- Public Description
- A varsity jacket belonging to coach and teacher John Del Grand in 1953. John taught at St. Andrew's from 1949 to 1961, and was lovingly called "Stump" by the students due to his smaller stature. He was known as a brilliant mathmatician, first teaching at St. Andrew's and later going on to teach at the University of Toronto and publish over forty books. He is also the winner of multiple national and international awards in his field.
