MR. J. GNAY
BY BOB MILLER, 11C •••.,/ time than the thirty-minute
BY PATTY O'MALLEY 11B
A popular member of the
staff of W.D.H. S. is the head
of the English department, Mr.
Morrison. He was born in
Grand Valley and attended ele-
mentary school in London and
secondary school and university
in Toronto.
This is his fourth year teach-
ing in this school but before
coming here he taught four
years in Orillia and one year in
Windsor. At the present he is
teaching English in Grades 10,
12 and 13.
Mr. Morrison states he does
not know why he chose teach-
ing as a career, but he gives a
reason for teaching English. He
thoroughly enjoys English but
he doesn't know how he could
face a class in Science or His-
tory.
His comments on school sup-
port are most favourable --
wonderful, co-operative, pleas-
with torque sensitive drive
Looking for a new kind
of fun and excitement?
Try Snow Cruising. New
features, new engineer-
ing refinements put
Snow Cruiser way out
front in performance
and dependability. Tor-
que sensitive drive, like
your car's automatic
shift, shifts into "low" •
ant.
He felt he could not pick
out any one highlight in his
life but he was definite on his
outside interests -- four child-
ren, reading, bridge, golfing.
According to him none are
done well but we doubt the
truth of that statement.
His main aspiration is to
succeed in creating a lasting
impression of human values.
His main dislike is people who
do things just to get them done,
therefore not done well.
We might all do well to fol-
low his mottos -- Life is what
you make it and we only
achieve what we want to.
Mr. Morrison's comment
about himself is scarcely fa-
vourable. He claims he is lazy
but that other people are gen-
erally good.
We wish Mr. Morrison many
happy years of teaching at W.
D.H.S.
and 3 exciting models

flotation keeps it up top

going is fast and easy.
Let us show you how
easy it is to get a Snow
Cruiser for your family.
We offer factory author-
ized service by trained
Snow Cruiser specialists.

Mr. and Mrs. Vernon Inglis
and son Kevin of Toronto spent
Christmas with Mr. and Mrs.
James Inglis.
Mr. and Mrs. Greg Buchan-
an and Jon of Toronto visited
with Mr. and Mrs. Gordon
Wright during the holidays.
Mr. Gnay, who is co-coo,th
of the Wingham District Hygh
one of the most popular teach-
School Mustangs, is no deyubt
ers in our school as it s at
least partially due to his excel-
lent coaching that,,Vlle Mustangs
were so successful,' this year.
Mr. John Gnia. was born as
a "small" bab in Montreal
some few yeas ago and later
attended a on. room school
near Granton, in Middlesex
County. He 4eceived his-sec-
ondary school' education at Med-
way High School in the London
area and upon graduation went
to the Ontario Agricultural
College in Guelph. It was at
this time that Mr. Gnay dis-
covered that the high schools of
Ontario needed his services and
he decided to become a teach-
er, - •
After completing his course
at the Ontario College of Edu-
cation, he taught in Essex
County for a year and then
moved to Mitchell High School
where he taught for four years.
At this time, seeking advance-
ment (and presumably more
money) he came to Wingham
District High School where he
is in his fourth year of impart-
ing his vast store of knowledge
to the students in Grade 10
Science, Grade 12 Chemistry
and Grade 13 Biology.
Mr. Gnay enjoys teaching at
Wingham High because of the
good co-operation between the
students and teachers and the
warm fellowship among the
members of the staff. In gen-
eral, he feels that Wingham
High is run very efficiently,
especially since the new six-
day cycle and the forty-five
minute periods have been initi-
ated. He says that the longer
periods are more conducive to
teaching a good lesson or per-
forming experiments which gen-
erally take considerably more

r•itet&i s. main philoophy
of life comes fro7r1 p..t.eao er he
had at one time, who saia
"Work accomplishes all things"
and he believes that if one
works hard enough to achieve a
goal, ultimately the goal will
be reached. Perhaps this would
be a good philosophy for us all
to accept as our own, for ac-
tually it is the essence of suc-
cess in life.
Mr. Gnay is generally con-
sidered a good-natured fellow
but confided that he dislikes in-
tensely, procrast;nation and
dieting, or trying to stay on a
diet.
He feels that luck is, a very
important factor in one des-
tiny, and says that it was only
luck that he decided to go tc:,
high school, graduate and be:
come a teacher.
Outside of teaching Mr.
Gnay enjoys farming, especial-
ly raising beef cattle and corn
and watching the stock market
when he can. Of course, Mr.
Gnay's favorite hobby is coach
ing the football and wrestling"'"
teams at Wingham High an
watching football and hoc
games.
Everyone at Winghan-
rict High School wishes
Gnay success in all his-
ventures and a long an
