If we do spread our activities, one on the wrong things. Australians are apt to could say that a Collegian may leave school regard sportsmen as "top dogs". If we are able to do many things, and few of them to give boys an education to meet the needs well. Is this better than being able to do of today, we must do away with scorn of one or two things well? It appears that if things studious and see good in academic we are to have a diverse academic education, excellence as well as in sport. JUNE, 1967—7 8—THE PEGASUS,

PEGASUS AND AD ASTRA The function of Pegasus and Ad Astra has been under discussion by the General Committee for some considerable time. With the introduction of Ad Astra, as an official publication carrying most of the more detailed news of Association activities, the content of Association news in Pegasus has been greatly reduced. It will therefore contain, in general, only brief accounts of official functions or other information which should be recorded in a permanent form. Furthermore, your committee has been very concerned at the ever increasing cost of producing Pegasus. It has been decided that as from December 1967 it will be sent only to the following:— (i) Life Members. (ii) Other Financial Members (i.e. contributors to the College Building Fund), (iii) Old Collegians who left the College during the previous two years, (iv) Old Collegians who specifically ask for it on the reply slip which they will find enclosed in the front page of this issue of Pegasus. From the numerous reports which have been received concerning Ad Astra and its presentation, it is evident that the large majority of members appreciate this magazine and the news which it conveys. Consequently this publication will continue to be sent to all Old Collegians. P.S. REMEMBER TO COMPLETE THE SLIP IN THE FRONT OF THIS ISSUE AND RETURN IT TO THE O.G.C.A. OFFICE IMMEDIATELY.

of the work of any Headmaster and any School Council is in establishing the environment in which boys may best develop to their full stat­ ure. This development is, of course, of many sorts, and the environment must take account of all these various aspects of personality. All SPEECH DAY those associated with the College should give thanks for the early recognition, so forcefully restated and acted upon by Frank Holland, that the physical environment, the beauty of the 1966 buildings and the grounds, has an unconscious but profound influence upon the personality of a growing boy.
