Il:ij,llrfirnill.eyr rm just getting to know my second grandson, who labors. or delights, as his mother would say, under the name of Balind. - I call him Young Bill. In a crafty stroke with inheritance in mind, no doubt, he was given the plebean second name of William. As it turns out, and as my daughter didn't know, it's right in the family, on both sides. He's named not only for me, but for his great-great-grand- father, William Thomson, on my side, and for his great-great-great- great-grandfather, Wil" liam Bull, on my wife's side. (Continued from page Al _ in a boiler factory. Both were good men, and pioneers, William Thomson was slide-master at Calumet Island, in the Ottawa River, in the lumbering days. William Bull was the first settler at Colpoys Bay on the Bruce Peninsula, a "fine man, well educated" who was the first Indian Agent in that area. _ _ - Young Bill began life as a bawler. a fat little guy" who looked like Winston Churchill. In five months, he has improved tremendous- ly. He has lost three chins and now has only one extra one. He has an endearing, lop-sided grin, huge. bright eyes, and a delightful Chortle. I think we'll keep him, after all. by a Rover leader in Toronto "The fourth category involved a physical fit- ness program for IO months,'" said Mr. Robert- son. "I was having health problems and could- n’t participate so I chose the alternative cate- gory which was called the design for living." - li, this category it was necéssary to study some area which would be of benefit to the participant himself as well as other people. - “One of the suggestions" was getting married and buying a house," said Mr. Robertson. "l sure didn’tgo for that." -- _ _ Instead. Mr. Robertson studied the co-op man- agement system at the co-op residences on Philip Street in Waterloo. He was in a good position to do this as he lives there and at that time was the maintenance manager. division manager and member of the board of directors. He is-still a member of the board. (Continued from page " "I knew a lot about it and all I had to do was write an essay." said Mr. Robertson. "l had the general manager for the residence read it and assess it." Mr. Robertson did not feel that the program took any special thought or extra time on his part. "I am not the type of person who needs to be motivated in the first place," he said. "I was already involved with these things and it just so happened they were the qualifications. It was just a matter of doing them a little better. .. Mr. Robertson enjoyed the presentation cere- mony and recalled that Prince Philip spoke with each winner for about a minute. One event during the ceremony caught Mr, Robertson's admiration.

"He gave us a prep talk before the ceremony and arranged us in our places and he had memorized all this information. It was incredible. A couple of people mhadn‘t arrived yet and he knew exactly who they were and where they came from. He did this for two ceremonies in the Maritimes as well and each at them had around M recipients. He had to get to know approximately 120 people. .. Mr. Robertson doesn't think that he will have much time on his hands when. he starts back to school in the fall. But if he does he may consider working with the rovers as an advisor and assess- ing the participants in the Duke of Edinburgh Award program. A society is just starting up in Toronto for all, the gold award winners so that they can keep in touch with each other and inform groups as to who is available in their area for assessing pro- jects. Mr Robertson has always been active. His hob- bies include photography. fixing up his car, playing broomball during the winter. and most important of all. finishing university. He is in his second year of honors mathematics at the Uni- versity of Waterloo and he plans to be a high school teacher.
