Graduates s

Grade Thirteen is a special year, students are given

more responsibility and respect.

The “Thirteens” however, in return must perform

like mature, disciplined adults. This transition is not

easy; just look at any one of the two hundred and

fifty ravaged “thirteens” during first term.

Students in their final year find the need to participate

more in extracurricular activities, including:

interschool sports, school clubs and employment.

These non-academic activities provide an important

outlet for the tensions that rise from intense school

work.

In grade Thirteen, more so than in any other

grade, students unite, past differences are forgotten,

one has mellowed.

It is strange to think what graduating means.

Everyone splits off in different directions, to play in

an enormous game of hide-and-go-seek, perhaps?

In realization, Grade Thirteen is a very special

experience. It is the last moment, when students of

phenomenally different interests and futures are

together.

However large the explosion that separates them,

the bonds they have formed, will survive all!

School Spirit

School Spirit Week

Sept. 27 to Oct. 1

Sept. 27 to Oct. 1 1976, was a special, sort of crazy

week. A week that had Jarvisites both showing and

celebrating their school spirit. During this week each

grade on different days would dress in outfits that

best represented themselves. On Monday the grade

13’s dressed up as little kids, and dress up they did!

Wearing striped toe socks and freckles they paraded

through the halls. The next day the grade 12’s dressed

as clowns, this again received wide response. The

1 l’s, Joni Barootes at the head, came in their stylish

bed-wear. Among the grade 10’s wearing sports

costumes, Andrea McClintock, dressed as an athletes

foot, was one of the most outstanding.

Sept. 30, we all got into the school spirit and had a

football pep rally. Everyone including the teachers,

(who gave an outstanding victory cheer) went a little

nuts. Mr. Cooper was the first to get fired at when he

was told to stand up while speaking from the

podium. Another short fellow, Mr. Marv Pearl, did

his own razzing by telling the astonished Mr. Bastedo

that he used too much time introducing his tennis

team. The show ended with the introduction of the

football team, by coach “Bulldog” Shepherd.

“Legs” Callidine and Mr. “Santa” Shanahan did

the Alabama with style and grace as did Big Karl,

Blake Martin, Fred Maese and Peter (Moose) Watt.

Other acts were John Gruetzner who lost his grace

when coming in, followed by cheers for Graham

Heel (mostly from sister Paula).

The niners topped off the week by showing their

enthusiasm through their costumes and turnout. The

teachers, who on the same day, wore hats and dark

sunglasses were great! The grand finale was a record

dance in the boy’s gym.

The School Spirit committee did a great job in

giving us a week to remember. Thanks!

1 Commencement

"Back to Launch"

Remember

My Youth Passed Quickly.

As I sauntered about the streets attempting to

relieve the babalities of my present life, I came upon

a part of myself I once knew yet had left to sink

amidst growth and sophistication. My youth,

teachers, friends and gossip. The “Institute”, as

“we” had called it, stood before me no longer

ringing with authority, only another building on a

corner in a city.

I felt the urge to enter, perhaps just to touch the

walls and to feel myself as I was, or simply for

curiosity and self-satisfaction. A group of students

had congregated at the door. As I joined them my

securities were captured and I found myself climbing

the sweeping marble steps and entering the

auditorium that I had once been so familiar with,

fondled the programme that had been thrust into my

hands and made my way to the back as I did not fit in

with anxious parents and the talkative, high-spirited

students. A play was about to begin entitled BACK

TO LAUNCH — obviously Theatre of the Absurd.

The lights dimmed and the audience was silenced

as the processional music began. A group of

distinguished ladies and gentlemen in assorted attire

made their way onto the stage. A highly regarded

woman presented herself to the audience speaking in

a soft, formal tone, filling the room with advice for

all. I quickly identified her as Miss Shilton, the

principal speaker. As one of the students added a bit

of comic relief to the formality I noted a hint of irony

in her message. Among the honoured guests, Mrs.

Kilbourn offered a rare and touching address. She

spoke optimistically of the future of those who were

to enter a world removed from the cosy atmosphere

they had enjoyed. I longed for that advice to be mine.

From that point on Gifts, handshakes and hints of

future plans dominated the plot. I thought back to

the irony I had noted earlier and chuckled. The play

became totally realistic as I began to identify with the

absurdity. Two leading characters played important

roles in the latter part of the play. Glancing at the

programme my eye caught their names: Mira Acs and

Ernest Belyea, each receiving three different awards

and totalling the honour list to seventy-one. My

thoughts raced back to the importance of being

earnest as he gave his Valedictory Address.

The denoument was far more significant than most

people realized; I had found that part of myself and

intended to keep it.

I had remembered.

Basketball I

Tournament

Jarvis Invitational Basketball

Tournament

It was a cold Janury 14th, but somehow everyone

ignored the weather and concentrated on the 11th

Annual Jarvis Invitational Basketball tournament

featuring the Lutheran Crusaders from Long Island,

N.Y. Word was travelling around the school that

they had a centre who was 6’11”, 240 lbs. I even

teard one person mention 280 lbs! Whatever the size,

ie feeling was that Lutheran would utterly destroy

ieir opponents as thay had done two years ago.

Lutheran’s first assault came on to the hands of

No. 2 ranked St. Mike’s. This game was a complete

mismatch. St. Mike’s didn’t have the lead at any time

during the contest. Wayne McCoy (No. 44), their

huge All-American centre, played a strong game,

putting in 25 points, while Gary Cheslock (No. 42),

another 6’10” forward, played an excellent game.

Steven Brawley (No. 10) had to be the fastest and

quickest player on the court. His outside shooting,

jumping and faking shots were a delight to spectators

and photographers alike. The game ended with a

score of 99-65 for Lutheran.

Game No. 2 on Saturday was billed as the Ontario

— New York State championship. Lutheran would

play No. 3 — ranked Lord Simcoe from St.

Catherine’s. Both teams were big and undefeated.

But could Lord Simcoe stand up to Lutheran’s

pulverizing pace? At the end of the first quarter.

Lord Simcoe seemed to be holding their own, since

only 2 points separated the teams. But things

changed quickly. Lord Simcoe’s shooting game

deteriorated as time went on and Lutheran began

using their speed and muscle to pull away from Lord

Simcoe. The final score was a 108-59 trouncing. Thus

Lutheran won the so-called Ontario-New York

championship.

Lutheran possessed speed, muscle and a strong

bench. They showed us how basketball can be played

when the talent is available. Let’s see them back

again soon.

Blood Donor Clinic

The Blood Donor Clinic Accomplishment.

To donate blood is to give a fine gift, but this year, the

students of Jarvis did more than give the Red Cross such a

gift; surely we assisted in saving a great many lives.

At our clinic, a long line stood by the girls’ Gym from

one-thirty to about five o’clock, waiting to give blood.

This line included such popular figures as Mr. Shepherd,

Mrs. Harrison, Mr. Pelz, Mr. Basiuk, and seen also were

members of the caretaking and office staffs, and many

students.

From the finding of a bed to fit Mr. Terpstra’s length to

the “hushing” of comments about “ol* Shepherd”, the

Red Cross nurses and volunteers did a better than average

job of dealing with such J.C.l. problems. The nurses really

made one feel good for having donated; they told you how

good you looked, and all the time keeping your eyes away

from that little bag beside you filling up with your lifesaving

blood.

Afterwards, we were given an ample supply of cookies,

drinks, donation buttons and stickers. In such pleasant

ways their true appreciation was shown for the old Jarvis

spirit.

Another great thing was the presence of an audience

standing at the side doors saying, but not in so many

words, how they wished they could give but were not

permitted to do so because they were not old enough. The

required age was 17 with parents’ permission, and 18 years

and up without. This just shows the Red Cross that they

can depend on us and upon future donors.

Jarvis! Quite a fair number of people should be thankful

to you and you can be sure that the Red Cross is extremely

grateful too.

The Jarvis Girls’ Athletic Council delivered

triumphant “Red, White and Blue” Review.

To the concerned teacher, introverted student,

anxious parent and absorbed intellectual the

“Revue” was a long awaited tremor from Jarvis’s

underground culture scene.

To the stereotypeless it was a warm and vibrant

experience. Where, familiar faces revealed them-

selves in a new demensionality.

In all, the auditorium echoed many applause and

cheers from an alert and appreciative audience.

Formal

This year’s Jarvis Formal can be described in many

words, but three state it perfectly ... an evening of i£

EXTRAVAGANCE, PRIDE and FUN.

It was the first year for Jarvisites to have their

Formal at the distinguished Royal York Hotel. As

well, it was the first time that dinner was included

with the dance. The Royal York’s Canadian Room

served a reasonable meal considering the cost.

The night’s extravagance was seen in normally

denim dressed students coming out in beautiful, long

dresses and sauve dinner jackets. One of the most

elegant sights of the evening was to see couples

driving to the door in cars ranging from Rollsi

Royces, Cadillacs and Airport Limos, to taxis and

! motorcycles.

There was a great feeling of pride and respect

shown throughout the evening, as Jarvis students and

1 teachers talked and dined together in the beautiful

hotel. In fact, the quality of our Formal was

i

recognized by a full-page article appearing in the

Toronto Sun the following Monday morning.

Ellis McClintock played enough songs for us to

dance to — the floor is probably still being refinished

and worked on.

I

Summing up, Jarvis students displayed to one and

all, including other guests at the Royal York, their

best qualities as high school students of today. This

particular evening was probably the most magical

night of the year for most of those who attended . . .

the mystique in the air will be remembered even after

this Formal has long become a “thing of the past”.



Arsnic and Old Lace

In normal circumstances, I keep to the shadows

behind my camera. On this occasion, however, I

must leave my forte as a photographer and do a brief

stint as a writer.

Unfortunately, Arsenic and Old Lace has long

gone by and my memory is failing, but for a few of

the play’s highlights and outstanding performers.

The capturing role of a love struck, rich girl was

played by the very professional Allegra Fulton. In

direct contact with Allegra’s innocence was Mike

Bolwell’s in his humorous portrayal of a nasty Boris

Carloff type. Ben Knight playing “Teddy” and Chris

Michaels a drunken German scientist, were equally

funny, being able to distract me more than once from

my camera.

As usual Joany Barootes stole the stage — in her

appearance as an investigating Police Officer. Gerald

Ricey’s dual part as the “victims” rivaled “Teddy”

with a beautiful touch of “hamism”.

Suffice to say for two nights, the company received

a well earned standing ovation.

Student Council

This year’s Student Council was rather quiet. The

first term was the busiest with the formation of new

committees and alloting of student monies.

In the second and third term, however, because of

the great initiative of various organizations within

the student body, there wasn’t as great a need for

Student Council to run events.

The Film Committee put on a few films this year

— including a Monty Python feature. The School

Spirit Committee presented a refreshing “School

Spirit Week’’. Throughout the year the School Spirit

Committee along with the Publicity Committee

supported activities. The dance Committee was only

able to stage three record dances. The Formal

Committee held its extravaganza at the Royal York.

It was the first time dinner was included with the

evening. It was an experiment.

At the end of the year in a flash of creativity, the

student council planned its first paper dump, also a |

Grade 13 textbook supply day.

All in all it was a busy year.

G.A.C.

This has been one of our best years! It started with

an assembly to introduce the girls of Jarvis to the

many sports offered. A play day followed for the

grade nines, to get them to participate in interform

throughout the year. It worked! The majority of

participants in interform were “Niners”. Now if only

we could spark some life into the rest of the stagnant

seniors. Basketball, Volleyball, Mixed, Doubles, and

Singles Badminton, Gymnastics, Swim and Track

were among the many inter form sports that went on.

Well done!

At the G.A.C.’s annual Red, White, and Blue

Revue were many talented students and a teacher, Bo

Basuik appeared. What happened to the rest of the

teachers?

All in all, it was a terrific year! Here’s to you,

Jarvis!

Your G.A.C.

B.A.A.

The B.A.A. (Boys’ Athletic Association) is an

organization comprised of a few boys from each

grade who are interested in making Jarvis’s athletic

program a better one. Not only does the B.A.A.

construct and carry out the entire intramural

program, but they assist in other extracurricular

activities, such as the B.A.A. Annual Athletic

Awards Banquet. This event honours the finest

athletes in each sport. Here the interform awards

won during the year are also presented.

A great deal of hard work goes into making these

events possible for the student body. Please show

your appreciation in the form of attendance to interform,

B.A.A. nights, and the athletic banquet.

It’s for your benefit!

Concert Choir f

Under the auspicious direction of Mr. Low, the choir l\

was in fine voice by November giving three concerts in- pr

eluding Benjamin Britten’s “Rejoice in the Lamb” at

Yorkminister Park Baptist Church with organist Gerald

Webster.

Another highlight of the season was the ninth annual

Christmas concert which included Pearsall’s “In Dulci

Jubilo” and some traditional English carols. March 2nd

saw a long awaited ambition of Mr. Low’s; Mozart’s

“Requiem” was performed at St. Luke’s United Church

beautifully accompanied by John Tuttle of St. Paul’s

Anglican Church. Admittedly, it was a difficult undertaking

but the final product was more than worth the

Tuesday night labours.

Come May, the Chamber Choir performed a complete

service at St. Paul’s Anglican Church.

This year of beautiful music was brought to a close with

Music Night. Included were some old favourites such as

Three Willan Motets, two movements from the

“Requiem” and a six part motet by Charles Villiers

Stanford.

Our thanks to Miss Catherine Patterson, our regular and

most competent accompanist, and to Mr. Low who has

taught us to share the beauty of music with each other and

with our audiences.

Orchestra

This was another successful year in the annals of

the Orchestra.

The Senior Orchestra rehearsed once a week

throughout the year in preparation for the annual

“Autumn Leaves” concert in November and the

“Music Night” in May.

The Intermediate String Orchestra and String

Ensemble performed at the “Music Night” in May.

The Junior String Orchestra, a combination of both

Grade Nine music classes, also played at “Music

Night”.

The Senior String Ensemble rehearsed two

mornings a week throughout the school year. They

performed at the Autumn Leaves and Music Night

Concerts, as well as the annual Evening of Chamber

Music in February.

The Ensemble was invited to perform a concert for

the music students of Park Senior Public School in

April.

This year has sounded many high notes.

50


Band

The band started off the year with its fall concert

Autumn Leaves.

A fund raising project, “La Scala” was organized

a night of 300 people. The money raised was used to

outfit the girls with beautiful new uniforms.

The band played their annual concert at Kipling

Acres (an old folks home) in February. In April the

“little sidekick”, the stage band gave a well received

show at Park Junior School.

The high point of the year was the bands visit to

Calhoun High School in Merrick, Long Island,

where Hubert received a well earned ovation for his

solo concertino.

The Calhounians were at Jarvis during the first

week of May.

The year ended with Senior music night.

A very good year, thanks to Mr. Lehman.



China

We the “China Trippers” are a group of twentyone

students who had faith in our leader’s two year

efforts in getting the Canadian and Chinese

governments to give him permission to take us on an

eighteen day tour of China.

The preparation for the trip was extensive. Fund

raising projects such as our rummage sale, auction

and rock concert, show our ambition and spirit. Even

on our arrival in Peking, we could not grasp the

feeling of having accomplished our dream.

Throughout our trip in Peking, Sian, Chang Shaw,

Kwelin and Kanton, we were treated like Kings.

Albeit, it was tiring, continuously making notes,

listening to long lectures, taking bumpy bus rides.

This trip has certainly changed our view of China

and even that of life. On returning to Canada, we

realized that we left an impression on the Chinese

People as not only “Jarvisites” but as Canadians.

This is the first year since 1972 that Jarvis has had

a Bridge Club. The club was helped by the continual

support of our sponsors, Mr. Sumi and Mrs.

Coombes (until Jan.). The members of the club

would like to thank our sponsors for their continual

attendance at meetings and active interest in our

activities. The club was aided also by a few very

instructive lessons on proper duplicate play by Mr.

David MacIntyre.

The club was involved in numerous activities this

year involving matches against the faculty and other

schools. However these were limited because of the

low enrollment in our club. Our activities could be

extended to regular lessons and matches, if all those

interested in learning bridge or if all those who **

already know how to play bridge would join next

year’s bridge club.

Many of our member’s bridge skills improved

greatly over the year but for the most part the

members just had fun whilst playing one of the most

skilful games in the world.

Chess

The chess club after a one year absence has

returned to Jarvis. We started with high hopes of

winning the city championship (ha ha), but due to a

number of unfortunate circumstances (and a lack of

strong players), we eventually did not join the city

league. However, having received a generous

allotment, we consoled our disappointment by

replacing our old and worn equipment with a new set

of boards, pieces, and even chess clocks! The last

item, a luxury as well as novelty for Jarvis has increased

the enjoyment of the chess club for many

Javisities. Although we’re not saying that anyone

takes too long to make their moves, “speed chess” as

it is called, allows you to leave for home before six

o’clock. A library has also been established because

of our grant, and we hope it will grow and help the

novice as well as the more experienced player.

In spite of our small number, the attendance for

the club is quite consistant and regular. We, on

occassion, have had a few “chess bums” visit and try

our players. We have been housed on a second floor

study hall, with the simple policy of if you wish to

play, you can.

We are looking forward to next year, and we hope

that we may find some new strength in new players

next year.

CHESS: No regular membership, Mr.

Kam, Sponsor.

Badminton

As usual, there were many badminton enthusiasts.

In fact, there were so many that we had to limit the

membership. However as the seasons changed, so did

the membership. Winter came upon us and half of

the members decided that trudging through the snow

was enough exercise. Spring followed, but unfortunately

some of the members were either still in

hibernation or had decided it was much nicer to

spend the time on Yonge Street.

Actually, the rest of the “devoted” members

decided it was better to have a smaller group. So it

was not all that bad. As a matter of fact, the

highlight of each clubnight was watching our teacher

sponsors, Mrs. Harrison and Mr. Channing play

badminton, for without them, there would not have

been a club. Also special thanks to one of the

mothers, Mrs. Whalen, who devoted her time to

watch over us when Mrs. Harrison or Mr. Channing

was busy. Thanks again.

The Art Club has had an enjoyable and progressive

year. We have done a number of creative projects for

the school such as the Bulldog on the gym doors,

flowers on the windows of the skywalk and banners

for the basketball tournament. We were also commissioned

to decorate the Hudson’s Bay Centre, in

the mall section, with spring floral designs.

The Art club is available to school groups, clubs

and any other activities for various artistic services.

Our club is a useful organization - we provided art

for the school, enjoy doing things together and learn

new ways to express ourselves creatively.

Dance

Somewhere in the hollowed halls of good old

J.C.I. there was heard music and sounds of feet

dancing away. Yes, we’re talking about Jarvis’

Dance Club. Slow to start... but once these talented

girls and guys get started . . . well, there was just no

stopping them. Although, they were not the most

talked about group, they kept on working together

knowing that one day they would be discovered as

the “dancers” of Jarvis C.I.

A very unique group — each one an individual

personality. Together they put on a terrific performance

for the annual Red White and Blue Revue.

A great group, full of spirit, enthusiasm, and best of

all talent. They were always practicing (inspite of all

the other school activities going on) and just about

anywhere they could find a spot. Perserverance was

their greatest attribute. During their season consisting

of the team from Jan. to May, many decisions

were constantly being made and constantly changing.

However, these people survived all the ups and all the

downs. True performers they made their first debut

for the Red White and Blue Revue held by the

G.A.C. at Jarvis. As the saying goes, “we’ve only

just begun ...” and we’re looking forward to next

year when we’ll know more and do better. A super

group of people whom we truly enjoyed working

with.

Science

First and foremost, we would like to thank you for

your enthusiasm and guidance throughout the past

year. It is common knowledge that you are the

driving force behind the Jarvis Science Club. It’s no

one’s fault that only a small portion of the Jarvis

populace takes advantage of the seminars given by

guest speakers, guided tours, films and the

mastermind tournament we jointly organized. The

general consensus though, is that our demonstration

night was the most entertaining; it certainly ended

with a bang. It is regretful that we suffered from

indigestion immediately afterwards. In the past and

present our problem has dealt with communication

with the student body. We should find a way to

entice the interested but shy would-be-members to

our meetings. It’s too bad that we can’t tell them that

joining the club does not mean fees and/or compulsory

attendance but a relaxed, casual meeting that

almost always deals with some aspect of science.

Perhaps we could dispell some of the rumours about

how the science club members, “approach the thin

edge of sanity.’’ Only we know that it is the

executives, not the members who have come close.

This is a


Wildlife

The Wildlife Club’s objective is to make people

understand the importance of conserving wildlife and

other natural resources.

We have approximately twenty members. With

each open school event, we have tried to change the

stereotyped attitudes of people in thinking that the

only good animal is a dead animal.

The Wildlife Club has brought the wolf, Rocky, to

the school, the film “Death of a Legend’’ was included.

By this event, we tried to discourage peoples

fear of wolves.

The film “Peppa” showed people the vanishing

beauty of African wildlife, and the continuous

poaching of protected wildlife for sport and profit.

A speaker from the Metro Zoo and Professor

Keith Ronald, from the University of Guelph, lectured

at the Wildlife Club concerning the Seal Hunt.

In the coming year, we will be dealing with the

common fear of snakes and other reptiles. The

Canadian Amphibian and Reptile Conservation

Society will be coming to the Wild Life Club along

with a boa constrictor and maybe a snapping turtle.

Stage Crew

The Stage Crew under the brilliant direction of

Todd Glover, provided light and sound for many

auditorium performances: The Red, White and Blue

Revue, Arsenic and Old Lace, just to mention a few.

Many a performer’s voice and many a critic’s vision

were saved, by the efforts of these gentlemen of the

Stage Crew.

Many thanks gents!!

THE RISE AND FALL

OF FRENCH ABSOLUTISM

By Karen Brison 12L

"It was not that Louis XVI’s position differed so much from

Louis XIV’s that he lost his head but, rather, that times had

changed."

This essay will attempt to prove that the above statement is false

and that it was the weak character of Louis XVI that altered the

position of the absolute, centralized monarchy established by

Louis XIV, to make it weak, aristocratically dominated and

inefficient. This change in the monarchy caused the aggravation

of the peasantry, the political and social frustration of the

bourgeoisie and the inability on the government’s part to enforce

and produce effective reforms necessary in this age of change.

These were all major causes of the French Revolution.

Louis XIV, the Sun King, who once advised his son “All that is

necessary to this work is at the same time agreeable; for, in a word,

my son, it is to have one’s eyes open to the whole earth; to learn

each hour the news concerning every prejudice and every nation

.. . The most hidden interests of those who came to us with quite

contrary professions”, was undeniably an absolute monarch Not

satisfied until he had control and knowledge of every aspect of his

kingdom, he did much towards centralizing the power of the state

into the hands of one absolute monarch during his reign. “1 gave

orders to the four secretaries of state no longer to sign anything

whatsoever without speaking to me; likewise to the controller,” he

wrote in the same advisory letter to his son. To establish personal

control over everything that went on in his country was Louis

XIV’s goal which he achieved to a great extent through the army

reforms of Michel le Tellicr and by the use of middle class intendantes

posted in the provinces to keep under control the local

aristocracy and report all to the King.

“In social life Louis was the leader of the nobles; in

work he was the executive head of the bourgeoisie,

ctical

is a

statement that, perhaps, sums up best Louis’ main policy towards

the strengthening of the monarchy: to take away all actual power

from the aristocracy and give it to the more easily intimidated and,

therefore, more loyal bourgeoisie.

It must be understood, however, that while Louis XIV reserved

for himself the final right of decision on all matters, he also

respected the knowledge of others. Carefully delegating the power

among his carefully chosen bourgeoisie ministers so that each man

had not too much power and so that each position was occupied by

the man best qualified for it, he listened to the advice of his

ministers recognizing that they often knew better than he. To rule

wisely, respectful of the advice of those who knew best, but to

never allow others to decide for him was the task Louis XIV

demanded of himself with admirable success.

So it was that under Louis XIV the monarchy was strong,

centralized, efficient, supported by the bourgeoisie, and capable of

introducing any reforms deemed necessary for the country.

Thus the Sun King, who firmly believed in the Divine Rule of

Kings, ruled his kingdom for over half a century, and it was this

concept of the position of the monarchy that was inherited by

Louis XVI. However, as one historian states, “The condition on

which Louis XIV had bequeathed greatness to the French

monarchy was that the monarch should be equal to the task imposed

on him.”4 Louis XVI certainly was not equal to the task.

Herein lies the difference between his role as monarch and that of

Louis XIV. It was not how Louis XVI inherited the role of

monarch that made the difference, but how he interpreted it.

Weak, disinterested and easily swayed by his noble friends and his

wife, Louis XIV altered the monarchy he inherited to make it

dependent on aristocratic advisors, inefficient, and absolutely

incapable of introducing necessary reforms.

One of the most important and harmful consequences to the

monarchy of Louis XVI was the usurpation of royal power by the

nobles of the sword which led to the political and social frustration

of that ambitious and rising class in French society, the

bourgeoisie. This frustration of the bourgeoisie led them to cast

their eyes toward England where the middle classes were not only

regarded as necessary and respectable members of society, unlike

the French bourgeoisie, but had actually thrown out a King they

did not like in the Glorious Revolution of 1688. Living in

proximity to the peasantry, the French bourgeoisie were in an

excellent position to influence the peasants themselves to revolt

because of the privileges enjoyed by the aristocracy which closed

the door to any possible bourgeoisie ascendancy in the ranks of

French society.

Basically, the political and social frustration of the bourgeoisie

was caused by the rise in influence and power of the nobles, during

the reign of Louis XVI because of his weakness and quality of

being easily swayed by whoever could catch his car. Since the

nobles were in closest contact with him on a regular basis, it is they

who had the most influence on him.

In the monarchy of Louis XIV, as stated previously, the court

and government were kept strictly separated by the King. The

nobles were given privileges and social distinction but all actual

political power was in the hands of the King through his

bourgeoisie ministers. Louis XVI had neither the ability nor the

authority to separate court and government in this manner. As a

result, by 1789, the nobles had so infiltrated and dominated the

government that there was only one bourgeoisie minister; the rest

were nobles. This led to policies deliberately intended to enhance

the power of the nobles at the expense of bourgeoisie. For

example, the Scgur Ordinaire, passed in 1781, limited commissioned

entrance to the army to those who could prove four

generations of nobility. The result of this was that “The army and

the navy were made more rigidly aristocratic than ever before.

Under Louis XIV a bourgeois, Vanban, could become a marshal

of France;

captain.’’^

under Louis XVI he could barely have become a

In addition, the political ambition of the middle class was

checked by the nobles of the sword. Those who had bought their

way into the nobility were deprived of the most important practical

advantages of their statics; for instance, the parliaments

recruited new members entirely from the aristocracy.

Another harmful result to the Bourbon monarchy, brought

about by the rise of the nobles as a direct result of the weakness of

Louis XVI, was the aggravation of the peasants. Whereas under

Louis XIV the peasants had been protected somewhat against the

feudal provincial aristocracy by the intendants, under Louis XVI

the intendants were often appointed from the nobility with the

result that they not longer represented the interests of the peasants

but the local aristocracy. The provincial aristocrats took advantage

of the situation by enforcing feudal laws more strongly

which caused extreme aggravation to the peasants.

This aggravation of the peasants, as a result of the breakdown in

the central authority of the monarch over the provincial aristocrats

caused by the weak character of Louis XVI, was harmful to the

monarchy because it made the peasants more willing to revolt

under the leadership of the bourgeoisie when the time came.

The weakness of character of Louis XVI led to a general

inefficiency and inability to take effective action that had not been

characteristic of the reign of Louis XIV.

One of the most marked examples of the lack of consistent

policy during the reign of Louis XVI was the long list of

Controller-Generals who ruled under him in less than twenty

years. Each in turn was dismissed because he had displeased in

some way a court favourite of the Queen, thus making any sort of

consistency of policy impossible. When one compares to the reign

of Colbert under Louis XIV, twenty-two years ended only by his

death, it is not difficult to see that there was a marked decrease in

62


efficiency in the monarchy under Louis XVI, as compared to that

of Louis XIV.

Also impeding effective action by the government in the field of

social and fiscal reforms were the parliaments, a body of

aristocrats who registered royal edicts to make them law. Under

Louis XIV this had been a mere formality. However, under the

weak Louis XVI the parliaments took it upon themselves to refuse

to register royal edicts of which they did not approve.

Also, due to the weakness of Louis XVI, ministers were

prevented from making necessary reforms for fear of being

dismissed if their policy were to offend some court favourite as

had been the case with Maupcau, among others, a minister under

Louis XV who had taken action to check the power of the

parliaments and had been dismissed on the accession to the throne

of Louis XVI.

All of the afore mentioned three ways in which the monarchy

was blocked from taking effective action due to the weakness of

Louis XVI were of grave importance in that they prevented the

monarchy from making the necessary changes in the fiscal, social

and economic systems of the country to prevent a revolution.

Perhaps the most important necessary change was the taxation of

the first and second estates.

The major difference between the positions of Louis XIV and

Louis XV was not in the way the monarchy was established but in

the way the two men interpreted the role. Louis XVI, unlike Louis

XIV, was a weak ruler who allowed himself to be easily swayed,

thereby giving loo much power to the aristocracy. In turn, their

power led to the political frustration of the bourgeoisie the

aggravation of the peasants, and a general lack of efficiency in the

government which prevented it from making effective reforms in

the fiscal system. These three results were all major causes of the

revolution.

That times had changed from the reign of Louis XIV to that of

Louis XVI is undeniable. The reign of Louis XIV had been a

transition period, a classical compromise between the forces of

traditional authority and free exercise of the human intellect. As

one historian puts it “This coexistence of the two standards has

been aptly called cultural bimetallism. The solution was transitory

but for a few decades it proved a resting place.”7 It was an age

where religion ruled supreme and where the concept of the divine

right of Kings was not out of place. Coming after the confusion

and disorder of the Thirty Years War as it did, the absolute

monarchy of Louis XIV was accepted by the people as a strong

force to establish order, national unity, and stability.

During the reigns of Louis XV and XVI there was a great shift in

the values of the people due to the spread of the Enlightenment

from other countries, particularly Britain, owing to less strict

censorship and to the spread of education in the new ideas down

from the privileged classes to the peasantry and to the petit

bourgeoisie.

The new political philosophies popular during the enlightenment

were generally all geared toward giving power to the people.

Locke, with theory on the Spirit of the Laws; Hobbes, with his

idea of replacing an inefficient monarch, and Rousseau with his

theory that the laws should be in the best interests of the people, all

contributed to a political philosophy rapidly diverging from that

of an absolute monarchy. The American Revolution with its cry

“no taxation without representation" also had great influence on

the thoughts of the people.

In religion, a new emphasis was being placed on the pleasures of

an earthly life rather than on the after-life. People were turning

more and more away from the church which, with its theory of the

divine right of Kings, was one of the main supports to the

monarchy. Also new ideas were being introduced into the

educational system following the abolition of the conservative

traditional teaching order, the Jesuits. However, it can be argued

that this shift away from the authority of the Church was mainly

confined to the Upper classes and had not yet filtered down to the

peasantry and petit bourgeoisie.

In the social structure of the times, the bourgeoisie were

becoming more and more demanding of respect for their position

as useful members of society and for political power. With their

rising consciousness of their importance to society, the bourgeoisie

were no longer willing to accept the irrational social privileges

given to the aristocracy on a historical basis which no longer

applied to the times.

In economic philosophy emphasis was being placed on a laissezfaire

economic system, with very little or no government

regulation.

On the practical side of economics, the small farmers were

feeling the pinch of an age which placed its emphasis on farms in

large efficient units and were, therefore, more inclined towards

discontent and rebellion. Also, the aristocracy, barred by law from

trade, felt compelled to enforce feudal laws more strictly in order

to support their extravagant life style. In addition, the reign of

Louis XVI came at a time when people lived longer because of

food supplies that were made possible by better agricultural

methods. The longevity of life however, meant more people were

affected by a depression when it came. When full depression did

come it only magnified the previously experienced standard of

living, greatly contributing to the discontent and revolutionary

spirit among the people.

In conclusion, there was, undeniably, a change in times from the

reign of Louis XIV to that of Louis XVI, which pointed towards

rule by people for the people, a levelling of social classes, and, in

short, the elimination of the monarchy. However, it was the weak

and inefficient position of the monarchy under Louis XVI which

prevented effective change, aggravated the peasants, and

frustrated the political ambition of the bourgeoisie. These factors

caused the revolt of the third estate. The position of the monarchy

under Louis XIV was also an absolute monarchy but it was in no

sense weak and inefficient. Louis XIV had a strong centralized

government capable of making effective reforms and it was the

weak character of Louis XVI which destroyed this position and

caused revolution.

Margaret Atwood —

The Edible Woman

“The Landlady”

“A Night in the Royal Ontario Museum”

“A Foundling”

"This is a Photograph of Me”

“Playing Cards”

“Backdrop Addresses Cowboy”

by

Patricia Either Orr 13H

In the present-day scramble for female Canadian writers,

Margaret Atwood emerges as the cream of contemporary

Canadian fiction. Through both her novels and poetry she

examines and displays the grapple of man’s unfailing quest for

identity in a chaotic yet ductile, conventional world. Through this,

Atwood presents the reader with a variety of choices to maintain

“sanity” and “humanity” in our "over-packaged” world and so

beautifully portrays it in her novel, THE EDIBLE WOMAN, and

six theme-related poems.

THE EDIBLE WOMAN is described by Alan Dawc as “in

effect, the intelligent woman’s guide to survival in a contemporary

world. 1 He goes on to say that Marian is presented with a

number of choices, “each of which is neatly represented by

someone this dctcrmindedly average girl meets during an average

day in her life.”2 However, Atwood does not allow Marian the

choice of continuing her present self-destructive lifestyle, in which

we find her battling her underlying rage even against her landlady

who takes violent steps to prevent her child from “corruption”

and subtly smothers Marian’s rather weak character with which

she is frantically searching for identity.

This perhaps is most beautifully illustrated in Atwood’s poem,

“The Landlady”. Here Atwood captures the attitude and reactions

that Marian holds towards “the lair of the landlady”. An

example:

she is everywhere, intrusive as the smells

that bulge in under my doorsill;

she presides over my

meagre eating, generates

the light for eyestrain.

From her I rent my lime:

she slams

my days like doors.

Nothing is mine

and when I dream images

of daring escapes through the snow

I find myself walking

always over a vast face

which is the land —

lady’s, and wake up shouting.3

Throughout THE EDIBLE WOMAN the landlady appears

during strategic moments “blocking” Marian’s way and providing

an ironic surface humor, yet remaining a symbolic message of

human relationships. Marian finds her "senses/are cluttered by

perception” as the landlady, “a bulk”, “a slab of what is real"

traps and suppresses, through her dominance, Marian’s real

identity.

It is quickly brought to one’s attention that Marian, in her banal

situation must choose for sanity’s sake a more spontaneous and

less burdening life style.

If so, would Ainsley, her roommate provide that variation.

Marian could stay single like Ainsley — who eventually marries

anyway. Yet Marian’s ambivalent nature would hardly lead her to

become a “scheming superfemale” like Ainsley, who has a knack

for adjusting her ideologies to whatever suits her best. “Ainsley

knows at least two things for certain: to fulfill herself every woman

needs to have a child, though no woman in her right and independent

mind needs a husband.”4 For Marian, this alternative

would not be a suitable recipe to follow in unsticking herself from

the batter of society and in finding her identity.

There is a second alternative which Atwood offers Marian. This

is the no-man’s-Iand presently occuped by the “office virgins”.

Emmy, Millie and Lucy are the pointing “signposts to a future of

frustrated hypochondria and fastidiousness.Unlike Marian,

they fit perfectly into the "gooey Layer” of the Seymour Survey

office floors.

Or, she could choose Clara’s style of reproduction; a sort of

assembly-line of dirty diapers, and the results:

Clara greeted her first pregnancy with

astonishment that such a thing could

happen to her, and her second with

dismay; now, during her third, she

had subsided into a grim but inert

fatalism. Her metaphors for her

children included barnacles encrustine

a ship and limpets clinging to a rock.®

As for Clara’s children, they hardly provide a desirable escape

for Marian.

He just loves peeing behind doors.

I wonder what it is. He’s going

to be secretive when he grows up,

an undercover agent or a diplomat

or something. The furtive little

bastard.2

All is not lost for Marian McAlpine. There is Peter who has been

neatly cut out of “Penthouse”, the ambitious young professional

who likes guns, fast cars, cameras, and, no doubt, big tits. His life

offers her a chic apartment in the city, no children for a few years,

and when they do come, they will be tidy, well-behaved and grossly

dull. This is certainly not Marian’s choice to relieve her from her

overly-dead and unidentifiable world.

Marian begins to mix her alternatives, testing different combinations

with what she thinks she wants or rather needs. The

supporting characters become stereotyped, no longer people, but

ways of life. Atwood describes Marian’s quest and sparks of

discovery about her past similarity to that of her poem “A Night in

the Royal Ontario Museum”. For Marian also asks, “who locked

me/into this crazed man-madc/stone brain”. However;

... in spite of the diagrams

at every corner, labelled

in red: YOU ARE HERE...8

she cannot free herself from herself or from her choices. Despite

all the help (hat is offered to Marian, she is;

... dragged to the mind’s

dead end, the roar of the boneyard,

I am lost..

The more she sees the less she likes herself and society;

I say I am far

enough, stop here please

no more 10

Marian finds herself lost, helpless, terrified and intertwined in her

past, yet the “office virgins” claim that “she never lets herself get

out of control”.

There is a last possibility to aid Marian’s smoldering life, and

that is Duncan. She could always dive under Duncan’s mountains

of jaded trivia and join him there.

Throughout the novel, his unrealistic, totally unattached

feelings and his separation from Marian’s other choices of life

styles, attract vet repel Marian. He is the excitement, the spontaneity

that Marian is searching for — yet when closely eyed, he is

much the same as the others in his own way — organized,

predictable, and quite humanly oriented. They arc both searching

for an identity; they are both victims; they both bolt, yet return —

they cannot escape their humanity. Both arc trapped in

civilization.

Their relationship can be well described by Atwood’s poem, “A

Foundling”. Marian felt a great motherly concern, a desire to care

for him.

He left himself on my doorstep,

abandoned in the shabby

baskets of his own ribs.

My heart wept custard:

I took him in.11

The poem, like Duncan, symbolizes the ironic fact that we arc

all the same, and although we wish that our experiences were

unique, mysterious and individually our own; they arc not.

Duncan was as in “A Foundling”, “swelled” and absorbed:

... staring at the bright scars

traced on his body, fascinated.12

Marian feels sorry for him, likewise in the poem:

At first

1 thought that they were notched

on him by pain13

She realizes near the end of the novel, as the narrator also

realizes:

... that they are only the coloured pictures

of places he once

lived, and thinks

that no one else has ever been. ^

It is through this similarity that Duncan escapes into his fantasies

from the “norm” of society.

None of these choices arc particularly appetizing, “but in

Chapter 27, all of her alternatives are brought together at the

cocktail party in Peter’s apartment and the moment finally arrives

when she must choose.”15 She bolts, terrified, escapes, and

chooses Duncan — rather like Russian Roulette, it seems ...

As Marian is hustled closer and closer to her appointed pigeonhole,

she is drawn further and further away from herself. This is

superbly emphasized by Atwood’s ability to shift from the first

person to the third person and back again in the narrative of THE

EDIBLE WOMAN.

Atwood’s nature of imagination and use of imagery in the novel

during the drowning of Marian’s partial identity can be compared

with her poem, “This is a Photograph of Me”. Both deal with the

description binocularly.

In THE EDIBLE WOMAN, Marian is being consumed; in the

poem, the narrator is drowned. In both instances, the tranquillity

of the scene (or the continual banal movement of people in society)

is parallel with the dissolving or death of a human being without

concern or notice. “I am in the lake, in the ccnier/of the picture,

just under the surface". Marian was in her realm of friends, yet

slowly being consumed. Marian attempted to point out her loss of

mental, emotional, and spiritual identity, yet no one could see. In

the poem, the narrator says:

... but if you look long enough,

eventually

you will be able to see me.16

Even though both point out their loss, society is too confused in its

conventions to stop and try to realize what is actually happening.

Marian continually asks; “Am I normal”, “I want to be adjusted

... I don’t sec any point in being unstable”.

In THE EDIBLE WOMAN, Atwood makes brilliant use of the

sustained metaphor of eating. All the major scenes take place at

either a meal or a snack; things are described as being layered “like

an ice cream sandwich, with three floors: the upper crust, the

lower crust and our department, the gooey layer in the middle.”17

When Marian unconsciously realizes she is being consumed, she

begins to reject certain foods. For example: “She put a forkful

into her mouth and chewed it slowly; it felt spongy and cellular

against her tongue, like the bursting of thousands of liny

lungs.”18 Eventually she can eat nothing. Her plight finally ends

when she realizes consciously what is happening to her. As she says

to her cake-lady: "You look delicious . . . very appetizing. And

that’s what will happen to you; that’s what you get for being

food.”1®

This confrontation is similar to that of Atwood’s poem,

"Playing Cards”. At this point, Marian is as the poem suggests,

“tired with all the games”. She confronts Peter as the narrator in

the poem confronts the unidentified person.

In both cases, each of the individuals is stripping their facades;

they arc “wearing no costumes”. Peter no longer has his

“sceptre” and Marian no longer has her “flowers”. Together they

approach each other — yet no one wins the games of society; there

is always someone who loses. Atwood, in both cases, criticizes

North America for its banality towards life.

THE EDIBLE WOMAN is a novel of agreeable packaging. The

novel itself is agreeably packaged in cynical humour to hide the

fury beneath; just as Marian has packaged herself agreeably in

things ranging from clothes and make-up to a cheerful conciliatory

disposition to hide her fury. The other characters arc agreeably

packaged, though the difference is that they arc also neatly

labelled and Marion is not. Her manner and dress is too middle-ofthe-road

to be pigeon-holed; thus, the other characters who have

obligingly pigeon-holed themselves set about converting Marian so

at least they will know where to place her. Finally, at the cocktail

party, she has donned false eyelashes and a girdle, thus putting

herself in the “Peter’s wife” slot. Everybody is happy except, of

course, the ones who can sec.

Once realizing this, and nearing the end of the novel, Marian

comes in contact with reality. She is now able to discriminate or

choose what suits her. The realization of society and its ability to

take complete control over the individual has become understood

and is beginning to be dealt with. Atwood treats this with cynical

humour just as she docs in the poem, “Backdrop Addresses

Cowboy”. Using mixed metaphors and imagery, she turns it into a

literal description just as she does with Marian’s realization in

THE EDIBLE WOMAN. Both the narrator and Marian know

that they arc not part of this ’’backdrop”; however, they feel that

society expects them to have their “hands clasped in admiration”

towards it. Both have the revelation that the world, so neatly

placed in front of them, is lacking true reality, and that time and

space arc becoming invaded and slowly raped by society. Marian

has chosen the other road; she refuses to let society have control

over her. Atwood describes this in the last three stanzas:

but I am elsewhere.

Then what about me

what about the I

confronting you on that border

you are always trying to cross?20

Atwood leaves us with that question at the end of her poem and at

the end of THE EDIBLE WOMAN. Where does Marian

McAlpine fit into society’s recipe; how does she follow the steps if

there are none provided for her?

In both THE EDIBLE WOMAN and her poems, Margaret

Atwood exhibits “the civilized world as an orgy of can-

66


I

i

nibalism",21 and through this terrifying consuming effect “the

relationship between men and women, the defences each individual

puts up to protect the fragile ego, and the devices we all

use to make contact through those defensive shields”^ is more

than apparent. “By a bitingly ironic turn of mind, she is able to

create a scries of witty and amusing vigncttcs"23 that can so easily

be related towards our personal experiences and our understanding

of a banal world. It is Atwood’s understanding of society that

provides the reader with an interesting formula and an incredible

stimulation to reevaluate his present position in a life so well

described in her poetry and in her novel, THE EDIBLE WOMAN.

THE MYTH OF ADO

AND LESS-SENSE

In the beginning Ado reigned over the earth and

the many animals that inhabited it. As time passed

and Ado matured, he became extremely weary with

his reign. He realized his superiority in intelligence

and began to accept his emotional responses unlike

the animals who were determined to remain beasts of

the uncivilized world.

In order to survive through the constant banalities

of life he resorted to various schemes. Ado acquired

a perverse satisfaction by tricking the animals into

abusing and hurting each other.

After many years he became bored of his games

and after much thought concluded that his problem

could be solved by the competition and stimulation

of another human being. Ado spent much of his time

contemplating on how the birth of this being was to

take place. One day, while sitting under his favourite

apple tree he came upon the answer. He would grow

a companion by pulling each hair out of his body and

planting it in the shape of his own body. Unfortunately,

the animals became very angry and

jealous at the thought of another human being on

earth (even though they were mistreated) and attempted

to pull out the hairs, however they only

succeeded in rearranging them.

Ado ordered the sun to shine all day and the sky to

pour rain all night upon the figure. It began to grow

and take shape. Ado soon realized that the image of

himself was different than the one he had planted,

and sadly enough he could do nothing about it. It

continued to grow until the day it emerged from the

ground a human form, much to Ado’s and the

animals’ dislike.

As lime took its course, Ado began to enjoy his

new companion but was jealous, as it was much more

beautiful than he was and had less of the ugly hair

due to the animals rampage of rearranging the figure.

He began to despise her and claimed she lacked his

superior intelligence — so he called her Less-Sense.

As time passed Ado grew to hate Less-Sense and

decided to use her to gain another human being,

hoping that he would have more luck than he did

with Less-Sense. He then directed Less-Sense to

abide by his orders of bearing him a child. Caught in

this trap and possessing no sense, she agreed to go

through with his order. She then bore a child,

however both Ado and Less-Sense grew to dislike it,

for it was more beautiful than either of them. As it

became older, they began to ignore it and took out

their hatred for each other on it.

Almost twelve years had passed and the child was

becoming very confused about his relationships and

the world around him. To solve this problem Ado

and Less-Sense decided that their child needed a

name. Due to their jealousy towards each other, they

were continually quarreling over what to call it.

Finally compromising, they combined both their

names which represented rebellion against other

humans, hate, love, and the remaining emotions.

Their child became Adolescence.

68

Now adolescence began to distrust the humans

who had brought him onto the earth. Adolescene

began to mistreat the other humans as they

mistreated him. In order to punish Adolescence, Ado

cast a spell upon him. Less-Sense was against this.

However Ado explained that if the spell was cast all

humans would be able to detect Adolescence.

Therefore Ado cast the spell on Adolescence which

caused large red bumps and marks to appear on his

back, chest, and face until he became the age of

twenty-one. All Adolescence’s attempts to rid

himself of these terribly ugly marks failed, where

ever he went all humans remarked about

Adolescence.

Now it came to be that Ado and Less-Sense were

worried about the development of Adolescence. For

he was not of superior intelligence and wisdom like

them. So Ado, having great fun from casting his

spell, cast yet another. He made Adolescence’s hair

become extremely oily so that the oil would seep into

his head and help his mind to function. It was no help

to Adolescence as he became very unhappy, but alas

he could not rid himself of the oil either.

Ado and Less-Sense began to worry once more

about Adolescence. Less-Sense blamed Ado for

casting the spells and thought it had been unwise and

harmful to Adolescence’s growth. Ado feeling pity

towards Adolescence thought of a way to make up

for his tricks. He cast another spell which was to give

love and attraction, not only for humans of his kind

but for those of the opposite sex. Less-Sense also cast

a spell out of pity and love which allowed

Adolescence to maintain this spell throughout his life

on earth.

Adolescence was happy and content with this as it

comforted him and gave him a security he had never

felt. He began to ignore his parents and the others

who brought him the unnecessary worries he was

most willing to discard. However, through the experiences

of this new emotion and his unyielding

attraction became confused and depressed. This was

due to the fact that Adolescence was never taught or

showed how to love, as Ado and Less-Sense never

loved each other.

As timed passed, Adolescence became the age

where the spells cast by Ado no longer affected him

and he was accepted into society to live a free life

from the marks and the oil but still held on to the

attraction and love for human beings. However, Ado

and Less-Sense did not escape without having to pay

penance for their tricks. Occasionally Ado and Less-

Sense are tormented by their evil schemes by experiencing

the marks, the oil, and the childish

confusion that Adolescence had suffered.

A Tribute to

Patricia E. Orr

Pat Orr. . . a person of an extensive and varied

reputation.

The faculty is at a loss for words, when it comes to

Patricia E. Orr. Yet with the mention of her name

one question never ceases to rise. Is she sane? This

always looming question seemingly gives Pat a

license “TO KILL”.

It is 8:45 on the morning of April I, 1975. Mr.

George Tovel (our famous Ex-Vice-Principal and

Attendance Sheriff) is seen running out of the P.A.

room, screaming “Monster”. Seconds later,

caretakers, armed with shovels, rush to the scene and

proceed to beat the “Monster” ... the gerbil to

death.

The gerbil was one of four Pat had released in

Jarvis as an “April Fools” prank.

A different Pat Orr was seen during the

O.S.S.T.F. strike. Daily, Pat delivered care packages

to weather worn teachers on the picket line. When

later forced back to work, Pat met returning Jarvis

teachers at the front entrance, with her sign:

“Welcome Back! You’re Still The Best!”.

The incident’s impact is revealed in a card Pat

received from the Principal.

Dear Pat,

I would like to thank you personally

for yesterday’s sign at the front door.

It did a great deal for my moral and I

know what it did for the teachers. The

Publicity in the papers also reflected

the spirit within the school of which I

am very proud.

Yours most sincerely,

A. Shilton

Eccentricites aside, Pat has been one of Jarvis’

most outstanding English students. Recently a short

story of hers, Ado-Less-Sense has been published

(This story can also be found on page 68.). As a

Theatre Arts student, Pat won the Jarvis Bruce

Vance Theatre Arts prize, for the highest Grade

Twelve mark. Pat is also responsible for the ’77

Magnet’s Arts and Letters section and more.

In all, Patricia E. Orr has contributed much at

Jarvis and hence this tribute to her.

EVERYONE’S DESIRE

’ We see an image of her,

A goddess, forming silhouettes

with the shadowy moon.

She is the temptress of everyone’s desire,

Holding our dreams and ideals,

Promising her one note tune.

We must never come too close,

to approach would be an intrusion,

We must be content -

she dangles our dreams before our eyes,

From her own self made seclusion.

She is, as far as I can tell

Only an illusion.

MY DREAM

I once had a dream

a hero I was to be.

I dreamed and dreamed

until this dream was reality.

I floated across the earth

believing eyes were upon me.

I did not realize that

these eyes could not see.

They were clouded by

images they could not obtain

And beyond I could see

that only sorrow would reign

I cried for these people

I wished they could see.

I did not realize

These people were me.

ROSE

}

f

Yes, you began a tender rose

Perfect fragility, a gentle bush of innocence

Precious petals beckoning lovers near

And, when they glanced down

Clear, soft eyes and an honest heart gazed up

And touched their souls with love.

People flocked to see that rose

Till, full of yourself, you swelled and bloomed

Gaudy red, withering brown, falling dead

Leaving only a thorny stem beneath

Forbidding and forgotten, forever.

Falling glory, trailing tears

Like a flaming meteor plunging into barren ground

Your eyes filling with fear, you swing your head

Like an abandoned babe, till you crumple in despair

An alien, alone, save for vicious Memory

And the corpse of foolish Pride

Then, in the shiver of Spring, a timorous bud.

Meekly seeking one ray of sunlight, surfaces.

A pale rose, nestled behind a veil of ferns.

REQUIEM FOR A REVOLUTIONARY

Never again will he shout defiantly

at a barricade of lies

that at once protect and imprison

those who have built it.

The flags and books that inflamed

a young heart and mind

still plead from their shelf,

but their former mind no longer

listens or cannot hear.

Injustice and criminal conformity

have taken on a yellow hue,

like a fading photograph of

half remembered figures.

A pin-striped straight jacket

now holds the once free mind

that dared to ask “why?” of people

who could not begin to answer.

My mind now drives the nails

into his coffin but,

there will never be a grave

for this dead revolutionary,

as his body is no longer his.

He didn’t harm “you and I”.

“They” say its for the benefit of the

“They” inject him with diseases

that have no cures and watch

Administration

Every morning all the students of Jarvis cheerfully

await the mellow yet stirring tones of the reading of

the announcements. Each student breathlessly sits on

the edge of his seat listening to the reams of information

coming at him, waiting for the one that

may influence the rest of his life. After these inspiring

gems of wisdom, everyone in the school is

invited to stand for the National Anthem, “The

Queen,” as it is affectionately called. In any event, a

cross-section of the more important announcements

may run like this:

“Tonight’s meeting of the Malaysian-Hungarian

Bible Study group has been cancelled, as no

Malaysian-Hungarians have been found.”

the Theatre Arts students go. Yet there is no mystery

The English teachers at Jarvis are

concerned that our students develop their

and through reading and the study of

literature; to share the experiences, [

thoughts and perceptions of outstanding I

writers, both contemporary and classical.

From Grades 9 to 13, the study of

^

English

Ever wonder what the English Department at

Jarvis is like? We took a few common questions that

were asked by students in grades Nine to Thirteen

and passed them on to the English Department.

Q: How effective can the writing of essays be?

A: Writing essays can improve a student’s language

ability. Average students are urged to do more essays

in order to improve writing skills.

Q: What are the developments in poetry?

A: In Grade 9, Poetry is of the narrative style. In

Grade 10, it becomes mostly lyrical, 20th century

poetry. The Grade XI course includes an introduction

to early poetry, mainly from the 15th to

17th centuries. In Grade XII, there are two choices:

One can study modern Canadian poetry, while a

second option offers lyrical poetry with a stress on

the basics of poetry. In Grade XIII, a more advanced

study of 16th century and modern poetry is offered

U to the student.

I Q: What special help is given to people with language

: difficulties?

• A: Mrs. Cooper helps those with such problems in

English, after regular classes.

Q: How do you choose the novels to be read?

A: They are those which are recommended by the

Board. The criterion in them for which we look is

that of an educational theme or moral, to work from.

Q: When should the skills of basic grammar be

achieved?

A: By the end of Grade XI. Such skills are important

because Grammatical errors cause heavy marks

losses.

Mathematics

To the poor bewildered student who is continually

confronted with a never ending stream of paper that

has built his math notes into an ever growing pile, the

virtue of the math department is not readily apparent.

As they carry their piles of paper to and fro

the excellence becomes even less apparent. The triple

math students standing atop their math notes, trying

to pick out the C.N. Tower and contemplating the

fatal jump might differ in opinion, but freed from

the perpetual tedium of doing a “day to day’’ job

most of the students agree that Jarvis has an excellent

math department.

The success of Jarvis students in math contests and

in universities is evidence in support of the statement.

From going to classes and doing the “labs” the effort

that has gone into making the math course is easily

seen. Using the “lab” system the department has

made the course fluid so that all the material given to

the students is constantly being improved and altered

to meet the changing requirements of universities and

the outside world. All of the math teachers are highly

qualified therefore have necessary knowledge to

form a course.

Math is certainly one of the most important

subjects a student can take in high school, even if you

are not going to go into math later on because doing

structured and organized work helps greatly in

personal development. The department seems to

have a sense of the importance in this aspect.

i

u

The goals of the mathematics department

is to send out into society at the end

of grade thirteen, a person who has

developed a strong sense of personal

discipline towards his responsibilities.

This discipline reflects itself in most other

aspects of life. The size of this objective

can really only be realized by looking at

the innumcrate illiterate and sometimes

unruly students that enter grade nine and

compare them with students leaving at the

end of grade thirteen. Fortunately Mother

Nature is on our side and gives us a bit of

assistance.

Walter W. Howard,

M.A.Sc., P. Eng.

Head of Mathematics

The goal of the Physics Department is

to provide, through a study of scientific

fundamentals, an awareness that will be

Physics

The policy of the Jarvis physics department is to

encourage and refine the student’s techniques with

which he perceives the world. While this may not be a

unique ideal, it is certainly justified. At present,

Jarvis is one of only two schools in Toronto whose

Grade 13 program is seven periods per week.

This extra time is put to good use in labs to

determine such things as the wavelength of blue light

or the mass of an electron and its charge. I, for one,

find it fascinating to repeat famous fundamental

experiments upon which all of today’s (and

tomorrow’s) technology is based.

My greatest criticism of the physics 13 program lies

in the fact that they have too big a job to do, too

large an area to cover. In preparing for university,

the student becomes exposed to a great deal of condensed

information. Much of what he encounters is

simplistic. The ramifications of which are not fully

explained and can be frustrating. While the ideal

physics student must possess an inquiring practical

mind with an attention for detail, he is often left on

his own to make evaluations on various concepts that

fit into the perception of the world. A greater

identification between course material and related

applications in class could only help to create an even

more progressive physics program.

Chemistry f

i

The Jarvis Chemistry Department consisting of

Mr. Whitney, Mr. Wright, Miss Bhatia, Miss

Turnbull, and Mrs. Semenovs, slave to drive the

fundamentals of chemistry into their students.

Despite the small size of the department (all but

Mr. Wright are with chemistry halftime) they

manage to teach some 400 students a year.

In deciding the chemistry course outlines three

objectives are kept in mind: to give a sound base in

the fundamentals of chemistry, to keep a large

section of the course related to experimental lab

work and to prepare students for university.

In grade twelve, students are introduced to the

basics of chemistry. They learn the names of the

elements, basic theories, lab procedure and

perform basic experiments.

Come grade thirteen, students use their

knowledge of chemistry and the lab is even put to

futher use. With this more extensive lab work, and

the basic theories learned in grade twelve are

studied more intensively. In the end the student is

prepared for university.

Biology

The grade 13 biology course at Jarvis is based

on certain premises: first, that the students taking

the grade 13 course will go to university; and

second, that some will continue in Bioscience, and

some will not. The course then must be broad

enough in content to provide basic background

knowledge, yet must be sufficiently specific to

captivate the potential specialists.

This year’s course is taught by: Mr. Bharat

Mathoo; honors B.Sc. in physiology from

Waterloo; Mr. Nick Loberts; B.Sc. in physiology

and biochemistry from U. to T.; It is designed to

establish work habits, develop problem-solving

skills, and to make the transition from the high

school question-and-answer method of education,

to that of the university lecture. The year begins

with common sense, ecology, and the origin of

life, moves into abstract to molecules, membranes,

and reproduction, and ends with openended,

self-designed labs.

The philosophy of the Biology Department is

that science has a dual role to play in the life of its

student, it provides knowledge from the study of

life itself, and it teaches communication by

teaching in precise and concise expression.

History

l am writing this article at 3:00 in the morning. My

mind is a blank. I am suffering from acute insomnia.

Across the road the ducks in High Park are honking

so loud. I cannot concentrate.

All of this has nothing to do with the History

Department. It is intended as a forewarning for the

reader, in order to explain why this article may seem

rather derisive, critical, sarcastic or even nasty at

times.

So much for length introductions. I have no

complaints about the History Department. I enjoy

studying ancient civilizations, old kings, queens, the

historic background to our present state of affairs. 1

also, find it fascinating studying (history’s famous)

men, who by power of character, have changed

certain circumstances to meet some magnificant end.

I see the History Department composed of men and

women who are intelligent, interesting and genuinely

concerned about their students welfare. Unfortunately,

not everyone shares my opinion .. .

Part of the fault lies with the very subject itself. It

is hard to give a damn about events one hundred, five

hundred years in the primitive past. As the history

course proceeds from memorizing names and dates

to explaining why something happened, a lot of

students just give up all together. They cannot explain

why they are taking history, let alone explain

why certain events occured. Even though I am

ususally quite enthusiastic, I remember days when I

have been lulled to sleep by the sound of my teacher’s “It is not my place to define the

voice.

Geography

While searching through the haystack to find a

student consenus of the Georgraphy program, I have

found that students who do take Geography, truly

appreciate the department. It has virtually something

to offer any student who is interested in the interrelationships

between man and his environment.

This interrelation can be found in Grade Nine on a

broad scale, where man’s adaptiveness is studied

under various conditions around the world in such

countries as India, the Netherlands, Norway, and the

USSR. The same idea is carried on into the next year,

when there is a focus on the geography of Canada.

There is a strong emphasis on developing analytical

techniques.

The following year, the course delves into the

Earth Science aspect of Geography. It is a specially

enriched year, highlighted by a week’s stay at the

Boyne River Natural Science School were students

are able to “put theory into practice.”

Year Four offers an enriched level which takes a

close look at man’s self-made environment, Urban

Geography.

The final year of the program is intended to call

upon a geography student’s accumulated knowledge.

The emphasis is upon the individual’s learning to use

his own skills of geographical analysis in the study of

key aspects of, and the relationships between, the

physical and economic geographies of Canada.

Ever since man first inhabited the

planet Earth he has been interested in

places. This interest and curiosity of the

world around him has created an obvious

need for geographical studies. Geography

is simply just not the study of reality and

phenomena on the Earth’s surface.

Regional geography, as studied in grade

IX and X, allows the student to develop a

coherent picture of a real place on the

Earth’s surface — a region. The student

utilizes the knowledge and techniques of

all the other academic disciplines of that

place or region. No other discipline allows

for this totality of study.

but this

Jarvis Collegiate is an academic school

that there is all work and no play. We

doesn’t mean

have music, sports, clubs, and, of course, art. The

Art Department is not large but it is discovering and

producing many artistically talented people.

Those who don’t become involved with the Art

Department don’t know what they are missing.

Behind the doors of rooms 413 and 513, there is a

subject which requires imagination, flair, patience,

and for some students, great sums of money (for art

supplies, of course). The atmosphere is relaxed and

the classes are free and always on the move.

Artists are unique individuals with a special flair

and attitude for life and the environment, striving to

find their identity and their innerselves with the many

interesting and creatively designed assignments given

by the teachers. Many times when the assignment is

not so interesting, each individual must strive to

make it more meaningful. This may be one of the

major problems which faces the students; taking an

ordinary topic and changing it into something

colorful and imaginative. Because of the manytalented,

hardworking students and art teachers at

Jarvis, the Art Department will always produce many

well-trained and disciplined art students; or shall I

say “artists”.

Moderns

The Jarvis moderns department offers three

languages: French, German and Spanish. French is

compulsory in grade nine only. Due to this many

people drop the subject after the first year, German

and Spanish are offered beginning in grade eleven.

This year French teachers are faced with a serious

problem, as in other years grades twelve and thirteen

are years in which fluency should be achieved;

however because of the size of classes students do not

get a chance to speak as much as they should. Since

the number of students fluctuates from year to year it

is difficult to guage how many classes will be needed

and the result can be overpopulated classes. Mr.

Humphries, the head of the French Department,

believes that french will begin a tremendous upswing

in the years to come, perhaps this is the reason for

increased grade thirteen enrollment.

The University of Toronto is considering making a

second language a prerequisite for entrance into a

general arts programme, also the government has

announced its intention to channel the funds which

were being devoted to the teaching of french in the

civil service into the teaching of french in the schools.

Although the number of french students are low

compared to those of past years, it is possible that

languages will gain importance in the future.

■:

The aim of a modern language course must

be to enable a student to express himself

orally. But you don’t build a house without

tools and a fair amount of experience using

them. The “tools" of language are the

structures and vocabulary taught day after

day. The "experience" which ideally would

be gained in a French, German or Spanish

environment, has to artificially be created in

the restricted classroom situation. It takes the

form of exercises and reading. Hopefully,

there is also time for a simulation of the real

thing through dialogues, discussions and even

conversation. But languages need “field

work” to bring them to life. We believe that

when students finally get a chance to travel,

they will discover that all that classroom

work really was pretty fair preparation under

the circumstances for the most demanding of

all our skills: effective communication.

■The Music Department is divided into three sections;

band, strings and vocal. The strings

programme is geared to the beginner and the

rudiments of music: sight-reading and technical

ability, are introduced. Technical studies, new

fingerings, positions and bowing techniques are

taught and practised. Students progress from the

Junior Orchestra to the Senior Orchestra as they

become more proficient on their instrument.

First year vocal students start with the fundamental

techniques of voice production and -----

build on to this during the year through unison

and four parts, S. A.T.B. music. Sight-reading and

rhythm work are very important. All students are

encouraged to join the Junior Choir and the

Intermediate and Senior Choirs in later years.

In the first year band programme each student

is assigned an instrument and the basic playing

skills are integrated with instrument care and

band room procedure. Students are assigned

senior students who help them to learn more

about their specific instrument. During the band

students’ career they become part of the Junior,

Intermediate and sometimes the Concert and

Stage Bands.

The fifth year course gives the students a general

music background including its relation to the Arts.

Each student must maintain a high level of performance

throughout the year through individual

work and participation in ensembles. Units may be

selected from any of the following areas: ear

training, harmony, history, orchestration, criticism

of music, conducting, elementary composition,

aesthetics and philosophy of music. Secondary instruments

are also studied to give the student a

broader knowledge of all aspects of music.

Classics

Classics is the smallest of all the departments

at Jarvis. It has only two teachers: Mr. Payne

and Mrs. Hefter. Mrs. Hefter has the harrowing

task of teaching grade 10 Latin. She loses her

temper and her hair most often with this grade.

She also teachers grade 11 Latin and Special

English. Mr. Payne teaches the grade 9 Classical

Civilization, grade 10, 11, 12 and 13 Latin and all

levels of Greek.

Classical Civilization is designed as an introduction

to the Classics. Students read

selections of Greek and Roman literature

(translated of course!) and become so fascinated

that they want to go on. The small number who

do continue learn a good many inside jokes and

more ancient literature than the high school

student in the city.

The Classics Department is a true anachronism

in its toughness, in its eccentricity, in its increasingly

personal relationships which are built

up between student and teacher, and in the

languages themselves. Enrollment reflects this,

most Jarvis students do not have time for dead

languages. Yet there is always a handful of people

who study Latin until the end of grade thirteen,

and even a smaller group who study Greek.

Why do they do it? — Why not? After all

“Birds do it

Bees do it..

The Classics department offers

Classical Civilizations to grade 9, Latin to

grades 10-13. The study of antiquity is

often considered "impractical" in our

pragmatic age, but, as was pointed out to

me at parents’ night this year, there is still

a great yearning for imagination,

mythology, philosophy, history etc.

mixed with a structured approach to

learning. Classical studies still do this.

The girls’ athletic program this year has been

spirit was high. The year started badly with a

poor turnout for interform field hockey. However,

the interschool team overrode the apathy with its

best record ever. With the opening of basketball

season, participation increased and although the

games were scrappy at times, the main goal, fun,

was reached. The interform basketball team kept

up its loosing reputation, but a good base has

been set for next year.

This year’s swim team did well. Several girls

went to the City Finals. The team came 5th in the

City Final Meet. Cross-country had a good year,

with a few girls doing well enough to go to the all-

Ontario’s.

The most successful event, so far, was the mixed

Craigie D. McQueen. B.A.. B.Ed.,

Head of Girls' Phys. Ed.


Boys' Phys. Ed.

When a student takes Physical Education at

Jarvis in Grades 9 and 10, he is given a structured

program in which every class and session

has already been planned prior to the start of the

year. This is done primarily to give the students

substance but equally as important discipline.

By the time that the student has reached Grades 11

and 12, he or she has matured enough that an optional

co-educational program replaces the preceding

structured program. Such programs as archery,

karate, yoga and orienteering offer the student a

wide variety of choice in the physical aspect of the

course. In the Health Education aspect,

programs like Life Styles, Embryology and Genetics

are offered. Every program offered in both the

Physical and Health Education course is orientated

towards the achievement of fitness, both of the body

and of the mind.

Eventually, Physical Education, like Math and

English, will be compulsory from Grades 9-12.

Another important change that will take place in

the near future will be the inclusion of a

specialized study of Physical and Health

Education in Grade 13. This course would greatly

benefit those students who have expressed an

interest in Physical Education or Medicine for

their post-secondary studies.

The stress is on fitness, with the endproduct

being good health. Over the past

ten years, the Physical and Health

Education program has become more

varied and interesting. A greater stress has

been placed on the individual activity, e.g.

Karate, badminton etc.; with emphasis on

the fitness value, and team game involving

large numbers of persons with a

small per capital cost. The program has as

always been limited by the number and

type of facility, and the monies required

to supply good equipment for an everexpanding

program.

Library

Our library has grown considerably this school

year. We’ve added over 1,000 books to last years

total of more than 14,000 bringing the total to

16,000. Thus, I would say that if you were in need of

a book you would have a good chance of finding it in

our library.

As well as the books, the vertical files are well

stocked and are quite helpful when it comes time to

write an essay on one topic or another. We have

subscriptions to many different magazines as well as

the Toronto newspapers, so there is no lack of

“light” reading.

The library seems to serve two main purposes.

First, it is where we go for supplementary reading

material, to find books for projects and essays and to

work and study. If none of these seem to appeal to

you at the moment, the library is also the place to

gather for all the new gossip, when you’ve got no

where else to go and nothing else to do. If you can’t

find your friends at their lockers during a spare or

something you have a good chance of finding them

here.

Mr. Swartz and the rest of the library staff are

always willing to help us when we need it. I would

like to thank them for all they do for us and to let

them know that we appreciate it.

Guidance

The Guidance Department at Jarvis consists of six

full-time counsellors; Mr. Burgess, the Department

head, Miss Istephan (a welcome addition), Mr.

MacAlpine, the Assistant Head, Mr. MacMahon,

Mr. Medland, and Mr. Pasloske. This gives Jarvis

one of the best counsellor-student ratios in Toronto.

The Guidance Department deals with timebable

changes, option sheets, scholarships and bursaries,

night school and correspondence course applications,

telephone calls to parents or employers, interest tests,

career information, student Guidance Information

Services, college and university admission

requirements, tours, and applications.

The Department is also involved with teacherstudent

conflicts, dropping subjects, and transfers to

other schools. Every year, it gets busier and busier as

more people drop in with their problems. If you’re

having trouble with something or someone, why

don’t YOU make an appointment? They’d be happy

to help you — it’s their job and they’re good at it.

The Guidance Department at Jarvis is

essentially a service for students. Our

success is mainly measured by the number

of students who come in our door

voluntarily to seek some kind of information,

advice or help and leave with

some degree of satisfaction.

We are assisted in our information

function by a miniature library and

reading room of career and further

education material as well as by access to

the computerized Student Guidance

Information Service which supplies

similar material in voluminous quantities

at the drop of a card. Our greatest asset,

however, is our staff of highly qualified

counsellors who always have a ready

sympathetic ear and a fund of experience

and knowledge to share.

M.R. Pearl

Marvin Pearl teaches Physical Education at Jarvis

during both day and night school. As a teacher, his

involvement in school life just begins.

Though a little guy, Mr. Pearl coached the Boy’s

Cross-Country team, all 66 of them, to an overall

championship. This year climaxed an extensive

recruiting program of Jarvis potential. He also

coached the Senior Boys’ Basketball team to a

respectable season.

Mr. Pearl is a great organizer. Give him an event

and he will organize it. Mr. Pearl was the chief coordinator

of the first Dr. Pepper “Tip Off” Tourney

as well as our own eleventh annual Jarvis Invitational

Basketball Tournament in which Lutheran

of Long Island were our guests. He was also involved

in the Metro All-Star game and Basketball Clinic.

Even in the off season, Mr. Pearl is involved in

numerous spring and summer basketball tournaments

as well as Sports Canada during the

Canadian National Exhibition.

Marvin Pearl’s contribution to Jarvis life is more

than just that of a teacher. Though he is small in

published in 1982, coincident with Jarvis’s one

hundred and seventy-fifth anniversary. Before then,

he plans to take a years leave of absence to put the

book together. In the process of researching his book

he has become the school’s archives curator.

BOYS' SPORTS =

Football

The ultimate goal, to win the T.S.S.A.A. football ”

championship, had been achieved. But that was last /

year and, as much of the championship team had

graduated, to equal that feat in ’76 would be a tough

task. However we did manage to end our season in

the semi-finals against Oakwood (who went on to

win the Senior B Championship.)

An opening 15-13 victory over Oakwood was

reversed by the T.S.S.A.A. board because of the use

of an ineligible player; a fact of which neither the

team nor Coach Shepherd were aware. This put

:

aside, the team quickly recovered with decisive

victories over West Toronto, Monarch Park and

Parkdale. In the last game of the regular season

Jarvis came from a 13 point deficit to a 22-22 draw

with the Harbord Tigers.

{ Having finished third Jarvis once again encountered

Oakwood. After falling behind by 15

points within the first five minutes, we were unable to

regain our composure and win.

Though the season was not victorious all the

players will agree that it was exceptionally enjoyable.

Special mention should go to Doug Emerson, Peter

Reynolds, Roman Kupa and Wally Chan for their

great efforts.

George Shepherd and Dennis Munn are to be

commended for their coaching, with 10 wins, 2 losses

and 1 tie, since the B divison was formed. Although

r

the last two seasons have been successful, a larger

Volleyball

Volleyball was at its best this year. Under the

coaching of Mr. Cooper and Mr. Wright, Jarvis

placed third in the city with a record of 9-2, a

standing never before achieved by any Bulldog

Volleyball team.

The first game, a decisive 3-1 victory over Harbord,

marked the beginning of the team’s success.

Jarvis then beat Monarch Park and defending

champions, Oakwood, only to lose to Harbord

before pre-alinement.

Jarvis entered into “B” Division and defeated

Danforth and Malvern to advance to the semi-finals.

Here the season ended as we lost a hard fought match

to Humberside.

Powerhouse spikers Camille Almasy and Tony

Ning, setters Juan Yjo and Lester Nip and captain

James Beerly along with the rest of the team should

be congratulated on their victorious season!

Volleyball is the ultimate sport! It is

one of the few in our system that is based

totally on team cooperation, there are no

stars and there are no losers. “The team is

everything" is the spirit that I am trying

to produce in my coaching. I think I came

close this year. The members of the team

cooperated entirely with the coaches and

fellow team members.

We advanced further than ever before

and got into the semi-finals. The members

of the team, Mr. Wright and myself all

Tennis

This past season the boy’s tennis team once again

was successful in their bid to capture the T.S.S.A.A.

team championships. Jarvis defeated a strong

Lawrence Park team in a hard fought final which

went to the wire with Jarvis winning a one set tie

breaker by six games to four.

The team extends special thanks to their coach

Dave Bastedo, whose inspiration was greatly needed

during those tight matches.

The Jarvis team went through the entire season

without suffering a single defeat. The team members

must be congratulated on continuing the fine

tradition they have helped to create at Jarvis. This

year’s team consisted of: Kyle Langill, Henry Cole,

Chris Berns, Ross and Earle McMaster, Gary Stein,

Cory Mandel, Gordon Ng and John Robertson.

Along with winning the team championships

Henry Cole and Chris Berns also won the T.S.S.A.A.

doubles championship which qualified them for the

O.F.S.A.A doubles finals and came through as true

representatives of J.C.I.

The year started as well as it had ended: With a

fine effort at the York University Invitational. David

Zapparoli placed 10th, Alfie Grimbleby 65th and

Bob Sora 92nd in their respective groups, out of

some 300 runners. The T.S.S.A.A. Invitational also

proved rewarding with Joe Zapparoli’s 26th placing

in the midgets and Charles Gardner’s 11th in the

juniors. The seniors finished third, due in part to

Alfie Grimbleby placing 19th in the senior race.

At High Park in the T.S.S.A.A. Championship the

Midgets came in third with Jay Taylor’s 3rd, whose

time of 12:02 was a new Jarvis record. Joe Zapparoli,

Mike Dunston and Mike Rodgers all finished in the

top twenty-five.

The Juniors finished 2nd with Charles Gardner,

Peter Freeman, Alfie Grimbleby and Paul Santamaura

all placing in the top 25.

The seniors, fielding probably the best collection

of seniors in T.S.S.A.A. history, swept to 1st and

3rd, “A” and “B” team finishing, accumulating an

unprecedented 11 points and thus capturing the

overall city championship along with the senior title.

Dave Zapparoli placed 2nd, becoming the first Jarvis


The key to this year’s success was the

emphasis placed on the younger runners

I of the team. While the older, more ex-

1 perienced runners were usually left to

carry-out their own training program,

Mr. Pearl gave the midget runners

carefully constructed workouts of just the

right intensity to gradually build their

conditioning without discouraging them.

Variety was the essential ingredient in

their workouts, which varied from short,

all-out sprints to hill climbing or long runs

that lasted from half an hour to an hour.

In competition the stress is placed on

fun before all else; therefore, par-

;| ticipation becomes an enjoyable exk£

A perience for each athlete.

Swimming

This year in the Marlin pool a new sense of

determination, effort, and enthusiasm helped to

form a swim team the likes of which has not been

seen at Jarvis for many years. The 46-member team

turned what was supposed to be a rebuilding season

into a second place finish overall at the Toronto

Team Finals. Much of the credit for the team’s

success must go to Coach Ralph Mutton who handled

the team’s conditioning every weekday morning

at 7:30 a.m. with practices that always had some new

twist to them.

The Bantam, Junior, and Senior teams from Jarvis

all won five of their six qualifying meets during the

season, which meant that all three teams qualified for

the Toronto team finals at Castle Frank High School,

a feat which only ourselves and North Toronto C.I.

can claim.

At the team finals, the Jarvis Bantam team won

the Bantam Team Trophy, while the Junior and

Senior teams place fourth in their respective

divisions. Don Dixon won all three races at the individual

Final, setting records in each.Don is the best

swimmer to come to Jarvis in its history, and we wish

him luck in his future swimming career.

antam Basketball

If basketball games were longer than four quarters,

this year’s Bantam Basketball team would have

gone undefeated. They had a tendency of storming

back after allowing the opposition to build a large

lead in the first half. Time would sometimes run out

but the games would have an exciting ending. Like

most young teams, they made their share of mistakes

but they learned from them.

The team had an overall record of 8 wins and 9

losses during the year. A 4-6 pre-season record and a

2-1 showing at the MacDonald Invitational were very

encouraging signs. In the City tournament, our

official season, the team advanced to the semi-finals

in the consolation round only to lose a close game to

Malvern.

Although we did not win the championship, we

had a lot of fun, individually and as a team. With

potential stars like Steve Myers, Grant Gilmour, Bob

Sora and Mazvita Maraera, Jarvis will one day

capture a basketball championship.

A special thanks must go to the coaches; Nick

Loberto, Lloyd Martin and Joe Cara, who along

with the team, who came at 7:30 in the morning,

three times a week, to practice.

Junior Basketball

Once again this year’s Junior Basketball team

showed that Jarvis belongs among the premier

------ M schools in the city.

A 5-4 tournament record in three invitationals and

an 8-1 record in pre-season competition was a

promising start. A 6-0 record in regional play subsequently

placed Jarvis in “A” division. A 4-2

reallignment record preceeded the playoffs with

Jarvis ranked second in the city behind Oakwood.

Gutsy defense and flawless shooting led Jarvis to a

63-27 victory over Western Tech before bowing out

51-42 to the high spirited Raiders of Riverdale in the

semi-finals.

A season record of 20-5 (3 losses to the eventual

J champions, Oakwood) shows the tremendous effort

put out by the players and especially by Mr.

Nicholson to make this a most enjoyable and successful

season. A special thanks must go to all the

Jarvisites who supported our quest for the championship.

With the emergence of players such as

Mike Toliver, Andrew Bodkyn and Mike Maese,

Jarvis has the potential to achieve this quest.

.l4k: K

Junior Basketball provides a fast and

physically demanding game from each

player. Early skills and techniques learned

during the Bantam year arc brought to a

higher level. Physical fitness and endurance is

stressed and are a part of each practice held

every day after school.

Various defences and offences are employed

in each game after experimenting in

practice. Only through proper preparation

can each player participate on a high level.

Full development is not reached until the

players have worked together for a full

season. It’s a team sport!

Senior Basketball

The Jarvis Senior Basketball team did not win

the championship, but they did show that they

could have as they beat Eastern Commerce two

out of three times.

Despite a 7-10 record in exhibition play, Jarvis

did win the Dr. Pepper “Tip Off” Tourney

consolation championship. But in the Jarvis and

Scarborough Invitationals, our performance was

disappointing due to other problems. In league

competition, Jarvis had an overall record of 9-5,

reaching the quarter-finals. Two important games

were lost in overtime: the first, a sudden-death

loss to Monarch by six points sent us to “B”

division while a close 60-58 loss to Bloor in the

playoffs ended our season.

But despite the outcome and a seemingly long

list of injuries, we had a great time both individually

and as a team. Ray Wong and Roy

Dobrejvic were standouts along with co-captains

Jim Evans and Joe Cara. With Mike Wong and

Kevin O’Neall and the graduating juniors, Jarvis

has a fine nucleus of players. A special thanks

must go to coach Pearl, whose strategy often was

the deciding factor, and to our loyal fans who

supported our team.

Wrestling

Wrestling was sort of low key this year for a

number of reasons and thus the team did not participate

in the league schedule. This was primarily a

rebuilding year for the Jarvis Wrestling team. In spite

of this rebuilding program, a number of spirited

scrimmages were held with other schools as well as a

few exhibition meets.

In the T.S.S.A.A. finals, Jarvis placed a very

commendable fourth out of eleven schools in the

city. Trevor Reid (106) and Jeremy Fowlie (157) won

city championships for Jarvis. Lon Appleby (82) and

Geof Liddon (136) placed second in their respective

weight divisions. Third and Fourth place finishings

went to Tim Scott (82), Danny Andru (115), Robin

Young (136) and Steve Shanahan who fought in the

unlimited weight category. Included as victorious are

also those who did not win but tried!

Twenty-six students from all grade levels participated

this year and those returning are eagerly

looking forward to improving the team’s standing

next year. With coach Munn and this enthusiasm,

Jarvis has the potential for an overall championship.

Hockey

After getting off to a slow start the Bulldogs,

through hard work, pulled together and accomplished

their main goal of making the F:

playoffs. A narrow defeat in the quarter finals \<

concluded a long but successful season for Jarvis

Hockey.

^

For many team members the season began in

early November with an exercise program con- .

sisting basically of running and weight training. In ]

December, the weekly early morning practises j

began. However a disappointing first half of the

season resulted in the team’s placement in “B”

Division after realignment of teams.

t

At this point the Bulldogs began to roll. Hard

work and a little luck was now combining for

frequent Jarvis victories. Extra-early morning

practices and extra effort resulted in the Jarvis

team Finishing second in their division and just

making the quarter finals.

In their final game the Jarvis team fought

valiantly, but were eventually defeated 3-2 by the

first place, “A” Division, Malvern team.

The play of captain, Tom MacCarthy and

assistant captains Wally Chan, Gerry Gillan and

Peter Reynolds were instrumental in the team’s

success this season.

All team members played well and put forth a

: great team effort. Special thanks to the regular

; fans, and of course credit must go to Coach Don

Bell who showed expertise in molding his fine

team.


Preparation for hockey season

commences in November.

The early morning practices consisted

of stickhandling, endurance

drills and shooting, with emphasis on

skating. An Instructor was brought in

for thegoaltendcrs.

On the morning of a game, the team

would go in for a “chalk talk". Jarvis

often showed its adaptibility by

changing its style for various teams.

Mr. Bell always demonstrated a

level-headed attitude with his team

w hich his players greatly appreciated.

GIRLS' SPORTS

Cheerleading

The Cheerleading team under the direction of Miss

Eberhard commenced Senior try-outs in September

and the new squad was increased to nine girls The

Junior squad was formed later and we then had full

support for the Varsity Football team.

As the season progressed so did the squads and the

day of the big event dawned . . . VARSITY. The

play-off between two top football teams and the

competition for the best cheeleading squad in

Toronto with honours for the latter going to

Monarch Park. Our “Miss Cheerleader’’ '--V

representative was Peggi Dineen.

After football the long break until Basketball.

Although the warm gym was promising the long EsaJI

break overpowered some of our Senior squad. The

Basketball season for cheerleaders ended with five

Seniors cheering in the quarter-finals.

Our thanks to the Varsity Football team and the

Senior Basketball team for providing us with many

exciting games to cheer. Most of all our gratitude to

all Senior and Junior cheerleader participants and to

Miss Eberhard who makes it all possible.

Girls' Tennis p

The Jarvis tennis team had an excellent season.

Even though we did not reach the finals, Jarvis

showed an excellent show of interest in the girls this

year, the school chose some very fine players. The

\

Mary Jo Eustace

Marg Polanyi

Sheila Rider

The back-up team consisted of Martha Digby, Shelly

Appleby, Jillian Verspyck and Cathie Masterson.

Our first meet of the season was against Humberside

where, fighting gale force gust of winds, as

well as the opposing team, we drew a 2-2 score.

Thanks goes to Sabine, Heidi and Debbie who

mastered very difficult conditions to bring home the

two points.

The match against Western Tech was rained out

twice, just as we stepped on court. Finally, on the

third attempt we easily defeated their team 3 to 1.

After this promising start to the season, unfortunately

we lost our next three games, 3-1 against

Oakwood, 3-1 against Malvern and 4-0 to Forest

Hill, eventual winners of the league.

The team worked very hard in practices, turning

out regularly in the unseasonably cold weather. They

showed great promise for the future as most of them

are in junior grades and should be available for

several more seasons.

Girls'

Cross-Country

The girls’ cross-country team followed its usual

tradition of having a great time, combined with hard

work and improvement this season.

This year we had a group of very determined runnees.

Almost everyone made it to the regular workouts, even

in the early moring weight-training sessions and interval

runs. We used Allen Gardens as our short course and

Riverdale as our long run, with the hills and dales of the

neighbourhood streets, parks and ravines for changes of

scene.

We even ran a course in High Park on several occasions

prior to the Finals. This same course almost

killed our puffing coach who was reduced to standing

on the top of the steps shouting comments on technique

and notes of encouragement, e.g. “Just a couple of

more times around. I’ll see you at the top”.

The City Finals proved that our efforts had been !"• ..

worthwhile. Arlene Williams took a bronze for the

Intermediate Division; Laura Labonte-Smith placed 7th

in the Seniors; and Leslie Lester placed 8th in the • ...

Midget. All were able to compete in the OFFSA.

Overall, Midget placed 4th, Juniors 5th, and Seniors

3rd. Jarvis has gained a reputation for being one of the

best cross-country schools and this year we maintained

this reputation by placing 2nd overall in the city.

The season ended with a smashing party combining

the boys’ and girls’ teams with the girls’ swim team.

There was a fantastic dinner, followed by basketball

1 and volleyball games, swimming and diving, with a

dance to end the evening.

“All work and no play, make sport dull work!” Join

us next year for a pleasant mixture.

Cross-country runners are unique; you

What sets them apart from other

For cross-country running is not

only a battle against other competitors,

but a battle against nature and a battle

against your desire to quit.

To the girls who ran that final course in

High Park and all that trained with them,

my hat tips off to you. And to those who

think they might try cross-country next

year, we do believe all work and no play

detracts from our personalities so we fit in

Swimming

This year, there was a decrease in the numbers on

the Girls’ Swim Team, but there was not a decrease in

enthusiasm. Because of the smaller number, Jarvis

swam in the Mixed Varsity Meets and competed with

similar teams from Forest Hill Monarch Park

Northern Secondary and Oakwood. Jarvis lost only

to Northern Secondary in their division meets.

As Jarvis came second in these league meets, the

team went on to compete in the City Team Finals. In

these Finals, Jarvis missed placing 4th by only half a

point. Individually, we had five firsts: Piret Kreem in

the 100 Individual Medley and Alison Beales in the 50

Backstroke. Eleven swimmers placed 2nd, and one

placed 3rd.

In the Varsity One Final Individual Meet, Jarvis

entered a team of five competent individuals: Alison

Beales, Susan Brown, Kim Hare, Piret Kreem and

Mary MacKenzie. We were handicapped because we

could not compete as a full team; however, in these

five individuals, Jarvis had a strong team. This team

placed 2nd in two events, 3rd in three events and 4th

in two events. Kim Hare, a newcomer, placed second

in the 200 Freestyle event, and broke the established

winners’ time.

In the Varsity Two Individual Meet a first year

swimmer, Wendy Jackson, received a sixth place in

the 50 Backstroke event.

Spirits were kept high by Miss McQueen who was

always there with a coaching word of advice.

Special thanks, also, to our capable officials.

We’re number 5! Considering the small size of this

years’ team, we all came out well and had lots of wet

fun doing it!!!

Field Hockey

The girls’ field hockey team finally got their machine

rolling in ’76. Our entire season went very smoothly and

quite successfully. The whole team this year performed

as one unit. Our thanks go to “Misko Duck” for her

coaching and her encouragement when we needed it.

The season was somewhat the same as usual, except

that rather more games were played.

Our first games of the season did not auger well for

the future, seeing as we lost 0-1 against Oakwood and 0-

3 against B.S.S. However, things improved somewhat in

the Sunnybrook Tournament. We played five games in

total with two ties, two losses and one win.

Our goal scorers were Debbie Tile with 3 goals and

Lori Mehew with the same number to her credit.

Although our record at the Tournament was not

exactly brilliant, it should be said that this is the first

time that a Jarvis team won any game at Sunnybrook in

the last three years!

Each year at the Tournament, there are scouts

representing the Ontario Field Hockey Squad. These

scouts choose about 125 girls to attend semi-final

tryouts for the Ontario team. From there 60 are chosen

to tryout at the finals. Then 25 girls are chosen for the

squad.

For the first time this year, Jarvis had two girls

chosen for the tryouts: Ruth Boudreau and Lori

Mehew. They made it all the way to the finals but were

not picked for the squad. Our congratulations go to

these girls and we hope, next year, to be represented in

the Ontario team.

Our thanks for an enjoyable season go to Miss Misko

and Abbie MacLean.

P.S. we beat Cross-Country 1-0!

The team improved tremendously from last

year. The rookies brought us new talent and the

veterans remained skillful. Together they played

several games and stayed on top throughout the

season. The annual Sunnybrooke Tournament

managed to “discover” two of our players as

potential candidates Ruth Boudreau and Lori

Varsity Basketball

It seems like only a few weeks ago that the

basketball tryouts began. The season whizzed by

so fast that it is hard to recall all the great events.

The team this year was comprised of both

veteran players like, Kim Barber, Murph, cocaptains

Anne Goodings and Sue Clarry, Fiona,

Jenny and Barb, and our rookies Erika, Kim

Morin and Patty Thomas. One thing that stands

out in my mind is our one (and only) win. We

defeated Danforth Tech 32 to 4.

With every team there are the coaches giving

their enthusiastic support. We couldn’t have

lasted long without the faithful voice of our coach

Delia Dobson telling us we “really did play well”

even though we were creamed. Another person

who tried desperately to increase our winning streak

was the guard for the senior Boys’ Basketball team —

Jim Evans. Mrs. Burnell our other assistant coach

was a great comfort when we weren’t on one of our

winning streaks.

There is one person who shouldn’t be left out. (

She’s the one who decided to take a nap at centre £

court in the middle of the game, our friend and

team manager Tracey Gilmour.

It was a good season, a lot of laughs, and with a

little luck maybe we’ll do better next year.

This year, the Girls’ Varsity Volleyball Team

started off the season in high spirits. There were over

40 girls who tried out for the team in early December.

By January the final cut had been made and 12

players had been selected. The season began in

January with our opening game against Central

Tech We won the first game easily and lost the

second just as easily. The third game was the close

one. It tested each team’s ability to maintain good

play. Jarvis pulled through.

The succeeding games were against Lawrence Park

Collegiate, Riverdale and Danforth. By the end of

round one, Jarvis was in third place after Riverdale

and Lawrence Park.

In Round Two, we played North Toronto, Northern

and Western Tech. In each match the team could

always win 1 out of the 3 games but could never keep

it together long enough to win the deciding third

game.

Our season ended all too soon and we did not

qualify for the finals. But all was not lost. The team

met for a wild dinner party at the Captain’s palatial

suite.

Next year, we look forward to a better and longer

season. All prospective players are invited to try out

for the team. We hope to see you then.

This year, the girls’ volleyball team

played against Central Tech., Lawrence i

Park, Riverdale, and Danforth in Round

One. At the conclusion of the first round,

Jarvis was tied for second place with

Lawrence Park and Central Tech. In ,!

Round Two, Jarvis played against North •

Toronto, Northern Secondary, and

Western Tech. Unfortunately, we did not

win sufficient number of games to go on

into quarter finals. I commend the team

for their hard work and enthusiasm, and

give a special thanks to Kim Barber, their

team captain and assistant coach.

Grade Nine

Life in Grade Nine makes me want to decline.

Grade Nine has always consisted of people subjected

to ridicule, mental manipulation and disrespect for

their individuality. There are few students or teachers

who do not prejudge us even before we ascent the

great marble staircase, or make our first visit to the

Vice-Principal’s office. As a Grade Nine student I

came to this realization rather early in the year. It

was a strange feeling to experience this as 1 was

warned by others to prepare myself for being referred

to as a number, placed in a rotating file and, rolled [my*—

like Russian Roulette, I would duly appear, noticed

by chance.

That is not to say that I do not enjoy Jarvis as an

academic school nor as a place for acquiring new

friendships and attending a variety of social functions

that were not offered in Public School. For the

first time in my life I have been exposed to an

assortment of ethnic and income groups. And what

could be more impressive to a newcomer than the

sheer size of a Jarvis “Pep” rally?

Now as I reevaluate, the year has slid into a

recognizable form and my hopes are reassured. I

look forward to the next four years with images of

growth and valuable change.

Grade Ten

From the first day of school I realized that this

year wasn’t going to be all fun and games. Even so, I

find that I like it better than I had expected We have

the chance to choose in order that we begin to think

of our futures . . . which is a new experience for most

of us!

The people we knew before the Summer were not

the same on the first day of school especially the

boys. Now we can at least see eye-to-eye with some of

the guys we know instead of looking down on them!

Grade Ten isn’t as routine as Grade Nine. Since we

have different timetables, we get a chance to meet

other Teners. As a Niner, the day is very repetitive

and one interacts with the same people every minute

of the day. I suppose that is fine, but if one wants to

widen one’s horizons, the rotary system is better.

Conclusion: The second year at Jarvis has convinced

me that high school is both challenging and

fun. Who knows, with the marks I’ve been getting, I

might have another year of the Grade Ten excitement.

Grade Eleven

Grade 11 can best be summed up as the gobetween

year. You have two years behind you and

two years left to prove yourself. You are given a

few bonuses i.e. co-ed Phys. Ed., Physics and

Theatre Arts. In return you have to give a little.

Teachers expect you to know a lot of things and be

able to handle any assignment.

Some people expressed their opinions, or

feelings about grade 11 this way:

“The girls are in their prime years.”

“The boys all walk like Karl Ludlow” (The Vinnie

Barbarino style for those who don’t know.)

“It gets harder” or “It’s easier more Individualistic.”

“The courses are more interesting.”

“Today co-ed gym, tomorrow co-ed locker

rooms!”

“You have to find out what you want from school

and there is still time for change.”

However crazy or true the quotes may seem,

some do hold water. There still are two more years

and you can make some changes. The courses do

seem to have more depth. As for the workload

there’s more decisions to be made because you’re

given a wider choice of subjects and you have to

depend on yourself more than you did in grade 9

and 10. As for the girls, you’ll have to experience

that for yourself. “You’ve only got two more

years at good old J.C.I.”

Grade Twelve

Grade Twelve! I couldn’t believe it! When I first

came to Jarvis four years ago, I thought that I would

be here forever. The time has passed so quickly that

at the beginning of the year I caught myself writing

my Grade Eleven home form on my notebooks!

We watch the Niners pour into Jarvis each year

and each year we say to each other, ”We weren’t ever

that small, were we? Did our voices ever sound like

that?” But we were Niners once, just as small and

just as eager.

I remember my first years at Jarvis, dreading what

was at the end of a hall of horrors — Grade Thirteen.

The Thirteens roamed about the corridors, haggard

and drawn, worn out by four classes a day! Well here

we are, one step away from that dreaded year and

now it doesn’t seem impossible anymore, not really.

We have had to learn the ropes around Jarvis. We

know who to watch and whose bark is worse than

whose bite. First we learned the rules, now we know

the exceptions.

I guess that a part of Grade Twelve life that can’t

be omitted is the North Door Club. The place where

the devoted smokers gather outside, rain or shine, to

discuss the “Spares” situation.

I can’t say that the workload is any easier in Grade

Twelve because it isn’t. But there is one change —

some of us who, in previous years, averaged in the

high 80’s now welcome 70’s or even 60’s. And those

with average marks welcomed bare passes.

We shall soon begin the same old pattern all over

again. The pattern that, I guess, applies to almost

anything. We start at the beginning, work our way up

and then start at the beginning somewhere else. It’s a

pattern of progression. That’s Jarvis. That’s life.

Tom at Centennial

Highlife Billiards

78 Wellesley St.East

Overa hundred years ago,

Timothy Eaton opened

the small shop that grew

into a coast-to-coast network.

And now, just a few

yards from where he

began, the new Toronto

Eaton Centre is rapidly

rising, destined to become

the vital centre of

Canada’s fastest growing

city.

The store is based on

solid foundations, not only

of concrete and steel, but

of the service and integrity

that epitomized the

first Eaton store.

Eaton’s — proud to be

growing with Canada.
