Hamilton Highlights 1961
No full textThe annual publication of the students of Hamilton Junior High, Lethbridge, Alberta.(1960-61)pdfForeword
We oro proud fo present the Hamilton Junior High School Year Book for 1961. This publication has soveral purposos.
First and foromost it is to servo as a pormanont record of the past year's school activities. By tho uso of words and pictures we hove tried to give you the host possible summation of the activities which arc carried on in this institution. The academic and non-academic, the curricular and non-curricular — all aspects of our school life aro on display hero.
This year we dedicato our book to threo mon in particular — Mr. George Watson, Mr. Hamilton — after whom our school is namod) and Dr. G. C. Paterson. Thoso mon have given unselfishly to tho cause of training the young people of Lothbridge. The ontire community and particularly our school, owos thorn a debt of gratitude. They are inox- tricably bound up in tho history of our city.
Wo gratefully acknowledge tho assistance that has been so un- solfishly given in the production of this book. Without the advice and wise counsel of Mr. G. C. Miller, Mr. George Watson and the other teachers, such a book would bo impossible. The students too have helped with tho work, and particularly did we appreciate the assistance of Frod Burton, Doidra Poulsen, Elaine Leong and David Hamer.
Wo hopo that as you leaf through thoso pages, fond memorios of a profitable year woil spent will be revived and porpotuated.Ad Astra Per Aspera
Imagine standing on a hill on a dark night and viewing a big city in the volley below. Here we see a multitude of lights, large and small, and each is endeavoring to pierce the infinite gloom. Taken individually, there is no great effect but all combined, there is a noticeable impression.
So too, in our lives it is important that each and every one of us strive to to help "illuminate" the world of progression. While the struggle tends to be infinite, still, we must constantly endeavor to combat ignorance and work hard to improve the lot of the human race so thot better understanding will prevail.
To each of us falls a portion of the task, but to see its completion is another problem. It is not for us to question or to find fault, but to be of such good character as to give our very best. Progress is essential and without such, the future would be hopeless.
To achieve our portion, it is well that we equip ourselves os bosf as we can. A most important requisite is a well-trained mind. To this end we ore fortunate in having fine schools and good teachers to help us become an important "light" in the path of progress, but the key to the whole situation is the individual. He must be desirous of learning and aspire to be successful. He must play his port in society and then our social structure will tend to glow brighter in the infinite gloom of ignorance, distrust and despair. Good luck to all.

Valedictory
eWb
Mr. Miller, Mr. Watson, Honored Guests, and Fellow Sludents. This year I have the pleasure of giving the Valedictory for the graduating class of Hamilton Junior High. This being our final year, we look bock to three years (and in o few cases more) of hard work os well os many moments of fun and recreation.
Hamilton Junior High School has been a great stepping stone for us in the transition period from elementary to high school. During these three years we hove boon taught not only the academic subjects but also the importance of assuming greater responsibility, not only to ourselves but also to others. The greatest compliment you can pay to our school is to be successful and happy. Therefore, lot us continue to set our goals high and never be deterred from reaching them.
We must accept responsibility, and the degree to which we do will determine the type of men and women we shall be. Everyone of us hore, I'm sure, expects to enter some business or profession in the future and this goal cannot be reached without determination and good old-fashioned work on the part of each individual. We ore now of the age where we must develop ability to assume responsibility and this can best be done by applying ourselves to conscientious study.
This year we hove been most fortunate in possessing a specialized teaching staff in our school. Our teachers hove given their utmost to enable us to further our education, and coupled with that we have had excellent school facilities. With such a combination, if we apply ourselves, success must bo inevitable.
It is with much regret that we ore losing our vice-principal, Mr. Watson, who has so carefully token care of our finances and made sure no money was spent unwisely. Again, permit me to thank all our teachers on behalf of the students. What you have done for us will always be remembered by each and everyone in years to come.

Home and Schoo
eW5
The Home and Schoo! year 1960*61 was very successful as far as programming was concerned. We had included in these programmes the Cameron Report, discussion of the curriculum by the teachers, what their subjects teach the children and what is expected of the children. Wo also showed a film and hod a discussion on if afterwords. Mr. Miller had as guests of the Homo and Schoo! the parents of prospective grade seven students from other schools, in order to explain to them the organization and curriculum of Hamilton Junior High School.
At Christmas the students and teachers presented an evening of entertainment. The Drama Club gave several short plays and the school hand gave a very enjoyable recital, all of which was very well received.
Mrs. Vera Shirley attended the Banff Conference of the Home and School as our delegate and brought back to us a full and comprehensive report on the conference.
As in the past, we would like to express our thanks to the teachers and students of Hamilton Junior High School for their willing assistance with our programmes and in the concerts that were presented at the school.
We who fake part in Home and School activities feel that those interested in
their children's education, should attend Home and School meetings and take part in
its programmes. Mr. C. Miller and Mr. G. Watson, the Principal and Vice-Principal of
Hamilton Junior High, ore very helpful in making our programmes as interesting as
possible. Mr. G. Watson is retiring this year and we on the Home and School Executive will miss him and the help he has always given us. Wc wish him every success for the future.

School Board
The school year 1960-61 hos seen a further increase in enrolment. At the end of Decomber 1960, there were 1978 pupils in Grades 1 to 3, 1752 in Grades 4 to 6. 1596 in Junior High and 1067 in Senior High. As the heavy enrolments in the primary grades move up there will be o marked increose in the Junior and senior high registrations.
The current employment situation points up the fact that more and more training is necessary. In this age of automotion ond technology, when training and skill ore so necessary, those without them cannot hope for anything but the increasingly few unskilled jobs that remain. As the demand for the unskilled decreases, the need for trained workers and technicians with at least high school graduation is increasing rapidly. The National Employment Service has found thot, despite a high rote of unemployment among unskilled teen agers, skilled jobs ore going unfilled. Employees of the future must be adaptable since technological developments moy offect the nature of the jobs they ore doing and they must be prepored to do something else. This implies good, sound training to ot leost the level of high school graduation. The employee must be able to think. Tho greatest need today is for young people who can be trained to assume executive positions.
While the drop-out rote of students in the Lethbridge city schools is one of the lowest in the country, there are still far too many students leaving our schools inadequately prepared to meet lifo's problems. After junior high, our two high schools offer a full program in the academic, commercial, industrial arts and goneral fields. After high school the Lethbridge Junior College offers the first year of university training in most faculties for the matriculation student. At present considerable investigotionol work is being done with a view to establishing a vocational school os port of the Junior College to serve the needs of the non-motriculation student. To aid those adults who sec the need for increased troining, a comprehensive evening class progrom is offered by the Junior College.
In terms of cold cash it pays to stay in school. Recently released statistics indicate that each year in senior high school adds about S230 per year in starting wages, while senior matriculation odds $466 more per year. At the age of thirty, it is estimated thot the high school graduotc mokes 30°* more than the nongraduate.

Address to the Graduating Class
eWs
Mr. Chairman, Honored Guests, Members of the Faculty and Graduates:
It is with considerable nostalgia that I stand before you this evening, since if was in the building presently known as the Hamilton Junior High School that I first walked the vaulted halls of the Castle of Macbeth and wondered with King Lear on the windy moore. If was in that building that I last received the strap for telling what I considered to be the truth, although admittedly, in a somewhat round-about way.
During my sojourn there I was told much that was never learned, I learned much that I never remembered, and yet as I look back, I feel that it is no doubt one of the outstanding periods of my life.
I recall one year that Viscount Bennett, then Prime Minister of Canada, spoke to the student body and at that time he said that the Youth of Today hod the opportunity, training, education, background and know-how, and I suggest Mr. Chairman, the graduates of today are no different.
However. I do believe that everyone will agree that we all suffer under the feeling of being pressed for time. We are eternally in o hurry, which after all is simply a shortage of time. Naturally enough there is created a universal impatience which again is merely a shortage of disposition. In all this hustle and bustle is it any wonder that we all search for what we call "short cuts/*
"Short cuts" arc to be found everywhere in life today, whether we recognize them os such or not. For instance, a leisurely breakfast is almost impossible, with instant coffee, quick oatmeal and minute rice. The housewife is provided with her own short cuts; she now has polish that requires no rubbing, no buffing and has the use of detergents which make clothes cleaner than clean, whiter than white.
"Short cuts" are presented to us so frequently that we ore inclined to try them in everything in life. Well students, I assure you that there are some things that just cannot be hurried, that demand the long way around, if you like, and to which there are positively no short cuts.
There is no short cut or quick way to make an oak free grow from an acorn. No hands of man can turn back the fleeting minutes nor hasten the circuit of the sun in the sky. It still requires rain, and sun, and time to grow a crop, and all the impatient mutterings of mankind changes nothing of the works of nature.
If has been said that there is no royal road to learning and I suggest that it is just os true that there is no short cut to education. The highway leading to this very graduation tonight is surfaced with the cobblestones of time and effort.
I feel rather sorry for young people today, simply because they seem to be in such a hurry to grow up. or at least to become adults. Some try short cuts to manhood or womanhood, and seem to bo impatient with the time and effort required, simply in being young people, and they expect to build character overnight. Some feel that
by the use of self-assertion, smartness and disregard for advice, the day will soon dawn when they can say "Today
I am a man." Graduates, I say to you, that it takes as much guidance, growth and direction now, for a girl or boy to reach maturity and possess character as it ever did. Don't be afraid of being a teen-ager for just as long os you can, because you will be an adult soon enough and long enough.
Don't form the habit of looking for short cuts os you go through life, because could young people realize how
soon they become more walking bundles of habit, they would give greater heed to their conduct while they ore in this plastic state. We arc choosing the paths of our own fate, and whether they be good or evil, such paths are never retrod. Slow down, don't always use the short cut, use the longer way, take time to give the person you would like to be, a look at the person that you really are. It is just os far from the truth for a 14 years old to think
he or she knows all the answers, as it is to fear that he or she doesn't know any of thorn.
Graduates, on this, the eve of your entrance into high school, I urge you to examine closely all the roads that
you may be tempted to take, whether your destination be college, vocational success or simply womanhood or manhood.
Moke sure the path you choose leads you where you want to go. Remember always, that helpful as they can be at times, short cuts ore seldom hard surfaced and smooth, are often rocky and winding, and frequently prove to be longer and more hazardous than the beaten or perhaps more tedious way.
Yours is the choice, the well worn path or the promising unknown short cut. May God in his goodness assist you in choosing wisely.

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods

Hamilton-connected indices of graphs
No full textAbstractLet G be an undirected graph that is neither a path nor a cycle. Clark and Wormald [L.H. Clark, N.C. Wormald, Hamiltonian-like indices of graphs, ARS Combinatoria 15 (1983) 131–148] defined hc(G) to be the least integer m such that the iterated line graph Lm(G) is Hamilton-connected. Let diam(G) be the diameter of G and k be the length of a longest path whose internal vertices, if any, have degree 2 in G. In this paper, we show that k−1≤hc(G)≤max{diam(G),k−1}. We also show that κ3(G)≤hc(G)≤κ3(G)+2 where κ3(G) is the least integer m such that Lm(G) is 3-connected. Finally we prove that hc(G)≤|V(G)|−Δ(G)+1. These bounds are all sharp
