Principal 4 7a :de Szmwu af Zdeazdaza- I Welcome this opportunity to greet you in this your annual publica- tion - The Westdale Raconteur. There is nothing that gives me a greater thrill than watching the hundreds of Westdale students on their Way to school - piling in and out of the doorways, in your Auditorium Where I have had the pleasure of greeting you and been fascinated with all the varied colour, and the vibrant life which seems to radiate from you when you meet in large groups. It is a long time since the turn of the century when I attended the four-roomed High School at Petrolia. It was a simple curriculum then, our facilities were limited and incidentally, Latin was compulsory. How- ever, I am not one of those who complain about being born too soon, or would like to live my life all over again, but I do envy you the wonderful opportunities you have and always am hoping, at least, that you are taking full advantage of them. There never was a time in the history of this City, indeed in Canada, when there were such opportunities for smart, alert and accomplished young men and Women. The challenge is facing you all the time. We, as a City through the Board of Education, are providing you with all the tools to assist you in taking up your life work. We can go so far +the rest is up to you. These are the happiest years of your lives and I do Wish these happy and profitable years to continue at school and when you go out to take your place in the life of our City and our wonderful country.

Principal. 6 Principal 's Message This edition of Le Raconteur is the fifteenth in which I, as principal, have been asked to contribute a brief fore- word. When thinking of what to write I am faced with the perennial problem, that the mirror of the pages to follow and the reputation of Westdale leave nothing for me to do except to commend the stahl and the students for the ex- cellence of their many and varied achievements. Should I be asked to define in one word the sum of characteristics worthy of a Westdale student I would say loyaltyg called by John Ruskin the noblest word in the catalogue of social virtue . I particularly welcome the opportunity to congratulate the editor and stay? on the form and content of this maga- zine. As the years pass and memories dim it will help to conjure up the days lived at Westdale. 7 ?74aae fackaan 57- 7575 351 Main St. E.

With such a capable staff of assistants, my duties have been light. To all who have helped make this publication a reality we ex- tend our appreciation. No project of such magnitude could be completed without the direction and supervision of some capable per- son with the interest and ability to watch over us. Mr. McCord has served us in this capacity and his contributions of leadership to us have been numerous and most appreciated. On the pages of our magazine we have pic- tures of those members of our student body who hope to graduate this year. It is our hope that they will be rewarded, not only by the successful attainment of their goal of gradu- ation, but also in whatever field of endeavour lies beyond their stay at this school. To re- ceive, they will contribute much and thus will be, we hope, valued members of -the society and community in which they choose to iden- tify themselves. We think that our years at Westdale have given us good training for the years ahead, not just in enabling us to pass the required examinations but also in matur- ing us to the point where we learn to perform our duties and responsibilities as members of a democratic society. Our training in com- munity living has been enhanced by our par- ticipation in sports and in our classes, by our association with our teachers and by activity in such co-operation groups as the Triune Council, magazine staff and many others in the school organization. Thanks to all and happy reading in Le Ra- conteur '60 ! Barbara Bell. SHOULD STUDENTS HAVE MORE CONTROL OVER THEIR EDUCATION? Have you perceived in your education the number of decisions made on your behalf by people whom you have probably never seen? For example, when you entered Westdale you were placed in a certain class and began your study in Various pre-determined fields of learn- ing. Even in Grade 13 you are regimented by university entrance requirements. Suppose you were able to decide more for yourself. There are, of course, two sides to this question. Let us consider each briefly. !f! f , ' awwagwa ffWZ7 Q -W .W 'c f 6 , f naffw74Wf . 2 fiiiiln ' eaf idajf X! if A X 39 f g 9, 2 J --na Vwf4'1'44'r WJ:.f-,.f' , f .fufzef M' 11 4 ' ' BARBARA BELL Eclitor-in-Chief :-1z.sf: :-tea we ' ,- if-f rw: f::?affwxzsa fc 'i4'59ZSf::Mz.3 M-.a.!'3Q!s--1' .

SHEPHERD BILL KAY Assistant Editor Assistant Editor Almost every student takes subjects which may prove to be of little value in his later life. If he could skip these and concentrate upon those most useful to him, would he not have a greater knowledge of the useful sub- jects? Then, too, the student would gain ex- perience in making decisions for himself, thus lessening the post-school shock of real life. On the other hand, a student may change his ideas about his future occupation. Early specialization would complicate this problem. Do you know now for certain what you would like to be? Then there are many who believe that a broadly educated person is much more valuable to society and himself than the spe- cialist with only a highly developed, narrow realm of knowledge. And imagine the con- fusion in the education system. With the ever- increasing num.ber of students, each making his own decisions as to courses of study and timetables, the situation would quickly become chao-tic. What do you think about having more con- trol over your own personal education? Bill Kay. REMOTE REWARD So often we regard our school-life as drudg- ery and our classes boring and sometimes use- less. But if we reflect for a few moments on what we have received and will receive from our school, our attitude may change. When we first entered Westdale, we were faced with something entirely new and dif- ferent. The school itself was large and fright- ening, the students numerous and strange, the teachers wary in eye but sympathetic to our needs. However, as the days, weeks and years go by, we begin to realize that school-life of- fers more than just academic education, but also athletic and social education. We begin to become part of the school and not just an outsider looking in. With the end of the year comes a feeling of satisfaction of a job usually well done. However, some skeptics still question the value of some phases of school. They con- sider them to be a waste of time. At this point we must realize that, throughout our life, we will be constantly reaping their rewards, re- mote as they now seem.

From the Business Manager r JOHN DUBBELDAM l G G Choi'rm.an, Publications PUBLICATIONS REPORT Here is your Le Racon'teur for 1960, As you leaf through your Le Raconteuru, I would like you to remember that this magazine is expensive to produce but also that it is a permanent record of your school year at West- dale. Imagine this! For every article, pic- ture, cartoon and advertisem.ent, somebody had to work on his own time. On behalf of your Publications Committee, I would like to thank the editors, Barbara Bell, Margaret Sheppard and Bill Kay. This 12G1 association, along with the other editors, start- ed with nothing but ingenuity and ended up with this, your magazine. But let's not forget Westdale's unsung heroes, our teachers, for without their assistance there would be no school, no homework, no school activities and no soft seats to sit on for those of us who come to school to rest. The students in the Commercial Training office, under the direc- tion of Miss Smith, should get more than a hard glance from passing students. They spent many hours typing out the copy for this maga- zine. The Warrior staff should get more than a grunt when the newspaper comes out. They also have a big job to do. We hope you enjoy your 1960 Le Raconteur! JOHN DUBBELDAM, Chairman of Publications.

The students elected to hold office in this council will, therefore, be responsible for the whole programme of extra-curricular activities of -the School for the year. In the Triune Student Council are five com- mittees: Finance and Property Committee, Sports and Games Committee, Drama and Music Committee, Dance and Entertainment Committee, and Publications Committee. Nominations must be signed by five students CGrades X to XIIIJ and the candidate himself. The nominations are then submitted to Mr. Linton, chief adviser. There will be the fol- lowing offices: 1. President-nominated from Grades 12 or 13. 2. Vice-Pres.-nominated from 11, 12 or 13. 3. Chairmen Cfourl-nominated from 11, 12 or 13, to preside over- 1-Sports and Games Committee. 2-Drama and Music Committee. 3-Dance and Entertainment Committee. 4-Publications Committee. 4. Councillors-nominaited from 10, 11, 12, 13. There is one councillor for each 100 students or number thereof greater than one-half from each section of the School CCollegiate, Commercial, Technicall. The elections then take place. Ballots are distributed for this purpose and the actual voting is done in the home rooms, supervised by the home room teachers. PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE, 1960 The final Grade 13 examinations test the graduates on almost all the academic knowl- edge that they have acquired 'since Grade 9. The results of these examinations are due rewards for the amount of time and effort that the student has put forth in the classroom and in doing his homework. While recognizing the importance of aca- demic work, we should not neglect the value of the clubs, athletic and cadet activities that are available to the Westdale student. These, too, play a vital role in building character Cnot a characterj. I owe much to such extracurricular activities as basketball, football and cadets. During my first years at Westdale, participation in such activities introduced me to new friends and helped to give me the self-confidence Cnot con- ceit, thoughj that every students needs. In the same Way, I came to feel that I belonged to Westdale. This sense of belonging reached its climax Cso I thought thenl this year when you elected me school president. But it did not end there. As this school year swiftly went by, your strong support of Triune activities such as football rallies, dances, and the Campaign for Kim made all the Triune members prouder than ever that we belonged to Westdale . Even yet the true climax has not been reached. It will come, I expect, at the official graduation ceremony. For, strange though it may seem., it is only when we leave Westdale that we will fully appreciate the time and ef- fort required of us in the preceding five years. It is then that we will truly belong to West- dale . To all of my teachers, whether the topic was basketball, Triune administration or French, I am deeply grateful for their guidance and help. Congratulations along with my personal thanks are in order for the members of the Triune Council. They have worked hard and done their jobs well. Westdale is proud of them, and I am honoured to have served as their chairman. May future Triune presidents receive as much support and co-operation from their councils as I have had this year from mine. In closing, I should like to pass on a gentle reminder to the younger students: Beware of the temptation to let extracurricular activities overshadow your academic work. You owe it to yourself, your family and your school to achieve your primary purpose here, and that is to pass, preferably with good marks. Once your school work is under control, you may then enjoy, wi-th a clear conscience, the other side of school life. School work first! Keep this simple rule and your stay at Westdale will be a pleasant and successful one. Thank you. Terry Wilson. PATON' N!EN'S SHOP Arrow Shirts Jantzen Sportswear 64 KING STREET EAST Hamilton, Ont. Valedictory Address VIRGINIA STANNERS, Valedictlorian. It is my proud duty tonight to speak to you as representative of the graduating students. It has been said that there is only one thing that a student Wants out of school and that is himself. We have attained that Utopia. For the past five years we have worked with vary- ing degrees of enthusiasm towards this night of happy triumph, the culmination of 'years of effort, much happiness and a few moods of black despair. In this time we have learned much, and yet I feel that our predominant emotion tonight -should be humility rather than pride, for we stand on the threshold of life, raw and inexperienced, the years ahead filled with the excitement and challenge of the un- known. To-night marks an important milestone for us, a point at which we must pause, take stock and evaluate ourselves. What have we learned in our years at Westdale to fit us to be citizens of the world today? We have acquired a basically sound educa- tion, absorbing in the process endless facts and theorems. I hope we have done more than this. I hope we have learned to apply our minds to that one great essential, the ability to think clearly and well, and moreover, to think for ourselves. The great modern art of getting along with our fellows has not been neglected. Our par- ticipation in, the extra-curricular activities offered by Westdale, be it in the field of sports, drama, literature, or student government, has taught us adaptability, tolerance, and the ability to respect another's point of view. I hope it has done more than this. I hope we have acquired the courage to disagree and to challenge when values we hold dear are at stake, for there is no place in the world of to- day for timid acquiescence. It has been said of modern young people that we are a group of contented conformists, concerned only with our creature comforts and the acquisition of an adequate number of dol- lars. I do not believe this. There are still those among us who are prepared to plan and struggle for a better world, a world in which truth, fir.-edom within the bounds of sane discipline, and respect for human dignity will thrive, and where men may live in true har- mony with each other. Many of toni-ght's graduates have already become small cogs in the 'big wheels of Can- adian business and industry. However small a part they may play as yet in the success of these enterprises, they can at least console themselves with the thought that with proper application of the training and education re- ceived here at Westdale, they can work with confidence and enthusiasm towards the time when they will play a very significant role in the shaping of the successful future of this country. For those of us who are continuing our studies at university, this passage from one of Samuel Johnson's essays should prove much food for thought: To talk in public, to think in private, to read and to hear, to inquire and answer inquiries, is the business of a scholar. He wanders about the world without pomp or terror, and is neither known nor valued but by men like himself. No valedictory address would be complete without a voiced appreciation of those dedi- cated people who have helped us so much through the years. They are that specially gifted group of people who are not merely capable of absorbing knowledge, but have the power to impart it to others, to kindle the spark of special ability, and to stimulate the flagging interest of their students. In ancient times teachers were the most honoured and respected of people. Love is a word seldom used today except in the Hollywood sense. To- night I would like to revive it. We will re- member the teachers of Westdale with love and gratitude for the rest of our lives. To our parents I would say - tonight really belongs to you. You have kept the star of the future bright for us, have encouraged, helped and occasionally prodded us along the long road to graduation. More important than this, you have believed in us. Whatever pride and satisfaction you may feel in us tonight, you have well earned, and we offer it to you with humble appreciation. A very important phase of our lives has ended tonight. Wherever the road of life may lead us, I hope we will never reach that point of mental stagnation when We feel we have nothing more to learn. May all our endings mark new beginnings, enriched by the past and illumined with hope for the future. And now, Colonel McQueen, in accordance with Westdale tradition, it gives me much pleasure to present to you this picture on be- half of the graduating class of 1959. We hope that when it hangs with the pictures presented by former graduates, your happy memories of us will be intensified, and any less fortunate ones mellowed by its charm. - Summa Cum Laude 1959 HI SUMMA CUM LAUDE ADFUERUNT These graduated with the highest distinction Carved in gold letters on the marble Wain- scoting of the main entrance to the school, are the names of Westdale's distinguished gradu- ates. Each one has fulfilled the stiff requirements. A student must complete the final year of his course with an average of 81 per cent or bet- ter. Academic achievement is the sole criterion except in the case of the three general profi- ciency Winners. In their case extra-curricular activities are also taken into account. Westdale is proud of the 215, of whom it may fittingly be said that, from our halls they departed trailing clouds of glory .

No product is more basic than steel, and hence no product has contributed more to Canada's progress and wealth than has Canadian steel. Stelco's record of expansion is a demonstration of the Company's faith in Canada. Its achievements in war and peace have not been excelled by any Canadian company. In the past 50 years the Canadian population has grown from a little more than 7,000,000 to better than l7,000,000, While the number of Stelco employees has, in the same period of time, grown from 5,000 to almost 15,000 As Canada grows, so does Stelco.

Literary THE FIRST DAY AT SCHOOL Good morning, fellow jailbirds. I am going to attempt to tell you something about us shameful grade niners and our disgustingly good behaviour at Westdale. The first agoniz- ing day at this Alcatraz , the old pros are astonished by the numbers of obedient fresh- men m.arching down the corridors in honest silence and co-operation, Everywhere, through- out the endless halls, you discover a poor, lone survivor, lost in the confusion and turmoil of first day in school . A few dismayed stu- dents, in a genuine but hopeless attempt to find their classrooms, wander into the locker rooms of the opposite sex, only to be greeted by shrieks and screams of terror, a severe penalty for being a straggler. At last, however, good fortune Cin the form of an older student, or teacherj, guides you to your classroom, and you meet your prim and proper teacher. A haggard, total wreck, you stagger to your seat, and collapse in sheer exhaustion. You don't realize, however Cuntil it is too latej, that the kindness and sincerity which you have been shown this day is only a false cover. The down-to-earth Westdale life and spirit breaks out in a little less than 18 hours! Look out! June Happerle. ODE TO A KLEENEX Oh, thou fragile little thing Whose ultimate purpose is to disturb The tranquility of the peaceful Day And then to drop, Overflowing And unnoticed Among a pile of other such soggy treasures. Brian Shein. THE WORLD IS WASHED Nothing stirred, not even a leaf, and one's soul could feel the suspense hanging in the air. No birds were singing, not a tree top quivered. It was too exciting to express. The huge clouds in the distance sent out a dark warning while the rumbling of the approach- ing thunder could be heard. The storm swept forward steadily. A little girl cowered in a corner as the first bolts of lightning flashed across the sky and the pelting rain began to whip the trees to the ground. The thunder no longer grumbled in its -throat, but now let go with all its fury. The storm was soon a raging hurricane, tear- ing down anything in its Way. Shrieking winds tore away trees and houses and tossed them over its shoulder. The storm had gone wild and could not control its passion for destruc- tion. As it became weary, the wreckage could be seen filling the streets and fields. Moaning and pitiful wails rent the village as the dwell- ers surveyed their situation. A woman cried softly and a young man cried for his lost love. Homes were gone, and the village was no longer there. Yet, as the storm passed, one could see the miracle and could not help but become awed with the wonder of so great a thing as this. This destroyer was no earthly, man-made thing, but it was sent by One greater than any earthly mortal, One whose judgement may not be questioned. Look, the countryside now glows with a new freshness of a Washing sent from God. The air has a sweet fragrance and the atmosphere is soft and again peaceful. New homes are established and a new under- standing is 'brought about by the experience. God has washed His world! Nancy Bekkering, 9 :3 :5. HOW TO BATH YOUR DELINQUENT When the fatal time has arrived, sit down and carefully plan your attack. From experi- ence, I can tell you that it is best to catch the little monster by surprise and not give him a chance to get away. You usually spot him near his favourite hideout which, in his case, is under my double bed. As you slowly ap- proach him with a horrible, fixed grin, he almost always realizes his intended fate, for the little monkey disappears under the bed. Dropping to your knees you'll look under and glare at him while he sits triumphantly in the far corner. You can be sure he will never come out on his own, but if you bribe him with some kind of candy bar you can catch him in the open a few minutes later. You have won round one. Once you have captured your prey, lead him into the bathroom and order him to undress while you go into the kitchen and collect the necessary articles, which usually include a toy submarine, a space gun, a sea pony, a wash cloth and a bar of soap. When you return to the bathroom, Junior will be sitting in the tub in his swimming suit, ready for the com.ing struggle. Before starting, run over your plan of attack and then begin. As usual, your main weapon is a bar of soap with which you are supposed to clean all the tiny crevices filled with grimy dirt. To add to your problems, Junior won't sit still, and with submarine bullets and space gun rays flying around you, you'll soon begin to feel quite uncomfortable. By this time, Junior will be having a field day, blowing up imag- inary warships, killing invading Martian men and riding his sea pony While you are trying to clean his right ear. Much to your surprise, you usually pull something like a worm out of his ear or a pet centipede out of his hair, but as you become a pro at this tedious job you soon become accustom.ed to these minor things. Finally, Junior will once again appear clean enough to be set free. In most cases, the poor parent is so exhausted after he has washed his baby he can hardly keep his eyes open while he towels his child. Without any doubt, you will feel the same way after you bath your baby? After you have set Junior loose again, cleaned up the mess and lay down to rest, you usually realize you have made one or two hor- rible mistakes: instead of putting baby powder on Junior, you poured Dutch cleanser on him, the baby wasn't Junior! It was his boy friend who was visiting him for a day. This is a typical -bath the average Canadian child receives today. Follow this simple bath- ing routine - you'll have a happy, healthy baby. Jim Turnbull, 9:3:9. THE LONG WAY HOME One night after a long and dismal card game, Pete Malone headed for home. Because he had lost heavily, Pete was in no mood to face his wife. He chose a long route for his homeward journey which led through the ceme- tery and a small wood. As he approached the cemetery, his mind fogged with drink, Pete imagined a faint form in the mist ahead of him. Was it his imagin- ation? When Pete saw nothing more of it he proceeded through the cemetery, past the century-old grave of a southern soldier. At this moment he distinctly saw a form standing in the shadow of a large headstone. It Van- ished at once. Panic-stricken, Pete ran, stumbling, through the cemetery and into the small wood. He felt safer now. Peter looked back as he walked around a tall tree. When he looked ahead again, he saw the figure of a man wearing an old shroud which people were once buried in. Pete turned and ran, but the figure behind him. gained quickly. The next morning a neighbour dropped in on Mrs. Malone. She told her of a frightening incident when she was driving past the cemetery on her way home. It was late at night when she heard a terrifying scream coming from the direction of the small Wood beyond the cemetery! It stopped suddenly and she thought no more of it. Mrs. Malone wasn't listening, she was Won- dering: why her husband had not yet returned homo from last night's card game. Bill Scott. pei ETERNITY It is dark out now, and cold. Outside the window, the grey fog rises in masses, swirl- ing, twisting and turning. Its dark filaments float and then twirl through the empty branches of the wind-blown trees as though caught in a whirlpool. Through the mist comes the sound of a bell tolling the hour wearily, as though the fog is Weighing it down and increasing the strain of its eternal task. The mist grows thicker and thicker. It seems to envelope me. The bell - now it is the foghorn out in the bay - is moaning with loneliness. Gulls have come to rest on the edge of the dock. The water slaps against the slow-rotting wood, rhythmically, in a sleepy dream-action. There is stillness and peace. Peace, save for the foghorn, blindly groaning and groping in dis- tress. Will no one comfort it? There is only the cold water, the mist and the dull grey sky. It will always cry .... The foghorn fades into the distance. It is replaced by the chiming of church bells. Hap- py, happy bells that are the golden voices of man-made angels! It is Christmas, Easter, wedding, time for rejoicing. They proclaim to the world, happiness - peace and happiness! Nothing to fear! Everything to live for! The people coming forth from the building sing with joy. Hope shines in every face. They are so gay .... The fog shifts slightly, and they are gone. And in their place? A street scene - tall, ugly buildings, reaching out with their stiff concrete fingers to strangle the light of day. A horde of people shuffle and curse as 'they move about their petty jobs. Rushing, screech- ing traffic - rushing, rushing - rends the quiet of the day. What is the hurry? Whither do they rush? They are enslaved by them- selves. They have lost a purpose and merely live out their lives in a prison of steel, driving each other. 'They are almost lonely, but they cannot admit - that they are lonely or happy or sad. They have lost all purpose, and run around in circles, waiting for death. The bell - always tolling the hour, marking the departure of time - where? Gone and lost. The people are lost, happy or sad, good or bad. All are lost in the past. We have no use for them because we have no use for the past. It is dead, and the future and the pres- ent are ever becoming the past. Everything must go, all will depart. What is left I The bell - forever declaring in gloomy tone. the fact we have left all be- hind us in eterniv. It is but a reminder that I, too, will soon be 'fone and forgotten. Brian Shein, 9:3:8. MAKING A SPEECH IS NOT EASY Making a speech is a difficult process and involves many things. After being called upon to speak, you walk to the microphone and clear your throat, awakening all who were about to go to sleep. Nervously you take a last glance at your notes, hoping it is the right speech. Then with much more confidence you give an assuring smile. As the speech is started you begin to feel the audience responding even though they re- main still, and, as you are nearing the end, you give yourself a silent congratulation, knowing you kept your audience's attention. At the end, with a sigh of relief, you answer your family's questions. You hope the ques- tions won't be any harder the night of the assembly. Heather Leibow, 9:5328 TORNADO The dull, greyish clouds were becoming darker and frighteningly large. Rain began to beat unmercifully upon the small village nestled in the valley. Roaring around the flimsy houses, the wind lashed cruelly. The threatening sky had turned an inky black. A peculiar rumbling from the west heralded the approach of something even more terrifying. There appeared a black, funnel-shaped cloud reaching menacingly down to the earth. With- in minutes the funnel passed over the village, leaving behind it incredible disaster. Build- ings that had once stood strong and erect were now nothing more than a pile of wreckage. The life work of many people had been ruined completely in a few minutes. This was the work of a tornado. Linda Dunkin, 92324. A MAN, A DREAM, A GRAVE There is a grave on the top of a hill - a small, unadorned grave with no epitaph. Be- neath the stone lies a man that was, in his lifetime, a beggar and a midget. Yet like so many other men, he was consumed by a passion many times larger than his size, and like so many other men, his passion never material- ized into anything but the dirt in which he now lies. Passers-by would see him sitting on the street begging, and sometimes would drop a few pennies into his cup, and sometimes would walk by with nothing more than a look of pity on their faces, pity for this man. And, of course, there were days when nobody would walk by, and the little cup would remain emp- ty. It was on these days that he would pull out of his pocket a book, torn and old, and read it. These stories of the Arabian Nights were his most prized possessions. He would depart from the world of reality, his world of poverty and ugliness, when reading the stories of wealth and romance and beauty in his book, and live in a paradise until it was dark out and he had to go home. One day as he sat begging, a beautiful wom- an passed by him - beautiful and rich. She belonged to a class of people he, in his poverty, could never join. He recognized in her the final goal of his dream, his dream of lifting himself from the destitution in which he now lived, and placing himself in the wealth and luxury she possessed. She was, to him, the princess in his book: and now he was no longer an ugly little pauper but a handsome prince who would inevitably marry the princess. So, a thought born in the imagination of a man desperate to escape reality, turned into an obsession which meant life and death to him. A poverty-stricken beggar marrying a woman he hadn't even spoken to - ridiculous! Yet the fantasies and far-fetched dreams of his imagination were his only possessions, and his sense of reality was not only stifled but ob- literated by these much, much sweeter illu- sions. So as each day passed, his determination to marry this woman increased. He devised ideas of how he would go about achieving his dream. He could not go into such a high class house as hers without a tuxedo, he must get one! He would have to buy a bouquet of flowers for herg he must get that. Then, with his tuxedo on, his flowers in his arms, he would enter her house and announce that he was go- ing to marry her. His only problem now was to buy the tuxedo and the flowers. So he col- lected all the pennies and nickels he had ever saved and with them bought these things. Now he was ready to go to the lady's house. He knocked on her door and was admitted. The next day the passers-by did not notice that small man with a cup was no longer on the streets begging. There is a grave on the top of a hill - a small, unadorned grave with no epitaph. Be- neath the stone lies a man who had hidden from reality only to have it thrust in his face, a man who found it too great a burden to bear, a man who killed himself. Stephen Snider, 92328. TERROR IN DISGUISE There I stood, teetering on a small ledge, high above the canyon. Terror swept through my body as I realized my predicament. To reach the top of the cliff and safety, I would have to crawl past a cave which was set into the cliff. Just as I began to inch my way along the ledge towards safety, there was a shattering roar from inside the cave. Shaking with fear, I crept towards the mouth of the cave. On reaching it, I mustered all my cour- age and peered around the jagged edge. I shrank in terror, for there before my eyes was a lion! He had seen me, and rose onto his feet with another bellowing roar. He crouched, he sprangg his huge, monstruous claws were bearing down upon me! Suddenly, I heard a piercing ringing, and my eyes flut- tered open. Ins-tead of a lion, there was my dog anxiously looking at me, and my alarm clock was ringing insistently. Linda Dunkin, 9:3:4. A SURPRISE It is the generally accepted idea that freckles are caused by a pigment in the skin. I am, however, convinced that I am a new page in medical history since my freckles, as you will see, were caused in quite a surprising Way. During my early childhood I acquired a very obnoxious habit. I would stamp, kick and scream for a certain food the rest of the family were having and, once it was in my possession, I would muck it all up and leave it 'to be de- graded to garbage. This was quite an annoy- ance to my dearly beloved parents until one day my father flipped his lid . I had had my supper and wanted a piece of pumpkin pie, which I disliked immensely. I went into my usual tantrum, for which I could easily have won an academy -award for dra- matics. Suddenly, father, white with frustration and anger, turned and, in an unusually calm voice, said between clenched teeth: Do you want the pie, dear? I stopped screaming a mo- ment to nod the necessary approval and then went on with my act. Then he picked up the pie, aimed carefully, and sploo-o-sh! It landed full in my face. There I sat, drenched in pumpkin, which suited my colour scheme. Two bleary eyes were all that peeked through that pumpkin beauty pack. My sister and brother sc1'eamed, my mother fainted, and I . . . well, I had freckles. This was one of the biggest surprises to both the rest of the family and myselfg for now my unusually clear complexion was dotted for life with pumpkin, Karla Bryer, 9:3:5. DESERTED VILLAGE The rutted path wound through the fields, devoid of green, of life, and of all that con- tributes to life. Birds were absent from the sky. The path ended abruptly amidst a heap of charred ruins, the ruins of what had once been a village. Silence reigned - the silence of the grave. Rubble heaps were strewn across the ground. The houses had rotted and crum- bled. Now, all that remained of them were the stark, grey walls, looming jaggedly against the horizon. It is many years since the 'build- ings were emptied of their occupants - once living people. The women's screams and the children's cries have long since died away. Their bodies have rotted and now nothing re- mains but the silent buildings. This happened many years ago. We have forgotten the people's helpless cries. But we have not forgotten the murderers. We remember those who unjustly killed in the name of tru-th. They are called brave, heroic and glorious. We say they gave their lives to save us. True, but we forget they took lives - the lives of those who did not have to die. For these killers, We have erected shrines. All that remains of their vic- tims are the naked walls pointing their ghostly fingers towards the heavens. Brian Shein, 92318. ' WAR War is a messy thing: In it no time to dance or sing, For men will die, and women cry, And blood be spilt o'er everything. The land is marked by courage and guts, And once beloved domestic hutsg We feel the filth in our fox-holes, It reaches to our very souls. And ere we've finished with the fight, We'll know not day, yet know not nightg Yes, each will wonder if He above Is watching over us, with love. But suddenly - the noise has stopped: Our eyes rest on the fields so bare: Then each one falls right to the ground To offer God a silent prayer. 'Warren Cooper, 9:3:10. 1 THE REWARDING DECEPTION The sleeping pills had done their Work. As Bobby Barret fell into oblivious slumber, the doctor left the room. He walked solemnly down the silent hall and into his office, where the boy's parents waited anxiously. Although Dr. Taylor knew Bobby had contracted a fatal disease, he avoided the subject and told the Barrets that nothing could be determined in such a short time. After they had departed, Dr. Taylor relaxed in his easy chair and picked up the book on Indian medicine he had been reading earlier. The story of the many people who had been cured of various deadly diseases by encourag- ing lies on the part of witch doctors amazed him. The witch doctors had a way of convinc- ing their patients to recover, without the aid of medicines. By the use of encouragement, and a few illusions, they could give their pa- tients the will to live and the strength to fight off their illness. The doctor lifted his eyes from the book and immediately thought of Bobby. He wondered if it was possible to give the boy the strength he needed to fight for his life by using the strategy of the Hindu doctors. Dr. Taylor decided to try it, since Bobby was now beyond any real medical help. Morning saw the start of Operation Witch Doctor . When Bobby's parents arrived, the doctor told them to go to the nearest depart- ment store and buy a baseball and a catcher's mitt. An hour later, they met Dr. Taylor out- side Bobby's door. Then, with forced smiles on their faces, they all entered the boy's room together. At the sight of the gifts, Bobby looked almost cheerful but was too weak to move or speak. Dr. Taylor explained that they expected him to recover so quickly that they bought him some equipment for the coming baseball season. Bobby's parents then told him of the trip they were planning to take him on over the Easter vacation. They said his health was improving and he would be coming home soon. After a half hour, Dr. Taylor decided that they had visited long enough and so, with a cheerful good-bye, they left. Bobby fell asleep happily for the first time during his illness. In the days that followed, the Barrets and Dr. Taylor visited Bobby regularly. They never failed to bring cheerfulness and encourage- ment with them. By the end of the month, Bobby had shown a definite improvement in his health, and was determined to recover. Soon he was walking again, and one bright morning his parents came to take him home. As Doctor Taylor watched the reunited fam- ily leave the hospital, he was filled with won- der. A lie had saved a 'boys' life! Arlene Gould, 93:10. THE ODDITY OF IT Each stone on it has a meaning and each grain of dust a purpose. Yet nobody ever seems to appreciate it. Everybody uses it, it's even used by tiny children. It really isn't beautiful, but if it could talk it could probably tell a lot of interesting stories. Stories of ad- venture and mystery and . . ., but maybe it's better this way. Maybe it would only tell of pain and heat and strife, and anyway nobody cares enough for it to listen to it. No, nobody cares for it, not even the little children. Why the government doesn't even care if ignorant people mess it up. After all, it is not import- ant, never served any great purpose, at least that's what people say. And what's so nice about being run over and spit on and trying to help if these inconsiderate homosapiens never appreciate what you do? But then the majority wins so who gives a darn? It's only an old, dirty road. Dave Bach, 9:3:8. HOW TO CHANGE A BABY Changing a baby is easy. I've watched mother do it a hundred times. First, you gather the necessary equipment: pins, powder and paraphernalia. Then you lay the baby down, face up and re - - - ooops! The infant must be top heavy. Ah! Now you remove the - - - Cget back over? - - - diaper. You thought this to be a routine task, but it is bound to exceed your expectations. Well, you plunge into the distasteful task, only to find the kleenex out of reach. Should I carry the baby to the tissue or hurry and chance catching the top heavy bundle as it rolls off the table? There go the safety pins. How could that chubby arm. so unerringly be on target? Up with the pins, down with the powder, up with the powder, down with the pins, ad infini- tum. Next you craftily put the powder under your arm and stick the pins into your blouse and, believe me, you get stuck with them. It's old-fashioned, but you may use the triangular foldg but should it be acute or obtuse? By now you're feeling obtuse. Whew! Finally theyr'e on and pinned. Admiringly you place the infant in a vertical position, only to see the diaper slip gracefully to the ankles. If you should ever own one of these delightfully wriggly creatures, sew buttons on the diapers and use midget braces. Sharon Jackson. A DESERTED HOUSE I watch as the sun slowly sinks and dark- ness falls over the land. The night grows cold and a chilly wind begins to whip the country- side. Here I stand, alone on the hilltop, for no one ever visits me. Humans say I am haunt- ed because of the lonely cries I emit during But they say my calls are from the night. spirits which roam within me. Therefore, I continue to be shunned. My garden, which once was very beautiful, has become tangled and filled with weeds. The shutters are torn off or hanging loosely from my glassless win- dows. My stairs are creaky and rotted, as are the floors. The dust and this musty odour are becoming unbearable. Soon, I will die and fall and crumble to the earth. My every hope is gone, for I am nothing but a deserted house. Nancy Bekkering, 9 :3 25. HOW TO COAX YOUR LITTLE SISTER TO DO WHAT YOU DON'T HAVE TIME TO DO Have a long talk with your little sister and try to point out some advantages for her in helping you. Tell her how perfectly it fits in with her schedule. Mention some of the outstanding things you have done for her, and those you intend to do. Be as nice as possible tof'lher.r The next time she answers the phone and imitates you, don't scream at her and grab the telephone. Calmly ask for it and ease it out of her hand. Save most of your strength for the next volleyball game. She has enough bruises anyway. The next time her notebook falls in the mud, help her to retrieve it. When she comes to you with her daily problems, listen to them in full. Who knows? Perhaps you can gain some knowledge. Next, get down to business. CD0 not take this seriously.l We merely mean to bring up the subject and ask her nicely to please do it for elsel. Show her how terribly busy you are. After doing all of these things, she should co-operate. Kathy Kelman, 92315. ,Z GIRLS' SPORTS The girls' grade nine school team consisted of Jane Howell Ccaptainl, Johanne Knapp, Janice Sutherland, Wendy Mills, Joan Noble, Jane Robertson, June Hepperle, Barb Bryant, Diane Long and Barb Mitchell. This team didn't win too many games, but they still main- tained the Westdale spirit and put up a good fight. In grade nine interleague basketball, Class 9:3112 defeated Class 9:3211 in the finals. It was well played by both teams, but 9:3:12 just seemed to have that extra oomph . There were no hard feelings, and all of the classes enjoyed participating in this sport. Real class spirit was displayed. At the present, the volleyball season is arousing excitement among Westdale athletes. They are anxious to appear on the gym floor to show their skill Cand lose those extra poundsl. Kathy Kelman, 9:3:5. BOYS' SPORTS CFor Grade Ninej For the boys in grade nine, there was intra- mural basketball competition. The class teams competed against each other developing their talent in this sport. There was much enthusi- asm, -and Class 9:3:1 secured the champion- ship. Their competent leader was Stan Raphael. Unfortunately, there was not enough time for intramural volleyball competition. Both track and baseball competitions are coming up in the future. Bill Leuchter. RIDDLES 1. Who started the 40-hour week? Answer: Robinson Crusoe. He had all his work done by Friday. 2.

CONVENORS The newest addition to Westdale's Girls' Physical Education department is the conven- ors. The girls of Grades 11, 12 and 13 who were interested held a meeting in October with Mrs. Sheridan to discuss what was to be expected of a convenor. A convenor is a student assistant for the teacher in charge of each sport. Convening has a two-fold purpose. Primarily, it gives a girl the chance to obtain more advanced training in leadership and, secondly, it gives a girl the chance to obtain experience -in set- ting up tournaments for the sport she con- venes.

I TRACK This year started off with the large number of 26 on the track team. Now, midway through the school year, our size has increased to the enormous number of 40, thus proving that the girls have a keen interest in keeping physically fit. Everyone is glad that many girls come from Grade 9, for the girls can increase their skill as the years progress and develop into fine runners. Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 12:30 to 1:00 the girls practise their starts, their exercises and work at increasing their speed. Under the guidance of Mr. McLeish, the girls will attempt to bring home the trophy from the annual outdoor carnival for Hamilton and district schools. Mr. McLeish should be proud of the fine work he is doing. Westdale girls thank him. Carol Brown, 12G5. mg if ' M V . V ..z Q'- , 1 ' LFS 'NN W . I .

GRADE 13 HOCKEY Amid the laughter andridicule- of the male population of Westdale, the Grade 13 girls began the hockey season. Five teams: -Cats, Rebels, Cohorts, Mafia, and Hustlers, competed forthe championship. These hardy girls arose at unearthly hours for practice. At the beginning of the season, the Hustlers and 'the Rebels dominated the scene. This, however, did not discourage the other teams who made such a strong comeback that Mr. Russell's tfam was knocked right out of the league. The Hustlers also went down to third place. , At the time of writing this article, the final games of the tournament have not yet been played. As it now stands, Murray's Mafia, a strong defensive team, are in first place. They are followed by Tom's Cats, Harry's Hustlers, and finally Cooper's Cohorts, . The play-offs will be between the first and third, second and fourth place teams. The victors of these games Will attempt to win the championship. The work of the boys who coached and refereed the matches was greatly appreciated by all the girls. Those who came to cheer their teams have not forgotten the spectacle they observedg the girls who participated are not likely to forget either! Glennis MacLean, 13G3.

The games took place in mid-January, each team playing a round robin schedule, includ- ing home and away games. Grades 10 and 11 won all their games and thus won the cham.pionships without trouble. Although all the Grade 9 games close, Westdale went down to defeat each Grade 12 lost two of their three games. won only against Hill Park in our new nasium.

This school year of 1959-60 was quite suc- cessful foi' Westdale in the line of boys' sports. The senior football team started the year off right by winning the championship for the first time in six years. The senior basketball team had a pretty good season, being defeated in the semi-finals. Let's hope that next year they can go all the way. Our hockey team this year duplicated the senior football team's success, and brought home the championship. Much of the success this year was due to the tremendous support of the student body. This factor has a great bearing on the success and future of our interscholastic sports, and as long as it is maintained, I am quite certain that sports in Westdale will continue to be as successful as they were this year. I would like to thank all those who assisted me for their co-operation. Rodger James. JUNIOR FOOTBALL The 1959-60 Junior Football season com- menced September 8, under the able coaching of Mr. Glen Sonmor. A large number of foot- ball potentials were present, including a num- ber of seasoned veterans from last year. The team this year enjoyed a disappointing tally of two wins and four defeats, but never- theless, great promise was shown for a strong squad to follow next season. In exhibition play, the Trojans appeared quite powerful. The team travelled to Ridley and returned triumphantly with a 14-7 victory over the orange and black. The following games, however, proved to be not as successful. Playing their first game at Civic Stadium against Delta, the juniors fell prey to a few unfortunate fumbles, resulting in early scores for the opponents. Although the green and gold fought back couragously, they never really recovered, and were downed 21-0. The H.A.A.A. grounds was the sight of the second game. Westdale was. playing at home to the blue and white of Cathedral, with our own boys emerging victorious with a 7-0 vic- tory. Fine running half-back Brian Fortney plunged over the line for the major score, and Jim Young sent the football sailing perfectly through the uprights for the single counter. Thus, after a hard-fought battle, Westdale won its first game. Against Hill Park one rainy Wednesday on a muddy H.A.A.A. field, the green and gold were less fortunate. The squad put up a valiant struggle, but all to no avail, as the league champions trod over us 18-0, adding even m.ore misery to the day. The juniors' playoff hopes were now quite desperate, and Central cancelled all chance of a playoff berth by a decisive victory of 9-0 at the H.A.A.A. grounds on another rain-drenched field. Now being out of the playoffs, Westdale staged its final game at the H.A.A.A. grounds against Hill Park. After five long, weary games, the team finally came to life. Spec- tators were kept on the edge of their seats by the spectacular passing of Doug Koroscil and receiving of Paul Hutchinson, and the electri- fying running of Ron Smith and Dave Mac- Dowell. Hill Park drew first blood with an unconverted touchdown, but hard plunging halfback Jim Young tied the game with a quick scamper through the right side of the line into Hill Park's end zone. Jim then went on to convert his touchdown, putting Westdale in front, 7-6. The score remained unchanged throughout the remainder of the game, and the Westdale Trojans had emerged victorious for the second time in the season. The team would like to extend its thanks to its coach, Mr. Glen Sonmor, for doing such a fine coaching job throughout the season, and to wish the green and gold of '60 all the suc- cess in the world. Good luck, Trojans of '60! Dave Banting. WELL, IT'S ABOUT TIME! This was a familiar phrase heard about the halls of Westdale for many days after a small but hard-headed group of fellows brought the Senior football trophy back af-ter an ab- sence of six years. We call this team hard- headed because they had to be hard to stay in one piece and win the championship at the same time. At 4:30, September 1, Mr. Fraser, Mr. Hazel and Mr. Jim Thompson Ca college buddy of Mr. Fraser'sD began to cement a group of 21 players into one of the smallest and most efficient teams Westdale has seen. The team played its first game against Grimsby after 11 days of practice. Westdale suffered a 19-1 defeat, and at this point the hopes of the 1959 Westdale Senior football team dropped. After the game, the team re- ceived a brief and to-the-point blast by Mr. Fraser. Not only did Westdale lose this game but they also lost two good players, Rick Lees and Bob Kronas, because of injuries. The next week the squad travelled to Ridley, where they won their first game, but once again paid a terrific price by losing their quar- terback, John Smith. The driver's seat was then filled by Ken Hunter, who unmistakably proved himself during this game. The team opened their regular season on Friday, September 30, when they surprised many people by holding the over-rated Delta team to a score of 6-2. Westdale's two points were gained on kicks by Doug Welch. The team went back to the dressing room., not dis- couraged, but with more fight than ever before. On the following Wednesday, Westdale took revenge and crushed the blue and white with a score of 27-0. The first touchdown was scored by Billy Wilson on a reverse around the left end. Later Doug Welch, on a fake kick, scored the second major for Westdale. Doug scored his second T.D. by picking up a fumble and galloping 65 yards. Don Emslie, after working the ball up by long gains, finally plunged over for the fourth T.D. Ken Hunter converted two of the four touchdowns. On Monday, October 5, the Westdale fans realized that they had a football team to be proud of as the fellows defeated a strong Hill Park team by the score of 14-0. This game was played in mud to the ankles, and because of their win the Westdale squad was now termed good mudders . The scoring was opened by a single by Welch. John Price then set up a touchdown as he blocked a kick and fell on the loose ball. On the next play, Ken Hunter romped over for the T.D. Later in the game, Welch sent a booming kick deep into the end zone, where a crushing tackle was heard and Pat Thode, being Johnny on the spot , fell on the loose ball for the major. On Friday, October 16, Westdale paid back Delta for the defeat at the start of the season. The scoring was opened as Stan Paikin shrewd- ly returned a kick. After repeated gains by Don Emslie, Welch broke into the scoring with a major. Doug followed this closely by an- other major which was gained from a fumble. Stan Paikin then went high into the air to make an interception and carried it to the 20. From here Don Emslie went over for the T.D. The following Wednesday the team took Central in its stride by a 22-0 defeat. In the second quarter, Don Emslie broke through the line and lateralled to Harland Izatt, a very fast back, who carried the ball 80 yards for the T.D. Welch then added a single. Next, Malcolm McPherson intercepted a pass on the 50 and galloped for a T.D., followed closely by a major by Don Emslie. Big Bob Angi added a rouge to the final score. Westdale wound up the schedule by defeat- ing Hill Park 25-7. An 85-yard run by Don Emslie opened the scoring. This was followed by an end sweep by Bill Wilson which resulted in another T.D. John Price picked up a fum.- ble and paced the Hill Park defenders all the way to the goal line. Doug Welch ended the scoring with a T.D. after a lateral from Ken Hunter. The championship game against Cathedral was played on Wednesday, November 11, in one large mud puddle. This was a very scrappy game. The first half was even. Cathedral in this half went ahead, 1-0. The second half was mostly one-sided in favour of Westdale, and it was Doug Welch who went over for the winning T.D. Westdale had four very deserving players picked for the All-Star team this year. They were: John Nowaki, tackle: Bob Angi, centre: Don Emslie, halfback, Ken Hunter, quarter- back. Don Emslie also won the most sportsmanlike player award and Doug Welch won top honours in the scoring department. I think congratulations are in order for this 1959 team. This was a squad which had few players, but these few players Wanted to win -and they did! At this time, on behalf of the team and students of Westdale: Thank you, Mr. Fraser, Mr. Hazell and Mr. Thompson, for all you did in making this year a year of glory for West- dale Secondary School.

Throughout the fall season, on Tuesdays and Thursdays, shouts of encouragement from both coaches and team members, urging the players on, echoed over the playing field. Although the calibre of football played did not cause the Seniors to worry about competition, I am sure that all the participants had ia great deal of fun, even if they didn't learn a great deal about football. The two leagues each consisted of four teams and the teams in turn had about 15 boys dress- ed for each game. Every piece of equipment was supplied by the school, and the games were refereed by fellow students. Competition was keen and the players did not give up until the last game was played. Thus, many boys who, perhaps, would not have played football, participated in and en- joyed this great game. Gary Smith, 12G6. THIS WAS BASKETBALL This year Westdale was very fortunate to have one of their finest basketball teams in recent years. The Westdale Seniors provided the fans wi-th fine play and, besides that, they won the majority of their games. The Dawn Patrol had a fine 5-2 record this year, and at the end of the season found them- selves 'tied for first place with Central and Delta. A meeting was held and it was 'decided that the team with the best for and against record in the games in which they had played each other would get the bye into the final. The other teams would play off for the re- maining spot. Unfortunately for Westdale, Delta got 'the bye and Westdale had to meet Central in the extra game. The game, which was played at Westdale, was close more than three quarters, and then the inspired Central squad pulled ahead -to win. The Central team went into the two-game final and had lit-tle trouble in defeating Delta. If Westdale had been able to get the bye, the final might have been much closer. Westdale in the first game of the season showed their offensive power by trouncing Hill Park 85-55. The scoring honours went to Dave Braley who hooped 22, while Jerry Raphael netted 19. The last game before the Christmas holidays was played at home against Cathedral. This time the Westdalers never were in any trouble as they coasted to a 90-54 win. Jerry Raphael was high with 27 and Braley sank 15. After the holidays, Westdale was host to Central, and the Dawn Patrol played their finest game of the season and trounced Cen- tral 75-53 before a packed gym. They proved to everybody, including themselves, that they could go all the way. Raphael rammed home 31 points, while Braley again scored 15, The following week, Westdale moved to Delta and lost their first game of the season, 58-75. The boys could not get untracked, and every move they made seemed to be wrong. Their shooting was erratic and the result was in- evitable from the beginning. The only bright spot was that Raphael rang up 26 more points and was well on his way to a new record. Hill Park visited Westdale in their last meet- ing of the season, and Westdale dealt them a 86-65 setback. Jerry Paphael had a field day and scored 44 points, just eight shy of the H.I.A.C. record. Cathedral was Westdales' next victim, losing 91-62. Raphael was again high with 31 while Russell netted 14. Close at his heels came Braley with 13. At Central, the Ghosts avenged their pre- vious defeat by Westdale and won 78-69. The Dawn Patrol seemed to be greatly hampered by the small gym and could not get a produc- tive offensive started. In what was scheduled to be the last league game, Westdale turned back Delta 72-66 in one of the closest and hardest fought games ofthe campaign. Westdale knew that everything hinged on this contest, and they came through with the big win. Raphael went into the game needing 15 points for a new record. He came through and scored 22. Much to the dismay of Westdale fans, we lost the play-off but things look good for next year. Three of the starting five will be re- turning while other teams are losing their top players, so We expect big things from the Dawn Patrol next year. Footiniotie: Not only did Jerry Raphael set a new scoring record, but he was also the only Westdale player picked for the all-star team.

The result, a record of three wins and five defeats. The games that were lost, however, were very close and provided great excitement for the fans. The first game of the season was at Hill Park, and here Westdale won a close one, 31- 28. The lead changed hands many times and the game could have gone either way. Bruce Mochrie was high point-getter for Westdale with 12. Against Cathedral, at home, Westdale was trounced by the Baby Gaels. Cathedral later went on to win the championship against Hill Park in the two-game final. At home against Central, Westdale won their second game of the season, this time by a slim three points, 53-50. Grant Belfry and Bruce Mochrie shared scoring honours with 18 points each. Westdale visited Delta and here won their second game in a row by defeating Delta 66-51. This was to be the biggest victory of the season for the Westdale squad. The fast break played a big part in this game, with Westdale getting the jump on their hosts most of 'the evening. Jerry Plasky was high with 19, while team- mate Mochrie hooped 18. The next game was at home against Hill Park, and Westdale lost in one of the closest games of the season, this time by two points, 41-39. Hill Park led for more than half the game and then Westdale began to hit. They closed the gap and briefly went ahead, but then the Rams scored four quick points and before Westdale could retaliate time ran out. Mochrie was again high for Westdale, this time sink- ing 17. Westdale next met Cathedral on the Gaels' home court. Westdale lost, but this was by far the best game that Westdale played all season, the final score being 45-41. Westdale sur- prised the Cathedral squad, and if the Gaels had taken any longer to get untangled they would have found themselves on the short side of the score. Plasky netted 15 for Westdale, At home against Central, Westdale met de- feat to the tune of 56-48. Central led most of the way and seemed to be in little difficulty -throughout the game. Plasky rammed home 16 points in a losing cause. In the last game of the season, Westdale looked as if they would end the season with a win as they led most of the way. Westdale held a 10-point lead going into the fourth quar- ter, and then it happened: they completely fell apart, and Delta took advantage took advan- tage of the lapse in Westdale play to eke out a 48-47 win. We can expect a better junior team next season as many of the players will again be eligible to play, and with a year's experience behind them the team could go far. Bruce Mochrie, Gerry Plasky and Grant Belfry are expected to move up to the Seniors next year to give the Dawn Patrol more support. John Robinson, Jr. JUNIOR WATER POLO Beginning away back in October, the West- dale Junior water polo team held practises at every available moment in preparation for the 1959-60 season. With only three returnees from last year's squad, the coach, Mr. N. Reid, was faced with an almost complete rebuilding job. However, through his efforts and those of the players themselves, the year turned out to be a great success. Westdale opened the season against Delta, and were defeated 11-4 by a much more ex- perienced team, Just one week later, the team fought to a 3-3 tie with Cathedral, although Westdale dominated most of the play. Improving with every game, Westdale rolled over Hill Park 4-1, and assured themselves of a play-off spot. Westdale finished off the season by drop- ping a 6-3 decision to Central. In the sudden death semi-finals, the boys again faced Central and played a great game before bowing to a 3-2 defeat. Next year, the Juniors will be looking for a championship. Let's get behind them, and lend some support. Dave Booth, Westdale's centre, had a great season, as he tied a Delta player for the league scoring title. Everyone on the team would like to thank Mr. Norm. Reid for his help and patience, with- out which the season would not have been a success.

Rated as underdogs, the boys came through in spectacular fashion. especially towards the end of the season. Just a few weeks after the Christmas holi- days, Westdale opened the season against a powerful Delta club. Heavily favoured to win, Delta lived up to all of their advance notices, as they rammed lin six goals in the first half and coasted -to a 7-0 victory. One week later, Westdale met last year's champions, Cathedral. Jumping into a 2-1 lead early in the game, the Warriors fired three quick goals in the third quarter to gain an impressive 5-3 win, Then, after a two weeks' break from games, but not practices, Westdale faced Central in a rough and tumble affair. The experience showed up in this game and Westdale lost, 5-2. Now faced with possible elimination from the play-offs, the 'team practised long and hard in preparation for the all-important game against Hill Park. At the end of the first quarter, Westdale was down one goal -to nil, but then the tables were turned and Westdale swamped the opposition and won 4-1. By this win, Westdale qualified to enter the play-offs against 'Central. The game turned out to be exciting in recent years, as matched teams battled to a the end of regulation time. calle-d for, and the teams fought for two more periods before Central emerged victorious. Pat Thode was outstanding in -the game, firing all four goals for Westdale. Thanks from the whole team to Mr. Ried who, with his interest, coaching and patience, made the year successful, and also to Stan Nichol, manager, who did such a fine job with the equipment and who also kept the spirits high. one of the most the two evenly 4-4 deadlock at Overtime was The Team Rick Lees Ccaptainj : The leader of the team, he played centre, scored a few goals and cracked jokes. Pat Thode: Did a fine job at rover and left wing, led the team in scoring with seven goal-s, and will probably be back next year. Dave Blair: Patrolled right wingg a fine play-maker, with a lot of spirit. Brian Kain: Played defense all year - a real fighter. Alan Norgate: Al also played defense - he's big and has an effective long shot. Paul Di Salvo: All that has to be said about him is that he's the best goalie in the league. Bob Jackson: Filled in at almost every posi- tion at one time or another. BOYS' SWIMMING TEAM The Boys' Swimming Team did fairly well in 1959-60, although they failed to win any in- dividual titles at the H.I.A.C. Swim Meet, held on February 23, 1960, at the Municipal Pool. The relay team of Rick Lees, Dave Blair, Alan Norgate and Murray Smith placed fifth in the 200-yard free-style relay event, in which event eight teams were entered. Murray Smith took second place in the 50- yard -backstroke final, While Dave Booth took second in the 50-yd. -breaststroke and third in the 50-yd. butterfly. Thanks from the whole team to Coach Norm Reid, for giving his time and interest to the swimming club this year. Kim McCullough. SENIOR WATER POLO lst row: K. McCulloch, P. Thode, R. Lees, P.

The Westdale team added to the increasing glory of the Green and Gold by win- ning the city championship: Right from the start of the 12-game schedule, our team demonstrated that they were the team to contend with for the honours. They won their first six games, and finished on top of the league with nine victories against three defeats. Delta finished second. In the play- off game, our boys defeated Delta 5-4 in over- time to cop .the city championship. The play-off game was a real thriller. West- dale jumped into an early lead in the first period on goals by Brian McLean and Doug Welch, but Delta came back to tie the score in the second period. Goals by John Price and Gary Morrison again put the Green and Gold ahead, but Delta tied up the score just before the final whistle. In the sudden death over- time period, Bill McLelland made him-self a hero by scoring the goal that gave Westdale the championship, The Westdale team also played four exhibi- tion games, losing to Ridley College but win- ning from Nicholls College and from H.I.T. twice. Lloyd Leggat led the league in scoring, with Gary Morrison not far behind Moose Mc- Pherson, in goal, made many spectacular stops during the season and was ably supported by the fine defen-sive work of Jock Tindale and Johnny Price. The teamwork and overall play ofthe boys was a tribute to the fine coaching of Mr. Sonmore and Mr. Fraser, who assisted him. e The Record Westdale - 5 Central - - - 2 Westdale Delta - - Westdale Central - Westdale Hill Park Westdale Delta - - Westdale Hill Park Westdale Delta - - Westdale Central - Westdale Hill Park Westdale Central - Westdale Delta - - Westdale Hill Park Westdale Delta - - Final Westdale Delta - - Gord Price GRADE 13 HOCKEY - BOYS The league this year was composed of five teams: Tom's Cats, Murray's Mafia, Harry's Hustlers, Russell's Rebels and a fifth entry called Cooper's Cohorts, Who quickly dropped out of contention after losing their first three games. From the outset of the schedule in November, it became apparent that the other four teams were very evenly balanced. After a full schedule of eight gruelling games, the marvellous Murray's Mafia ended up in first place, followed in order by the Hustlers, Rebels, Cats and the lowly Cohorts. In the pulsating playoffs, the fast-skating Mafia eked out a close 11-5 decision from the 28-man Rebel squad. In the second division of the playoffs, the hard-checking Cats com- pletely outplayed and outmanoeuvred the help- less Hustlers and won handily, 8-3. In the final game, played at Dundas Arena on March 28, the never-say-die Cats squeaked out an exciting 6-5 victory over the weary Mafia. All in all, the league this year was a com- plete success. Art Lumsden, Pete Connor. VOLLEYBALL In 1960 Westdale had a disappointing volley- ball season. This year's annual tournament was held in the boys' gym on Wednesday, March 30. It was in the form of a round robin series with the top two of the four teams en- tered meeting in a sudden death final to decide the city championship. Although We didn't make the finals, we tied Central, last year's champions, with one win and two defeats. After being in the lead 6-2 in our first game with Delta, We blew the lead and lost what proved to be a very costly game. However, in our second game We defeated Hill Park 15- 13, with all the boys contributing a solid team effort. Unfortunately, Captain Jack Jaunze- mis suffered a dislocated elbow while trying to make a play on an impossible shot. His injury seemed to affect the team, for it was soundly defeated by Central in the final game. Delta and Hill Park met in the finals with Delta emerging as champions. If any weakness was noticeable, it would have to be the lack of back court co-ordination. However, the boys had only one month's prac- tice before the tournament, and the majority of the team members were playing organized volleyball for the first time. The team would like to thank Mr. Patterson, our coach, and Walter Grishco and Randy McLeod, our man- agers, for being so patient with us. The Team Bob Angi--Our best spiker, and very good on offense. Mike Hill-A very good server, and a fine vol- leyer. Alf Bass-Good in the clutch, made some great saves. Fred Posner-Our set-up man, with all-round ability. Pete Snyder-A steady server, who made tough shots look easy. Jack Jaunzemis-Our captain who led us well. Dave Rutter and Verne Heine-They surprised everyone with their steady, dependable play- making. Robert Ursul. Compliments of Jessup Pharmacy Ltd.

Yet it should be one of its most popu- lar ones. Whether a boy is interested in physi- cal fitness or in keen competition, he will find it 'in rowing. Last year, Westdale had crews competing in the local city schoolboy regatta against Central and Delta. Although we did not win a single race, four of'our crews qualified to compete in the Canadian Schoolboy Regatta held on the Henley course in Port Dalhousie in June. In this regatta, competing against crews from all over Canada and parts of the U.S.A., three of our crews fell by 'the wayside. The fourth crew, however, a lightweight four made up of Gord Price, Bill Muir, Ron Szabados and Pat Campbell, won its heat and qualified for the finals. In the final, it almost brought a 'Can- adian championship to Westdale. It led all the way down the one-mile course until about 75 yards from the finish, when Toronto Hum- berside Collegiate overtook them. All the Hamilton schoolboy rowing teams: Central, Delta and Westdale, row out of the Leander Boat Club. This Club supplies the schools with expert coaches, expensive boats which cost upward of 33000, and all the Club's training facilities. Every night after school during the spring term, the boys go down to the Club at the foot of John Street for an hour's workout. As a muscle builder and body conditioner, there is no better sport. Rowing is for everybody, regardless of size or weight. There are 135-lb. and under crews, as Well as 145-lb., 155-lb., and heavyweight crews. Mr. Fraser, our teacher-manager, and Mr. Sonmor have already set up a weight- training course for prospective oarsmen in order to have them in 'top shape for the regat- tas. Anyone interested in rowing next year should contact Mr. Fraser. Perhaps by the time this magazine comes out, the Schoolboy Regatta will be over for another year. If that is the case, it could be that a Westdale crew will have added a Can- adian championship title to our ever-growing trophy case. Johnny Price. ROWING lst row: M. Smith, J.

The half-mile relay team placed a close third. This same relay team then competed in the 91st Highlanders' meet and came second be- hind a very strong Central team. The bright sun and the green grass brought an even stronger representation to the back campus as the team began to get in shape for the outdoor meets. The first of these was held at Saltfleet, where the team compiled the most points very handily. The team then travelled to compete with a Toronto high school. The boys enjoyed a pleasant and refreshing dip in the Toronto- nians' new pool after doing very well for themselves out on the track. A very exciting school meet, which is an annual event, was held on the back campus and proved to be a record breaker. Gerry Raphael vaulted 9 feet 8521 inches for a new school record. Don Young established two new marks in the 100 and 220-yard events, while Paul Hutchinson bettered the old 440-yard mark. Other records fell to Bob Kronas, Don Emslie, Brian Fortney, Doug Welch, Gord Dol- mon and Barry Tait. From the school meet, runners were chosen to compete in the Relay Carnival and the H.I. A.C. championships. The Grades 11, 12 and 13 teams at the Carnival, held at McMaster, made a good showing, while the quarter, half- mile and medley relay teams did equally well. The half-mile team was plagued with two butter-fingered baton handlers who managed to drop the stick and throw the race. The climax to the track and field season is the H.I.A.C. meet, held last year at Sackville Park. Despite the handicap of a very stiff breeze, four new records were established. The only Westdaleite to have his name down in the record book was Doug Welch. However, West- dale placed second with 92 points, behind Cen- tral who accumulated 103 points. The par- ticipation of more junior members could have meant a victory for Westdale. Paul Hutchinson, 12G4. WEIGHT TRAINING With the additional dumbbells and barbells, this year Westdale started a weight training programme for the first time. In January, 16 boys under the guidance of Mr. Hazel, started a test programme of 10 weeks, and at the end of the period all of the results were quite favourable. I'm sure that with this ap- paratus and programme, Westdale will remain on top of the sports leagues. Tim Woods. BOYS' GYM CLUB The boys 'gym club got off to a slow start with the extended finishing date of the new gym. As yet we have entered no competition this year, though we have excellent potential strength in the recruits from grade nine. On Wednesday, February 10th, we staged a dis- play of box horse and trampoline routines at half-time of the student-teacher basketball game, it seemed very successful and I hope to hold more in next year's basketball series. Mr. Patterson and I coach the team Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. All newcomers are welcome. Tim Woods. THE LARGEST Selection of Sporting Goods in Hamilton at ami niiiini's 1 Q M .

This is a question that seems to have been settled by Parliament when Arrow production was stopped. However, there still rages a violent controversy about this question, in Par- liament and elsewhere. To me, the answer is clear, but this is perhaps caused by the fact that I am Canadian and do not like to see Canadians victimized. Perhaps the flurry for American missiles is, in part, caused by the fact that on the date of the first test flight of the Arrow, the U.S. S.R, sent up their first satellite. This of course, caused many to think of the Russians as far superior -and considered that proved the age of missiles was truly here. But, the facts prove that planes will still be used for years to come, and since the Arrow is accepted to be potentially the fastest plane on earth, why take anything else? Others, again, maintain that unless the U.S.A. buys some Arrows we should not build them for financial reasons. These people would even go so far as to scrap Canada's Armed Forces and let the U.S. foot the bill for our defence. These shortsighted persons do not realize that this is getting closer than ever to U.S. domination of Canada and com- plete loss of national ident-ity. Therefore, it seems to me that the answer is neither extreme but rather a happy medium: That is, finish the remaining uncompleted Arrows, to have a nucleus of supersonic air- craft, but also accept U.S. aid. In this way, I thinlii we will have found the true solution. Andy Jaunzems, 10G2. My sincere 'thanks to my committee, without whose assistance the Literary Section could not have been made possible.

I could tell it was he - crowds of girls always surrounded himg and to think I would be in that crowd now! Then could I look upon his face - and brag to less fortunate girls whose emotions were stirred by just listening to him. Oh! but he was handsome. His brown eyes had a look of defiance in them, 'they dared anyone to challenge him. With each deep breath his nose snorted slightly. Defiant like his eyes was the smile on his lips. Strong was his chin, and thick his neck. Under his skin with every tiny movement Writhed magnificent, snake-like muscles. His legs bowed slightly under the weight of his muscular, heavy-set body. I could easily understand why any girl would want to follow him, no matter where he went. Confidently I approached. I knew that my nails had been carefully manicured, that a becoming woolly collar framed my small neck, that my sparkling, freshly-washed hair softly curled around my 'tiny ears -- in short, that I was a perfect picture of beauty. Shoulder- ing my way through pushing, screeching, whin- ing crowds of girls, I managed to get so close that I could almost touch him. Would be see me? Yes! he did. His roving eye had lighted on meg out of all those beautiful girls, he had it--Grade IX literary works are in the Grade IX section. picked me. Over me swept a wave of excite- ment. I felt dizzy - dizzy because of his nearness. And then - no! his eye bypassed meg looked at the girl behind me. I did not blame him, she was beautiful to behold. Yet. he should not have given me false hopes. Sadly I watched the two walk away. They had seen each other and had known. I had only been a spectator to their fated meeting. But what did it matter anyway? What were my feelings compared to theirs? He was a bulldogg and I? I was only a poodle. I Nan Coolsma, 11G1. THE FOUR WALLS The guard returns for the tray of soiled dishes and brings with him news from the outside. The letter is from a childhood sweet- heart, telling of the civil strife at home. Civil war has broken out after the assassination of Caesar, Quintus reads with increasing diffi- cultyg grief fills the young man's heart. It is several minutes before he can resume: the letter continues: Cornelia has run off with a German slave because she is tired of waiting for him. Shocked and startled as he is, Quin- tus does not have grief enough left for him- self. Life in a prison cell without a warm summer breeze, the smells of the market and sunlight is a routine of eating, sleeping and thinking: worst of all, thinking. On the four walls is the result of his thinking. Days, months, years marked off by eight thousand, two hundred and ninety-five nicks. Eight thousand, two hundred and ninety-five days and nights held back by those four walls - walls, depressing, degenerating Walls. Dirty, filthy walls marked with the pains of genera- tions of men. Overcome by frustration, Quin- tus sinks into uneasy sleep to dream of days gone by. Those days with Cornelia and Jotape: those days of eating and drinking - good things. He dreams of daring exploits along the Nile in Egypt, dreams of days with his love in Rome. Those fond days: but, alas, he crossed fate once too often. Down with tyran- ny had been the cry of his followers, how- ever, the tyrant had overcome. The sound of footsteps awakens Quintus. Returning is the guard with supper, which consists of bread and grapes flavoured with garlic. Again, with him Drusus has news from the outside. Because this is to be the last meal served Quintus, it is something special - all this is explained by Drusus - also Quin- tus must be ready to leave his cell in one hour. Quintus, however, has heard of these nightly departures, which usually end with your body being found at dawn - or not at all. From the tray he takes up the knife and plunges it into his heart. An hour has passed and Drusus, the guard, returns. He speaks: Come, Quintus, you are free now. Paul Gravelle. BARBER SHOP BLUES When a parade is passing by and a police- man admonishes me to step back on the side- walk, I can look him in the eye and ask him if this is a free country, or not. However, when I walk into the neighbourhood four-chair CGustav, Tony, Sam and Harryj barber shop, I turn into a jelly doughnut. Gustav is an artisan, and I'd be willing to read the entire classified ad section of the Saturday paper waiting for him. Tony, Sam and Harry, on the other hand, should be pro- hibited by city ordinance from putting scissors to a coconut. Yet, every time I appear on the premises, Gustav is just starting to work on a haircut, shave, shampoo, mudpack and sun- lamp treatment while three patrons are simul- taneously vacating the other chairs. Now, although I'm able to stand unflinch- ingly stolid in the middle of the aisle when a burly bus driver commands me to step 'to the rear, I find myself stumbling towards the loudest voice when Tony, Sam and Harry shout Next! in unison. COn one occasion, tortured by indecision, I suddenly remembered I had another engagement and hastily left the shop, forgetting an um.brella and remaining unkempt for an additional week.l Furthermore, while one of these three Cit's usually Harry, who is by far the worst? is hacking jagged scallops around my ears, I always manage to meet the mirrored stares of Gertrude and Louie, the manicurist and shoe shine boy. Mesmerized, I nod dumbly and they're at my side, staging a mock attack on my gleaming shoes and immaculate nails. I try to justify their useless ministrations by imagining that Gertrude has three ailing tots to support and that Louie is four payments behind on his Rolls-Royce, but I know deep down that this is nonsense. It seems incred- ible that, at home, I can firmly shut the door in a brush salesman's face by the time he has said Good Mor - - - . Kind friends have suggested I telephone Gustav for an appointment and show up in my bare feet, wearing rubber gloves. But while I've succeeded in persuading a TV re- pairman to get out of bed at midnight and fix my set in time to catch the old movies, I have a feeling that if I called Gustav he'd say: Mr, Who? . . . call back tomorrow . . . I'm busy right now with a customer. It's a good thing I know how to shave my- self. Max Sherman, 11G7. GRADES XII AND XIII ENGLISH It has occurred to me that those people born in an English-speaking country are the most fortunate in-dividuals in the world, language- wise, at any rate. They do not have to go through the agonizing and bewildering experi- ence of learning English as a second language exclusively from a book or teacher, rather than from hearing it spoken around them. With very little imagination, one can con- jure uip the picture of a hopeful foreign stu- dent learning English, and at one point being quite pleased with himself as he gallops mer- rily through one of the corridors of the man- sion of the Hough family of words - the enough, tough branch, to be specific. Then he abruptly emerges into another passageway, to be confronted by a group of Hough words that, regardless of their looks, are pronounced not thruff , but though , Momentarily stupi- fied, he struggles gamely on through that hap- py little gallery, only to inevitably meet words like cough that have the sound of neither through nor rough . Once he stumbles out of this dimly-lit maze, he comes head-on into a salad of some of those English words fwhich sound alike and have different spellings and meanings, mixed with those which sound alike, have different spell- ings, but similar meanings, and seasoned with typographical errors and whimsical punctua- tion. This creation, though lightly tossed, is nevertheless somewhat heavy to digest, Warily the student advances to the next lesson, which on the surface, seems fairly simple. In his opinion, the abbreviation and hyphenation of words is strictly memory work and sound reas- oning. He continues to think this, until he reads another country's version of the subject and finds that the English, American and Can- adian textbook authors are in disagreement. No wonder there is so much trouble in the world, he s-ays to himself, these nations can- not agree 'on the words they use, let alone the meaning of them! As the student struggles through the seem- ingly never-ending lessons and problems, in his second or third year, he is allowed to read a genuine English story or poem Cmeant for English-speaking readersl. Any blossom of happiness at this prospect is soon swamped by a downpour of archaic words such as shoon, forsooth, peradventure, eke, anon, or methinks, used to add a quaint flavour to a poem or story and confuse the beginnerg and words with many varied meanings, of which all are in his dictionary except the one required. He must also carefully pick his way through a swamp of complex, and often misleading, figures of speech - long, complicated metaphors and similes Csuih as the one given abovel and con- fusing persoiiifications - one false step from the narrow path of correct explanation, and he is in a quagmire of confusion once more. But by far the most bewildering area of the English language is slang. Upon his intro- duction to this subject, the studen-t's thoughts could run along this line: Slang? What's a slang? Maybe it is the past tense of the verb to sling'? Once straightened out on the word and its meaning, he plunges gamely on to the examples. Do you blame him if a connection between the words yellow , chicken and coward fails him, or if he cannot understand how rib or kid mean to mock or make fun of , -and not a part of the 'body or a young goat? The next time you are complaining about parsing a sentence, stop a moment and think of the many people struggling to grasp even the basic fundamentals of your language! Nairn Galvin, 12G1. MODERN CHIVALRY The old chivalry is dead! Long live modern chivalry! I hope not. If chivalry is to be de- fined as courtesy, I fear the topic of my essay is almost non-existent. In the following para- graphs I'll try to give you some examples of modern chivalry. Picture this: You have been driven home on a wet, rainy day by a typical teen-aged boy. He stops the car in front of your house. In- stead of dashing around to open your door, he looks at you quizically and asks if this is where you live. You assure him it is, and he informs you the handle must be pulled up in order to open the door. Tired and disillusion- ed, you stumble out of the car and into the mud puddle he has neatly parked beside. You drop 10 of your 20 parcels. Will he finally come to your aid? Judging from the smell of his exhaust, I'd say no. A similar instance occurs when you are leaving a building. You approach the door and wait patiently for him to open it. Four or five minutes later even the most patient girl would give up. If anything, he'll ask if you want to go out after all. Maybe I'm being unfair. If he reaches the door first, he will open it. Of course, he walks out ahead of you, but he does actually open the door! This fail- ing in the male of the species can be dangerous if it happens to be a swinging door. My last example of modern chivalry can be found at any restaurant frequented by a teen- aged crowd. It is usually crowded and con- sequently it is difficult to find a place to sit. A crowd of boys and a crowd of girls arrive simultaneously. You'd think the boys would let the girls sit in the first available booth, wouldn't you? Not on your life! The only way the girls will manage to seat themselves will be by being the cham.pion track runner or elbow digger of the district. This is chivalry? In closing, I would like to say that I'd like to see more of that old chivalrythat is so ob- viously dead. I am not being unreasonable. I wouldn't want a boy 'to ruin his new suburban coat just so that I could cross a puddle safely: but a little more common courtesy would be verygwelcome in this day and age. Marna Webb, 12G6. THINGS ABOUT BOYS WHICH IRRITATE ME The things about boys which irritate me make such a lengthy list that it is extremely difficult to choose the main ones which annoy me the most. Needless to say, I am, ia member of the feminine party, as one can readily tell by my introductory words. It is my considered opinion that, although the female of the species has by no means found perfection, the mascu- line gender is lagging noticeably behind. Four of the main annoying habits which bar their road to success are: cultivated conceit, bound- less enthusiasm for sports above all else, a false dislike for the latest fashions and a com- plex wherein they have the misconstrued im- pression that they are superior to the opposite sex. In explaining my views, I would first like to make a comment or two on the conceit of the male. Now, as in proving any theory, one must have facts which will uphold the theory. The facts for this case are very easy to ob- tain. One need look no farther than the closest mirror. Parked in front of his reflection will undoubtedly be one miniature Cary Grant , or so it seems to his warped little mind. In one hand is none other than a greasy comb, while the other is busily engaged in arranging the style of les cheveux . Also familiar is the long-established habit of taking people for granted. One noteworthy illustration of this is the boy who Waits until one day before the big Prom to ask his girl friend to the dance. Conceit! Conceit, and nothing but conceit! Secondly, what girl doesnlt know the fan- tastic worship the average male has for sports? Mention football, basketball, hockey, in fact, anything remotely resembling a sport, and you will immediately -be given a play-by-play de- scription of the latest game.

Q fl . --' is fggxxa, .ixl In the third place, I would like to ask the masculine gender one simple question, if I may: If you men dislike the latest trends in fashion so much, then why is it that you have now taken to such practices as wearing Ber- muda shorts and socks? I can remember the loud wails which went up when girls paraded about in Bermudas, but apparently those shouts of disapproval were merely for the benefit of making the wearer feel inferior. No, you will have to surrender and admit you don't really hold that girls' styles in clothes are dopey . Lastly and, in my opinion, most important, is -this misconstrued idea that the males are undoubtedly superior to the opposite sex. How this illusion ever came to be, I cannot say, but one thing is certain. Where it started is pre- cisely where it should have ended! It is being proved more and more often every day that, given an opportunity, the female of the species is as capable, or even more so, in handling what used to be considered a man's job. Every- where, women are accepting positions of re- sponsibility, they are independent. Yet, in spite of all these irritating habits of males, we are willing to look for the best in boys, for, without them, what a dull world it would be! Besides, a girl may want a date next Friday night! Nancy Zavitz, 12G6. l 'Maxi OX' EI 1 TREATISE ON FELINE INTELLIGENTSIA OR, DOES MY CAT THINK? Does your cat think? someone asked of me. What a foolish question! My cat does cogitate and I have all sorts of evidence to prove it. She is just an alley cat with sleek, short fur, blacker than midnight, with great yellow orbs that remind you of a wise old owl and, I am sorry to say, an unfriendly disposition. Deb- orah Petunia is her name, but she has learned to answer to the shortened form of Debbie . Now I must get on with the argument that proves that my ca-t is a thinker, not perhaps of the calibre of an Einstein or Newton, but closer to that of a fig newton. She has found out through the years that, if she wants to sleep all afternoon, the place to do it is in the attic. This is where my brother George also takes refuge from the wear and tear of life, but Debbie is well aware that, most of the day, his nose is at the grindstone away from home and so she will not be disturbed. If she re- tires -to the second floor, she knows that vari- ous motley strangers may wander in and may even mount to the said floor to leave their fur, or even to freshen up , but no one dares ascend to the dizzy heights above to do either of 'these things, or any others for that matter. She is also aware that members of the family, after a general bathroom battle in the early hours, do not spend much time on the nth floor fn equals minus one to threel. She has also worked out a careful strategy to get back in the house after some all-night roustabouts about the late night spots. People, she noticed when they come to the door, give it a few blows with an appendage they call an arm Cwith attached handb. She, too, knocks upon the door with upraised front paw and receives absolutely nothing since this takes place between two and four a.m. If she feels that the old folks are tardy in this service, and you can bet they are at these hours, she gives them a piece of her mind Cherewith censoredl. Well, if you must know, this con- sists of me-ows and burps at various pitches from a basso to soprano. As further evidence of her capacity for thought, I might add that she is well aware of the fact that, to sharpen one's claws on the furniture is taboo, and so there is a lot of fun in doing it. If she persists in this enterprise, it is sure to bring someone on the double Cusualfly that someone who has paid for the furniturel, and then uttering urgent sounds Cthis refers to both ,participantsb she makes for the door, and is rewarded by being immedi- ately elevated out the door. Of course she thinks, Herbie. Pork liver Ccookedl is her favourite dish, though mem- bers ofthe family feel her diet should be more colourful. However, she has thought out a careful plan of attack. When no liver is forth- coming, she walks around the spot in the kitchen where she usually gases up, making pathetic noises that clearly signal the immin- ent end of our friend from malnutrition. Then if both a well-beaten egg and brand X are offered, she follows him about with wistful, staring eyes until they no longer can cope with this sad scene. Anything to escape from that fixed stare that never wavers! Certainly my cat thinks, Charley, and very clearly at times. Her head is not just an orna- ment, though it would make a very nice one, and what grey matter it encloses is used to the full, many times a day, hey. P.S.-Dogs not allowed. Nan Partridge, 12G5.

MODERN CHIVALRY Son, that's what I call modern chivalry! my dad bellowed as he charged past me. He had spent one hour lecturing me about Beth, my girl friend, and now I had to sit down and work out all he had said. As usual, it had started in the same old Way, with dad saying: Why, in my day the boy spotted a girl and then caught her. Well, that's what had happened with Beth and me. wasn't it? I had gone to the malt shop and Beth had just happened to walk in behind me. She had dropped her books, and I had bent over to pick them up. Since 'there was only one booth left, she had suggested we share it rather than have me stand. In my estima- tion I had her under my little finger the first day we met. And so our romance began the next day when Beth came to my locker to inquire as to the effect on my stomach of the three sundaes which she had purchased for me the evening before. Since I said I was not feeling too well, she phoned me that night to make sure I was all right. At eight o'clock she came to pick me up in her new car, a little pink Thunderbird. Dad nearly hit the roof, but I managed to get him under control by the time we left. He has to watch his heart condition. Since I couldn't drive, I offered to put a few cents in for gas. I only had 15 cents with me at the time, and we couldn't get much gas. We drove out to a little elite restaurant on the other side of town. We had a pretty good meal, but it must have cost her a fortune. She was a good sport about it, and I decided not to tell her that I didn't have enough money for the gas home. I have been 'thinking about it quite seriously all night and have decided that now is the time for me to ask her to go steady. She's a nice girl and we could manage on her present allowance. And then people say: Where is modern chivalry? It is the means by which the male sex of our species can enjoy himself and still have -time and money to spend with the boys. P. Sheehan, 12G5. SCHOOL SPIRIT OR, RATHER, THE LACK OF IT The question of school spirit arises frequent- ly, not only in my school but also in many others. It is rather difficult to pinpoint the answer to school spirit, for different individu- als have their own viewpoints according to their own principles. Some people believe that if one's athletic card is all punctured with holes after the football season, he has done his share of expressing his spirit for the Year. Similarly, at other games one may spend many nights cheering at the top of his lungs. But is this really school spirit? Yet, certainly, those characters who have only disparaging remarks for the game contribute even less to the morale of the players and to achieving a winning score. Often one hears comments like: Look at Jane, she's in the Triune, on the all-star bas- ketball team, class teams, cheerleading here and running a race there - what popularity! What school spirit! But is this school spirit? Probably poor Jane is so run down and rushed that she has had no time to realize what she is doing, how much she has accomplished, and what she is doing it for. And when it comes to the point where she is on a drive to be top- notch in every club possible for the sake of popularity or some odd marks in some subject, it seems to me that Jane has taken the wrong fork in 'the road. Instead of developing a strong school spirit, I would say she was harming it by hogging all the positions to herself. Envy never did help any mutual un- derstanding. But, on the other hand, the in- troverts who pass their years through school without leaving any trace of existence except their photographs in the school magazine are contributing neither to the school itself nor to its spirit. If it were only possible to mod- erate these two extremes and divide the extra- curricular activities fairly among the students, a stronger united body could be created which could be used as a base for building school spirit which, through 'traditions in the later years, could be communicated to the students who would follow us here. Why does school spirit decline? Here are some quotations from students: This school is nothing like it used to be. Is that all the students they had 'trying out for the show? and Why can't we have a modern ballet class? Aren t there enough students willing to join? How come there were so few candidates for the Triune ? It is difficult to find an answer to all these questions, but after some 'thought I came to the conclusion that they all rotate around school spirit. Maybe it is this too- fast-moving twentieth century that is compet- ing with the school schedule? Or can it be the new teen-age freedom that is setting us apart from our nucleus? Or perhaps it is only that the school is dealing with a spiritless, unambitious bunch of kids with no school in- terests. I rather doubt that the last is the answer. Personally, I think that school spirit ought to -be something much deeper, based on pride, respect, and faith in our school and its aims. Besides furnishing talents and supporting sports, one should try to keep one's school free from disparaging remarks and rumours so that one can be proud of its name. How school spirit can be mended with a body of 2,000 students is beyond me. However, I do believe that the lack of concern over this mat- ter can one day result in poor moral standards as well as a hindrance to our education. Mai1'o Leibur, 12G1. SONNET The parting was not sad, but, to me, sweet: Refreshing to my rut-bewearied soul, Freeing it 'till I again felt whole, A person in myself, distinctly m-e. Freedom is my wish - to soar above Borne by cool, refreshing winds on high, No more to live the formed-by-habi-t lie! Renewed at last, forever free from love! It's not to say, my friend, that love of old Is poisoned now for evermore to hate - But I've been chained, not freed by you of late, And life is deadened soon by love grown cold. No longer prisoners of passion, we Shall stand alone, grow taller, and be free! Karen Howard, 13G1. .IULIET SPEAKS Come, my love, let us peer together through the dark centuries, blow gently away the sil- ver, curling mists with your ghostly breath. Far back: let us go far through -the dead, dusty years -to the single shaft of light that marks our existence upon the earth. See! There lie the tender, long-neglected, fragile dreams of mortals' hope. We dreamed these dreams once, you and Ig they are the delicate treasures of our love: their hopefulness has bound us to- gether forever. It is of hopefulness that I would speak to you tonight, my soul's dearest. CHow innocent, how terribly hopeful is love when you are very youngll Look, Love, can you see in those peaceful, sleeping dreams, the happiness we hoped for? We longed for worldly joys: the peace of passion quenched, a contented life on earth, children to share our joy and bear our name and, most of all, my dearest, for the sweetness of our love to exist for all our lives. Ah, Love, did you not long as did I to call back across the shadow-barrier of Death to console our weeping parents? The tears of our mothers were foolish, but mortals cannot listen and be comforted! Our parents thought our death a tragedy. How little they knew of Truth . . . for surely the real tragedy is to grow too old for love, too old for anything but death, and then to do nothing but await death. We would have aged, year by year, black hair greying, growing whiteg bodies stooping, growing frail. Then would we still have loved? Perhaps, with children to reflect our love, but the passion surely would have died. We would have grown bitter and hated the hopes of our youth. The mortal hopes were idealistic, they could not have led to happiness in a world full of growing old. Therein lay our tragedy: our hopes did not allow us to be contented with less than perfect, enduring passion - for us there could never be true satisfaction. Was i-t not better, then, to die? For we are young and beautiful and passionate forever! We were not meant for contentment, you and I: for us there is nothing but to pursue our love - and for us, this is everything. Softly, Love, let the mists float again into place, or we shall soon grow sadg let us mock no more the dreams of our innocence. Our happiness is perfect and eternal, because as children we dared to hope. And yet, dear Romeo, when we see Them in Their contentment, is there never a pang, a twinge, of regret and longing? They wear peace like a golden garment, and we are cloth- ed forever in a red flame of inescapable pas- sion: we are doomed to a restless roaming of Eetrnity, clothed in passion. Sometimes at night, when the sweet wind whispers cold around me and passion does not warm my soul, I look ahead into Eternity . . . and Eternity seems very long .... Karen Howard, 13G1. TOP O' THE MORNIN' TO YOU I am three-fourths English, and one-fourth Irish, on my mother's side, with a shake of Spanish. The unhappy non-Irishman may laugh derisively at this small amount of Irish blood, but he had better be careful. One- quarter chile powder added to a meal m.ay not look formidable, -but sure'n begorra you know that it's there! My good old Irish ancestors thought that ,twas the least they could do, after leavin' that beloved isle for such a cow- ardly reason as hunger, to plant the hatreds of their countrymen in wild Ontario. They carried their feud with the English over the ocean with them and nurtured it well. Of course, they could marry English Canadians. But end that hallowed feud? Never! As a result, the 'tormented descendants of these Irish-English alliances are continually at war within themselves. How would you like to be Irish and English, and know that the Irish in you has never made peace with the English? Ouch! The Irish are always fighting. The southern Irish hate the English and the Protestants, the northern Irish hate the English and the Catho- lics. If you ever have an Irish potato, look at both ends of it: there is a face at each end. ignoring the other. That is because the poor potato can't stand itself. My mother is always saying that one of us is as Irish as Pat Murphy's pig . Agreed, Pat Murphy is Irish. But I have always won- dered, how do you know the pig is? Apparent- ly the Irish have a language all their own, which is inherited by their descendants, no matter how thin the green family tie is, It would be quite usual for a person, who has a cup or so of emerald blood running through his veins, to declare: No, I'm not leavin', but I'll be right back. St. Patrick's is a wonderful day. It is the only day on which everyone has lthe intelligence to say that he is Irish. After all, there really isn't any better race. Except the English. There, that is my problem.: I'm always arguing with myself. However, since I am Irish today, I'll fight on the Irish side. Have you ever considered that the Irish have played a prominent part in history? Essex was beheaded, Chicago burnt down, and the Do- minion of Canada was formed. Also, because of the Irish, we have Irish stew and St. Pat- rick's dayg Shaw, the Irish potato, the Irish pig, and Danny Boy g the Irish jig, the sham- rock, and me. Elizabeth Toon, 13G5. FISHERMAIVS LUCK I had been fishing since dawn, using every- thing from live frogs to weedless spoons with bacon rind, in a futile attempt to hook that big one I had promised my father. Cast after cast brought in nothing but bait. After one more fruitless attempt, I picked up the oars with disgust and started back for the lodge: then I saw a small cove partially choked with weeds. It was protected on both sides by mag- nificent trees that kept out the sun's burning rays. Just one more try, I said to myself as I rowed to the most promising spot I had seen all summer. Out of my tackle box came my favourite jitterbug. There was a swish of line as the lure shot through the air to a clear spot in the tangle of weeds. Hopefully I retrieved my lure. No luck. But, as I pulled the line out of the water, I noticed two jitterbugs where one had been. Looking up in the direc- tion in which I had cast, much to my surprise I saw it - a young thing about 17 years old, fidgeting with a reel. Good morning, she sang before I could find my tongue. Hi, I'll be over in a minute, I mumbled awkwardly. I rowed over in such a hurry that I felt that the squirrel Watching me was laugh- ing instead of chattering. As I jumped ashore, I noticed that she was wearing the shortest of short shorts and a matching upper half, or whatever it is supposed to be called. She had blonde hair and light blue eyes that made me Wonder why I had been wasting all fishing elsewhere. my time She beat me to the draw by asking: Would you help me fix this? pointing at the reel which had a fantastic backlash. Sure, I stu-ttered. Anybody else, I would have 'told to see Indian Charlie, the guide at the lodge, especially with such a hopeless tangle. I worked the best I could, with one eye on the job and the other on her. She bab- bled endlessly about little nothings, and when I finally finished the mess, instead of suggest- ing that we go to the lodge for breakfast, I said: Would you like some casting lessons from a professional, Miss ahhh-? Alice, she answered sweetly. Reading my thoughts, she said: I came to the lodge last night. Charlie told me that your name is Mike - isn't it? Yes, I mumbled, looking more stupid than amazed. After having recovered from the shock, I started the first lesson. Now watch, I said, bring your rod 'to ten o'clock position with the lure about six inches from the tip ofthe rod. Then snap the rod to twelve o'clock position and forward again to ten o'clock posi- tion, releasing the line when you reach that point. After several attempts, strangely enough, she was casting better than I ever could. De- spite the fact that fish do not bite when the day gets warmer, I suggested that we go fish- ing for a little while just to give her a chance to put her new skill to use. Many hours later, when we finally pulled into the boathouse, I hea1'd the lodge owner yell: Hey, Charlie, where is that Alice girl? Back hollered Charlie: This morning early, she say she go out to catch somebody. John Dubbeldam, 13G4. i 1 P E 1. QA :ic-3 'ISNQ UQK X ,. i f ' Q me -1-' f f -1' G . ,, ll.

J f A Clubs and Social ALICE HORZELENBERG, Editor. Clubs WESTDALE BADMINTON CLUB After losing the title of Hamilton and Dis- trict Badminton Champions, Westdale's gyms became full of hard working students. Their aim was to once again bring back the cup to Westdale. The teacher advisors were Mr. Pounder for the Seniors and Mrs. Sheridan for the Juniors. The executive was: Gail Appleford as presi- dent, and Jill Grandfield as secretary-treas- urer. This year there were 35 active members in the club. The Juniors consisted mainly of Grade Tens, the Seniors ranged from Grades Eleven to Thirteen. Two friendly tournaments were played dur- ing the year, one against Waterdown, the other against Hill Park. This year, Westdale will play host to the last event of the year. The results will be too late to be published, but We would like to wish the team the best of luck. RED CROSS This year the Junior Red Cross received a contribution from the Grade 11, 12 and 13 students from their trip to Mediscope. Class contributions increased considerably, approxi- mately 50 percent over last year. From these contributions and more, the Red Cross pur- chased clothing in the early Winter for many needy children. This money will also be used to send 10 children to a summer camp. Last year two new activities were introduc- ed, the teacher-student basketball game and visits to sick children in the hospital. This year they were both carried on successfully. The proceeds from the basketball game were donated to the World Refugee Fund. On the Whole, this was a very successful year for the Junior Red Cross. Our executive this year was: Presiden-t, Judy Wheelerg vice-president, Joyce Walker, secre- tary, Gail Mayall, treasurer, Norma Klapman, ASTRONOMY CLUB The Astronomy Club, which was organized for the first time this year, is one of the most educational clubs that has ever been formed in our school. The members did actual re- search as well as studying other methods of learning astronomy. After interesting some influential people with their aims, they were allowed to visit McMaster Universi-ty. There they heard speakers inside and outside of the school talk on topics ranging from measuring astronomical distances to life on other planets. On account of the knowledge possessed by a few of the members, others learned and dis- cussed matters which would leave many dumb- founded. These discussions helped -to make the meetings interesting and educational. All the members feel very indebted to Mr. Reid who took time out from his evenings to be the representativ as well as a mobile in- formation desk. We hope that the Westdale Astronomy Club will be able to continue next year and that it will be as successful as it was this year. CHOIR The choir is a true asset to our school. This year about 60 students, juniors and seniors, combined to make the choir as successful as possible. They sang at the annual commence- ment and, as usual, they did very well. They also sang at a few of our assemblies and were invited to sing at one of Hill Park's assem- blies. The choir helped as a chorus in the production of this year's operetta, Babes in Toyland . All practices were held in the music room on Tuesdays under the leadership of Mr. Roberts. Our only regret is that so very few boys show interest in the choir. With such a great enrollment of students in Westdale, we should have a choir at least twice the size it is now! MUSIC FOR MODERNS CLUB During the early stages of this school year, a new activity was born within the learned halls of Wes-tdale Collegiate. I refer to the Music for Moderns Club which was enthusi- astically accepted by many a lover of jazz . Under normal circumstances, the club met once a week, during the noon hour, to listen to and discuss the works of such world-re- nowned musicians as Dave Brubeck, Count Basie, Duke Wellington, Ahmad Jamal, etc. With the capable assistance of those members of the club who were technically educated in the musical arts, the club was able to develop a finer appreciation of modern and progressive jazz . A numberof excursions have been made to reputable jazz joints by the club members, to the apparent enjoyment of all. One such establishment is the House of Hombourg in Toronto, which has been graced with the pres- ence of the Music for Moderns Club. The club's first executive included Bruce Miller as president, Judy Blake as vice-presi- dent, Karen Ernshaw as secretary, and John Finlay as chairman of the Programme Commit- tee. Mr. D. Lowden acted as moderator. With these five people as directing influ- ences, it may be assured that the club was very much a success. Let us hope that the Music for Moderns Club will continue to exist in future years, and bring to its members a finer realization and appreciation of jazz music. CHESS CLUB For our Chess Club, this has certainly been the most successful year ever. Besides the regular meetings which commenced in Septem- ber, classes on How to Play Chess were also held. Among the ardent students was even one of Westdale's teachers, Miss Dixon. Like Miss Dixon, everyone else did extremely well, and when the classes ended most promising results had been achieved. The membership of the club, too, has risen to an all-time high with 25 paying members and one honorary member. Every Tuesday and Thursday at noon, in Room 317, Westdale's zealous mental acrobats tried to better their style. Many exciting competitions were car- ried out and the achievemen-ts were colossal. On January 20, the first tournament of the year was held in Westdale, against Ancaster High School. Doughnuts and milk were served, and after a pleasant hour and a half period the score was totalled up. What can better prove just how much our club has improved than the final result: Ancaster 18, Westdale 43? The return match was played in Ancaster on February 5. It was another smashing vic- tory for Westdale: Ancaster 16, Westdale 332. Our executive this year consisted of: Teach- er-advisor, Mr. Cooperg president, Fred Neu- mann, treasurer, Karen Howard. I. S. C. F. The Inter-School Christian Fellowship con- tinued its good work by having another suc- cessful year. This year's executive was: Spon- sor, Mr. Shanling president, Charlotte Horn- ingg vice-president, Art Petrieg secretary, Karen Girtg treasurer, Nelson Lemon, social convenor, Lyn Van Loong publicity, Dave Bryer. About 25 students met regularly in Room 401 on Mondays at 12:30. In order to carry out their theme: To Know Christ and Make Him Known , the group studied passages from St. John under the head- ing The Game of Life . Special speakers, films and quizzes were also included. In Jan- uary, a questionnaire was sent out to present and previous members in order to obtain sug- gestions to improve the club. One thing that almost everyone commented on was the piano, and it is hoped that some improvement can be made in the near future. A number of topics for discussion were also suggested and three meetings were devoted to these requests. Early in the fall a wiener roast for the new- comers to the club was held. Other socials in- cluded a gym party and a bowling party. The first Intermediate Assembly was sponsored by the I. S. C. F. and the Rev. MacLennan was guest speaker. In April, the I, S. C. F. choir went to the Canadian National Institute for the Blind for an Easter carol service. The executive hopes that next year more students will come out to share the good times and the fellowship so that the attendance may be doubled or tripled. DEBATING CLUB The 1959-60 school year saw the sixth year of operation for the Westdale Debating Club. Every Thursday about 10 faithful members turned out to discuss topics ranging from Na- tional Defence to Should Teenagers Go Steady? This year no debates were carried on with other schools. The executive, under the capable leadership of Mr, Pearce, consisted of: Bill Van Gorder, presidentg Brian Shien, vice-presidentg and Heather Leibow, secretary. We hope that next year more students will take an interest in the Debating Club and that it will be more suc- cessful than it was this year.

To pass this exam- ination they must be able to receive six words per minu-te,g send a simple sentence and know a few basic procedures. If they are success- ful, a S10 bonus is awarded to them. They are also taught the fundamental procedures for operating the wireless and line sets. During their training, the maintenance and use under operational difficulties of the instruments and the correct voice procedures are stressed. RIFLE TEAM, 1959-60 Westdale has always been considered the top cadet rifle team in Canada. The results of the past year show that Westdale has main- tained this excellent reputation. There are two phases in cadet sooting: the basic type is the indoor small bore, .22 inch. The second type, which usually com.es after indoor, is the large bore .303 inch outdoor shooting. The new rifleman must have the basic fundamentals from the indoor type be- fore he tries outdoor. Last year, the most important indoor com- petition was the Royal Military College fR.M. CJ match. Over 185 teams from Canada com- peted for the trophy. A team consists of 10 riflemen, each firing 10 shots. Westdale en- tered two teams. The first team. shot mag- nificently, scoring a 99.1 average to win first place. Our second team scored 97.8, placing third. Members of the winning team were: C. Begg, who scored a perfect 1005 I. Anderson, P. Bloch, J. Dove, K. Edwicker, M. Flynn, H. Kleiner, W. McRae, H. Sparks and P. Vrooman, all scoring 99's. The Dominion of Canada Rifle Association CD.C.R.A.l competition followed. This is the supreme test in small bore shooting. It is open to all Canadian teams. There are three sep- arate targets in this match, with each target scoring 100. Our first team scored 99.08 to win top spot out of 385 teams competing. High scorers in these matches were: K. Edwicker, M. Flynn, W. McRae and J. Rizzo, each scor- ing 100'sg B. Jost, B. Kain, H, Kleiner, C. Vroo- man and B. Evans shot 99'sg P. Vrooman, I. Anderson and C. Begg got 98's. High scorers for all three targets were: W. McRae with a perfect 300, H. Kleiner with 299, J, Rizzo and P. Vrooman scoring 294's. A greater competitive instinct and incentive are added to indoor shooting by various awards given for superior shooting, The Galer Hag- erty award is given to the cadet with the high- est. aggregate score from the D.C.R.A. and Youth of the Empire matches. W. McRae shot a perfect 400, but since he won it last year, H. Kleiner was awarded the prize with his excellent score of 399. Last year, 12 eager Westdalians made their way faithfully twice a week to the Winona Rifle Ranges to practice. Perseverance pays. and the results of the further matches soon told the story. Hundreds of Ontario riflemen converged on Winona for the annual Ontario Rifle Associa- tion match. Cash prizes were given and four prize lists are competed for: five rounds de- liberate at 200 yards, five rapid fire at 200 yards, and five deliberate at 300 yards. The aggregate score of these are taken for the four-th prize list. Top money winners were C. Begg and W. McRae with a lucky 5513 each. Other Westdale competitors dominated the first 10 places of each prize list. The Strathcona Match follows the O.R.A. competition, in which there are three age group teams. Upholding its reputation, Westdale placed first in groups B and C and second in the A group. Individual awards were given to C. Begg, P. Vrooman, W. McRae and R. Chiarot. One of the most important outdoor competi- tions is 'the Earl Roberts . No awards are given, but the honour to shoot it is generally greatly coveted. Teams throughout the British Empire competeg also, only two teams are al- lowed to shoot from each command. C. Begg, H. Kleiner, W. McRae and P. Vrooman were the marksmen, and B. Dearborn was the con- troller. Five shots are fired from 500 yards, then one shot at each range from 500 to 100 yards. This is very difficult as the rifleman must run 100 yards, lie down and shoot, all in 45 seconds. Next, five shots are fired at 200 yards rapid fire, and finally five shots at the difficult snap shooting. W. McRae scored a perfect 80. The others were close behind in the mid 70's. The ultimate in Cadet shooting is the annual Bisley 'trip to England. This is an all-expense paid trip with food, transportation and board all free. Last year four Westdale cadets quali- fied and had a wonderful holiday in England, Germay and Paris, France. The lucky four were: C. Begg, W. McRae, H. Kleiner and Mike Johnson. We are pleased to announce that Cadet Maj. Robert Dearborn has been officially named to the 1960 team. Major A, Bowes is the head coach, with Mr. Reavely and Mr. Hazel as assistant coaches. The captain is W. McRae. and J. Rizzo is the assistant captain. A dis- play of awards has been placed outside the library on the second floor to show the quality and quantity of the prizes of the team. SOCIAL STUDIES CLUB Every Monday night, the Social Studies Club met for the reviewing of film. These films, some in colour and others in black and White, took the members on tours around the world and provided them with valuable information concerning other countries. Many interesting films on Canada's past and future were also added for educational purposes. In the pro- gramme, the club tried to include historical pictures that would be of great assistance to history students. After the showing of the films, discussions were held on the merits of the films. Although the membership is not too great at the present, it is hoped that a lot of students will turn out in the future to view the films. The club feels indebted to Mr. Partridge, the teacher advisor, who patiently donated his room and his valuable time to the club. 1 4, --,- 'Mb BUGLE BAND This year, the Westdale Secondary School Cadet Corps Bugle Band is to be particularly commended for its Work. The band first paraded on November 11 for the Stelco Veterans, and it was a great success. As a reward, a trip to Toronto was organized and everyone present that night will agree that the hockey game was worth seeing. The band played in two auditoriums, where they were well received. Having been inspired in this way, the band now prepared for the St. Patrick's Day parade in Buffalo. That day, March 13, turned out to be clear and cold, but everyone gave everything they had and made the band the smartest looking unit on parade. Much credit must go to the band officers, es- pecially Band-Maj. Rich. Seagar, and Sergeants Stan Nickle and Doug Knowles, for making the trip possible. Mr. Lowden is to be thanked for giving up his time in coming out and keep- ing the practices running smoothly. ,333 X --n... ,.,, . -.-,4,:F' , ' ' 1 , . g.-:s-. .. :ms , .,:,, ' V-Q-wb-X , - -Q . , 3 'gsm C fra 1 v 'X 5 vt x 'www Eg. 323' ay' N 9 1 .... xi , 1-e+svw+Q?ZE.'5Qi ' ' we S E R V E S Y O U : . - - 'X , Lg, ,-I f :V .:,y5E..q.::,.:,::1:-:-. - . ,Kgs ,il -' E':iI1' 5 : , t ' ' g- The swordsmiths of the Middle Ages 1 Q, fashioned their finest blades from steel. ..

I remember When Sadie Hawkins Day was a speshul event, for the gals anyways, and every- body got slick'd up real purty fur -the big nite. But gawrsh! Look what happun'd this year. None of the females had combed their hair, or even bothered to crawl out of their long, black underwears. And the fellas shore Weren't much better. They came at a speshul dance wifout even shaving! Everybody was so confoosed, what with wearin' them dark glasses and all, that they didn't even know what was people, and what was animals. They called everybody cat and they even got confoosed and called the gurls like man or chick . Some of 'um even sat right down in the middle of the floor and talk'd wif their legs all folded under them somehows. Just imagun! Land sakes, shore was lucky Marryin' Sam and some of the other Dogpatch folks was thar, 'cause otherwise I'd a felt real pecooliar. Yes- sir, it Was a diff'runt kind of Sadie Hawkins Day all right. GRADUATES' DANCE After the commencement exercises on Fri- day, November 6, the graduates of 1959 were treated to their last dance at Westdale. The gym was appropriately decorated in green and gold, with the band sitting at one end under a canopy of those famous-colours. Added to this, the gorgeous hues of the gowns, and the smiles of the victorious, truly made a perfect picture of a dance the graduates will remem- ber forever. ANNUAL PROM Westdale's annual prom, the Bal d'Amour, was held this year in the new gym. After pass- ing down the receiving line, which consisted of Dr. and Mrs. Price, Dr. and Mrs. Lambe, Colonel and Mrs. McQueen, Margot Banting, Terry Wilson, John Nowacki, Mr. and Mrs. Hodd, the first thing they noticed was the huge revolving centrepiece. On it was Cupid in a heart, surrounded by flowers with strings of hearts extending out from it. One corner of the dance floor was set up as a lounge for tired teachers and students. Wonderful music was provided by Stan Hargot and his orchestra as couples danced from nine till one, only to be pleasantly interrupted to eat. The food was served in the boys' old gym. FROSTY FROLIC The annual Christmas semi-formal, the Frosty Frolic, was held on December 12. Danc- ing was from nine to eleven-thirty to the de- lightful music of Stan Hargot. Decorating the new gym were a giant snowman and delicate snowflakes. On either side of the snowman stood gaily-lighted Christmas trees. An at- mosphere of gaiety and good cheer prevailed that successfully opened the Christmas season. Our thanks to John Nowacki and his com- mittee for having done their job so well. TEA DANCES Two tea dances were held this year. The first, given to honour the Senior football team on winning the H.I.A.C. championship, took place in the old gym. After some delay, due to a lack of music, dancing got under way. The dance, which was very well attended, was a fitting tribute to our victorious team. This year the Triune Student Council spon- sored a tea dance to which admission was one toy, to be given to a needy child. Operation Santa Claus was successful in collecting many toys which made Christmas happier for many unfortunate children. THE CHRISTMAS SHOW On December 22, the last day of the term, the Drama and Music Committee presented the annual Christmas Show. To start off, Mairo Leibur read the 'Christmas story from the Bible, with several breaks in which appropria-te hymns were sung. Next came Mike Beatnick Sherman to give us his rendition of The Night Before Christmas . Of course, no Christmas show is complete without Santa Claus, and al- though ours looked a little thin, he managed to liven up the show with one or two things not in the script. At Santa's request, Arlene Jennings told us of Christmas in Killarney , and then came the opening of that famous sack. Gifts were presented to Mr. Russell and Mr .Cooper, and then Saint Nick bade us adieu. Colonel McQueen, not to be outdone, also had two gifts. Class 13G4 was back in assembly and the first term was finished at the end of the show. Our thanks to Mairo Leibur and her com- mittee for a job well done. OPERETTA - BABES IN TOYLAND Westdale is again proud to present a great production in May, called Babes in Toyland . It is a delightful fantasy concerning the people of Mother Goose Land and will be accompanied by the school orchestra to the music of Victor Herbert. Contrary Mary, portrayed by Arlene Jen- nings, is one of the Widow Piper's CMarlene Turkstral 14 children who, being in love with Alan CRon Paluckb is forced to marry the wicked, miserly uncle Barnaby CMark State? of Alan and Jane. At the same time, a second romance between Tom CTim Woodsl, the eldest son of the Widow, and Jane CSue Fordj the sister of Alan, finds difficulty in keeping safe from old Barnaby's greedy grasp. Hilda CAlice Horzelenbergj, the kindly, help- ful m.aid of the Piper's household, and a re- nowned cast from the Fairy Tales , includ- ing Jack and Jill, Little Bo Peep, Red Riding Hood, Miss Muffet, and Tomzny Tucker, cast a spell of magic and lures our imagination to Make Believe . As the operetta develops, Alan and Jane are lost in the dense, gloomy Spider Forest where all hope of escaping the evils of the forest are in vain. Alan, however, releases a moth from a spider's web and, in gratitude, the enchanting Fairy Queen CJoan Marshallb sends the Brown Bear CMarilee Stevensj to save the children from the Giant Spider CLinda Thompsonb. The second act takes us to the colourful, gay Toyland where the Master Toymaker CTerry Woods? and his toy shop helpers wind up the plot with and they loved happily ever after . Since, at this time of the year, the produc- tion is only in the developing stage and hours of hard work still have to be done, we wish the operetta the greatest success and we hope that it will uphold the reputation acquired with operettas produced in the past years. MR. X's TALENT SHOW On January 24, Mr. X's Talent Show was pre- sented in the auditorium. For the nominal fee of 15c, one could view an equivalent to the major shows of today's theatre, chorus line and all. The entertainment included a French chanteuse, a modern ballet, a charleston and a piano duet, to mention just a few. The win- ners, chosen by an expert panel of judges, were: Barbara Bryant, who entranced us all with her excellent monologue, and the Off- Beats , a small band who walked off with sec- ond place mainly because of the Off-Beat Blues , an original number composed by the leader, Stew. Richardson. This was an excel- lent venture, and all those who participated have a right to our praise. They earned it. BABES IN TOYLAND gafmfcm .ldadagalm FURS LTD.

With it we hope your interest we have won. Margaret is the girl with the wit and charm, Rosemarie and Sandra walk arm. in arm. Jerry always comes to class rather late, Annette's the girl who lost all that weight. Brian is noisy but quite petite While Jim could go on talking for more than a week. Marklyn and Judy are the best of pals, Stan K. is the boy who flirts with the gals. Kathy's the gal with discoloured hair, Bonnie at Terry - she constantly stares. Donna's the girl who enjoys cracking knuckles, Linda gives off with too many chuckles. Ross stands up and turns very red, Carol sometimes wishes she had stayed in bed. Sheila's the gal that gets all our money, Judy is sweet, like sugar and honey. Pete is the boy who always looks neat, Richard is always asleep at his seat. Jazz is for Freddy, he's sure a cool cat, Louise is the girl who jumps at sight of a rat. Johanne was the captain of our basketball team, At every game she let off more and more steam. Alan's the boy with all the smiles, Arnold is shy but just our style. Norman's the boy who sits in the rear, Mike is the guy who is never here. Stan R. is the six-footer who has a famous brother, Sharon, the shy one, acts like a mother. Andres loves, but loves to play chess, Pat the lazy one loves to res-t. George is the fellow who works hard at Pen. Tom looks as strong as a thousand men. John is the guy who gets all the germs, Bob slithers around like a worm. David, the boy with the lovely fair hair, At the girls he always does stare, We're for Mr. McKnight, We are his pure delight. We're a class of lots of fun, The one and only 9:3:1. 9:3:2 SONG fSung to the tune of Waltzing Matilda l Verse 1: Once a Joyous Laiman walked along a Little Hill, He was a teacher from good ol' Westdaleg And he thought as he Studd under the shade of two old Mills. We've got a problem-class we're ready to kill. Chorus 1- 9-2-, 9-3-2-, What shall we do with 9 - 3 - 2? Well, we'll give them fifty words and five nights' detention, That ought to settle class 9:3:2! Verse 2: Then, up jumped the class reps: Jane and .,......Davey..Littleg Rick Thode began to Howell like a Wolfe, Carolyn turned on the Fawcett and cried three Wells of Watertsl, And Lesley boiled over with steaming words. Chorus 2- Repeat chorus for first three lines, fourth line, Don't we deserve such treatment as this?? Verse 3: In the class Gibson boxed with little Davey Hassell, Susan, Pat and Erika sang Karols down the halls: Joan and Wilma formed a, Mountainous blockade, and They caught Dave Murrell Wrighting with a Longstaff on the walls. Chorus 3- Same as Chorus 2. Verse 4: In geography ins-tead of studying, the Sutherlands, Mike and Lee discussed how Peter Bolesg And in French class a gargon by the name of Dave Was trying to see how far chalk rolls. Chorus 4- Same as Chorus Verse 5: To change the verdict came our Miss Harper And Russelled all her class into Room 215. Now you've reaped what you sowed, just as I moralized, Yet I'll Speed to Mr. Bell and perhaps we'll be surprised! Chorus 5- Same three lines, fourth line, Or is it Miss Harper to the rescue again? Verse 6: In strode Miss Harper with a countenace of pure delight, Followed by her faithful Dennis and Dave M. If you promise to be good, I got you out of that one. Well, kids, she shouted 'We've won again'! Final Chorus- 9 - 3 - 2, 9 - 3 - 2, That was the reformation of 9-3-2: Now we're all perfect angels, not one word do we pass by, Well, anyway - I - er - guess we - uh - try??!! CLASS POEM 9 :3:5 One class in Grade nine is all full of girls, Big ones and small ones, with heads full of curls, The former Miss Standing has to contend, With thirty-four angels which on her depend. Some of the girls are really great pals, While the others are all terrific gals, A few are boy crazy, but all love to chase The opposite sex of -the human race. In the halls we're noisy and not very straight, And for classes we're sometimes really quite late. As a sports class, we don't have much pep, But in styles of dress we're all real hep. This is our class, numiber 9:3:5, Boy, we're the greatest - man alive. 9:3:7 Irene is our class rep, She's full of fun and full of pep. Cheri gives us a hand, And the parties she plans are really grand. Wayne Banting is a boy, Whose sense of humour we'd rather destroy. Gary thinks French is for the birds, And David Scholes has never a loss for words, Stephanie and Reggie are going strong, Christine Wiese does nothing wrong, Sheila, Jackie and Marilyn is our quiet one, But Rachel and Donna are lots of fun, Carol and Agnes are 'both very shy, While Bill Wigglesworth is almost five feet high. Jill Addis is known for her short shirts, Janice Gibson with boys always flirts, Janice McNaught is a friend to one and all, And when Jim's around we all have a ball. Ken and Jan would like to court, You should see Karen when she's wearing shorts. Jackie Wright is the doll of our whole room, Dick Biggar is the one that never shows gloom. Chris Basini likes to write, And sit beneath the bright moonlight, Hughanne Campbell when not chewing gum, Is paying fines for what she has done. Guy, Marty and Paul are very shy, But just the same they're our great guys. Annarosa likes to sing, Vicki Thomas has everything. David Paikin works to pass, Marlene Mino is a real sweet lass. Tall and handsome Mr. Stanley, As a teacher he's just dandy. This is our class, The class where all will pass - we hope! A BRIGHT NEW DAY WITH 938 The silence of the room was pierced as the tarnished knob of Room 131 turned slowly, guided by the hand of Mr. Hodd. Entering the room dazedly, he felt his way to the wall, hung his coat and hat upon the hook and seated himself. Shortly afterwards, Alex Grishko strode into the room, and with pride in his early arrival, fell inwto his desk. Sylvia Szeverenyi next ap- peared at the door and smartly took her seat. Presently Bob Tucker walked in, still striving to remember whether it was pronounced je suis or Gee swees . Walter Griffin and Jim Griffiths followed our Frenchless Frenchman, highly amused. Cheryl Brookson, Ingrid Habel and Jane and Sharon Mighton, our twins, all one happy group, babbled into the room, only to be silenced by a deadly glance from Mr. Hodd. John Proctor and Bob Scott, oblivious to everyone around them, were arguing viol- ently about the Crystallive content of corn flakes. Debbie Sheckter, Fern Stein and Elaine Vine shuffled into the room, engrossed in their favourite subject - talking! Peter Ivask, Jerry Rykman, Doug Cadman and Robin Griffin huddled together at the door, searching desperately for their homework, only to be readily dispersed by the whip of Mr. Hood. Beverley Montgomery, Annette Chert- koff and Marilyn Eyre came in and added their singing voices to the noise ofthe class. Alan McBride and Mike Cohen strode in, fol- lowed by David Bach differentiating between the psychological theories as presented by Freud and Donald Duck. In contrast to Dave's studious nature, come the frivolity of Christie Ackerman and Marnie Myers. Linda Stolman, class rep., waltzed in after them. Nick Back, Ken Inrig and Brian Short pattered into the room discussing the probabilities of the Dodgers winning the Stan- ley Cup. Brian Shein bounced in after them, composing subtle delicacies for his next lifter- ary masterpiece. Then Bill Leuchter entered this monumental establishment , followed by Heather Leibow to get -his homework. The Charles Little floated into the room sil- ently and took his seat. Stephen Snider fol- lowed Charles in, still vainly trying -to convince Charles that the joke was funny! Bryan Goto, a form of energy expressed in more noise, bounced in. Begging just one sheet of paper from Tommy Weisz, David Wise deafeningly blew into the room. Then Jerry Sprague dragged his feet in and prepared for his role in the comic play called School , The bell rang and silence fell upon the class as the Bible was to be read. Then the door opened and a freckled nose appeared through a crack. A small figure appeared. Mr. Hodd growled, the class laughed, Glen Richardson took his seat, the Bible was read and -the day began. 9:3:9 lst row: L. Ruhloff, A. Amis, B Harrop, M. Shekter, G, Wax- man, G. Perks, H.

Grant received a phone call from Danish Lone that a murder had disturbed her beauty rest. At 11:40 p.m, he gathered his two assistants Rocky Rick and Pug Doug, and set out to in- vestigate. At. 12:00 midnight they arrived and caught Susanne and John escaping by the back door. At 12:05 a.m. they we1'e taken to a me- dium-sized blob CM12 Partridge? lying on the rug that had taken all the strength out of Rae when she had cleaned it. At 12:15 a.m. all the people were lined up for questioning. Sus- picious looking characters came first. The English maid, Anne, had been in the kitchen preparing a meal for Robert T. Margaret and Judy were dancing at the time with Ron W's music. Bonnie's singing was accompanied by Gary W's accordion solo, while Marcia and Perle were quarreling about who should play the piano. Sharon and Sandra were busy draw- ing portraits of blushing Tom L. and intel- ligent Ron L. It couldn't have been Dave even though he did once almost strangle Peter. Helen and Gary V. were busy eyeing the moon while pixie Bev. stood watching, learning a lesson or two. .lean came late from an All- Star game and Mark kept busy telling people that his scar was not made by a female. It was discovered that Gordon was collecting silver and paintings and Bob ll. was exploring Africa ton the mapl. Studious .lim studied some figures whlle Carol and Linda threw words back and forth. Brian was still making confetti for Miss S. with the help of Tom C. Les was playing chess and winning steadily, which made Henry bored. Cheryl had not once left the Powder Room and Mary claimed she knew nothing of this. At 1:30 a.m. they were through with questioning but had no clue to the whereabouts of the murderer. At 1:40 a.m. they headed back to the station, ready to give up this mysterious case. Now I ask: Why would anyone want to dis- pose of a teacher? This story is fictitious, the names are real.

Jevin Ivan Rival's our historical brain And Bob Kottmeier at Comp stories is classed as the same. Our Barby Bryant's a real neat gal, And Dale Andrew is Barby's way-out pal. Pam Guzner is the gal with crazy hair-do, Suzanne Miller, the artist, makes up the third Sue. With Dave Fotheringham around, things are never a drag, Likewise Judy Pousette and Liemieg With them things don't lag. And iz-zat-zo Izso with his beat-type glasses. And Richard Snider, making shy with the lasses. Sherry Merden like gonesville-she's no hick, And' Cathy Boes a real cool chick. Tim Parsons-he's a way-out laddie, As for Mr. Bezaire-he's the eightiest form daddy. This was composed by Sue Freestone and friends, Hope the message has penetrated And like I mean this is the end.

WEST Hamilton And Mr. McKnight, we want you to know That we will remember your help Wherever we go. Westdale Secondary School, 1960. L'il Abner Yokum, Horrorpatch C10rG1l Mammy Yokum, Dogpatch, U.S.A. Dear Mamm.y: - Here ah is at last at Horrorpatch in West- dale Secondary School. Ah have bin attendin' classes at the home of the green and gold since September. Durin' mah stay, ah has met some purty odd characters, and ah is now goin' to tell yo about them. To do this, ah will give yo an idea of a typical day in Horrorpatch. Our meetin' place is numbered 103 and our school marm is Miss Hamilton. As soon as the bell rings, our daily contribution to the Red Cross is faithfully given by Barry Rosy Rosenblood. A heated feud then begins, with John Burgess, Lorne Levy an' Ken Sherman ferociously tossing words an' chairs at each other. All through Science period Alan Azulay and Keith Gross is workin' furiously while Brian Somer is rushin' to finish his La-tin homework. Next period our leader, J. Uubillatiionl T. Cornpone Tweedie struggles heroicly with his French. The chewin' tax, donated again by our kind friend Barry, is collected by Liz Grady, Horrorpatch tax collector. Half-way through French period, Stefania CStacyl Zayac opens 'wide the door to let Cyndy KTwinkletoesl Sauder an' her accomplice Lainey Vertlieb go clompin' across the classroom, squirtin' pens in hand .... An' now onto Latin, f. From the eyes of our dear Latin teacher, Gran'ma Sam Paterson an' Marnie Machin re- ceive fair speechless messages . Suddenly a hand am waved through the air, an Linda QTnoupl Lees proclaims convincedly that if troop isn't spelled troup, she am a monkey's uncle Cguess who am a monkey's unclell Carol CFinkieJ Finkelstein then begins her daily bat- tle with the language of the Romans Cthe Ro- mans should have kept itj, while Ted Pollock and Jackie Evans exchange homework an' winks. Garbage collectors, desk cleaning sup- erintendents, etc., Ron North and Stuart Rich- ardson begin their chores, while secretary Lenise Sweetlove does Mr. Devitt's figures Cmathematical, that isl. After this period, chock full of entertainment, the meetin' am adjourned for a lunch of Kickapoo Joy Juice and french fried schmeagle, with jellied schmoo for dessert. Classes start agin at 1:35 back at the ole meetin' room. Out in the halls, before the door of learning is opened, the local gab ses- sion takes place with Doreen Smith, Dzintra Reinis, Gail Charney and Ellen Verdun as the star participants. Miss Hamilton then opens the doah, an' cross-examines the Horrors as to jest who has bin foolin' with the blinds an' walkin' on top of the desks. John MacGilliv- ray, Roy Dulmagie, Paul Garrick an' Don Stuart sit there wif puzzled expressions on their faces. Durin' math period, all the boys wonder about the mysterious disappearance of Anne Cur- rier's black feed-bag, an' Mr. Styles' long point- er. Meanwhile, Sally Birkett and Carole Drake is conversin' in sign language beneath their desks. When the Geography room is clear Cteacher- freel, another type of feud - chalk throwin' this time, am begun by Messieurs Bob Bluns- don an' Tom Jennings. At the sound of the four o'clock bell, there am a wild stampede of Horrors, headin' towards the door Cthey jest must build wider doorsll, and so ends an event- ful day in Horrorpatch, Westdale. Your lovin' son, L'il Abner. P.S.-Give mah love to Daisy Mae. For - STAPLES lFor Any Staplerl - STAPLERS 8: TACKERS iFor Any Purposel - FASTENING DEVICES - REPAIRS -Call- Bossence 8. Co.

IOG4 NEWS This is the story of our class IOG4, Classes of this kind just aren't found anymore! Judy Bryant is a cute little lass, She's first on the list, also first in the class. Next is Norm McMenemy, our junior basket- ball star, While our beat'nik, Bob Halliday, plays ship- ping but doesn't get far. Judy Walls is a good friend of all, And helps our class to have a real ball. Ian Morrison, our Dennis the Menace bothers the girls, While Hughie Therien is accused of pinning up his curls. Noted for their long pony-tails are Janet and Kenley, And those purdy black and blue eyes belong to Don Lumley. Dianne'Smith just loves passing notes during class, And in French, Duke Pazaratz just doesn't pass. Little George's history notes are very well known, Proved by the fact that they're usually on loan . Larry Hirst chases the girls, but they run faster than he, And Diane Gowland enjoys any sport which she's eager to master. Gerhard Wissiac is our Austrian import, He's got plenty o' brains, and is a darn good sport. Suzanne and Rosemary have lovely brown eyes, But Carol Humphries has blonde hair and blue eyes. Hane MacLennan changes boy friends with the weather, While John and Steve also like -to play ship- ping together. Diane Cameron likes to read, But with her glasses she must lead. Roy Pollington is a dear, sweet boy, Whose sense of humour we'd rather destroy. Tom Reavley doesn't get along with Mr. McKnight . Whose Red Cross bottle isn't exactly light. Brian Fearnley is sometimes known to be shy, But all the same, he's quite a swell guy. Captain of our championship basketball team is Pat, But Kent Hodgson is intelligent, no doubt about that. Brenda, along with S. R. and J. M., for history comes late, While our boy Bernie and Mr. Lowden get along great. Sandee, yours truly, is our rep, She's sometimes in the doghouse, but full 0' pep! Colin Vrooman is our other rep, He and his trumpet get along fine, as yet. Last, but not least, a good pal of us all, Is our own Mr. Wornick, who comes running at our call, 10G5 One day Bill in his Wingfield special was speeding down Lieberman's lane and ploughed into MacDonald's barn. All of a sudden the Cowin the Barnsley chased the Tom cat right into Bryer's Rose bush. Meanwhile, back at Snider's hamBurger and Frankfurter stand Dave and Joyce were munching on Kreiger's crunchies before going to Somerville. Above in the sky a Seigel was flying by and landed on the church Speyer. A Gale came up and a Short Patterson of rain fell just as a train pulled into the Beattie station. A Porter car- ried the record player and records of Joyce and Carol into the Smith Hotel. As they filed into the sitting room they met Ron, Bob Dale, Eliz- abeth, Pauline and Grietje when Miss Crosbie finally arrived they were ready to start the class party. 10G8 There is a class in Westdale School That makes the bitter grind seem cool, For a daddy we've got a swell teacher named CJKH. And we, his kiddies, have blasts that are gay. There's a guy that's a blob, but we call him Sid, Occasionally he seems like a pretty good kid. And swinging the comb, We have Kookie - or Stu, Who keeps his eyes on Barb Simons too. In every class there's lovers as Well, Jerry wings Marian, Pam's in a spell. And what about Sharon, only time will tell, Sue's on the hook and Vicky as Well. Gary and Armas are boys that play ball, Yellin and Wosserman are the liveliest of all. Cathy and Mary are quiet, you see, But Elaine and Gail make up the deficiency. Mort won the race for top place in our class, But Murray and Jim didn't have enough has. John and Jack go with the best, While Elke and Gerret study with zest. Lison asks silly questions in geography And Myrna is always saying - Who, me? Kerren and Sandy never seem bored, While intercepting notes from Joe and Ward. Gary Smith's the red-head of our class, And Lois has the makings of a fair young lass. These are the kids that really rate, Will 1960-61 find us again in 10G8? 10C2 Sue Burden is our rep, She's full of fun and full of pep. Daun Markle is our gal And her smile makes her everyone's pal. Sharon Goskgarian is our classroom joke, And fun at everyone she likes to poke. Gail Castle - captain of basketball, Has the advantage of- being tall, Carolyn Gould, when not chewing gum, Is paying fines for what she has done. Trina Lewis has the marks And comes to school to be a shark. Here in body, but not in mind, That's .Ian Wallace, most of the time. Donna Robertson has beautiful brown hair, And few minutes of her time to spare. As for Ina Batty, we'll make this bet, Chin up, girl, you'll get him yet. Gwen Milson does nothing wrong, Because she's always got her nose to the ground. Helen McPetrie sure is a swell gal, And Wasilewski - work fascinates herg She could sit and look at it all day. Gezine Albers - what she likes is baking, And at school, top marks she is taking. Arlene McFarland, as her friends would say, To do without boys is just her way. Bev Taylor is liked by the guys, With curly hair and big blue eyes. .Ioan Cole is the girl Who always seems to be in a swirl. Kathy Matthews is a friend to all, And when she's around we all have a ball. Jane Neil now sits in the right row, There to enjoy Jan's radio. Barb Lane and Jean Fletcher have one thing the same - They both hate one subject - English by name Bertha McArthur's notes are well known, Proved by the fact that fthey're often on loan Connie Cornell, never found talking Is found in the hall quite often while walking. Sandra Gibson likes P. T., it's plain to see, But still doesn't know what she's going to be Josephine Drong is the quiet type, as you know Until the bell rings and it's time to go. Liz Nelson is a very smart chick, And when around the boys she starts to click Donna Ott is our class squirt, But, turned on the loose, just Watch her flirt Kyn Kirby likes a boy named Terry, When he is near her, she really goes starry Well, that's our class, covering all- Some are short, and some are tall, Some are great, some not so bad: Most are crazy over some lad. But in all, we play the game, As long as Mr. Linton can keep us tame. GOSSIP - 10C3 Our class if we numbered Are thirty-three girls, With laughing eyes And shining curls. Mr. Bogle is the only man, And every one of us is his fan. To begin: We'll start with Gail who's very quiet, Then comes Nina, she's a riot. Right now Joanie goes with Pete, Sharon and Don as a team can't be beat. One of our Sandras dyed her hair red, Both Joyce and Sylvia have their own Fred Marie, we hear, goes with Harry, Lil and Johnny plan to marry. Both our Nancys go with boys, Sharron in Tommy finds her joys. Linda's our captain of volleyball, While Lois sees her dream in the hall. There are two Marilyns, both short and sweet, .Iudy, that special guy still wants to meet. In seeing all our Barbs are smart, We hope Dave and Carol never part. Three more Sandys, all go steady, But Marg. and Hanna just aren't ready. Shirley and Bill go together, Charla's at school, whatever the weather. Carol CKU of course still likes Mike, What guy has Arlene now got in sight? Carol's CMD the Einstein in our class, And our Rochelle is sure to pass. Betty with Garth still goes around, When our class is together, we're Heaven- bound. You've read our names and met us all, The girls who dwell in the upper hall, Now here we end, and you must agree There are no nicer girls than in 10G3.

Our first clown is a true hair-raiser- Soprano-voiced Randy is really a bass-er, Linda without John? That is unthinkable! Bernie is German - is quite capable. Out for Triune goes our Gail., Mary's the girl the boys all hail, Without Jane you rarely will find her And where that three are, Marlene is too. Teddy has quite a musical moo . Beate her name with two accents does spell To get people to pronounce it well. Nan the talker was kicked out of classes About which Jerry C still laughs. Marg is tall and Nancy's small, But both these girls are liked by all. Tilly and M. Bowes, oh! what a pair!

You should watch Jerry L. at 3:30 go Cto M. Feej. Jimmy without his comb is quite helpless, Just imagine Davie penniless! Carolyn and Vivian are very good pals, Elaine and Judy M. are the quietest gals. Carol thinks up things by the metre. The last on our list is the one and only Peter 11G2 CLASS NEWS We of the class of 11G2 Think we're just great - don't you? Grant Ballantyne starts the list of our class: In the halls he talks to many a lass. Brigette Boehner is the brain of the classg She need not worry, she's going to pass. Ruth Harris is going steady with Dave, Their lives with joy they're sure to pave. Ann Shutler and Brenda, they roam the halls, But Ann's in a dither when Barry calls. Jim Hummelen's as handsome as handsome can beg He's our next Elvis fugh, says hew. Jean Kerr is our own class witg She skips classes and gets away with it. Elinor L-entz is our pretty blonde star, With her Ian she will surely go far. Sue Long is Westdale's Teen Queen, With Derek she is often seen, Manuell, Hamilton and Bannatyne are brains: In physics they're Mr. Simpson's pains. McNeil and Shrubsall on girls are keen, But then we guess they're typical teens. Joan and Bonnie are really sweetg In looks and personality they can't be beat. Nola and Ingrid are the best of friends: We wonder where their friendship ends. Dianne Perkins has a guiding star: He's from Cathedral, they're sure to go far.

Van Gorder is smart, so it's been statedg Is there a girl he hasn't dated? Sandy Vennor wears Bob's ring, She's his queen and he's her king. For Weil and his comb to be parted is rareg It's always there, ready to comb his hair. Glover and Mr, Cooper are real good friends: But History's 'where their friendship ends. Barbarla's dish is a boy from Queen'sg He's the subject in all her dreams. Marie is going steady with Billy By the looks of things, she always will. Mr .Fraser's the head of this gang, Without us, his life would have no tang. 11G6 FROM BEATSVILLE Like the scene comes through at Paul's pad, when five cool cats come boppin' down the boulevard. Ken and Kathy, Dave and Nancy, and good ol' Greggles. Gazing through the peep-hole, they spied three crazy beatnicks: Karen, Donna and Sonny. Ploughing through the smoke-filled atmosphere, they are hit by -the sounds of some real' swingin' cats making with the music. While Sealey blows a cool note on the trumpet, Clarkson on the piano, makes a discord as Langs on the saxophone wets his Reed. Sure enough, Anderson is beat- ing on the bongos, howling at Adamson who is making an attempt to croon the blues. Meanwhile, at that candle-lit table in the corner, Levy is spouting some real way-out poetry to Muir who is sipping Campbell's soup with a cool Chick named Dagg. Out in the middle of the floor the three Suzie-Q's are kicking up their heels in a State of frenzy as Duval, the fuzzy stands by in his new Brown, Taylored suit scratching his head in wonder. Man, -this crowd is really hep. There is Tabor in new lceret with a 12-inch paint brush daubing an abstract of Jehnke and Griffiths as Elsary mumbles to Josy through his tapered goatee that he is dying for a can- cer-stick . Suddenly in glides Miss Scully and orders some expresso coffee from Curran!! Man, like this is the beginning of Ensville!! Marg Adamson and Dee Anderson. CLASS 11G7 Why do the teachers scream and cry? What makes Miss Crosbie say: My, my ? Why do all the teachers go grey?- 11G7's on the way! Pat, Anne, Joan and Jackie, says Mr, Devitt, are rather wacky . Perhaps if they could keep their mou-ths closed, They could answer some of the questions posed. Gwyn's the last to get a joke, Goldstein's under Cros-bie's yoke. Sharon sometimes comes to school, Peter is McDermid's fool. Sandy, Norm, Paul, Tom and Gord Make up our frolicking little horde. Fun and laughter is their game, The school will never be the same. Is Wrigley Johnstone really sane? Will Dale come back to us again? Marg does her homework at nine and one, Max comes to school for more than just fun. Janetfs too soft for the teachers to hear, Lilian jumps when Rick is near. Grace and Have you got some gum? Match like fingers and a thumb. There's Gold in that there class, oh Brudder, Howard, Hektor or what's-his-name, Katz will always be the same. Larry thinks that we're all crazy, But his memory may be hazy. Jo-Anne is our little brown-eyed squirt, Shirley always does her homework. Heidi knows her languages well, Renee with Stanley does excell. Dave can give some very strong punches, Barry gets marks on more than just hunches. Evelyn adds to the general clamour, Garshowitz uses real nice grammar. But still he's not Mrs. Southern's pet. Joyce likes to follow the horsey set. Our Jane not at all plain, Sylvia want. it to snow again. Sylvia Johnson sometimes forgets All sorts of homework and chewing gum debts. Mr. Devitt with his stories Of his family's past glories, Persists in teaching us our history, But still we love our big, bold D. A TROPICAL ADVENTURE A Cannon roared loud across the Gulf of Mexico, and another day had begun on Ether- ington Island, largest of the Florida Kays. James Saumets, a bonny Scottish Shepperd from Skye, awoke in his bed, yawned, and mut- tered, Shaw! I thought I Hird a noise! The great Bell was ringing from the old Spanish mission on the hill. He staggered to the bath- room and looked balefully at a three days' Groth of beard. aLaas, alack, he exclaimed, what a mess I be! He took his Gillette ad- justable from the medicine chest and Roughley scraped the fuzz from his chin. Afterwards he returned to the bedroom, feeling like a Neu Mann. His ablutions over, he strode outdoors. The sun, glinting off the Galvinized roofs of the little harbour town momentarily blinded him. Then he walked into the town. It was hot already. He took out his Hanke- chief and wiped his brow. He had to cross the island today, and would not do it by foot in such hot sun. He walked upto a lean-to shack where Thompson, the local blackSmith, lived. Thompson! he cried, and a grimy, sooty- faced fellow appeared. I wish to rent your horse. Will five dollars be enough? Nay, sir. The Price has risen. Besides, my better steed is rented to Paikin, the priest at the mission. All I have left is my Leibur Horz, 'Ellen Berg, who is sway-backed and af- flicted with the bots. I call her that because I found her on an iceberg in Greenland one day. Leibur is German for 'dear', you know. They went outside. La-la-la, hummed the smith. What? I Said, 'La-la-la'. Thompson pointed: There she be, he said, tethered to that Birtch tree. I'd have my way if the tree were out, but it has such a long Rozzome root that I can't budge her. Why not hack her down ? James suggested. Thompson did, swinging his axe. James stood by, cheering: 'Ack 'er, man'. Then James rode away, a bottle for refresh- ment with the label Ballantyne Crest obliterat- edl hanging from the saddle. As he passed through the town, several of the Common people chased after him angrily, led by a demo- gogue named Duckworth, a man of shady repu- tation, who claimed that the rider had stepped on his foot. Then, the most appalling event ever to hap- pen before human eyes occurred - Csorry, we ran out of namesl. Harry Duckworth, l2G1. 11G4 lst row: J. Hunt, E. Leckenby, K Leaist, S. Vizniowski, M.

THE EXTRAORDINARY CLASS OF IZG3 We are the intriguing class of IZG3, Of whom there are 41, including me. Good things naturally come in a pair According to our learned Form master, Mr. Scher: We have pairs of Sheils, Davids, Dougs, Karens, Johns and Jacks, Who are all smart cookies. following the right tracks. Evey, Jane, Penny and Martin are the class brainsg While Donna and Richard give Mr, Devitt his pains. When Preacher Art and Crooner Tim sing to nurse away their blues, Murray, Sharon, Bob and Doreen start to throw old shoes. Jean must protect Darlene now that she's free, From all the class wolves who with her want to make whoopee. Lloyd has suddenly become a chemistry whizzg But he continues to make poor Miss Dixon's temper fizz, When Jim and Laird scratch the board with! their nails, Michael comes to Liddy's rescue, while Carol gets the pails. Carolyn thinks Rick's and Brad's antics are those of a clown, But alas, they cause long-suffering Mr. Reavley to frown. Our class is well represented in sports, But some would like to see Mr. Toon sporting shorts. Mary and Judy keep Mr. Simpson a-hopping: While Brian, Sue and Bev. our lessons keep stopping. Well I must now stop for I'Ve run out of space, But you will find we'll give any class a tough race. Jack Leon. 12G4 The Long rocket was covered with shiny Goldblatt with Ruston the tail fins. Inside Ford-Smith said Dubbledam, we forgot to bring the Katz. Just then he heard a Russel in the background. It was those Scotts, Mc- Clellan, McDonald and McLachlin. They were trying to reach the moon to free the Clemen- hagen brothers, Clement and Cormier, who were under the Rule of the famous Knight, Turkstra. Soon the Jenning rocket landed. Alliston, Hutchinson, Newton, Jamieson, Migh- ton, Thompson and Sandison were waiting for the Luhrmann ttheir name for earthmani to land. These moon-folk were Harolds to the biggest Cheeseman of all Ferrol . Pretending to welcome them, they yelled Ye Men . While walking on the moon, they met Francis Gleave, the king's wife, who was Heming her skirt. She told them of a plan to get rid of Ostrosser and Kamutzki, the head guards, and get safely liack to earth. The Bailey's daughter, Sealey, also helped in the escape. They landed back on earth with a thud. The next was Wake Up! You look as if you've been to the moon. It was Mr. Richardson trying to get the class l2G4's minds back to French. 12G5 Once upon a time there dwelt in the far-off forests of beatnickland a real far-out swingin' daddy named Hall. Ol' Hall couldn't Cook too well, but spent his time Markino Campbell's soup, and sometimes even that would make your stomach Aik Man. Hall's pad Was a really Peachey place. Once you had knifed your way through the smoke, you found several of the members of 12G5 re- laxing in their spare time, which was almost always. Off in a dark corner, Lawrie was blowing out a gone version of Santa Claus is coming to Town on her French horn, while Burgess was Hutton out the rhythm on a pair of purple bongos. Suddenly McDermott pulled up to the Nor' Gate in her new Gray Ford. Quick, she yelled, I need some Lind burg- er Cheese, Man! I've just been out in the Grand Field where I bagged a Partridge and caught a male and female Pyke and I'll have nothing Butt Rum to drink with them. Kleiner rushed to her aid while Brown sat in another corner making sguiggles on a can- vass With a tube of McLean's toothpaste and Regnarus read aloud the works of Longworth to his rapt audience of Jennings and MacNa- mara. Just at that moment Pazaratz came Rissing in: McElroy, he yelled, I think you're Oun me some butts! Leeve me alone, McElroy replied, or I'll set Stephen after you. No sooner had the Words left his mouth than in came Sheehan the hauncer. She tripped over Thomson sitting in the doorway writing the class news. Thus we must leave our gay, happy group 'till next year, when we will probably find them all still in the same class because they flunked French, algebra and chemistry. Perhaps the teachers should have hit them over the head with a Batt. 12C1 CLASS NEWS Everyone is playing Perry Mason in law class since we received a new judge. On the day of the grad pictures, we caught our first glimpse of the future well-dressed tycoons of the business world. Jo-anne T. decides to be the wife of a type- writer salesman.

The words are just that-words, to those who have not been there, but to those who have, they are magic. Wow! Westdale Secondary School left the C.N.R. station on Monday night, April 18, at 8:00 o'clock, Canada at 10:00, and the humble world of King and James the seconds it laid eyes on Broadway, The Great White Way . . . . There was the city to be seen and to be sensed: the buildings and the businesses, the ships and the shows, the parks and the people . . . and saw them it did! We travelled by train, wheres sleeping was prohibited by itinerant bongo players and all- night card sharks who kept their own games going until dawn. Sleep was impossible, so were the bongo players. We stayed in the Great Northern Hotel, where the accent was on construction and elev- ators that sometimes worked, sometimes did not, and in the Wellington Hotel, where the accent was sometimes Georgian, sometimes not: Give me the fowath flowa, pleease. We toured the United Nations buildings that rise from East River slums, and admired the beauty of a structure where 82 member nations work . . . and hope lives. We went through the gigantic Rockefeller Centre, a city of its own, and had our picture taken on the roof. We sat . . . in the round dome of Hayden Planetarium and saw the Easter pageant un- fold as if by magic on the sky above . . . and in our first Broadway threatre to see our first Broadway play. We walked among Beatnicks on the streets of the Village and saw what tired, lazy people look and act like. Beat means to them what spring fever means to us, except that theirs is a perpetual and not a seasonal disease. We heard beat poetry and drank beat espresso, and had our stomachs turned by both. We laughed at the circus, the monkeys and the clowns and the lady who made herself into a cannonball, the pageants of a fairy tale land far too great for words to paint . . the pageant of Easter at Radio City Music Hall, and the shows from Holland and Hollywood. And, we returned home, as I said, tired and broke, but very happy . . , grateful too, to men like Mr. Bell, who stayed with us to keep an eye on things . . . thanks! Here's to next year's trip ....

BELL Mr. Bell was born and raised in Sarnia, On- tario. After graduating from Sarnia Collegiate Institute, he attended McMaster University in Toronto. He took an active interest in sports, and became well-known for his participation in football. Having received his B.A. degree in Honours Math and Physics, he spent a year at O. C. E. He is married and has two chil- dren. His first teaching assignment was at the old Central Collegiate in Hamilton. Mr. Bell came here as a Math teacher when Westdale was opened in September, 1930. In 1943, when the guidance department was opened, he began working in this new field, helping students select courses and plan for the future. The office of Academic Director was created in 1949, and Mr. Bell was appointed to this post. He became Vice-principal of the school in 1956 and gave up teaching to devote his time to executive and guidance duties. From 1930 to the present, Mr. Bell has had a special interest in the graduating students. He sets up exam schedules and checks Grade XIII timetables. Mr. Bell, in a sense, is also graduating. In his own words: What took you five years to do, has taken me thirty. In spite of what he may say, we know that West- dale will miss Mr. Bell. His contribution to the school has been great, and on behalf of the students in the school and those who have graduated, we wish him good luck in his new job. MR. MCGUFFIN This year, Westdale welcomed Mr. McGuffin as a teacher and as the new Head of the Eng- lish Department. We are indeed sorry that he is leaving us after such a short time in our school. In his brief stay at Westdale, Mr. Mc- Guffin has become very popular, 'both as a person and as an instructor. Mr. McGuffin was born on a farm near Lon- don, Ontario. His schooling progressed from a one-room school in the country, through Sir Adam Beck Collegiate Institute in London, and then to the University of Western Ontario. MR. COOPER The leader of the 13G1 that is, of course, that popular Latin teacher on the third floor, Mr. Cooper.

CTravel is one of his favourite pastimesl After teaching at Central for a few years, he came to Westdale, but the war interrupted his teaching career.

In 1947, Mr. Cooper -bought a 57-acre farm north of Waterdown, where he now lives. When he first bought the farm, which was in a run- down condition, he had no serious intention to farm himself, but since that time he has used his spare time to bring about many im- provemenits, and now he grows cherries and raises beef cattle - as a hobby. When asked iwhy he decided to 'become a teacher, Mr. Cooper remarked that he did not worry about what he was going to be until he graduated from universityg then the choice of teaching as a career seemed to him the wisest decision. CHe doesn t think that this is a good example for us to follow.J Everyone in the cohort wishes this fine teacher every success in the future, both in the classroom and on his farm. MR. FEE Greatly feared by non-doers of homework, but beloved by all, is our third floor History teacher, Mr. Fee. Born a minister's son in Kingston, Ontario, Mr. Fee received his early education in various parts of Ontario and the Western provinces. While he was attending high school in a prairie village, war broke out and it was necessary for his education to cease temporarily, and he obtained a position as a bank clerk for a short while. He then enlisted in the army at Sas- katoon and went overseas to war. He was discharged from the army in 1918 and entered Queen's University. For five years, Mr. Fee worked his way through, and after his second year decided to become a high school teacher since there was a shortage at that time. For three years he taught at Delta and then came to Westdale in 1930 as head of the History department. MR. BALLANTYNE Mr. Ballantyne was born in Saskatchewan, and he received his elementary education there. Upon graduating from Continuation School - a public school with 12 grades - Mr. Ballan- tyne taught public school in a Saskatchewan rural school for some time, but soon returned to school for another year to complete Grade 135 after this, he Went back to teaching in Saskatchewan. During the First World War Mr. Ballantyne served in the Royal Flying Corps of the Canadian Armed Forces. At the end of the war, he entered the University of Toronto, and acquired his secondary school teacher's diploma.

His hobbies are reading, fishing and his summer cottage, where he says he can exer- cise my muscles and also my ingenuity , Upon retirement this year, he wishes to do some construction on his cottage and on his home, and then travel. Me. Fee has enjoyed working with the teach- ers and pupils, and we all Wish him well when he leaves this year. At present, Mr, Ballantyne is head of the Scholarship Committee in Westdale, but some years ago - before extra-curricular activities became as numerous as they are now - he headed a group of students that might be called a science club g these students met regularly in Mr. Ballantyne's class room after school hours and performed chemical experi- ments or discussed science problems that were outside their course of study. Mr. Ballantyne has no specific plans for his retirement years, but, among other things, hopes to travel - perhaps to Europe. Mr. Ballantyne has never seriously considered any profession besides teaching, and he has found his teaching career interesting and rewarding. Mr. Ballantyne offers these words of Warn- ing to students who plan to enter university science courses: Courses will becom.e harder, naturallyg bu-t many students will encounter difficulties in adjusting to the independence that is given them in regard to their studies, for too many high school students rely too heavily on their teachers to prod them in their studying.
