I' r \ Tyler, Marv - Honourary President Classof'69 Quinn, Mike SCIENCE - Brandon This year the graduating class chose as its Ho nourary Presiden t a well-liked and respected Political Science professor who inspires class participation and is a fIrm believer in coffee-er seminars! Hailing from Winnipeg and sporting his B.A. from United and his M.A. from Western, Marv Tyler will leave us to pursue further studies in Winnipeg on city planning. Marv will be fondly remembered for his convivial jaunts to the pub with the guys, his lovely wife, his unique fur coat, his red Firebird and a Scottish wolfhound called Hamish which some of us vaguely remember at the terrillc Grad party hosted by the Tylers during Grad week. Mike has worked hard and given much of his time to the students of Brandon Un i versity both in the area of publications for the Student Union, and as President of the Class of'69. As dedicated to bridge as he is to zoology, Mike is active in all realms of University life. We predict that Mike will be as well-liked in the future as he has in the past and that the tradition of those fabulous parties at Quinn's will be carried on. Malyon, Brenda SCIENCE - Glenboro Hunter, Peter SCIENCE - Brandon A ski enthusiast who is always willing to lend a hand, Pete organized the Winter Carnival ski excursion for the past two years, as well as taking on the responsibilities of Grad class social convenor.

Perkin, Marion ARTS - Brandon Secretary-treasurer for the Class of '69, Marion divides her time between B.U. activities and frequent trips to Winnipeg. As a member of the Grad girls' hockey team, Marion had better luck keeping her uniform intact than she did as a member of the Undergrads' broomball team. A Psychology scholarship student, her future plans include Speech Therapy at the University of Toronto. Brenda proved her sociability and effIciency as social convenor for both the Science Faculty and the Class of '69. She served on the Residence Council for three years and truly deserves her B.U.S.U. gold pin. The life of any party and the instigator of many famous (? ) H-hut antics, Brenda has made many lasting friends. However, her russet tresses lend her the temperament necessary to deliver a verbal kick in the pants as quickly as a hug, when deserved. Brenda's interests up North have led to plans for marriage this summer and a teaching career in Princess Harbour. / Ajila, James ARTS - Nigeria Archibald, Leslie ARTS - Rapid City A keen Political Science major and President of the Debating Club, Jim, who is affectionately known as "O.A.V." is a friendly gentleman. He hopes to take graduate courses in Political Science. On his way home to Nigeria, Jim plans to stop in Ghana for his "Bachelor of The1malogy". The "O.A.V." members wish him every success! Renown for her long red hair and distinctive dress, Lesli who started out in the Faculty of Music, chose to major in Sociology instead. Her musical talents were not neglected, however, for she performed in a folk group at many university functions. Lesli plans to tour Euro pe before proceeding to her M.S.W. Anderson, Cheryl ARTS - Brandon Armstrong, Joan SCIENCE - Hargrave An English major, Cheryl is convinced that her most notable feature is her blush. She is a popular member of our group and her interest in the supernatural stimulates many lively discussions. Cheryl's recently acquired diamond spells a future in Winnipeg and we wish her every success in both of her chosen careers. One of the few girls in Science, Joan's main interest lies in the realm of sports. She has played two years with the Varsity Basketball team, participates in all intramural events and is a very faithful Bobcat Booster. Joan is also a loyal "Class of '69" supporter and enjoys a good party, a dance. Archibald, Gaylene SCIENCE - Rivers Gaylene has been one of the more adventurous young ladies on campus, with a double major in Physics and Maths.

A History major, Lorna is one of our out-of-the-province graduates. She has taken an active part in student debates and she is also known for her singing performances with F.U.B.A.R.

We are confident that he will excel in his chosen career of chartered accoun tancy. Bauman, Irene ARTS - Brandon Boyd, Darlene ARTS -Ninga Married, with a family, Irene is the kind who puts her mind in gear before she puts her mouth in motion, then she lets you know exactly what she thinks. She mayor may not go back to teaching, but she will enjoy whatever she does. Combining Psychology and English, Dar brings tears to the eyes of the Psychology staff with her literary contributions. In first year Dar was a member of the Photography Department and also found time to teach swimming at the "Y". After spending a summer in Alberta, she returned to B.U. only to take frequent trips to Winnipeg, which seemed to hold some mysterious attraction. Music is Dar's "bag" - both listening and playing. Her future holds a year in California and perhaps a career in Library Science. Brandon, Lon ARTS -Carberry Bertram, Lawrence ARTS -Erikson "Smiley" is a well-known member of the Class of '69. Besides intramural sports, he played for the Varsity hockey team for the last three years and spent one season on the football team. An Economics major and an outgoing personality ensure him of a successful future. Blanchard, Jim ARTS - Bran don Following the example of past students who have hailed from Carberry, "Canada's only Desert", Lon is a quiet yet interested person. Lurking behind that easy-going personality is a good student who always is among the top in his class. To those who know him, Lon prooves to be a dependable and friendly acquaintance. Lon seems to be heading for graduate work in his chosen field, Botany. Beneath those curly locks (which convention finally doomed to be shorn) is the ability which assures him success. Jim has contributed to the campus life ofB. U. in his own unique way. Long will we remember his dramatics ability, his clever literary work and his dedication to the field of history. But, above all else will be remem bered for his keen sense of dry humour! Good luck in the years ahead, Jim, and thank you for your many valuable contributions to our campus. I '-/ Brawn, Dale ARTS - Brandon Brownlee, Ross ARTS - Brandon Dale is a well-known figure on campus who has been involved in such diverse activities as politics, curling, and the Quill, as well as supporting social functions and substitute teaching!

Over the past three years Ross has played football, hockey, and basketball with the Varsity teams. Basically shy in his approach to girls, he will date only occasionally if asked. As a sportsman, Ross is a true gentleman and will surely fmd success in the career of his choice. Brereton, Marion SCIENCE - Brandon Bullee, Irene ARTS - Brandon As witty as she is tiny, this sweet blonde miss is a joy to be around. Otherwise known as "Mary-On", she can often be found socializing in the library while Ed studies! As well as secretary for the Science Faculty Marion has been an avid supporter in the past three years of all University activities. Mrs. Bullee is defmitely one of the more ambitious member of our class. Mother of two children, she hopes to get her B.Ed. degree this summer, after her B.A. in May. She is well-known to all students of religion for her outspoken, candid and thoroughly modern opinions and will make a wonderful teacher. Brown, Warren SCIENCE - Brandon Warren has proved himself a very capable and dedicated External Vice-President. A canteen philosopher of no mean repute, his generally imperturable temperament gives way to an awesome fury when his unruly red locks are ruffled. Warren could go far if he would just come back to that little dab of in order to retain his composure! Burneski, Linda ARTS - Brandon Colli, Terry ARTS - Virden Linda is a Philosophy major who constantly tries to convince you that what you say is not really what you mean at all. She is hoping to take Education in Winnipeg next year. It seems that Winnipeg is closer to Grand Forks - a place where Linda's thoughts quite often wander. Terry is an Economics major and ifhis success in university is any indication, we can expect great things from this native of Virden. He is one of our class who will be leaving the ranks of bachelorhood after graduation, and we wish Terry and Lorna all the best. Cantin, Kathie ARTS - McCreary Crabbe, Judy ARTS - Neepawa Kathy, a very active person on campus is an En glis h major, SecretaryTreasurer of Women's Residence, a member of the Glee Club and an attractive friend to all who know her. Before her lies the teaching profession in which she will easily charm her students into wanting A grades. 1969-'70 will most likely fmd Judy teaching Junior High School in one of the rural areas of Manitoba where her bright smile and winsome manner will gain the confidence and respect of her students. Her aspirations for the future include eventually branching off into guidance. Chastko, Louis SCIENCE - Sandy Lake Louis is the quiet Frenchman who comes over loud and clear at a class party when the lights go out. Due to an unfortunate accident in his second year, Louis was forced to leave university for a year. He got married (which had nothing to do with the accident) and moved to Thompson where he worked for a year before returning to Brandon to join the class of'69. \ .. Currie, Bill SCIENCE - Carberry Doerksen, AI SCIENCE - Alexander Bill has been one of the more "active" students at B.U., and is known for his sometimes radical opinions and philosophies of life. A member of the B.D. badminton team, Dean of the third floor of Men's Residence, and Editor of the Quill, Bill's interests have led him into many areas. His skill in dissections is much admired in the H-hut and is befitting a student who plans to enter the field of medicine. AI is a quiet fellow whose potential frequently astounds his classmates. A Physics major, he is noted for being "sucked in by his self-built vacuum pump" in the Physics lab. In the capacity of I.V.C.F. President, he makes frequent trips to Winnipeg, but we wonder what other attractions draw him there. Success is certain in AI's future. Davies, Pat SCIENCE - Portage la Prairie A recent convert to the Faculty of Science and a welcomed one at that, Pat is a scholarship student who takes a very active interest in sports on campus. At B.U. she has been Women's Athletic Rep., a member of the Varsity Volleyball, Basketball and Badminton Teams and an ardent Bobcat fan. Pat will be an asset to I.B.M.

Our good wishes go with Ernie as he makes his way in the future. Margaret is kept busy with essays in having a double majot - Psychology and English. However she still fInds time to take an active part in the Liberal Club and W.U.S., for which as Publicity Manager, she led a very successful Treasure Van publicity campaign in 1967. Margaret's ability to get along well with people will prove helpful in her career as Speech Therapist. Endall, Ruth ARTS - Brandon Dutkewich, Harney Paul SCIENCE - Swan River An easy-going student with a pleasant disposition and good sense of humour. We think he is a Math major, but it is rather hard to determine since he is seldom at class. His future looks promising as it includes plans for marriage and teaching. Eastley, Ross ARTS - Nesbitt Ross's future is already well-planned. He is engaged to be married in the spring and will begin work with a Chartered Accountant fIrm shortly after. His friendly personality and hard working habits ensure him a successful career. Class of '69's Freshie Queen, Ruth has shown her organizational ability as W.U.S. Chairman and by convening Grad '67 and this year's Winter Carnival. Her cheery smile and bubbling enthusiasm will certainly be assets in her work as a Clinical Psychologist. Eiriksson, Siggi SCIENCE - Brandon Farnell, Stu . ARTS - Brandon A friendly and hard-working person, Siggi is one of those rare students having a double major in Physics and Philosophy. In spite of the formidable challenge presented by his studies, he still fInds time to organize weekly ou tings for approximately thirty Welfare children in Brandon. Siggi's ambition is to be a lawyer, and we wish him success in attaining that goal. Stu is a very ambitious man who has worked on his degree while teaching in high school in Brandon. His athletic abilities have led him to participate in both basketball and football at B.U. as well as coaching high school teams. As if this were not a busy enough schedule, a large part of his life is devoted to his role as husband and father. Ferris, Judy ARTS - Elkhorn Ewasko, Steve SCIENCE - Basswood Like any other devoted Chemist, Steve may be found in his natural habitat, the lab. The fact that he is an instructor will be good practice for this future teacher,. Unfortunately, B.U. will lose him to Winnipeg for his continued training. Fair, Kerry ARTS - Brandon A quiet sophisticated young man with a will to succeed, Kerry plans to continue in the fIeld of Social Work after graduation. Although he is a married member of our class, Kerry still fmds time to participate in many activities where his friendly advice is much appreciated. This Psychology major with the "long red tresses" and infectious giggle is interested in drama and French. Perhaps the latter can be ex plained by the fact that she has spent the past two summers working in Montreal. Judy's future includes plans to travel and we all wish her a "Bon Voyage". / Forman, Carl' Findlay, John SCIENCE - Brandon Carl, a commercial pilot at heart, finds it more convenient, and less time consuming when Physics assignments are done via group effort. Best wishes to Carl in a successful flying career. John is one of our quieter classmates and an Economics enthusiast too.

She plans to further her education in Edmonton next year and then to receive her Master's degree. We wish her the best of luck, but knowing Lynn, her success will not depend on luck. Pamela is valued by many for her quick wit and friendly personality. An English major - History minor, she would like to travel, and teaching or Library Science are possibilities in the future. Whatever her choice, we wish her the best. Fraser, Clark ARTS - Vancouver Grobb, Lylle ARTS - Justice This man is constantly on the go. As chairman of the Athletic Council and Athletic Representative, he held a seat on the Student Union Executive. Clark was a capable basketball team manager and this year he organized a fabulous first Annual Inter-Faculty Pub Crawl in connection with the Winter-Carnival. Clark has his pilot's license and flying is the love of his life. The future sees Clark possibly at V.B.C. for Geography or as a commercial pilot. Lyile is a member of the football squad and active supporter of class functions, however a great deal of his spare time is spent off campus. His immediate future plans are Education 1. Best ofluck! Garbutt, Sharon SCIENCE - Brandon Sharon is one of the more conscientous students of the Class of '69 who has been able to retain her entrance scholarship for the past three years. With a double major in Botany and Zoology, she can usually be found somewhere in the H-huts peering through a microscope or helping some busy professor. Her enthusiasm and outgoing personality will certainly lead to a successful future as a Biology teacher. Gray, Dale ARTS - Brandon Gerrard, Heather ARTS - Elphinstone Residence holds no restrictions for this redhead who managed to partake of most class functions. Her sense of humour and her spastic good nature have made her well-liked by all who knew her. Another English major, Heather plans to take Education in Winnipeg next year and from there a teaching career ensues. We wish her all the best in the future.

Gooden, Kent SCIENCE - Brandon Grambo, Arnold ARTS - Brandon In high school they said it couldn't be done; but they were wrong. With his graduate certificate in hand, with his scientific enthusiasm and personal magnetism, Kent will be sure to fmd himself engrossed in a lifetime of happy, fruitful pursuit. F r ie n dl y , genial and ambitious, Arnold is on sabbatical leave from Brandon School Division #40. Proud father of two young boys, he still fmds time for curling, golf and ch urch activities. With such a busy schedule it is amazing that he maintains an honours average. Arnold will certainly do well in his chosen field of Special Education. Gorrie, Chuck ARTS - Brandon "Chuck" is a friendly, outgoing person, who deviates his year between studies and running his own business during the summer. However, he will be remembered best for his efforts at making "seminars" an enjoyable weekly event, and as a fledging member of Brandon's Jet Set. (Weekend trip to where? ? ) Grant, Cordell ARTS - Brandon Graham, Margaret MUSIC - Lethbridge Marg returned to fourth year accompanied by her Engineering husband of three months. However, domestic bliss has not prevented her from remaining at the top of the class. During her stay at Brandon she has consistently participated in campus activities, especially contributing literary efforts to the dramatic society. She is an accomplished all-round musician and we wish her well in her chosen career as a music educator.

We are sure he will be successful in his career. Haarmans, JoAnne ARTS - Rapid City A very impressionable young lady who really gets involved in campus activities. She is an English major, but has decided to take up a career in teaching and guidance counseling. We are sure that with her empathetic qualities she will be successful in all her endeavours. Halls, Gordon, Allan SCIENCE - Rivers \ \ \ Haddad, Elias ARTS - Israel Elias comes to us from a very interesting background as he was a Christian Arab teaching in Jerusalem before he came to B.U. A fascinating conversationalist, Elias has made many friends on campus and in the community at large. Always on hand to participate in social activities at the university, Elias's participation in International Night both as a performer and an organizer has been a welcome asset. Allan's quiet but winning manner will take him far on life's road. A lover of the outdoors and farming, there is no European summer planned for Allan, rather he plans to take up farming after graduation. Harris, Rae ARTS - Brandon Haynes, Robert ARTS - Brandon After spending a year on the college library staff, Rae joined our band of Freshies in September '66. She has been a very busy girl, successfully combining the duties of wife and mother with her academic pursuits. Rae is an English major and plans to do some teaching in the near future. Bob Haynes is one of those exceptional students who tackled a quadruple major - canteen, the magazine section of the library, History and Political Science. An athlete as well as a scholar, Bob was a stalwart member of the Bobcat football team for the last two years. Looking ahead, we can see a bright future for Bob in education and with a certain member ofthejet set. The best to you, Bob.

He has been teaching for frve years during which time he has completed his degree almost exclusively by evening and summer courses.

Mel's activities and ability indicate a great future. / Hill, Bernie SCIENCE - Brandon Inglis, Janet ARTS - Roblin Chemistry is Bernie's chosen field of endeavour. He is an avid curler and was a great asset to the Brandon University curling teams. His academic capa bilities will open up many opportunities in the future. Jan, a Sociology major, has shown her willingness to help people this year in the Book Store jungle. A girl who enjoys curling and singing, she also displays a keen, sarcastic wit. Her career plans, in keeping with her field, likely will be in personal relations. Hrynkiw, Donna SCIENCE - Brandon This enthusiastic Class of '69'er can usually be found somewhere in the H-hut. However, Donna does not let her conscientious attitude towards her studies interfere with extracurricular activities here and in Winnipeg. We are certain she will have a happy and successful future. Irvine, John ARTS - MacDonald Hrytsak, Audrey ARTS -Oakburn Could it be thirst for scientific knowledge or for H-hut coffee that lures this historian to the Zoology Department?

Though she appears reserved, Audrey has a fun-loving personality much appreciated by her many friends. We know she will be successful in the education field! ! Jardine, William ARTS - English Kinney, Douglas SCIENCE - Brookdale Bill's easy-going personality has made him a friend to all who know him. His love for an old time dance is equalled by name.

As well as being a proficient curler, she has developed an interest in international affairs during her years here.

Many people will think of her sparkly, teasing eyes and remember her as a girl who really did 'laugh till she cried'! Kling, Hedy SCIENCE - Beulah Keynes, Sharon ARTS - Brandon This rather shy member of our class often surprises us with unexpected humour at a party. Sharon's wardrobe testifies to her skill as a seamstress. She plans to take Education in Winnipeg next year and we wish her well in her future as an elementary school teacher. Hedy is a girl of diversified talents. She paints, plays badminton and volleyball and is an expert on horses, hops and H.R.'s. She has travelled to Europe twice and is trilingual (more or less).

Her interests in the social sciences and concern for people have enabled her to be hired by the Children's Aid Society, from which she hopes to continue for her Master's in Social Work. We wish her the best of everything in the future. Lisowski, Ken ARTS - Brandon Laverty, Julie ARTS - McMasterville, Quebec Julie has done a great deal for the University behind the scenes. This year's Homecoming Queen is Editor of the B.U.S.U. Memo, a willing helper for the Activities Committee and a well informed member of the student body. Her effervescent personality causes instant enthusiasm wherever she goes. Commonly known as Klu, Ken will graduate with an average befitting a law applicant. A part of the Cleat Lake crowd, Ken spends his summers lifeguarding. He is, as well, an avid curler and tennis player. The best to one of Class '69's friendliest members.

Magee, Doug ARTS - Brandon Doug has been a concerned student in the area of student affairs, attending the student meetings as much as the social functions. He is an enthusiastic skier and can always be found swapping stories abou t his favourite sport at a party.

The sparkler she wears indicates some of her more immediate postgraduate plans. We wish Joanne andJim the best in future plans. Inky, Mark ARTS Mazer, Ed ARTS - Brandon Inky's name was never more suitable than when he was B.U.S.U. Publicity Director, approving and signing posters. Two sources of enjoyment for this student are skiing and his sharp red Austin-Healy sports car. A Psychology major, Inky would like to take off from his studies to rravel. Ed's ability shone through as Treasurer of the B.U.S.U. this year. His interest in student affairs, his campus spirit and his personality have won him the respect of everyone who knows him. A true party-goer from "way-back", Ed is a real going concern. Law has taken his fancy, but Education may be lucky enough to have him next year. Marshall, Rick ARTS - Brandon Rick has the rare and fortunate com bin a tion of friendliness and ability. He worked hard during the past year as In ternal Vice-President of the B.U.S.U., and found time for supporting many social functions as well as devoting much of his leisure time to a special off-campus interest. Dry humour and determination, plus a rich source of true and lasting friends, will be counted among Rick's blessings throughout his life. McCartney, Murray ARTS - Minnedosa ,, ,. Martel, Roy SCIENCE - Winnipeg Roy is well-known and respected as Dean of second floor, Men's Residence. He is a great help at all activities for organizing and clean-up.

We wish this charming gentleman the very best in his career as officer in the Canadian Armed Forces.

Murray will doubtlessly be a success in any endeavour he chooses to undertake.

We have no doubt that Joe will succeed as a lawyer and we wish him the best that life has to offer.

Murray appears quiet, but anyone who knows him will agree that he is nothing less than a live wire.

A bass guitar around his neck, he has played for several musical groups during his stay at Brandon University, giving his time and energy for the enjoyment of others. Metcalfe, Ron SCIENCE - Brandon With his distinctive and easy manner, Ron comes to Zoology. Another of our energetic grads, he is often recognized giving his "sales pitch" down at Eaton's. The perfect example of our future white collar conservative, Brian although slightly absent-minded at times will undoubtedly prove to be a well-informed dentist. Interest in music has made him well-known as he proceeded through folk and rock groups. His ambition and well-rounded personality are a "winning" combination, in both senses of the word. Minish, Garth SCIENCE - Swan River Nadler, Jim SCIENCE - Brandon "Garsarser", with his hat and his zany wit, makes the Geology Department the lair of the chief "Bull-schist-er". Garth is destined for a "rocky" future as a Geologist and takes with him our best wishes. Jim is a very energetic and hardworking student. Any job he undertakes is well-done. If you think Maths majors do not have fun, just ask him. With his likeable personality and o pen mind, Jim will surely be successful. Nickel, Wayne ARTS - Brandon Norton, Jean ARTS - Strathclair Jean is one of the quieter members of our class but those who have had the opportunity to know her find her a valuable acquaintance. Her unlimited potential and sense of humour will make her a very popular teacher. We wish her all the best. Mosey, Nancy ARTS - Brandon A Latin scholarship student with an English major, Nancy's future plans include working with handicapped children. She would also like to travel. Whatever she will be doing, we are sure the fIrst thing will be to buy a car. Oh, those treacherous Wednesday nights! Over the past three years, Wayne has made many sincere friends with the University crowd. Because of his warm heart and kind attitude towards people, he fmds time for everyone regardless of the task involved. During past years, in his spare time, Wayne has helped out as a big brother at the Children's Aid Society. He plans to continue in this fIeld. We wish Wayne success and satisfaction in the career for which he is so well-suited. Novak, Arnold ARTS - Neepawa Oldcorn, Clarice ARTS - Rivers Even with an English major and a History minor, Arnold has found time during the past three years to act as "Mr. Projectionist" in showing most of the fllms on campus. Working at organizing Screen 16 and the annual Film Festival has also taken up much of his time, along with improving an already large record collection. In his planned career in teaching, Arnold should prove to be every bit a success. Clarice, both a wife and a teacher, is finishing her degree this year. Although she commutes everyday between Rivers and Brandon and has a busy home life, she does very well in her studies. A friendly person who is well-liked by her classmates, Clarice's future will surely be bright. Nylen,Reg SCIENCE - Erikson Pang, Peter SCIENCE - Mauritius Reg is unique on campus being the only Maths major with an English minor. It may be this strange curriculum that attracts him to both Arts and Science functions. He is also an enthusiastic '69'er. Reg's amiable character will ensure him of friends wherever he goes. Peter is a brilliant student and his conscientious study habits have rewarded him with a Maths scholarship to Edmonton for graduate studies. Known for his singing ability, this friendly student has entertained us at International Night and at the Residence Banquet. O'Brien, Garry MUSIC - Neepawa Garry is a quiet, hard-worker from Neepawa whose pianistic ability won him the gold medal for highest marks in Manitoba's performance diploma last year. He has been a consistent award winner in the Brandon Festival and plays the string bass in the Brandon University Chamber Orchestra. Garry plans to take Education or a Master's in piano. Paterson, Doug ARTS - Brandon Porter, J acquie ARTS - Weyburn Doug is one of our "spoken for" class mem bers but he always has a word for all the girls on campus. The prominent psychologist on this year's Bobcat Hockey Team, Doug's future will no doubt be as successful and rewarding as his activities on campus have been. Beneath Jacquie's poised and collected exterior, we fmd the enthusiasm to maintain the hectic position of Activities Chairman. Her open-mindedness, yet definite opinions have made our Grad year a fruitful one. It is not surprising that a person so capable of helping others would choose the field of psycho-therapy for future work. Potter, Carol ARTS - Brandon Paulson, Greg ARTS - Brandon We were happy to inherit Greg from the U. of M. for his last two years. Greg has been active on the Art's Council, as he was Senior Rep. His easy manner and enthusiasm for parties have made him lots of friends. His future is sure to be a happy one. Pierson, Cheryl ARTS-Eden Cheryl is a fun-loving, though conscientious student and one of B.U.'s few French majors. Her ardent interest in French led her to Montreal last summer where she studied that particular subject at McGill University. Cheryl is still uncertain about her plans for the immediate future, but they are sure to include a certain religion major. All our best to you, Cheryl! As a married member of our class, Carol has had to combine her studies with making a home - in Men's Residence at that! Wife of the Dean in those "boysterous" halls, "Mama Potter" as she is sometimes referred to by over 200 young men, has been known to mend the trousers of her foster sons, or to hanging up her washing in the infirmary, much to the dismay of a young artist who refers to that room as his studio. Carol's future plans include working in the field of Psychology, where her warm personality and outgoing manner will stand her in good stead. Price, Pat ARTS-Elgin Rampton, Janis ARTS Pat distinguished herself as a cheerleader during her ftrst two years at Brandon University. Serving as Social Convenor for the Arts Faculty and Secretary of the Activities Committee this year, she could be found rounding up volunteers. Pat is the proud owner of half a horse. A Psychology major, who is a frequent visitor to the Psychology Lab, she hopes to go on for her M.A. Serving as sports representative for the Arts Council, Jan was well-known on campus. A Psychology major, Jan spent the summer working at the University of Calgary. We are sure that she will be successful in her fu ture endeavours as she has been at Brandon University. Reid, Russ ARTS - Brandon Pringle, Jim ARTS - Sardis, B. C. Jim, who usually changes universities and his majors every year, decided to settle down this year, getting married and beco ming ac tive in university government. Hippy's resourcefulness and varied talents indicate a bright future for him. Probe, Linda ARTS-Weyburn The Zoology Department has not yet recovered from its sense of loss that this miss decided to concentrate on her Arts subjects. A friendly person with a delightful spontaneous giggle, Linda plans a wedding after graduation. Never excited, never sad, Russ is always good for a few laughs with the boys. A verteran of the Brandon University basketball Bobcats, Russ will have to give up basketball tem porarily if he follows his plan to travel and work in Europe after graduation. Rinn, Dave ARTS - Brandon Ross, Nyall MUSIC - Portage Adopt many tasks, from D]'ing to university affairs, Dave leaves behind a new innovation in the President's office - that of truthful concern for all students. His contributions to the institu tion will be long rem em bered. Nyall has been an all-round student on campus, and is especially remembered f or his performances in all the dramatic productions in the last four years. During his stay at Brandon, he has won much recognition for his diversifIed talents and received an award for his outstanding performance as Jonathan in "Oh Dad, Poor Dad". Upon graduation, Nyall plans to follow the field of drama at the University of Calgary. Samchuk, Ron SCIENCE - Brandon Ritchot, Madeleine ARTS - Silver Plains Sparkling blue eyes, and a friendly smile for all, Madeleine comes to us via St. Boniface College and the University of Manitoba. Though a new addition to our class, she can always be depended upon for enthusiastic support of class functions. Ron is a major in both Geology and Geography. His enthusiasm in his courses is no doubt influenced by his keen interest in world-wide communications on his short wave Rose, Lorna ARTS - Killarney This vivacious blonde hails from Killarney. With her warm personality and her quick wit, Lorna is a welcome addition to our class. Lorna plans to become a teacher, and we are sure her future students will fInd her as witty and fun-loving as we do. radio. Ron is uncertain about his plans for the future but we are all sure he will do well at whatever he chooses. Sankey, Pat ARTS - Brandon Scott, Allistair SCIENCE - Million Pat's literary talent as an English major was shown last year as she was Editor of Sickle 6. The secret of her mysterious trip into Winnipeg was revealed by the double sparkle in Pat's eyes and on her fmger. We wish her every happiness in the fu ture. Characterized by his reliability and willingness to pitch in, Allistair is interested in all campus activities, especially sports. He held a position on the Science Faculty executive, as well. Allistair plans to take Education next year. Sax burg, Marv ARTS - Brandon Scott, Richard SCIENCE - Brandon Marv (nicked named Marv Sportsburg) is aiming towards Grad school for Political Science. As a husband and father, he is a busy man playing football, announcing sports for CKX, and attending university. He hopes to continue in broadcasting and news editing. Richard is one of the quieter members of the Zoology Department. Recently married, Rick has been able to accept responsibilities of married life besides maintaining a good scholastic average. His amiable manner and determination are sure to lead him onward to success as a teacher. Schepp, Sandra SCIENCE - Brandon Sandi's rollicking sense of humour frequently lands her in a "ticklish" situation, but her ready wit usually gets her out of it. Without our littlest Zoologist, life in the H-hut might be saner but it sure would be dull. Sharratt, Jane ARTS-Ebor Skinner, Claudia ARTS - Virden Jane is an active participant in sports such as volleyball and horseback riding. Always eager tojoin in the fun, Jane is a welcome addition to our class. Best ofluck in your fu ture, Jane. She plans to go on to Grad. for geography. During Freshman year Claudia was in Brandon in body, but in Winnipeg in mind. So, last year she transferred into Winnipeg. This year she is in Brandon in body again, bu t her mind keeps wandering to Edmonton. Getting married this summer, should finally solve her problem. She hopes to work for the Social Welfare Department of Alberta in preparation for graduate work in Sociology. Congratulations and good luck in the future. Shaw, Nancy ARTS - Souris Nancy personifies her motto - "Speak when you have something worthwhile to contribute, otherwise remain silent." With a combination English-Psychology major, she keeps busy trying to separate her rats and puns. Nancy plays Varsity badminton and is an active member of I.V.C.F. Next year will see Nancy in either the teaching field or graduate schooL We wish her the best. Smith,Don ARTS - Brandon / Sinkinson, Tom ARTS - Brandon Tom has participated in many activities offered at Brandon University including volleyball and swimming. His friends appreciate his sense of humour and his interesting conversation. An Economics major, Tom will enter the field of Chartered Accountancy next year, with a Brandon flIm. Always ready with a warm smile and friendly hello, Don is a member of both the Varsity football and basketball teams as well as one of the newly married members of our class. During the second term, the long walk be tween his apartment and the cam pus has had telling effects on his studies and his health. Smith, Joyce ARTS - Souris Stefaniuk, Ad SCIENCE - Roblin An entrance scholarship winner for all three years, with a few secondary awards thrown in, Joyce is one of the outstanding students of the class. She is a Geography major who is currently doing research into a farm near Nesbitt. The combination of warm friendliness, wit and intelligence is part of her potential to do anything she desires. Ad is a very ambitious girl who switched from a Maths major to Chemistry. Needless to' say with courses like that, she spends the greater part of her time studying. A very friendly person, Ad is known as one who always gives her honest opinion. This member of the class of '69 is hoping to frnd employment in either Saskatchewan or Toronto. Suleiman,Abdul SCIENCE - Tanzania Sobol, Sandra ARTS - Brandon Sandi certainly livens up the halls of the Arts building with her laughter and lively chatter. A Sociology major she is not certain of her future plans but knows definitely that she will be leaving Brandon. "I'll work - I'll do anything - but I won't look at another book." Sparling, Dennis ARTS - Oak River Commonly known as "Sparky", Dennis is a conscientious Geography major who still finds time to employ his talents as an outstanding goalie of the J. U. The fact that he was voted "Galloping Gourment" of Silverbirch Drive only adds to our argument that Dennis will be a success in his chosen profession. Abdul is a charming "Tanzanian devil" who has a marvellous sense of humour, likes people, and is very interested in University events. His political ideas and his stories of life in Tanzania have added much to the Class of '69 get-togethers. Abdul is a Zoology major who enjoys photography, soccer and ping-pong. If he continues to attack his work with the zest and enthusiasm he has shown here, he will surely be successful. Sumpton, Donna-Lynn SCIENCE - Brandon Taylor, Wilf ARTS - Rivers Donna Lynn is one of the more enthusiastic members of the Class of '69. She is always willing to lend a helping hand to inform us of Grad activities. Although she is busy preparing for her August wedding, Donna Lynn still has time to concentrate on her major, Geology. Wilf is well-known for his abilities to play hockey and to study Geography with his eyes closed. His immediate future is still undecided, but his easygoing manner guarantees him a pleasing long-range forecast. Sutcliffe, Harry ARTS - Brandon Recipe for an ideal Class of '6ger - to a railroader of Dauphin vintage, add six or seven Economics courses and sprinkle liberally with various other Arts courses. Blend in a bone-crunching middle guard (garnished with a football captaincy), and several jiggers (er, measures) of hockey, Viking Boot, races etc. Smooth over with a knock-out of a wife and an one month, twenty-five pound bundle of potential lineblocker. Add a dash of "Four Aces"; shake well and send to Grad school. (Buddy, if this doesn't give you a Sutcliffe Delight, nothing will! ) Thiel, Monica SCIENCE - Portage Taylor, Bruce SCIENCE - Brandon A well-liked Zoology major and athlete who co-captained the football team and played outstanding defence on the Bobcats Hockey Team. Bruce's ambition is dentistry, and judging from his personality, he will no doubt have an excellent chair-side manner. / \ f \ ,/\ I { do' I Monica is a very studious person who spends much of her time either working as librarian in the Education building, or studying Physics and Chemistry in the Arts building library. Her immediate plans include a wedding this summer. Thompson, Gerry ARTS - Melita Turnbull, Andrew ARTS - Barrie, Ontario A charter member in good standing of the "economic elite", this Melita marauder contributes his fair share to the antics at any party. An avid supporter of Princh's J.V.'s, Gerry celebrated his graduation from the team by decorating his right ankle with a cast for two months this winter. Hailing from Barrie, Ontario, Andy joined our ranks this year. Besides his regular work load, photography and occasional Sunday sermons keep him busy. A subtle sense of humour combined with a willingness to speak his mind make discussions with Andy a real experience. We are sure that he will find his chosen profession of the ministry very fulfilling. Toderian, Merv SCIENCE - Gilbert Plains Merv is a Science man from the word go, however his scientific studies have not deterred his romantic tendencies as Merv has a lonely wife. Those who know him are well aware that Merv possesses a unique sense of humour. His persistence and the stability that marriage brings him will ensure him every success in the future. Turner, Patrick SCIENCE - Wellwood Tsukamoto, Susan ARTS - Brandon Quiet, conscientious and friendly, Susan is "successful student and artistic homemaker. She is a History major who enjoys travel and reading and who plans to return to teaching. The handyman of five Silver Birch, Pat also shows his precision-like work on the broom ball ice. He is a very conscientious Zoology major but still fin ds time to support all class functions. A newly engaged member of our class, we wish Pat the best in the future. Twilley, Sharon ARTS - Swan River Wallace, Brian ARTS - Cartwright Recipient of numerous scholarships, including tuition for three years and the President's scholarship in second year Arts, Sharon is defInitely on her way to success. Next year will likely fmd her involved in Graduate school Psychology, busily analyzing her professors. Best of luck in the future, Sharon. To Brian, being a student comes fIrst and parties come second. However he is one of our class members who is always ready to lend a hand, and with his wit and charm, he is a popular figure at class parties. As one of our budding geographers, Brian should go far. Valcourt, Leo ARTS - Ste. Rose du Lac Leo is one of more studious English majors. He takes time out from his studies to participate in curling. If Leo puts as much effort into his chosen vocation as he does into his academic work, his future is assured. We all wish Leo the best of luck after graduation. Watson,Janis ARTS - Gladstone Waldron, Mary Anne ARTS - Brandon An English major, Mary Anne has excelled scholastically while attending Brandon University. At first she considered the bus trips back and forth to visit her parents in Saskatchewan a disadvantage, bu t later the trips proved more enjoyable. At the present time her future plans include graduate work. \. 1\ // Janis's quiet humour and genuine warmth have proven invaluable to her many friends at Brandon University. She is a history major who is eyeing a career in Library Science. We wish her the best in whatever she decides to do. Watt, Vern SCIENCE - Reston Wolfe, Warren SCIENCE - Brandon Vern, sometimes unknown to classmates and professors, is a major in Zoology. He is seldom seen around the campus, but generally attends most university functions. Vern's future intentions are not yet decided, but he hopes to travel for a year before deciding upon a profession. Good luck, Vern! Warren entered Brandon University receiving an Entrance scholarship which he maintained for the three years. In 1967, he won the Public Speaking Trophy for the Science Faculty. He was also married in this year. In 196 ,he received the Doig's Scholarship for Mathematics. His future plans include a pre-Masters program in Mathematics. Woodward,]ack SCIENCE - Brandon Way, Rick SCIENCE - The Pas Rick, a Maths major and Bev minor, is a quiet sort of guy until after a rousing afternoon in the Brandon House. Being an easy person to get along with, Rick has made many good friends on campus and the future holds many open doors for him.

As with all science men, Brent loves any party, and is adept at growing a good beard. Best ofluck in dentistry, Brent. ] ack is another of the married members of the Grad Class. A mathematician and a philosopher, he also played a prominent role in the Drama Club; nevertheless, ] ack still fmds time to devote to his favourite sport, scuba diving. Best Ofluck in the future,]ack! Wregget, Harvey SCIENCE - Brandon Zawadsky, Larry ARTS - Brandon A Physics major, ski enthusiast and pilot, Harv has an eye for sharp women which rounds off his attribu tes quite nicely. Having joined R.O.T.P. just recently, the future sees Harv as either a CF-I04 pilot or a disc jockey. Larry is one of the married members of our class who is also teaching in a Brandon school. After taking Education lA, Larry began working toward his degree by taking extension courses while teaching.

With this in mind, we gladly cry Our voices loud in chorus. Hail our hallowed halls offame, For with the knowledge we have found And by the friendships we have gained We will face a world of change. As we go our separate ways The trials of this life we face But with God's help and what we've learned, We hope to fmd our places. -, ".:.: 45 Class of '69 CLASS HISTORY '69's Freshie Queen The Class of '69 was the first class to graduate under the Faculty System, therefore we did not really get together as a class until September, 1968. Our flIst class meeting was a roaring success and was followed by a weiner roast at Dave Rinn's farm. Our executive consisted of Mike Quinn - President; Marion Perkin Secretary-Treasurer; Brenda Malyon and Pete Hunter Social Convenors; and Marv Tyler was elected Honourary President. October we celebrated with a Sports Day. Beer cans make good bases when you are playing ball. October also saw Julie Laverty crowned Homecoming Queen. Our notorious Fowl Supper was on November ninth. Rapid City will never be the same; one hundred people in a fourteen-seat pub; unorthodox souvenirs including a girdle from someone's clothesline: and whoever heard of a bus being raided, anyway? ? '69's Freshie King Remember our fIrst year cheerleaders 46 Class President '69 Honourary President Class of'69 By comparison, the dance at Basswood was quiet. In December there was a Grad class dance at Forester's Hall. The Barn Dance in February was held at the Elk's Hall and was thoroughly enjoyed despite complaints about the dry atmosphere. The Baccalaureate Service was a distinct contrast to our usual gatherings. The beauty and solemnity of the service and the words of the minister's message will never be forgotten. Speaking of contrast, Brandon pubs will never forget the words of our unofficial class song, "Sweet Brandon University". The party during Grad Week hosted by the Tylers was one of the most successful gatherings of the Class of '69. The Graduation banquet and dance, after endless meetings and discussions, turned out to be a gala affair. After a last-minute mix-up, the Armories was the location of our all-night bash after the formal dance. It was the safest, most indestructible place we could find, next to the gaol. About fifty enthusiastic class members struggled into the Grad breakfast after lasting all night B.U.S.U. President '68 B.U.S.U. President '69 47 at the party. Both Residence deans were serenaded with Reveille (accompaniment willingly provided courtesy of George Martin and his trumpet) at 7: 00 a.m.! The Class of '69 has worked hard and played hard during the year. Most of all we will remember our fellow '6gers, those great kids with whom we formed such fast friendships and shared such memorable experiences. "DON'T YOU KNOCK IT COME AND SOCK IT TO THE CLASS OF '69" An institution in himself '67 - '68 - '69 Our Big Bash '. 48 President's Message John E. Robbins This year's graduating class will be the last that studied in Brandon College, and is in a position to realize the range and speed of changes that have been taking place on campus. When you ask yourselves whether they are for the better, what is your answer? Change to be helpful must be directed toward long-term con'structive goals. Change for the sake of change is not good enough. To be constructive it has to be rooted in an understanding of the past as well as the present. To help achieve an understanding of the past, the University is publishing this year a book-length history of Brandon College, 1899-1967. I hope many of you will read it and get the feel of the fabric out of which your alma mater has been woven. John E. Robbins President. 50 BUSU President's Message "THE PHENOMENA OF THE FEW" During our term of office, members of the student union Executive and Council have come to grips with a number of contradictions inherent in the structure and function of our University. We have adopted many of our policies, such as student representation on Senate, to give students an even greater opportunity to share the responsibility for participation in the decision-making process of the University. Political, economic and social interests bear on this institution and bring about the contradictions inherent in the University structure. The function of the University in many areas often becomes pre-determined within the limitations that the structure imposes. The idealism of a few members of the faculty, Administration and student body who come to grips with issues as they arise in the context of societal problems is our only hope for the future. It is a challenge to the educational process to ensure the strength of minority opinion. The phenomena of the few who openly challenge or reject the values of any institution within society will likely never be fully understood or appreciated. Martin Duberman, a noted American playwright, biographer and professor of History at Princeton University, writing in the November 1968 edition of Atlantic ended an article about the frustrations, alienation and radicalism of students with this conclusion. "I doubt if we have ever had a generation - or at least a minority of one - that has engaged itself so earnestly on the side of principled action, that valued people so dearly and possessions so little, that cared enough about our country to jeopardize their own careers within it, that wanted so desperately to lead open, honest lives and to have institutions and a society that would make such lives possible. It is a generation for which we should be immensely proud. Instead, we tell them that they are frenzied children; that we will try to be patient with them and that they should not push us too far; that they too in time will grow to understand the 'real' ways of the world. To say that this is condescension or blindness on the part of the older generation is a pity does not fit the dimensions of the case. It is a crime." My congratulations and sincere best wishes to the Graduating Class of '69. All of you have contributed, often in a very personal way, to the tradition and growth of this institution both academically in many other spheres of endeavour. I hope you share my feelings that the years spent at this University will assist you in making your life what you want it to be. David Rinn David J.

An institution in which all members of the university community - students, faculty, and administrators share in the decision-making processes. With all members of the university community working together, Brandon University can fulfill its role as an agent of social change. It will be an institution which will be critical of society but also offer constructive alternatives. It will educate students who recognize the contradictions of our modern society, and strive to achieve fundamental change. This year has been enigmatic. It has been the partial politicizing of the student body but the Students' Council has delved into matters which were previously foreign to Brandon University. This has meant that some aspects of the students' services have been neglected. But this, it seems, can be easily rectified. With this in mind a unified student body can help Western Manitoba to progress at a greater rate than is now evident. To all those graduating students, I hope they will remember Western Manitoba and Brandon University in fmancial and future teaching support. Fraternally, Jim Pringle 66 Oh! Hell! We're swell, You bet! We're set, Oh yes, God bless A-R-T-S! Arts. 67 A R T S 68 Science Stick's Message The sands of time rushed through the hourglass this year for many at B. U. and the year now draws to a close. As the graduates leave these hallowed halls, they take with them many memories and many friends; both of which will probably remain with them for the rest of their lives. I sincerely hope for all, that these years have been the best ever. GOOD LUCK GRADS! For the undergrads, I wish them luck in the coming year and it has been great helping the faculty of Science. Together with the professors in our faculty we have been able to make it the strongest both academically and socially. These years are the best you will ever have, so they tell me, but they are only what you make them. GOOD LUCK AND "KEEP THE FAITH, BABE." CHRIS SPEELMAN 69 rACUlTY . SEIENCE OF' '. Hot damn! Holy Hell! Have you heard the Science Yell? We want, God knows, More beer! Less clothes! S-C-I-E-N-C-E. Science! 70 Music Stick's Message And steadfast as Keats's Eremite, Not even stooping from its sphere, It asks a little of us here. It asks of us a certain height, So when at times the mob is swayed To carry praise or blame too far, We may take something like a star To stay our minds on and be staid." Robert Frost TAKE SOMETHING LIKE A STAR Sincere best wishes to our Music graduates for their happiness in their endeavours and work in new environments.

W u s I c 74 Education Stick's Message How much better it is to get wisdom rather than gold, and to acquire understanding rather than silver! During the past year such was the desire of students at B.U. and notably in the Faculty of Education. We have made progress in making the university a more meaningful part of the educational process. Changes in courses, greater contact with professional people, a broader knowledge and understanding of the world at large, and student representation on the Senate, regardless of numberj have merged to create an atmosphere of greater educational learning and yearning. Students are highly critical and analytical of all that revolves around them. This is an intense desire of many. However, we must remember that criticism must be constructive and not destructive, if we are to achieve goals which we establish. May Tennyson's words "To seek, to fmd, and not to yield", carryon in future years. It has been a pleasure working with the whole Education Faculty - students and professors alike - whether it be in the Chorale, in Drama, in the Council, in numerous committees, and also in representing you on the B.U.S.U. Council. Many students have contributed their share in making this a worthwhile year. We must also not forget the valuable experience gained from student teaching - a basic foundation to a profession in which many of us will share and shoulder the responsibilities until our dying days. Unfortunate indeed it is that many will leave the teaching profession to embark on another field of endeavours. May I extend my sincerest best wishes to all the Education Graduates and Undergraduates in all their future undertakings. To those leaving, remember not, "what your profession can do for you, but what you can do for your profession". We should all be proud of B.U. and may the word "education" remind you of the stepping stone to greater academic, social, and spiritual aspirations and achievements.

Both coaches feel quite optirnisitic about next year's prospects since our players have obtained more experience on the field. 81 Foot BACK ROW: Mel Jesson, Reg Knourek, John Graham, Bruce Rodenbush, Dave Bauman, Julien Hoyak, George Kunyckyj, Hannah, Trainer; Maurice Lang, Lome Lagimodiere, Boyd Van ROW: Dr. Hunter, Wayne McLennan, Dennis Fenton, Bruce Wilton, Mr. Steeves, Coach.

MISSING: Darlene Yaworski. Once again our girls places second in the M.S.C.e. tournament, beating the M.l. T. and M. V.C. and losing to the University of Winnipeg Wesmenettes. As with most of the competitions, this one was a double round robbin, played half in Winnipeg and half in Brandon. In February, our volleyballers flew to Vancouver for the w.e. LA.A. tournament. Although they won a few games there, they could not succeed in winning any matches and consequently placed last. Better luck next year girls.

On its bid for the M.S.C.C. Trophy, our team lost the first game 34-31 against University of Winnipeg and won the second 35-32 causing a play-off game. Both teams agreed that when they met in Calgary for the W.C.I.A.A. Tournament, that that game would be the deciding one. On the course of this tournament, Brandon beat Winnipeg and consequently became M.S.C.C. champs once again. Since all but three girls will be back next year, their coach, Mike Spack, has high hopes for next year's team. Since our men's teams are called "BOBCATS", our ladies' teams are now referred to as the "BOBBIES"! ............ Varsity Basketball BACK ROW: Paul McGregor, Russ Reid, Blake Simcow, Larry Rodenbush, Jim Stewart, Ross Brownlee. FRONT ROW: Steve Holden, Mel Harvey, Dave Bauman, Captain; Lome Lagimodiere, Moe McMillan. INSERT: Coach Howard. MISSING: Doug Ross, Clark Fraser, Manager. With the addition of Coach Howard to B. U. this year, our Varsity Basketball team had a very successful year. We won eleven and lost eleven games averaging 77.8 points per game and allowing 77.4 points per game to our opponents. Our leading scorers were Dave Bauman (24.3 p.p.g.), Mel Harvey and Blake Semcow. Dave Bauman also set four other recores - 2 in scoring and 2 in re bounding. The Season's highlights were a 82-69 win over Williston, N.D.; this was the fIrst time we had ever defeated an American team; and 102-53 victory over Regina Bible College; this was the fIrst time we broke 100 points. Coach Howard is busy recruiting for next year's team so from now on THE TEAM will be the one to watch progress. J. V. Basketball STANDING: Wayne McLennan, Paul McGregor, Robin Carter, Mike Weiss, Stu Farnell, Coach. KNEELING: Steve Holden, Don Smith, Lome Lagimodiece. MISSING: Larry Rodenbush, Bill Congdon. The Junior Varsity Basketball team came into existence only this year. The purpose of this team is to help build high school calibre players into university competition calibre players. Our Junior Varsity team practised with the Varsity team 4-5 times a week and so had coaching by both Stu Farnell and Coach Howard. Their season record was 10 wins and 1 loss against local high schools. They also encountered 2 other losses - one in Lethbridge, Alberta and the other at the hands of a Winnipeg squad. Top scorers were Larry Rodenbusch, Paul McGregor, and Steve Holden, averaging 8-10 points per games. For each Varsity game, two Junior Varsity players were promoted to the Varsity squad and particular mention must go to Paul McGregor for his efforts here. 87 Varsity Hockey BACK ROW: Ken Dando, Manager; Mark Kennedy, Tom Mitchell, Mel Jesson, Gene Collins. MIDDLE ROW: John Findlay, Rick Bunn, Keith Angus, Lawrence Bertram, Bob Gladstone, John Birnie. FRONT ROW: Jim Mann, Coach; Bruce Bonk, Jim Wilton, John Graham, Ralph Gardiner, Bruce Taylor, Doc Hannah, Trainer. Trips to Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan and Montreal highlighted the most successful year ever for the Bobcats. The Hockey team, posting the best win-loss record on campus for Varsity sport, is presently playing in the finals of the South West Hockey League against McAuley Tigers of the North Division. The Bobcats, after defeating Waskada Comets, league champs for the past three years, are the South Division champions. Another highlight of the season was a close three to two loss to the Brandon Wheat Kings of the Western Canada Hockey League on Charlie McKenzie Night. Individual honours won this season include All-Star goalie and defencemanJ ohn Findlay and Jim Wilton at the Sault Ste. Marie Tourney as well as All-Star placings on the South West League South Division first team by John Findlay andJim Wilton and second team Mark Kennedy. Top scorers for the team this year include second year man Ralph Gardiner and freshman Bruce Bonk. Next year the Bobcats will be participating in the W.C.LA.A. including University of British Columbia, University of Alberta, University of Winnipeg and University of Manitoba. J. V. Hockey THE CASE OF THE UNSNAPPED PHOTO! TEAM MEMBERS: Daryl Beamish, Guy Kling, Bob Chetyrbok, Brian Frazer, Doug Greves, Wendell Keeler, Jim Kirkup, Al McAulay, Wayne McGill, Wayne Palidwar, Doug Paterson, Wilf Taylor and Dennis Sparling, Goalie; Coach "Punch" Vriese. In their second year in operation, the Junior Varsity Bobcat team greatly improved its record. The team played 18 games during the regular schedule in the Commercial Hockey League. The Junior Bobcats fInished in fourth place in the ten team league. During the season they won 8, lost 7, and tied 3 games. In the play-offs, they won their quarter-final and then met the league champions in the semi-fmals to whom they bowed in the final game after a hard-fought series. Top scorers were Brian Frazer and Bob Chetyrbok. Ladies' Curling Bonnie Keay, Skip; Arlene Wallace, Third; Maralice Taylor, Second;]oan Billington, Lead. The Women's Curling team this year enjoyed a successful season. In the M.S.C.C. tournament, they won five out of six games and consequently tied the University of Winnipeg for first place. This forced a play-off game from which Brandon emerged victorious. At the W.C.I.A.A. tournament in Vancouver, our girls came through with the commendable record of 5 wins, 3 losses, to tie for third place. In four local bonspiels, Skip Bonnie Keay led her rink to 16 wins and 9 losses for a total season record of 20-11. The team will miss veteran Bonnie next year, but the experience the others gained promises future successful seasons. 90 Men's Curling STANDING: Rae Csversko, Skip; Bernie Hill, Third. KNEELING: Ed Zimmer, Second; Ray Whaley, Lead. In the M.S.C.C. competition against teams from the University of Winnipeg, M.LT., and M.V.C., our team won two of its three games in the Brandon round. However, returning to Winnipeg after a two week lay-off, they were not as sharp and lost the three. In Saskatoon, while the record was no better (one win and six losses), the play was much better and they enjoyed close, down to the wire games in three of the six losses. Some of the competing rinks were from Victoria, Edmonton, Calgary, Saskatoon, Winnipeg, and Regina. Chastened, but one year older in curling experience our Varsity players look forward to better things in the year to come. 91 Badminton LEFT TO RIGHT: Joyce Armstrong, Bill Currie, Gaylene Archibald, Dewar McKinnon, Pat Davies, Don Lindenberg, Jacquie Porter. MISSING: Chuck Game. This year the Badminton team placed second in the M.S.C.C. tournament behind University of Winnipeg and ahead of M.LT. The girls did well in this tournament - Gaylene and Jacquie tied in the women's doubles with University of Winnipeg, while Pat came first in the singles event. Our mixed team - Don and Joyce won one of four matches, while the rest of our men were not as successful. At Calgary for the W.C.LA.A. Tournament, Gaylene won one and Pat won three in the ladies' singles events, and in the ladies' doubles Pat andJoyce added two more points to Brandon's total. 92 Broomball LEFT TO RIGHT: Wayne McLeod, Bill Patter, Coach; Hellar Nakonechny, Jim Mullet, Wayne McLennan, Jack Welsh, Rick Borotsik, Barry Eyjolfson, Perry Kalynuk. MISSING: Reg Knourek, Dennis Shindle, Wayne Ford, Norm Joss, Mike Yaholnitsky, Jim Stewart. The season opened for the broomball squad inJanuary. With the completion of regular season play in the 14 team commercial league, the team compiled 14 points on 5 wins, 4 ties, and 4 losses, to obtain the fourth play-off position. High scorers for the team in regular season play were Reg Knourek and Rick Borotsik with 6 and 4 goals respectively. In the Western Canada Broomball Tournament held in Brandon the Blue and Golds were forced out of contention for the prize money with two wins and two losses (one of which went into overtime). Being a fairly new team, little spectator support has been given our Broomball squad; they hope this will change next year. The Letterman's Club This year on campus saw the formation of an entirely new club - the Bobcat Letterman's Club. In a tentative constitution, the objects of the club are: a) To further the interests of Men's Athletics in general and to promote a spirit of friendship and unity among all members of the various Varsity teams both past and present. b) To promote the highest sportsmanship in all athletics. c) To interest a greater number of students in athletics. d) To take an active interest in public and high school athletics and to interest students in attending Brandon University. e) To maintain a high standard of awards and to see that major award winners receive proper recognition. f) To interest the Alumni and Faculty in athletics. The members of the club will include all members and managers of Varsity teams in the three major sportsfootball, hockey, and basketball. Also, any student or team at B. U. excelling in a sport to a degree recognizable by two-thirds of the club's members may join. This year's excutive: Boyd Van Agglon, President; Jim Walker, Secretary; Ralph Gardiner, Vice-President; and Ken Dando, Treasurer. 93 Fencing LEFT TO RIGHT: Mel Armstrong, Murray Simpson, Coach; Eric Unger, Linda Chrun. MISSING: Lauri Pratt. With the absence of Mr. Haraszthy this year, not too much was done in the line of fencing at B. U. A few, however, came out regularly to learn the art of fencing under Mr. Simson's direction. Entering only one tournament with five other teams, Brandon tied for third place with Mel Armstrong coming third in the foil event and Murray Simson third in the epee. Laurie Pratt, also, took a fourth and a fifth place in these events in a field of nine entrants. Next year, Brandon plays host to the W.C.LA.A. Fencing TournaJt!.ent, and with Mr. Haraszthy back again Brandon will be a strong contender for the trophy. f Awards 94 Intramural Awards Varsity Awards WOMAN'S HIGH - LINDA PETRIE POINT TOTAL JOAN ARMSTRONG MEN'S HIGH - BARRY MINISH POINT TOTAL SPARKS CUP (awarded to the faculty with the highest points) - SCIENCE CURLING - KEN DANDO,JIM KIRKUP, BETTY PERREAULT, KEN GRAMBO FOOTBALL - MOST VALUABLE PLAYER - LEN SITTER - MOST IMPROVED PLAYER - MEL JESSON MEN'S BASKETBALL - MOST VALUABLE PLAYER - DAVE BAUMAN - MOST IMPROVED PLAYER - BLAKE SIMCOW WOMAN'S BASKETBALL - MOST VALUABLE PLAYER - KAREN ANDERSON HOCKEY - MOST VALUABLE PLAYER - JOHN FINDLAY - MOST IMPROVED PLAYER - RICK BUNN ...Join the" IN" Crowd Be a Bobcat Booster ------1 C Gym Gems Gee, Gary, isn't our team great?
