soon dissolved under the energy and applica- tion that we determinedly exercised. To each of the graduates here, the name Westdale conjures up a different picture. Many of us think of the warriors on the football teams, either the winning seniors or the hard- fighting juniors. Some of us think of the crowds cheering at all these games - hockey, basketball, water-polo and football. Many of us remember vividly last year's operetta Babes in Toyland . We also remember the dances that are sponsored by the Dance an-d Enter- tainment Committee. Especially memorable are the Sadie Hawkins Dance and the Prom, both annual events. Burt most exciting and memorable is the New York trip, which is oult- standing in most graduates' minds. We remember this trip vividly. It is just as though we returned from this marvellous city yesterday. It was a tremendous experi- ence. The Empire State building, Rockefeller Centre, the Statue of Liberty, and Radio City. All are clear in our minds. We also remember the Broadway shows, the night clubs, and the shopping centres. It was all wonderful. All of these are pleasant memories. Last but not least, we remember our parents and how much they have done for us. If they had not cared and helped us, many of us would not be here tonight. It was our parents who urged us to stay in school. Many of us, when we are in grades 11 or 12, think that we are wasting our time and that we would have much better opportunities if we were ouft of school. It is our parents who keep us there, for they know the true value of a good education. It is also our parents who insist that we do our homework and studies. Some of us are not too good at this. For this knowledge and discipline we must thank them. So, to each parenft goes a very sincere: Thank You. The fhour of parting draws nigh. In spite of hope and faith in the future, I for one do not hesitate to confess that there is a tinge of sadness in the present. Nevertheless, this is a moment we will cherish, for it testifies to the genuineness of our sympathy and heart- felt friendship. It has been the custom in the past for each graduating class to present Colonel McQueen with a gift to the school. To carry on this tradition, thfis year's graduating class would like to present a picture of Colonel McQueen. On behalf of all the students here, I would like to present you with this picture.

The Triune Student Council THE TRIUNE STUDENT COUNCIL The Triune Student Council, or The Triune for short, is a student council which organizes and supervises all student activities which are not a part of the regular school curriculum. 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 XIII7 and the candidate himself. The nominations are then sufbmitted 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-nominated 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, Technicalb, Tihe 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 REPORT The publication of another edition of Le Raconteur signifies that another school year is drawing to a close. To many of us, it means not only the end of another year, but the end of a definite phase of our lives. Those of us who are due to graduate this year find ourselves like the two-headed god Janus - looking in two directions at the same time. Although we are eagerly looking forward to the future, we look backwards over our years at Westdale with a great deal of nostalgia. We will long remember our favourite teachers and the many friends we have made. Football games, dances, auditorium, etc., will provide ample material for wistful reminiscing. West- dale will always be a part of us. The Triune this year has accomplished much. The member committees have co-operated close- ly to provide the students with a well rounded programme of activities ranging from a Sadie Hawkins dance to the formal Prom, from a school newspaper to the reintroduction, after a lapse of some years, of an annual school play. Special thanks should be paid to Colonel McQueen and our teacher-adviser who gave us so much assistance in every way. Nevertheless, although we leave Westdale with much regret, we look forward to our future endeavours with great anticipation. Whether We go into industry, commerce, nurs- ing or a professional field, the future offers a challenge which we are eager to accept. Westdale has prepared us to meet this chal- lenge. May we always uphold the fine tradi- tions of this school, remembering that we reap the best harvest only when we do our best work. TRIUNE PRESIDENT The president of this year's Triune is John Price of 13G4 CRussell's Rebsl. He is an ath- lete, a gentleman and a scholar - good at any- thing he attempts. John has spent a very active five years at Westdale, especially in sports. In Grades 10, 11, 12 and 13, he was on school football teams, of which three won city championships. Every year since Grade 9, John has belonged to the rowing team. Last year, through the Leander Boat Club, he was one of a heavy four that rowed their way to a Canadian cham- pionship. John has played for the school hockey team every year since Grade 9. Both this year and last, the teams won the city championship. The Grade 13 hockey championship went to Russell's Rebs this year, thanks to, among others, John. Last year he played volleyball for the school team. Athletics aren't John's only interests, how- ever. He was in the school orchestra for two yearsg has been going out for rifle shooting since Grade 9, and has been a cadet each year. John is well-known not only for his partici- pation in extra-curricular activities. In Grade 9 he was the first boy to appear here with a Yul Brynner haircut. Also, Eurdley , this 1932 Ford roadster Cwith a rumble seatl will make John remembered for years to come. Besides being well-known, John is well liked. He was captain of last year's rowing team and co-captain of this year's football team. Then, of course, you have elected him president. John has spent a busy five years in West- dale as you can see, but he has still managed to maintain very good marks. He has passed every year with honour standing. John wants to be a lawyer or, perhaps, a doctor. Kathy Dain, 12G5.
