chateau Gai Orchestra. ANNUAL PROM .... The Wallaceburg Annual Prom was held on Friday March 19, 1954, and was said to be the best formal ever. The girls all looked lovely in their billowy formals and the boys looked handsome in their dark suits. Bobbie Down's Or- chestra of London provided music, and it was really terrific! We were very grateful to Mr. and Mrs. Bert Crothers for assisting us in so many ways- - - es- pecially for the beautiful palm tree, and South Sea Island centre piece, which added so much to the decor of our gymnasium. Entertainment at intermission consisted of a drummer from the above orchestra who really made our halls of ivy rock. DRAMATIC CLUB F BOLIC .... On November 19th, an extremely large crowd attended, considering the fact that it was the Friday night before Christmas examinations. Our gym- nasium looked very stunning in black and white. The audience was given a preview of the Lesterace Hour which was enjoyed by one and all. That cele- brated pianist was played by Leslie Files. Jack Burgess was M.C. John Bur- nett was announcer, and Sandra Lacey and Forbes McClellan took part in the commercial. It couldn't be that B.H., R.M., P.A. and D.F. mixed up the pro- gramme, could it? Other performers were the McChoir Sisters , CHelen Rub- lik, Janet McDonald and Muriel Jamesb plus the Four Italians , an operatic quartette who were Janice Peterson, Deane Whitteker, Bruce McCrae and Dick Hart. MISTLETOE BALL .... The Mistletoe Ball was one of the biggest events of the season, spon- sored by the student council. The gym looked very Christmassy in red, white and green with sprigs of mistletoe hanging in the most obvious places. Lovely Janice Poissant was crowned queen and was W.D.H.S.'s entry in the Crystal Ball. Her attendants were Mary Stevens, Deane Whitteker, Valerie Dough- rety and Janice Peterson.

Glee Club and assisting artists Cnotice the phraseb. So what? Maybe we did have to import some extras. Anyway we did pull off a rip-roaring two night success that more than a thousand victims of spontaneous hilarity witnessed. Results? Mostly aching sides for the audience and just plain aches for the actors who underwent a continuous rigamarole of rehearsing and rehash- ing, day after day, week after week until the fatal and final nights. Practice, practice, practice! Drill, drill, drill! That was the motto of the Glee Club when they were preparing the play. The final night when everyone was getting ready for the curtain will be a moment I will never forget. The overture was being played- - - the curtain went up and we were on our way. Much of the side-splitting may be attributed to Bill and Henk Hart as pirates and Mr. Ball who played the police chief. Mr. A. Schell went through with flying colours as the pirate king. I'm sure everyone enjoyed the singing of Marion Shaw who rocked the rafters when she hit high HE . Another person well on the way to professional music was Allan McPhail, one of the imports for the evening. Don Daley very excellently played the part of the major-general. A cast of about fifty boys and girls made up the pirates and wards of the major-general. The auditorium was packed for both nights and I'm sure everyone enjoy- ed himself. However, the production of The Pirates of Penzance would not have been possible without the wonderful Mr.E. V. Ayres and Miss M. Ster- ling Cnow Mrs. Wm. HildebrandD. These two wonderful people slaved mighty hard to see the operetta through with flying colours. -84 - NOTE OF THANKS . . I wish to take this oppurtunity to thank all those who had a hand in the production of this year book. To Mr. Garrod, Miss Quigley and Mr. Weir I ex- tend my sincerest thanks for their co-operation and advice so cheerfully given.
