STUDENT<br />

GOVERN~ IENT<br />

The su bj ect of student governmen t<br />

is rather controvereial. but if this edi ­<br />

torial causes vou to consider t he topic<br />

serlouslv it ha s achieved it s purpose.<br />

How 'much cont ro l ove r student actlvities<br />

should t he students exe rcise:'<br />

Some of us feel we should be given<br />

more power to legislate school regulat<br />

ions through a system of student<br />

government with more authority t o<br />

execute its decisions . Others feel that<br />

increased strength of such a body<br />

would prove detrimental t o the spirit<br />

of student-teacher co-operation and lead<br />

to conflict between t he ad ministrative<br />

staff and th e students,<br />

Student ad ministration shoul d give<br />

the student experience in good gove r n­<br />

ment. It should instill in him a spirit<br />

of responsibilit y to the studen t body-c.<br />

school sp irit , There are innumerable<br />

types of gove rnment-some may be bettel'<br />

; some less effecti ve than our present<br />

svste m. Here at J a r vis we have separate<br />

Girls' an d Boys' Clubs, Girls' an d<br />

Bovs' Athlet ic Associations, and P refe<br />

cts. Elich is a unit wit h its own<br />

executive an d it s own task but all are<br />

int ereste d in one t hing- the st ude nts,<br />

Each group is solely concer ned wih one<br />

activit v an d is therefore better prepared<br />

"to manage its own affairs, To<br />

combine these organizations into one<br />

St udent Council would decrease student<br />

participation , defeat ing the ai ms of<br />

student governmen t. Regula r joint<br />

meetings of these groups, however .<br />

might be val uable. By obj ecti vely di s­<br />

cussing the wishes of the studen t body<br />

with the ad ministrative staff, agreements<br />

cou ld he made and any friction<br />

avoided.<br />

Let us not lose sight of the fundamental<br />

purposes of student government<br />

: to train students in good cit izen ­<br />

ship and to improve st udent-teacher<br />

relationship. To t hese ends we must<br />

A SCHOOL MAGAZINE<br />

Your most precious souvenirs of high<br />

school days at Jarvis will be your<br />

copie s of the ) [allnet . If. on accidentally<br />

discoverl nx an old forgotten issu e at t he<br />

bottom of your desk drawer, you leaf<br />

through it, you will become pleasantly<br />

101'lt in t he mult itude of memo ries it<br />

r ecalls.<br />

Oh look ! Here ill a pic tu re of your<br />

class in the fi rst for m. You wonder<br />

who th at funny-looking fellow in the<br />

third row ill. Whr . it's you ! :My. how<br />

im mat ure and sheepish you looked t hen<br />

compared to you r dignified appearance<br />

now. And here. a few pages later is a<br />

group pictu re of the staff. Looking at<br />

the forgotten faces of your favor-ite<br />

teachers. you suddenly fi nd yourself<br />

back in that Algebra class. st ruggling<br />

with the de fini tion of Invers e variation<br />

of t wo magnitude.. of th e same kind, or<br />

in French class, tryinJ( to bluff your<br />

way through a translation in "Couts<br />

:\Ioyen" . Those were t ry ing times.<br />

Leafirur t hrough t he prose section.<br />

you come upon your essay which won<br />

first prize in the junior divi sion, and<br />

you rem ember how proudly you walk ed<br />

up to the platform to recei ve your<br />

award at the :\Iagnet au dito ri um.<br />

F urt her on you :-;toe a few of your<br />

sketches, which. alt hough no p r-izewinners.<br />

were never theless published.<br />

(Yo u wonder wh yI )<br />

The humour section fascinates you :<br />

There vou see familiar school jokes and<br />

witty or t ypical expressions used by<br />

vour teachers. The original cartoo ns.<br />

some expertly drawn, others not so expertly<br />

drawn, evoke good-nat ured<br />

chuckles fr om your lips.<br />

Xow you have arrived at the sports'<br />

section. Surely your pictu re i!' there !<br />

You were one of J an -is's sta r athletes<br />

(or were you'.') Search as you may.<br />

however. you can't find it. Oh well, you<br />

probably weren't at school th e day the<br />

Camera Club took the pictures. Any<br />

way, looking at your schoolmate!' in<br />

uniform. you remember the vigorous<br />

exercises at friendly ga mes of basket ­<br />

ball an d badminton, an d th e fun of<br />

watching foot ball, even if J arvie didn't<br />

win .<br />

As the pages fly by, so your ca refre-e<br />

school vea rs. filled with ha rd work<br />

at exam time but fun after schoolhours.<br />

could return to the friendly companionship.<br />

the after-school sports. the school<br />

dances. the Chess Club, the World Affa<br />

THE VALUE OF EDUCATION<br />

Ed ucation. it has be-en stated in vartous<br />

way :" is a commodity which is<br />

priceless to th e owner and pract ically<br />

unattainable to those who do not possess<br />

it, if they lire not willing to earn it .<br />

You can not go to t he corn er market and<br />

snv. "I'll have an educat ion, please."<br />

Acquiring an education takes yea rs of<br />

hard work an d st udy. bu t t he rewards<br />

are well worth the time an d effort.<br />

To the man of middle age who ha s<br />

failed to climb 3,51 high in his field I'f<br />

employment as he should have liked to,<br />

an education means a great dea l. He<br />

wishes that he had gone to school for<br />

one more year. or to thi s school, 0r<br />

that school. He looks back with reaming<br />

at his you th wh ich he spent in some<br />

ot her past-time than studvinc. To him<br />

it mean s "0 much in his job. and it is<br />

imposs ible now to better his knowledge<br />

because of hi" age a nd obligation".<br />

.An education can meun more than<br />

13


opport unity or advan cement in t he area<br />

of employment and salary. It can<br />

mean the difference bet ween ignorance<br />

of evervdav happenings and th e understand<br />

ing of them . A ma n who reads t he<br />

Sunday pa per , fOI' instance, and can<br />

ap preciate the news because he knows<br />

wha t is underlyin g it, b. much more<br />

enligh te ned t han the man who glances<br />

at the headli nes. decides he does not<br />

understand them, and does not care.<br />

What a help it is if he studied P hysics<br />

and can now unders tand where the<br />

t rouble is in hi:" doorbell, when it keeps<br />

sticking and ringing incessantly.<br />

F rom an ed ucation is acqui red th e<br />

ab ility to appreciate t he finest of literature,<br />

to discove r the deep bea uty or<br />

a Shake.spearean sonnet , or to comprehend<br />

t he hidden mea ning in the line<br />

of a pla y. The ed ucated man is able<br />

to delve into poetry and prose wit h<br />

enjoyment , a:" well as his fa vourite<br />

magazine, and to comprehend t he majesty<br />

and full meaning of t he words.<br />

Last. but not least, are t he wonderful<br />

fr-iends you gain at school. They<br />

will be your f riends t hrough life and<br />

it becomes harder [I S you get older to<br />

cement new friendships" Remember :<br />

" an old friend is th e best friend ."<br />

They say a child makes friends more<br />

easily th an anyone, so do not wa ste<br />

vour formative vears. School chu rns<br />

are usually frienrls to the end and can<br />

be relied upon fo r staunch support an d<br />

help if you ever need it.<br />

JARVIS AS I KNEW IT<br />

I wa s pleased to learn that you are<br />

t his yea r celebrating the 150th anniversary<br />

of Jarvis Street Collegiate. )'Iy<br />

years of attendance were 1883-8·1. Even<br />

at that date the school und er P ri ncipal<br />

)Iac)furch,' had attained an enviable<br />

reputationIn our school system. to say<br />

not hing of its present high standing.<br />

The teachers in t hose dea r far off days<br />

a re mere names to your pupils. but to<br />

any surviving stu dents of t he 6th form<br />

t hev will be recalled not only as model<br />

teachers but almost as warm personal<br />

friends. Some of these were Sa m<br />

Hughes. fam ous in South Af rica : :\Iajor<br />

Fred :\Ianley ; "Banty' Crawford :<br />

Ar -t ist Haigent : t he French teacher. and<br />

of cou rse. the Principal. When we went<br />

on to the Uni versltv we must han' been<br />

fa irly well prepared to meet Sir Daniel<br />

Wilson, ) Iaurice Hutton, William Dale,<br />

John Squair, Professors Keys, Chapman,<br />

Young, an d t he other professors<br />

an d lecturers of th at dav. I mention all<br />

these as illustrating th e importance of<br />

pe rsona lity in the teaching pr~fe s " io n<br />

an d its effect on youn g lives. \\ it h the<br />

zreat increa se in numbers some of the<br />

fo r me r inti mac," between teacher and<br />

pupil is apt to be lost, but t he influence<br />

of characte r is still more important<br />

The gi rls wore their best winter coat...<br />

"crack the whip" after the band<br />

together t hrough the succeeding school<br />

yea rs, t hough marred by the absence of<br />

J a rvis st ill brings many wonderful<br />

memori es to me - the school building<br />

itself. the many f riends I made there,<br />

the teachers - yes and even t he studying<br />

!<br />

One particular day has not been<br />

duplicated since-it was a very sto rmy,<br />

rainy cold day. We were at Va rsity<br />

Aren a, and on that wonderful day J arvis<br />

won bot h t he J unior an d the Senior<br />

Rugby Championships of t he city! Of<br />

COUNle our excitement knew no bounds<br />

in spite of the fact that we had to<br />

buy bags of hot peanuts to hold to<br />

keep our hands wa rm, and have the<br />

boys in the row in fro nt of us sit on<br />

our feet to keep them warm! (I ncidenta<br />

lly t hey belonged to one of the r-ival<br />

schools - Cent ral Tech - an d at t he<br />

en d of t he ga me were ra ther sorry<br />

they had kept us "Jervisltes warm." )<br />

The ex citement in t he ha lls of Jarvis<br />

next day would have put todav's Grey<br />

Cup fe ver to sha me!<br />

Anot her day I remember particularly<br />

was the da y after the final Rugby<br />

game the next yea r. J an -is lost both<br />

championships that year and we had<br />

... Rugby funeral which was as sad as<br />

th e ye~ r before had been happy ­<br />

block. and tr.e burial of the Rugby<br />

still there. or if' and when they were<br />

packed in a box, and wonde red . . .<br />

many happy times spe nt there. To-day,<br />

as a pa ren t. I reali ze how fortunate we<br />

were to have been g uided by eo fine a<br />

staff of teachers, man y of whom took<br />

a personal and friendly interest in our<br />

development.<br />

To pick out one incident of our life<br />

at J a rvis is a difficult ass ignment. We<br />

remember our principal, ~I r . Jefferies,<br />

whose dignity and high st anda rds of<br />

schola rship a nd behaviour set the pace<br />

for the en tire school. We were often<br />

re ferred to as J .C.I. (Jefferies' Collection<br />

of Idiots). but to him. I am certa<br />

in, we were young people. ready to<br />

be molded into eager, Inquisitive, and<br />

dignified young men an d women. We<br />

recall ~I r . Jenkins, whose deep voice<br />

and firm step along t he corridors put<br />

te rro r into our hearts, but whose bark<br />

was much wor se t han his bite - as<br />

we al ways knew.<br />

We remember ~ I r . :McKellar, whose<br />

brusque manner covered up a delightful<br />

sense of humou r, an d who had a<br />

way of teaching matbs, so that event u­<br />

allv even I understood it. "M iss Wolf­<br />

~n - Theorem 12. Book 2?"<br />

And always we shall remember, with<br />

IO"e and affection, ~ Ii s s S1. J ohn. with<br />

her deep understanding of human nature,<br />

whose French classes were<br />

awaited with great eagerness .<br />

There were man y more outstanding<br />

teachers who helped us on our way and<br />

made our J an-is days some of the<br />

happiest of our lives. One event we<br />

shall always remember was the Physical<br />

Trai ning demonstration put on in t he<br />

Sp ring of 1929, by :\Iiss Bryans. About<br />

five hundred girls presented a display<br />

of calisthenics, preci sion dr ills, and<br />

dancing, which was widely acclaimed<br />

the n, an d undoubtedly even to-day<br />

would be considered an outstanding<br />

spectacle. The th rill of t hat night and<br />

the song which closed t he evening will<br />

linger al ways in our hearts.<br />

J arvis. now we proudly hail thee<br />

In the sp ringtime of ou r youth,<br />

With a promise ne'er to fail thee<br />

In the ways of right and truth.<br />

We greet thee, 0 J arvie,<br />

For thee, we strive to win,<br />

And the lustre won throughout<br />

Donald Hazell .


THE COLLEGIATE INSTITUTE -- 1886-1891<br />

During the first half of this period<br />

'The Collegiate Insti t ute' was s uf ficient<br />

as its name, for i t was the only one in<br />

the city. During the remainder of t he<br />

period a second one was built<br />

and opened in Parkdale. To distinguish<br />

between the t wo, t he words Jan-is<br />

Street in the one case and P arkdale in<br />

the other. were added to the names.<br />

T he building stood on the present site<br />

of t he J arvis J unior Vocat ional School<br />

and coneisted of a basement and three<br />

stories. Class rooms occupied most of<br />

t he s pace on the first and second floors,<br />

although opening off the class room<br />

pres ided over by the P rincipal. was a<br />

small room which was his office and<br />

t he school library. The third story contained<br />

the Assembly Hall. A class room<br />

fitted for teaching science and the science<br />

laboratory were in t he basement.<br />

Unless my memory is playing me<br />

false, a block of marble with t he da te<br />

1807 cut into it was set in the front<br />

wa ll alt hough t hat was not t he year<br />

t he building was erected. The block<br />

had come fro m an ea rlier building<br />

known as "Th e Grammar School" wh ich<br />

in its day had serv ed t he purposes of t he<br />

Collegiate Inst itute. The stone now is<br />

prominent in t he third building of t he<br />

, ... .... n<br />

ser ies. F req uently t he P rincipal reminded<br />

us that our school stood in an<br />

old and proud succession. One can only<br />

imagi ne t he warmth of his emotion if<br />

he cou ld speak now whe n almost t wice<br />

as many yea rs have gone by.<br />

T he ground immediately around the<br />

building was cove red wit h planking;<br />

the rest of the play-ground, at least<br />

on t he boys' side, was bare. There<br />

games were played - marbles rarely,<br />

several kinds 0 f running games<br />

frequently, sand-lot baseball less often.<br />

and football of the "soccer" type occasionally.<br />

I cannot say what went on<br />

in the gi rls' part of the grounds because<br />

betwe-en the two parts was a<br />

board fence too high to see over. And<br />

right there lies a stri king difference<br />

between the Collegiate Inst itute of that<br />

day and of this. The boys were ex pected<br />

to act a" though they were unconscious<br />

of the existence of t he gi rls and the<br />

girls equally ~ of the boys. " And never<br />

the twa in shall meet." At least t hey<br />

did not in the region of t he school.<br />

T his unnat ural scheme occasional ly<br />

wor ked out with unex pected results.<br />

The wa ll betwe-en the rooms of t he<br />

girlil' side of t he building and those<br />

on t he boys' side was rather t hicker<br />

t han most inside walls, probably beca<br />

use it had to contr ibute suppor t to<br />

t he center of t he floor of the Assembly<br />

Hall above it. In this wa ll t here was a<br />

doorway bet ween the t wo adjace nt<br />

clas s rooms wit h a door on the girls'<br />

side and another on the boys' side. One<br />

da y while our class was in the Prlncipal's<br />

ca re he wi shed to send a note to<br />

the teacher of t he girls' class then in<br />

the room into which this doorway<br />

opened. ) Iy chum who was selected t o<br />

carry t he note was told to explain his<br />

errand to the boys' teacher through<br />

whose room he had to pa ss and to be<br />

sure to close behind him t he door on the<br />

boys' side befo re openi ng very far the<br />

door on the girls' side. All t his he did<br />

faithfully and delivered the note - but<br />

t he gi rls' teacher was so anxious to<br />

avoid havin g both doors open at the<br />

same t ime that she gave my chum no<br />

time to un fasten the door on t he boys'<br />

side but pressed him bac k wit h her<br />

door and leaned firmly against it. As<br />

th e lady was far fro m sma ll, pro bably<br />

24


weighing nearly two hundred pounds ,<br />

my chum passed some very uncomfortable<br />

moments before he could work<br />

a hand into position to turn the knob<br />

of the other door. He was a generousminded<br />

fellow but always complained<br />

that the teacher did n't use common<br />

sense in ap plying rules.<br />

Each morning, I think it was after<br />

the fi rst period, all the pupils gathered<br />

in the Assembly Hall, standing in long<br />

lines that ran from side to side of<br />

the Hall while prayers were read by th e<br />

Pri ncipal who stood facing them on a<br />

dai s. Here again the boy and girl Question<br />

intruded and was imperfectly<br />

solved b r having a double row of<br />

benches placed between the ~ il' l s' side<br />

and the boy!".' side of the Hall. All the<br />

lines were under the command "Eves<br />

Front", with no side glances allo\\=ed.<br />

However. being aware of human weakness.<br />

the Pri ncipal repeated the prayers,<br />

which he well knew by heart, with<br />

his eyes open . In this. we said. he was<br />

but obeying the Scriptural injuncti on<br />

to " Watch and Pray:' One morning<br />

one of my classmate!". bro ught with him<br />

a ball of lead about an inch in diameter.<br />

J ust as we were being called to order<br />

he placed it on the floor between his<br />

feet . A little later. in a favou rable moment<br />

duri ng the pause between two<br />

prayers, he struck it sha rply with his<br />

foot. The result was startling. The floor<br />

was not Quite smooth and the ball was<br />

heavy and not quite round. Its progres s<br />

was marked by very audible bumps<br />

and th umps as it rolled on between two<br />

lines of boys, under the two rows of<br />

benches and down between two of th e<br />

lines of girls, until one of th e dam sels<br />

with daring presence of mind and<br />

doubtless with some thrill , put her foot<br />

on it and stopped its horrid cla tt er .<br />

Th ere was absolute silence as the question<br />

leaped into the minds of all of us.<br />

"Xow what will ha ppen ?" Then the<br />

next prayer began.<br />

The Principal, although not sure who<br />

was the culprit, probabl y had his suspicions<br />

and later in the day my friend<br />

was summoned befo re him. The interview<br />

led to the question " Do you know<br />

who did it ?", to which my friend replied<br />

that he knew but did not like to<br />

tell. The Principal respected his<br />

scruples and then showed in a st ri king<br />

manner his great qualif ications for<br />

being Principal : he let the whole matter<br />

drop. His name was Archibald )Ic­<br />

)Iurchie.<br />

THE HISTORY OF JARVIS COLLEGIATE<br />

In the year <strong>1957</strong>, Janis Collegiate<br />

Institute is celeb rating its sesquicenlennial<br />

an niversary. We ha ve the oldes t<br />

school in Sout hern Ontario-s-a disttnction<br />

of whi ch we ca n be proud.<br />

About 1800. Ontario was settled by<br />

a great many United Em pire Loya list....<br />

As a resul t of their arr-ival, York became<br />

a thr-ivin g cent re. Among these<br />

people or iginated the idea of a publi c<br />

school for York. Until this time only<br />

the very wealthy could afford to have<br />

pri vate t utors for th eir children. In<br />

]807, due to the pressure of t he United<br />

Empire Loyali sts, an act of the legislature<br />

for Upper Canada was passed<br />

stat ing that t here should be one grammar<br />

school per dis t rict. T his wa s the<br />

beginning of the Educational System of<br />

Ontario. The Home District school for<br />

Yor k, lUI it was called. was open to bot h<br />

boys an d girls but eventually t he number<br />

of girls diminished. Fees were<br />

cha rged except when the pa rents could<br />

net afford to pay t hem .<br />

In 1813 the school was t ransfer red<br />

to a barn at King and Yonge Street s.<br />

T here Dr. J . Strachan by his di plomacy<br />

and courage as hea dmaster protected<br />

t he smal l school f rom the ravages<br />

of the 1812-18H war.<br />

Then in 1816 the schoo l wa s moved<br />

to a six acre lot north of St. J am es'<br />

Cathedral. bounded by Chu rch, Jarvis,<br />

Adelaide. and Richmond St reets marked<br />

out as the School Square. On this<br />

site the Old Blue School was erected.<br />

T here were approximately forty to f ift y<br />

st udents ra nging from f ive to seventeen<br />

years. Th e wood used fo r the building<br />

cam e from th e forest just north of<br />

Queen Street whil e through t he back of<br />

th e six ac re IQt ran a st ream where t he<br />

students frolicked summer an d winter.<br />

Another move, however. was in store.<br />

t his time to J arvis and Lombard<br />

Streets. The instit ution was now ca lled<br />

th e Royal Grammar School and dur-i ng'<br />

t his yea r, 1829, was amalga mated for<br />

over a year wit h what is now Up per<br />

Canada College, The subject s th en<br />

taught were as follow» : Latin. Greek.<br />

Hebrew. French. E ngli sh . g l ob e -.<br />

mathematics, writing. and bookkeeping.<br />

Before any other seconda ry school was<br />

bu ilt , enrolment was between six and<br />

seven hundred while the an-rage daily<br />

attendance was four hundred and fifty<br />

pupils.<br />

In 1864 t he school was moved to<br />

Dalhousie Street and b)' 1865 it was decided<br />

that girls could attend school<br />

but this time for F rench classes onf..,<br />

Since t he enrolment was Increasing<br />

yearly. newer and la rge r accommodatio<br />

ns were urgently needed so a new<br />

site on Jarvis Street was selected.<br />

:\oleanwhile classes were held temporarily<br />

in P. building wh ich occupied u<br />

portion of the site on which the east<br />

wi ng of the Parliam en t Buildings now<br />

sta nds.<br />

It was declared in 1871. when the<br />

new school was comp leted . t hat henceforth<br />

all Grammar Schools shou ld be<br />

known as High Schools. For t we ntyeight<br />

years :'ol r. Arc hibald :\Iadlurchy,<br />

one cf t he fin est men ever to ha ve<br />

lived in Southern Ontario. efficient ly<br />

direc ted the in stituti on. By this t ime<br />

both boys and girls were attending<br />

classes alt hough only pupils who had<br />

succeeded in the en t rance exa minat ions<br />

were ad mitted. T hanks to our fa r­<br />

sighted community leaders, educa t ion<br />

had ad vanced ,;0 that it was no longer<br />

"a privilege of th e rich but a possessi on<br />

of the poor."<br />

Toronto. however, was st ill growing<br />

rapidly. Th e school facili ties beca me<br />

old-fashioned and were s e v er e 1v<br />

cramped for space. For this reason the<br />

school moved in 1922 to it s present<br />

location at the cor ner of J a rvia and<br />

Welleslev St reets, the for-mer site of<br />

Sheriff j arv is' home. T his school, whe n<br />

built, was cons idered an incredible<br />

phenomenon. It contained a swimming'<br />

pool, an auditorium en hanced by murals<br />

and a most stately rot unda where<br />

plaq ues were erecte d to our valiant<br />

st ude nts who lost their lives in th e first,<br />

and later the second. World Wars.<br />

Due to the ever increasing populat<br />

ion. a n additio n was added to t he<br />

school in 1956. This consiste d of five<br />

new classrooms and a new gy mnasium .<br />

the finest in Ontario. f urn ishing all the<br />

most modern convenie nces.<br />

T his history of t he school has served<br />

to illustrate no more than the highligh ts<br />

of t he past. We students of J arvis han<br />

a heritage of which we can truly be<br />

proud.<br />

before coming to J a r vis.<br />

W hile at J arvis. :\li ss Nesbitt taught<br />

E nglish and Latin to her fortunate<br />

pupils. A per fectionist, she insisted on<br />

sou nd scholarship and an exactness in<br />

all things: acco rdingly she was newI'<br />

fo und to han:' much lenience with careless<br />

or indole nt pup ils. Her greatest concern<br />

was the inst illi ng of a love for<br />

literature in the you ng people whom<br />

she instructed. Anot her quality which<br />

only ad ded to her worth as a teacher<br />

was her strictness with regard to conduct<br />

in t he school. Her classes though.<br />

we re probably more enjoyable than<br />

most, for she possessed a special knack<br />

:\Iiss Xesbltt retu r ned to her birthplace<br />

for the s ummers. She owned a<br />

After the invoca ti on by Rev. J ohn<br />

F rank, our principal, :\11'. Jewell, gave<br />

a re port of t he school act ivities of t he<br />

::\11'. Stubbs, would be responsi ble for all<br />

port, a minute's silence was observed<br />

in memory of )Ir. )Iuir and Mr. Overholt,<br />

members of our t eaching staff who<br />

After t he ninety-seven recipient s of<br />

:\Iedicine or E ngineering where there is<br />

a sca rc ity of scholarships.<br />

The guest speaker :Mr. C. W. Booth,<br />

addressed the g rad uating class with this<br />

advice: "Educat ion should bring to<br />

each of us a higher degree of happiness<br />

by preparing us for complete Hying<br />

through the develo pment of all t he potential<br />

powers we haw. This includes<br />

t hinking for ourselves, ex press ing our<br />

t houghts clearly, being interesting and<br />

in te rested, and Hying an honest and<br />

decent life.<br />

"The pass word to success is work<br />

. . . What we need in life is t he<br />

determination an d the will t o s ucceed.<br />

The use we make of our nat ive intellige<br />

nce and the acquired knowledge will<br />

determine our success.<br />

"wonder, responsibility, serv ice -


Mr, Cha r les S oot h, a for me r J a rv is teacher,<br />

these three I recommend to each member<br />

of t his graduati ng class. Add these<br />

to the full use of your five senses,<br />

practise the m fai t hf ully every day, and<br />

I promise you a real success in life."<br />

Then followed the presentation of the<br />

During t he course of t he evening we<br />

the J ,C.'s who sang "G ra dua tion<br />

Day" and " Angels in t he Sky", After<br />

the singing of The Queen, th e for mal<br />

part of t he evening was oyer, and parents<br />

and st udents assembled down stairs<br />

in the cafeteria, for tea and cookies or<br />

in th e large gym for dan cing, At 12.30<br />

A.::\I. the graduates reluc tantly left t he<br />

school, carrying with t hem th e memory<br />

of the momentous occasion,<br />

JUNIOR COMMENC EMENT<br />

The nigh t of )'larc h 8 was cold and<br />

wet, but th is did not prevent the excited<br />

t hird formers of Jarvis from appearing<br />

promptly at eight o'clock for<br />

J arvis's J unior Commencement. On th is<br />

occas ion, the Intermediate Certificate<br />

win ners were to be honoured, and they<br />

all felt a little apprehensive despite<br />

their best clothes. But how could they<br />

help but feel dig nified taking the ir seats<br />

under t he proud gaze of parents with<br />

solemn organ music swelling abou t<br />

t hem and two championship t rophies<br />

glitteri ng on the platform .<br />

The certificates were presented to<br />

each winner by :Mr, Edwa rds, a trustee,<br />

who congratulated th e group, emphas izing<br />

the importa nce of th is milestone as<br />

a step toward graduation.<br />

The Centen nial Scholarsh ips were<br />

friend of J arvis and for mer trustee, to<br />

Susa n Foster, Eric Bolling, Bob Stewart<br />

Prog ra ms in t he gym and pool followed,<br />

after which parents and teachers<br />

retired to t he safety and peace of<br />

)otr. Jewell, honoured guests, members<br />

of the st aff, st udents, and fr-iends<br />

of J arvis.<br />

It wa s with gratitude and humility<br />

that I accepted this flattering yet<br />

difficult duty of the valedictorian. I<br />

say rather difficult. since according to<br />

the long-st anding tradition I am supposed.<br />

in t his address, to expr ess the<br />

feelings and t houghts of some seventy<br />

people. my last rear's classmates a nd<br />

graduates of J an-is Cd . Alt hough I<br />

have no talent for prob ing int o ot her<br />

people's mind s. I am quite sure that<br />

I am right when I say that the prominent<br />

sent iment s among my fellowst<br />

udents tonight. are t hose of mingled<br />

jor . regret, and pride.<br />

There is a certain sadness when our<br />

minds turn back to view ours elves as<br />

we first appeared in the ha lls of J,e.I..<br />

shy, perplexed, yet eager to be asslmllated<br />

and to belong, During t he pas t<br />

fin yea rs we have lived a whole life<br />

span in miniature, so to speak, Born<br />

anew on the day when we passed<br />

through the portals of this storied<br />

st ruc tu re, we grew and developed phy sically,<br />

mentally, and emotionally. We<br />

acqu ired new inte rests, for med new<br />

clubs. took part in numerous activities.<br />

those that pleased our superiors and<br />

those that did not ; yet all of t hese went<br />

to make us what we are to-day.<br />

As life will han it , we had experiences<br />

both sad and gay, We pa id our<br />

last tribut es to some of our dea rest<br />

friends who passed away during t hose<br />

rears: Dr. Jenkins, ~Ir . ~ I ui r . an d ) 11'.<br />

Overholt. We wit nessed some of t he<br />

happiest moments in th e lives of ot her ....<br />

as was the case when )[1'. L. G. ~[ c­<br />

Kerra cher received th e Coronation<br />

~I ed a l.<br />

And t he sports ! Everyone took part<br />

in th e sports. The t rack, the field. football,<br />

basketball and many, many more<br />

took our spare time after studies. We<br />

played interscholas tic games. won man y<br />

and lost more, doing both wit h a smile.<br />

Th en, t here were the ope rettas, There<br />

was no doubt whatsoever that our<br />

efforts were rewarded generously there.<br />

Our social life ranged from informal<br />

tea dances afte r school hours to gala<br />

formals, during which time we got<br />

to know each other better and improved<br />

ourselves in the a rts of social<br />

behaviour.<br />

VALEDICTORY<br />

37<br />

One mus tn 't forget the st udies. Although<br />

at this point a frown may<br />

wrinkle the foreheads of many of us,<br />

let me say that the experiences acquired<br />

in the classroom will probably never be<br />

duplic ated. Little incidents occurred,<br />

like sliding, and literally sliding, int o<br />

t he classroom at the zero hou r, heaving<br />

a sigh of relief and t hen realizing that<br />

your watch was five minutes slow and<br />

t hat you would again spend a pleasan t<br />

pre-morning se....slon in the delightful<br />

company of ~I r . Page. We listened to<br />

such fam ous word s as. "Xow t his is<br />

my story: get down to the solid ground<br />

m' boy :" You can't forget being expelled<br />

from t he class into the corridor<br />

for t he first time in your life. and then<br />

surrepti tiously Jw ing to th e drinking<br />

founta in to ha ve an innocent sip every<br />

time someone passed by.<br />

And :'0 we studied and learned, never<br />

dreaming that t his delightful episode<br />

was nearing its d ose. One August<br />

morning we were suddenly awakened<br />

by the postman's ring on t he fr ont door.<br />

\Ye picked up the letter and there it<br />

was, the end and t he beginning.<br />

) Ir . Cook once said, "We come to<br />

school to learn to live wisely," Is it not<br />

true that th e devel opment of attitudes<br />

which enable us to face any circumstance<br />

wit h poise an d fai rminded nes s<br />

i" going to be the mai n facto!' in ou r<br />

lives fro m now on? Have we a tt ained<br />

t hose attitudes? J arvis Collegiate has<br />

given ti l> every opportu nity to do so,<br />

With :\11'. Jewell's endless effo rts; to<br />

am eliorate an yth ing that needed betterment<br />

an d the constant and untirin g<br />

guidanc e and instructions on t he pa rt<br />

of our teachers, we could not fail to<br />

learn. To them all I extend, in th e nam e<br />

of my co-st udents. our grateful thanks,<br />

During the past five years, willingly<br />

or unw illingly . we have influenced<br />

others and at the sa me time our f riends<br />

and acquaintances have left an indisputable<br />

impression on our own characters.<br />

In developing our individual int erests<br />

we nevert heless acted toget he r as<br />

threads, bou nd by th e 150 year old t ra ­<br />

dition. interwoven into the st rong fabric<br />

of school spi rit.<br />

We ha ve been a link in a vast chain.<br />

We have been a pa rt of a bod)' of which<br />

no outsider can ever be a part. We are<br />

proud of it.<br />

And lif t ~y pen to write I know not<br />

And makes. ala" my weary brain to<br />

And feeble strokes or doodles fill my<br />

It surely seems my sonnet here will<br />

For insp iration that I know I lack.<br />

High on the 'edge of a long fl at plain,<br />

Standing st rai ght for all to ::.ee<br />

Its height and powerful majesty.<br />

Th is t ree, like an ancient god, does<br />

About to gin some high comman d.<br />

The tree resists. it must not go,<br />

It bends<br />

It straightens.<br />

It bends "orne more.<br />

And all t he while the gale does roa r,<br />

Until th e tree with a last, long sigh<br />

Topples down on t he pla in - to die.<br />

But even t hough this t ree has died.<br />

They'll grow, and then in years to be,<br />

The Golden Eagle<br />

High on a rock above the sea<br />

The golde n eagle stands .<br />

A sent ry. searching all the world<br />

His restless eye commands .<br />

Tireless, he watc hes eve ry move<br />

From meadow, bush , and fe rn ;<br />

A nd when he sees a small grey mouse<br />

His eyes begin to burn.<br />

On silent wings he hurtles down<br />

Towa rd his chosen prey ;<br />

He snatches it with eager claws<br />

And carries it away.<br />

Once more the golden eagle sta nds<br />

Upon his lofty peak,<br />

Wit h folded wings, uplifted head,<br />

And cr uel. curving beak.<br />

With skis and poles on backs .<br />

And wi ld an ticipation.<br />

A t the summit. friends we greet<br />

And breath we do regain.<br />

Great waves beat strong against the<br />

Cold. winds now wrench away the<br />

The angry clouds above, their faces<br />

Spit down cold rain. Below. a sudden<br />

Sends salt sp ray o'er the ship, that dip"<br />

Temptation to the ocean. hungering.<br />

Who lies in wait. If but this ship could<br />

The ocean though. relentless as of old.<br />

Whips waves into a seething whitish<br />

foam.<br />

Starving, the sea now licks the bare,<br />

rough decks.<br />

The crippled vessel nods. as if to come<br />

Into its gaping jaws. then r ising, bows<br />

And plunges. Second s later. only flecks<br />

Of foam remain upon t he st ern sea's<br />

Hovered over the foaming reef;<br />

By The Open Fire<br />

As I lie in the sand with mv face<br />

t urned to receive the warmth of th e<br />

fire, a st ra nge drowsiness creeps over<br />

me. It is not mere physical exhaustion,<br />

though it is true that we han hiked<br />

a greet distance, a nd my muscles cry<br />

for rest - but rather, it is complete<br />

surrender. The fi re saps all st rength,<br />

will, and desire. 1 only wan t to lie here<br />

forever.<br />

A tongue of flame darts toward me<br />

along a twig of pine. It ill a d ra gon's<br />

tongue, golden a nd twisting, The t will<br />

writhes before me, then fall s in an<br />

~ ura of "wed-smelling sa p - incense<br />

Th e sun is gone now, and th e wood"<br />

I watc h with sens uous delight as 11<br />

of spa rks. They seem like dancers ..<br />

dancers on a stage of night, spending<br />

themselves in one ecst atic flight, then<br />

vanishing . , . evanescent fancies, flving<br />

from reality. But what is realit;"!<br />

I know nought of it, here in mv<br />

charmed circ le, a nd I have no need of it.<br />

There is no hunger here, no cold, no<br />

fea r ; only the lap ping of the water on<br />

the beach , and the dancing of th e flame.'!<br />

aga inst the night sky,<br />

I have a sudden desire to reach out<br />

for the fire to hold it, and to feel its<br />

strengt h running th rough my veins. J<br />

want to da nce as I have seen the spa rk s<br />

dance. for the glor ious momen t, am:<br />

A Sum mer Experience<br />

Th e you ng a re eve r unmindful of t heir<br />

own inadequacy when faced with obst<br />

r uct ions, natural and otherwise, to<br />

t he object of their desi re . So I learned,<br />

wit h II mild pa ng of regret. one fi ne<br />

day in lat e August this summ er.<br />

:\Iy mot her and I were enjoying ourse<br />

lves immensely. Having been cooped<br />

up in alter nately freezing and baking,<br />

but always dep ressing city of Toronto<br />

for t he greater pa rt of this summer,<br />

we were making t he most of our tour<br />

through verdant Algonquin Park, Xaturally,<br />

t his included a qu iet stroll along<br />

one of the man y Xat ure Trails which<br />

branch of f at int er vals from the main<br />

road . Luckily we ha ppened to pick one<br />

of t he most beautiful which wound up<br />

t he side of a hill t hr ough t ranquil,<br />

emerald-scented woods and ended on a<br />

high. rocky bluff overlooking spruceclad<br />

hills and sh ining northla nd lakes.<br />

It was late afternoon and the wind was<br />

cool but t he sun still shone warmly .<br />

Taking advantage of t he remaining<br />

warmth, Slot be r seated herself on the<br />

su n-warmed rock and I wandered farther<br />

alon g the rim of bare granite with<br />

t he woods on one side and on t he other<br />

a nearly sheer drop of several hundred<br />

feet. Happening to glance down. I spied<br />

a ledge approximat ely thirteen feet be­<br />

Iow an which grew blueberries in lux urious<br />

abundance. Xow a Canad ian would<br />

see nothing to get excited about in t his ,<br />

but in me it aroused memories of days<br />

with my grandmot her in t he ancient<br />

forests of Latvia : besides, I was getting<br />

a little hungry.<br />

Ca re fu lly I lowered myself in to a erevice<br />

in the rock un t il my whole weigh t<br />

was resting on an aged tree-stump<br />

wh ich j utted f rom t he side of t he<br />

crevice. Then, sizin g up my situation I<br />

realized that sho uld t he rotten s tump<br />

zive way, I should become the source of<br />

serious wor ry to my Mot her. If my foot<br />

should slip . ..<br />

Later, as I sat bes ide my Mother,<br />

s ha ri ng t hose hard-won blueberries wit h<br />

her, I med itated. I had never been seriously<br />

troubled with visions of Et ern it y<br />

staring me in the face. but I was<br />

thankful to be sitting sa fe and so und<br />

wit h t he sun in my fa ce. It was just as<br />

well t hat I had found a different and<br />

certainly an eas ier way back since the<br />

old tree stump had . .. Rousing myself<br />

from this unaccu stomed reverie I had<br />

to draw rein sharp ly on my unbridled<br />

imagina tion. Gingerly I felt a combined<br />

Se n io r Art Awao r d - Seco nd<br />

By The Open Fire<br />

The cruci fixion of Jesus Christ ha s<br />

been t he subject of many paintings and<br />

literarv articles. I would like, in th e<br />

following essay, to relate a story which<br />

provides part of the background for<br />

th is sublimest of all events.<br />

The hero of my sto ry , or should I say<br />

villa in, is the Apostle , Peter. Well we<br />

remember how, during the last supper ,<br />

t he Lord Jesus sai d to Peter, " I say unto<br />

thee, before the cock crow, tho u<br />

shalt deny me th rice."<br />

Listen to t he prou d wor ds of Peter,<br />

" Alth ough all be offended yet, will not<br />

I. Though I shoul d die with thee yet<br />

will I not deny thee." As if to say, "0<br />

Lord , not me Lord ; maybe J ames or<br />

J ohn, but not me,"<br />

The next time in scripture t hat Peter<br />

is mentioned is when J udas led the soldiers<br />

into th e Garden of Get hseman e.<br />

::\Jy, how bold was Peter at that t ime.<br />

He took his sword and cut off the ea r<br />

of Do soldier. We all rem embe r how, afte<br />

r th is, J esus was ta ken to the court.<br />

All th e disciples fled save Peter, who<br />

followed afa r off. Yes, Peter was the<br />

only faith ful one, but was he faithf ul?<br />

Xex t we s(>e him outsi de t he court being<br />

spoken to by a young mai d who<br />

said, in effect, " You're a f rie nd of t his<br />

J esus aren't you? "<br />

And we remember Peter's answer, "1<br />

know not what thou sayest." Then he is<br />

confronted by another mai d. Well P (::­<br />

ter, you big brave fishe rman what will<br />

you reply to her? Again he denies<br />

Christ. Accosted a th ird time, he does<br />

likewise wit h cursing an d swea ri ng.<br />

Xow where do we find Peter ? Where i s<br />

t hat brave fisherm an who was so conti<br />

dent in t he upper room? Where is tha t<br />

bold Peter now, who cut off t he soldier<br />

's ear in t he garden "<br />

We see him by an open fi re. Here is<br />

that fa ithful disciple war ming his<br />

ha nds by a n open fire. "Well," someone<br />

mig ht say, " what is wrong with that; it<br />

was probably cold out'!"<br />

Ta ke a look, my fr iend, at the other<br />

faces around t he fi re. What do you see ?<br />

I see drunken soldiers and a frenzied<br />

mob of cut-t hroat J ews, who were intent<br />

on murder. ::\Ior e than that, I see<br />

sodless ness. I see enemies of J esus<br />

Chri st. I see Peter, faithful Peter,<br />

warming himself by the enemies' fi re !<br />

Look, here comes Jesus. What will h ~<br />

~ :lY ? He says not hing ; he just looks into<br />

Peter's face, and Peter heard the cock<br />

crow , "And he went ou t, and wept bit ­<br />

terly" because of his sin.<br />

Look around the worl d to-day. Did<br />

not man at one ti me follow after God,<br />

just as Peter followed Chr ist ? Peter,<br />

to save his face, denied Christ. Man,<br />

for selfish reasons , forsook God. Like<br />

Peter, men and women to-day are<br />

wa rming their ha nds at t he en emy's<br />

fire .<br />

A school is not j ust a st ruct ure of<br />

you make it. It can be hor ri ble or it can<br />

be enjoya ble. It is the constant struggle<br />

of teachers a nd st udents together, st rl v­<br />

My Trip To<br />

Last su mmer I had t he wonderful<br />

opport unity of visiting th e homeland<br />

of my pa re nts in Crna Cora which is<br />

a section of Yugoslavia . ~ [ y fi rst stop<br />

was in the little t own of v ir-Pazar.<br />

the homeland of my grandmother and<br />

other relatives. This town was no bigger<br />

in siz e tha n one of our city blocks.<br />

:\108t of my summer was spent there<br />

and t here fore I learned much about th e<br />

little town. The people th em selves, who<br />

were extremely tanned from t he hot<br />

s un, were very warm hearted and ext<br />

re mely kind to me. Alth ough I wa s<br />

born in Can ada I was accepted as one<br />

of th eir own ; I knew th e language of<br />

th e Yugosla vian people fairly well but<br />

everyone was patient with me and<br />

helped me in all my needs.<br />

The standard of HYing I found wa s<br />

very low but t he cost of living was<br />

t remendously high compared to th e<br />

wages that the people received. The<br />

average sala ry a ma n receh-es for a<br />

month, not a week but a month. is<br />

six thousand dinars, wh ich in Canadian<br />

dollars would be ten dollar", A ma n<br />

with a family of three or four childre n<br />

would not have enough money to buy<br />

bread for a mont h let alone other food,<br />

Sanitary facilities such as washrooms,<br />

sin ks, and bath tu bs I fo und were lacking.<br />

In the town they did not have a<br />

drainage system and th e people had to<br />

get t heir water from th e main tap<br />

wh ich was located in t he centre of th e<br />

little town. Meet of t he people work on<br />

th ei r fa rms and others are employed<br />

in stores which are operated by t he<br />

Govern ment. On farms, crops of corn,<br />

potatoes. wheat, an d vegetables are<br />

produced. Also there are beautifu l<br />

Yugoslavia<br />

grape vineyards and orcha rds for f r uit.<br />

The people make a homemade whi skey<br />

and wine f rom the gr apes which t he~'<br />

sel l with other products in t he town<br />

ma rket square. The great majority of<br />

t he people live in a one-roo med stone<br />

house with no electricity.<br />

I stayed on the farm of my gra ndmot<br />

her and at the home of my uncle.<br />

When I was fr ee I spent my t ime helping<br />

t o do the farm chores. Every morning<br />

I went to the market square an d<br />

met many new people. On the farm I<br />

had an a mus ing ti me with my grandmot<br />

her 's donkey, "M pka." As t he donkey<br />

is one of t he chief animal workers<br />

I lea rned to cut, t ie, and load wood<br />

and ot her products on him.<br />

The scenery of the country is w ry<br />

beaut iful wit h its high mountains,<br />

beautiful clea r lakes, and long ri vers.<br />

Sometimes I went clim bing th e high<br />

mountains and out in the di stance I<br />

saw beautiful landscapes and scenes<br />

which I will never forget. I ha d adopted<br />

the usual routine of the people of goiug<br />

to bed ea rly an d rising early. Because<br />

the days were very hot with<br />

temperat ures usually over ninety degrees,<br />

I often went out to t he beautifu l<br />

beach overlooking t he Adriatic Sea .<br />

For pa rt of the ti me I t ravelled and<br />

visited the city of Titograd, formerly<br />

called xroutenezro. which is t he chief<br />

city or th e capital of Crna Gor a. DUl'­<br />

ing the war t he city wa s destroyed<br />

and now it is still in th e process of being<br />

re built. The city has a Nat ional Ban k,<br />

a Post Office, and one of the most<br />

modern hotels in Europe. Th e condit<br />

lons and standa rds of HYing in this<br />

city are greatly im pro ved and I had<br />

s. most enjoyable time sight see ing and<br />

visiting many of the historic buildings<br />

and places.<br />

I n the city of Zagre b. bea ut if ul<br />

sights were to be seen includi ng pa rks,<br />

museums and libraries, t heatres, and<br />

other buildi ngs. The people we r e<br />

fasblonablv dressed an d t his city could<br />

be compared to on e of our smaller<br />

Can adian cit ies. I really enj oyed th e<br />

out door restaurants where I ate my<br />

mea l to t he st rains of soft, bea uti f ul<br />

mus ic played by an orchestra.<br />

In conclusion I would like to say t hat<br />

I ha ve spent a very pleasant and exci t­<br />

people live and I have come to app reciate<br />

The R oyal Canadian<br />

H enley Regatta<br />

Last s ummer it was my privilege to<br />

be present at th e 74t h annual Royal<br />

Canadian Henley Regatt a held in Port<br />

Dal housie.<br />

Alt hough I know very litt le abo ut t his<br />

sport of boa ti ng , it did not take me more<br />

than a minute after the fi rst ra ce had<br />

begu n. to get into the spirit of t hin gs.<br />

At first . whe n t he competitors had<br />

started from t he bridge. it was hard to<br />

determ ine who was in t he lead, but. 8S<br />

thev ap proached t he stands t he coxes<br />

could be seen shout ing fu riously to the<br />

members of t heir eig ht. Before long, I<br />

found myself a ll t he edge of t he ben ch<br />

cheering on t he St. Cat hnrines eight<br />

who could be seen f'ardu the lead: 8t.<br />

Catharines came in for a glorious f inish<br />

at least fi ve lengths before t he Wyan·<br />

dotte Boat Club.<br />

A great many of t he entries in t he<br />

Rega tta were High School Eights f rom<br />

St. Catharlnes and surrounding cit ies in<br />

the Uni ted States and Canada . One of<br />

th e most t hrilling event s of t he dav wail<br />

t he fi nal J unior Singles won by Relatoza<br />

fr om :Mexico City. How t he crowd<br />

cheered whe n t he handsome )Iexican<br />

crossed th e finish and t he report of t he<br />

There were sixteen excit ing events<br />

in all which really th rilled me. especially<br />

when I thought of how much t his Regatta<br />

is part of th e established t radition<br />

of our great count ry as one of the<br />

na tions in t he Br-itish Commonwealth.<br />

In England boating is one of the most<br />

popular and oldes t activities on th e College<br />

Campuses. In t he words of the<br />

City Council of St. Cetbarlnes, th e Henler<br />

Regatta t ypifies t he best in s porting<br />

competit ion and it is synonymous wit h<br />

sportsma nship in its truest sense .<br />

A Ball of Fluff<br />

Ow ! Oh ! Ouch! )Iy frantic pleas for<br />

mercy fell on deaf ears.<br />

T he re ason for my distress can be<br />

summed up in fi ve words, a little girl<br />

named Bun ny. It makes a kitten wonder<br />

how such a pleasant appeara nce of<br />

golden curls. azu re eyes, and frill)' lace<br />

frocks could hid e f ro m view t he curiosity<br />

of a ca t, t he cunning of a fox. an d<br />

t he playfu lness of a puppy.<br />

)Iy mistress' curiosity ran bes t be<br />

shown by describing an incident wh ich<br />

happened about a week ago . The perfu<br />

me of dozens of flowers floated lazily<br />

in the warm afternoon air and Intoxic<br />

a t hick green carpet of A"1'ass under a<br />

cherr-y tree decked wit h blossoms. This<br />

peaceful set ting was soon distu r bed by<br />

a loud cIan A"ing as t hough scores of fire<br />

engines were ra cing down the st reet. It<br />

was not as destructive a scene as t hat.<br />

but to me is was j ust as terr-ify ing.<br />

Coming int o view was my toddler lugging<br />

a t ub of water with one ha nd a nd<br />

a large bar of soap grasped tightly in<br />

t he ot her. Countless pictures of torture<br />

flashed t hrough my mind. but t he one<br />

which would not leave me was one of<br />

mv drowni ng in the t ub of soapy water.<br />

After I realized that drowning was not<br />

on the schedule, my tail was held up<br />

at all times. I concent rated on a plan<br />

by which I could escape hav ing soap<br />

shoved down my throat. I gu ess my<br />

you ng lady wondered whet her or not she<br />

could was h me as well as I washed myself.<br />

and she must have found her a n­<br />

Impressions In a Garden<br />

Haw you ever noticed that many of<br />

the qualities we see f rom dar to dar<br />

in the people around us also appeal'<br />

in realms other than the hu ma n kingdom?<br />

F lowers, for instance. have many<br />

of the qualiti es an d traits of human<br />

beings.<br />

Th e violet is shy. She spends her<br />

short life in the clark, secluded forest<br />

along with many of her sist ers , wasting'<br />

her sweetness on the desert air.<br />

The rose, however. is bolder. She<br />

knows she is beautiful and does not<br />

mind having everyone else know it too.<br />

She is ext remely conceited. But would<br />

she act t his way if she knew her beauty<br />

wa s short Ii ved?<br />

Un like the rose, t he pansy cannot,<br />

be called bold. It almost seems as<br />

though she wants to joi n the f un but.<br />

lack ing t he confidence to do so, she<br />

flirts from under her great. dar -k<br />

la shes, and let s it go at that.<br />

The stately iri s, gra ciously bowing<br />

to her man y subject s, resembles a<br />

Oueen . She is constantly being ad mired,<br />

therefore she must remember to keep<br />

her back st ra ight a nd above all, to hold<br />

her hea d high.<br />

The yellow sun -flower, like a tall.<br />

brass hat, likes to lor d it over all and<br />

sundry .<br />

Rut the gossi ping petunias, gathered<br />

in groups along t he garden walk, seem<br />

A Strange Afternoon<br />

Si nce it was Saturday aftern oon an d<br />

I had not hing to do, I decided to take<br />

a little wal k to pass the ti me. Walk ing<br />

through the park I noticed on a bench<br />

an elderly man fee ding t he bird s f rom<br />

an old paper bag. His hair wa s gray<br />

and uncombed and ex tended down into<br />

a long and pointed bea rd. Under his<br />

bushy eyebrows could be seen two small<br />

slits resembling a pair of fierce an d<br />

darting eyes, wh ich reminded me of a<br />

pers on escaping. His pale, fa llen-in<br />

cheeks, set off by a long and pointed<br />

nose, made his th in lips, set in a cruel<br />

fas hion, even more vicious than t hey<br />

were and it made me sad to t hink that<br />

somebody ha d to own such a cruel and<br />

mean face. His hands were rough an d<br />

brown with age and were shaking a<br />

little like a child's after his first scolding.<br />

His clot hes did not do much to<br />

his appeara nce for t hey were old, ragged<br />

and torn in several places. On the<br />

whole, he was quit e a bad exam ple of a<br />

huma n being.<br />

As I stood there wa tching this<br />

wretched man, I heard a whistle an d a<br />

policeman cam e running our way. With<br />

a small cry an d with a f r-igh tened<br />

glance at t he policema n, he darted<br />

away at a spee d surprisingly quick for<br />

his old age. Just then th e policeman<br />

came runni ng up to me, asking which<br />

way had the old ma n gone. After giving<br />

him t he direction, t he policeman<br />

explained to me t hat t he old ma n wa s a<br />

dangerous criminal, and t hen went on<br />

his way shouting, "Stop him ! Halt !"<br />

As th ings quieted, I sat down on<br />

the bench that the old man had<br />

occupied, and wit h the torn paper bag<br />

at my feet, I realize d t hat it had not<br />

been ·a tiresome afternoon at all, but ill<br />

a way very strange .<br />

fish in it. discovered tha t he had<br />

caught nin e large t una. He therefore<br />

retur ned to the cove to get help f rom<br />

his fellow -fi shermen. and invited my<br />

cousin and me to come along"<br />

We sta rted out of t he CO\'e in a gay<br />

procession constst lug of a la rge motorboat<br />

with fin!' row-boats in tow. On<br />

arr-ival at the net. which had been ser<br />

near the isla nd of St. Peter in the<br />

mont h of S1. :\Iargaret's Bay. we sa w<br />

th at t he trap cons isted of a large rec ­<br />

tangular net st retchir ur from t he floor<br />

of t he bay to the surface . A long, t-,<br />

sha ped ent rance. which met t he main<br />

trap. left a space of about five fee t<br />

for the fish to enter. Once inside the<br />

trap. the fish swim around the net<br />

always in a direction f rom left to r ight<br />

and do not have t he sense to find the<br />

hole th rough which they han ente red.<br />

The fis herm en proceeded, t hen. to<br />

tie the motorboat to one side of t he<br />

trap. an d the largest row-boat. called a<br />

seine boat . was ti ed at the end away<br />

from the entrance. On the other side<br />

of t he t rap was fastened a "flat", th at<br />

is a small seine boat. To t he seine boat<br />

a net was t hen tied, called a spiller<br />

net, a nd t his was lowered to t he bottom<br />

of the bay where it occup ied about<br />

ha lf th e a rea of the trap. In the rest<br />

of t he t rap was put a net called t he<br />

sweeper. Once th is was done, t he<br />

sweeper net was hauled up quickly,<br />

th us enclosing t he fish in half th e t rap.<br />

The spiller net was t hen raised until<br />

there were about three feet of water<br />

left in th e trap.<br />

Once th e water began to get shallow,<br />

t he f i s h beca me frightened and<br />

thrashed about wildly, throwing water<br />

high into the air. After a while. however,<br />

as the fish quieted down , two fishermen<br />

seized and held them one by one<br />

with their gaff s while a third drove<br />

a pickaxe into their heads. Then the<br />

tuna, weighing, the fishermen estimated,<br />

from two hundred to six hundred<br />

pounds apiece, were hau led Into<br />

The Living Jungle<br />

From out of the infinite reaches of<br />

spac e it cam e, thundering like the vo ice<br />

of doom. Shiny , pointed, it descended<br />

with a migh t y roar t hat shook the<br />

ground, amidst a cloud of flaming gas<br />

and smoke. A last blinding flash of<br />

light. a deafe ning t hunderclap of so und .<br />

and it cam e to re st on the barren rocks<br />

t ha t rose ominously out of t he t urbulence<br />

of ta ngled vines and t rees. Small<br />

two-legged beings t hat walk ed erect<br />

emerged from t he meta l mons ter. There<br />

we re t hree of them .<br />

The jungle was silent. but it saw,<br />

and rea lized what it had to do. T he<br />

bei ngs made so unds to one anot her. T he<br />

jungle did not understa nd. nor did it<br />

t ry to, but only knew that they mu st<br />

be destroyed, for they were Invaders.<br />

The pilot was tired. A sui table spot<br />

to lan d the ship had bee n virtually<br />

impossible to fin d in the forsaken<br />

wilderness t ha t draped t he lonely plan et .<br />

were running out; the nav igator ran<br />

a high (eve r, and repairs were<br />

necessa ry.<br />

He st epped out of t he vessel, and<br />

gaz ed upon the expanse of wild untamed<br />

beauty stretching as far as t he<br />

eye could see, across the vast ho rizon<br />

surrounding him. The giant red star<br />

that was the planet's source of light and<br />

warmth hung in t he sky, bathing t he<br />

rocky clearlng in a crimson gla re. This<br />

he saw, and then he listened. Silence.<br />

Th reatening.<br />

He shuddered. and went back to tell<br />

the engineer to forage for anything to<br />

eat or drink. Having tended the feve red<br />

navigator. the engineer entered the<br />

dense . shadowy world of plants, The<br />

murky blackness closed in around him.<br />

Time went by, The repairs complet ed,<br />

the pilot. who had become anxious. left<br />

the last of t he food and wa ter for the<br />

sick navtsator. and prepared himself<br />

for a search. Armed, he strode into the<br />

soundless forest of steaming vegetation<br />

calling t he engi neer's name.<br />

Part ially over hi:' fe ver, t he navigator<br />

began to worry when a day had<br />

gone past. He had used up the last of<br />

the supplies left him by the pilot and<br />

perspiration streamed down his face ,<br />

Once more, he begun to sh out hystericullv<br />

Four days more he starved and<br />

thirsted. Emaciated, the bones showing<br />

He lurched screaming into the waiting<br />

arms of the jungle. The darknes.. enveloped<br />

A Weird Weiner Roast<br />

Wiener roasts are usually considere d<br />

pleasa nt gather ings around a blaz ing<br />

bonfire but th e one we had last s ummer<br />

was far from pleas ant . Since my<br />

gir-lfr -iend a nd I h ad decided that for<br />

once we d id not want to go in a chat tering<br />

crowd. just t he two of us selected<br />

a lonely. qu iet spot on the banks of the<br />

r iver and built o ur ca mp-fi re. W e were<br />

ha ving fun until it began to grow dark.<br />

T hen th e forest behind us f illed wit h<br />

g'hostly sha dows. and all th e familiar<br />

countrysid e suddenly gre w strange an d<br />

foreboding. We tried to kee p gay as if<br />

nothing had happened but all th e whi le<br />

we found ou rselves gla ncing nervously<br />

over ou r shoulders. F inally. not being<br />

nble to stand the creaklngs and queer<br />

noises all a round us, we hu rriedly<br />

gathered our things an d put out the<br />

fire. Rut as we rip-toed alonf! the rocky<br />

path lead ing back to camp, we wished<br />

that we st ill had the glow of the fir-e<br />

to g uide us for at least it would ha w<br />

offered some comfo rt in t he blac kness<br />

of t he night. Our fla shlight was almost<br />

dead a nd its pa le yellow light made it<br />

seem as if sinister faces were peer ing<br />

a t us f ro m behi nd every t ree. Harmles -,<br />

branches were suddenly changed t o<br />

writhing' ser pents an d a cow bell<br />

distantly ringing sounded like the<br />

clanking of chains. When fin ally, we<br />

tu mbled, weak with exh austion, into our<br />

tent we both breathed a silent prayer<br />

of thanks that the ee r ie ordeal was OYeI·<br />

and re solved next t ime to go with t he<br />

THE SIGNAL CORPS<br />

This rear, one of the first signs of<br />

cadet act lvitv in the school was t he<br />

reorganization of th e Sig nals Squadron<br />

of J.e.I. Cadet Cor ps. With the ass istance<br />

of :\Ir. :\ I c ~ a iI' , and t he senior<br />

cadets of t he squad ron, we bega n the<br />

regist r-ation an d inst ruction of over<br />

t wenty bo....s who wis hed to become conversant<br />

wit h the operation of Arm ....<br />

communications. The course gi ven on<br />

t his topic included work on most types<br />

of army wireless or radio sets, field<br />

telephones, an d meth ods of ope rating<br />

t hese efficiently. To clima x th e t ra ining,<br />

an examination, both practical and<br />

written, was gi ven t he bo....s to judge<br />

t heir proficiency.<br />

As usual, many of the boys pres ent<br />

on course were graduates of last r ear's<br />

course and veterans of a highly successful<br />

inspection which climaxed th at yea r.<br />

The Signals work at t hat inspection was<br />

praised by the inspecting off icers and<br />

school inst ruct ors. We can ani .... hope<br />

this ....ear's inspection is as encourag ing<br />

and gratif....ing.<br />

In closing, we would like to express<br />

our deep thanks an d apprecia tion to<br />

:\11'. J ewell, to :\Iajor Hill for his t remendous<br />

aid on every subject and<br />

operation, to :\Ir. :\lcXair for his splen ­<br />

did command and support, to all the<br />

teachers for t heir mar velous co-operation,<br />

and especially to the cadets the m­<br />

selves, for without t heir hard work.<br />

th ere would be no Signals Squadron<br />

at all. Than k you!<br />

THE WORLD AFFAIRS CLUB<br />

One of the high lights of t he club's<br />

activities last yea r was t he ret urn visit<br />

to Jarvis made by twenty-five studen t s<br />

of F lint Cent ral High School. The st u­<br />

dents arrived Thursday evening, April<br />

19, and were welcomed bv their en thusias<br />

tic teen-age hosts and' hostesses and<br />

pare nt s, complete with a "Skirt' of<br />

pipes and the ap pearance of t wo Royal<br />

Can ad ian :\Iounted Police Offi cers. The<br />

st udents of the United St ates History<br />

and Contemporary Problems class had<br />

come to discuss with members of our<br />

World Affairs Club the problem of Commu<br />

nist infiltrati on into t he western<br />

world . We, of course, were not trying to<br />

settle the issue, but to become aware<br />

of the situation an d show how we. 3 S<br />

yo ung Canadian s and Americans, may<br />

play our part as responsible, f reedomloving<br />

citizens of our re spective count<br />

ries. Aside from the mai n pu rp ose of<br />

t he t rip, the confere nce, t he F lint visit ­<br />

on; were int roduced to Jarvis at an<br />

assembly and addressed by such distinguished<br />

gues ts as Dr. Dunlop, :\11'.<br />

:\lor R"an and t he United Sta tes Vice­<br />

Cons ul to Toronto , :\11'. William Wright .<br />

The st ude nts attended classes with<br />

their hosts, and were entertained at a<br />

banquet at the sch ool with food repre-<br />

78<br />

sentlng the various national bac k­<br />

gro unds of t he mem bers. Th e week-end<br />

concluded with a party in the new gym .<br />

Hence, through t he conference and socia<br />

l activities a small group of Canadian<br />

and American students came to underst<br />

and better the ways and customs of<br />

ea ch ot her.<br />

A f urt her honour was given to Jarvis<br />

last year when Anton Capri, a mem ber<br />

of the club, was a first prize winne r in<br />

t he United Na tions sp eaking contest.<br />

He won a t ri p to X ew York and the<br />

United Nations building. This r ear we<br />

are to be represented by :Marc Sommerville.<br />

Las t f all one of the fi rst projects<br />

of t he club was the sale of U.X.LC.E .F.<br />

Christm as and enclos ure cards . The proceeds<br />

were to help bur milk and medical<br />

aid for children of underdeveloped coun ­<br />

tries. Congratulations to Joan Harman<br />

Model United Nations General Assembly<br />

J an uarv 18. and 19. <strong>1957</strong> were two<br />

of the most interestin g day:; of my life.<br />

They contai ned one Friday night and<br />

t wo Saturday sessions of the Third<br />

Annual Toronto Inter-Collegiate :Model<br />

Unit ed Xations General Assembly.<br />

That' s a long title for a project requir-ing<br />

long month s of pla nning, working.<br />

and learning.<br />

Jarvis' part in the proceedings<br />

started at a weekly meet ing of th e<br />

World Affairs Club in earlv October,<br />

The club chose sixteen of its members.<br />

to rep resent J arvis at t he assembly.<br />

79<br />

These sixteen th en met with simila r<br />

groups fr om th irty-two ot her schools<br />

III t he Toronto area at the Upper Canada<br />

College. Each school was given the<br />

name of a member countrv of the United<br />

Xations. J arvis was verv fortunate<br />

to be allowed to represent 'one of the<br />

major powers. t he United Kingdom.<br />

Th e participants t hen decided upon<br />

t he topics which t hey would study and<br />

discuss in t he ensuing month s. This<br />

r ea r we chose The Suez Canal Crisis.<br />

The Establishment of an Intern ational<br />

Trade Org an ization. The Ref ugee Prob-


lem. and Peaceful Uses of Atomic<br />

Energy. All schools were divided into<br />

fou r committees each of which would<br />

deal with one of the topics. The J arvis<br />

line-up was as follows : The Ref ugee<br />

Problem had chai rman Gordon 3Iichener<br />

: alt ernate J oan Harman; and obse r­<br />

vers Jona Eggertson and Bob Stewa rt.<br />

Inter national Trade had chairman<br />

Louise Rouse, alternate 31eg Graham,<br />

an d observers Ruth Robertson and Alan<br />

:'iluir. Atomic En ergy had chairman<br />

Ikuko Kam itakahara, alternate Inta<br />

::\Iezgailis and observer s Derek Ross<br />

a nd Ca rol Tomlin. The Suez Crisis had<br />

as its alternate Evan Monkman, wit h<br />

observers ::\Ia rtha Gray and :\Iary J ane<br />

Ferguson. I had th e honou r of being<br />

chairman of the Suez Crisis and chai r­<br />

man of the Jan-is delegation.<br />

Ha ving been assigned these topics,<br />

we then set out to learn all we could<br />

of Brita in's view with respect to the<br />

various problems. Seven Thursday<br />

night procedural meet ings were held to<br />

lea rn how to behave at the assembly.<br />

Sunday afternoon meetings were also<br />

held and the topic groups were spoken<br />

to by authorities on the various subjects.<br />

A t these meetings we drew up resolutions<br />

- plans for the solution of<br />

problems.<br />

The assembly itself was held in t he<br />

Onta rio Parliament Buildings in Queens<br />

Park. At the Friday night session, the<br />

chai rmen of the four committees from<br />

eac h school took the seats of the Ontario<br />

members of Pa rli ament. The remain<br />

ing twelve members of each dele-<br />

80<br />

za rlon plus anxious f r-iends and relatlves<br />

of t he pa rticipants sat in th e<br />

ga lleries.<br />

The Dag Hamma rskjold of t he assemblv<br />

was Stephen Lewis, t he first<br />

president of the :Model V .X . Steve vet<br />

things underw ay bv declaring the<br />

first Plenary Session of the Third Annual<br />

:)lodel United Nations General<br />

Assembly open. The fi rst t hing on the<br />

agenda was the election of officers. The<br />

keyn ote add ress was t hen delivered by<br />

J . A. Edmison Q.C.. vice-president of<br />

Queen's University. ::\11'. Edmison highly<br />

commended the keen inte res t displayed<br />

by all participa nts in worl d<br />

affairs. Applause was heard from t he<br />

United Kingdom delegation when :\11'.<br />

Edmison mentioned that he had spent<br />

his high school days in J arvis Collegiate.<br />

The agenda debate was scheduled to<br />

sta rt at 8.40. Then came th e introduction<br />

of resolutions. Each of the four<br />

committees was allotted a specific time.<br />

A speaker 's list was drawn up with<br />

speakers for and against each resolutio<br />

n. A delegate signified his desire to<br />

speak by writing a note to the secreta rygeneral.<br />

The :\Iodel Assembly had one<br />

Improvement on the New York version.<br />

We had pretty girls instea d of pages<br />

to r un our messagesl! Each topic was<br />

t hen moved into committee by what are<br />

known as procedura l amendments. Af·<br />

te l' a long, ext remely inte resting, but<br />

fatigui ng evening, deba te was adjourned<br />

at 10 o'clock.<br />

At nine A.:M. t he following morning,<br />

we returned to the Pa rli ame nt Build-


ings. All members of th e 'Atoms for<br />

Peace' committee returned to the General<br />

Assembly as this topic wa s chosen<br />

to be 'on t he floor of the house', The<br />

remai ni ng th ree committees met in<br />

separate rooms to d iscuss their own individual<br />

topics. This is the stage when<br />

most is accompli shed as every detail of<br />

every resolution and amendment is<br />

pulled apart.<br />

A t 12,:W commit tee debate was ad ·<br />

j our-ned and all delegates participated<br />

in a luncheon at Hart House. We were<br />

welcomed by t he warden of Hart House.<br />

J oseph )lcCulley. :\11'. :\IcCuiley was<br />

The delegates then returned to the<br />

final ses sion in the legislative chambers,<br />

The rapporteurs made reports of<br />

the activities of the committ ees in the<br />

morning meetings. These reports were<br />

t hen accepted a nd then debated upon<br />

by the plenary session. Closing ceremon<br />

ies were at 5.15. Thus ended three<br />

mont hs of preparations. Thus end ed<br />

t he work of OWl' fin>hundred Toronto<br />

Operation Vaccination<br />

The pupil s of Jervis and ot her<br />

schools were fortunate to be vaccinated<br />

against poliomyelitis this yea r. )Ianr<br />

people know nothing about this procedure.<br />

but as )"O U will see, manv painstaking<br />

steps are taken before a nYOne<br />

is inoculated.<br />

•<br />

First of all, th e three known types<br />

of polio virus are grown in a tissue culture.<br />

Thi s is really the method in which<br />

t he kidneys of monkeys are minced up<br />

fi nely and put in a large container wit h<br />

a nutrient fluid . This cult ure is incubated<br />

at body temperature for a few<br />

day s and t he n seeded wit h t he polio<br />

virus. A few days later th e flu id is<br />

removed. leavi ng t he raw polio virus<br />

fro m which the preparation of vaccine<br />

is started. Th e next step involve s t he<br />

add it ion of form aldehyde. This mixtu re<br />

is now read y for the incuba tor again<br />

where the poison kills th e vi r-us so that<br />

it is no longer able to pro duce poliomyelitis,<br />

This mixture is firs t tested to<br />

make sure that there a re no harmful<br />

bacterial diseases left. Another test<br />

is taken to see if living polio vi r-us is<br />

present by injecting monkeys and a few<br />

ot her animals wit h t he vaccine. During<br />

a t hird test, t he power of mak ing antibodies<br />

in t he blood is checked, The<br />

polio vaccine is now ready for wide<br />

distribution, Since man y precau tiona ry<br />

measures are ta ken. nobodv needs to<br />

fear getting polio f rom th e 'Yaccine,<br />

Even though Jarvis has many students<br />

t he vaccination program me was<br />

completed in two hours, The small gym<br />

which was set up as a headqua rters,<br />

,<br />

87<br />

contained t hree ta bles, At two of t hese<br />

sat t wo nurses who took t he vaccine<br />

cons ent cards from t he pupils as t hey<br />

were ident ified by the teacher, Only by<br />

havi ng t hese ca rds signed by our parents<br />

could we get t he vaccine, At<br />

another table sat two doctors wit h<br />

several syringes of the polio vaccine, a<br />

clear red solution, As each br-a ve st udent<br />

ma rched up. a new sterilized needle<br />

was used, Haying done t his important<br />

job at J arvis, t he nurses and doctors<br />

moved on to another school to inoculate<br />

more student s. As Canadia ns we must<br />

give grea t cred it to t he ma ny people<br />

devoting their life to the work of preventing<br />

polio,<br />

Students Entertain at<br />

Christmas<br />

On Th ursda y, December 13, a number<br />

of J arvis students entered th e au ditorium<br />

of t he Manufacturers' Life Insurance<br />

build ing to provide the musica l<br />

entertainment for the ann ual Christ mas<br />

party sponsored by t he Bar and Bloor<br />

Dist rict Associa tion, for th e incurable<br />

children of "The Happy Home," A f ter<br />

th e master of ceremonies had told a<br />

story to t he children , "The Four Tones,"<br />

Ron Benny, Bob Correll. Vel J ovancvich,<br />

and :\Iel Hipson. accompanied by<br />

Dani and Lidio Pomanti, sang "H ere<br />

Comes Santa Claus". This an nounced<br />

t he arrival of jolly old Saint Xick, who<br />

distributed presents to all the children,<br />

Ron took over as :\f.C. and "The Four<br />

Tones" sang a few selections, including<br />

"Jamaica Farewell" , Urve Soopere, accompa<br />

nied by a second violinist an d a<br />

pian ist, played a very beautiful rendition<br />

of Silent Xight. Another highlight<br />

of t he evening's en te rtainment was t he<br />

lovely carol "0 Holy :-;i ~h t " . sung by<br />

Helen Hansen. accompanied by Bob<br />

Stewart on th e piano, The progra m was<br />

concluded with t wo lively numbers by<br />

Dan ! an d Lidio on the accordion a nd<br />

guitar,<br />

The group was praised highly by all<br />

in attendance and a letter was later<br />

received by :\1 1', J ewell to thank him and<br />

the st udents, We left t he party with<br />

the hope that in ou r small way we had<br />

assisted those less fortunate th an ourselves<br />

to be happy in t he Yuletide<br />

Season,<br />

WHAT DO YOU THINK ? f<br />

To discuss issues which concern <strong>1957</strong><br />

J arvis st udents, a panel discussion was<br />

tape re corded wit h t he following leading<br />

students as pa rt icipants:<br />

Carol Et herington, President of Girls'<br />

of O. T. C.; Chris Parsons, Eat on's Rep.,<br />

President of the Boys' Club ; Wayne<br />

Wes ton. :\fagn et Edit or, :'tIoderator.<br />

Here are some of their ideas:<br />

Question : What will you remember<br />

mos t when vou leave J. C. I. ?<br />

RO:\IAN i-IORBAK- I' ll probably remember<br />

t he teachers most, :\Iiss St.<br />

John wit h her French ver bs, and :\Ir.<br />

Dyce and his "We ha ven 't t he s tory<br />

here now."<br />

CLYBURK DUDER-I t hink I'll remem<br />

ber my most emba rrassing moment.<br />

Last year, when we were playing bas ketball.<br />

we had fift y-eight seconds left in<br />

t he game against C-ent ral Commerce.<br />

:\11'. Warren pu t me on and everyo ne in<br />

th e gym clapped and yelled. It was<br />

really embarrassing J<br />

)IARY CA) IP BELL-The thing I'll<br />

remember most about the teach ers is<br />

:\11'. Nelson' s descriptio n of t he f irst<br />

World War.<br />

FORBES CAHEY- I'll probably re ­<br />

member :\11'. Ed Hill ; he's a good<br />

teacher.<br />

AKSLI E S:\t1TH-<br />

1 think I' ll remem-<br />

88<br />

her decorating for t he At Home at six<br />

o'clock on t he night of the formal. The re<br />

was a party at five after six.<br />

DAwx WILLSO:s'-I think 1 shall<br />

remember the teachers most, es pecially<br />

:\11'. Page.<br />

TERRY SARGEXT- I th ink I'll remembe<br />

r most worki ng on The :\Iagn et.<br />

I never worked so hard wit h so ma ny<br />

characters in my life .<br />

Ouest ton : Do yo u t hink there is too<br />

much or too little separation of se xes<br />

at Jarvis ?<br />

RO:\IA:s' HORBA~- I t hink t here is<br />

too much separation as far as not eating<br />

toget her. If some st udents want to eat<br />

together, t hey should be allowed t his<br />

pri vilege,<br />

FORBES CAREY- I th ink t he separation<br />

is f ine.<br />

A ~ S L IE S:\fl TH- I t hink it's perfect .<br />

We see enough of the boys and 1 t hink<br />

t hey se-e enough of us,<br />

CAROL ETIIERI KGTOX-I t hink<br />

ther -e should be more jo int eff ort on the<br />

part of t he girls and boys.<br />

KYOKO KA)IlTAKAHARA-I think<br />

the separation in Jarvis is okay. T hey<br />

tried hav ing the girls and boys eat together<br />

once and t he pupils went to<br />

:\11', J e well and as ked him to change it<br />

back.<br />

Qu£\!d.ion : How do you Ihink th e<br />

sc hool crga nlza tion you are in benefits<br />

t he school'!<br />

RO:\IAr\" H OR B A ~-I t hink The<br />

:\Iagnet is a good organization because<br />

it is to be cherished b)' all our s tudents<br />

after th ej.. lean"! J ani s,<br />

CLYBUn X DUDER- I t hink that<br />

the O. T. C. helps th e boys. teaching<br />

t hem dis cipline and leadership.


FORBES CAHEY- I t hink Simpson's<br />

Collegiate Club helps t he school by<br />

giving the st udents a chan ce to get together<br />

and become mutually acquainted.<br />

It brings the schools much closer together.<br />

A~ S L IE S:\I ITH-I t hink Simpson's<br />

Collegiate Club helps t he girls with<br />

fashion shows. parties. an d dance" at<br />

the Roya l York . It's a great asset to<br />

t he school on the whole.<br />

DAwx WILLSOX- l think t ha t Eat·<br />

on's Council helps t he school by providing<br />

t he band boxes for dance" four<br />

times a yea r.<br />

A~TO~ CAPRI- I t hink the O. T. C.<br />

is very good for the school because it<br />

teaches t he boys a sense of responaibilitv<br />

. The)' learn to ta ke orders as well<br />

as give them.<br />

TERRY SARGEXT-I t hink t he<br />

Boys' At hletic Association gin-s the<br />

lower school students a grea te r sense<br />

of moral stability.<br />

KYOKO KA:\IIT AKAHARA-As fa r<br />

as sports are concerned, I think the<br />

Girls ' At hletic Council is very beneficial<br />

to t he gir-ls of t he school. They learn<br />

how to accept their responsibilities and<br />

how to get along wit h others through<br />

th e competitive sports.<br />

CHRIS PARSOXS-I t hink the Boys'<br />

Club benefits the school because it puts<br />

on man y dances and works with t he<br />

Girls' Club. The two clubs get together<br />

and t he boys and girls learn to work<br />

tog et her well.<br />

Question : What do you th ink you<br />

have gai ned hy I{oinl{ to J arvis?<br />

:\IARY CAl\IPBE LL-I t hink one of<br />

th e things I' ve gai ned fr om going to<br />

J an -is is learning how to live wit h<br />

people of other nations: we hav e ...0<br />

many nutionali ties represented here.<br />

FORBES CAREY-I gained a lot<br />

from the ath leti c acti vities and school<br />

spirit.<br />

AXSLIE S:\lITH-I"-e be n e fit e d<br />

equally f rom the World Af fairs Club,<br />

th e operetta, and th e At Home<br />

Committee.<br />

DAW~ WILLSO~- I t hink I'v e<br />

gai ned most fr om th e sports in the<br />

school: they teach you how to get along<br />

with ot her people.<br />

AXTO~ CAPRl-1 think I've ga ined<br />

th e most fr om the World Aff airs Club.<br />

Through it I won an educational t r ip to<br />

Xew York as a guest of the United<br />

Nations.<br />

KYOKO KA:\IITAKAHAU.A- I t hink<br />

I gained t he most from t he athletics<br />

and th e operetta.<br />

CHRIS PA RSO~S-Y o u hay e a<br />

cha nce to develop your leadership in<br />

the clubs if you wan t to participa te.<br />

question: Do you t hink a t the senior<br />

commence ment t he teach ers should<br />

wear academic J{owns?<br />

RO:\IAX HORnAX- I think it's a<br />

good idea. Jt looks more scholarl y and<br />

dignified.<br />

:\IARY CA:\IPBELlr-Yes, I think<br />

they should,<br />

FORBES CAREY--I think that it<br />

should be a formal occasion. somet hing<br />

to look forward to after four or five<br />

rears of hard work.<br />

AXSLlE S:\I1TH-1 think that we<br />

should have a more fa ncy affair after<br />

the presentations.<br />

DA WX WILLSO~-I t should be an<br />

ent irely bigger affair th an it has been.<br />

CAROL ETHERIXGTOX-Since this<br />

is our 150t h annive rsary, we sho uld<br />

make it an even bigger commencement.<br />

The teachers should wear gowns, because<br />

it is t heir night as much as t he<br />

g rad uates.<br />

TERRY SARGEXT-I t hink it sho uld<br />

be a much more gala affair t han it<br />

has been up till now.<br />

KYOKO KA.:\IlTAKAHAR A- This<br />

r ear should be t he biggest r ear of all.<br />

Question: 1I0w do you t hink the<br />

school can he Improved ?<br />

R O:\I A ~ HORBAK-For one t hing,<br />

I think th ere should be more st udent<br />

act ivities between the teachers and<br />

pupils, activ ities where t he st udents and<br />

teachers ca n tal k informally and get<br />

better acqu ain ted.<br />

CLYBURX n UDER-This year we<br />

used to have to run up to Rosedale<br />

Park to play foot ball. and we didn' t get<br />

home until seven o'clock. I t hink a<br />

truck should be provided for transportation<br />

and ot her imp rovements made.<br />

:\IARY CA:\IPBELlr-To improve t he<br />

school in general. we need a better ty pe<br />

of st udent . I also t hink we sh ould ha n<br />

a bigger ya rd.<br />

DAWX WILLSOX- I th ink there<br />

should be more activities which get<br />

most of the people working toget her.<br />

TERRY SA R GE~l- 1 think We need<br />

a ya rd ; as it is now, we have abou t a<br />

25 square foot plot. :\Iost schools ha ve<br />

their own yards and a couple like East<br />

AN INTERVIEW WITH GRACIE FIELDS<br />

On t he evening of Febr uary 1, my<br />

fi nances stood at the low level of five<br />

cents. Telling no one but my mot her<br />

whe re I was going, I stepped into my<br />

Air Cad et uniform and walked down t o<br />

:\Ias lley Hall.<br />

One of th e greatest singers of the<br />

past fift)' years was to sing here to-­<br />

night and I was requesting an interview.<br />

I stood at the stage door for a moment<br />

almost deciding to back down . but t hen<br />

I knocked brisk ly and asked to speak to<br />

:\otis,::. F ields for a few moments. I was<br />

let in but told she had not arrived vet.<br />

So I stood t here talking t o t he doorman<br />

for about forty mi nutes whe n :\Jjss<br />

F ields arrived. Wit h a warm smile on<br />

her face. :\liss Fields told me that I<br />

could have an interview with her after<br />

the show but while I was waiti ng I<br />

should go in a nd see the show.<br />

For three hou rs she kept almost t hree<br />

thousand people capt iva ted wit h her<br />

warmth and exuberance. Besides some<br />

old favo uri tes we heard many new ones<br />

- sonil's that were gay and lyrical. son gs<br />

t hat - well, just made you forget you r<br />

troubles and be happy. :\Iany stood up.<br />

some wit h tears in t heir eyes - to si ng<br />

her te nde r fa rewell with her. Wit h her<br />

fam ous Yorks hire voice she led us all<br />

in God Save T he Queen. Then with a<br />

t remendous ova t ion behind her, she left<br />

the stage read y to brave t he crowds<br />

who wanted her autograph. Wit h a<br />

sm ile, a kiss, or a God Bless You and a<br />

fi r m ha ndshake she received each one<br />

of th e ...e people individually.<br />

I waited until all of t he others were<br />

gone and t he n sat dow n with )'li ss F ields<br />

and her husband. Her husband was a<br />

short t hickset man who was growing<br />

bald. He clasped my hand wa rm ly and<br />

asked how school was goi ng . )'liss F ields<br />

was looking well and I estima ted her<br />

age to be close to sixt y alt hough she<br />

looked younger.<br />

Get ti ng back to our intervi ew. she<br />

told me all about her home on t he Isle<br />

of Capri, near Naples. Italy. She told<br />

me of some of her chil dhood days in<br />

Yorkshire . Her husband was Quick to<br />

re member how he had met her in his<br />

youth on the Isle of Capri wh ere he was<br />

work ing as a n electrician. T hey both<br />

told me of some of t heir hazardous<br />

escapes in London during the war. t hen<br />

:\liss Fields wish ed t he Ja rvis Glee Club<br />

her best, and said she was pleased t o<br />

hea r t hat we were going to put on the<br />

Gondoliers. She asked me to write t o<br />

her about how the operetta was com ing<br />

and I sa id that I would.<br />

As we took our lean of each other I<br />

had t he feeling I was going away f rom<br />

a great perso n, I sa id good-bye.<br />

"God bless you ," she called after me.<br />

The 8inging rehearsals began and<br />

while many of us were a little hesitant<br />

about odd notes and phrasing. we tried<br />

T.S.S.A.A. Hockey Championship Team '56-'57<br />

Th e J arvis hockey team of <strong>1957</strong><br />

climaxed a most amazing season on t he<br />

nigh t of March 1, <strong>1957</strong>, by winnin g t he<br />

city cha mpionship at Map le Leaf<br />

Gardens. This marks the first time<br />

since 1930 that J arvis has won a city<br />

championship.<br />

The team breezed th rough t heir four<br />

exhibition games which included two<br />

wins over V.T.S., a 5-1 shellacking of<br />

Cent ral Tech an d a close 7·5 verdict<br />

agai nst Nichols High School in Buffalo<br />

on t he st rength of a t remendous team<br />

effort which produced four last period<br />

goals,<br />

J arvis opened the reg ular season<br />

wit h a t hrilling 3-2 win oyer :\Ialvern.<br />

Harvey Reynolds scored what proved<br />

to be t he winning goal in the third<br />

period. In t h.eir next game, goa ls by<br />

Turn bull, Chin, Reynolds, an d Clarke<br />

paced Jarvie to an easy 4-1 win over<br />

Danfort h Tech, Agai nst North Toronto<br />

standout goaltending by rookie Bill<br />

Gardner resulted in a 3-0 shutout win<br />

for J arvie. The team ra ng up t heir<br />

fourth win of the season, an d eight h<br />

consecutive win, by trouncin g Nort hern<br />

Tech 9-1. Starry cent re J ohn Gatten<br />

sat this one out with a lip infection.<br />

J ack Chin led the onslaught by firing<br />

a ha t t rick whil e Billy :McKinst ry playing<br />

his first ga me as forward in place<br />

of Gatten, potted two goals and set up<br />

t wo more, J arvis then hit its only slu mp<br />

of the season by losing games to Malvern<br />

and Danforth in their second<br />

meeting, The team ra llied t hough, to<br />

eke out an all-importa nt win over Kor th<br />

Toronto 3-2, Great defensive work by<br />

Agnew, Gatten and Paul Pea rson was<br />

t he highlight of th is game, Mel Tsuj i,<br />

right wing on the kid line with Reynolds<br />

and Treberg won the ga me for<br />

J arvis with a 8010 effort which produced<br />

t he prettiest goa l of t he season.<br />

Bj- eas ily defeating a winless Northern<br />

Tech crew, J ar vis wound up in a tie<br />

for first place wit h North Toronto. This<br />

forced a play down an d produced t he<br />

most exciting game of the season.<br />

Clarke put J arvis ahead 1-0, but t his<br />

lead was short-lived as North Toronto<br />

came back wit h three unanswered goals<br />

With only sixteen seconds rem aining in<br />

98<br />

t he ga me, Reynolds cut t he marg in to<br />

one goal. Then with Ampeff out of the<br />

J arvis net, J ack Chin, th e team's highest<br />

scorer , scored the tying goal with<br />

only one second left in t he hockey<br />

ga me, Jarv is the n won t he toss and<br />

were given a bye into the gro up fin al.<br />

Oddly enough t hey had to face t his same<br />

North Toronto team who had defeated<br />

Danforth and earned the right to ente r<br />

th e finals, J arvis not only lost the first<br />

ga me 3-2, but also lost the servi ces of<br />

all-sta r defenseman Bill Agnew who<br />

was given a one game suspe nsion. Faced<br />

with eliminat ion J arvis came up with<br />

a superh uman team eff ort and won t he<br />

game 4-1 and the total goal series, six<br />

goal" to four, Vladi Ampeff was miraculous<br />

in t he J arvis cage making some<br />

imposs ible sa ves. He was given great<br />

support by another all sta r, John Gatten<br />

, who played the game at defense<br />

in place of Agnew.<br />

Wit h th is win J a rvis won the right<br />

to represent t he east in the city finals,<br />

Going into t his championship game<br />

Jarvis was faced with their third game<br />

in four days aga inst a previously undefeated<br />

Western Tech team, J arvis<br />

outplayed their startled opponents and<br />

deserved t heir close 3-2 vict ory,<br />

The scoring punch was supplied by<br />

Gord Tur nbu ll with t wo markers and<br />

J ohn Gatten who scored wha t proved<br />

to be t he win ner. Bill Agnew was back<br />

for t his game an d was steady as a<br />

rock on defense. After the game pan demoni<br />

um broke loose and t he team was<br />

swa mped with loyal fans and well<br />

wishers, Much of t he cred it for t his<br />

season should go to t he t remendous support<br />

afforded t he team by th e st uden ts<br />

in t he fi nal game. Coach Ed Hill did<br />

a wonderf ul job in ta king over from<br />

Howie Cam pbell an d guiding us to th e<br />

title. Man y times his words of encouragement<br />

gave the team the spark<br />

they needed to pull t he ga me out of<br />

the fi re. Dave Bern stein ably ha ndled<br />

th e man ager ial duties and was very<br />

instr umental in t he team's fi ne showing.<br />

Wit h a good portion of the team<br />

returning next yea r the re is a good<br />

chance 1958 will be a repeat of <strong>1957</strong>.<br />

T.S.S.A.A. Senior Basketball Champions '56-'57<br />

T his yea r's senior basketball team is<br />

ind eed one of which a ny school would<br />

be pro ud. On th e 150t h anniversary of<br />

J arvis Collegiate, t his yea r's group of<br />

players won th e Toronto Secondary<br />

School At hletic Associat ion Senior Basket<br />

ball Championship ) lar. 2, <strong>1957</strong>, for<br />

t he first ti me since 1922 when ) 11'.<br />

A. E . Allin coached t he team . Th is, and<br />

t heir 12-2 season's record is just a<br />

small indication of their accomplishments.<br />

After dropping th e opening game of<br />

the season to La wrence Park C.L by<br />

fo ur points, the tea m accumulated nine<br />

wins in a row before bowing to X.T.C.I .<br />

54-52 in th e first game of the sem i­<br />

fi nal series. T hey overcame this two<br />

point deficit and won the ro und by<br />

sixteen points.<br />

Confident before the fin al game<br />

against Har bord, th e J arvis J ayvees<br />

fought ha rd against the oppo-dtlcn to<br />

take th e championship by the score of<br />

55-13 on )larch 2, <strong>1957</strong>.<br />

T he followi ng players made this pes ­<br />

sibl e :<br />

1. Kal Vahi - 6' I " forwa rd an d cocaptain.<br />

Ball games are won a nd<br />

lost on rebounds and Kal wa s th e<br />

reason th e J arvis squad ca me out<br />

on top. Although he was nicknamed<br />

" Rookie" , he played like a<br />

veteran.<br />

2. Xa t Kaiman - 5' 10" g uard and cocaptain.<br />

Xat had the knack of putti<br />

ng the ball through t he hoop<br />

when t he team needed it most. HE:<br />

was one of t he stead iest men on<br />

the tea m. (Sports Edi tor )<br />

3. Ivurs Tim ber !". - 6' g" cen t re. H I?<br />

scored :18 points during th e season's<br />

opener and was all-star cent<br />

re on the Star's Basketball Team.<br />

Hi s 26 points brought about th e<br />

downfall of Har bord.<br />

4. Barrie Sm ith - 6' 2" gua rd. The<br />

"general's" br illiant play -making<br />

and drive were decisive factors ir;<br />

winning the championship. He cont<br />

ributed 12 points in the final<br />

gam e.<br />

5. Rudy Rot h - 5' 11" forward, Rudy's<br />

aggressiveness at games overshado<br />

wed his clowning during<br />

practices, as he provided th e spark<br />

for the team.<br />

6. Bill Donaldson - 5' 8" forward . Bill<br />

was one of the hardest play ing<br />

men on the team . He ha d the<br />

t oughest job on our defence.<br />

101<br />

7. Bill Simmons - 6' 4" forward. Bill<br />

was chosen as all -st ar end on th e<br />

Tely's Foot ball Team t his yea r. He<br />

was used s pa ringly during th e<br />

season. but when Vahi beca me ill<br />

during t he fi nal game, Bill did a<br />

miraculous job in his place.<br />

8. Clyde Duder - 6' forward. Clyde<br />

has Improved 1 00 ~ ; ove r his play<br />

last yea r. He was called on ma ny<br />

ti mes and did a tremendous job.<br />

9. Bob Kauppinen - 5' 11" gua rd. Bob<br />

had the task of spelling off Smith<br />

at guard. When he did get on t he<br />

floor, he stuck to setting up th e<br />

other four men of his team.<br />

10. Doug Aubur n - 6' guard. Doug<br />

came up from the J uniors where<br />

he was a top point -getter.<br />

11. Ed Bonk - 6' 2" centre. Ed was<br />

Timbers' replacement at th e pivot<br />

position. He practised ha rd and<br />

we are looking forward to Ed's<br />

reappearance nex t year.<br />

12_ Alf Lesser - 6' 2" forwa rd. Alf is<br />

also in his fi rst yea r of senior<br />

basketball. Xext year, he will be<br />

a definite asset for til' at forward.<br />

Specia l tha nks shou ld go to man agers<br />

Sheldon Stlverberg an d Paul Goldst ein ;<br />

chief scout Hill Green as well as th e<br />

scorers. beca use th eir cont ributions<br />

were Important in our winning the<br />

champ ionship.<br />

There is one membe r of this team<br />

who has not been ment ioned above. He<br />

sat at th e end of our bench , qu ietly<br />

chew ing his fingerna ils, but never tak ­<br />

ing credit for the many games th e team<br />

won. I am s peaking of our coach. )11'.<br />

Graham Wa rren. To bri ng the J ayvees<br />

t o th e cha mpionship. he did evervthinc<br />

humanly possible. For many weeks, he<br />

spe nt long hou rs after school with the<br />

team. t ransforming twelve la nky enthuslsts<br />

into players of championship<br />

ca libre .<br />

As the season wore on. we, the members<br />

of th e team , forgot that he wa s a<br />

teacher at Jarvis. a nd cons idered him<br />

as a f riend to whom we could bring<br />

our problems. Everything about this<br />

man can not be put int o words or in<br />

such a small space in our ) lagnet. but<br />

it goes without saying. that without his<br />

endurance, patience. and coaching, t he<br />

J an -is J avvees could not have won<br />

the T.S.S.A.A. Sen ior Basket ball ti tle,<br />

So hats off to you , Coach War ren, and<br />

good luck in t he following yea rs.<br />

the boys fighting gamely, but due to a<br />

senior team than t hei r record ind icates.<br />

They were unfortunate, however, to<br />

play in t heir regular schedule the t hree<br />

top teams in th e east, Danfor th. Riverdale.<br />

an d Lawrence Park. In their fi rst<br />

game Jarvis led Danfort h 12·8 late<br />

in t he third quarter; t hen t he roof caved<br />

in. Danforth scored three unanswered<br />

touchdowns. Our big end Bill Simmons<br />

starred for Ja rvis by grabbing t wo<br />

touchdown passes.<br />

After losing to River dale, Jarvis was<br />

edged by Malvern 18-7. The feature of<br />

Interform Sports<br />

This ~..ear as in ot hers the sports<br />

season commenced wit h the an nual inte<br />

r-form touch rugby. As t he schedules<br />

were posted, each team would go out<br />

and play as well as possible unti l the<br />

final wh istle blew. But, there can be<br />

only one upper school cha mpion and<br />

this year 13A's team stepped into t ha t<br />

honou red position as it beat 12C in the<br />

finals. The members of 10E became the<br />

lower school cha mps.<br />

Wit h a new gym in t he school, ba s­<br />

ketball showed its prominence and its<br />

keen competition will probably influence<br />

t he school teams by producing<br />

better players. Of t he t hree teams f rom<br />

13B, 12B and lIB, it was the members<br />

of 13B who came out on top .<br />

The sports continued along the lines<br />

of hockey, volleyball, swimm ing and<br />

track while a new ri fle ra nge add ed<br />

enthusiasm to the shooting,<br />

:\1 1'. Hill is the man responsible for<br />

thi s program which enables every boy<br />

at J arvis to participate in the sports<br />

which he enjoys. We are most appreciative<br />

of th e time spent by him and t he<br />

Boys' Ath letic Association in plann ing<br />

it. So we thank you again 111', Hill for<br />

the complete sports schedule that you<br />

have organized fo r t he boys at J ,C.I.<br />

Junior<br />

This year t he J arvis juniors started<br />

early in the fall wit h long, hard practices.<br />

The team lost an exh ibition game<br />

to St. :lIjke's 9-0 due to the fact that<br />

th ree J a rvis touchdowns were called<br />

back. In their fi rs t league game J an-is<br />

bowed to Danfort h. Against Riverdale<br />

Les Hewson barged over for a to uch.<br />

26-6. In t hei r t hird league ga me J arvis<br />

Jarvis Athletes of the Last H alf Century<br />

Looki ng through the school history .<br />

I fou nd that th ere have been many<br />

sports greats who haw passed through<br />

th ese halls. :\Ian y we will not kn ow but<br />

just ask you r parents and see how<br />

many th ey will remember. Ask them if<br />

they remember Eugene Dopp. They will<br />

probably be able to tell you t hat he<br />

was :\1r . Lacrosse of Ontario.<br />

He won th e Cen t ury At hletic :lIedal in<br />

1913 and was 3 player and head of the<br />

Ontario Lacrosse Associat ion for over<br />

twenty years.<br />

Let's delve into the records and see<br />

who we find fi rst in rugby. The famous<br />

Va r sit y team of 1920·21 numbered fi ve<br />

J an 'is' graduates. Duncan, )Iurray.<br />

Pallace. Perl man. and Prendergast.<br />

L. ).1. ).Iurray was the quarterback and<br />

capta in in 1920 while Gordon Dunca n<br />

was the flying wing a nd captain in<br />

1921. T he teams of 1923-24 included<br />

Bob Teagle, president of the J arvis<br />

Boys ' At hletic Associat ion in 1920, Ben<br />

Walker and Louis Borsock. In the 1926<br />

season Varsity, th ree J a r vis ltes played<br />

on their championship team - J ohn<br />

Sinclair, kicker an d fu llback ; Lou<br />

Ca rroll; and Don Wood who was to<br />

play fo r t he Ottawa Roughrlders. Arthur<br />

Sm ith and Leslie Uren left J arvis<br />

to play bot h basket ball and r ugby at<br />

t he U. of T. Doug T urner, cen t re,<br />

had to be pa ssed.<br />

In th e Upper School Championship<br />

13C emerged on top, as t he victo rs,<br />

after a bitter battle wit h 12D. Tough<br />

compet it ion for th e Upper School ti tle<br />

was also gi ven by llA-2. The Lower<br />

School tournamen t followed with many<br />

new ent husiasts tu rning out. The final<br />

contest was betwee n l OA and l OG; th e<br />

players f rom l OG were finally victorious.<br />

I n the School Championship game<br />

th e coac hes of l OG found themselves in<br />

an unusual situation because they themselves<br />

were on t he opposition team, 13C.<br />

The two coaches compromised: each<br />

played one hal f of t he game and<br />

coached the ot her ha lf. T he grade t hirteens<br />

you can t ry to catch multi-colored fi sh<br />

liS t hey swim by. is something un .<br />

dreamed of by city-people. In tropical<br />

places like Florida and Califo rnia. t he<br />

water is crystal clear and dazzling<br />

color and beauty meet the eye under<br />

wate r. You wish you could star dow n<br />

forever. hut you remember t hat YOUl:<br />

air supply is limited. You see an octopus<br />

glaring up at you from his cave.<br />

It sends shivers down your spine. Thea<br />

you see a dull . light-brown fish cowerjn~<br />

around the sea bottom. You reach<br />

for it but swim away at full speed<br />

when it suddenly puffs itself to t hri ce<br />

its norma l size with ugly spikes st ick .<br />

ing out in eve rv direct ion. You begi n<br />

to get frighte ned. You shoot to the to p.<br />

A dazzling bright landscape greets you.<br />

You are back in f res h ai r. The experi ­<br />

ences you had in that silent world will<br />

be remembered for a lifetime.<br />
