Text from Pages 1 - 66 of the 1939 volume:

Dedication To Mr. J. G. Taylor, M.A., B. Educ., who for years, through his teaching, pa tience and kindly understanding, has guided and shaped the lives of our young men and women, we respectfully dedi¬ cate this volume. FOREWORD I N PRESENTING you with this, your first volume of the Westmount Review, I feel that we have in some small measure fulfilled a long-felt need at Westmount. We have tried to present to you a com¬ plete summary of all the activities of the past school year. In producing the first issue of the Review I see the realization of one of my fondest dreams. I hope you like it! 1 should like at this point to offer my sincere thanks to my staff for their unceasing co-operation and support. To the advertising staff in particular a vote of thanks is due for the splendid job they have done in securing the necessary financial support. Arising from the subject of financial support is a word about our adver¬ tisers themselves. To them we owe a debt of gratitude which we hope to repay in the not too distant future. It was only through their kind co-operation that this volume was possible at all. They have rendered a service perha ps far greater than they realize. If one stops to consider, does it not seem significant that in a war-mad world, ravaged by hate and fear, torn by shell and pen, that Canadian ideals and institutions should continue to function as of old? That Westmount High School should turn out sixty graduates; sixty graduates full of all the hope and expectancy of youth, awaiting with open and unbiased minds the future? Is it not significant that in a year when all our priceless traditions threatened to come tumbling about our ears, that a school full of students, working and playing together, learning the value of co-operative effort, discipline and authority, should debate and discuss the ways and means of their Students’ Union elections? Is it not significant that in a world where father fights son and brother kills brother for the realization of idyllic dreams, that students all over the country honor and uphold the traditions that our forefathers fought and died for? Does not all the aforementioned seem significant, that in spite of all the pessimism and hostility about us that the sane and age-old traditions of democracy will survive and emerge triumphant and unscathed from the dark abyss of shattered Utopian ideals? Perhaps to many of you the above statements seem somewhat far-fetched and out of place in a foreword, but the topic is one that we may well pause to consider. In closing I should like to add that I have been very proud to have been the editor to give you the first copy of the Review. The past year, during which I have had the privilege of holding a dual editorship, I shall always deem one of my fondest memories. May I wish all of you the best of luck in your future endeavors, and may Our trails cross again! KEITH HUFF. Page four CHAPTERS Page five Mr. J. G. Taylor, M.A., B. Educ. Page eight Principal ' s Message After four years, more or less, spent at Westmuunt High School, the time is near at hand when, as students, you will be saying good-bye to the familiar halls and class rooms. It will pos¬ sibly cause in some of you a feeling of regret at breaking away from the surroundings and associations which you have formed. However keen the regret you will no doubt be desirous to go forth and take your part in the affairs of post-school life. Some of the information imparted to you during your High School Course will be of direct use to you in your work; other portions of it will be of use in understanding what you read and what you see around you, and still other portions will enable you to make profitable use of your leisure time. Whether your ambitions lead you to pursue more advanced academic study, to take part in the field of industry, to follow one of the trades, or some other line of work, the habits which you have formed at school will follow you in your work. You will find it just as necessary to be industrious, honest, and painstaking to make a success in your chosen calling as it was to make a real success of your school education. The wish of your teachers is that you have been helped by your school activities and associations, to overcome your trials and difficulties and also to enjoy to the full all the pleasures life offers you. In conclusion will you accept the suggestion of Long¬ fellow is his “Psalm of Life.’’ “Let us then be up and doing With a heart for any fate, Still achieving, still pursuing Learn to labor and to wait.” Page In Appreciation We, the graduating class, thank you, teachers of Westmount High School. We would have it known that we appreciate to the full the somewhat thank¬ less job you have performed in educating us. We entered here, into your domain, gawky, cocksure “kids” from grade eight; we leave here, young men and women, better fitted to take our place in the great world outside. You are responsible for that change. To you we owe a debt of gratitude we can never hope to repay. We will try to live up to the standards of decency and citizenship you have in¬ stilled in us. Perhaps being a good citizen is reward enough; if so, we promise you, you shall be repaid in full! Ye rigid Plowmen! Bear in mind Your labor is for future hours. Advance! spare not! nor look behind! Plow deep and straight with all your powers — HORNE.

Page twenty-three Executive and Social PRESIDENT ' S MESSAGE T HIS YEAR, for the first time in the history of the school, the students of Westmount were granted the privilege of electing their Students’ Council President in a democratic manner. I was deeply honored to be the first one selected to hold office under the new regime. I wish to take this opportunity to thank all those who gave me their loyal support and I only hope that their trust has not been in vain. It has always been my aim to fulfil my office with the dignity and vigor that my posi¬ tion demands. I have tried to give you as much extra-curricular activity in the way of dances, clubs and lits as feasible, and that aim has been upheld by the rest of the Students’ Council. To them I extend a vote of thanks for their splendid co-operation and support. I shall never forget the year I spent as your .S. U. president and will treasure it always as one of my fondest and proudest memories. I should also like to take this opportunity to present my suggestions as to certain reforms which could be introduced into the Students’ Union next year. We have at the present time fifteen representatives on the council; there should be at the very least twenty! This enlargement could be made very easily by allowing the various clubs and organizations one seat each. Another improvement that I should like to see is that the elections be held during the second week of the first term instead of in the second month. Every day counts academically and liketvise every day is important to your council. The sooner it gets started the better chance it has to function as a co-operative organ of the student body. In another vein, this year Westmount High has started something which is, for us, unique in the way of school publications. Our old friend, the under¬ estimated Pioneer was enlarged to twelve pages, a record, and really one of which to be proud when you take into consideration the size of the student body. Then, the Year-Book which you now hold in your hands is a project never before attempted. A great deal of credit is undoubtedly due the editor and those who gave up their time, with no hope of profit, to aid him. But much as I realize this, I would strongly advise that never again should a dual-editorship be put on the shoulders of one student, regardless of his willingness or adaptability. Each publication is. in itself, a full-time job. In closing I would like to leave this thought with you. Support your council! We, the students of today, are the citizens of to-morrow. Prepare yourselves in this way for the great responsibility that being a citizen entails! Learn here in high school the value of co-operative effort, and the truth of the age-old adage: “United we stand, divided we fall.” And so, with this thought, I leave you! Page twenty-six DON ARNETT. Standing, left to right: Donald Packabusch, Clarke Greenough, Stanley Deakin, Audrey Walker (Secre¬ tary), Bob Robb, Douglas Johnston, Craig Moon.

Students’ Union L OOKING back on the term 38-39, we cannot fail to realize that it has been a great year. Things got under way with the election of the Students’ Union, and Don Arnett proved victorious over four other candidates seeking presidential honors. With Don at the helm the Union commenced activities by electing Ken Bradshaw vice-president and Audrey Walker secretary. The duties of provid¬ ing the school with sweaters, arranging Lits, dances and the sleigh-ride were carried off admirably. After the Christmas breakup the business of arranging our first Lit, and annual sleigh-ride occupied the Union’s time. The second Lit was produced in March when three plays and a number of musical selections were presented. The first school dance, held on December 16, does credit to the body as a whole. Following the Easter vacation, the Union got together like never before and put over Westmount’s biggest social hit of the year—the main school dance. Now in the words of Kipling’s Gunga Dhin: Salut! to the student repre¬ sentatives for their fine work—Don Arnett, who did his duty as he saw it; Ken Bradshaw, who capably executed the vice-presidency; Audrey Walker, enthusi¬ astic secretary; finally the room reps., those much-abused mortals who took an active part in all the meetings, sold tickets, collected money and answered the never-ending stream of questions. We will remember all of you long after you’re gone! Page twenty-seven Review Staff A GROUP of people, once happy and free, now rapidly approaching old age and insanity, are to be seen about the campus daily, worrying them¬ selves and everyone else with the awful question: Has the Review paid for it¬ self or will we spend our summer holidays working for the government? Some time last January, the chief editor sprang the idea of a year-book upon us. Since a great many of us are leaving dear old alma mater this June, we could think of nothing more fitting as a farewell tribute than to launch the good ship Review. Gradually the wheels of industry started to turn, setting- in motion the machinery necessary for success. To the editor fell the responsibility he now passes off with a smile and his well-known phrase, “I must have been crazy.” The assistant editors also did much to keep the infant year-book on its feet, while a big headache went to the advertising manager and his staff. Battling against the terrific odds of a shor¬ tened deadline the ad. department did a splendid job. And now you see the fruits of our labors! Starting from the outside we have the cover. This was designed by Bert Nightingale who also did the work¬ ing drawing. On the inside you have carefully scrutinized editorials, and the best in the way of pictorial matter the ‘Art Dept.’ could offer. We only hope the finished job appeals to you. It has been a pleasure to publish the Review in the name of the grand old school, Westmount High. Long may it flourish and serve the youth of this community! Page twenty-eight School Dance and Sleigh-Ride T 7 ESTMOUNT held its semi-annual dance on December 16, Christmas be- ing the theme. The Assembly Hall, gaily decked out in crimson and green streamers and balloons, furnished a colorful setting for such a festive occasion. Tim Wilson’s orchestra supplied the music and for three eventful hours Westmount’s ancient walls shook and trembled to the measured beat of dancing feet. Master of Ceremonies Don Arnett carried off his part flawlessly, announcing the different numbers and awarding the prizes. All in all it was an evening long to be remembered. As this book goes to press, a second dance, on a larger scale, has been planned at the Masonic Temple, on May 13. We trust it will be as big a suc¬ cess as the first. Jingling of sleigh-bells, and the laughing voices of high school students— all these were very much in evidence as the annual Westmount sleigh-ride got under way. The setting was ideal, just the right amount of snow and the weather comfortable. Returning to the school, coffee and doughnuts were served by “Jock Bell Co.” Jock, recovering from a broken leg, was unable to make the trip. An informal dance was then held, bulky winter clothes, ski outfits and the like, not dampening the ardor of the swing enthusiasts. The party broke up about eleven o ’clock, with all the guests voting it one of the best events of the season. What Are They Doing Now? Jack Arnett: A recent graduate of the Olds Agricultural College. Frank Rock: An enthusiastic member of the R.C.A.F. Jack Caldwell: Recently appointed on Publicity Department for the Boys’ and Girls’ Fair. Peggy Smalley: A first year student at Varsity. Charley Dunkley: Likewise lapping up learning. Ray Peters: Taking a business course at McTavish’s. Ted Marr: Stationed down in the frozen north. George Day: A mechanic in a local garage. Jean Home: Now corresponding from Hanna, Alberta. Fred Crossley: Has entered the industrial side of life. Jessie Cuthill: Bestowing her charm on Commercial. Ada Trinder: Also a Commercial co-ed. Harry Mackay: Struggling through a Commerce course at Varsity. Bill Watson: Enrolled in Kingston Military College. Virginia Morrow: A Household Economics student at Varsity. Audrey Stewart: A Commercial graduate this year. Harris Field: Utilizing his vocal powers at Varsity. Catherine Walker: Another of these ex-Westmount Commercialites. Page twenty-nine Pioneer Staff T HIS year Westmount saw its largest and most ambitious issues of the “Pioneer.” It has been a difficult task. Opinion among the students was strongly divided as to whether or not the paper should contain articles of a serious nature. We, the staff, believe firmly that, it should. Consequently, besides the humorous articles, scandal and jokes, there were articles on politics and music and articles advocating various reforms in the school itself. We tried our best to influence our readers to think seriously of the more important things outside the limiting boundaries of school life, and also to take a greater interest and participation in the development of a union that would be the most capable a high school of our size could possibly produce. We hope we have succeeded! The difference of opinion among the students was not the only stumbling block. To look upon our large staff one would think the editor of the Pioneer had an easy job in putting out the issues of Christmas, January and Easter. Unfortunately, this was not the case. We regret to say that the co-operation was not all it should have been. Nevertheless, Keith Huff, aided and abetted by such staunch supporters as Bert Nightingale, Phyllis Dunkley, Jean Cor- regan and Ralph Loder, was able to produce three twelve page issues which were really worthy of a high school group. Moreover, each issue brought in a substantial profit, for the sales this year were record breaking. Therefore, why should we sigh? We have done our duty as we saw it, and mind you, it has been quite a lot of fun at times, and it is satisfying to know we have been successful in giving pleasure to the students of Westmount High. Dramatics ’39 T HE END of another season has brought to a successful conclusion the ac¬ tivities of the dramatic classes. The grade 11 class began the year by tracing drama from its earliest be¬ ginnings in Grecian tragedy to the present twentieth century plays. The grade 10 class studied the fundamentals of acting and carried on monthly criticisms of plays read, movies, and dramas heard over the air. Last year Westmount gained quite a reputation for acting, due to the staging of public performances. Although unable to do so this year the classes produced several good plays for Lits. “The Wedding,’’ produced by the Senior class for the first school Lit on January 20, proved to be very popular among the students. Bill McKim as the agitated bridegroom, Gwynne Napier as his lovely bride, Betty Alston as the bride’s aunt, Weldon Stacey as best man, Joan Byar as the groom’s mother, Jack Hall as the bride’s father and Don Saidler as the groom’s friend, all car¬ ried their parts with surprising ability and sincerity. Miss Haw , who directed the play, is certainly to be congratulated on doing a splendid job. At a Lit held on March 24, the dramatic classes presented three plays. “The Florist Shop,’’ put on by the grade 10 classes, was the comedy of the day. Margaret Smith, Bill Wright and Douglas Johnston as the personnel of that respective establishment, carried their parts in an easy and convincing- manner. Douglas stole the scene when, unexpectedly, his suspenders gave way! A splendid piece of acting was done by Alma Deugau, who took the part of the timid Miss Wells, and Stan Spallin disclosed a splendid flair for comedy in the role of Mr. Jackson. The other play by the Junior class, “Where the Cross is Made,” was de¬ cidedly spine-chilling. The acting ability displayed was exceptional, and Jerry Forbes as the mad sea-captain did a splendid job. Dick Travis as the son, Doris Lancaster as the daughter and Bob Weeks as the doctor, all contributed to make the play the success it was. The third play on the program, “The Valiant,” presented by the Senior class, proved highly successful. The story concerned a young man sentenced to die who prevents a young girl from discovering that he is her long-lost brother. Stuart Priest ably filled the part of the condemned man and Shauna Little the part of the sister. Other members of the cast were: Bob Livingston, warden; Bill Craig, chaplain; Douglas Haddow and Don Turner, prison atten¬ dants. Three student-directed plays were also prepared by the Senior class. These plays, “Birds of a Feather,” “The Confession” and “On Vengeance Height,” were especially good, Gwynne Napier’s interpretation of “Gram” being very well done. Both the Junior and the Senior classes have shown marked improvement this year, so that it may be said that Westmount High has made a great deal of progress. To sum everything up, the plays were good, the acting good and the di¬ recting good! Page t.hirty-r Ain’t she cute....Four cute co-eds.—Boh Rooney and is he proud ....

The Westmount Debating Club S UCCESSFULLY beginning its second year of existence, the Westmount De¬ bating Club went into action in October, with sixteen members enrolled. Mr. Shaw again consented to act as advisor. Bert Nightingale was elected President at the first meeing, Keith Huff vice-president, and Jean Ball secretary. A rule committee was then drawn up, consisting of Margaret Smith, Shauna Little and Nolan Henderson. During the first few meetings, open forums were held, but the first formal debate, “Resolved that Girls’ Debating is Inferior to Boys’,” gave the club an opportunity to really get working. Prior to the Christmas holidays the club ‘ ‘ went festive, ’ ’ holding a party in the Assembly Hall. After Christmas the club was reorganized, the follow¬ ing officers being elected: Jean Ball, president; Nolan Henderson, vice-presi¬ dent, and Margaret Smith, secretary. Subject for the first debate under the new regime was ‘‘Resolved that Canada should adopt military training in schools.” The affirmative, Elaine Calver and Nolan Henderson, were victorious over Bob Aitken and George Skov. The next debate, ‘‘Resolved that China Would Benefit Under Japanese Rule,” showed much improvement. Leonard Garrett, Joan Cragg and Shauna Little, negative, defeated Jean Ball, Madeline Singer and Douglas Pullman. Last debate this season was, ‘‘Resolved that Germany Should be Given Back Her Colonies.” Margaret Smith and Vaux Evans defeated negative team, Kathleen Mahoney and Bob Aitken. It is to be hoped that this club, started by a small band of students in¬ terested in debating, will flourish in the years to come School Lits F IRST of the school Lits was held in January, consisting of a one-act play by the senior drama class, a motion picture and community singing. The play, entitled ‘‘The Wedding,” was of an amusing nature that cap¬ tured the attention of the audience right from the start. Bill McKim was lead¬ ing man and Gwynne Napier the heroine. Although the dialogue was in the French-Canadian tongue, the motion pic¬ ture ‘‘Maria Chapdelaine” was very entertaining. A cartoon brought the afternoon to a close. The second Lit, held in March, proved even more successful, featuring three plays and musical entertainment. First play, ‘‘Where the Cross is Made,” was put on by the junior drama class. The cast was: Jerry Forbes, Richard Travis, Doris Lancaster and Bob Weeks. ‘‘The Flower Shop,” also by the juniors, was in a lighter strain with parts being taken by Margaret Smith, Alma Deugau, Douglas Johnston and Bill Wright. The senior dramatic class presented ‘‘The Valiant,” featuring Stuart Priest, Bill Craig, Bob Livingston, Don Turner and Shauna Little. Entertaining during the intermissions were a group of assisting artists as follows: Nolan Henderson, violin; Marcelle Reed, piano; Joan Stirling, piano, and Clarence Haakenstad, accordion. Page thirty-four Hopes for the Future I was in another land. It surely must have been Utopia, so wonderful was it. I was going to school and actually loving it. Everyone at this centre of education was blissfully happy for there was, strangely enough, no cause for discontent. The school was run in an ideal manner. At the head was a popu¬ lar, business-like president voted into office wisely by the whole school. Under him were the capable room reps., who had been elected jointly by the boys and girls in each class. The Students’ Union meetings were open to the students, all of whom behaved properly during the meetings. The finances were con¬ trolled by the union and a teacher, who acted only as a tactful supervisor. Financial reports were posted on the notice boards announcing exactly what became of our athletic fees. There was a good school orchestra that played at all the after-four Lits. The school paper was ever so popular because the stu¬ dents co-operated with the editor. All the big dances were open to the public, which gave the treasury a big boost every time a dance was held. And finally the teachers and the students always worked happily together to make their school the leader among all the others in the city. What a wonderful dream that was. I hated to wake up, but as soon as I began thinking it over I wondered why we at Westmount couldn’t adopt some of those Utopian ideals. Finally I came to the bright conclusion that West- mount could be just as happy and contented a school as that of which I had dreamed. We already have a president elected by the whole school. The only trouble with our union is that we don’t always vote for the most capable room repre¬ sentatives. We blindly vote for the most popular persons hoping that they have the most ability. Both the boys and girls together should elect the most capable boy and both should elect the most capable girl. Thus we would have the strongest union possible. The students’ union meetings could easily be made public by holding them in the assembly hall. Unruly students could be ousted by those in command of such matters. If a student had a suggestion to make he could speak to his rep¬ resentative before or after the meeting and the rep. could bring it up for dis¬ cussion. These public meetings would keep all the members up on their toes. Surely the union could manage the finances as long as a teacher super¬ vised quietly to guard against rashness or extravagance. Also there is no rea¬ son why a report should not be made on how every cent of our athletic fees are spent. Our treasury could certainly be boosted if we had bigger and better dances open to the public. Puzzle over this the way I did and I think you’ll come to the same con¬ clusion, that we could make Westmount famous in Edmonton for its Utopian happiness. Agreed, fellow students? Page thirty-li ' Senior Rugby T THE beginning of the official rugby season, coaches of the Edmonton High Schools held a meeting and decided to introduce a new type of ugby in the schools, namely, the six-man game. This made possible the entry f more high schoo ls in the league because only one-half the former expense muld be entailed in fielding a team. The first game of the season for the Seniors was against Eastwood. It was good game, but the opponents proved too powerful and we were defeated to tie tune of 12-6. The next game was probably the best ever played. Opponents this time rere from Scona, who later won the cup. In the third period Bradshaw re- eived the ball from Greenough and raced within ten yards of the enemy’s oal, when the referee blew the whistle, claiming Bradshaw had his foot out f bounds. That story is still doubted strongly by those Westmount students dio saw the incident. Final score: 8-0 for Scona. Tech could not field a team for the final game, so the boys from our cam- us were given the decision. Junior Rugby A BOUQUET to our Juniors! They turned in the best performance West- mount has seen in several years. They came so close to winning the cup that we thought it was ours ; Perhaps that was the trouble! At any rate they did tie with Scona for second place. Many thanks, lads, for your gallant ef¬ forts on the field of battle! The first game was rather a heartbreaker, being defeated by Vic to the tune of five points. The next two games were an entirely different story for they defeated Scona and Eastwood respectively with comfortable margins. The following game vs. Tech was perhaps the toughest of the season, but they did prove too much for the Tech lads, defeating them by eight points. In the last game of the season the Juniors were perhaps a little too con¬ fident, for they fell prey to Sep’s strong offensive. The final score read just one point the wrong way, and so they were defeated. It would be, perhaps, fitting to mention here that W estmount is severely handicapped in that we have no professional coaching. Both Mr. Conquest and Mr. McNaught have done splendid jobs with their respective departments, but that is not enough. We have an abundance of splendid material at Westmount, but it needs expert and skilled handling before we can hope to have our name inscribed on any cups. Need conditions always be thus? Or will the time come when Westmount can field trained and skilled teams due to expert coach¬ ing? We hope it will—-don’t you?

Bantam Rugby U NDER the very able coaching of one Mr. George Mackintosh, the West- mount Bantams made a determined bid for victory. Due to no fault of their own, there was the odd slip-up on the way, but nevertheless they did put up a very good showing. In the first game of the season the boys tangled with last year’s champions, Scona. Scona, aided and abetted by experience and expert coaching, were odds-on favorites, but the spirit of our boys rose to the occasion and we white¬ washed said favorite to the tune of 27-0. They won their second and third vic¬ tories over Tech and Eastwood respectively with fair margins. Probably the best performers were Harry Allan, Charlie Hall, Stuart Priest and especially Bob Livingstone, who turned out a magnificent perfor¬ mance in every game he played. The Bantams also played an exhibition game against Sep, but although they fought every inch of the way, they were unable to turn the tide of battle faVorably. The Sep lads proved too much for our boys, and we were defeated to the tune of twenty to six. All the lads this year owe a vote of thanks to Mi-. Conquest, who so kindly provided them with transportation to the games. He was also responsible for securing crests for the squads, and so to you, Mr. Conquest, we say: Thanks Senior Hockey E ARLY in the season Harvey Crawford was elected captain of Westmount’s 38-39 hockey club. After considerable spade-work Harvey and Mr. Mc- Naught selected a hockey team to represent W.H.S. The first game saw Westmount defeated on home ice by Tech, three to one. Ross McKinnon scored Westmount’s one and only goal. For the second game, the Westmount squad journeyed to Vic’s rink for one of the fastest games Westmount ever played. Vic scored in the first period, and Crawford returned the compliment from the blue-line. Harvey scored again in the second period. Vic again evened things up towards the end of the same period, with two more in the third which gave Connel, in goal, no chance to save. Westmount next played Commercial in a rather slow game with few dan¬ gerous rushes. Hence the goal keepers had little to do. Scona was the fourth opponent. Ross McKinnon opened the scoring in the first period, by a cheer-raising goal that had the Scona keeper guessing all the way. In the second period one of the opposition developed a habit of working his way right into the goal and loosening lightning shots that had Connel “hop¬ ping” to clear. Final score: 4-1, Scona. On Westmount ice the home club was defeated in the fifth game by the powerful Eastwood squad, while in the last game our boys squeezed out a nar- Standing, left to right: Ken Bradshaw, Bob Weeks, Willard Hall, Mr. McNaught (manager), Bill Duff, Tommy Pinkston, Jim Clarke.

That, in a nutshell, was the motto of the Westmount Senior Girls’ Basketball team this year. The girls worked hard under Miss Hegler’s guidance and Tommy McLaughlan’s coaching. Al¬ though there was no regular schedule this term they had lots of keen athletic enjoyment and Exhilarating fun. Thanks to their efforts they were able to win a good percentage of the games they entered. Among the scalps they gained were two from Sep High and Scona, scores 26-14 and 15-13. The first game of the season was played against the Y.W.C.A. girls. The date was January 10, a black date, for our lassies were defeated to the rather dismal tune of 56-29. Several recruits, though new to the team and rather ner¬ vous, played exceedingly well. On February 1st the seniors were defeated by Vic at their school, 21-17. To Tommy McLaughlan, whose coaching was largely responsible for the varying successes attained, we want to express our appreciation. And perhaps a hearty “Thanks” will do it just as well as any other way. A vote of thanks also goes to Joan MacDonald, for her support. Joan ac¬ companied the teams to every game, keeping score for them. It was to her the girls looked for moral support. ; Phillips (captain), lughlan (coach), Norma Reyn Standing, left to right: Muriel Duke, Marguerite Riley, Miss Hegler (manager), Louise Stoughton and Betty Skov. Seated: Margaret Smith, Joan Craig, Pat MacLean, Mary Travers, Joan Blackburn and Edith Livingstone. Girls’ Junior Basketball A LTHOUGH the Westmount Junior Girls’ Basketball team was only suc- eessful in winning one game out of the seven played this year, the effort put into the sport by the girls was really worthwhile. They played a good brand of basketball this year and their record for fairness and fair play is one of which to be proud. After all, the important thing is not whether one wins or loses, but how one plays the game, and our girls showed they had the fight¬ ing spirit—the will to give their best, even when it was impossible for them to win. Their record shows that besides learning the rules of the game and hav¬ ing a lot of fun, they learned the meaning of good sportsmanship, and showed they were good losers, which is about as fine a tribute as can be paid to any sportsman—or sportswoman, in this case. The winning game was against Scona, and the score board read 25-22. High scorers for our girls were Marguerite Riley and Muriel Duke, both of whom played exceptional games. We would like to take this opportunity to thank Miss Hegler for all her work. She put up with all our wise cracks and, we all agree, “You’re swell.’’ Page forty-three iii student projects and ried out by the students M AY I, on behalf of the Westmount Re¬ view, thank a body of wil¬ ling supporters, who to a very large extent made the existence of this, our first year-book possible.

So highly did the Aztecs esteem chocolate that they valued the cocoa bean above gold. Introduced by Hernando Cortez to Spain in 1526, by the end of the 17th century chocolate was the aristocratic beverage of Europe. It was then that chocolate houses were first established. The best cocoa beans are grown in the equatorial zones in the West Indies, West Africa, Ceylon and other countries. Many are the processes of refinement that have been discovered since chocolate was first introduced. Because Neilson’s employ the most modern machinery and use only the finest cocoa beans, Neilson’s chocolate is so smooth, so rich, so delightful in flavour and matchless perfection that it is indeed the best chocolate made.
