9F Our class representatives are Mary Ann Glebe- Student Council, Dawna Whittlesea -Girls athletics, and Bill Heighway-Boys athletics. In the fall term the girls played in the Volleyball tournament. The members of our team are Helen Moore, Vivien Warren, Carol Davidson, Sharon Burlington, Dawna Whittlesea, Tiina Parn, Lynne McNeil, Linda Moore and Phyllis Bezzo. The boys joined with 9E for their interform toot- ball schedule. The team :lid well and advanced to the semi-finals. Members of the team ire: John Nield, Leonard Sldnner, Bill Kent, Bill Farr, Robin Smart and John Kitay. The basketball schedule for the grade lX girls cannot begin until the senior tournament is finished, however, we have hopes of having a good team. The boys have two teams in the Basketball lea- gue. Members of team one are: David Sararas, John Nield, Leonard Skinner, Bill Farr, Bill Kent, Bill Heighway,a.nd Robin Smart. The second team members are: Ron Findlay, Tom Heath, Dave Ross, Ray Jones, Mike Patrick and Graeme Thompson. Over two thirds of our class were successful in obtaining over seventy percent in the Christmas examinations. Our top three students are Lynn Mc- Neil, Tiina Parn and Carol Davidson. We held our Christmas party in the girl's gym with our form teacher Miss Leckie. We played games and ate, the perfect combination to end the school term. -Robin Smart and Sally Thompson. C9A C9A came out of the Volleyball season with four wins in five games which made us contenders in the semi-finals. As a result of the sixth and most im- portant game against C9B we lost our hopes of win- ning the Volleyball Championship as did the C9A last year. At present we have our hearts set on the basketball so the other forms had better watch out. We held our Christmas Party on December 20th in room 202 under the supervision of Miss Camp- bell, our form teacher. We played games on the blackboards until it was announced that gifts were to be exchanged at which time we all took our seats. After the gifts had been opened and displayed, the committee which we had chosen, served refresh- ments. When the party ended and we left, we began our two week holiday which was welcomed by a.ll. C9B The volleyball championship, although it was won by a Grade 11 team, came close to being won by our team. Ln the first game although we were inexperienced we were triumphant. The second game was played against a fast moving team and we lost. But all the rest of the games excluding the last were played against experienced Grade 9 teams. The last game was a heartbreaker for we got 17 points but we could not get any more, so the game ended 31-17. We had a very enjoyable Christmas party on De- cember 2O, the last day of school. We exchanged gifts, and Mrs. Hawkey gave a thankyou speech for a beautiful desk set she received. It was very appropriate at the time. We then had refreshments and listened to records. All in all, it was a very enjoyable conclusion to our Fall Term. C9C C9C consists of eleven boys and nineteen girls and is headed by Miss Scott. The class nominated Richard Turner for the home room representative and he is doing a good job. To our disappointment the girls lost their chance to win the volleyball tournament. The boys came closer to that, though, in football: at least they got into the finals with T9C and lost. Then the boys were all fighting for the basketball championship and their hopes were built up high, but after the first game they dropped flost to T9B 6-45 so the second game consisted only of six players among whom were Ted Windsor tour coachl and Doug. Page four captainl. Also in the joyous season of Christmas there was a party which was attended by all. Everyone agreed it was a great success. -Pat Healey, Jean Smith. T9A Mr. Allard is T9A's form teacher this year. He has won an international poetry contest. T9A hadn't had a successful year in sports. We lost both games in football and have got a bad start in basketball. Our boys are either working or serving detentions. Our class brain is Bob Hilton, while Jim Chown is losing money on bets. T9B One of the bestknown classes in the school is T9B. This class has a group of boys who all pull together in sports and work. We are all interested in our shop work and studies and try to co-operate with our teachers and class mates. Mr. Lethbridge, our home room teacher, takes a personal pride in all ofus and if it wasn't for him we would not have the desire for learning that most of the boys in his class possess. -George Milnes. T9C This is the T9C class representative reporting. There are 27 boys in this class of 1957-58. Our class is outstanding because of the concentration of jokers who will do no work unless they are threatened with a .32, in their backs. However, what we lack in genius we make up in athletic prowess. We started out in the fall of the year by winning the Grade 9 rugby Championship. We also have great hopes of this form coming out ontop in the coming Basketball series. Despite the widely known fact that our class has the lowest LQ., of any comparable class in Canada, we undoubtedly have unparalleled esprit de corps. -Larry A. Welch. 71
