Tony Smith, a typical product of the Fens, was an ever-willing person who could always be relied on for help whenever needed, particularly when problems of a practical nature were to be solved. These he would attack with cheerful determination and a disarming smile, sometimes even with more exuberance than skill, but he was never so happy as when he had some mechanical work on hand.
This love of "messing about with motors" was well demonstrated in his last term at school, when he dismantled, cleaned, sectioned and re-assembled a Morris Eight gearbox, which remains in the School as a teaching and demonstration model and a permanent memorial of his willing and co-operative spirit.from Spring 1964 SG
