Backfield coach Ken Campbell will build around quarterbacks Jack Chapelas and Mike Shaw. 1 Stand United Track and field comes in for much attention soon, and sprinters Dianne Robinson, Susan Smith and Gay Gibson have been training strenuously during these winter months to be ready. Broad-jumper Marian Osterhout, a point-getter last year, is back again. Among the boys, Jack Cut-hll and Jim Billings are good bets for some extra points in the annual high school meet at Empire Stadium in May. Tennis, always a top sport at Byng, will feature Ray GamUn and Denis McDer-matt in singles slots.

With all of last year's team returning, Byng has a good chance of upsetting defending champion King George. In conclusion, we at Lord Byng feel that winning in inter-high sport is not of prime importance. More important is the fact that we have competed, and that our student body has been united in one cause. SENSATIONAL IS "GULL'1 Plying Bridge CABIN CRUISER Grenfell design.
