Tt is extremely difficult to define the function of a school prefect for there is no
scope of school activity that is beyond his
re<:1ch. He forms a vital part of the institution and is the hinge on which the progr~ss of the school revolves. Consequently,
he holds a very important aud demanding
position in the school.
The Prefects have responded to their task
admirably. They have shown a mature undersbnding of school problems and have
attempted to deal with them to the very
best of their ability. With greater backing
and support from certain of the staff and
the boys, their accomplishments would have
been infinite. I do not mean to say that we
have committed no mistakes. We have made
errors and we have our individual faults
but each one of us is genuinely concerned
about this school, its welfare, and its fair
name. The Prefects have displayed a fine
sense of balance and the ability to judge
quite fairly between right an~ ~ro~g .. I
think they have done a splendid JOb in instilling school and house spirit, whch have
attained new heights this yea!'.
The first of the two great innovations of
the year was the advent of Mr. Ridding as
school principal. We are extremely fortunate to have him with us and have developed a deep respect and loyalty for him.
We could never hope for greater support
than that which he whole-heartedly gave

BARHAM HOUSE NOTES.
As I was called upon the stage to be presented with the coveted badge of HeadGirl, I knew that my task was an important one, and I pledged to do it to the best
of my ability. If I have succeeded, it has
been due to the guidance and support from
my Head Mistress, Teachers, and Prefects
and the co-operation of the girls in the

During the second term we achieved full

achieve some success next year.
The results of the General Knowledge and

FOOTBALL
Unfortunately our foot.ball season was
not an impressive one this year although
we had one notable victory to our credit
when we beat St. Sebastian, the Bomb:i.y
School League Champions. We fared very
poorly ir; our other outings, in particular
against Mayo College where we received a
bad drubbing, but to the credit of our opponents it must be mentioned that they were
far more fit and expert. _ Although we lost
to Barnes as well in our annual fixture, the
team played as well as was expected of them
and really tried hard. Our lack of succe3s
was due to insuffic:cnt practice aITJ generally indifferent play. Except in one or two
matches (and especially in our anncial
match against the staff) we played lethargically and deserved to lose.
Th :) forward
l'nc in particular was inclined to play Eelfishly and there was no proper co-ordination or systematic play in our matches.
With harder practice next year, we ought to
fare much better for it is not talent that
we lack.
In the house matches this year Barham
and Savage were joint winners in the seniors with Barham and Savage winning the
intermediate and junior sections respectively. The matches were keenly contested
and the standard of play, especially in the
iun;ors was quite high. If these juniors train
hard enough, we ought to have a crack 1st
XI in a few years' time.
Finally I would like to thank Mr. Vint

This year our annual swimmirrg competition against Mayo College was revived. In
the Juniors we had a fair share of success,
but Mayo with their better balanced team
had the edge on us. D. Khatau, our outstanding junior, won his events, but he did
not receive sufficient support from the rest
of the team. The Mayo team proved their
all round ability with their superiority in
the diving; here we were outclassed.

GYM ASTLCS
Gymna tics this year saw a vast improvement, purely because-for the three Houses,
Ba1ham, Palmer and Savage-the results of
this last event of the year were to decide
the Championship. So close we1e the points
and so ur1certain the outcome that each
[-louse put in a great effort in preparing for
the event.
Serious gymr1astic practice oegan about
a fortnight before the October holidays.
And as the competition was to be held just
a week after school reopened, the Houses
iealised the necessity to train during the
holidays. Everyday of the two weeks,
gymnasts were practising hard. And despite the fact that the instructors were not
there to help in the trairr:ng the boys did
a good job by themselves. This was evident
from the fine performances at the competit:on.
For the last few years there have bee:1
constant changes in the system of the competition. This year the system has bee:i
changed orr(!C again, ~.nd has finally found
the approval of both judges and gymnasts.
It is therefore hop ~d that this system is
here to stay.
The new rules I was referring to state
that one exercise on each apparatus is compulsory. A further two exercises must be
done by each competitor, and can be chose:1
from a list of exercises of varying points.
This gives scope for variety as well as the
cham:e to do more difficult exercises than
have been done so far, thus raising the
standard of our gymnastics. Last year's
rule that five boys represent the house still
stands.
There were considerable difficulties this
year, mainly because we had no proper
gymnasium. The school hall provided a
poor substitute; it was too small for an apparatus like the Horse, which requires a
long rurr. Besides such apparatus as the
Roman-rings and Horizontal bar had to b ::!
28
left out, due to Jack of space. To compensate for this, Ground-work was included. It
turned out to be a tremendous success and
so it sh1ll be continued in future.
If the standard of gymrrastics could rise
so much without a proper gymnasium, how
much better w:Jl it be next year when the
gymnasium in the new building is completed.
The pre2ent system of includ ng an extra
period for educational activities has played
an enormous part in: boosting the standard
of gymnastics. More toys get a chan:::e to
practise during school hours and do not
have to do so after school is over. The
additional period provokes a greater interest
in this sport, which previously never got
the attention it deserved. This was hardly
surprising, because nobody got sufficierrt
practice. About forty boys constitute a
class and there are forty minutes to a
period. Hence each boy gets two minutes
of practice a week-as each class has two
P. T. periods a week.
Finally, on behalf of the gymnasts, I
would like to thank Mr. Morecroft, Mr.
Muzumdar and Mr. Karki for their tireless
efforts arrd co-operation in making this
year's gymnastics such a success.

'lhc hockey season started as soon as
school re-operred at the beginning of the
year. The new-boys, th:s year, did not sho""
their usual interest and abiLty for the game
and as a result the school team had to be
built up of boys who were re.iected from the
previous year's team. This year's team had
as many as seven new players. However,
through constant practice ("ncluding morning training) the boys played good hockey
and gave the team the appearance of a

CLUBS
THE SCIENCE CLUB
The ScieP.ce Club was opened for boys
and girls from Stds VII, VIII and IX in June.
The main object of the club is to provide
facilities for out of class activities connected with any ~spect of Science of Technology.
The Chemistry group has been making powder, scents , soap etc. The Electronics group
sets and even an amplifier. A Science Gazette has been produced three times by journalistic scientists. On Wednesday evening8 ,
the laboratory has been full of dissected
frogs, wireless noise, telephone commumcations, excitmg brews bubbling over bunsens and Gazette editors heatedly discussing the next issue!
THE SCIENCE EXHIBITION ,
The Exhibition was held just before tht:.
Diwali holidays. All the activities of the
Science Club were represented. Over 1500
people visited the Exhibition, including our
own students, some from other schools, ~a
rents, and teachers.
Burmah Shell photographers also came to
photograph a model oil refinery which boyc;
and girls had made. A very popular item
was a frog's heart which was made to beat
artificially by dripping a special solution
through it. Radio programmes could not only
be heard from crystal sets but seen on the
cathode ray oscilloscope. Collections of
pressed flowers and insects were on display
as were some ingenious geographical
models, a hydroelectrically lit village and
many beautiful charts. There were many
other exhibits all of which contributed to a
very happy and exciting week. We hope
that with more publicity next year's exhibition will be even more successful.

REPORT ON INTER-SCHOOL
ELOCUTION
This year the school Elocution team excelled themselves in the Inter-School Elocution contests organised by various organisations of Bombay. These competitions are
held annually and all the leading schools in
Bombay participate in them. These competitioas are organised to give students t.he
art of public speaking. Our competitors were
definitely of a higher standard than any
other school. They were commended on their
high standard and their natural way of
speaking. Although the competition from
certain schools was stiff, our boys had
more grace, poise and eloquence than any
other competitors. This was proved by the
fact that for every competition they entered, they won.
The first competition was organised by
"Youths Own Union". There the team A.
Aboody and R. Singh won the trophy for
the school. The second was organised by
the "Nowroze Baug Play ,C entre" for the
"Bai Jerbai K. Modawala" challenge trophy.
This was won by Homi Bhedwar for the
school. R. Singh was placed third. Homi
Bhedwar went on to win the coveted, "Lovjl
Cama Memorial Trophy" for the school. A.
Aboody was placed third. These two created a record by scoring 187 out of 200
points.
The year was a good year for the school
in this field, as the teams brought great
credit to the school. The credit goes entirely to the boys and I congritulate them for
their creditable performance during the
various competitions. I am sure that this
is only the beginning of such successes for
the school.

In the Geography Club meeting we were
told that we would be going on a trip to the
Phoenix M:i!ls. On 5th November we went
after lunch with Mrs. Karat and Mr. FullerSessions.
At the mills we were shown around by a
guide. First we were taken to the mixin15
room where the guide explained how they
mix the different types of cotton into different percentages. The cotton is then taken
to the blow-room where it is spun into fine
thread at different stages.

This thre?.rl is then passed through a sizing machine which strengthens the thread;
it is then spun irrto cloth or looms. These
looms are automatic, eight looms can be
looked after by one man. The guide showed
us how the cloth is passed through a J-box
which blearhes it. It is then sent to the dyeing room where it is dyed different colours
or printed into various designs. The cloth
is then dried with a steam dryer after which
it is sent to the packing room, where it is
stamped and packed ready for the market
or export.
The guide therr took us to the mills canteen where we were served with refreshments.

SCOUTING
B. Bayley T IL.
To a casual observer in the school hall
or at the front gate, it would seem that
the scout troop has been doing very little
active work. This impression is caused by
the small number of scouts in the troop.
Never has the enthusiasm to join the scouts
betn so low. This is perhaps one of the
drawbacks of having a voluntary scout
troop. Ours is the smallest troop to date,
and the beginning of the year, when we
were faced with more recruits tha r: actual
srcuts, we thought it to be the most incftlcient. But all our expectations proved otherwise. For its size and capacity, our troop
has done very well.
The first activity of the year was the
CRmporee in March. Here our scouts showed 5Teat promise by standing fourth out of
all th~ troops in East Bombay. The youngsters responsible show great signs of devEloping into a good senior troop in a year's
time.
The second term opened with much more
work on our hands. We were determined co
make ail our new recruits Tenderfoots within the first two months and the sessions,
notebooks, demonstrations, knotting tests
and all began irr a big way. Now we have
only 4 non-Tenderfoots who should complete badgework by December.
Having brought the entire troop to a
Tenderioot Level, with the exception of
ah.mt 6 Second Class boys, we began training the scouts in Second Class tests-signalling, first aid, trailing, pioneering. 1966's
troop should be a solid one.
Our investiture ceremony was the bigge'lt wa had to date. Hitherto, it has been
a private affair between scouts, T[L and SIM
but thi;; year we invited the Parents and
the School Staff to attend a more organised investiture. Here we invested seven
Tenderfoots and two First Class Scouts. The
cup for the Best Scouts of 1964 was shared by A. Aboody, our ex-T \L, and B. Bayley.

THE
GIRLS
SCHOOL CONCERT
BEFORE ..... .
Highlighting all the other numerous activities which take place during the second
term is the Anrrual Concert. All the class
teachers produce and direct (sometimes
even write!) short, mostly humorous, plays
in aid of school charities.
Everyone thoroughly enjoys these productions; and we have our reasons too!
Plays mean many hours of rehearsing action3, expressions and positions. This means
play practice, two words everyone in our
alma mater loves. (This, of course, as long
as they are not used in connection with
~aturdays and
Sundays). As far as the
girls are concerned, rehearsals must take
place during the time normally utilized for
lessons. So, amidst loud pushing of tables
and chairs, and the cries of joy, the class
concerned stampedes down to the Hall for
a play practice. Usually, those who aren't
acting in the play make the most noise.
Quite naturally, rehearsals aren't quite
as simple as that. Often there is a mistake, and two clas~es face each other in the
hall, crying for the rii;ht to rehearse on the
stage. While the "Almi~hty Ones" discuss
!he matter. the "Little Beasts" prefer to
fight it out '"ith words. The defeated
party slinks out, throwin~ condescending
remarks over their shoulders; the victors

The play be~ins. Everyone sails through

Dear Diary:
Amidst cries of
'Bye', and 'Don't lean out of the window',
the Bombay-Howrah Express, carrying
some 50 Cathedralites to Aurangabad,
slowly pulled out of the V. T. station. Most
of the night we sang and ate, until our voices cracked and rations ran low.
Friday, 27th August. - We changed trains
at Manmad at 1. 30 a. m. We were tired cold
and very sleepy. The bunks were a~fully
hard, and our backs were sore after we'd attempted to sleep for a little while. We arrived at Aurangabad at 7 a. m. and walked to
the Tourist Bungalow. We washed and
changed and left for Ellora after breakfast.
We strolled around the caves and our guide
explained everythi11g. It was very interesting and the sculptures were very beautiful.
On the way back we visited Aurangzeb's
whole
day at Ajanta. We saw the famous Smiling
Buddha. The frescoes on some of the cave
ceilings were really lovely. The narrative
paintings were nice, too, but many have been
badly mutilated. We were much too tired to
do anything special in the evening, but many
of us went for long walks.
Sw1day, 29th Aug.-Today we saw the Dau-
latabad Fort, Bibi-Ka-Makbara, and Panchakki. They are all fairly near Aurangabad,
and most interesting. The Bibi-Ka-Makbara,
a miniature Taj Mahal, provided much pleasure. We shopped in the afternoon, arrd 9
p.m. found us at the station. The train
journey was strenuous and we had to change
compartments at asik Junction, where one
39
of our bogies caught fire. We were too excited to sleep after that, and so we ate and
played cards the whole night. Our arrival
in Bombay was delayed by 30 minutes because of the fire. We arrived here at 9 a.m.,
very, very tired, but still feeling buoyant
after our marvellous, most enjoyable trip.
I'd like to add that we had great fun
throughout the trip. Meals were hilarious
affairs and every n ight was practically
sleepless on account of creepy stories
and visions of white hands floating past the
windows. 'Ye'd like to thank the teachers for
being so patient with us, and also 1Ir. H.K.

such a success.

A buzz of excitement swept through the
Cathedralites and the girls of the J. B. Petit
school, at Bombay Central. It was the 23rd
of Apr;l, and the trip to Kashmir was at last
being held positively, after much doubt b.:.cause of the Indo-Pak conflict.
The train soon steamed into Bombay Ce11tral, and after a mad rush for seats an rl
hundreds of farewells, we were off.
I<'irst of all, we went to Agra, where we
saw tht Agra Fort, and later on Fatehpur
Sikri. After that we had to stand the sticky
heat, hot drinking water and dirty JOUrnE.y
to Delhi, but it was all part of the fun.
Here, we saw the Prime Minister's museum,
the Kutub Minar, the Delhi Fort, and various temples.
li'rom Delhi, we went on to Pathankot,

Wednesday 25th August was a normal
school day for everyone except the 12 boys
who were bound with Mr. Mazumdar fur
M0unt Abu, one of the beauty spots of
India. We travelled by trairr via Ahmedabad
and. by bus from Abu Road up the exciting
road to the hill station 5,000 feet above the
plains.
Tl:e party visited Sunset Point, to look
do,vn on the plains; we boated on Nakki
Lake and visited Aehalgarh Fort-but the
highlight was the Dilwara Temples. Their
beauty made us feel very relir;ious, particularly those who, like ourselves, are Jains.
In Ahmedabad on the return jourrrey we
spent the morning sight-seeing in a luxury
bus and in the evening caught the train
back to Bombay.

An epic answers the basic needs of th3 human spirit. It portrays the ideal kind of
man, the Hero, who differs from ordinary mortals because he has qualities wh1c1 1 they
possess to a less exlent. Even when lie ha8 supernatural powers and is even more noble
because of them, "they do little more than supplement his essentially human gifts."
The admiration of great deeds lies deep
in the human heart, and "heroes are the
champions of man's ambition to pass beyond
the oppressive limits of hum::tn frailty to a
fuller and more vivid life. to win as far as
possible a self-sufficient manhood, which refuses to admit that anything is too difficult for it, and is content even in failure,
provided that it has made every effort of
which it is capable."
DR!GHT HONOUR
Honour, the Greek philosophers believed,
was the important element in the human
soul which could distinguish itself in great
actions. Thus it becomes the matter for
many epics of different nations and ages.
Delving into the past, to the time of Hesiod
( c. 600 B. C.), we find that he described
heroes who fought at Thebes and Troy as "a
worthy race ... divine, heroic-as demigods
they are known." This idea is reflected in
Homer's Iliad and in the fourth century
B. C. Aristotle regarded honour not only as
"the prize appointed for the noblest deeds"
but as "the greatest of external goods."
The idea was not only confined tu the
Greeks. The 'chevalier' of the French epic is
in every way a Greek hero, as is the ~panish
'caballero', the Anglo-Saxon 'cempe', the
Russian 'bogatyr', the German 'held', the
Norse 'jarl', the Tartar 'batyr', the Serb
'yunak', the Albanian 'turn', the Uzbek
'pavlan' and the Indian 'mahapurt.i:;h' or
'avatar'. We find in the French epic, The
Song of Roland. that the hero Roland deferred blowing his horn until too late and
died aft.er a brave fight against heavy odcls,

In one Greek epic, Jason and the Argonauts start out on the quest for the Golden
Fleece. Jason has been deprived of the
throne of Iolchos which his uncle Pelias has
usurped. To get rid of him, Pelias said he
would surrender his throne if Jason would
bring him the fleece. Jason undertakes the
expedition, embarked in the Argo with the
travest of the Greeks and with the help of
Medea in Colchis wins the prize.

Shikhara in this temple is covered with 22

conceive and erect such a structure.
Srirangam is a Vishnava temple, and
therefore there was reclining figure of
Vishnu in the sanctum. No one except the
priests are allowed into this most holy of
places. I was given 'Prasad' and holy

us round the temple was an extremely funny

bride got into the car, to be taken far away

and its occupants should be respected arrd

The bride turned around for the last time
to look at her house, the house where she
had stayed for twenty long years. She felt
like running back, but she was helpless.
Tears rolled down her cheek; her eyes
were red and she was literally trembling.

\Ye were asked to cut up Rana Temporaria,
which is not as strange as the name suggests, for it is none other than the common frog found in gardens and ponds.
All of us, Biology pupils, were looking
forward to the day of the dissection with
great eagerness. We were excited as this
was our first dissection on a living creature.
At first, it seemed very heartless to watch
the frogs writhing with pain, on being
chloroformed, but after a while, when they
lay lifeless and motionless in the glass tank
in which they were kept, our guilt at having
treacherously murdered them, subsided.
We now set up our apparatus needed for
the dissection, and cleaned the slime off thP.
frogs' bodies and laid them on our waxed
trays, all ready to slice. Some of us were at
first hesitant in picking up the surgical scissors and forceps, but the others gallantly
showed us the way.
With Mrs. Chacko's help we ripped open
the topmost layer of the victim's skirr and
waited impatiently to explore the strange
interior. By this time we had shed our

nervousness and fear and worked like professionals. Our next step was to cut open the
thin, though, tough membrane-the peritoneum-which disclosed the hidden organs.
What a remarkable sight we saw before us! All the miniature organs and
glands arranged more neatly than we
had expected. One very interesting point
we noted about the frog was, that
its heart continued functioning for about
two hours after death. The major veins and
blood-vessels could be seen running to all
parts of the animal's body.
After inspecting the various parts of the
frog's body and noting the important features, we cleaned all the flesh and muscles
on the skeletal system to visualise the
bones. We then preserved these bones for
the use of future Biology students.
Our success at having dissected the frog
very correctly and with patience was undoubtedly due to Mrs. Chacko's able guidance. What might have seemed a cruel and
heartless deed to others was an interesting
and memorable event for us. What a great
deal of knowledge we had obtairred from
the strange interior of a small animal like
the frog.

incapable of killing a few cold germs which
probably came from the man standing behind me in the ticket-queue at the station
the other day. And I cannot blame my

And so, my temperature shot up the

in my mind being, "When on earth will this
cold leave me and give me some peace?"
which was, indeed, a rhetorical question,
for nobody had any notion about the
answer! I was dosed with all sorts of drugs
(about 15 pills a day, I think) but the
germs took absolutely no notice of them,
and went on with their destructive work,
sapping the energy from not only my body,
but even my soul! I was in rro mood to de

causing the temperature to drop a few degrees below normal. It had not decided to

that I left the hou se the next day to attend

IN RETROSPECT
/Jy "C. J." or "Ollie"
" H'r loo/." before and after and pine for what
is not,
An<l our sincerest laughter with some pain
is /rang ht"
I hope I have quoted this aright! My onetime English pupils will probably be able to
check it! For me it expresses very aptly
my thoughts as I sit to dash off these lines
to satisfy the clamour of the two editorsof the Borderer and the COBA-for "some
thing". It is a little difficult to know where
to begin and what not to include for it is
not possible to cover 18 1 ~ years in anything
less than an autobiography.
I remember very clearly that Sunday
morning, the 28th of July 1946 when I first
joined. I was met at Bombay Central by
Arty Lunn (now Head of Bishop's) and
Shorty Quinn (both School-time friends
of mine). We came to Churchgate Station
by "local" (a new experience for me) and
then accompanied by coolies carrying my
belongings we walked to school-one at
least of the group gazing at buildings and
traffic with some awe. The first thing which
impressed me was the well-trimmed hedge
which grew at the front of the School and
the Gold Mohr which was all abloom. The
hedge, like some other more important things.
is a ragged shadow of itself and I hope one
day, after the other things are p~t r:ight, t.he
hedge too will flourish once agam 111 all its
green glory!

Yet it was this which led to the Borderer's being written entirely by boys, whereas
up to 1946 it was very much a Staff Maga~
zine, everything including Home Note::i,
games' notes etc. flowing from the pens of
Staff. And talkirrg of the Borderer, does
anyone know what happened to all the past
copies of the Borderer bound and kept in
"volumes" in the Principal's office? Furthermore what became of the original cover
design of the Borderer and why was it
changed? Perhaps, the re-change of Editor
will re-change the cover!
MEMORY'S DOOR . . . .
Orrce having started it is difficult to stop,
for memories come pouring in: More's
broken leg at the Gym. Competition: Austin's clothes stolen by a navy deserter (who
thoughtfully had a bath first) : Alique Padamsee's constant battle with the three
"Gorgons"; the cricket match in Gremaux's
French class; the "humming birds" in Williams' S.C. Urdu classes; the attempts at
getting to know examirration
papers
through asking Lincoln for "tracing paper"
(the backing of stencils): the Hydrogen explosion in the Chemistry Lab; Maher's sigh
of relief after he had plodded his weary
way up the front stairs; the "coaching" of
Gremaux to errable him to play goal:c for
the Staff in Hockey; the Boxing match durirrg the lunch-break in the Staff Common
Room, between Gremaux and Burton (refereed and judged by other nembcrs of th~
staff under Association Football rule3) ; all
these and many others are memories tha1
still are green and which will probably remain so for all time: they will each require
a long paragraph to recount.
I shall only relate one such. The cricket
team had played on the B. P .H. A. ground
near the Parsee well and the boys decided
to have lunch at "Purohits". Having paid
Rs. 1 '8 for a "lhalee" each they sat down
to get their money's worth. After all others
had r eplenished themselves, young Charles
was still at it. Eventually he was asked to

This is the second time that I am prompted to put pen to paper for the COBA, and
the subject remains the Old Boys Cricket
XI. Primarily I am conscious of repeating
myself but there is one consolation, I have
been awarded greater scope with which to
achieve this. We have played a further six
fixtures. We stand second in our division4 points behind the leaders and with a game
in: hand.
I feel the easiest (this appeals to me!)
perhaps the most readable write-up would
be a review (cryptic! ) of the last six
games, played between the 2nd and 24.t.h of
October.
