of t he one hundre d and fiftieth anniversarv of the founding of J arvis.<br />
In the century and a half of t he school's history. successive gene rations of pupils<br />
ha ve woven a pattern . varyi ng somewhat with th e times, in t he fabric of tradition<br />
that form s our link wit h t he past and inspiration for the future.<br />
And running t hrough t he fabric are sturdy t hread s-the school's ideals of duty<br />
a nd responsibili ty. of integrity . a nd self-reliance and of courtesy and tolerance.<br />
:\Iuch of our pride in the J arvis of to-day stems from the school's emphasis on<br />
sound schola rs hip and its fait hful adh erence to t he old ideals.<br />

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 />
pass befo re you. You wish you<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 />
th an hook lea rning.<br />

music. Everyone had season tickets .<br />
The gi rls wore their best winter coat...<br />
or suits, their best hats, always white<br />
gloves, and spats to cover t heir black<br />
skating boots. The boys were equall y<br />
well t urned out, including fedoras. Att<br />

"crack the whip" after the band<br />
departed - no one had heard of the<br />
"Ice Follies! " This form progressed<br />
together t hrough the succeeding school<br />
yea rs, t hough marred by the absence of<br />
severa l of the boys who enlisted from<br />
Jarvis during World War I. The f r iendsh<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 />
' 0. : ~~ a cavalcade of cars around th e<br />
block. and tr.e burial of the Rugby<br />
ba li in the scboolvard. I wonder if it is<br />
still there. or if' and when they were<br />
diggi ng the foundations for the new<br />
section, they dug up the ball carefully<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 />

It W3 >1 as a person that Laura Smit h<br />
son had her greatest influence upon<br />
me ; the quiet and beau ti ful modulation<br />
of her speech : the easy as sura nce of<br />

solid classical foundation) ; the perfect<br />
grooming and simplicity of dress ; the<br />
prominent glance of brilliant eyes ; t he<br />
flash ing rapier wit; t he quick an d wide-<br />
sp rea d blush ... all of these were rew<br />
aled to us in our daily contacts in<br />
the classroom.<br />
As a teache r of clas sics she was brtllia<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 />

After t he ninety-seven recipient s of<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 />
Centennial Scholarships. Centenary<br />

School Spir it P rizes,<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 />
th en presented by Mrs. Pearson, an old<br />
friend of J arvis and for mer trustee, to<br />
Susa n Foster, Eric Bolling, Bob Stewart<br />
and Jane Ba rker . J ane, who Is at<br />

the singing of the "O ueen". the au ditorium<br />
ended.<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 />
the girls' cafete ria for tea, while the<br />
large gym vibrated wit h popular music<br />
and t he ene rgetic dancing of the young<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 />

On Writing a Sonnet<br />
Wit h puckered brow I slowly sit me<br />
down '<br />
And lif t ~y pen to write I know not<br />

But fairest sleep on me does sternly<br />
frown,<br />
And makes. ala" my weary brain to<br />
blot.<br />
The azure skv no inspiration lend:"<br />
And feeble strokes or doodles fill my<br />
page ;<br />
It surely seems my sonnet here will<br />
end,<br />
I' m su re that I have waited for an age<br />
For insp iration that I know I lack.<br />
).ty na me sha ll ne'er go down in poet's<br />
fame<br />
-But wait! :'Ity hea d I need no more<br />

A glowinK light has pierced my foggy<br />

Spring up beneath my pen so :ol,weet<br />

The Monarch of<br />
The Plain<br />
A tall, statelv t ree alone does reign ,<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 />
stand.<br />
About to gin some high comman d.<br />
When, suddenly a gale does blow.<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 />
It s seeds are scattered far and wide.<br />
They'll grow, and then in years to be,<br />
Will st and, like her, in majesty.<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 />
Wind tanned faces shine and gleam<br />
Con templating fresh made tracks.<br />
Steadily we climb th e "lope<br />
In great exhilaration<br />
All is cheerfulness and hope<br />
And wi ld an ticipation.<br />
A t the summit. friends we greet<br />
And breath we do regain.<br />
Then. skis securely hooked to feet .<br />
We view the steep te r rain.<br />

The Sinking of a Ship<br />
Great waves beat strong against the<br />
heaving hull .<br />
Cold. winds now wrench away the<br />
st r-aight strong mast. .<br />
The angry clouds above, their faces<br />
dull ,<br />
Spit down cold rain. Below. a sudden<br />

Sends salt sp ray o'er the ship, that dip"<br />
to give<br />
Temptation to the ocean. hungering.<br />

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

Huge silvery hoar caps rolled in;<br />
A hushed lull followed.<br />
And more lucent caps<br />
Advanced to linger in the sedate lagoon.<br />
The silhouette of the lone seagull<br />
Hovered over the foaming reef;<br />

The peaceful rhythm of the breakers,<br />

Would put in the trembling hand<br />
A harmless concoction of st range-seeming<br />

Which, whispered she. was a cha rm<br />

Of add ers' tongues and se rpents' wings.<br />

Approached her love wit h brighter eye<br />

And won him.<br />
But soon t he pangs of conscience took<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 />

for rest - but rather, it is complete<br />
surrender. The fi re saps all st rength,<br />

forever.<br />
A tongue of flame darts toward me<br />
along a twig of pine. It ill a d ra gon's<br />

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

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

School<br />
A school is not j ust a st ruct ure of<br />
steel, wood, an d br icks, filled wit h<br />
desks, chalk, and books, It is the students,<br />
man y different kinds of students,<br />
coming from foreign countries and<br />
Irom righ t across th e street. It is also<br />
t he teachers, scolding at some times<br />
and helpful at others. A school is what<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 />
ing for a common goal in st udies , activities,<br />
and sports. It is t he sharing of<br />
S UCCtoSS or bitter defeat. It is an experience<br />
whic h makes us ready to take on<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 />

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 />

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 />

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 />

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 />

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 />
He had been or bit ing the ship a rou nd<br />
the world for hours, sea rching. A land-<br />

ing had to be ris ked. fina lly, for supplies<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 />
for his crewmates. sick with fea r.<br />
:\0 an swer, The t rees looming, forebod<br />
ing. around him replied not. lie<br />
called once more into t he everlasting<br />
silen ce. and sank down, exhausted.<br />
Four days more he starved and<br />
thirsted. Emaciated, the bones showing<br />
t hrough hi:' flesh . his mind snapped.<br />
He lurched screaming into the waiting<br />
arms of the jungle. The darknes.. enveloped<br />
him.<br />
The t hreat eliminated. its task fin <br />
ished, the ju ngle stirred once more,<br />
and sle pt .<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 />

Crowds<br />
In a cr owd of people, anything can<br />

so confused and f r ustrat ed tha t<br />

such a place again (a nd they aren't,<br />
until the next t ime) .<br />
I n crowds are people who a re wai t<br />

rush in to the barga in basement of a<br />

they would lik e to do whe n they join<br />
t he mob , but t hen t hey suddenly fcr.<br />

A wom an, you will find, is m uch bettel'<br />
at getting through crowds than a<br />
man, because. as vou mar have noticed.<br />
she will elbow and charge he r wa v<br />
thr-ough , while a man will pause and<br />
say, "Excuse me. please," fo r quit e a<br />
while before he works up a r age an ti<br />
t attles his way past an obsta cle.<br />
In every crowd are found children<br />
playing around. dropping money or<br />
trying to find mother . These little<br />
villains will w iggle the ir way bet ween<br />
t wo people, no matter how sma ll the<br />

thev va rv their books too. I do not wa nt<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 />

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 />

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 />

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 />
run of bad luck and a few bad breaks,<br />
they were edged by Riverd ale, Lawrence<br />

game fou nd us in much better shape,<br />
however , and the team came through<br />
with a decisive win over Danforth Tech.<br />
In our next ga me. Northern Tech,<br />
whom we defeated in an exhibition<br />
game, were j ust able to eke out a will<br />

the tea m put for th a tremendous<br />
effort and came very close to defeati ng<br />

This yea r Jarvis had a much better<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 />
t his ga me was t he hard ru nning by<br />
half-backs Pet e Clarke and Terry Sargent<br />
through large gaps opened in t he<br />
Malvern line bv th e st alwart J arvis<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 />

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 />

Bob Teagle, president of the J arvis<br />
Boys ' At hletic Associat ion in 1920, Ben<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 />

Volleyball got off to a good start with<br />
twenty-three teams turning out to the<br />

and concluded at th e begi nning of<br />

games wa s outs ta nding because this<br />
year, for th e first ti me, a t est for officials<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 />
displayed th eir supremacy by<br />
taking the School Championsh ip. Cong<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 />
