He let them stay, but on their way out, stopped Pow to express his amazement that the dog should enioy the movie. Yes agreed Bob. l'm surprised my- self, he din't care for the book.

As always the year iust past has seen new faces in the student enrollment and it is our hope that you will find the course of study interesting and will be encouraged to complete the full academic course as offered by this Collegiate and that all students may have the oppor- tunity of further education in any one of the fine Universities in this great land of ours. A good education is the very basis for a full and useful life and something you will always cherish in the days that lie ahead. The following verses convey the message l would like to leave with you: SUCCESS Success is not in getting rich or rising high to fame, lt's not alone in winning goals which all men hope to claim, lt's in the man you are each day, through happiness or care, lt's in the cheery words you speak and in the smile you wear. Success is in the way you walk the paths of life each day, lt's in the things you do and in the things you say, Success is in the glad hallo you give your fellow man, lt's in the laughter of your home and all the ioys you plan. Success is being big of heart and clean and broad of mind, lt's being faithful to your friends, and to the stranger kind, lt's in the children whom you love, and all they learn from you, Success deepnds on charcater and everything you do. DAVID M. BISHOP, Chairman of the Board of Education THE ORACLE Five Though not MacCausIand's ioy and pride, The dear chap takes us in his stride. We're not the brainy 12, ah me!

Ever since I can remember she has taken these spells and we are beginning to consider her incurable. First of all it was the blue dress, an antiquated horror of heavenly blue silk. This, dear Mama assured us, would make a beautiful blouse and the colour was a perfect match for little sister's eyes. For several days she moved as in a dream. Evidently prolonged concentration was necessary prior to the opera- tion. Sad to relate, the operation was not entirely successful, in fact the new Dior at la Mother so resembled a duster that it served in this humble capacity for the remaining years of its life. Sixteen But by far the most enterprising of her attempted transformations was of the green coat. lt was a putrid pea-green and fashioned in a style as out moded as the Victorian age which had inspired it, but then, as mother pointed out, the material was still good and waste not, want not--besides she needed a new skirt. At last the garment was ready for its triumphal debut. Oh, calamity! Due to some slight miscalculation lor was it wishful thinking'?l the width of the wearer exceeded that of the article to be worn by six whole inches and, as Father so kindly put it, when he had sufficiently controlled his mirth, it looked like the skin on a seasick sausage. Poor Mother, it was a crushing blow, but, l am glad to report, she converted the skirt into a patchwork rug for the Church Bazaar. After all, as Mother says, if at first you don't succeed, cut, cut and cut again! Olga Kennerley, l3B fmsr Pmzf speed limit zo M.P.H. Where in the world would you expect to find a country which restricts all means of trans- portation to twenty miles an hour? The place I found was The Island of Bermuda, the oldest self-governing Colony in the British Empire. This Colony is made up of one hundred and eighty odd islands seven hundred miles from New York City. The total land area of the islands is nineteen square miles, a length of twenty-four miles when ioined by road, and varying from one-half to two miles in width. Bermuda is divided into ten parishes which were named after the shareholders, the original owners of the islands in 1612. Bermuda has a population of thirteen-and- a-half thousand white and twenty-three and-a- half thousand coloured. The inhabitants pay no income tax, but the Government collects the necessary revenue on goods brought into the Colony, and from persons leaving lto leave Bermuda a charge of one pound is imposed.l To enter Bermuda one must have a return ticket, and to stay longer than six months, at any one time, special permission is required. The taxis that operate are very reason- able, fourteen cents a mile. Automobiles were first introduced in 1946, horse and carriage is still a means of transportation available to the visitor. Within its boundaries Bermuda con- THE ORACLE tains the oldest church, St. Peter's, and the old- est school, Warwick Academy, in the Western hemisphere. Bermuda can also claim more cars per mile of road than any other country in the world. The policemen have a unique means of transport-by bicycle. The smallest drawbridge to be found any- where is in Somerset, when open the bridge leaves a space of eighteen inches for the masts of yachts to pass through. This is the place where a large farm consists of two or three acres. The farmer in Bermuda has to import feed from other countries, the great cost in- volved makes cows and milk very scarce. The maiority of food eaten by the inhabitants comes from Australia and New Zealand. The daily newspapers, The Royal Gazette published in the morning, and The Mid-Ocean News in the afternoon, bring to mind an announcement pub- lished to the effect, Cabbage will be banned from importation to the Colony for several months . The liners coming to Bermuda from ports around the world call and dock on the left side of the main street, on the right are the most exclusive shops. The Colony has two small towns, Hamilton, the capital, and St. George's which was the capital when the is- lands were first colonized. Hamilton has a very amusing sign at the city limits, Parking in Hamilton Without Lights Permitted-Speed Limit 15 m.p.h. The means of transportation in Bermuda is a maior problem to many-the reason, only one car is allowed to a family. The cars are all English-made and travel on the left hand side of the road. The drivers of all cars must be twenty-one to obtain a licence. If one has not reached the age of twenty-one he is al- lowed an auto-cycle ia bicycle with a one- horse-power motor fitted between the pedals.l Those below sixteen have the privilege of rid- ing a bicycle or walking. To buy a new car for your old one as a trade is a feat in itself. Bermuda law states that one must own a car for eighteen months before selling and the in- tended buyer must be without a car for eighteen months before he gets his new car. The ex- ception to this law is if the old car is off the Island, a new one may be purchased im- mediately. Most car owners put Bermuda's ex- clusive export business to work. The ship carrying the new cars embarks the old one for England where it is sold in Britain a few months later. The Governor Sir Alexander Hood is the only person on the lslands who is allowed THE ORACLE a limousine. He and all other Bermuda drivers must obey the speed limit which is fifteen-miles per hour in the urban areas and twenty miles per hour in the country. The reason for the low speed limit is the narrow and winding roads. Every dwelling has some feature different from the others, no two are of the same archi- tectural design. Ninety per-cent of the houses are built of coral which is found six inches be- low the surface of the ground. All the houses are painted bright colours-pink, green, blue and yellow, but all have one thing in common, a white roof. The reason for the white roof is to collect and purify the rain which is then collected in a cistern and used as drinking water. llf the supply of water becomes ex- hausted the Water Company will fill the tank for a price.i All the houses go by name. Gay Shadows, Green Gables, Highlawn, Mazarine, are typical names found in the telephone book listings. Land in Bermuda is very cheap, just four thousand dollars for half an acre! The countryside is picturesque with the many cedar, and palmetto trees that line the roadway. On many of the side roads you find the Easter-lily, the crimson Poinsetta, and Oleander growing. A common sight is patches with banana, orange, grapefruit, lemon, and coconut trees. The banana tree takes over one year to grow and bears only one bunch of fruit. The tree dies after giving the fruit. Vege- tables grown in Canada once a year can be grown in Bermuda three times a year in the sub-tropical weather. The only season the ground rests is during .luly and August when it is too hot and dry. On Christmas day l have picked strawberries from the garden. The lighthouse on Gibbs Hill, the highest point on the Island, is three hundred and eighty feet above sea level. Along-side the lighthouse is a flag-pole that can tell many stories. Each stay from it represents some area of water, or St. George's or Hamilton Harbour. When a series of flags are raised on one of the stays it signifies that a ship has entered Bermuda waters and has a general cargo for the Colony, and is carrying Royal Mail and passengers from England. The flags are raised for every ship entering or leaving home waters. The light in the tower is a story by itself. The source of light comes from a little gas mantle three inches tall and two wide, this light is magnified by five sections of prisms which produce a light seen by ships twenty-five miles from shore. The great prisms which float in Seventeen mercury, revolve around the light source. I looked at the five beams penetrating the dark and saw the light for a short distance. To be told that the light is travelling for miles is hard to believe. Bermuda offers entertainment that will fill anyone's desires. For swimming, the South Shore is waiting with its pure coral sands and lovely turquois blue water. The temperature of the water varies from seventy-five to eighty- five degrees. lThe water temeprature is usual- ly ten above the air temperature.l For the fisherman there are over five hundred species of fish to choose from. Yacht racing in various classes takes place practically the whole year round. For those enthusiastic for the national sport cricket, many teams are out for the visi- tors support. The Hamilton, and the famous Coral Beach Club offer fine tennis courts. Many golf courses are located around the Island, which attract overseas visitors to the tourna- ments that are sponsored. The Coral Reef gardens gives the land- lubber a chance to explore the fish and plant life of the ocean floor without getting wet. From a glass bottomed boat he can watch the multi-coloured fish in reds, yellows, browns, greens, and blues swimming in and out the coral formations of beautiful fern-like shapes. At the end of an exhaustive day around the lsland or on the beach the theatres in Hamilton offer pleasant relaxation. In the only apartment Hotel is Bermuda's legitimate theatre, which stages plays with actors from London, Broadway and Hollywood. Hamilton has its hundred. The and others is, theatre. The a night and Little Theatre which seats two difference between this theatre that it is built within another Little Theatre has one show changes its bill daily with new films from the the two other film studios of the world. ln main theatres seats can be reserved. In those theatres the coloured people are restricted to the ground floor and the white people are seat- ed in the balcony. All that remains in a perfect day is home. Home to the pink house with its white roof on Riddell's Bay ,off the Middle Road. A last look out the window where I see the beam from the Lighthouse, and the gentle lapping of the ocean plays the lullaby to pleasant slum- bers. David Chalmers, I 2B Eighteen Buster Sometimes people adopt dogs, and some- times dogs adopt people. One of the most determined cases of adoption by a dog that I ever knew was that of Buster. I didn't blame Buster at all, in fact I had every sympathy with him. His own family were very nice people and quite kind to him, but they were dull. They were the sort of people who thought that if you fed a dog regularly and gave him a roof over his head, that was all that he could possibly need. We were living in a new brick house near the outskirts of Woodstock. Buster's people lived in one of the new bungalows that had sprung up across the road. The family con- sisted of the father, two grown sons who were away all day at business, and a stout middle- aged mother who divided her time between do- ing her housework and listening to the radio. Buster was a lanky, half-grown, brown- and-white hound puppy, with flappy ears, and enormous paws, built for romping. He was a sociable dog, and what he wanted was some- one to pass the day with. At any rate, he de- cided that our family suited him a great deal better than his own. He began by appearing casually at odd moments in the dooryard, just loitering about in an expectant sort of way. It was useless to ignore him, because sooner or later you were bound to catch his eye, and once you did, the mischief was done. From that moment on, nothing discouraged him. Indeed it was im- possible to offend him. For one thing, his own family never went for walks as we did. Buster loved walks and nearly every morning, he and I would tramp through the pine woods. Every evening, last thing, when I went to close the front door, I would hear a gentle tail-thumping from the darkest corner of the porch. It was Buster, settling down to guard our house for the night. One always has a guilty feeling at the idea of luring somebody else's dog away from them, though to be sure Buster never needed any luring-quite the contary. To salve our conscience, we sent him home whenever we could, never an easy iob, for he was singularly dense about commands of any sort. He was so affectionate and anxious for our company that often we were apt to be rather weak- minded about the whole business. THE ORACLE All of us, that is, except Granniep Grannie was the only one who succeeded in being at all stern with Buster. She was very fond of dogs but felt that a dog's proper duty was guarding his own home. One morning as I was looking out the window, I saw Buster coming up the front path with his bed! He was dragging one of the bungalow lady's best parlour rugs! He hauled it up on the porch, laid it down and sat on it, wagging his tail and looking very proud as if to say, There! Now aren't you pleased? Just feast your eyes on that! Of course, we hur- riedly took the rug back. Fall turned to winter, but even the snow couldn't keep Buster from our threshold. We still went for our walks and Buster always came for his usual visit after supper. We let him stay till bedtime and then firmly put him out. He would patter noisily off the porch and wait until he heard the house bolted for the night, and saw a little later, the light turned out in my room. You see, Buster and I had our own con- spiracy. I slept on the ground floor and every night would open the window and grab an armful of cold, snowy dog. Buster slept at the foot of my bed, and first thing in the morning I would let him out the window. He would dash straight across the road. Then, to my puzzlement he would squeeze himself under the front porch, only to crawl out the next moment. Every morning I grew more curious so I finally decided to call on Buster's lady and find out where Buster was supposed to sleep. We had a very pleasant chat and by and by I asked her casually, where Buster slept at night. She told me that Buster seemed to like sleeping under the house. Every morn- ing she continued, when I open the kitchen door to call him to breakfast, he comes out from under the porch, stretching and yawning like he'd had a real good night and he would always be iust as warm and dry as can be! This gave away Buster's trick. The bungalow had no cellar, but was built on a brick foun- dation, open in places where a dog could creep through. It was here that Buster was supposed to sleep. No wonder he seemed to dash over so quickly to the bungalow, knowing that a good breakfast was awaiting him. There was no need to worry about Buster! A dog as clever as that could take care of himself any- where. Sandra Moyer, IIC THE ORACLE Tomorrow---What? To-day the nestlings from the old elm tree flew away to take up the threads of their own lives. For several weeks they have been pre- paring for this day-trying their wings and learning to avoid potential dangers. Now they are on their own. Theirs is the will which shapes their future, theirs is the skill on which their race depends. As we too prepare to leave the nest, the natural obstacles to survival are overshadowed by the ominous political storm clouds gathering in the East. We face the future not without some fear and uncertainty. Shall we flee be- fore the steady advance of communism until, terrified, we find freedom and liberty a hide- ous nightmare and finally surrender to defeat? Shall we instead boldly set out to beat our frail wings against the unyielding barrier of the Soviet blockade until, exhausted, we fall to pave the way for further communistic progress? Perhaps we shall choose the other path, effi- ciently strengthening our home positions we shall prepare for the inevitable conflict with foresight and courage as we watch the flaws in the iron curtain become magnified by the stress of time. We, the young people of Canada have within our grasp these three alternatives for the future. May we choose wisely, and act courageously. Olga Kennerley, l3B Family of the Bride At last it is all over. I notice too that I am not the only one reclining in my stocking feet. As I glance around I see that all the ladies in the family have kicked off their high heels. What a time, I do feel sorry for Daddy. He has literally collapsed on the couch. He certainly looks as if he had been through the mill. And how did this all start? Well, the cause of it all was my oldest sister. She got married. Now I have nothing against a girl getting married but I never believed one little wedding could cause such an upheaval in one household. From the moment Margaret turned up with the diamond on her finger our house has been in the most unsettled state. Only Margaret was calm and detached. Mother, of course, was in top form. The bride's dress was a dream and Marg. was beautiful, but Mother felt the train was maybe an inch too long, the Nineteen bodice was maybe a little too tight here or too loose there. No one dared speak of the bride's presents as loot when Mother was around. Daddy did bear up remarkably well in spite of having to get dressed up in his striped pants and boiled shirt. But in spite of all the complications every thing went off beau- tifully. The bride looked like an angel. The groomsman's duties were performed faultlessly. The bridesmaid looked charming in her cherry red velvet attire with ivy leaves in her hair Ithat's mel. And oh, I nearly forgot the groom. He was charming too. But now Daddy and I have come to a mutual agreement. When it comes time for me to go, he will slip me S500 or SIOOO and I will go quietly. Nancy Ann Marchen, IIC The Perfect Plan The ship settled lightly upon the velvety- red grass of Venus, sending little waves bounc- ing across the flower-carpeted field to the tangled woods beyond. Life began again, slowly, ever so slowly, after three and a half danger-packed years in space. No one, had any idea of how the trip had progressed, for they had been in a state of suspended anima- and now were reviving on a new world. The commander in charge pressed the little red button, the third on his left, which put motion the automatic Refresher Robot . tion into Half an hour later the sixty-five men and wo- men from Earth were assembled in the roomy cafeteria where they received their respective instructions and were then sent to perform their assigned duties. Necessary precautions had been made to assure their every comfort during their treacher- ous, history-making expedition, undertaken to seek out a base upon which man could start anew. Earth was in her dying days, ravaged by man's peace weapons and drained of her minerals by the weapon-makers. This ship contained the first party of a long succession of groups, the second of which was due five years hence. Bibles, land instruments, clothing, enter- tainment, a two-year food supply, all the known information of the new planet necessary for their safety, ammunition, everything was taken care of. ' The Commander laid one hand on the combination door, the only way out of the tightly closed machine, and extended his other Twenty hand for the envelope containing the vital numbers. No one offered him the envelope . . . no one had it! Gerald Parsons Where No Child Knocks In Vain We cried unto the Lord for help. So ran the minutes of the Ladies Commit- tee at Toronto Hospital for Sick Children in 1878. In answer to that prayer of 75 years ago there stands now a monument to their faith - known world-wide as the largest and finest child health centre in the world- Where no child knocks in vain . The present structure of buff brick is the sixth, for, as the need grew so did the build- ings. The first, launched by prayer as quoted in my opening sentence, was started by Mrs. S. McMaster lfounder of Moulton College and wife of founder of McMaster Universityl with a thirty dollar donation. A house was rented for S320 a year, and six cots were put up in the chilly atmosphere. Maggie, a badly burned little girl was the first patient. Since then well over three million children have been given first aid and long time treat- ment for mortal need and minor ailments. In 1950 the huge buff structure on Univer- sity Ave. built by donations was completed. Preceeding its official opening conducted tours were offered to the public to view this great achievement. Everybody wanted to see it and everybody came away proud and impressed. Two weeks later, a strange procession formed and started-the like of which had never been seen before on a city thoroughfare and may never be again. From the dingy old red brick pile on Elizabeth Street came a string of ambulances, escorted by motor cycle cops while following were young patients able to walk, wearing bandages, limping with crutches -and so forth but all full of happy expectation and importance. Police, Red Cross, St. John and hospital staff members manned the stretchers, shepherd- ed the walkers and the GREAT TRANSFER was made. The new arrivals were iubilant at what was to be seen, used, and enioyed. A match- less routine of perfection was carried out, and still continues to be carried out and will con- tinue, D.V. for many years to come.

Emrys Jenkins Let's look Backwards To The Future As the students and teachers have chang- ed through the years, so has the school build- ing itself. The new school as we know it now, was officially opened on January 19, 1940. Six years later, in 1946, with a student body of six hundred and fifty, for the first time two grade thirteens were made. lt's strange that now with a student body of over nine hundred and fifty we still have only two grade thirteens. ln that same year there was an over-abundance of girls in the upper grade. Mr. Berry finds that he has very few girls in his form. Let's look back to the activities. In forty- seven, for the first time, we had a New Year's dance, which became known as the TinseI Toss , in 1952. ln 1948, the Editor of the Oracle suggested a queen for the At Home and perhaps a Debating and Dramatic club. Also that year's Oracle was the first time for the Graduates' Pictures. Old activities fade away. Take the Literary Society, which several years ago was one of the outstanding clubs of the school. Today it is gone. We can look forward to new things too. We will see old things fade and new things appear. We look forward to the new addi- tion to the present school. We can visualize the second Collegiate which is now being planned. We can look forward by looking back to the past. We can say, we were part of all of those things.

In spite of its coun- terfeit humanitarian implications the doctrine of Marx and Lenin spells nothing but tyranny and disaster for the human race. In its trail of slaughter and invective we see the fallen, desecrated monuments of freedom of govern- ment, freedom of speech, freedom of faith and individual liberty of action and thought. Freedom of speech involves freedom of the press. To-day the right of printing one's beliefs is perhaps transcending the actual li- berty of public speech because of the former's widespread publication and influence compar- ed to the limited and fleeting record of public oratory. Men like Patrick Henry and Thomas Jefferson thundered when their pockets were touched. Imagine their indignant eloquence if an attempt to gag their lips had been made! Contemporary literature is an exposition of these ideals. The amazing diversity of top- ics under discussion has never been equalled in the annals of mankind. Style and method of attack are infinite, controversy wages on the merits and demerits of an article. Only under a democratic way of life can these conditions exist. Whether it be Churchill or Endicott, Pope Pius or Mickey Spillane, George Drew or Louis St. Laurent,-all have the right to publish and publicize their opinions. History records the fact that literature has flourished in great civilizations, civilizations based on liberty, equality and fraternity. Ancient Greece had Pericles, Plato and Oemos- thenes while Rome had Cato, Livy and Cicero. Hugo, Voltaire and Zola were French while Milton, Shakespeare and Shaw were British. America had her Mark Twain and her Poe while Canada had O'Arcy, McGee and Pauline Johnson. To-day in Canada, a controversy is rag- ing over the question of whether a iournalist is required to publish or reveal his sources of information. That ubiquitous reporter, Blair Fraser, is the obiect of this smear against the press. As long as information cannot be prov- ed erroneous, no person is obligated to reveal trade secrets . If Blair Fraser must sacrifice his personal freedom to defend the ideals in which he be- Twenty-Three A , ,1 ' , ., 4 f v . v. v, LJ K. I , - hw - u , - ' rye I Q 1,4 Vi , A. 1 ,Q tv.

Wrapped up in its fate, saved or lost with it, are not only the voice of the states- man, but the instructions of the pulpit, press and school. A Canada thus established, dis- enthralled and free, can and will continue her mission in the cause of peace, of freedom, and of civilization. David Allan, Literary Editor Synopsis of 1953-54 Sports Year Coach Len Turner deserves a lot of credit for the splendid manner in which he brought another W.O.S.S.A. Rugby Championship back to W.C.I., which incidentally is the third straight championship he has helped to win in the three years he has been with Woodstock. He had a bit of trouble however in the basketball cir- cuit with the new-comers into Tri-County Con- ference, namely Tillsonburg. We have always been very close to Tillsonburg during the sport- ing part of the year, but not always until this year did they loin our group. The Black Ma rauders were formerly in the London group, but because of travelling difficulties and school problems, they decided to join in the Wood- stock, Simcoe and Stratford group. The new group has been called the Tri-County Confer- ence and should prove to provide more and better competition then in the past few years, since St. Jeromes college was dropped from the league. The W.C.I. hockey team didn't get off to such a good start this season as they lost out to Stratford collegiate in a two game, points to count series. I wish Coach Turner had a little more time than he has at the present, be- cause he certainly could develop a good team with some of the good players we have at W.C.I. The Track team made a big step to im- provement last year, with one of the biggest turn-outs for field and track ever witnessed for many years. It is certainly an indication that more boys are taking a keen interest and we hope they continue to do so. In the Basketball Conference the Red Devils held second spot with Tillsonburg on top. This was no indication however that the Marauders were more power- ful, because each time both teams meet their scores were only separated by 4-5 points. I think we'Il beat them next year. Twenty-Four . Mr. Killenger and Mr. Dadd, two new members of our teaching staff are to be con- gratulated on their fine work of starting up a Wrestling team. This is the first of its kind to be introduced to this school. Best of luck fellows. The interform basketball is iust about completed with grade 13B beating 12A in a thrilling contest for the' Championship. The score of this game was 'IO-8, which indicates a thrill in itself. The Grade nine winners have not as yet completed their schedule. I think this year's sports have been very successful as a whole, and I hope they con- tinue to be so. ln closing I would like to recite an old proverb lf you can't play a sport, BE ONE . J. O'Bright, Boys' Sports Editor Wrestling in the Secondary Schools Wrestling in one form or the other is one of the oldest types of athletic competition on record. It dates back to the earliest Olympic competition, and forms of combative events are a matter of record in our historical docu- ments. In the present era, wrestling is includ- ed in the athletic programs of most of our Universities, but as yet, in very few Secondary Schools. This situation is gradually changing, and within a few years wrestling will be a vital part of the High School athletic and Physical Education programs. b Amateur wrestling is entirely different than the professional wrestling so many are familiar with as a result of T.V. Although the basis of both is the same, amateur wrestling is not as spectacular but is much more strenu- ous than professional wrestling. This is point- ed out by the fact that amateur matches are of no more than fifteen minutes duration, termin- ated either by a decision at the end of the expired time or by a fall at any time during the match. Contestants participate in the weight class corresponding to the natural weight of their body, ln High School, wrestling matches are eight minutes in length, the first period two minutes long, and periods two and three, three minutes each. The weight divisions begin at 95 lbs. and go up every I0 lbs. to 185 lbs., making a total of ten weight divisions-ample opportunity for a great many to participate in a great conditioning sport-Wrestling. THE ORACLE l Spirit Spirit as defined in a leading dictionary means-one who takes a leading part. Cer- tainly there is no better place to illustrate this than in school. Spirit walks hand in hand with hard work up the road to success. One man cannot make the grade without the other to help him. , A person who takes part in extra curricu- lar activities finds himself surrounded by the best people in the school. But please don't think because a person does not run up and down a rugby field or sings hit songs on a stage, he is inferior. More often than not in sports or other societies a person shows best his spirit in every day class work. l think the meaning-state of mind-best describes this condition. You yourself know that unless your mind contains the will to do a thing you might as well not start it. Once in a while in our everyday life we come across a person who is rather gloomy and without think- ing we say his siprits are lagging . This is one of many occasions we encounter spirit without recognizing it. When asked what his conception of spirit was, a well-known citizen said Spirit to me means vigour. That is the more endurance and perseverance you have the better chance you have of coming out on top. Summing this up we find we have a per- son who thinks carefully, takes action and has the stamina to see a thing through. How do you obtain this high standard? The only good answer to this is, in school. When you sit in the stands and watch a game you play iust as important a part in school siprit as the man on the field. Don Cole, Co-Editor of Activities Summary of Girls' Sports for i953-54 Girls' sports in the Woodstock Collegiate have improved each year. Since the number of girls attending this school has increased considerably, competition has been much stronger. One of the main events last year was Gymkhana '53, This was a successful Physi- cal Education Demonstration held in the Wood- stock Arena. THE ORACLE We did not have any championship teams in Basketball or Volleyball this year but the girls are iust saving up their energy for next year when they will capture the W.O.S.S.A. titles! This year we are losing a very capable in- structor, namely Mrs. Tatham. She has worked very hard these past years teaching and train- ing us the different skills of the various sport activities. The old saying, Practise what you preach is certainly true in this case. Mrs. Totham has been an active member of the Y.W.C.A. Basketball team and has displayed her ability many times. We welcome Mrs. Finlay, better known as Miss Jenson, as head of the P.T. Department for next year. Editorial Briefs Best wishes and success in future years are offered to Miss Dunlop at Toronto Western Tech., Miss Jensen and Miss McKim who are married, and also Mr. Dyck at Kitchener. 1 if il We welcome to the staff Miss Waugh, Miss McKinnon, Mr. Harvey from Toronto Uni- versity, Mr. Kellenger, Mr. Dadd from Western University and Miss Forbes from Carldon Col- lege. i lk X Congratulations are extended to the Stu- dent Council for their excellent dances and successful toy campaign.

The first one is: We have a good reputation . lionism in Woodstock stands for the decent way of life. The second meaning, We speak with pride , is also well earned by the Lions Club. Lions have led the way in many endeavours, have given support to many worthy proiects. To the student body of the Woodstock Collegiate Institute the Lions Club would extend congratulations on the printing of another worthy Year Book, and would express a deep interest in the life of each student.

I EDUCATION :S Bucs BUSINESS For several years the Woodstock Board of Education was able to provide accommodation for all the students who were registered in five public schools and one Collegiate Institute. To take care of the recent increase in enrolment the Board has had to build two new public schools and an additional six rooms at the Collegiate. It is hoped to have this extra accommodation at the Collegiate ready sometime this spring. To take care of future needs the Board has under consideration the building of other public schools and a new collegiate. THE WOODSTOCK BOARD OF EDUCATION D. M. BISHOP JAS. A. BAIN Chairman Secretary-Treasurer Bay ' parts... Boys' Athletic Society The Boys' Athletic Society sponsored the Rugby Tea Dances and ioined with the Girls' Athletic Association to produce several Athletic Nights. EXECUTIVE President - - - Bob Pow Vice President ---- Olen Tucker Secretary - Bob Murray Treasurer - - Mr. Berry Staff Advisor Mr. Turner Senior W.0.S.S.A. Rugby Team Wayne Pogo Palmer-Quarter back- in his first year, up from the iuniors, proved to be very capable of mastering his teammates, and lead them brilliantly to a W.O.S.S.A. Tri- County Championship. Bill Sanders-Quarter back-Bill, another player up from the iuniors, was used sparingly but when in action showed good signs handl- ing the pivot spot and should be very effective next year. Bob Poo Pow-Left Half-turned in one of the most sensational efforts, ever recorded on the gridiron at W.C.l. After being shifted by Coach Len Turner from quarter back to left half Poo made no mistake and he went on from there to be the teams highest scorer. Philip Poole-Right and Left Half-turned in a terrific effort this season, especially play- ing defensively at right end where he smashed up many pretty plays. Ted Taylor-Full Back-Ted played very good ball in his first year with the Seniors. Although he did not see much action offensive- ly, he was a standout defensively and should help strengthen next year's team. Peter Pete Hughes-Left Guard-also playing with a broken finger, managed to play terrific ball. Pete was a key blocker on our line and made many fine tackles. Harvey Martin--Right Guard-although this was Harvey's first year, he seemed to ac- commodate himself quickly on the powerful front line of the Red Devils, aiding in large gains made by the team. THE ORACLE Jack Marman--Right Tackle-in his first year helped to a great extent the Red Devil cause. He came up with some fine blocks and added extra strength to the defensive line. Bob Tony Ogden - Right and Left Guard-our morale builder and utility man, played defensively at almost any spot on the line. Tony is up for his first year in Senior and will really aid next year's team. Fred Watt-Left End-iust out for senior this fall, he proved to be a very good tackler. With this year's experience he should aid next year's team. Fraser Blaze Currah-Right and Left Guard-in his first year of Senior football, was used mostly defensively, and he should be very good in helping to make up next year's team. Peter Pete Pitcher-Right End-along with his big brother from Barrie aided the Red Devils a great deal. Pete caught some very nice passes, which might indicate he will be going places for the squad next year. Don Downing-Right and Left Guard-in his first year up from the iuniors he played very well. Don was used mostly as a utility man defensively this season, but should be a key man next year. Bill White-Full Back-Bill started this season as brilliantly as he finished last year's, but due to a badly iniured knee shortly after the London Beck game was subdued for the rest of the season. Tom Oleksiuch - Right Tackle- Turk was with us until mid-season before he had to leave on his teaching career up north. Up until then he played wonderful ball, charging and hitting low to put the opposition out of the play. Dave Stevenson-Left or Right Tackle- His first year out, Dave played some fine ball. He tackled well and played mostly on the defence. Tom Moult Moulton - Full Back - Big Moult proved to be a big ground gainer this season on several occasions when he displayed some very beautiful runnings. And since this was his first year, you can all look forward to seeing even better action next year. Jim Pitcher-Right and Left Half-Big Jim came to W.C.l. from Barrie with brother Pete and ioined the Red Devils this fall to help strengthen the back field considerably. Bruce Snatch Knock-Flying Wing-led the plays for large gains in some fine offensive blocks. Although Bruce is not the biggest boy out there, he could really hit.

Lloyd Tiny Robertson - Centre - Tiny was our big centre this fall, filling the shoes of Moose McDonald from last year's squad very effectively. This was Tiny's first year, and oh! how he could open those holes in the line. Jack Carter-Left Guard-Jack was one of our hardest hitting, fastest moving men on the line this season. .lack had a very good year, backed up with experience from last year's team. He always managed to bust through and block the crucial kick. Don Cole-Left Tackle-in his second year of senior, played very hard at all times, and was responsible for opening many large gaps in the opposing team's lines. Olen Hawkeye Tucker - Left End - Hawkeyed and always a good'stand by, up from last year's squad, proved his worth by handing in one of his best years. A terrific two way player. Bob Mert Murray-Right Guard-was small like Jack Carter but hit like a freight train, leaving large holes in the opposing lines. Mert also displayed some fine tackling. Eric Harry Russel - Right Tackle-al- though Eric was late coming back to school from his European vacation, he made no mis- takes in accommodating himself and soon got into the swing of things. He served his pur- pose on the line very well, helping to make possible the large gains that were made through other lines. Dick Bowman - Right End - This was Dick's first year, but this was hardly recog- nizeable because of the splendid pass receiv- ing and blocking that Dick made throughout the season. He played mostly offensively. Tom Weiner Watson - Left Tackle -- though playing with a broken finger through- out most of the season, it still did not affect Weiner's sensational brand of ball. He was in on many of the tackles and was a top notch blocker. Bob Berlette-Though almost always out- weighed by the opposing end, Bob never back- stepped an inch. Bob knew how to fake that line backer to get into the open for a pass. Th irty-Two W.C.l. Senior Rugby T953 W.C.l. AT LONDON BECK, SEPTEMBER 21 With the rugby season for '53 under way, the first game of the season was played at London Beck. The game, though exhibition, was hard fought, and close, till the last 3 min- utes when big Jim Pitcher broke it wide open on a 5 yard plunge on a handoff from quarter Bob Pow. The Red Devils ground attack show- ed much promise for the coming year. The final score was 7-2 for the Red Devils. W.C.l. AT STRATFORD, OCTOBER 2 Our first league game of the new Tri- County loop turned out to be a heart-breaker, The boys from W.C.l. couldn't get untracked, and a determined Stratford team handed us a l-O setback for their first victory over us in a long time. The point was scored on the second- last play of the game, as Lefler kicked a single for the Strats. Pow was a stand-out in both his kicking and signal calling. However, he couldn't do it alone. TILLSONBURG AT W.C.l., OCTOBER 16 With Pow again leading the way, and some terrific work by the glory-less linemen the Red Devils defeated Tillsonburg 20-5 in a hard- fought game. Oly Tucker's tackling and Jack Carter's blocking made the difference, and with every team member fighting, Pow passed, ran, and kicked the boys to a well deserved victory. Big Poo scored two touchdowns and kicked 5 extra points as well as passing to Milburn in the end zone for the only other touchdown of the game. Tillsonburg's points were scored on a fumble by the Red Devils, but they still didn't have enough to beat us. W.C.l. AT SIMCOE-OCTOBER 22 Again the team worked well as we con- tinued to trample everything in front of us. Simcoe fell victims for the second straight time to the tune of l7-O. Tom Moulton ran 80 yards through the centre for a touchdown on a spectacular play that killed every Simcoe hope. Pow and Phil Poole wound up the scor- ing, and Pow kicked the extra points again. The line was a standout, and they kept Simcoe off balance all afternoon. Don't stop now, boys! SIMCOE AT W.C.l.-OCTOBER 23 Still smouldering from their first defeat, our boys displayed ci complete reversal of form in trampling Simcoe 28-l. Pow scored 23 THE ORACLE -1 lcount eml points as he ran from the half back spot. Tom Moulton was moving the sticks regularly, and the whole team displayed the co-ordination and spirit of a really good team. Moulton scored the only other touch-down, while Knack was rouged on Bezzo's kick for Simcoe's only point. STRATFORD AT W.C.l.-OCTOBER 28 A superb effort by all, some terrific runn- ing and blocking, and a rock-hard line spelled a shut-out victory over our perennial rivals from Stratford. Scoring a mere 46 points, our boys gained revenge for the 1-O setback from Stratford. Bob Pow came up with a 21 point effort for the afternoon, and Jim Pitcher scored two touchdowns in a massacre which reminds us of Gen. Custer's last stand. Palmer pitched two beautiful passes to Oly Tucker, and Moult wound up the scoring on a smash from the five. Hope Stratford knows they're playing rugby next time. WOODSTOCK AT TILLSONBURG-NOVEMBER 4 In a do-or-die struggle for Tri-County honours, we again became champs of our league as we defeated a tough Tillsonburg team 14-O. As usual, Pow again starred as he scored 9 of our points. Phil Poole picked up a blocked kick behind Tillsonburg's line, and that was all we needed. Some fine play by Pogo Palmer and some good tackling by Milburn featured our last league game. A real good season, boys! Our congratulations to you. DISTRICT PLAY-OFF LONDON CENTRAL AT W.C.I. Although we took an 18-O beating, the boys displayed lots of intestinal fortitude as they fought the powerful Golden Ghosts. The line made the difference, as Central opened up huge holes over our smaller, less experienced line. Bob Pow got away some beautiful kicks, and Pogo threw several nice passes, but they were iust too good for us. Led by Dale Creighton and Jack Hillier, they over-powered us in every department. However, we have nothing to be ashamed of, for we fought hard and did our best. Central went on to win the Western Ontario championship. We can always fall back on the old Brooklyn proverb, Wait till next year! A good rugby season is over, and we hope a better one is coming up next year. Congratu- lations, fellahs!

Late in the first period Eric Russell was sent off for elbowing. About a minute later Wayne Pogo Palmer took a pass from Frank Wilkins and fired the puck past Justason. Stratford came back in the dying minutes of the period to tie it up with Shantz getting an unassisted goal. Much protest was made by the Woodstonians against their goal because the siren had sounded for the end of the period but apparently the referee didn't hear it and the goal was allowed. Harry Chattington put Woodstock ahead in the early moments of the period with a goal assisted by Dick Chattington. About mid-way through the period Petrie of Stratford tied it up on a pass from Snale. There was a penalty- infested period with Harry Chattington, Wayne Palmer and Eric Russell getting the thumb from the referee. Cupola Girven of Stratford, got two minors. Stratford dominated the play in the third and final period scoring five goals. A brief tussle between Wayne Palmer of Wood- stock and Pigeon of Stratford resulted in each of them receiving a minor penalty. I Field Day The annual field day got under way a bit earlier than usual this year. lt was held on September 23 at Victoria park. The weath- er was perfect for the track and field events, however very few competitors took part. The day started with a very colourful parade, from the school to the park, followed by the athletic events which began approximately lO:30 and lasted until 4:00. The qualifications for the competitions were as follows: Juvenile-I3 yrs. under Junior-14 yrs. Intermediate-I6 yrs. Senior-17 over Bobby Pow emerged the senior champ with Jack O'Bright the runner-up. In the Inter- mediate class, big Tom Moulton had very little trouble to win this group. Wayne Helmer won the Juvenile championships, while Peter Wendling and Frank Wilkins tied for top hon- THE ORACLE ours for the Junior crown. A cup was awarded to each individual champion by our Principal Mr. Ferguson at the assembly the following week. The congratulations of the school go to all those boys for their well deserved hon- ours, and we hope they can keep it up.

No basketball game or dance is complete without a member of the club on the iob. Those who iust look at the pictures in this book are indebted to Mr. Kitching and the camera club for their fine iob. Girls' Trumpet Band This year the band has a new leader in the person of Sheila Scott. Sheila has a diffi- cult iob on her hands but is proving herself very capable.

Music Club CHOIR President - - - Elizabeth Karn Secretary - - Mary Tull Accompanist - - - Barbara Franklin ORCHESTRA President ----- Murray Shantz Secretary - - - Nuala Bell Accompanists - Marlene Love, David Allen It would be difficult to imagine our as- semblies without music. We owe Miss Kellerman and the music club a vote of thanks for their contribution to the assemblies. The music club also takes part in our commencement exercises and the time when they really shine is in the annual operetta. The strains of music float through the halls for many months in advance of the production making us very much aware of the time and work required. This year's performance, Pirates of Penzance should prove to be a worthy effort if performances of past years are any indication. The choir also attended services at Chalmers United Church at which time they sang the Anthem. ln the past few years dancing has been introduced into the operetta and this year is to be no exception. There are several delight- ful dances skilfully performed under the direc- tion of Florence Riley. The girls in the dance scenes are: Ruth Armour, Mary Tull, Carolyne Flood, .lean Kennedy, Jean Lapworth, Nancy Climo, Kay Swance and Florence Riley. Operetta This year's production was The Pirates of Penzance or The Slave of Duty, under the cap- able direction of Miss Kellerman who was aid- ed by Mr. Kitching, Mr. Barr, and Miss Waugh, with Florence Riley directing the dancing. The story itself is about a band of pirates with a soft spot in their hearts for Orphans. The result? Everyone they rob says he is an orphan. Maior-General Stanley lAl Lennoxl also uses this for an excuse to save his daugh- ters from the pirates who intend to marry them. His favourite daughter Mable lElizabeth Karni intends to marry Frederick lRobert Roil. He is one of the pirates but is out of his indentures on his 2lst birthday. The Pirate King lGeorge D'Ambrosel lets them go, but in the second act when they dis- cover that General Stanley is not an orphan THE ORACLE they become very brave and try to take him. The police, who were to stop these pirates from robbing again, are, however, afraid of them. The girls, however, do not fear either of them and soon have things under control. All ends well as each pirate and each policeman finds himself a lovely wife. Other parts were taken by: Bernard Cal- der, Peter Hughes, Sandra Passmore, Jacqueline Shorrock, Carolyn Flood, Mary Tull, and Ruth Armour. Sound Crew The purpose of the Sound Crew is to operate the equipment on the many occa- sions demanded by the school, such as for dances, assemblies, and opening exercises. This year's crew consists of the following: Bill White icaptainl, Warren Robertson, Olen Culbert. Dances . . . Sadie Hawkins Dance With the turning of this years Sadie into a masquerade, Dogpatch had nothing on W.C.l. Against a background of haybales and corn shocks, weird-looking characters danced the night away to the strains of records pro- vided by Teen Town. The highlight of the evening was the iudging of costumes. For win- ners, the crowd picked Valerie McMullen, Tony Ogden, and Yvonne Blair. As in previous years cider and doughnuts were a big hit. Thanks this year to the Girls' Athletic Society, the dance was a success. Rugby Dance This year's dance was the best in years. Dancing from eight-thirty to twelve was from records supplied by Teen Town. Throughout the night many spot dances were held and prizes, donated by local merchants, were given out. At one pause in the program a ticket was drawn on an autographed rugby ball. The winner was Pat Knack. For refreshments, pop, cookies, and dough- nuts were on hand. On the whole this year's dance was a terrific success and a final tri- bute to this year's team. Trumpet Trot The Girl's Trumpet Band was the spon- sor of the first dance of the fall term.

I L Sixty-Eight THE ORACLE graphed trumpets and drums. Mr. MacGregor was the master of ceremonies for the evening and proved himself very capable. This dance was well attended and enioyed by all. The At Home The At Home is the one dance of the year at which the Staff is at home to the students and ex-students. This year the dance was held on Friday, February 19th. The music was supplied by Bobby Yohn and his orchestra. ln keeping with the home-like feeling there were several sofas and lounge chairs about the gym. The traditional Red and White hung from all parts of the room and large school crests were placed at various intervals throughout. The highlight of the evening was the crowning of the queen of hearts. For several weeks previous to the dance the senior forms in various ways and means, campaigned for their representative for queen. This year, after the ballots were counted, the Queen for i954 was Barbara Start, and her lady-in-waiting Kay Russell. A procession led by Queen Barbara and Mr. Ferguson wound its way up to the third floor where a lunch was served. The receiving line consisted of two mem- bers of the student council, Blair Douglas and Cathy George. Also on the receiving line were Mr. and Mrs. Ferguson, Mr. and Mrs. Bishop, and Mr. and Mrs. Blair. The Staff and Student Council under the following committee heads worked together to make this year's At Home a great success.

THE ORACLE Memorial Service On the afternoon of November lO, the Student body assembled in the auditorium to pay tribute to those heroes who paid the su- preme sacrifice. The Collegiate Orchestra, directed by Miss Kellerman, played the Overture which was fol- lowed by the opening procession. The assembled body sang the hymn O God Our Help in Ages Past after which the Scripture and Prayer were given by the Rev. Sterling James Kitchen. In keeping with the mood Mrs. Ross Hosack, accomapnied by Mrs. Harold Hall, gave a beautiful rendition of Peace l Leave With Thee . The Rev. J. Verner McNeely introduced the speaker, the Rev. George W. Goth, Metropoli- tan Church, London, who gave a moving ad- dress which will long be remembered by the students. After the address, Miss Kellerman played a selection on the memorial organ, followed by the National Anthem. The reading of the names of those who fell in the first world war was by Mr. D. M. Bishop, Chairman of the Board of Education, and the reading of the names of those who fell in the second war was by Mr. John Burridge, Member of the Board of Education. Following the readings, there was a Gen- eral Silence and bugler Murray Shantz played the Last Post. With slow steps, the procession was led into the main hall by the two flag bearers, J. Carter and H. Berlette. B. Start and K. Swance decorated the memorial plaque. The service was closed with the Benedic- tion by Rev. George W. Goth.

The dip- lomas were presented by Mr. E. G. Pow, mem- ber of the Board of Education. Following the commencement exercises the graduates adiourned to the Home Economics THE ORACLE room where a delicious buffet-style lunch was being served. Howard MacDonald was the valedictorian of the graduating class and he proved to be an excellent choice. Howard's address was a very appropriate ending to the ceremonies. The night was not without music. Murray Shantz played several trumpet selections. A quartette composed of Mr. Killenger, Mr. Dadd, Mr. Livingstone and Mr. Munro, all of this school, sang three numbers-much to the delight of the audience. Later in the pro- gramme Dr. and Mrs. Bell and daughter Nuala favoured the audience with several instrumental numbers and our own assembly choir sang four numbers. The orchestra, under the direction of Miss E. Kellerman, was also in attendance. A dance was held in the gym following the commencement exercises, thus bringing to a close a memorable evening. ValerHctory Arl ress . . . W.C.l. Commencement November 27, i953 Mr. Chairman, Fellow Graduates, Teachers, Students, Friends of the School It is an unhappy thought that sooner or later all good things must come to an end. To-night, we the graduates of nineteen fifty- three come reluctantly face to face with the end of our high school career. At such a time as this we are filled with traditional thoughts and emotions and are greatly concerned as to how we can collect them all into one final farewell. As valedictorian this task falls on my shoulders. I accept this duty with a sense of honour and pride and humble determination to express, as best I can, the true spirit and feeling of my class. Graduation is plainly defined as the con- ferring of a degree or a diploma on a student. This sounds very simple and precise, but when the time comes to leave a school in which you have spent many of the best hours of your life you cannot iust pick up a diploma and go. Leaving the Woodstock Collegiate we take with us more than nine or ten departmental credits. There is that part of our high school days, apart from actual academic functions which is also highly cherished. Just as an adult may often reflect with great satisfaction on his younger days, his home, his old friends, and his neghbourhood, so we may now look back on our wonderful Seventy-Three GOVERNMENT HOUSE OTTAWA 2.

Nothing is more precious than a wealth of fine memories. Already we recollect our years here with a new signifi- cance. Both work and play come to mind with a fondness which was never there before. lt is the realization that they are times past, never to return which endears them to our hearts. l mentioned both work and play. When we think of play all the seemingly good things come to mind. The old school spirit wakes up: dances, rugby games, field-day parades, the band, the yells, the good old Red and White- they all come to life again. We gave freely of our time and energies to every occasion which presented itself. It was not time wasted nor regretted. It was time spent in learning how much fun life can be, learning sportsmanship and the value of good friends and hobbies, and above all, learning how to handle the many problems and temptations which face the young men and women of to-day. However we did not come to this col- legiate only for a good time nor did we gradu- ate because we had a good time. Many hours of work were necessary. Work is often a very unpopular word in the opinion of a young student, but without it the entire purpose of coming to school is lost. As beginners we had a vague notion of the value of our studies, but as time went on, and prodding and urg- ing by our instructors progressed, the value of an education became apparent. Students mature as such when they learn to put first things first and others in their proper order, not because they have to, but because they have both a reason and a desire for doing so. The desire comes from an ambition to reach a goal in life following a sound prepara- tion in school. For this reason books and teachers cease to be nasty things to keep you in at nights and become the instruments you need to build a foundation for a firm and stable future. We are starting out on many different pathways of life, each of our own choosing. Depending entirely upon our own in- dustry and initiative, the lessons we were made to learn the hard way will never be regretted. After the completion of any undertaking the usual procedure is to go back and take stock or add up the score. Perfection is very seldom achieved and room for improvement is always found. To be picked to play in last year's Red Feather Tournament was a great THE ORACLE event in the life of our school. Excitement and enthusiasm ran high and everyone had a truly great time. As you all know there was one unsatisfactory result. Think of the improve- ment which could have been made if, by iust a little more hard practice, our team had been able to win that game. Again, how many times have we gone over examination results and found little cause to be satisfied after it is too late to do anything about it. A little more determination and concentrated study would have brought the grades we desired. You who are taking the places we have vacated may appreciate this humble advice. Never under- estimate the power of long hours of work and practice, remembering that no other school will be better if you can make yours the best. Do this and you will graduate with a true sense of accomplishment and great satisfaction. The Woodstock Collegiate has always turned out good students. It is to be hoped that the class of fifty-three will maintain the same high standards. I feel sure we can and we will. Ours is the first class that has had the privilege of studying under the principal- ship of Mr. E. P. Hodgins and graduating under that of Mr. Ed Ferguson. In the classroom our teachers spared nothing to develop sound char- acter and pass on the best knowledge possible. As we leave we have paid very little for what has been given to us. To see good use made of what they have taught us may, to some ex- tent, be remuneration for their efforts. Right now however there is nothing more than our sincere gratitude for the many, many things we owe to them. Our parents also deserve more than one can put into a few words. Their teaching iobs have been the longest and hard- est. Whatever we may do or become will be due largely to their sound guidance and good influence. The world to-day is a challenge to all young people. Amidst the confusion and un- rest one must be well prepared to make a suc- cess of life. Contrary to the current trend, any old job with a big pay and lots of time to run around and have fun is not success. Instead success embodies enioyment of one's work, concern for and understanding of others, abil- ity to make some beneficial contribution, be it large or small, and above all happiness. Peace of mind comes hard in this atomic age and era of two world wars and the still smouldering Korean war.
