GOOD VISION
One of the essential requisites to success in life is good vision. Vision not seen with the eves so much as with the mind.
Parents and instructors of children are well ac- quainted with the development of this other sight. Some men have attained fame and fortune without vision, in the physical sense, but never ever without it in those other realms of which we speak.
Heads of industries are constantly on the lookout for men who possess this quality, because they recog- nize in them the potential leaders of tomorrow.

HIS EXCELLENCY RT. HONOURABLE VINCENT MASSEY, C.H.
Governor General of Canada
S.A.C. 1902-1906.
EDITORIAL
As we mentioned in our Christmas issue, nearly tour thousand boys and young men have passed through the gates of St. Andrew's. Of these, one hundred and forty-three made the supreme sacrifice in two world wars. We failed to mention, however, that many of the four thousand that have left the school have become some of Canada's foremost citizens.
It has only been since Christmas that we have learned of perhaps one of the greatest achievements by an Andrean. It is the appointment of the Right Honourable Vincent Massey, C.H., to be Governor General of Canada.
In 1902, Charles Vincent Massey. at fifteen years of age. entered St. Andrew's as student member number 221. In the last fifty years Mr. Massey has become not onlv one of the school's most distinguished Old Boys, but one of the truly great men of Canada. While at St. Andrew's he was one of the editors of the Review and contributed many articles and poems to it. He was one of the officers of the first Cadet Corps in 1906. He was a good hard-working student.
Since leaving the school Mr. Massey has perhaps done more for educa- tion than any other man in Canada. He built Hart House and the Victoria University residences. Under his presidency of the National Council of Education in 1923, a survey was made of Canada's educational needs by a "roup of eminent educationalists drawn from man)- qviarters. In numerous writings and speeches he has brought a great influence to bear on our whole educational development.
He once taught Historv at the University of Toronto, and was Dean of the Victoria Universitv residence. Indeed he was at one time ap- pointed Housemaster at St. Andrew's, but to our lasting regret he was pre- vented from keeping his appointment by an illness. In addition to his
18 St. Andrew's College Review
educational interests, Mr. Massev found time in his unique career to become President of the Massey-Harris Company— the largest concern of its kind in the British Empire and now headed bv Mr. Duncan whom we are all so glad to have as the chairman of the Board of Governors of St. Andrew's.
He was the first Canadian to hold a diplomatic post in a foreign country, when he went to Washington. His success there has gone a long way to produce the present understanding between Canada and the United States. Then Mr. Massey went to London as the Canadian High Commissioner. Here, throughout the war years and with the unfailing and untiring help of Mrs. Massey, he performed one of the greatest services that any Canadian has ever undertaken for his country. Many of those who went overseas will long remember the hospitalitv and the kindness of the Masseys in London, and the country at large will never forget the outstanding contribution made by Mr. Massev in furthering Canada's cause and in building up Empire relations during the trving years of war.
Not only has Mr. Massey been interested in the development of art in this country and in Britain but also in the development of Dramatics. He also became chancellor of the University of Toronto and was chairman of the Royal Commission which produced the now famous "Massev Report".
When we here at St. Andrew's heard of his appointment we were of course extremely proud and on Tuesday the 29th of January the school was given a whole holiday in his honour. Our thoughts were then turned to a poem which he wrote and placed in the Easter number of the Review for 1906:
Rise ye, heirs to Scotland's fame!
Ye who bear an ancient name!
With college pride that none can tame,
Drink to Saint Andrew!
Ye who've left the college halls!
Ye too, still within her walls!
Tilt the flagons— honour calls!
Here's to St. Andrew!
Drink to victories fought and won
College triumphs still to come,
Drink to deeds her sons have done,
Bravo, St. Andrew!
May her spirit never die!
All her foes may she defy
KparaiovcrQe be the crv!
Vivat, Saint Andrew!
Si. Andrew's College Review 19
We at St. Andrew's offer our heartiest congratulations to Mr. Massey on his appointment as the first Canadian Governor General. We are looking forward to May 16th, when he will be at the school to inspect the Cadet Corps of which he was one of the first officers.
« o o
A short week after our holiday in honour of Mr. Massey 's appointment, the school was dumbfounded at what they learned when they arose one morning. Those who rose early were shocked to the point of disbelief, as were those whom the rising bell woke.
We switched on our radios to get some loud music to completely awaken us from our slumber, but we were surprised to hear solemn music. Thinking that we had the wrong station, we re-tuned the dial to get another one— but we heard exactly the same thing. Somewhat be- wildered, we had to listen for a few minutes to see why we heard only quiet music. Then the voice of the announcer, grave and sorrowful, said. "King George VI is dead, long live the Queen".
Breakfast that morning was eaten in almost complete silence. It was hard to believe that our beloved king was dead, and it took a few days to get accustomed to the fact.
On the dav of the funeral a special chapel service was held, after which we joined the rest of Canada in a National Day of Mourning. The Head Prefect read the lesson which began, "Let us now praise famous men." At the conclusion of the service we sang our new National Anthem- God save our gracious Queen,
Long live our noble Queen,
God save the Queen.
Send her victorious,
Happy and glorious.
Long to reign over us,
God save the Queen.
And from the bottom of the hearts of everyone in the chapel came the words, "God save the Queen. Amen."

It is a disappointment to us all at the school to hear that Mr. Tomkins our Bursar is leaving us this vear. He has done a capable and commend- able job and we extend to him our best wishes for continuing success at Bishop's College.
The Review wishes to extend our heariest congratulations to Dr. Mac- donald who recently celebrated his 80th birthday. We are glad that he is still in good health and we hope to see him visiting the school for many vears to come.

St. Andrew's College Review
During study on the night of January 17th we were disturbed by the words, "It's a boy!" We soon discovered that Michael John Paul Del- Grande had arrived. On behalf of the school we offer congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. DelGrande.
Finally, the Review extends to the boys of the Upper Sixth best wishes for a successful future and we are looking forward to visits from them next year.

SCHOOL NEWS
During the centuries, mankind has had its ups and downs but has changed little except in its slow advance towards what is called civiliza- tion. St. Andrew's, although its history can only be measured in half centuries, also has its ups and downs and it may be said that this has been one of the up' years. It might even be said that we are more civilized -the new boys are treated somewhat more kindly than they
used to be!
It is hard to determine what has made this a good year. The marks, although better than average, are not as good as last year's. In athletics we have by no means walked away with all the championships. The general happiness of the school tells the story, however, and the defeatist attitude that prevailed over the past two or three years is no longer
present.
Winter is always a long, drawn-out business but this year the fane performance of tlie Hockey team and especially of the Basketball team had the whole school hanging on the outcome of every game. Perhaps
22 St. Andrew's College Review
ihe weather had something to do with everyone's amiability. We cannot sav that we had as much snow as in 1945 bnt at least the fall was much heavier than it has been for the last three winters. This meant that the Ski Race was run for the first time in three years and there was a good turnout for it despite the fact that there has been nothing to ski on for so long. The new hockev rinks were also used as much as the weather per- mitted. We would like to thank Mr. Harry Davis for spending long, cold hours in the evenings and the early mornings flooding the surfaces.
The new rinks bring to mind other units of the construction programme. The new staff building which was mentioned at Christmas has been completed and is now occupied. Having looked at the new rooms, some of us think that we will work for the school next vear. When the land- scaping has been completed we shall try to publish a picture, although it is the interior that reallv counts. Another building that is in the final stages of completion is the new residence for the Memorial Housemaster which is situated behind the arcade leading from the Library to the dining room.
Literary Societies have come and gone, and most of them without having left much of a mark. This year's executive, we feel, has added greatly to the enjoyment of school life especiallv during the winter. Clarkson. McKee and Richardson have made superhuman efforts and we certainly respect the difficultv of their jobs. We offer them our thanks on behalf of the school.
O * C
There were four major debates this year of which St. Andrews won one and lost three. On Saturdav 19th January, the S.A.C. team debated at Ridlev. The resolution was "That life before the invention of the steam engine was better than in the modern age". St. Andrews took the affirma- tive but were defeated by the more skilful Ridlev team. The debate was handled exceptional lv well, and after both teams had made their points, there were many good speeches from the floor.
The subject of the next debate on Friday, 1st February was "Resolved that modern vouth is degenerate". St. Andrew's, the hosts, spoke for the affirmative while Trinitv took the negative. It was an enjoyable debate for all concerned, but both the Trinitv delivery and preciseness of prepara- tion were too much for the Andreans and the judges were unanimous in giving Trinitv the verdict.
The debate at Upper Canada on Friday, 29th was St. Andrew's only win. S.A.C. took the affirmative on the resolution "Rig Time American University Football is, on the whole, detrimental to the life of the Uni- versity". Roth teams presented their arguments well but the St. Andrew's team were, on the whole, more vigorous and better prepared.
U.T.S. visited St. Andrew's for the final debate on Fridav 17th March. St. Andrew's lost a debate on the interesting resolution: "Communism
St. Andrew's College Review
23
should not be allowed in Canada". This was one of the best debates of the vear but U.T.S. scored a well-earned victory over St. Andrew's. Thus another year of debating ended at St. Andrew's, and our sincere con- gratulations go to U.T.S. , the group winners.

Clarkson, President of the Literary Society, should be congratulated on upholding his motto, "a movie once every two weeks". The pictures were well chosen and they were varied in character. They included such well known films as "Frenchman's Creek", "The Clouded Yellow". "Tight Little Island", "13 Rue Madeleine". "Theirs is the Glory", "Show Roat", "Kind Hearts and Coronets", "Stage Coach", "Jamaica Inn", and "On the Riviera". The enthusiasm and regular attendance of the boys indicated their enjoyment of these excellent features.

Several editions ago it was stated that Mr. Ramsay had cut down the time it took him to get home. This time we would like to announce that he has been seen not walking, not running but galloping home. Spring fever perhaps!

St. Andrew's College Review
Mr. Ketchum, one fine Sunday afternoon, to celebrate the coming of spring no doubt, ordered the upper school boys out with brooms to sweep away the winter's refuse. Great clouds of dust began to arise and then all at once a Memorial House platoon materialized and as if by magic a Flavelle House platoon also emerged. The first "Battle of the Front Quad" was about to be fought. With brooms for rifles, waste-paper baskets for drums and bag pipes wailing, the two invincible bodies marched towards each other; the order for rifles down was given and when the whiles of the eves could be seen, the charge was sounded. The result: again a cloud of dust. In the end the road was dirtier and it was the boys who celebrated the coming of spring after all.

Mr. Gibb's tour, which was previewed in the "Review" last year, came off last summer with a big bang as will be verified by nine of the travellers at the school this year. Enough credit cannot be given to Mr. Gibb in that he accomplished everything he set out to do without any accident, damage or loss of money. Members of the school who were on the trip were Tony King, Paul Esson, Bob Carr, Rex Crawford, Bob Haines,

Mr. Gibb is taking a somewhat larger tour this year with Mr. Mac- farlane helping and we wish them the same measure of success. We also wish we could get a picture of the latter in shorts! Contributions will be gratefully received for the Christmas "Review".

A new arrangement featured the Christmas dinner this year. We say this because there was a master and his wife at the head of each table. Thus the forces were split and each one came in for his share of attention. The meal itself was excellent and surpassed the past standards. Mrs. Ince's efforts also, in the decoration department, were deeply appreciated. The theme of the evening's speeches seemed to be party jokes including of course Mr. Tudball's "Herbert". Even Eric YVilhelmson, after being asked by Mr. Ketchum to do so, told one about ah some turtles, wasn't
it Eric?

The half term dance was certainly a credit to the ingenuity of the Dance Committee. It was held in the librarv and Bob Gilbert gave us excellent music with his band box. Refreshments were served at half- time and everyone packed off for Toronto at one o'clock having had a
good evening.
* * a
During the winter we had several davs of leisure granted to us. One half-holiday was for the birth of Mr. Del Grande's first son. A whole holiday was granted on the occasion of Mr. Massev becoming Governor General. The third was a time of leisure, but certainly not enjovable as it was the day of mourning for our late King, George VI.

Under the auspices of the Literary Societv and with the encourage- ment of Mr. Ketchum, Cmdr. Frewer, R.C.N. , came up to the school one Friday evening to lecture and show movies. We understand that he is touring the countrv for the R.C.N., spreading its fame abroad. We wish him every kind of success and thank him for coming out of his way to show us these first-rate films of the Navy.

We know that Mr. Garstang is an accomplished musician but we did not know that he considered Johnny Ray so much to his taste that he would line up for two hours to hear him!
Another, to sav the least, unusual event of the winter was the removal of the snow plough for repairs during the first snow fall!

We have been informed by Mr. Tomkins that the Board of Governors has officially approved the levelling of the first team football field. The idea is that the first team field is to be dug up, levelled and re-sodded while onlv major upheavals in the rest of the field will be fixed. They feel that the tiling itself is still secure. We are very happv indeed that this job is being performed.
It is very pleasant to see that some of the masters are now able to afford two cars or should we sav a car and a half Mr. Gibb?

THE CADET CORPS DANCE
Every year it seems that the writer of this article ends it by saying "Yes. indeed, this years dance was a great success". This time we would like to say this right at the beginning because the dance was essentially a verv successful affair.
After passing the formidable but inevitable receiving line, composed of the Headmaster and Mrs. Ketchum, Captain and Mrs. J. Aubrev Holmes , Cadet Major Chuck Malcolmson and Miss Sally Kingsmill, and Cadet Captain Tony King and Miss Sally Mair, one entered the beauti- fully decorated dining room.
The music, of an excellent nature, was supplied by Frank Bogart's orchestra but as usual, Pipe Major Fraser's bag-pipe plaving was the highlight of the evening. He accompanied the dancers through the intri- cate patterns of the Dashing White Sergeant and Reel O'Tulloch.
The most noticeable innovation this year was the dress of the officers. They turned from their customary khaki tunics and through the kindness of Colonel George of the 48th Highlanders, were resplendent in scarlet mess jackets and evening dress.
Refreshments were served at eleven and the dance ended at one o'clock. We would like to offer a v ote of thanks to those who helped give us such an enjoyable evening, especially the Dance Committee, the kitchen staff and the orderlies.

Bruce Anthony King
THE HEAD PREFECT
A high standard must be attained by the boy who will follow in the steps of our popular, red haired, head prefect, for he has set a standard tins year which will be difficult to equal. c
We have learned that Tony has changed a little in the down-to-earth features ot his character during the years he has been here. His good qualities would take to enumerate. He is modest in all respects but he also is determined, self-reliant, and above all, has the courage of his convictions. Tony is not naturally attracted to the limelight but stands out from the rest because of his preciseness and the methodical manner in which he conducts himself. What has this produced0 Well, in the lower school he was on the first hockev. football and cricket teams. In the upper school he was one year on the fifths and for the last two years has been on all three first teams but unfortunately has been put out of both football seasons by serious injuries. It might be mentioned that on nearly all of these teams he got his colours! In other than the major sports he was a boxing champion and last year won the senior track and field championship. .
Tony is also 2 I/C of the Cadet Corps and besides all this stands well up in his class. He is a lower six head prefect, a great achievement in itself. Yes. as far as S.A.C. is concerned, Tony is an all-round boy and we wish him every success in his chosen career.

LABURNUM GROVE
In many respects this was Mr. Holden's best. Though the play itself leaves much to be desired, he managed to turn it into an excellent even- ing's entertainment.
He achieved this partlv by the brilliance of his casting. He was for- tunate this vear in the high general level of talent at his disposal; but good talent can be ineffective unless directed into the right parts. George Radfern, for instance, might have been born in Laburnum Grove, so quietlv complacent was he, and seemingly appreciative of well-ordered respectabilitv. And the casting of other parts was equallv good.
The acting was exceptionally good. That of Mrs. Radfern (J. R. Dixon) —if I may single out one from among such a high level— was superb, especiallv when at the beginning of Act II she began to come to the fore; it embodied poise and ease of movement, and dominated the stage from Act II, Scene 2 to the end of the plav. The handsomely attired sponging relative. Bernard Baxley (W. D. Frith), from one of the Outposts of the Empire, very Poonah Poonah, was terrific; at times he almost stole too much of the audience's attention. He was also a good foil for the excel-
.10
St. Andrew's College Review
lent acting of his nagging wife (J. D. Grant), till they made their convincingly argumentative departure in Act III. George Radfern (K. G. Brown), apart from being well cast, maintained a high level of acting throughout. I was specially impressed by his mastery of the brilliantly produced meal scene at the end of Act I.
I much enjoyed the young lovers, without whom no comedy would be complete. Elsie Radfern (H. E. C. Schulman), though not alwavs clear, was charming and effective, and a better actress than many voung heroines. Harold Russ (M. B. Wansbrough). tall, handsome and in- genuous, with a good manly voice, and gestures indicative of complete
worldliness and self-confidence, provided us with a good mixture of ardour and comic relief; though I doubt whether, when he later comes to face reality, he will again try to make love to a girl with a cigarette in his mouth!
Crooks and the Law were an integral part of the plot. Joe Fletten (L, D. Feldman), George's accomplice, helped very adequately to fill out the pattern of the former, and managed to look as if the forging of bank-notes was natural and commonplace. The suave Inspector Stack (J. E. Trent) gave a convincing presentation of what might otherwise have become a colourless part, especially during Act III. where his
St. Andrew's College Review 31
alternation of cunning and threats became most effective. Of majestic Sergeant Morris (S. A. C. King) it could perhaps just be said that never in the history of the St. Andrew's College Literary Soeietv has such tumultuous effect been achieved by so few words.
It was an excellent show; with quite exceptional acting, as I have tried to indicate, making up for the obvious demerits of the play.
My congratulations to the Costumes and Make-up Department. The girls were ravishing, and nearlv as attractive as the ladies who dealt with them. The dresses, not to mention the hats, were riotous, and set off well by the horribly familiar '"just out of bed" look at the beginning of Act II. The males also scored a notable triumph this year.
I congratulate, too, those who set up the stage. They had done an excellent job, and rung with great effect the changes of some of the much beloved material which has appeared so often before. School theatricals always present golden opportunities for illicit smoking, and this play was no exception. So dense were the puffs and the clouds of smoke on the stage, that visibilitv was at times completely obscured. This was most realistic— it might have been the masters' common room. I would like to thank, too, the Propertv Manager for his courtesy and efficiency; and also to express my admiration for the person in charge of the rings and crashes and bangs, which always— a most unusual feature— seemed to come in the right place, and were so important for the dramatic effective- ness of the plav.
This was a grand illustration of collective effort and triumph; but for the success of the evening we must look to the producer, and it is to Mr. Holden that my most heartfelt congratulations go. I have always admired his sure touch, his good and tactful handling of material, his sense of stagecraft, and his powers of getting the best out of whatever comes forward. He has produced for one or two better individual actors in the past, but I doubt whether he has ever had the good fortune to deal with such a high general level of good acting ability as he had this \ear.
Of his plavs that I have seen. I think that this was his best.

BRUCE CLAN
The Bruce Clan is once more right in the middle of the clan race. We did not appear too strong at first but as the year has progressed we have moved into strong contention for the championship. In almost every field of endeavour around the school, both athletic and scholastic, we have had representatives. The Bruce has supplied the football, hockev, and cricket teams with important material, and is currently making a strong bid for track honours. After a valiant struggle in the finals we finished as runner-up for clan hockey honours. The Bruce clan has been represented amongst the prefects and in the cadet corps, and when the prizes for academic work are distributed may be counted on for a good showing.
All in all, with several strong new boys and a fine potential in the Lower School the prospects, present and future, must be considered among the best. J. A.

THE DOUGLAS CLAN
This year the senior members offered to help any member with anv problem which he might have; scholastic or otherwise. I feel that this has done a great deal for the spirit within the clan, as w§ll as within the school. It has made the wee Douglasses feel really part of the Clan. I hope that this system of Clansman helping Clansman will spread to the other Clans next year.
Looking back over the months I think the Douglas Clan has indeed prospered. Eight members of the football team were clansmen including its Captain, Osborne. Seven Douglases won positions on the hockey team including its Captain, Carr, and its Vice-Captain, Malcolmson. Our Championship Basketball team, captained by Osborne, and vice-cap- tained by Paterson, included also three other Douglases. Five members of the Cricket Eleven are members of the Clan.
Outstanding clansmen are Malcolmson, who was the Commanding Officer of the Cadet Corps, also winner of the gymnastic competition; and Munro who won the senior Cross-Country Run as well as the senior ski race, breaking the previous record and capturing the three cups provided for participants in that event. Four of this year's nine prefects are Douglases.
Well done the Douglas. B. A. K.

THE MONTROSE CLAN
In writing this brief note to you, the Montrose Clan of '52, I am finding it an extremely difficult task to refrain myself from excessive bragging— however, I will do my best. This year's Clan was indeed one of which you can all be proud for the spirit, determination and enthusiasm shown
St. Andrew's College Review 33
by everyone of its members left nothing to be desired. This is even more encouraging because of the fact that the Clan is young and stands to lose only a few of its members at the end of the year, with the result that things look bright for the future. This year found the Montrose Clan well represented on all the First Teams of the school especially the First Hockey Team whose representatives helped win the coveted "Clan Hockey Title". (That was a slip but I just couldn't resist the temptation.) Indeed the Clan took a very prominent part in all the school activities. This year you have more than lived up to everyone's expectations and if you will all continue to do your best, win or lose, there will be no reason for regret. You have certainly kept up, if not improved upon, the high standard of last year's Championship Clan. Congratulations and keep it up!
W. F.
WALLACE CLAN
In football, a sport which needs intestinal fortitude. Wallace had eight stalwart members on the first squad. Three of our Clan helped the First Soccer team to have a successful season. In swimming, Wallace again led the way as Rea and Hill headed the contingent, and Garcia, Bickenbaeh and Ryall were loaned to the Basketball team and had no small part in helping them to win the championship!
On the scholastic side, four of the eight scholars were members of Wallace which goes to show that there is brain as well as brawn. We were also well represented among the prefects and Chapel bovs, and in the Cadet Corps.
Throughout the year Wallace has shown plentv of fight in all athletic- encounters and it looks as if there is plentv of talent among the vounger members of the Clan.

Cfjapel jSotes;
Ox January 13th, the first Sunday of the term, Mr. Ketchum spoke about creating a small Kingdom of God within the school. The onlv elements needed to make this a reality are selflessness and brotherhood.
On January 20th, Mr. Garstang gave the address. His theme was loving one's enemies! He told of the great friendliness shown to him by the German people when he visited Germany after the First World War.
On the following Sunday, the sermon in the Chapel was given by Dr. James Smart. He reminded us that great things very often come from verv small beginnings. The great example of this is, of course, the Christian Church.
On February 3rd, the Rev. Peter Farrell continued Dr. Smart's theme and addressed the bovs on the importance of the small things of life. Individuals are important. Jesus told us that God cares for even the little sparrow.
Our next visiting speaker was the Rev. Brian Whitlow who took as his text the line, "The Word was made flesh and dwelt among us". Mr. Whitlow reminded us that Jesus is the Word and the Way to God.
On February 17th, Principal Armitage preached on the subject, "Re- ligion in Life". Religion has been a main part of the lives of the nations since the beginning. Religion played leading roles in the lives of our late King, George VI, and of his father, George V.

After morning chapel service on Saturday, March 1st, two more national flags were presented to the school to be hung with the five other flags on the back wall of the Chapel. The Mexican flag was presented by Soules and Macorra and that of the Argentine Republic by Mossman.
On March 2nd, the Rev. F. H. Canon Wilkinson of St. Paul's Church, Bloor Street paid us his annual visit and spoke inspiringly on the subject of "vision" in our lives.
On March 23, the address was given by Doctor Hendershot. In his sermon he compared life to a race with Jesus as the goal.
On March 30, the last Sundav of the Winter term, Dr. Harold Young preached on the theme "Look to This Day". Our opportunities are not far away, but right here.
On April 20, the first Sunday of the Spring term, the Rev. R. G. De Marsh spoke on the subject "What am I going to do in my life". He ad- vised us to train ourselves to serve our fellow men. We should do our work to the best of our ability, for as we live so are we repaid.
On the remaining Sundavs of term the speakers in evening chapel will be the Rev. N. R. Burke, Dr. F. H. Cosgrave, The Rev. J. de P. Wright, The Rev. G. M. Grant, and the Headmaster.

EASTER TRIP '52
During the Easter holidays Mr. Gibb conducted a tour to Eastern Canada for some of the boys who were not going home. The tour consisted of Montreal, Quebec City and Ottawa. The group was composed mainly of bovs from the Lower School with a few from the Upper School. Alto- gether fifteen boys went on the trip.
We left Toronto, from the Union Station, on the morning of Friday. April 4th. Late that afternoon the train pulled into Montreal, where we alighted and headed for the Laurentian Hotel, our "home" for the next two davs. During our stav in Montreal the weather was very dismal and wet, so that we did not see many of the sights. Early the following Mon- day morning we departed for Quebec City, where we arrived that after- noon. After getting settled in our hotel most of the boys took a look around the town. Quebec appealed to me as a very quaint city and. in many ways, resembles a French town transplanted on the shores of the
44 St. Andrew's College Review
St. Lawrence. The following clay we went on a tour of the points of interest in and around the city, and we saw many historic places. These included the Plains of Abraham high above the mighty St. Lawrence, the Citadel which overlooks the river, the first church in Quebec and many others which you read about in the history books. I found this extremely interesting as it is nice to see a place that you've read about so much. Other places we visited were Montmorency Falls, the Shrine of Ste. Anne de Beaupre, the narrowest street in North America and numerous sights in Quebec City itself.
The next day, Wednesday, saw us on another tour, but this was of a different tvpe from the previous one. This was a tour through the plant of the Anglo-Canadian Pulp and Paper Mills, and it was a very complete tour for we saw practically everything that could be seen in the large mill. It was very interesting and we appreciated it very much. On Thurs- day, which was the 10th of April, we returned to Montreal and stayed there overnight. The train trip was really something. It was a rather warm dav and the train was packed with people going to Montreal for the long week-end. The car I was in was an older model and before the train pulled out of the station most of the windows were opened, but as soon as the train got moving the windows were quickly shut for cinders from the engine started coming in. However, this didn't remedy the situation altogether because cinders were still sneaking in until we reached Montreal. It wasn't a very clean ride!
On Cood Friday we left for Ottawa, where Mr. MacFarlane took charge of the tour. We got more or less settled in the Chateau Laurier and then set out on a tour of the capital. The tour covered most of the city including the parks, public buildings, embassies of the various foreign governments, and the residential areas. We also toured Hull, just across the river in Quebec. The Parliament Buildings occupied our attention on Saturday morning. This was a very educational part of the tour, seeing where the laws of the land are made. Guides showed us through the House of Commons and the Senate Chamber, and we also went up in the Peace Tower from where you get a wonderful view of the city and surrounding countryside. On Sunday some of the boys went on a jaunt to one of the places where the sap from the maple trees is gathered and where maple sugar is made. Those who went were rather disappointed because the sap was not running that day and consequently' there was not much going on. We rested the next day and on Tuesday left for Toronto and back to school.
All told, the general feeling was that the tour was a great success, and it was very interesting to see the larger cities of Quebec and the capital of Canada. I'm sure all the boys enjoyed the trip and our thanks go to Mr. Gibb and Mr. MacFarlane for arranging it.

ON THE DEATH OF THE KING
The King is gone, the star has died;
And darkness reigns instead of light.
The Empire's bells are all a'toll,
All speaking of the life just passed.
England staggers 'neath the blow
That's caught her in her deepest woe;
And will she make the long steep climb,
That's steepened now the King has died?
O help is needed now if e'er.
As all must know the sorrow there.
Not just as one of passing grief,
But such as love can only bring.
And sorrow, here I hope won't cripple,
England's undying will to win.

Editor's Note: This article written by Mr. Massey for the Review when he was in the Fourth Form at St. Andrews seemed to be particularly
appropriate. Many boys will be crossing the Atlantic cither this summer or next and we thought that the comparison with a crossing of almost fifti/ years might be of some interest.
THE RETURN VOYAGE
What a great ship she looked as we walked down the landing-stage at Liverpool! What power and beauty she showed all the way from bow- sprit to stern, and from masthead to keel!
Once up the gangway and past the small knot of officers at the bulwark, I watched the great incoming streams of passengers. What a motley throng it was! The tired homeward bound tourist family was there, and the alert business man on important errands, the triumph-expecting theatrical troupe, the experienced traveller taking things as they come, the man of state on an international diplomatic mission, the determined- looking young man in search of new-world fortunes, the leisured English nobleman travelling for pleasure, or the young peer out a-seeking heir- esses, "don't you know." And then there was another inflow at the second cabin gangway, and still another and greater one at the steerage end,— a throng made up of hopeful and expectant emigrants, some to be dis- appointed, others to prosper. So indeed a diversified multitude was filling the great vessel.
At last the call,— "'All those not going, ashore!" is heard, and shortlv after the gangwavs are shifted, the whistle blows, the great hulk slowlv recedes from the land, and we are off.
46 St. Andrew's College Review
The sail down the Mersey and through the channel to Queenstown is pretty, and Queenstown is very attractive. The proper thing to do here is to go ashore with the mail tender, which enables one to step on real Irish soil and have a taste of jaunting-car for a few minutes before the tender returns to the steamer.
And then after thousands of bags of European mail are safelv stored away in the hoid, we steam out of the harbour, while perchance a man-of- war flits across our bows. And then off the bleak Irish coast, with its grim-looking ruins adorning the rugged cliffs, past the famous lighthouse on the Fastnet, and out into the boundless deep.
Xow the inevitable roll or pitch commences; and main- have had their last meal for a week, and have prudently and unostentatiouslv retired to the welcome seclusion of their cabins. There are, they sav, onlv three stages of sea-sickness. In the first stage the victim is afraid that he will die; in the second he cares not whether he dies; and in the last he wants to die.
There is a charm about the life on shipboard which can be found nowhere else. To begin with, formality is practically left at the harbour mouth, and anybody is, by an unwritten law, at liberty to speak to any- one else without the unseemly nuisance of an introduction. And then there is the delightful routine of the day, which is something like this: At eight o'clock the first bugle is blown in the companion-way, and vou will either have your breakfast in the dining saloon or in your cabin, which oftentime depends upon how much the ship has tossed about in the night. However, you are soon on deck with an interesting book from the library, and you think you will read for a while in your deck chair. But soon Miss Blank appears and starts to settle down in her chair, which is only second from yours. You immediately arise and help Miss Blank to get her rugs and pillows adjusted. And after you have looked up each others names in the passenger list and asked the stewards the particulars, vou are old friends.
After a while, perhaps, vou go down to the next deck and have a game of deck-cricket— a rather cramped though exciting substitute for the real game.
Not long before noon a gentleman will come along and will ask you if you won't put your name in the pool of the day. Be it known that the pool is a combination of gentlemen— there is also a ladies' pool— formed to bet (no, let us say wager) on the number of knots the good ship has made in twenty-four hours. Each one in the pool subscribes a shilling, and the gentleman whose wager is most successful is a fortunate gentle- man indeed, for he gets his own back and all the others besides. Well, we will say that you put in your bob and went on with the match.
At noon the whistle blows, proclaiming that the log is being taken, and an officer may then be seen on the bridge with a sextant, determining
St. Andrew's College Review 47
in some mysterious, mathematical way our exact position on the planet. Then the companion-way is crowded with excited passengers examining the chart; some on account of harmless guesses and others because of more harmful bets— especially harmful if you lose.
Soon the luncheon bugle blows, and the sea air causes a speedy descent to the saloon. The only fault to find with the three meals on board ship, is that there are not six or eight.
In the afternoon perhaps you promenade the deck, or watch some whales, or visit the engines it may be. This last is a rare opportunity. You are shown the great pistons, the throb of which you grow so accustomed to; you are taken down to the shaft-allev. where the huge shafts revolve that drive the screws, and perhaps you are allowed to peep into the stoke-hold where men, stripped to the waist, are working like fiends feeding the fiery monsters. In fact, the place with its frightful tempera- ture, the glare from the furnaces and the fire-lit figures, seems more like an inferno or Hades than anything to be compared to it.
After dinner perhaps you stand by the rail and watch the phosphorus in the water and listen to the sound of the waves as the pitching of the ship throws them out, or watch the lights of a distant liner.
Tennyson beautifullv describes this night scene:
I hear the noise about thy keel;
I hear the bell struck in the night;
I see the cabin window bright; I see the sailor at the wheel.
Such is the daily routine of life aboard, which is unbroken, except by the Sunday service and concert, at which the talent is apt to be remark- able.
This voyage is no longer a typical Atlantic crossing, but a particular voyage whose memory will linger long in the minds of the people of two continents, and especially the hundreds who were waiting at New York for friends from the old land. A cruel rumor had been set afloat that the ship had gone down in mid-ocean with all on board.
Late in the afternoon we entered the harbour and steamed majestically up the bay past the Statue of Libert}-, past myriads of steam tugs, great ocean greyhounds, gleaming ferry boats; past the enormous, ungainly buildings of lower New York, and at last slowed up bv the White Star pier. Then puny tugs came to the rescue of the now helpless liner, and straining every valve thev gradually pulled round our stern, and slowly the great vessel floated into the slip. It was a dramatic scene. The harbour was full of myriad craft of all kinds with their twinkling lights; a smoky pink afterglow still remained in the western skv, and the whistles of welcome from the manv boats resounded again and again. The two floors of the pier were thronged with eager, excited crowds, who

had thought until a few hours before that they had seen their friends on this earth for the last time. No wonder that their pent-up feelings burst lorth into cheer after cheer as the gangways were swung; no wonder that the ways were blocked bv the eager crowds, and that after davs of anxiety the people lost their self control when the "Cedric" at last came in.
C. Vincent Masse y, Form IV
ODE TO THE WEST WIND
At seven by a bell awoke,
To greet the morning fine,
We see through windows stained bv smoke.
Old Biggar give the sign.
Then in the window drifts the soot,
While shivering in our B.V.D.'s
We are engulfed from head to foot—
We treasure moments such as these.
Each roommate like a nigger looks,
We once were white as lambs.
Although we are not hung bv hooks,
We are two well-smoked hams!
We're onlv joking as you see,
The smog is really not so bad;
We like this life at S.A.C.,
If but a little heat we had!

A PARTING WORD
It is fine to yell yourself hoarse at games for "Old Andy's Sake", but school spirit goes far deeper than that. In order to be a true Andrean, one must always support the School. Even if we did get sausages twice last week, there is no need to broadcast it. It is all right to discuss S.A.C.'s faults with friends who are also Andreans but never with outsiders or in front of the younger boys. If we do. we betray our common cause.
If a junior does something that is wrong, we should correct him and punish him if the offense warrants it. If a small bov is struggling with his skate laces or if he is having trouble with his Algebra, we should help him. Take even' opportunity to help the little fellows because this will make them feel that they are really part of the school, hence they will 'be better citizens when they reach the upper forms.
If a bov is awkward at certain things or has a habit that he cannot
o
help we should not make too much fun of him. Instead bv kindness and encouragement we should try to help him to get over his difficulty.
Senior boys have responsibilities as well as the prefects and there are many occasions in which a situation may be handled by a senior bov without having to await the arrival of a prefect. S.A.C. is a small place and the harder people work together to help her to help themselves the more she will help them and the prouder they will be of her.
On the night "before a game there is really no need to go to a dance. If we have been honoured bv being allowed to play on a school team, we should be prepared to make personal sacrifices. Smoking is an example that is well worth considering.
Faking injury on a football field seems to have come into vogue recently via professionalism. Let an Andrean never be guilty of this. In the first -place it is personally degrading and in the second is likelv to encourage the opponents. False modesty should be shunned. If we are congratulated, we should accept congratulations gracefully rather than try to pass it off with something like "I was terrible . Much the same is true of offering congratulations. Sincerity is the basis rather than just trying to make conversation.
Above all, let us make Andreans famous for the ability to accept an order, a punishment, a disappointment or a dutv without a grumble and with a smile on our face. Let us be true to ourselves and to "Andy".

WHERE THE FINISH ???
This race started many years ago with the invention of the automobile. At first.it was more in the form of rivalry, but now it has become a very serious problem. I do not mean Stock Car Races, and I do not mean Midget Racers. I mean the race between the cars we all drive. Up until
St. Andrew's College Review 51
a few years a^o. there was not much of a variation in the horse-power of our cars. It seems as if the horsepower has crept up. without anyone being aware of it. Last year however, the Chrysler Corporation announced a new 180 Horsepower engine. This had a very advanced design as far as the cylinder itself was concerned. They called it a hemispherical head. That seems what was to be the "Straw that broke the camel's back". Within a year, Cadillac announced that it was willing to go ten better, and strike at 190. This to me seems a bit stupid. They claim however, that it is the performance of the car. and not its speed that they are attempting to increase. Cadillac's performance never was very bad, but with this engine, it should be pretty good. Hudson came out at about the same time as Chrvsler with a Hornet six, at 145, the world's most powerful six. Buick, not to be outdone has reached 160, along with Desoto.
Let us take a look at the sports car field. Le Sabre, the CM. creation caused a stir wherever it was shown. Ford and Chrysler have each since then announced sports cars along the same line. Packard and Nash, doing their best to keep up with the Big Three, brought out their sports models. None of these are to be mass produced for the time being, although small quantities of Packards and Chryslers are to be found on the roads later in the summer. Nash already has a few.
Where is all this going? Will it be necessary for the American Congress to pass laws limiting the number of horsepower ratings? Somewhere along the line, someone will have to call a halt. CM. cannot be outdone by Chrysler, and Chrysler by Ford, and on down the line like a group of kids, seeing who can get the loudest tie.
Either the Horsepower has got to come clown, or they are going to have to give a free pair of wings and a propeller with each car!!

THE PINE
I saw her in the winter when snow clouds hid the sky. While north east gales were roaring Through her limbs which tossed on high.
I gazed at her in winter when the earth had long been dead.
A monster in the sky.
With storms about her head.
I saw her in the spring time when all the earth is young, When all the earth was greening, And blue above her hung.
I looked at her in spring time when gentle south winds blow, While summer's fast returning And sunsets later glow.
52 St. Andrew's College Review
I gazed at her in summer with the moon upon her hair, When all the land was crystal, And Mystery charged the air.
I saw her in the summer against an evening sky, When lightning lightly flickered 'Mong distant clouds piled high.
I gazed at her in autumn when summer's growing old, An emerald in the wilderness While all the earth was gold.
I saw her in the autumn when all the earth was bare, A princess of the woodland With softly sighing hair.
But as I see her now upon the forest floor, The woodsman's axe is biting Into her very core.
O gaze at her in sadness, her mangled branches tore, The limbs that lazy south west winds Will toss again no more.

THE BLIZZARD
The snow swept, swirled, and settled as the blizzard, with all its raging fury, tore through the northland wastes, quickly piling snow around a trapper's lonely cabin.
The storm had struck while Tom was asleep and as the cold grey light of the morning gradually forced its way through his frosted windows, Tom was roused by the howling wind. Quicklv he rushed to the window and peered out upon a storm that was fast packing snow around his cabin. Slowly he turned and started to make breakfast wondering all the while what he should do. Already, he realized, the trails would be blanketed by snow, but if he did not start for home soon the snow might become too deep to travel on. Deciding to leave at once, he dressed rapidly and prepared himself for the battle with these raging elements. With a final glance at the cozy fire he threw open the door and strode out to face this fearful foe that was endangering his life.
The snow was coming down hard now and swept by him in blinding gusts trying to drive him back, while the frost nipped at his face and hands, seeking to freeze everything it touched. The dav had fully broken now but there was no respite in this raging beast which tore at Tom's clothing and clawed at his face with biting fingers of ice. Tom pushed on thinking of the warmth at home which lav not too far ahead. Gradu-
St. Andrew's College Review 53
ally the wind increased and trees began to grumble and crack as this monster tore at their very heart. Suddenly a tree snapped and crashed earthward with a horrifying shriek as though its soul had been ripped apart. Soon the air was full of flying branches and Tom stopped, com- pletely dazed, as familiar landmarks were being obliterated on every side. Quickly the snow was covering the fallen trees and Tom was no longer sure which way the trail went. Afraid to stop he plunged on but soon the driving force of the storm began to take its toll and his steps became slower and slower. Frantically he looked about him for a familiar sign; but none was there and with a shudder of despair he sank to his knees knowing he was lost.
Gradually the wind began to die and slowly the snow settled over the trapper's frozen bod\-; another victim of that ravaging, merciless beast, the blizzard.

SALUTE TO A MATHS PROBLEM
Here's to you, our new little friend.
Our very best wishes to you we extend.
You made us so happy, so carefree, so gay,
Because with your coming came a half-holiday.
You should have heard Dad chuckle and chortle and rave!
Since the first of the week he was able to shave.
He said to the 'bovs' as he wrinkled his snoot,
"'How's that for Maths, Look, a square root!"
Jenny and Gertie and even Mugwump
Had come over to offer their praises to Stump.
He turned with a jerk; his eyes burned like viper's,
"Egad, from now on I'll be washing his diapers!"
Later that night on his back came a thud,
And who should it be? You guessed it— the Fudd.
He said with a grin as he looked at the pater,
"Dear John, you look sick, jud wha' da matter?"
So here's to you, Michael John Paul,
From the bovs up above, from those down the hall.
We wish you happiness in all that vou do.
And also our best to some swell parents too.

HOCKEY
In this day and age so great a premium is placed on the importance of winning games that the object of the game itself is entirely lost from sight. Games at School level should be a healthy medium of recreation and training. Unfortunately the daily newspapers have built up the importance of winning to such an extent that a good losing team receives little or no commendation.
How often are we able to pick up a morning sports page without read- ing that free for alls occurred in practically every game played on the previous night? Credit is given to a player who needled an opponent or opponents to such an extent that they tried to commit mayhem and were suspended from the game. In this absence the winning goal was scored and the credit given to the obnoxious needier. Smart strategy is often
St. Andrews College Review 55
referred to the coach who sends a very minor substitute into a game to pick a fight with the star of the opposing team so both will be suspended. An accepted practice sometimes resorted to is for a team which is leading in the dying minutes of a game to resort to such stalling tactics as numer- ous substitutions, arguing with officials or even feigning injury.
A good deal of the importance attached to the winning of games can be traced to the need for gate receipts. A losing team has little attraction for the average hockey fan. Also, a team which fails to play the "blood and thunder" type of play where the object is to soften up the opponent by any means legal or otherwise is not popular and is often criticized by sports writers.
We in the Independent Schools do not have to rely on gate receipts for survival nor do our spectators revel in the "blood baths" which are so common to-day. Are we not in an admirable position to set an example of clean play, emotional control and good sportsmanship? The old saving "it's not cricket" referring to anything that smacks of under hand methods is still a very good one. If all games were played in the same spirit as cricket games are played the bad feelings, accusations and counter- accusations would never occur. Let us all here at St. Andrew's endeavour to keep our games in the proper perspective and never have the finger pointed at us for anything that may be referred to as "not cricket".
The approach of Easter examinations brought to a close another very successful Winter Season of games and activities. All hockev and basket- ball teams gave verv creditable accounts of themselves in the won and lost columns and. what is more important, set an excellent standard of sportsmanship.
The First Hoekev Team was the best team to represent St. Andrew's in many vears. With an abundance of material to choose from it was difficult to fit the plavers into their proper positions and it wasn't until the half-wav mark in the season that maximum efficiency was attained. Carr, Robertson and Graham were probably the outstanding forward line in the Prep School Group outscoring their rival forward lines in all but two games. The second forward line of Lovering. Cosby and Angus were a good checking line with the happy knack of scoring a goal when most needed. Greaney, Mackenzie and Auld provided enthusiastic and ade- quate relief when called on.
The defence at times played outstanding hockev. Rather on the small side as defencemen go they relied on their skating ability to skate at- tackers off into the corners. Malcolmson and Clarkson were particularly good offensively with Gordon. Simpson and Fletcher being very steady defenders. Fisher in goal did not hit his stride until late in the season but gradually reached the heights he had attained in his former vears.

The Second and Third Teams maintained the high standard set by the Firsts and excellent replacements should be forthcoming to fill in the gaps left in the Firsts by graduation. Special mention should be made of Oechsle who had three consecutive shutouts and was generally outstand- ing. With any lesser rival than Fisher to contend with he most certainly would have been on the Firsts. Hill, Jones II and Reucassel from the Thirds improved with every game and should be able to make the big jump to the Firsts next year. As the summary of games which follows would indicate it was a most successful season and one which augurs well for the future.

The first game of the season was played against the Sahara Desert Canoe Club of Toronto. Malone and McLaughlin were high scorers for S.D.C.C. with three goals apiece while Lovering, Graham, and Robertson scored for St. Andrew's.
In the Deke game. Graham, Cosbv. Lovering, and Robertson doubled the score on the fraternity while Mollenhauer and Harvey beat Fisher tor the two Deke goals.
The second loss of the season came in the game against the A.D.'s. Carr and Graham with two each and Gordon with one accounted for the College goals and Logic led the fraternity attack with two.
The final fraternity game of the season was against Kappa Alpha. Malcolmson and Carr with two goals apiece were the S.A.C. high scorers, while Cosbv. Angus, Graham and Lovering added one each. Fullerton and Lawson scored for the fraternity.
A pre-season practice game was arranged with Upper Canada and was played in Aurora. Malcolmson scored twice and Lovering and Carr once each to give S.A.C. the goal advantage. The Upper Canada goals were scored by Lindsay, Standing and MacDonald.
The Saints met Pickering three times over the season and were vic- torious three times in games that provided thrills a minute and some excellent hockey. In the series Graham and Lovering scored five goals

apiece while Carr got four, and Cosby and Robertson each bagged three. Maguire was Pickering's top man with six with Stewart next best account- ing for three.
Graham and Malcolmson led the St. Andrew's attack against Ridlev and potted two each to help the Saints to a 6-5 win. Carr and Lovering scored the other two. For R.R.C. Evans and Rartlett each scored twice with Coupland getting the odd one.
Nichols School from Ruffalo spent an afternoon at S.A.C. and allowed their hosts a split on the hockev-basketball bill. Graham scored three for the Andreans which together with Robertson's two and Clarkson's single gave the Saints a two goal advantage over their visitors. Butsch, Fisher, Pickering, and Kahle scored for the Americans. The visit to Buffalo last year and the return visit from Nichols this year have been enjoyed so much that we hope that, at least the hockev may turn out to be a firm annual fixture.
The annual Old Boys game was played at the end of the season this year instead of at the beginning, and ended in a 4-3 triumph for the school. Carr scored two goals and Cosbv and Robertson one each, while the Old Bovs' marksmen were McCaulev. Currie and Malone.
St. Andrew's College Review 59
GROUP GAMES
U.T.S. Games The first U.T.S. game resulted in a loss for S.A.C. as the Toronto team scored eight goals against two for St. Andrew's. The line of Walker, Naylor and Cossar figured in every one of the U.T.S. goals while Carr and Lovering scored the S.A.C. pair unassisted. The first period produced five goals for U.T.S., and one for St. Andrew's although both teams had eight shots on goal. Although the margin in the remaining two periods was 3-1 still in favour of U.T.S., the Saints tightened up considerably.
The return game, played at Aurora, was one of the highlights of the season. The hockev was fast and good, and the suspense was terrific as the lead changed hands several times.
The first period was scoreless. Then Graham and Carr teamed up to put S.A.C. on the score sheet with Graham getting credit for the goal. Two minutes later, Naylor evened the score, and in the first minute of the third period, Cossar put U.T.S. one up as he scored on a pass from Walker. Then T. Carr scored unassisted to make the score 2-2. St. Andrew's took the lead again as Graham rapped in Carr's pass, but U.T.S. replied with two goals scored by Cossar from passes by Naylor and Labbett. Walker then scored to make the score 5-3 for U.T.S. Within the next two minutes, Carr scored from Fletcher and Malcohnson, Fletcher fired one in from the blueline, and Graham scored the winner on a pass from Robertson right in front of the net. For the next fourteen minutes everyone in the arena was sitting on the edge of his seat waiting for the expected U.T.S. rally but it failed to materialize and S.A.C. had defeated U.T.S. for the first time in years.
T.C.S. Games The first T.C.S. game was played in Aurora and was not one of the better games of the season as far as S.A.C. was concerned. In the first period, Arnold and Long put the visitors two up before many minutes had gone by. The lone S.A.C. reply came from the stick of Cosby. The second period was fairlv even as each team scored once, Watts for T.C.S. and Auld unassisted for St. Andrew's. McDerment lengthened the T.C.S. lead as he scored the only goal of the third period.
The return game was the last of the season for the Saints, and the team went to Port Hope determined to gain a split on the series. The game turned out to be one of the roughest of the season and twenty-two penalties including a ten minute misconduct were handed out. Mc- Derment scored both Trinity goals in the first period assisted by Watts. In the same period, a penalty shot by Currie was neatly blocked by Fisher in the S.A.C. net. The last goal of the game was not scored until 18.00 of the third period when Robertson scored the lone S.A.C. goal on a pass from Malcohnson.
60 St. Andrew's College Review
U.C.C. Games
The first U.C.C. game resulted in a victory for St. Andrew's. Robertson and Cosby each scored in the opening period with assists going to Graham, Angus, Malcolmson and Clarkson. Upper Canada scored its lone tally as Gardner beat Fisher on a pass from McKay. Robertson scored again in the second frame assisted bv Graham and Carr, and Cosby scored his second in the third period aided by Clarkson and King. The second game in the series, played at Woodbridge was disastrous for S.A.C. Although the score was tied in the second period, Upper Canada ran away with the game towards the end beating the Saints by five goals. In the first period, Leishman scored twice for U.C.C. while Lovering scored for S.A.C. assisted by Simpson. Graham scored three in the second period for St. Andrew's and Robertson got one. but U.C.C. replied with goals by Paul (2), Macdonald, and McKay. The last period was all Upper Canada and goals were scored bv Rogers (2), Connacher (2), and Paul.
Lakefield Games
Lakefield provided St. Andrew's with the only victorious series in "league" play. Carr and Graham set the pace for the Andreans in the first game with two goals apiece. Carr scored unassisted in the second period and on passes from Cosbv and Graham in the third. Both of Graham's goals were assisted by Carr. Lovering and Angus provided mutual aid for each other on their goals in the first and third frames. For the Grove, Ramsav. Ryder, Whittemore and Bovd were successful in beating Fisher in the S.A.C. net.
In the second game, played at the Peterborough arena, Graham ran Wild scoring five goals in the second and third periods after a scoreless first period. Robertson added a pair, one in each period and Lovering completed the S.A.C. scoring on a pass from Cosby and Simpson. The Grove goals were scored by Uren and Legate, the former getting two.

SECOND HOCKEY 1st Row— Ranisell, Richardson, Oechle, Harris, Albury 1. 2nd Row— Somerville, Mvlrea I, Hazlet, Scotland. 3rd Ron— Webster, Sanderson, Mr. Gibb, Omstead, Wilmot, Wansbrough.
SECOND TEAM
Under the guidance of Mr. Gibb, the Second team had a most successful season winning nine of their regular games. Thev lost to T.C.S. and U.C.C. but shut out both these teams in their first meetings with them. In the middle of the season, Oechsle, the Captain and goalie, held the opposition at bay for 224 consecutive minutes in the course of which, the team met and defeated T.C.S. , Pickering, and U.C.C. Although the goalkeeper is usually honoured for feats such as these, much credit should go to the stalwart defence in front of him and, of course, to the forwards who back-check and score goals. Our congratulations to Oechsle. Mr. Gibb. and the members of the Seconds on their performance this season.
Pickering Games Over the season, three games were played against Pickering and also a pre-season tilt in which our rivals on the hill scored their only victorv. High scorer for S.A.C. in the series, and indeed for the whole season, was Harris who went on a tremendous scoring spree in the third game to bang home six of his team's total of nine goals. Sanderson completed the scoring in that game and added to the pair that he scored in the first encounter. Hazlett and Albury tied for third place with three goals each.

St. Andrew's College Review
Lakefield Games
The two games with the Grove were great successes and provided good, fast, clean hockey. Harris was again high scorer in the series with three goals to his credit. Wansbrough and Sanderson each scored two, while Staples paced the Grove with one in each game. In both games, S.A.C. had a safe margin of play although the first game was won by only one goal.
Upper Canada Games
The first U.C.C. game was won by the score of 2-0 but the second was lost by the wider margin of 6-3. Somerville and Richardson scored for S.A.C. in the first, while Ramsell, Hazlett, and Sanderson tallied in the second. Akesson was high man for U.C.C. with two goals.
T.C.S. Games The Seconds played two games against T.C.S. shutting them out in the first, but losing the second, the last game of the season, by one goal. Harris again led the S.A.C. scoring parade with four goals, and Sander- son notched two.

THIRD HOCKEY TEAM
The Third Hockey Team had a very successful season. They won five games, lost four and tied one. This is not a sensational record but the spirit and determination with which the boys played more than made up for the games won and lost.
The Third Team had a home and home series with Hillfield, T.C.S. , and U.C.C. They beat Hillfield by two goals in the first game, but dropped the second by one goal. T.C.S. beat them once and tied them the second time. The Thirds lost to U.C.C. 2-1, but beat them 4-3. Ridley beat them by a small margin. Pickering's second team was defeated by the Thirds 5-3, and the Saints outscored the Aurora Young People's Association in two games.
The outstanding players for the Third Team were Jones II, Rolph, Hill II, and Mvlrea II.

SENIOR BASKETBALL
EXHIBITION
The 9 victories out of 10 pre-season games must have been an omen, for when the basketball team finallv hung up their shoes they had one of their most successful seasons to look back on.
The only pre-season loss was the game with Nichol's from Buffalo. The more experienced Nichol's team outplayed St. Andrew's throughout the whole game although the Saints managed to hold them to a score of 23-21 at the half. In the second half the Nichol's team seemed to break away from the close St. Andrew's checking. Also in this half three of our best players, Bickenbach, Garcia, and Paterson fouled out. Osborne was high scorer for the game with 22 points. Outstanding players for S.A.C. were Osborne. Patterson and Parker, and for Nichols, Jones, Richmond and Watson.
Out of the ten other exhibition games, seven were victories. The three others plus the Nichols game constituted our onlv losses of the season. In our two games with Eatons Junior Executives we managed to break even, winning one and losing one. This was really quite a feat for Eaton's Jr. Execs were rated tops and it was considered to be one of the upsets of the year when we defeated them in our first encounter. In the first game Osborne was high scorer for S.A.C. with the amazing total of 32 points. Ryall and Bickenbach also excelled for the Saints while Nelles. Adams, and McGreggor were outstanding for our opponents. In the second game, although Osborne managed to score 29 points, we were defeated.

St. Andrew's at U.T.S. Won 72-69
On Wednesday. January 23rd, U.T.S. played hosts to the S.A.C. quintet. It was the best and perhaps the closest game of the season.
St. Andrew's had a slight edge in the first half and at halftime U.T.S. was on the short end of a 31-29 score. In the second half U.T.S. put on the pressure but were not able to pass S.A.C. until about halfway through the third quarter. From then on the game was very close and a see-saw battle began to take place, first S.A.C. would take the lead by one point and then U.T.S. and so on. Finally with less than a minute to go the Saints scored to make the score 71-69 and then with about 30 seconds to full time they dropped in a free throw to clinch it.
Osborne scored thirty points for S.A.C. while his counterpart on the U.T.S. team, Floyd managed to score 29. For St. Andrew's. Osborne, Ryall and Bickenbach played well while Floyd, Morgan and Shiels were
outstanding for U.T.S

St. Andrew's set the pace all the way and were ahead 39-26 at half time. T.C.S. put forth every effort in the last half but the hard checking, accurate shooting S.A.C. team proved to be too much for them and the Saints' score advanced steadily.
Parker was high scorer for S.A.C. with 20 points. Houston, Thomas, and Walker played a very good game for T.C.S. while Parker, Garcia, and Osborne sparked the Saints to victory.

UPPER SCHOOL SKI RACE
71
The Upper School Ski Race was scheduled for February 15th and was run off on that day. Some think it was pure luck, but I am inclined to believe that the law of averages has begun to work for it, instead of against it, as it has for the last few years.
This year Munro won the race and set a new record of 39 minutes and 35 seconds. Shearson I was second, and Wilmot finished in third place. Munro won the Rowell trophy for the best time and also the Snively Handicap Prize. Shearson was second in both events with MacKeen placing third in the handicap competition. The House trophy was won by Flavelle House.
Fourteen bovs started the race and ten finished. Crosier hadn't gone more than 300 yards when he broke a harness and had to leave the race. This was the only casualty of the event as the others who failed to finish, for the most part, got lost. Some of those who did get "lost" completed the course but they took the better part of the afternoon doing it. Angus finished the race on foot after encountering some trouble with his skis. All the rest skied in.
GYMNASTICS
Great strides were made by the fifteen boys who turned out regularly from early fall till the middle of May. A noticeable improvement was made in the variety of movements which comprised each boy's exercise. It is now no longer uncommon to see giant swings being done on the high bar or full arm stands with changes on the parallel bars.

The weakness of our team was in the lack of form, dress, and prepara- tion of exercise. The matter of dress will be looked after next year but it is up to the individual boy to work on his form and prepare his exercise early in the fall.
We are looking forward to the team giving an excellent account of itself on Inspection Day.

As the Review goes to press the First Cricket Team has only played one game. This was an exhibition game against the Parkdale Cricket Clnb of Toronto which the Andreans won 103 to 65 for eight. Grant II was top man for S.A.C. with 48 rims. Osborne and Lovering were next with 18 and 15 respectively. Morlev scored 17 runs to lead Parkdale. Mr. Gibb bowled an exceptionally fine game for Parkdale with an average per wicket of only .33 runs. Prospects for Little Big Four honours look good as there are ten boys available who have played First Team cricket before. We wish the First Cricket Eleven the best of luck and may they win the Little Big Four championship.

EDITORIAL
The words, "I made haste, and prolonged not the time" can be found in the 119th Psalm. It is really amazing how those old Hebrew Psalms seem to fit in with our lives. Most of them were written thousands of years ago, bv elderly men for the most part, and vet how many of them seem to fit into our particular problems. They speak to us of our work, our dangers, our friends, our hopes and our jovs. Often we can find a practical motto in them to be acted on from day to day. "I made haste and prolonged not the time" could be one such motto. The Psalmist had made a habit of putting off until tomorrow what should have been done today. He found that after all, this putting off cost him more trouble than if he had done it at once. He tells us that he turned over a new leaf and decided that it was wrong to procrastinate. Most of us know what a wretched plan it is to be always putting off what must be done. We have a lesson to learn, a piece of work to finish, but we put it off. We say that it can wait until
St. Andrew's College Review 79
tomorrow when we shall have a few minutes when we can rattle through it: or, perhaps we shall not be asked for it at all: or, we will get up earlv and finish it or,— anything in the world except make haste and prolong not the time.
We know what comes of it: the work is not done by the proper time, or only half done or done hurriedly or badly and we get into trouble for it and have to do twice as much work at the very time that we wanted to do something else. People then point their finger at us and say, "I can't trust that lad; he is always putting off his work." Let us do our work at once, at the right time and then think of other things which perhaps we like better. We shall be much more contented and comfortable in the end. Nothing is more disagreeable than to have a number of undone duties on one's hands like so many millstones hanging around one's neck. We shall be happier and our work much better done if we learn the old Psalmist's secret, to make haste and prolong not the time.

Once again Macdonald House has had an outstanding year both academically and in games. In the Easter exams we note that in the forms up to and including Upper Second only two bovs had averages under 50%. This augurs well for the future.

We wish everyone good luck in the June promotion exams.

This is a short report from the Manager of the House Bank. At the be- ginning of the year, he innocently accepted the position at the request of the Housemaster— Little did he realize what he was letting himself in for. The normal amount of deposits ran at about three hundred and fifty dollars. Up to the time of writing, there have been one thousand, one hundred and eighty-three business transactions. Translated into knocks on a master's door, this represents a considerable disturbance. Banking is verv varied. The manager may become immersed in literallv hundreds of cents, loans and their repayment become involved problems that sometimes drag over weeks and American money adds an additional hazard. So far, however, most of the bank's customers seem satisfied.

MY EASTERN TRIP
During the Easter holidays, I went on a wonderful trip. We travelled through Montreal, Quebec City and Ottawa. Not only did we see many historical sights but many interesting museums.
Travelling bv train, our trip lasted twelve exciting days. Our group consisted of thirteen boys and was organized and lead by Mr. Gibb. Before we left Toronto, one of the bovs got left behind at the bus ter- minal. He made his way down to the train alone and found the rest of us rather annoyed at the delay. We finally stepped onto the train and had a safe trip to Montreal.
From Montreal we went to Quebec Citv and toured the city and its suburbs and saw Montmorency Falls. One morning while at Quebec we

went across the St. Lawrence to Levis. I watched our ship's bow crash into the ice and break it up into many pieces. In the ferry's wake was a churned up mass of ice and foam. The picture was taken at Levis beside some cargo ships which take food to villages farther down the St. Lawrence.
We stayed for about three days in each city. The trip taught us main interesting things about Eastern Canada and its geography. We were exceptionally lucky in having some excellent weather. I think that most of us enjoyed our trip so much that we would willingly do it all over
again if possible.

THE ADVANTAGES OF LIVING IN A GITY
Perhaps the most obvious advantage of living in a city is that there are more opportunities for one to get ahead in the world, than are provided in rural districts. But apart from that, cultural interests, such as museums, historical monuments, and things of that nature, which provide general knowledge, as well as interest, are not to be found in the country. One does not find these centres of interest, nor good libraries, in rural districts which are devoted chiefly to farming.
From the recreational point of view, there are additional advantages. Theatres and good playing grounds are facilities in this class. Of course, I must admit, there are some recreations and facilities which do not add to the welfare of anyone, such as pool halls, hanging around shabby
82 St. Andrew's College Review
restaurants, and drugstore cowboys. These, however, at least provide amusement for the small-minded.
In urban areas, I find, one is able to move around with greater ease and reach places faster. Public transportation systems (though sometimes on strike), afford fairlv quick and efficient service. Motor cars are found more frequently and run on better roads in the city, than in the country. Personallv speaking, I think that living continuously in a city, would be dull, but these simple ideas support my opinion, that living in a city offers more types of jobs or opportunities from which to select, whereas the country is chiefly devoted to agriculture.

A STORM
Above the city dark clouds gathered, while people in the streets hurried to find shelter. At first the rain came down in a small shower and then developed into a torrential downpour. The awnings above the store windows were soon ripped to shreds and many of them were blown away.
The cars and buses on the street, stopped on the spot by the terrific volume of water, honked their horns like maddened elephants. From where I stood, I saw three accidents. In the growing confusion, cars had bumped into the rear of other vehicles stalled by the storm.
The gutters overflowed with running water, cigarette butts, and various other pieces of refuse. These articles ran down the gutters to the sewers which were brim-full with rain water. Perhaps this storm was a good thing; because it carried away with it much of the city's grime and waste materials.
Suddenlv, the rain stopped. The water was not long in teeming down. The people came out of their shelters and went about their business as though nothing had happened.
When I looked up at the sky, I saw that the clouds had disappeared and the sun was again beaming down. Then I set off at a brisk pace for the destination for which I had been heading before the storm began.

LOYALTY
The door was partlv open. The moon's rays shone through the dusty windows casting vellow streaks of light on the unswept floor. On the top of some trunks piled high in a corner, a spicier methodically was spinning its web. The walls were a pale yellow and black marks from crating cases could be seen. Chunks of plaster hung from the ceiling and to one a dingv poster advertising sunny Bermuda clung desperately. The wind whistled through the room; the poster swayed to and fro. There was the monotonous banging of an unclosed window as it swung against the sill and back again. A stream of artificial light flooded the desk in the corner of the room. The dreary beats of the Morse code echoed continually through the stillness. An old man sat at the desk tapping out the code. A train whistle was heard in the distance coming nearer and nearer. Then it was right outside and the moon was cut off from the room. There was the clackety-clack, clackety-clack as it thundered on. The old man smiled triumphantly. He knew that he should not be there. He knew that the doctor had said that his heart would not stand the strain. He slumped over his desk, never to rise again. He was not there because he reallv wanted to be but because he knew that an inexperienced man could not do the job. He had one of the greatest qualities that a man can have, lovaltv. and he had been loyal to the end.

THE KING'S FUNERAL
I heard the faint ringing of remote church bells softly breaking the silence of the countryside. This was the morning of the King's funeral, and all England, and indeed many nations of the world mourned their departed monarch. His passing had been a shock to most people; few expected him to die so soon, yet today, people from all over the country came to catch one last glimpse of their ruler.
Being on an elevated position beside the road, I could command a \ iew of the entire procession which was now winding its way along the road from the station. First came a band, and then the gun carriage on which rested the King's bier. It was drawn by thirty sailors of the Roval Navv. Following the gun carriage rode the Royal Family all clad in black and they were closely followed by manv Kings and Presidents of foreign countries. At the rear came a band playing slow mournful music. As the procession passed me, one could hear in the distance the dull echoes of cannons being fired as a tribute to the late King. The sound contrasted queerly with the slow, rhythmic beat of the sailors' feet on the wet pavement. As the flag draped coffin passed, men took off their hats, women wept, and children gazed in awe at all the pomp and splendour of the occasion. The carriage in which sat the heavily veiled Queen and Queen-Mother went by followed by selected platoons from the armed forces, and bringing up the rear came the band clad in their traditional scarlet with black mourning bands sewn on their right arms. Slowlv the procession moved on until it turned a corner and was lost to my sight. I could imagine the rest: it would keep on going down the winding road and would then climb the little hill on which stood St. George's Chapel where the King was to be laid to rest.
■ The crowd started to disperse and most of them headed for their homes. A few stauncher individuals began to follow the procession along. Thev would not get far: the police would stop them as onlv special guests were allowed in the Chapel. I turned, a great lump in my throat, and went to lunch.

It all started in a tiny, dilapidated village with approximately two hundred inhabitants. The time was approaching eight o'clock. As I sped hastily through the barren streets of the small village, I spied a shabby, mala- droit looking man standing on the edge of the street hitch-hiking. Mavbe it was because he looked weak and hungrv that I gave him a lift. It was obvious that he had no money, but, as I had only sixty cents in which to pay my admission into a movie, I felt unable to render him monetary assistance. Fortunately, he was going to the identical town that I was.
St. Andrew's College Review 85
Finally we arrived at our destination. I stopped to let my travelling com- panion leave. He thanked me and I watched him awkwardly hobble across the street. A feeling of depression grasped me and I felt as though I had committed a crime by permitting that man to leave without money and looking so decrepit and seemingly hungry. As if in an utter trance I called him back and gave him fifty of my sixty cents. He took the money but only after my insistent persuasion. That left me with only ten cents, so. I decided to survey the town, being unable to attend a movie. While carelessly dawdling through an arcade I happened upon a bingo game. I decided to trv my luck, as the cost was only ten cents; precisely what I had. Slowly I lumbered up to a table and got a card and began partici- pating in the game. The game progressed and suddenly I realized I only had to get a forty-two to win. Luck was with me that night. Forty-two was the" next number called. I won and collected a prize of twenty-five dollars. While leaving the arcade it suddenly occurred to me that the cost of my charitable impulse had been returned to me fifty-fold.

MACDONALD HOUSE NIGHT
The Saturday evening in May known as Macdonald House Night is one to which many of the friends of St. Andrew's look forward. It is a night when the masters and the boys may be justly proud. The visitors are assured of a fine play and a glimpse of what goes on in a boys' college, to sav nothing of coffee and ice cream strawberries.
For the third time in the history of Macdonald House dramatics, the boys presented three scenes from Shaw's "St. Joan". The play is one of the best and, although difficult to do, the boys were able to carrv it oft with remarkable finish.
When any group does as much work as is necessary in producing a play, it is important that they learn lines which will be of some worth. St. Joan fulfils this much better than most plays, for which the cast will be grateful as time goes on. When the players appreciate the meaning of the lines they learn, not only will the words remain with them longer, but the production itself will be much improved. Shaw said of this work. "The question of Joan's burning remains a burnmg question to-day." If the bovs can state this question and if their presentation can get this across to the audience, the play will achieve purpose beyond mere enter- tainment. The dramatic point in the play comes in the trial scene where the balance between guilt and innocence must be nicely kept until the last. The audience must not be more in sympathy with Joan than with the forces ranged against her.
The boys must be highly commended for their well-learned lines, their stage technique and the scenery. The fine Bishop's Canopy and the vaulted arches reflecting the final burning off stage were most effective.

St. Andrew's College Review
The characterization given each part was good from the Steward to Joan "herself". This lad from Peru was a most convincing Joan and maintained the tradition of the part. The Dauphin plaved his part with ease and good stvle. The Bishop of Cauchon was very good, as was the Dominican Monk, and if the English Chaplain had spoken a little slower, he would have turned in an outstanding performance. In fact, the standard of acting in the Third Scene was uniformallv high. Perhaps the choristers held up the best example of enunciation and clarity, a thing we look for in an English play at St. Andrew's.
In the first scene we noted the difficultv the cast had in establishing the setting while latecomers arrived silhouetted against the footlights. The second scene had a better time; the Dauphin was at home in his part while courtiers bullied and the Archbishop lectured with gusto. But in the third scene the action really got rolling. The bovs seemed to feel the spirit of the inquisition and built the action up to a dramatic climax. The plav ends with a question and yet on a note of triumph and hope— a good plav well done, a credit to all who produced it and what we have learned to expect at Macdonald House Night.
Mr. Ives wishes to add his appreciation of all the work done bv Mrs. Wright and Mrs. Tomkins to the costuming of the complete cast. Joan's armour, in particular, was very effective. To Miss Rennie, also, is extended
St. Andrew's College Review 87
bv the director of the play, his sincere thanks for her capable handling of the make-up department. Mr. Ives was very appreciative of the con- tribution made bv Webb to the outstanding sucoess of the play. Webb certainly maintained the tradition set for this part by two former boys who have taken this difficult role. In fact, the director was most en- thusiastic about the willing co-operation of the whole cast.

The eightv odd boys who remained in Macdonald House during the performance of the play were anxiously awaiting the return of their parents and friends for the second but no less important feature of Mac- donald House night.
The Woodcraft display was again held in the Library and this year. although the quantity of work was not as great as in other years, the quality, in the opinion of many of the parents was much improved. The articles were many and varied and ranged from garden chairs to pipe racks. Newell presented no less than four beautifully laminated bowls that had been turned on the lathes, while Mizrahi had made a bowl and a pipe rack.
All classrooms were full of ingenious attempts to reproduce natural phenomena in miniature. Ridout had made a model of a pulp and paper

mill; Snvder and Mitchell tried to do justice to the magnificence of Niagara Falls; Robertson III presented a model of a native hut. Carlisle, however, was not content to exhibit one or even two models. With an amazing display of virtuosity he did rather more than his share and pro- duced some ten models ranging from a miniature gym made out of pipe cleaners to Oscar, a metal robot with illuminated eyes!
Macdonald House night has indeed progressed. This was the tenth anniversary and Mr. Wright tells us that the first evening was attended by three parents who were served refreshments in his house. This con- trasts with the packed theatre and the interest shown by parents in the work presented and shows without any doubt that Macdonald House night is a well established institution at St. Andrew's.

HOCKEY
At last the truth must be admitted! As the coach of the First Hockey squad, it is my considered opinion that this was one of the best all-round squads that we have had in the last fifteen years. The level of skating ability was a great deal higher than formerly. Boys who could skate quite well failed to make themselves places on the team because of the tough
St. Andrew's College Review 89
competition. In the past, we have had stand-outs like Garratt of 1942 or Nold of 1943, but we have never had so many better than average players as this season. Then, too, the team played as a unit; there was very little selfishness. The players could usually be relied upon to play their positions, to play with their heads up, and even to back check with some degree of enthusiasm. The cold statistics of the season's play tell the storv: we played fourteen games, won ten, tied one and lost three. Two of our losses were against the Aurora Public School. But in this connection, it must be recorded that we defeated the Public School for the first time in ten years.
In goal, we regularly used two players, Wood and Weiss. It is still a matter of opinion as to whom is the better. Wood's catching was very good but Weiss had greater agilitv on skates. Both made some good saves and both let in some easv ones. In front of them we had four defence- men: Beltran. Cosby, Screaton and Rutherford. Beltran, our captain, and Cosbv plavecl extremely well both offensivelv and defensively. Screaton carried the puck well but oecasionallv gave the coach gray hairs by bringing the puck out in front of his own goal and then losing it. Ruther- ford did not quite live up to the high expectations we had for him. For one thing, he never learned how to use two hands on his stick.
Amongst the six regular forwards, Mackenzie and Harris stood out as the best puck carriers, and at all times, when either was on the ice, represented a potential scoring threat. Mackenzie was our top scorer with eighteen points and Harris came second with fifteen. Donald and Hollidav played with Mackenzie on one line. Both played their positions well. Donald proved to be a very good play-maker and Hollidav special- ized in tapping the puck into the net. MacMillan was the centre forward oi the other line. As lie is only twelve, we shall expect great things for him for two more years but we do hope that he will learn how to shoot and how not to retaliate if he is subjected to any rough play. Our other left winger was Thompson. He had his best day against Ridley when he scored three much needed goals. The only other hat-trick was scored by Mackenzie against T.C.S. Our substitutes were Galway, Murray I. and Smith III. All three are good skaters and it was unfortunate that we could not use them for longer periods on the ice. Richardson was our official timer. Special thanks must go to one of our managers, Barnett, who presented the team with a First Aid kit. Mr. Holmes and Mr. Wansbrough refereed manv of our games. We would like to thank them both.
Hockev Colours for 1952 were presented to: Beltran, Cosby. Donald, Harris, Hollidav, .Mackenzie, MacMillan, Screaton, Thompson, Weiss and Wood.

GYMNASTICS 1952
The loss of all last year's team, except Newell, made for keen competition in the 1952 gym practices. The Macdonald House competition resulted in seven boys being selected to represent the school against the T.C.S. Junior School. This latter competition was won by a well-balanced T.C.S. team scoring 1971 points to our 1945 out of a possible 2175.
Newell worked hard on the new routines introduced this year and won both the House and the inter-school competitions.
Schulman II is to be commended for his efforts to overcome his weak- ness on the horizontal bar.
Albury, showing enthusiasm and determination, deserves great credit for his work.
Mackenzie II, a newcomer to the gym, took readily to the apparatus and showed steady improvement throughout the vear.
Thomson mastered the exercises but would do well to concentrate on smartness in approach and departure.
Clancy worked extremely hard throughout the year and made up in neatness what he lacked in mastery of the exercises.
Competition Results Macdonald House 93.02 75.1'- 77.5', 76.2', 68.6% 68.6% 68.6%
There was as well a junior section of gymnasts for whom a separate com- petition was held. These bovs are quite promising, showing great enthusi- asm. Notable amongst them were Murray II, 90.5%, who is very neat and should do well next year if he practices the more difficult routines; Shear- son II, 84.57. who has abilitv but needs to practice to improve his form; Rolph II and Snyder, tied at 81.5%, both lost most of their marks through poor form on the apparatus; Banfield, 80.5%, was very neat in his work but should learn his exercises more thoroughlv and Mazzei II, 80.5%. who can do the exercises but needs to be neater.

morning. The "lean'' vears have taken their toll of skiers in Macdonald House however, and only twenty-nine boys took part. Mackenzie turned in the fastest time of the day to add the Macdonald Cup to the Campbell Macdonald Cup which he won for the Cross Country in the fall. Galwav was four minutes behind him. and in third place came Ward. Ward has moved steadily up the list of winners over the vears and next year we shall expect to find his name at the top. We would like to thank Mr. Ward who was kind enough to show us some of his movies in the Little Theatre after the race. During the afternoon Mr. Ward also took a great many still shots one of which appears in the Review.

CRICKET
It is alwavs difficult to report on Cricket activities for this issue of the "Review" because practices have only been under way for a week or so. The weather has been good to us this year and the first practice was held on April 19th. From last year's team, only three members remain, Beltram. Mizrahi and Clancy, but there seems to be a group of talented vounger plavers who should develop well in the three weeks before our first game on May 28th against Ridley. We have played one practice game against the Under 16's and although the bowling was quite good bur batting showed lack of practice and we were defeated. If possible more games will be arranged with the Under 16s as there is a vast difference between playing a game and batting in the nets.

THE OLD BOYS' ASSOCIATION
The Review goes to press before the annual meeting of the association takes place, therefore the financial statement and the proceedings of the meeting cannot be reported in this issue, but they will be published in the Christmas, 1952 number.
The association has had a successful vear. The regular Old Boys vs The School games in football, hockey and cricket were exceptionally well contested. The golf tournament was a most enjoyable event, but the highlight of the year's activities was the Tudball-Goodman Dinner held last November.
The annual meeting of the association— Mav 17th— will have taken place by the time this is read, and the officers and council for 1952-3 who have been chosen by the nominating committee are as follows:

Donald McGillivray was elected president and Joe Nold, secretary.
Pat Hannan, who was the B.C. secretary last year, will be visiting the college before the end of term so we should have more information concerning the Vancouver Andreans in the next issue of the Review.
THE TUDBALL-GOODMAN DINNER
Last November seems a long time ago. It is difficult to write of an event that took place over six months ago, but many Andreans— both those who were present and those who were not— will probablv be interested in reading the speech made by our old friend, Tuddy, so we have prevailed upon him to allow us to print it. Reading it will recall a happv evening to the two hundred Andreans who were present.
96 St. Andrew's College Review
Mr. Chairman, Mr. Macdougall, Fellow Andreans: —
I thank you very much indeed for this beautiful watch and for this wonderful expression of your good will. I feel somewhat embarrassed — and very humble. I am deeply conscious that I do not deserve the great kindness and considera- tion which I have always received from Boys of St. Andrew's College — past and present.
I wish to thank Joe Macdougall for his remarks — not only for what he has said about me; but also for what he refrained from saving. When I was told that Joe was coming to speak this evening, I was greatly relieved— a great weight was lifted from my mind. During most of Joe's schooldays, I was away; and consequently he would know very little about me — merelv hearsay evi- dence. Furthermore, I am not well known in Montreal. I am surprised that Joe has been able to learn so much about me. Much of what he said is news to me. I feel that I am an impostor; that 1 am here under false pretences.
I can easily understand the gratitude of Old Boys to the master— so aptly named Good Man — who for so many years performed conjuring tricks and distilled strange odours for your amusement. During all those years — so far as I know — there was no loss of life, no serious injury. You have good reason to be thankful that these so-called experiments in the Chemical Lab. ended without serious repercussions.
My own cas^ is different. Those who attended my classes — perhaps 'attended' is not the right word — those who were present in my Arithmetic or Algebra or Scripture classes, and watched me writing on the blackboard, were never ex- posed to serious danger. The chalk dust may have caused temporary irritation of the bronchial tubes; but I have been advised by the Medical Faculty that the risk of permanent injury is slight.
It is therefore surprising that you should come together this evening and include me in this wonderful party. It is all the more surprising when I consider that, in the past, some of you have not always been in full agreement with me. There have been differences of opinion. There were occasions when diplomatic relations between us were strained. Looking back now. it seems to me that at times there existed a state of 'cold war.' I am very glad indeed that the 'cold war' never developed into a 'shooting war*. We were usually able to find a formula, to reach a compromise to satisfy both parties. Then again, fortunately, boys' memories are short. Memories crowd in on me this evening. They are all happy memories.
St. Andrew's College has been my home for many years. My wife and I have been very happy at the School, thanks to the kindness and courtesy and friendliness which you have shown to us.
I need not tell you how much my wife has helped me, and how great an interest she has taken in all the different aspects of the school life. I have been very fortunate.
Sometimes I consider that my life has been a failure. I have tried so hard to be unpopular. I believe that a good school-teacher — like a good sergeant-major — should be unpopular. I used to feel rather proud to think that I was unpopular. When I was put in charge of the Lower School, I was given the authority to grant or refuse lenve. Long before Molotov and Vishinskv had become famous, I used my 'veto'. I used to say 'no' to all requests. In spite of this I bore a charmed life.
I would parade the flats and visit the dormitories with only one small dog
St. Andrew's College Review 97
as bodyguard. I have so frequently taken advantage of your good nature. Sometimes I have been positively reckless. The first time when I was to have a tooth extracted, I went to an Old Bov — one whom I had frequently ad- monished when he was at the school. I can still see the look on his face; and I know what was passing in his mind. I had never offered him a local anaes- thetic when I sent him to the Headmaster's office. There was a moment of hesitation — and then his better nature asserted itself; and the operation was performed painlessly.
When I first came to the School, I spent many hours in the class-room of Form 1KB. I remember a rosy-cheeked boy in the front row who used to open and shut the door for me as I entered and left the class-room. When I entered, he used to call the class to attention bv shouting: "Cut it out, fellows!" He was only 14 years old: but he was a very kind, swnpathetie bow He used to tell me what homework the class was supposed to have done. He also advised me how much work to set for the next daw I do not know what I should have done without his help. After a few weeks, he invited me to dinner to meet his mother and sisters. I had a very enjoyable meal: and. after dinner, he took me aside. He advised me very strongly to give up the idea of teaching; and he suggested that I would be more successful in a Bank. I have sometimes won- dered where f should be now if I had followed his advice. Some vears later, when I was in charge of a House, I founded a bank of my own, in which bovs were encouraged to make deposits. I found it difficult to keep the boys' monev and my own monev separate. Fortunatelv. there was never a run on the bank; although, if necessary. I fancy I could have found a good reason for suspending payments.
I am sorrv I have hied vour patience so long. I have talked too much this evening. I should have learnt my lesson. I am reminded of the terrible fate which befell a man— a 'Star' performer — a man named 'Walter' — his other name I think is Thomson. I am told that he is suffering from frost-bite.
Again, on behalf of my wife as well as myself, I thank vou for your wonderful gifts, f thank vou also for this party; and for the opportunity of meeting you all this evening. But, above all, I thank you for the manv happv years spent with vou within the bounds of St. Andrew's College.

REUNION OF THE '46-47 OLD BOYS
Ox Saturday, March 1st a group of Andreans who were at the school in the vears between 1943 and 1947 met at the Royal York Hotel in Toronto for dinner. Jim DaCosta in reporting this gathering, writes: "Briefly, the original intention of our dinner was to see the boys. of our own year whom we naturally knew better than those preceding and following us at the school. Most of us had been at St. Andrew's at approximately the same time . . . and these are the boys you wish to keep in touch with, particularly in the vears immediately after leaving the school. . . . Our purpose was to keep alive the real friendships made during our stay at S.A.C."
The following Old Boys were present at this reunion and sent a message of greeting to the Headmaster.— Derek Chase, Jim DaCosta. Jim Rowland, Colin Hersh, Cren. Price, Jim Cobban. George Marshall, Don Beattie, Bob Beattie, Ian Schofield, Jack Malcolmson. A. E. Gray, Peter Head, Pete Angus. Lon Heit. Gord Hutton. Bill Skinner, Cliff McCauley, Murray Smith and Fraser Smith.
THE OLD ROYS' HOCKEY MATCH
The annual game with the school team was played on Saturday, March 1st at the Aurora arena. An account of the game appears in the sports section of this issue. It was a thrilling game and the Old Bovs were de- feated onlv in the final minutes of play. The Old Bovs were represented by Montgomery, Shortly, Brown, McCauley. Malone, Currie, Bell, P. Young, Fraser Smith. Dohertv. R. Worling, P. Findlay, Wansbrough, McMurtrv. B. W. Skinner acted as manager, assisted by Dick Henderson. Among the spectators were noted Gordon Rolph, Bradley Rowell, Ian Wishart, John Capon, Dick Sutton and Bill Somers. After the game the members of the team and visitors were entertained at the Headmaster's house.
THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS CLUB
St. Andrew's College has now' become affiliated with the Public Schools Club, 100 Piccadilly, London, W.l.
Last year the Headmaster wrote to the secretary of the club requesting that Old Bovs when in London be allowed the facilities of the club. In January 1952 he received the following letter from the secretary:
St. Andrew's College Review 99
Dear Mr. Ketchum,
Thank you for your letter of the 22nd November, 1951. St. Andrew's College has now been added to the list of those public schools with which we have affiliation arrangements. We should be very pleased to welcome any former scholars of St. Andrew's should they happen to be in England. ... No subscription is payable for the first month. If use of club is made for a longer period, a transfer fee of one guinea per month becomes payable, which places the user in the same category as an overseas member as far as finance is concerned.
Yours sincerely
C. Martin Sperry (Hon. Secty.)
The Public Schools Club was founded in 1909 with the object of establishing on inexpensive lines a rallying ground in the metropolis for the Old Boys of the British Public Schools. The new premises at 100 Piccadilly overlook the Green Park and are most conveniently situated.
THE D.S.M. HUNT CLUB
The D.S.M. Hunt Club is a hunting and fishing club in which onlv St. Andrew's Old Bovs are members. This club was founded bv a group of close friends while attending St. Andrew's together.
To start tins club, the six friends put up the sum of two hundred dollars each. The name D.S.M. Hunt Club was chosen. It stands for "Don't Shoot Me", or the initials of the six shareholders of the club who are Dobin, Smith, Skinner. Middleton, McCauley and Middleton.
We were faced with the problem of picking a good location for this club. This was a tough job. We wanted a place where it was virtually virgin territory, good fishing and lots of water for canoe trips; and above all, a place where the deer would alwavs be plentiful.
Harold Middleton and Cliff McCauley were sent to find this place. They went armed with bush maps and the names of several trappers and logging companies. After days of searching they finally got a lead. They learned of a spot wedged on the north west corner of Algonquin Park. The only way to get in was to fly; but according to a trapper the Chemical Wood Co. were going to build a road in there that summer. We were look- ing for just this opportunity.
After receiving this news and checking on it with the lumber company, Middleton, Smith, and McCauley set out to stake out a place for the camp and to establish the hunting rights there. Armed only with a tarp, food, axes and flv ointment, thev set out as our pioneers did to conquer the wilderness. A week later thev returned tired and bitten almost half to death by mosquitoes, but with happy smiles on their faces. Their mission was accomplished.
100 St. Andrew's College Review
Four months later the six members set out to take the lumber in. It was trucked over a road that was only half completed and almost impossible to drive over. We travelled to the head of Round Lake where we strapped two canoes together and freighted our lumber one mile down the lake to our camp site. The carpenters were taken in a week later and put to work. An interesting thing about our lumber was that in our search for land we found a little mill which had gone broke and the owner was glad to sell us our lumber at half price, providing we came and picked it up as he had no men or equipment to deliver the lumber.
The camp was completed and ready for use by October. That Novem- ber we organized our first deer hunt. We only shot one deer, chiefly be- cause we did not know the bush. That deer is the biggest that we have taken out since the camp was founded. The weight of the deer that was shot was two hundred and thirty-six pounds. The disgrace of it all was that there were seven S.A.C. Old Roys hunting at the time and one T.C.S. Old Roy. You guessed it— T.C.S. got the deer.
Since then the camp has gone ahead by leaps and bounds. We added a bunk room, a well equipped kitchen and a Delco system. The camp is a sportsman's paradise. In the spring of last year a party of five Old Rovs caught sixty lake trout in one dav. Last fall five more Old Rovs visited the camp and shot fifty-five birds in two days. Ry the time November rolled around we had quite a few letters from different Andreans wanting to come for the deer hunt. Fifteen were accepted and they had fair luck, seeing thirty-seven deer and shooting an even dozen.
The camp has a good reliable cook, excellent dogs, boats, etc. Any Old Roy wishing a few days of this type of sport can write to Harold Middle- ton who is the Captain of the Hunt and we are sure that something can , be arranged.
Yours truly
Six S.A.C. Old Roys

OBITUARY
Frederick A. Willmott (03-06). In De* ember, 1951. Fred Willmott died at his home in Beaumaris, Ont. He entered St. Andrew's at the age of fifteen and three rears later joined the staff of the Dominion Bank in which institution he served for sixteen years, being employed in branches at Cobourg, Lindsay, Montreal and Toronto. He was with the London Life Insurance Co. in Toronto for six vears and during the past nine years he was with the Beaumaris Boat House Co.
Nigel Lee Thornton ("40-42). Word has recently been received that Nigel Thornton was accidentally killed on Dec. 12th, 1951 while serving in the British Army in England. He entered the Lower Sixth form at St. Andrew's in 1940. and two years later enrolled at McGill. In 1944 he ivas commissioned in the Grenadier Guards, and in December 1947 he was appointed A.D.C. to the Commandant of the Royal Military Academv. Sandhurst. Eng. We have not been able to obtain any further information concerning his sudden death.
William James Elder ("40-45). On December 14th 1951. at Lac La Biche, Alta.. William Elder, while engaged in work with a firm of consulting geologists, died under tragic circumstances. When he was dri\ ing to an oil well, about 150 miles north of Edmonton, his car broke down and he undertook to walk to the nearest settlement. The tempera- ture was over forty degrees below zero and he probably grew drowsy when about four miles from his destination and made a fatal stop for rest.
Bill Elder was born in Port of Spain, Trinidad. He entered the third form at St. Andrew's when he was fourteen years old and received regular promotion. In 1944 he won the Hulbig Medal in Mathematics. He was a member of the First Football Team and the Swimming Team. He went to McGill in 1945 and was a member of the McGill swimming team. In 1947 he won the Intercollegiate 50 yard free-style swimming race. In 1951 he took post-graduate work in geology at the University of Texas, and in June of the same year he was employed in Edmonton by the company he was serving at the time of his death.
Guy Warwick Rutter ('05-TO). At his home in Toronto on Jan. 20th. 1952. Guv Rutter died. He had been associated with the York Knitting Mills for thirtv-three vears. He entered the Second Form at St. Andrew's at the age of twelve and matriculated five years later. He graduated in architecture from the University of Toronto. He was a gifted cartoonist and many of his drawings appeared in the Review during his days at the College.
In 1915. he joined the 4th Canadian Mounted Rifles, and in June of the following vear he was wounded in the Second Battle of Ypres. He had the unique experience of reading his own obituary on his return to Canada, as a report had been received that he had died the day after
108 St. Andrew's College Review
he was wounded. In 1943 he was elected a director of the Continental Life Insurance Co. His son, Scott Rutter, attended St. Andrew's for several years.
Guv Rutter was a popular boy at school where he was a Prefect during his last vear. His friendly and cheerful disposition endeared him to many Old Andreans.
Albert Edward Tertius Gooderham (22-25). At the age of seven Albert Gooderham entered the Preparatory Form at St. Andrew's. He was among the early sons of Old Roys to be enrolled. On leaving S.A.C. he went to Upper Canada College and then to the University of Toronto. He was formerly with the survey division of the Ontario Department of Highwavs. For the first three years he had lived at Allendale near Rarrie, Ont. He died at the home of his mother in Toronto on Feb. 25th, 1952.
Alexander McEwen Campbell ('05-12). On .March 5th, 1952. at his home in Toronto, Alexander Campbell died. He entered the Upper Pre- paratory Form at the age of ten. He spent the next seven years at S.A.C. and went to the Ontario Agricultural College in 1912. During the First War he served in the 9th Field Rattery and the 2nd Div. Ammunition Column.
Walter H. Goldstein ('01-03). The 133rd boy to be enrolled at St. Andrew's, Walter Goldstein, died in Toronto on April 6th, 1952 at the age of sixty four. Perhaps there are a few Andreans who remember the annual sports day of 1903 when Walter Goldstein threw the cricket ball over the heads of all the judges, the ball landing in the old McPherson orchard. Rut Walter did not excel only in throwing a cricket ball. In 1903 he was the winner of the Governor General's Medal, the Chairman's Gold Medal and was the Head Roy of the school. He graduated from the University of Toronto in 1907 and entered his father's business, Wm. Goldstein & Co., which business he owned and managed at the time of his death. He was for years an excellent tennis player and was a charter member of the Toronto Lawn Tennis Club. He was made an honorary life member of the club in 1951, having served for many years on the board of directors.

• DOUBLE THE GROWTH
• INCREASE THE FEED VALUE
• TREBLE THE MILK AND MEAT OUTPUT OF CANADIAN HAY FIELDS
The farmer of a generation ago would hardly believe his eyes if he could see the bumper crops being grown by new methods in today's hay fields. Or see 100 steers grazing on a pasture that would have carried only 30 or 40 head in his day.
Scientific methods have brought about a miracle in stepping up the amount of hay or pasture produced from a field. Yes, and modern farm machines, like the forage harvester above, have made possible new methods of harvesting hay to retain its green, succulent vitamin- rich qualities.
It all adds up to a much greater output of milk and meat per acre of land . . . increased prosperity for farmers ... a more bountiful supply of healthful foods for consumers.
