and diverse contrasts. Scientifically classified the form members would be
divided into two groups headed quantity and quality, or youth and age,
which translates into respectively boys and girls. (The girls wear the green
skirts; the boys carry combs.) The fifth form girls are endued with wisdom,
stability and rheumatics. They are those who slave unceasingly at their
tasks to the point of consummation or collapse—unlike the boys who engage
in more earthly pursuits, e.g. football, etc.
In fact in the field of sport they excel. Here follows—
THE LIST:—
Football—A Grade: Gerard Van Eyk. David Farley. C Grade (Prem
iers): Alan Travers (Vice Cap).), Vitauts Klaikalietis, Roll Patterson,
Rodney Ives. Leslie Cleugh, Tom Swann, Stuart McDonald. 9 stone ( Pre-
iers) : Roger Sands.
Basketball—John Lindley (Capt.), Peter Bond. Andus Kichno, Walter
Morgan (also a shot putter).
Swimming—Jim Thallon (under 16 champion). John Lindley, David
Farley, Peter Driver.
Tennis—Barry Myatt. Peter Driver, Jim Thallon.
Golf. Hockey. Soccer, Athletics—Others too numerous to mention.
Thankfully, some boys are interested in school work including new
Australian, George Babkoff.
Determined to become men some day fourteen out of twenty-seven
boys are cadets and out of these, twelve are N.C.O’s. Although they would
never admit it (men are so conceited), 5th form girls are proud of some
5th form boys—their pride inflated somewhat by the boys' joyful willingness
to blow up basketballs, mark courts, etc.
Bowed down with responsibility, with duty, the girls can still bring
themselves to join in such rough games as basketball and ball-games wherein
they have proved on several memorable occasions that they can give as
good as they get.
Appropriately there follows —

pianists including Pam, Heather. Jen, Ruth Phyllis. Christine and Rob.
By a happy caprice of the examiners' Eunice, Jocelyn and Ross,
gleaned 8 A's in Junior and ex-Clevelander John Kennedy gained 9 A's.
END OF LIST.

of public exams, we say good luck—if it's not as bad as you thought it
