He wasan awesome English teacher, though I had difficulty with the literature and creative part of the course. Math waseven a greater struggle, though myDad helped me a lot to get through. I'm not sure I have detailed memoriesbut do remember when our homeroom classin grade 12 had a partyfor Mr. Byerswhen he got married. I waspetrified of having to go to the blackboard to solve a geometryequation when there were a lot of strong math studentsin the class. Mr. Manale had a fancycar and cannot remember the name of the student who actuallydrove a fancyBuick(*) to school. No one else had a car to drive to school in those daysbut we walked when the weather was good or tookthe OTC. (* - That student wasAndrea Truckwho onlystayed at Hillcrest for one year.) I enjoyed phys. ed. classesuntil we had to do folk/square dancing so never looked forward to the springtime when I felt asthough I wasso awkward. One year, we had a hootenanny, but it took place in the school gymnasium. Mr. Peterson created an interest in history, though he wasdefinitely not politicallycorrect with one of hisfavourite expressions, "when men were men, and women didn't count!" Two other memoriesconcern the political and international state of affairsin those days. I really feared there would be a nuclear war during the Cuban Missile Crisis. Close friendswere posted to Washington from 1961 to 1965 so we knew how terrified they were while living in Bethesda, Maryland. Then there wasthe assassination of President Kennedy, an event that I will never forget. We heard rumoursin Mr. Benoit's English classabout 12:00 noon and then received the awful newswhile in botanyclass. When I walked home from school that afternoon feeling so sad, we were so afraid the Soviet Union might somehow be involved since it wasjust a year after the Cuban Missile Crisis. Unfortunately, I do not have anyphotosof school activities. MyDad likelytook photos at graduation time but we have lost some of them and myparentshad trouble with sewer backupsso their basement-recroom filled with water, thankfullyclean water, several timesuntil the problem was solved with sewer reconstruction when so manymore homeswere built on Pleasant ParkRoad. I live in Hanover, Ontario, a small town of 8,000 in GreyCounty, with Owen Sound further north and Kitchener-Waterloo or Guelph asfavourite shopping destinations. If you're wondering how I ended up living so far from Ottawa, it'sbecause I wasassistant librarian at Merivale High School in Carleton County, with Andy Peterson asthe principal. There I became good friendswith Brian Simpson, Allan, myhusband'sbrother. So some match-making tookplace! Allan taught French and later French Immersion here in Hanover. We spent a wonderful year in Nantes, France, while he had a teacher exchange in 1977-78. We've lived here since 1974 and now I trulylike living in a small town. However it wasquite an adjustment after living in Ottawa, Montreal where I went to McGill for LibraryScience, and also Toronto for teaching qualifications. 2 DIANA LOUISE (USHER) SIMPSON—CLASS OF 64 With flowers from her Aunt Edna in England for her 64th birthday last November, Diana Louise Usher Simpson—Class of 64—is a retired teacher and librarian, married to Allan with two adult children, who has posted the following on the Reunion website: “Thank you for organizing this important event. I am especially looking forward to seeing former classmates after so many years. “I recently met my grade 11 and 12 math teacher, Mr. Bob Byers, wasassistant librarian at Merivale High School while we and our spouses shared a meal during a Caribbean Cruise in March, 2010. “We had not seen each other for 48 years!!! It was during that conversation that we talked about the upcoming anniversary.” The "NOW" photo (at right) is of her sister, Judy Usher Brown, and herself, taken in May, 2008, at her son’s wedding. (Editor’s note:- For those of you who may not remember, Diana was a member of the Senior Girls’ Volleyball Team. See page 18.) 3 THE 1962 GRADE 11A AND 11B GOSSIP COLUMN [Editor’s note:- We present this excerpt from Hillcrest Hi-Lites 1962—as it was printed—and will let you figure out whose initials they are. And, of course, we have a few, well-placed comments to help you out as well as some snaps from the1964 yearbook to help you figure out the initials.] It seems the spring love bug is buzzing around already. D.C. or better known as Howdy Doody isn’t content to stay in his own territory of 11B (you know that 11B had a fabulous addition of ten charming, not to mention brave young civilizers). [That’s “girls” to those of you who either can’t remember that day or can’t figure out what the editor meant.] Brainy, M.C. of 11A has a hold of his strings — but good. J.H. of 11A has caught the fancy of that pert grade niner, C.J. —we’re on your side C. Our gossip column wouldn’t be complete if we didn’t mention that smiling ham, R.J. You’d better watch him B.B. —he might lay off and look at you. [If you can’t figure out those two, then you really are getting old and losing your memory!] Tall, lanky R.G. will soon have a fan club list pages longer than “Elvis”but don’t fret H.D. you’re at the top. L.M. our surprising basketball hero has been well and truly matched with T.S. Not hard to understand at all is it? [Even I can figure out this one...but then, I have had help from L.M.] Our budding skier S.B. loves to go to Camp Fortune. Funny though, she doesn’t ski. M.A., I think must have something to do with it.

  • Russ Jackson on CFL.Ca Comments That “Good Quarterbacks Like Russ Jackson Are a Special Kind
    Devon Forbes Mathew Neal PED 201 Prof. Byl March 30 th , 2009 A Biography of Russell Stanley Jackson Displaying one of the finest athletes representing Canada is Russell “Russ” Stanley Jackson. On the day of July 28 th , 1936 in Hamilton, Ontario comes a child who is to be recognized as one of the greatest contributors to genuine passion for the love of athletics and sportsmanship both on and off the playing field. Jackson’s early life truly defined what his passion was: sports. Jackson excelled as an athlete in his careers in basketball, hockey, and baseball. Many spectators that watched Jackson on the playing field often came to the conclusion that as his skill level rose, so did the fortunes of his fellow players. Jackson was truly a beneficial addition to any team he took part in. Russ played several sports and loved the competition involved in it. Baseball was a large part of his life from early childhood to adolescence. Jackson was involved in some semi‐pro baseball in Hamilton for a period of time; however, he grew out of it. Jackson began to develop a passion for football, yet his father felt that there was no insurance after the football season ended. Instead, he felt academics were a priority. Despite Jackson’s father’s disagreement with playing football during school, Russ got his neighbour to sign the permission to play (Canadian Heroes with Canada Heroes). Jackson had the intent of playing defensive back and dominated playing in the senior level while he, himself, was still a junior.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE U SPORTS launches 100-day countdown to 53rd ArcelorMittal Dofasco Vanier Cup; Tickets on sale now August 17, 2017 TORONTO (U SPORTS) – The countdown is on to the 53rd ArcelorMittal Dofasco Vanier Cup as U SPORTS marks 100 days on Thursday until Canada’s national university football championship. The 2017 ArcelorMittal Dofasco Vanier Cup returns Nov. 25 to Tim Hortons Field in Hamilton, Ont.- home of the Canadian Football League’s (CFL) Hamilton Tiger-Cats – where the Laval Rouge et Or won a record ninth national title last season with a 31-26 victory over the Calgary Dinos. Hamilton’s Flag 5 on 5 Football League received the first official tickets to November’s championship contest on Tuesday, following their practice at Tim Hortons Field as special guests of U SPORTS. “They’re ecstatic,” said Hamilton’s Flag 5 on 5 Football League coach Kevin Harrison, who played for the Carleton Ravens from 1989 to 1991. “To be able to play on that field and now meet some of the guys that actually played in U SPORTS and to be able to watch the game and be the first to get tickets – they’re pretty excited.” Joining approximately 40 youth football players and their families in attendance at Tuesday’s special practices were former McMaster Marauders Mario Ceminara, Phil Scarfone and Russ Jackson. “Hamilton is a hotbed for football,” said Ceminara, an outside linebacker with McMaster from 1979 to 1983. “There’s probably a couple spots in Canada where football is integral to their city and definitely Hamilton is one of them.” “You’ve got a great venue here,” said Scarfone, the ex-Marauders quarterback, who won the Hec Crighton Trophy as the most outstanding player in U SPORTS football in 1984.
