Three EDITORIAL
■
In 1967, the editors of this magazine presented an optimistic report and synopsis of what was for us an exciting innovation. There had been created a student body whose function was to facilitate co-operation between the administration and the School. This ·· School Council " was hailed as the basis of a truly New Zealand educational system incorporating elements of the old English traditionalism, and the more modern American systems to encourage personal participation and development.
Sadly, the optimism of the 1967 editorial proved unfounded. The Council collapsed-and who can say where the fault lies? Since this demise, the School has indeed progressed, particularly in the academic fields-for example, our study and tutorial system-but each reform or advancement has been instituted and developed by the administration alone, with no help or co operation from the student body. In the non-educational aspects of the School. the once rejected suggestions of the Council have suddenly and belatedly been implemented by the administration, much to the profound bewilderment of the student body. Two prime examples are the perennially-passed motions to do away with the school cap, and to run and staff a school Canteen. Both have now come to reality apparently in spite of the Council. Surely this is not the way to develop civil responsibilities in the young adult-one can only expect of an adult as much as he has been taught to give, and to do only as much as he has been taught to do. The basis of democracy lies in co operation, and what better way to learn this, as well as the basics of Civics, than to have a hand in the running, and the formulation of policy, of a school.
We must revive this organisation to encourage the learning of civic skills and the awareness of responsibility. We must regain the feeling of pride and participation in our education and in the School's activities.
The onus of revival lies on the student body; we look to the Rector and Staff to foster its development. The problems of the l 970's demand nothing less than a united approach.

HONOURS ACHIEVED BY STUDENTS During the year pupils of the School achieved some outstanding successes in the local community and beyond in a variety of fields. Some of the most outstanding are recorded here. MARK TREFFERS (N.Z. Commonwealth Games Swimmer) Mark was chosen to represent New Zealand at the 1970 Commonwealth Games at Edinburgh. This was indeed a high honour for one so young. Selection meant he had to spend a lot of time training in Christchurch and so he attended school there during this time. Altogether Mark swam in six events. In the 400 M:tres Freestyle he set a N.Z. record in the heats. He was a member of the 4 x 100 Metres Relay team which gained fifth place in the final; the 4 x 200 Metres Relay team which just missed third place; the 4 x 100 Metres Medley Relay team which gained sixth place in the final. Mark's most outstanding achievement, however, was in the 1500 Metres Freestyle, the longest swimming event at the Games. In the final he gained the Bronze Medal and reduced the N.Z. record to 16min. 44.69sec. This was a very fine performance by any standards. \Ve can look forward to further honours for Mark at the Olympic Games in Munich in 1972. MUSIC Geoff Murdoch, a violinist, was leader of the National Secondary Schools' Orchestra in Hamilton during the May holidays. He also participated in the National Youth Orchestra in Dunedin during the August holidays. This orchestra also recorded several radio and television performances. It performed in Oamaru and culminated a week's practice with a performance in the Dunedin Town Hall. Locally, he gained the Beath Memorial Prize for Grade VIII examination marks and also succeeded with the practical part of his A.T.C.L. performer's diploma. Pieter Vanderley, a trombonist, played in the Na tional Youth Band in January. The band consisted of 45 instrumentalists and practised for two weeks at Lincoln College, near Christchurch, before going on a five-day tour encompassing concerts in Westport, Nelson and New Plymouth. The two-week preparatory course resulted in a num ber of radio and television recordings.

We went into the Oamaru three weeks later. Taking the negative of the subject " That a man cannot get rich honestly ", all three of the team gave of their very best, against a fairly weak effort from Waitaki, and we won by the huge margin of 50 points, with L. Gray again as best sp�aker. As a result of this encounter, we brought a magnificent trophy back to School. By this time, the Competitions season was almost upon us. We entered a record number of four teams, two in the open (adult) section and two in the secondary schools. In the eliminations of the open section, the School's No. I team of Gray and Waldron, for a long time dominant in Competitions debating, went easily through to the finals, while the No. 2 team of Pomeroy and Jones was very narrowly beaten by the Woodlands Country Girls' Club. In the secondary schools' section, both teams, Naylor and Gordon, and Homer and Sil cock, went through to the final, with the former team finally victorious. All these boys show tremendous pro mise and leave us confident that the School will have a powerful team for many years to come. In the Anal of the open section. Gray and Waldron were able to defeat the Country Girls' Clubs, giving the School a clean sweep of Competitions debating. We arc confident of equally successful results against James Hargest, Girls' High, and St. Catherine's. The team was a great credit to the School this year. Gray retained his unique style, making him best speaker of every debate he entered. Waldron, after a shaky start against Otngo, reached a peak in the Competitions debates. Pomeroy remained the mainstay of the team's rebuttal. winning many a debate with his sarcasm and wit. Finally, we must give our heartfelt thanks to Mr. Jones, without whose help these results would not have been possible. Thanks are also due especially to Mr. McIntosh, and to Mr. Berridge and Mrs. Gray for their ., RUNNING IN Tl-fE CORRIDORS rs FORBIDDEN .. help throughout the year.

It was discussed with the Property Supervisor, who felt it was a reasonable proposition. Although not entirely desir able, it would establish a canteen and should bring profits, which in five years· tim� would be available for something better. The operating of it would not be before the second term of J 971. The system that was adopted during the year in collecting subscriptions has proved to be most satis factory.

In the local competition, School defeated behind fine Gore Wanderers (twice), Queen·s Park, and drew with Queen's Park and Waihopai. We had some very close results in other games and were desperately unlucky at times. The finest game of the season was undoubtedly the Chatham Cup game against Waihopai. To quote the " Southland Sports .. headlines, High School " was robbed ". It was a very wet ground and after being a goal down within 10 minutes, School came back with a tremendous fire and by half time was 3-1 up. It was soon 3-2 but a good goal by Graeme Parmenter made it 4-2 with 15 minutes to play. Then School gave away its second penalty in the match and Waihopai followed soon after with another goal which made it 4 goals each at full time. During extra time both teams scored, but we were forced to give two corners away which proved our downfall. The general teamwork and grim determination that was evident in this game showed the great potential that this team had. This performance was the most heartening the team had. It was a pity it came at the beginning of the season. The School"s record was as follows: Out of 19 games played, four were won, twelve were lost, and three were drawn. Fifty-one goals we re scored by us and ninety-three against us. CAMPBELL'S STUDIO The top scorers were: G. Parmenter with 13, S. Phone 89-7 43 Grant with 9, R. Malcolm with 9, S.

I would also buy with the money when they get it. Personally, I don't an oil field and a few mines. The money made from want to get rich, but if I do I know what I'm going these would be put away for future development. The to do with my money. I would divide the money into next section of $2,000,000 would go to the charity of four sections. The first section would be for travel. my choice. This charity is the crinnled returned service I am very fond of travel. The first place I would men to whom I owe my whole being. travel to would be South Africa where I would visit Whatever money is left would be put in a bank for some of the Game Reserves. From there I would travel safe keeping. After all this about being rich, I still think up through Africa, through the Middle East to France that life in the middle and lower classes would be best because money makes and breaks men, and I don't want to be broken. -J. A., 4Fl PAINTING THE HOUSE The other day Dad decided that it was time we painted the house; Mum had been nagging at him for months. The next day we all went to town. Mum and Dad argued for ages which paint shop we would go to, but Dad finally won. Mum and Dad and Sis and I all trooped into the shop and started choosing paints. Dad, being a practical chap, found a tin of paint with a label that said, " Tested in blazing heat, biting cold, resists wind, dust and mud, washes clean in the rain." However, there was only one colour, which didn't worry Dad, but Mum hated it. She and Sis were arguing over a couple of shades of pink. I thought they were sissy colours with very soppy names. However, Mum's author ity prevailed and we set off home with several tins of "Rubella", which I thought was extremely funny.

Dear Sir, The selection committee for the original contribution section of the " Southlandian " accepts only a few of the probable not-very-many entries. There are two main reasons for this: lack of incentive, and pupils do not usually try for their best effort when a teacher has forced an original contribution upon them. Furthermore, the original contribution section is the section showing just what the school can do scholastically, so why not place more emphasis on this vital section, after some people spend much more time reading the original con tributions than the sporting records of the School? After all, it's not inexcusable that some people are not in terested in our first fifteens and elevens. Fifty-four MR. WILLIAMS' SWAN SONG ST.
