Page sixty-six YEAR CLASS 11 - (Continued) BOYS MARGARET ISABEL WELSH—Margaret is usually cheerful, but insists on worrying and wondering what Geometry is all about. GERTRUDE ELEANOR WYNNE—She may be small, petite, or what you will, but her personality is enormous. CHESTER VINCE BURNS—A quick-witted lad with that old fighting spirit! When the teacher cries “Burns,” he pretends not to hear it. FRANK STUART CARMICHAEL—Each morning he arrives exactly at nine; According to average, he’ll be late in time. JOHN SEETON DAVIDSON—Badminton in winter, summer golf all the while, He practices hard for a “Bobby Jones” style.

With an 80% standing, he’ll probably pass. JAMES ARTHUR FRY—In Geometry class he’s an abnormal creature; For him props, are easy, and deductions a feature.

DON ROWAN LAZIER—A now famous pitcher at indoor softball, When not in a class, he’ll be found in the hall. WALTER LYLE LEBBERT—A boy with a smile and a step that is spry, He arrives every morning, petit dejeuner on his tie.

WALTER EDWIN NEILSON—The dark man of mystery of Western’s best class; Like quite a few others, he’ll have to work hard to pass. JACK EDWARD NOTT—An Algebra class which is every girl’s hate— Two-plus-two on the board—Nott shouting out “eight.” JOSEPH TIMOTHY O’CONNOR—The boy with the smile and the slick, shiny hair; Take warning in time, all school girls beware! WILLIAM HARCOURT O’REILLY—The man with the car, which he drives very fast; He has never been pinched. Will his luck always last? JOHN PITMAN—Last year he attended a school at the coast, But claims that Western’s the theme of his toast. PETER RICHARDSON—Just ask this young fellow his Geometry mark; So far, his report has been kept in the dark. ALLAN RUNDLE—When the holidays come, he does the high jumps; When September rolls ’round, he feels down in the dumps. KENNETH CHARLTON RUTTLE—His work at present is the academic course. His one and only pleasure is riding a horse. GEORGE VINCENT STOTT—One hundred and eighty—six feet in his socks— A really fine fellow, with nice curly locks. WILLIAM DUNDAS UREN—In all racquet sports he rings the old bell; Whatever his future, we all wish him well. GEORGE WATSON WALLACE—A student at first, a business man of late; With his Junior Matric., he’ll grace California’s state. PAUL ZABOK—He reads and he studies and then reads again, In time he’ll develop an abnormal brain.

Page sixty-eight YEAR Site Arrliiitra As the present fades into the past, simple uninteresting records of names and dates take on a value and meaning that grows with the years. Beginning with the 1929 Year Book, the names of all students who ever registered in the Sunalta-South Calgary-Western Canada High School, which be¬ gan 18 years ago in the Sunalta Public School building are recorded, the list below bringing the record up to two years ago. With each name is a number, and under this number is kept the school record of the student concerned. Simple as this may seem to be, the ten years that elapsed before any attempt was made to organ¬ ize the necessary material resulted in considerable difficulty in getting all the names, and some of the records have not been recovered. For a time registration cards were passed from school to school as students moved, and some of the cards could not be traced. A leaky roof also destroyed certain registers, but as far as we know only one name has been omitted in these published records. Lillie Wil- hemina Gordon (946a) registered at South Calgary in the academic year 1923-24.
