Dear Fellow Class Mates



Attached are 5 photographs from the college magazine of Term 3, 1971.



In these photographs we can see the Warden, Mr. S. J. Anandanayagam, and
other popular members of staff such as Mr. D. N. Pereira, Mr. C.
Satchithanandan (father of S. Suresan of the Class of 1971), Mr. D. S.
Jayasekera and Mr. B. S. De S. Abeysena – all with very distinguished
looks!



Some of these photographs also feature our class mates:



Photograph No. 1 (Tamil Debating Team) – refers to Mohan Rajasingham (R.
Mohan) by name, as he was not present when the photograph was taken.



Photograph No. 4 (Swimming Team) – Ranil Samarasinghe, A. M. (Manilal) De
Mel, P. R. (Rohan) Mather, M. C. K. (Channa) Perera and F. F. Grigson, as
youthful as they looked over 39 years ago!



Photograph No. 5 (English Debating Team) – refers to N. K. (Kumar) Rasiah
by name, as he was not present when the photograph was taken.



My thanks to Manilal De Mel for sending these memorable photographs to me
from Colombo for circulation to the Class of 1971.



If there are any other photographs from the college magazine or other
sources that feature our class mates, please send them to me for
circulation.



Happy Reminiscences…………………..



ESTO PERPETUA
