Western Canada High School students won 58 Honour Diplomas at the 1933 De¬ partmental Examinations, 29 Grade XII and 29 Grade XI. The reports published in the press show that this is the greatest number of honour diplomas won by any High School in Alberta in 1933. PAUL ZABOK The following clipping from an eastern paper will be of interest to Western Canada students: Miss Lucy Vanderhoorn, 18 year old student of Barrie Collegiate Institute, has broken the Upper School record for that school for a student with only four years of high school training, though her standing was equalled some years ago by a girl student who had six years at the collegiate. Miss Vanderhoorn, writing 14 subjects, took honours in all, twelve firsts, a second and a third. This brilliant young student is of Dutch parentage and was born in Salatrga, Java. From there she went to Holland and came to Canada a few years ago. Her high school course was started in Calgary. She attended high school at Burlington, Ont., for a time and a year ago she and her mother came to Barrie. She will undoubtedly win the first Carter Scholarship and probably several University Scholarships. Miss Vanderhoorn left the Western Canada High School in March. 1932, when she moved to Ontario. NORMAN ALSTON COLLEY, a graduate of Western Canada of 1930, is the author of a play that was presented at St. Stephen ' s Hall recently and received very favor¬ able comment from the press. Congratulations Norman. MARION LOUISE KIDNEY, who attended the South Calgary High School, 1925-28 and left with Junior Matriculation standing to train as a nurse, was presented with a $200 Scholarship at the Graduation Exercises at the Calgary General Hospital this spring. We understand Miss Kidney will pursue post graduate work in nursing. Numerous Western Canada Graduates have received degrees this Spring from Universities in Canada and U.S.A. Unfortunat ely we have been unable to obtain a complete list. Others have won honors at the Musical Festival. Congratulations to the winners. ELNORA BAILEY (Western Canada 1931)—rescued two young men from drowning at Bowness Park on May 24th, following the upsetting of a canoe.
