Valerie Findlay At the annual Eisteddford or Festival in the Dewi Sant Welsh United Church in Toronto on February 8th, 1958, first prize in the poetry competition was awarded to Valerie Findlay. Ten poems had -been submitted to the contest, some written in Welsh. They had to contain a minimum of thirty lines, and must be on the subject of The Rush Hour . All poems were submitted under a nom de plume. The adjudicator was deeply moved by the lofti- ness of thought in the poem by Bronwen . He was startled when Bronwen turned out to be a girl of eighteen. Rev. Humphrey Jones,the adjudicator, took time to read the poem, although it was late in the evening, to the enjoyment of the audience, who applauded heartily. THE RUSH HOU R Five o'c1ock Magic moment fraught with hope of freedom Pregnant with promise of liberty. Five o'c1ock Contains in the chime of its coming the breathless Drama between tidal ebb and flow, Poignancy of spring's arrival, Expectancy of sunrise, Fulfillment of twilight peace. Five o' clock The trigger of the gun which starts with its dis- charge The rush hour, Which in the dashing, sweeping, swirling, twisting mobs r Describes a massive, distorted migration, A mottled, chaotic melee, Into which factories spew their slaves, Stores release their clerks, Oifices empty their nine-to-five subjects, Filling the air with noise and the streets with clattering crowds. The rush hour To some Seems to smother in its roar The still, small voice of God. But amid the turmoil One pedestrian looks up Past the restless, surging life about him Beyond the criss-cross confusion of wires above him Seeking in the silence ethereal Searching in the stillness eternal For that still, small voice of God, And he beholds A star That beams with re-assurance upon his upturned face, And he finds In its rays the proof of God's unchanging love, For stars today have shone directed by His hand Since first the universe was formed at His com- mand.

0 Lord from saddened hearts we pray For Sandra Minns who passed awayg Hear from this class our only plea, May she be happier, nearer Thee. Written in memory of Sandra Minns by Valerie Findlay on behalf of her friends in Grade 13. 13C Of course, it is a widely known fact that 13C is the best form in the school. Our day starts with our wonderfully understanding form teacher, Mr. Barr, who marks our every misdeed. We then pro- ceed to Mr. Lancaster's room where a good time is had by all except those taldng Math. At the right front table in the cafeteria, the Grade 13 boys en- joy a quiet lunch, amid the havoc created by the lower forms. Outside of an invigorating Latin class wherein certain of the boys pour forth with bri1lia.nt words and phrases from the dead lang- uage , the afternoon is spent in peaceful slumber. At 3:30, however, 13C comes to life again. Jesse Weller, Barry Vail, Jimmy Coon, Pat O'Donnell and Jack Morgan retire to the football field. Karen Albarda and Joan Smyth hurry to catch up with the affairs of a turbulent world in the U.N. Club. Diane Dover, Marjorie Knapp, Mary Coulthard and Julie Boyko practice walking across the stage for next year's Queen contest. ' In the foreground, Ray- mond Duplain gives a commentary on Nikita Krus- chev. Alan McDowell hurries to A. 81 P. where he is employed as robbery foiler. 13C has had the pleasure of holding several form parties at the homes ofg Noel Elson, Barry Vail Sheila McKnight, Diane Dover and Helen Dean. Our form representatives to the Student Council are Julie Boyko and Noel Elson. Our enthusiastic class president is Jack Morgan. Our Conriing Tower Reps. are Barry Vail and Diane Dover. In closing, 13C boys congratulate the girls on having such a wonderful choice of good-looking brutes and vice versa. -Pat O'Donnel, Jack Morgan, Lois Shallhorn. C12 Our form is made up of 27 girls and 2 boys. Nine girls made up the senior volleyball championship team. Five girls from our form also went to Mimico Collegiate in a volleyball tournament. They won the competition by winning all their games. These five girls were Orian Strachan, Bev. Dixon, Joan Hitchcock, Laura Lambie, and Connie Lyles. We had a Christmas party and instead of ex- changing gifts among ourselves we all bought toys which were taken to the Salvation Army Orphanage. Th is is the only party that we have had, but a to- bogganing party was planned for January 25th. CSP Eighteen young women and one lucky man make up the commercial special course of 1957-58. Fortunately our group has proved up to par, in spite of our size. In the fall, of '57 we found our- selves placing third in the Red Feather drive. La ter on we managed to herd up a victorious vol- leyball team. Our team, which never exceeded six players, included Fran Dewar, Joan Macdonald Bernice Ashford, Hazel Massey,Joan Grainger, Lo rraine Sainsbury, Carol Scott and Sandra Busby. We won every game, texcept onel. We would also like to emphasize the fact that in exam time,half the class turned up with 70 and better. Our Christmas party was celebrated fourth period on December 20th, other than that our form parties are what one might say non existent, partially due to the lack of the opposite gender. T12 We started our form in September with thirty boys, and have twenty-eight now. Bill McCarroll and Jon Lane left us. Our form is divided into four groups: The Auto specials, Drafting specials, Machine specials and Electric specials. Activities: The Electric specials had a hayride in the Fall and are planning to have one in the Spring. Three of our boys played on the football team, one on the Basketball team and one on the Hockey team. We have no interform Basketball this year but instead of it we are having interform Volleyball. Jim Drummond one of our boys was voted Vice-President of the Student Council. We tried hard to get him in as President but didn't succeed. Some of our boys will go to Ryerson, some to Waterloo College and some elsewhere, meaning that we'll all break up, only to remember those good old davs in T12.
