EDITORIAL

The pattern of life can be compared to a man who has built his own
ladder with the object of having it hold his weight in the future. When
eventually he ascends it he will undoubtedly find a number of weak
rungs. Under the strain, they may snap and he will tumble to the ground,
perhaps destroying a few of the weaker rungs as he falls. Obviously,
the fewer he has broken, the easier it will be for him to make a new
ascent. If he is a man whose sole concern is to reach the top without
adequately repairing the flaws, he is very apt to fall again, breaking more
rungs. If, on the other hand, he takes time and patience to replace
each one strongly, he will be able to stand on it in the future, and, mount-
ing it with discretion, eventually reach the top.

This man's exploits are comparable to our life at School, beginning
in Boulden House. Here we commence by endeavouring to construct our
first ladder, placing our right foot on the bottom rung, and beginning
our slow ascent upwards. If we have built our rungs of character care-
fully and solidly, we have cleared the way to a much less difficult climb.
When we enter the Senior School, we begin our task all over again.

2 TRINITY COLUEGE SCHOOL RECORD

Here we set up our ladder on a more important project. If we are
to reach the summit once again, we must immediately begin to repair
the perhaps shattered remnants of our first ladder. We must also apply
our previous experiences to the building of a well-founded ladder. It is
now clearly apparent to us how much easier it is if we haven't broken
too many rungs in the past. And while we are ascending for the second
time, we should realize how important it is to replace every rung with
the utmost care. No sooner do we reach our goal here than we are con-
fronted with an even more difficult climb as we enter university or the
world of business.

It is at this stage, surely, that we realize the importance of having
built a sturdy ladder in our School days. This, perhaps, is the most im-
portant stage of our building career as it presents the last opportunity
to make all the necessary repairs before we suddenly move up into a life
of personal decision and freedom where we are entirely dependent upon
our own resources of character and personality. As we build and fortify
every rung to withstand the more serious crises of life, we ought to look
to our days at T.C.S. and remember how we are taught to construct the
first two ladders, and realize just how important is the strength of every
rung in the structure of character.

In this, our sixtieth anniversary issue of the Record, we offer our
readers an entirely new format and hope that they will approve the new
gloss paper throughout the magazine which has enabled us to insert
pictures in their appropriate places. The cover on this issue reproduces
that of the first issue of the Record published in February, 1898. To
commemorate the occasion, we have extracted a few interesting items
from our past, a brief history of the Record, and a special literary section
of earlier contributions.

Letters to the Editor and contributions of concern to the Record
or to the School would be highly appreciated.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

THE MOST REV. R. J. RENISON, M.A., D.D. ('88-'92)

The whole School and indeed thousands of people in many countries
felt a deep sense of personal loss when they heard of Archbishop Renison's
sudden death on Sunday, October 6. He had been in good health all day
Sunday, attended church at Grace Church on the Hill and had a happy
luncheon party after which he watched T.V. and then lay down for his
rest. In the evening he had a sudden heart attack which did not seem
serious but he did not recover from a second attack which came after
he reached the hospital.

At the annual meeting of the Governing Body on October 16, the
Headmaster paid tribute to him in the following words:

"In the sudden death of Archbishop Renison we have all lost a
close friend, the School a devoted Old Boy and Governor who never missed
an opportunity to visit T.C.S., the Church an inspiring, selfless and
exceptionally gifted leader and Canada a most distinguished son who
had achieved renown beyond the borders of our land.

"So much has been said and written about our beloved 'Robert John'
that I shall not elaborate here: you know his life of devotion and service

4 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

well, and you know, too, the many talents which he used for the good
of others. We recall most vividly his all-embracing humanity, the out-
pouring of his heart and soul to his fellow-man. I was privileged to
know him well and to stay with him for the better part of a week in
the North. I shall never forget the unfailing admiration and love which
the people of that pioneer land gave to him wherever he went ; it showed
in their faces and flowed from their eyes.

"He came to T.C.S. from the Nipigon in 1886, was nick-named 'Paddy',
won all the snow-shoe races and became Head Boy in 1892. After a
brilliant career at the University of Toronto, he studied Theology at
Wycliffe and was ordained in 1896. In 1898 he went to Moose Fort and
Albany as a missionary and remained in that wild country for fourteen
years. In succession, he was Rector of the Church of the Ascension in
Hamilton, of Christ Church, Vancouver, Dean of New Westminster, Bishop
of Athabaska, Rector of St. Paul's, Toronto, Bishop of Moosonee, Arch-
bishop and Metropolitan of Ontario. During the first war he served in
France as a Chaplain and in the Second World War he was Honorary
Chaplain to the Air F'orce. He was elected a member of the Governing
Body in 1941. His weekly articles in the Globe and Mail have been read
by thousands and he finished his autobiography two days before he died.
He had the soul of a poet and few men of our generation could paint word
pictures so vividly and impressively.

"But it was his fellow-man whom he loved, whoever he was, wherever
he was, and none of the many thousands who knew him will ever forget
him, for when he passed by the sun shone, life was more sweet and had
more meaning."

R. C. H. CASSELS, Q.C.

The death occurred in Toronto on November 23 of R. C. H. Cassels
('89-'93), for nearly forty years a member of the Board of Governors
and for nearly sixty-five years a deeply loyal T.C.S. Old Boy. No one
who recalls the most trying and difficult days of the depression in the
early thirties will ever forget the strong and gallant leadership Mr.
Bertie Cassels gave in meeting the unprecedented problems affecting
the very life of the School. As Chairman and Secretary of the Governing
Body he carried an exceedingly heavy load, day by day, for several
years and the fact that the School weathered the successive crises of
fire, new buildings, financing, enormous bank loans, loss of half the
enrolment, and increasing indebtedness was in large part owing to his
determination, his decisiveness and his deep rooted belief that T.C.S.
must not be allowed to founder.

He came to the School in the days before the first fire when living
conditions were spartan and he often referred to the difference which
had taken place in the amenities of the School. After a successful four
years he qualified for admission to R.M.C., Kingston, and later to Osgoode

Hall. He was called to the Bar in 1900 and created a K.C. in 1921. At
the time of his death he was the senior partner in the legal firm of Blake,
Cassels and Graydon, formerly the firm of Blake, Lash, Anglin and
Cassels. On one occasion he appeared as Counsel before the Privy Coun-
cil in London. Law was in his blood as he was the son of Sir Walter
Cassels, President of the Exchequer Court of Canada, and he became
one of the most eminent counsel in Canada. His tall, handsome figure
and strong features gave a clue to the keen mind, the fine sense of fair
play, and the steel fibre of the character beneath.

For sixty years he was a member of the Toronto Golf Club, President
and Captain for many years. Club Champion in 1904 and 1906, runner-
up in the Canadian Amateur in 1902, President of the Royal Canadian
Golf Association in 1922 and Chairman of the Rules Committee for
many years.

He was a member of the Advisory Council of St. Simon's Church,
Toronto, and a generous supporter of all the Church's work.

In his death Canada loses a prominent son and the School one of
its most eminent Governors.

The School has also lost two other governors by death this term.
A. F. Mewburn died on September 22 in Calgary, Alta., and N. H. "Styx"
Macaulay of Aurora, Ont., died on October 20.

THE CHOIR

A quite satisfactory choir occupied the stalls at the beginning of
term ; fortunately the majority of the Senior boys returned but the Treble
and Alto sections were much depleted.

Carols are in rehearsal and the choir should be able to present a
short and varied programme on Sunday, December 15.

SCHOOL NOTES

We have recently received a number of most welcome gifts; Mr.
Douglas Higgins gave pepper mills for every table in the Hall, each one
surmounted by the coat of arms of one of the services in which Old Boys
have served. He also had a key drawn up showing the unit for each
coat of arms and mentioning the notable war record of T.C.S. Old Boys.

Mr. Ralph gave a donation to the Chapel Fund and several copies
of Hogben's book on Mathematics to the Library and individual masters.

Several parents of Old Boys have sent School sweaters, blazers, etc.,
for the use of boys.

We are also grateful to Mr. Justice P. H. Gordon, Ken Scott ('40-'43)
and Mr. Denison Denny for sending us back numbers of the National
Geographic which were requested by the Geography department.

The sudden death of Provost Seeley of Trinity College last August
shocked everyone; he was a most eminent educational and Church leader
and was admired throughout Canada and Britain. On numerous occasions
he visited the School and several times stayed overnight; his addresses
in Chapel were always eloquent and most distinguished in their content.
His loss leaves us all much the poorer.

BICKLE HOUSE

Excavation for the first major School construction project since the
completion of the Chapel was commenced on the 24th of last June. At
the south-east of Brent House the ground was leveled to the basement
floor of Brent and about two hundred feet to the east.

The plans for Bickle House were drawn up under the supervision
of Bill Greer ('37-'43) of Shore and Moffatt, Toronto.

On the weekend of June 28, Hurricane Audrey brought torrents of
rain filling parts of the excavations which had to be pumped out before
the first footings could be started on July 4. Masonry work began soon
after and work progressed steadily throughout the summer with no
adverse weather until the roof was completed.

The operation was under the invaluable supervision of the building
committee of the Governing Body, Messrs. Strachan Ince and H. L. Hall.
They kept in touch with every detail week by week and directed the
entire construction.

Mr. Prower was officially Clerk of Works but he also undertook
many other details.

The addition of Bickle House enables all boys to live in the main
School buildings for the first time since the beginning of World War H.
The new House has accommodation for thirty-six boys and apartments
for one married and one single master. The masters' quarters on the
bottom and middle flats of Brent have been enlarged to make them
more suitable for family accommodation.

When it was found that sound travelled readily through the walls,
one side of each room had plywood wallboards installed. This made the
rooms much more sound proof and added a note of luxury. The corridor
walls have been daringly painted in a shade known as taupe and the
ceilings a caramel colour. These paints were sprayed over a white under-
coat, greatly improving the bare cement blocks which gave the halls
rather a prison-like appearance. The boys' rooms will be painted during
the Christmas holidays; unfortunately, the final landscaping cannot be
completed until spring.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

The visitors, about sixty of them, with the members of the staff,
were entertained at luncheon in the hall. Mr. Argue Martin, as chair-
man, made presentations to Mr. and Mrs. E. W. Bickle. Mr. Hall and
Mr. C. F. W. Burns, Mr. Bickle and the Headmaster spoke briefly.

TRINITY CAMP

^f?

The School ski camp, given in memory of Pat Moss, is used as a sum-
mer campsite during two weeks of mid-summer. The campers are less
privileged children who have never been in the country before. Some mem-
bers of the Pat Moss club volunteer to act as counsellers under the super-
vision of Mr. Scott. This year, eight boys came
from Toronto and two from Montreal.

The camp is in a heavily wooded area,
about eight miles north of Port Hope and its
location is enhanced by a stream nearby in
which trout may be caught at the right time.

The boys arrived during the latter part
of July and were driven from Port Hope to
the campsite in the School jeep. On the way
there, the brakes gave out, and the vehicle
had to return cautiously to Port Hope for
repairs. The incident provided such novelty that few of the boys slept that
night due to excitement. They were housed in two large tents, five in
each. The next morning was a new adventure for the campers. After
a tent inspection, they watched a flag raising ceremony. A few days after
the boys had become accustomed to the ceremony, someone slipped an
egg into the flag. The next day on the unfurling, the egg fell out, but
luckily no one was hit.

During the day, the boys took enthusiastically to the various sports —
baseball, swimming, fishing, apple fights, and cow chasing. One exciting
day was set aside as a sport's day. The highlight of the day was a
mammoth, obstacle race. Here competition
reached its peak.

Several excursions were made to interest-
ing points in the area. The boys much enjoyed
swimming at Sylvan Glen, the Boulden House
picnic site. Rice Lake was invaded by the
campers, who, with two small outboards,
competed in races to the islands. There, they
had a grand picnic and all enjoyed the day
very much.

One trip was made to a large farm near >s— ."--».« -• ""•*
Canton. Excitement ran high as the boys discovered what farm life is
really like. On the way back, a stop was made at the Canton flour mill
which proved very popular with the boys.

For a break in th3 schedule, they took a couple of trips into Port
Hope for supper and a movie, making much welcomed stops at the 'Dairy
Queen' for soft ice-cream. Once on the way into the camp, those lagging
behind were ambushed and frightened out of their wits.

At the end of the two weeks, the fully
fledged campers reluctantly took leave of
Trinity Camp. However, all had a good time
and were anxious to return next year.

We are indebted to James Smith, Doug
Higgins, Ken Scott, Tony Ketchum, and Mr.
Scott for all their help in making the camp
a success. Ian Binnie gave very generously
of his extra time to the camp. He worked on
the Port Hope Guide during the day, and at
night went out to the camp to entertain every-
one with ghost stories. May next year be as successful as this year was.

THE SCHOOL CLUBS

The Debating Society, with Allen as President and Mr. Dale again
as Director, has started off well this fall and should have a most suc-
cessful season. Last year it was was decided by the Society not to par-
ticipate in debates with other schools. This decision stemmed from a
feeling that not enough boys within the School were becoming good
speakers, and from the reluctance of the Sixth Form boys in particular
to spend the time necessary for the preparation of a formal debate. There
were some good "pepper pot" sessions during the year, but few actual
debates, and it was felt that the success of the club was limited, because
the attraction to the School of the big debates was lacking.

By the end of next term, however, there will have been at least four
competitions with other schools, two of them away and two here. Our
speakers will visit U.C.C. in February and S.A.C. will come to us in
March.

On Friday, November 8, Gordon ii, Molson, and Osier debated here
against the U.T.S. motion: "Resolved that Canada is a satellite of the
U.S.A." Although the half-term weekend interfered with their prepara-
tions, the opposition spoke well against the convincing arguments of
Geoffrey Duckworth, Dick Jones, and Peter Jackson. The debate was
well attended, and after an almost equal diversion of the House, a large
number of speeches from the floor were delivered, showing at least some
of those present were interested in more than missing study. The judges
had to deliberate for over half an hour before deciding in favour of the
U.T.S. boys. Both teams must be thanked for providing a most interest-
ing evening.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 13'

At the time of writing, the three executives of the Society are pre-
paring to argue for the motion, "That all earth satellites should imme-
diately come under the control of an international agency." This debate
is at Ridley on Friday, November 22.

The Pat Moss Club has not yet been organized at the time of writing,
but we hope that all its activities will be as successful as last year's;
Mr. Scott and all former members of the Club must be congratulated
for their efforts in organizing the excellent Fair last March, and in
running the Trinity Camp last summer.

Mr. Bishop is in charge of the French Club of which Allen is Presi-
dent. There are forty members, the largest group yet, and instead of
the half-hour meetings on Fridays, the Club meets for about an hour
and a half every second Sunday. Some very worthwhile discussions have
taken place, and at one meeting. Miss Hammond, a teacher from Port
Hope High School, showed slides of Northern Ontario and of a trip to
FVance and Switzerland. The Club also hopes for a visit, sometime in the
near future, from Professor Jeanneret of the University of Toronto.

The Electronics Club, recently formed under the guidance of Mr.
Wilson, with Joy ii as President, plans to have a programme which should
prove of great value to all its members. Not only will radios be built
from kits as in previous years, but the boys will receive lectures which
should give them a firm basic knowledge of this vital branch of science.

Once again Mr. Hodgetts is directing the Political Science Club of
which Kennish is President. Nine new members have been recently
elected, and a programme as popular as last year, "Aspects of Life in
Canada," should enable the Club to enjoy another successful season.

Allen has worked hard in the Cadet Band training new trumpeters
and standards should be as high as ever, although a number of vacancies
have had to be filled. Six trumpeters played the Last Post and Reveille
at the town Cenotaph on Remembrance Day.

Mr. Scott is in charge of the Dramatic Society, and Thompson and
Stockwood are President and Secretary respectively. Nine new members
have been elected, bringing the total to seventeen. The Society has
decided to produce its customary one-act play at Christmas, and a three-
act play may be produced at Easter, although a one-act play may be
produced at Kingston as part of an Eastern Ontario secondary schools'
competition in February. The Kingston invitation was declined last year
because of the difficulty of finding a suitable play and of conducting re-
hearsals for it during the winter term, when the Easter play also demands

many practices; however, it is being considered carefully this year for
undoubtedly a first-rate production would enhance the School's reputation
besides being a new experience for all the actors. The Society must meet
ever-increasing standards of performance, for each year it is expected
that the plays will be as good as those of previous years, preferably
better; last year's production of the English adaptation of Moliere's "Le
Bourgeois Gentilhomme" was generally considered to oe a peak in the
history of T.C.S. plays. The Christmas entertainment is "Wife Required,"
a farce by Falkland Gary and Philip Kin. The actors, as is customary,
are all new members of the Society, and are being directed by Mr. Wilson.

The Photographic Society has got off to a good start this year with
nine members including two new boys. In its first meeting, Joy ii was
elected president and Gtordon, vice-president. Unfortunately, the enlarger
has suffered a breakdown but this, however, may be a blessing in dis-
guise. There is money in the coffers and Mr. Lewis is looking at the
prices of new enlargers.

The club is also thinking of exhibiting on the science board some of
the better pictures taken by the members. These would be changed every
week or so, and would give the club a chance to display its handiwork.

RALLIES

The first big rally at T.C.S. for the '57-'58 season was held on October
5, the night before the U.C.C. game. The School, led by the cheerleaders,
bellowed themselves hoarse in the gym. Pat Saunders, Bill Warner, Kip
Southam, and John Wilson provided the musical accompaniment. Dave
Stockwood introduced each Bigsider to the School. After the cheering
ended, the whole group formed a Congo Line and headed for the orchard.
More cheering began near the fire and the traditional burning of the
effigy of an opposing player was watched by the School.

The second rally was held on November 7 in the Assembly Hall. This
preceded the final and deciding game of the Little Big Four and the
excitement seemed to bring results the next day. Five cheerleaders again
led the School and although the yelling was somwhat ragged, it had
improved over the season.

TRINITY COL.LEGE SCHOOL RECORD

SPUTNIK

Great things have happened around T.C.S. since Russia launched
the first satellite in October. Mr. Lewis and several boys were up early
at one time or another trying to glimpse Sputnik I. Common-room gossip
reports strange doings on the third floor of the class-room block. Queer
noises have been heard coming from room X. Now that Sputnik II has
been fired, gossip has it that Skukniks will soon be launched and manned,
first by one of the many curs the School possesses, then by a specially-
trained and equipped Space Cadet. There are also reports that Russia
has used her satellites for the reconnaissance of Port Hope. The Crane
Sanitation Company, particularly, has aroused great interest in top
Soviet circles because of the standard necessities it produces, and the
harmonious beauty of the products. We hope that the Skuknik will bring
us similar information from Russia. We all realize what a tremendous
amount of work is involved in constructing a satellite, but it is felt that
our capable science will be quite successful. It is requested that all boys
maintain a constant watch for a parachute floating down towards the
physics lab. Suspended from it will be a most illustrious scientist, truly
earning his B.Sc. by a display of true daring and pioneering spirit.

THE SURPRISE WEAPON

Amongst its increased population of cats, dogs and students this
term, the School was privileged to play host to a vagrant skunk. To
begin with, this intruder was observed in the various window-wells about
the buildings. Some said that he was trying to hibernate. If so, however,
he wasn't very successful. T.C.S. is simply not the place for continuous
slumber. Every time he was annoyed in the slightest (e.g. when he was

cautiously poked with a long board by one of the curious spectators),
he made himself even more unpopular. He quickly became a source of
interest about the School, however, as well as a menace. Several times,
boys woke at night to find the skunk's suffocating odour flooding their
rooms. One night its presence led to some amusement and to an unexpected
renewal of the old rivalry between Brent and Bethune. Several Bethunites,
heedless of its pungent threats, scooped up the animal and deposited
it in Brent. When next seen, it was not in Brent at all but in a bathroom
of Bickle House making valiant efforts to obliterate the new paint job.
Needless to say, several who joined in this unwelcome raid were sprayed,
and amongst the damage, a First Team sweater-coat received a blast at
close range (outraged cries from the launderers, with a large extra charge
tor tomato juice). Since that episode, the skunk's visits have been less
frequent. We hope that he is not merely building up his forces (remember
last year's cats?) for a mass attack next spring.

A NEW TWIST TO AN OLD OCCUPATION

With the 'flu causing a lot of work to be missed and the months'
marks to be postponed a week, many are being forced to exert great
will-power and do an increased amount of study in order to prepare them-
selves properly for those Christmas exams, which inevitably approach
with phenomenal speed. Room-mates are taking turns studying outside
the room, knowing that they will always converse when together. The
more rugged individualists are trying to get sole possession of some
secluded study hole such as the elevators (some people must be con-
stantly on the move), the changing-rooms or the Chapel bell tower.
Others, with less enthusiasm but the same seriousness of purpose, park
themselves in various locations in the class-room block. A recent develop-
ment is the remarkable increase in popularity at night and even in the
early morning, of Room O, Room M and in Room E, in that order; for
some reason, however, habitual occupants of the last frequently complain
of strange kinks in the neck. Not long ago it is reported that the master
in charge of the H and K study hall was checking the other classrooms,
and when he found Room M in darkness, presumed no one was occupying
it. But just before he closed the door he noticed a figure facing directly
away from him, seated in one of the small desks. This individual was
staring absently into space with what the master soon perceived to be
a rather pleased and noticeably fishy-eyed expression. On being asked
how he could study with the lights off, this character, startled, apologized
profusely and explained that he was "just daydreaming." We salute
this grand new trend in the rather colourless sport of cramming.

Adair, R. K. ('56-'57). Although a new boy in
sixth form Ross settled in quickly, and played on
Middleside football and first team squash. He was
equally at home in the classroom and did well in
his senior matriculation examinations. Further-
more, he took a keen interest in clubs, and was a
member of the Political Science club, the Debating
society, the French club and the Mathematics club.
Ross was also a sacristan. Finally, for his spirited
efforts and general popularity, he was appointed a
House Officer, a position very seldom awarded to a
new boy. On Speech Day he was presented with
the Squash Prize for winning the senior tournament and was announced
the winner of the First Year Challenge Trophy. Congratulations, "Ken",

Binnie, W. I. C. ('SS-'S?). In the four years that
Ian was at T.C.S. he literally saturated himself with
extra-curricular activity, and ended up by being
the president of five clubs, the treasurer of one and
the secretary of another.

Let us start at the beginning. Outside of de-
tention, fan's new boy year was nearly uneventful
as he played on Littleside "B" football and Rabbit
League hockey. However, in his second year he
joined the Junior Debating Society, the Photo-
graphic Society, the Art Club and the Dramatic
Society where he made a fine start by playing the
comedy lead in "The Palmer Way". This year he also won extra Middle-
side Football colours and Littleside Hockey colours.

In his third year, Ian kept up his club activities and added the
Entertainment committee, the Record Staff, the French Club, and the Pat
Moss Club, of which he was Treasurer. As an MC at entertainments he
was unique. In football, Ian was injured early in the season but had
made the Middleside team. He also won his Middleside hockey colours.
This year Ian wen much praise for his leading role in "Journey's End" at
the Easter presentation of the Dramatic Society. For his hard work and
unceasing endeavors Ian was appointed a House Officer.

Of course, fan's last year was his most successful. Although his
shoulder injury recurred rather early in the season he was awarded his
extra first team Football colours. As bad luck would have it, he received
a knee injury in hockey which put him out for the latter part of the
season. Up to that stage he had been an aggressive defenceman, however,
and received his colours. Showing tremendous leadership in club activi-
ties, he was appointed President of the Dramatic Society, the Political
Science Club, the Senior Debating Society, the Entertainment Committee
(we shall never forget his famous "Swamp Olympiad") and was Editor
of the Record where he did a fine job.

On Speech Day, Ian won the Butterfield Trophy for the best actor,
the PoHtical Science Prize, the Armour Memorial Prize, and the Extem-
pore Speaking Prize. As a Prefect and Head of Bethune House, he will
be glad to hear that Lady Bethune is hale and hardy. Being Ex-editor,
Ian, I hope you drop us a line after you've read this edition . Good luck !

He joined the Senior Debating Society and the
newly-formed Mathematics Club. For his keenness
in athletics, Gerry received the Stewart award, a
well-deserved prize.

Chaff ey, C. E. ('54-*57). Charley, more common-
ly known as "Chuck", was a newcomer to Brent
House in 1954. hailing from Selwyn House in Mont-

bating Society in his second year, remained a mem-
ber for his sixth form year, and climaxed these two
years by becoming a finalist in the public speaking
contest. While in the fifth form Charley was a
member of the Pat Moss Qub as well as the De-
bating and Photographic clubs. Then in the sixth
form he became a Sacristan, joined the Political Science Club and was
made a House Officer.

Although Charley did not participate in athletics, he made a name
for himself as a scholar. He came to T.C.S. on a four year scholarship
and throughout his years here he continued to win many prizes. Charley
topped his career on his final Speech Day by winning the Jubiles Exhi-
bition for Mathematics. Charley is now at McGill University where we
wish him well in his future career.

many phases of School life and his ever-friendly personality will not soon
be forgotten. We wish him the best of luck at the University of Toronto.
but hope especially to see him back here often.

Embury, ,1. M. ('53-'57). John arrived in the
halls of Brent from his home city of Regina in the
fall of 1953. In his four years at T.C.S., he took a
keen interest in sports. In his first year he played
on Littleside hockey while in the next, he played
Littleside football also. Red's biggest year in sports,
however, came in sixth form. In his last year, John
was the captain of both Middleside hockey and
football. John's interests were not all confined to
sports, however. In his first year, he was awarded
the art prize for his work in that field. In his last
two years, he was a member of the Pat Moss Club.

TRINITY CODL.EXJE SCHOOL RECORD

the Senior Debating Society and the Pohtical Science Club. For his con-
tributicns to School life John was made a House Officer in his final
year, a well deserved position. Red was well liked around the School and
we send him best wishes for the future.

U. of T.

HaU, R. T. ('54-'57). Terry arrived in Brent
House halls in the fall of 1954 and immediately
took an active part in the life at T.C.S. In his new
boy year, "Bear" not only won the boxing competi-
tion but played on both Bigside Hockey and Bigside
Football, notable accomplishments for a new boy.
Terry also added his tenor voice to the choir and
the Glee Club and in his final year was selected as
Head Choir Boy. Terry's second year was as suc-
cessful as the first as he again played on the two
Bigside teams. "Bear" added his assistance to the
Record as a typist and was Head Typist in his final
year. Another of Terry's achievements was becoming a House Prefect
in '55-'56, his second year. In VI Form, Terry was an associate Head
Prefect and he fulfilled this position admirably by his continued contri-
butions to School life. On Speech Day he was awarded the First Year

his way through the middle term, managing to get
full Middleside Hockey colours and finished the year
by winning the first year Challenge Trophy. Next
autumn he was elected vice-captain of the Bigside
focotball team and was awarded a Distinction Cap

a Brent House new boy. In his last Boulden House
year, he had built up quite a sports reputation,
having played on first team football, hockey, and

obvious that Brent House was getting a prize when
Eric entered the Senior School.

In his first Senior School year, he played Little-
side hockey, winning extra colours, and Littleside
cricket, winning full colours. In his second year,
"Eve" decided to take up soccer and won extra

ing the winter term he played basketball, again
winning extra Middleside colours. Garth followed
this up with full Middleside colours in cricket for
a very successful first year. The next fall the
"Organ" turned out far Bigside and became a
valuable member of the Little Big Four Co-Cham-
pions, winning full Bigside colours. In hockey,
Garth made a great jump from the Rabbit League
in his first year to goal-keeper on Bigside. Again he was outstanding on
another Co-Championship team, winning full Bigside colours. His ex-
tremely fast bowling won him half Bigside colours in cricket. Garth's
interests were not confined to athletics, however. He was active in the
Political Science Club, the Debating Club and the Billiards Club. He also
won the French prize in his Form . We wish Garth the best of luck and
hope he will visit us often.

Young, D. A. ('55-'57). "Big Don" came to us W
from Lakefield two years ago and immediately set
his heart on making the Gym team; however, he
found this ambition extremely difficult to fulfill as
most of his activities and the gym didn't coincide.
He played Littleside football in the fall of 1955, and
starred in the nets for a strong Middleside hockey
team. The next year Don joined the Dramatic So-
ciety and spent most of the first term trying not
to be in the Christmas Play but played a rather
cool and hilarious King Arthur in "Idyllings of a
King" anyway. Don also played on Middleside that
fall until he was hurt. He joined the Debating Society and the Political
Science Club. Don completely surprised the staff at Christmas and
Easter with his high academic standing. He won the Lieutenant-Gover-
nor's Medal for English and was successful in the departmental examina-
tions. Don was an unpredictable but popular member of the VI Form

NEW MASTERS
Mr, A. D. Corbett

It is a pleasure to welcome Mr. Corbett back to T.C.S. after an
absence of one year. He was born in Shropshire and educated at Adams
Grammar School where he became captain of athletics and a Prefect.
He then entered St. Catharine's College, Cambridge, and took honours in
the Mathematical Tripos.

His career began as a Senior Maths Master at Heversham Grammar
School. He entered the service in 1940 as a member of the Royal Artillery
and was commissioned in 1942 seeing service in India and Ceylon. Mr.
Corbett again became a Senior Maths Master after the war but this time
at Kimbolton Grammar School. After two years there, he headed for
Jamaica and taught Maths and Physics at Munro College. In the fall
of 1955, he came to Trinity and taught his traditional Maths and
Physics, achieving an admirable record in the Algebra results that year
in VI Form. He helped Mr. White coach the Bigside cricket team as well.

Mr. Corbett then left us for one year to teach in St. David's
Grammar School in Pembrokeshire, Wales.

He is now teaching Physics, Algebra and Geometry and will no
doubt give the Cricket team a hand.

Mr. R. Kirkpatrick

Mr. Kirkpatrick was born in Toronto and went to U.C.C. preparatory
school for five years. He came to T.C.S. for another five years, being a
stout member for the Brent cause as well as a House Prefect in his last
year. He was on the Bigside Football team and was a member of the
Record Staff, Debating Society and a Sacristan. From T.C.S. he went to
Trinity College, Toronto, where he received his B.A. and thence to Trinity
College, Dublin, where he got an M.A. in philosophy. He began his career
as an audit clerk in Clarkson Gordon and Company with whom he re-
mained until 1955. Then he decided his interests lay with teaching. He
took a course at the Ontario College of Education in the summers of
1955-'56 and began teaching in 1955 in Perth Collegiate Institute.

3g TRINITY COLi.EGE SCHOOL RECORD

Mr. Kirkpatrick is married and has a two-year-old son. His subject
is Geog^phy.

Mr. N. R. Waddington

Mr. Waddington came to us at the close of the last school year and
gave a helping hand before starting the regular schedule this fall.

He was born in Toronto and educated at U.T.S., getting his Senior
Matric there. From U.T.S. he went to the University of King's College
where he acquired his B.A. and the all-round Athletic Medal. He next did
some post-graduate work at Middlebury College, Vermont, in French. His
career began at King's College School where he remained for five years.
Turning towards Toronto, he settled for eight years as Principal of St.
Paul's School for Boys. In 1941 he became an air-crew selection and
training officer in the R.C.A.F., mostly on operational stations on the E^st
Coast. Immediately upon leaving the service, he returned to King's College
School to be Headmaster for the next four years. Meanwhile, in 1945,
he had been elected Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts and Science. On
leaving King's College School, he headed for New York State and spent
a total of nine years at "Poly Prep". Country Day School and the
Eiastem Military Academy. He has taught for short periods as well at
Hillfield, U.C.C, and Bishop's College School in Lennoxville.

He has settled now at T.C.S. and we sincerely hope he will prolong
his stay. Mr. Waddington and his charming wife have a married daughter
in Florida.

He is teaching us French and Geometry.

Mr. T. A. WUson

Mr. Wilson was born in Maybole, Ayrshire. He was educated first
at Carrick Academy and later at Glasgow University where he received
an M.A. in Physics and Mathematics as well as a Diploma in Education.
He got his training as a teacher at Jordanhill Training College in Glasgow
and then began his career in Glasgow in Springburn Public School. He
then turned homeward and settled at Girvan High School. Here he
spent ten years as their Science Master. Mr. Wilson spent six years in
the service during the war as an observer navigator in the Fleet Air Arm
of the Royal Navy. Part of this time was spent at Yarmouth, Nova
Scotia, as the Senior Instructor of the Royal Naval Air Gunnery School.

Mr. Wilson is married and we are very pleased to hear that he has
quite recently become the father of a son. His wife and son will arrive
at the School during the Christmas holidays. Mr. Wilson is teaching
Physics.

Mr. R, F. Yates

Mr. Yates is quite familiar with T.C.S. though he hasn't seen much
of the School since 1941. To begin at the beginning, he was bom in
Preston, Ontario, the home of Canada's famed writer, Bruce Hutchison.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

He attended the Collegiate Institute at Gait and from there went to
Trinity College, University of Toronto, and acquired his B.A. His career
began as a master at Lake Lodge School, Grimsby. He remained there
for two years before moving on to T.C.S. Mr. Yates started off as As-
sistant Master in Bethune House in 1933, then became the Housemaster
of Brent in 1934. A third transfer found him in the Junior School. The
fourth and last post he held up until 1941 was as Principal of the Junior
School, now Boulden House.

He left T.C.S. in 1941 and took up a business career in Toronto,
most of which was in the Office Equipment business, and held his interest
until 1957. At this time he made what must have been a difficult de-
cision to return to the teaching profession to which he had devoted so
so much of his Ufe. We modestly hope that the opportunities afforded
by T.C.S. to share in the moulding of the younger generation may have
had an influence in bringing him back to us.

BRENT HOUSE NOTES

Brent House seems to have been comparatively quiet this term with
most members remaining in the confines of their designated cells. But
some interesting news has leaked through the keyholes and here it is. A
black and white visitor from the other House was let loose in our hallowed
halls but Tony, who has taken to riding mares, was the hero of the day
as he swept the invader, perfume and all, out the door. We see that
Blane has been "busy" with Lianne and Mikki. This Mikki may cost him
fifteen bucks. Oh well, happy hustling Hal! The BuUacon refused to
go to practice the other day — he insisted on watching the football movies.
Ewe is planning a trip to Minneapolis this Christmas to visit his "uncle".
Habedy, habedy, eh Tweet? Grundy just can't seem to get into top shape
after the week-end, but Tim has been playing basketball under the joyful
eye of Daddy Doug. Markus and Brigitte are having a race as to who
gets booted first. Gerry has been having a ball with the goods he got
on the train. We hear of a new "ultraphonic stereosynchronized" Hi-Fi
set and the owner has been scoring the flat for records. Would he care
for a tasty platter of Elvis? By the way. Bachelor Fuz and Jim still
don't dig this Rock and Roll sound. Along middle flat, the strains of
"Alouette" were heard after Wednesday night's game. A few characters
think Hamilton will win the Grey Cup. Well, not everyone is normal.
The Argos? Just wait'll next year. Tickets are in great demand for the
November classic — there must be a lot of interesting girls in Toronto.
Radio station LEO, 750 on the dial, has been off the air for quite a while.
No twenty-four hour hit parade? Well, how about that!

Up on top flat, Fats and Fred have a lot of entertaining. They even
invented a new drink, red ink and water. How's the laundry business,
Fred? Rumours are flying around about a red-headed Sputnik invading
our own Space and locking him out. If your life's in danger go to
Lerchie's arsenal, he'll protect you for a price. The Top Four Manner

has been playing a traditional war with top dorm. But it appears that
the cider was too much for Starnes. Booth has been seen at tuck quite
a bit lately. Could it be that his horses are paying off ? Glassco demanded
shorter fagging hours after the new boy race and got them. The new
boys might even form a union some day. MacAvity has been getting
pink envelopes from all parts of the globe. This boy gets around. Hot-
rod Barber peeled off in Toronto but left his continental kit behind. How's
life at the Benny, Gary? Band figures he'll give his skates to the Hall
of Fame. Why else would he put fifty coats of shellac on them? To help
him skate?

The story you have just read is true. The names have not been
changed, to expose the guilty. Any similarity to persons, living or dead
is purely intentional.

BETHUNE HOUSE NOTES

The Den of Iniquity

It's covered with ivy from the roof to the floor.
With the word 'Debonnaire' written over the dooi'.
But behind these hallowed walls we find
Hidden the clever criminal mind.

A little round man in his office we see
Plotting evil with evident glee
While from the depths come grunts of rage
As the hairy Mo paces his cage.

Then down the hall in a dirty shirt

Comes a shambling figure by the name of Dirt.

Following slowly after Doug

Is the well-eared boy called General Jug.

If in the musty halls we tarry

We come face to face with Barry.

In the corner there is a shape

Examine it closely— it's the low slung Ape.

On the bottom floor is the new boy's pal,
That friendly prefect known as big Al.
Limping along after Al comes Pete,
Two big wheels minus two feet.

Tall and wide comes the terrible two —
Big boy Stretch and Walmadoo
And now a combo to make you flip —
Fingers Wilson and Skylark Kip.

ORVILLE BURBOT AND THE DOG SHOW

Orville Burbot is a small man, with a Victorian nose and a mouse
brown moustache. " He gives one the impression that he is trying to
hide under his battered bowler hat; and perhaps he is. For Orville,
while not a Casper Milquetoast, does not wear his courage on his sleeve.
Perhaps because of his size or perhaps because of his lack of courage,
Orville has the largest St. Bernard that ever trod the floors of a modest
downtown apartment. The dog's name is Stephen. Stephen is large and
very friendly. This is an understatement. Stephen is so friendly that
his acquaintances are few. For to be a friend of Stephen is to run the
risk of death by drowning when he bathes your head and shoulders with
his huge ham-like tongue. Stephen consumes three tins of dog food,
(sometimes can and all) per day. He has to be walked before and after
every meal. To walk Stephen is to be propelled around the block at
high speed only touching the ground when Stephen stops to greet a
friend or enemy. Orville, therefore, is well accustomed to taking to the
air instead of taking the air on his daily walks.

For some reason, known only to the gods and higher beings, Orville
decided to enter his canine colossus in a nearby dog show. The day for
this event, a date that sends members of the local Kennel Klub into
spasms of horror, dawned bright and clear. At nine sharp, Orville, com-
plete with dog, arrived at the agricultural entrance. Before entering the
show, all dogs had to be checked. The veterinarian, a young man with
a hooked nose and horn-rimmed glasses, tried vainly to inspect the
bouncing St. Bernard. After a period of time he gave up, convinced of
the dog's health but not so sure of his own.

The next problem facing Orville was to bench his monstrous mutt.
The bench assigned to Stephen was about the size of the non-existent

TRINITY COIXEGE SCHOOL RECORD

brandy keg that should have hung around his neck. Orville placed the
dog's great shaggy paws upon the bench. Then he attempted to hoist
or crank the great beast's hind quarters onto the bench. When he finally
succeeded, Stephen's north end was facing the wall and he hadn't room
to turn around. Swearing rapidly in American and Sanskrit, Orville
tried to work the dog around into the called-for position. Finally he
gave up and both he and the dog sat on the floor.

For three hours they sat there, waiting for the judging. Finally,
Stephen's turn came. Stephen entered the ring at a slow gallop but
quickly worked up to a hell-bent dash around the ring ending only when
Stephen tripped on a small dachshund and both man and dog skidded
to a stop. Without batting an eye, Stephen sat down and slowly,
prophetically, scratched the back of his ear.

When the judge, a stout, red faced, walrus-like man approached, the
great dog pinned him to the floor and amiably lathered his face. The
little man whose face was now a deep shade of purple quickly awarded
the St. Bernard ribbons to Stephen and stepped neatly out of the way
as Orville and his merry mastodon roared out of the ring, bowling over
a doggy-looking woman with two Boston Bulls and backing an old man
into the front of a bulldog. Pandemonium broke loose.

The sun sank slowly over the edge of the Horse Palace as two
white coated officials solemnly escorted Orville plus dog from the show's
interior. Then, with measured steps, Orville began to march and for
once in his life, Stephen stayed sedately on the ground.

LIFE IN THE OPEN

Of all the beauties and charms of this earth, truly the wonders of
nature are the foremost. No stone marvel, sumptuous palace, or master-
piece of art, can fully compare with the beauty of a green forest, thick
with stately pine trees, mirrored in the limpid cool water of a secluded
lake. No costly modern lighting effect or fireworks display can match
the calm and peace, colouring and wonder of a sunset in the wilds; or
the breath-taking and awe-inspiring show of nature's might during an
electric storm. It is truly sad that fewer and fewer people every year
seem to appreciate the full beauty of these scenes. Perhaps it's because
they have never witnessed them, or perhaps because, having been brought
up by city-minded parents whose only concept of a summer holiday is
a visit to a crowded seaside resort or a trip to a great city like New
York, they haven't learned to stay away from densely populated com-
mimities without being lonely or even bored.

I remember, and indeed, I have no memories more pleasant, than the
summer I spent in the Alps, away from worries and school, carefree
and gay, taking long walks in the invigorating mountain air. I remember

TRINITY COLLEIGE SCHOOL RECORD 45

too, the echoes of the cowbells and the mountain songs of the climbers
drifting from valley to valley, growing ever fainter until they could be
heard no more. Nor could I ever forget the mighty rumble of the Lys,
(lily) white with foam, as it cascaded down, madly rushing towards its
rendezvous with the Dora from which the Po is born. Also the fields,
decorated by innumerable multitudes of daisies, daffodils, and carnations,
bluebells and sun flowers, sharply contrasting with the blank walls and
snow-capped peaks of Mt. Rosa, rising on three sides, a seemingly un-
penetrable barrier beyond which lay Zermatt and Switzerland, nature's
own country.

But one need not go as far as Europe to find all this beauty and
serenity. Canada is every bit as romantic, if not more so. It is an eternal
source of amazement to me that Canada has not been able to develop
her own resources, as other countries have done. The beauty of our own
Rocky Mountains can be said to surpass that of the Alps, as their immense
forest and varied wildlife renders them superior both in flora and fauna.
Tourist bureaus are flooded with Swiss leaflets and photographic book-
lets of the Alps, but spots like Banff (to name the most famous) are all
but unknown to the Canadian public, more so elsewhere. I have seen
many movies of hunting in Alaska and the Territories, up in the forested
uplands dotted by picturesque lakes, and inhabited only by moose and
deer, beaver and squirrels, and countless other species of North American
wildlife. Also of the dark woods of upper Quebec, crossed by innumerable
silvery streams where trout and bass swim gaily, free from the fisher-
man, and where every shadow brings back memories of the days when
the Hurons used to stalk noiselessly through the woods, carrying their
frail birch-bark canoes. I hope one day to own a hydroplane, so as to
be able to explore more fully these remote spots of our great country.

As I sit here writing, I can clearly see in my mind's eye our country
home at Rivodora, near Turin. I can see the vineyards and orchards,
and the familiar clump of chestnut trees, beneath which I spent the
happiest hours of my early youth. I remember the fields, and the smell
of freshly cut hay drying in the warm sun; and, best of all, the clear
ice-cold water trickling down from the rocks into our spring, arriving
as if from nowhere. Life in the country is a wonderful life: healthy and
full of the joy of living. I'll never forget the sight of the scattered,
white-washed houses, and the old stone bridge, as I looked down the hill
upon the village below; or for that matter, the aroma of freshly baked
bread as it comes out of the oven, the only real cure for an honest
appetite. The rooster announcing the break of day, the morning song
of the birds, the taste of fresh strawberries and ripe figs, all these things
will remain with me until my dying day, happy memories of life in the
open air.

Cares just don't belong in the places I've described, especially for
a young boy of eight in his summer holidays. Even a businessman tends

Aft TRINITY COUJBX3E SCHOOL RECORD

to forget his trials and tribulations if his mind is left to think in the
quiet of nature's realm. That is why there is no better relaxation than
a country holiday. There is no greater pleasure for a simple man than
basking in the noon-day sun, and no greater pleasure for an educated
man than lying in the cool shadow of a tree reading a Hemingway or
perhaps a famous biography. So the country is suited for all kinds of
people, even for the lively character who prefers to square-dance with
the local girls. For these reasons and many more, I firmly believe that
there is no pleasanter life than that in the open air, mankind's closest
approach to paradise. -^^ ^^"°' ^^ A.

THE PARABLE OF LIFE

"At night, anchored in the great waterway,
Awake, with not a soul astir on her,
A sleek ship which rests is called 'The Venture'.
The rollers roll; the halyards slap astray.
Now, silhouettes slink about while a ray
Of light appears to aid them. A keen 'Sir!'
Is replied to orders given. The lure
Of fresh west winds sail her swiftly away.
Light from one pin-point, dilates across the sky.
Feeling the dawn, the east wind starts to mount;
The ship gathers speed and sails toward the west.
Through sudden storms and beating blows they fly.
Until the west wind flows, the hours they count.
Until, the clouds parting, she gets her rest."

—P. T. Wurtele, VA.

SORROWFUL LADY

The old lady was stepping out of her bath as a roar shook her house.
The sudden noise startled her so much that she slipped and barely re-
gained her balance on the bathroom floor. She shivered at the thought
of falling and remained motionless for a moment. "That must have been
Jimmy," she thought. "Oh God, take care of him!" The plane's roar
died and she remembered her last telephone conversation with him two
days before. He had told her that he had been assigned to a very
important mission of the utmost secrecy and that he would be leaving
on Thursday for Los Angeles. From there he did not know where he
and his fellow pilots would be sent but he knew that Japan was some-
how involved. Jimmy had seemed in a rush and he had quickly and
tenderly said good-bye.

Her kind face soon resumed its normal composure, at least seemed
to, but her thoughts raced. How often before they had done this, carry-

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 47

ing her into fits of worry and apprehension. The last time had been
the worst and even though she had never told anyone her fears she had
come close to hysterics. She pondered the infinite number of jobs Jimmy
could have been given and with them she associated the countless dangers
that only an anxious mother could conceive. "This time," she thought,
"this time maybe, oh no. Lord, no, he'll be safe. He's always come back
before." She had dressed and gone downstairs but still the horribly
morbid fear persisted. The next day she felt even more apprehensive.
She kept arguing against good sense that she could feel it in her bones.
That feeling grew until she was in a state bordering on hysteria. A
friend phoned her and after speaking for only a few seconds asked if
anything was wrong. She professed to have a headache and said that
she would call back later. She hobbled over to her grey chesterfield and
almost collapsed on it. Her energies exhausted at this point, she fell into
a troubled sleep.

When she woke up it was dark and she realized that she hadn't
had any supper. She seemed to stoop far more on her way out of the
kitchen than she ever had before in spite of her age. She was just about
to open the kitchen door when the phone rang. It rang three times
before she walked into the hall and answered it. "Hi, mom!" a cheerful
voice sounded. Jimmy's mother listened in a state of shock. She couldn't
find a word to say. Finally, "Oh, Jimmy, Jimmy boy, are you all right?"

"Sure, Mom, of course," came the reply. "You're feeling okay, aren't
you?" he queried.

"Oh yes, yes, when will you be back?"

"Well, with a little luck I should be in on the early morning train
and we could have breakfast together."

"Oh yes, Jimmy, that would be fine. Did anything happen during
your mission, I mean, well, did nothing go wrong?"

"No, mom, of course not. Now stop worrying please. I'll see you
tomorrow morning."

"Good-bye, Jim."

"Bye."

"Jimmy's safe, Jimmy's safe, Jimmy's safe," she almost chanted this
phrase. She stumbled but clung to the table. She moved slowly. She sat
down in a chair, breathing hard and stared, expressionless. "So he
wasn't killed". She almost screamed this and there was again a note of
hysteria in her voice.

Jimmy's mother didn't sleep that night. She sat in the chair hungry
but not caring. "My son wasn't killed." The sorrow in her voice was
evident now. She actually appeared to be angry that her son had not
died. She reasoned that since she had gone through more than twenty-
four hours of almost unbearable frustration, worrying over him, he
might at least have been hurt. As it was, her highly emotional splurge
had gone to waste.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

It was now close to seven-thirty a.m. and she realized her son was
about to appear. As if in answer to her sudden expectation the doorbell
rang. She rose quickly out of the chair and made for the door. She
realized that she hadn't eaten for sixteen hours and she felt dizzy. Upon
opening the door another shock was in store for her. A stranger stood
on the doorstep. He tipped his hat and introduced himself as Bill Stover,
one of Jim's best friends in the force. She stepped back and invited him
in. They sat down almost immediately. She sensed a gravity in his
manner which kept her from asking questions. The Squadron Leader
spoke hesitantly, "I don't know quite how to say this but — well, Jimmy
was taking a shower right after our mission. I guess it was right after
he phoned you. He was stepping over a partition that separated the
showers and he slipped." The speaker didn't continue.

Her face, perfectly devoid of emotion, Jimmy's mother asked directly,
"Is he dead?"

After a pause, Bill Stover answered simply, "Yes, he is."

Relief flowed into the woman's face. "Oh thank you, thank you,
Mr. Stover. Yes indeed, thank you," and with a smile of contentment
she accompanied her bewildered guest to the door.

ADVENTURES IN AN ARMY CAMP

This summer I became an army recruit in the Hastings and Prince
EkJward Reserve unit. During seven weeks of basic training, a great
deal was learned about how the army operates. We had classes on
infantry training; the handling of arms; the art of camouflage, and the
like. One phase of the course involved a week at summer camp at
Niagara-on-the-Lake.

We left for Toronto by train, and on the arrival at Union Station,
were marched to the Cayuga dock. After an hour's delay, we boarded
the ferry and soon left Toronto far behind. Two hours later, the boat
docked at Niagara-on-the-Lake. Then we were marched off the boat
and into camp. At first glance, it was as if there were thousands of tents
in a sea of canvas.

After the assignment of camp quarters, we ate a turkey dinner in
the mess tent. By dusk, all were ready for bed. Unfortunately, no sleep
was to be had for bagpipes skirled throughout the night.

In the course of a week, we learned how to erect an effective barbed-
wire barrier, and also how to overcome this obstacle unhurt. There was,
in addition, a fire arms demonstration. A flame thrower mounted on an
armoured car was manoeuvred at full speed. The instructor later ex-
plained that it was possible to burn a building by spreading a mixture
of liquid fuel on it, and then lighting the liquid. The flame can travel
around corners and is useful for getting rid of the enemy in dugouts.
Apparently, the only way to escape the flame is to run.

TRINITY COL(LEX5E SCHOOL RECORD 49

There were several weapons displayed, among them a new recoiless
gun. We were warned that the backlash from it was extremely power-
ful and noisy. The operators had to wear earplugs. Two barrels were
set up about ten yards to the rear of the gun. On these a plank was set
with a number of sandbags on top. After the gun was fired, the remains
of the barrel were found on the far side of a three foot wall, twenty-five
yards to the rear of the gun.

To break up the week, there were two tours around the countryside.
One was to the Welland Canal where we saw a boat entering the locks.
From there we went to Niagara Falls and saw the sights. The last stop
was to view the famous Whirlpool Rapids, and to ride on the cable car.

The second tour was to the Sir Adam Beck Hydro Plant, then on to
visit Queenston Heights, and back to Old Fort George, which bordered
the camp grounds.

This course was beneficial in more ways than one. Not only was the
pay generous ; there was also the novelty of something new to be learned
every day.

STAG STALKING IN SCOTLAND

Through the telescope in its well-worn brown leather case, I scanned
the green hillside which was tinted with purple heather. I discerned tiny
flocks of sheep scattered amongst gray patches of bare rock. As usual,
the sky was overcast with fast-moving masses of gray and white clouds.
Below in the valley between us and the hillside, a stream flowed down
to a series of "lochs", each one filled with fat salmon and trout. After
letting my gaze wander for a minute over this green mountainous scenery
that was so magnificent in its very individuality, I returned it to the
opposite slope and before long had made out two deer lying down. They
were two young stags weighing perhaps sixty to seventy pounds apiece,
I was told by my gilley, who had also discovered them through his tele-
scope. We got up from the soft heather and continued along the valley
slope, for they were too small to stalk.

I had been awakened early that morning and the weather being
reasonably good, the shoot would be rewarding. Recently we had heard
from the watcher that the stags had moved to our part of the island.
After a filling breakfast of bacon, eggs, tomatoes, and toast, I put on
a pair of light waterproof walking boots, the necessary heavy rain wear,
and with some shells and the rifle, my gilley and I set out. Peter carried
the rifle, a coarse rope over his shoulder, along with a black satchel with
our lunch inside. Clad in a cap, jacket and trousers all woven from harris
tweed, which comes from the sheep there, Peter presented a picture of
real Scottish tradition.

TRINITY CXXLLEXJE SCHOOL RECORD

Now it was nearing noon and we had experienced a few showers of
rain by the time we reached the hill where McLeod, our watcher, would
meet us. We had not been long in the heather before he showed his head
above the hillside and strode up to meet us. McLeod was attired in heavy
tweeds and rubber knee boots and slung over his back was his tele-
scope. We all shook hands and there in the warm midday breeze we
discussed where the stags would be that day. We decided on a course
and started out down the slope. Every ten minutes or so, we would halt
and from a prone position, survey the areas upwind for deer. The sun
was fully out now and as the three of us marched through the thick
grass, every so often the two Scots would break into their native Gaelic
tongue which is very musical and refreshing to listen to. In that early
afternoon we talked of many things and I found that there is nothing
that a Scot doesn't know about his own land.

In spite of continually pushing on uphill, downhill, over rocks and
crags I found myself refreshed, not tired, by the time we stopped for
lunch. That morning we had only come across small groups of hinds,
the female deer, but it had been a good introduction to my first deer
hunt.

From our lunch spot, a far-reaching panorama included even the
foothills beyond the highlands right to the sea. Through a glass one
could command a view of the surf rolling on the beaches and several
estates interspersed amongst numerous "lochs". A storm passed to one
side of us but our slope wasn't rained on thanks to a strong prevailing
wind. After lunch we started along the ridge with Peter keeping a look-
out downhill for deer.

Suddenly he motioned us down, and crawling forward himself,
beckoned us on. As we all huddled behind the nearest protruding rock,
Peter let us peer around it cautiously. There, in the small valley below,
must have been forty deer. We inspected them with our telescopes but
unfortunately there wasn't a stag amongst them. Although disappointing,
this was not too surprising because stags did not usually mix with hinds
during the fall season. We carefully crept up the hill until there wasn't
any danger of our scent being carried down.

The next hour we spent in further search but all in vain. My hopes
had been buoyed up, but now the sky was darkening gently and still no
sign of game had been seen. We sat down once again. I began to think
how useless it would be to search the surroundings again. How bare the
country looked now. Then I noticed the gilley's telescope come to a rest
and move around one area.

"There's no mistake," he whispered. "There're twenty-one of them."
McLeod and I quickly focused on the spot and before long we had picked
them out. They were oblivious of any scent and appeared very peaceful.
Unfortunately, however, they were on a different estate making it impos-
sible to stalk them. They had good reason to be peaceful for the owner

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 51

of the estate was too old to lift a rifle. A decision had to be made quickly.
McLeod, also the watcher for the adjoining property, offered to hurry
over and give his scent to them. However, time was pressing as dark-
ness would be on us within two hours. It would take McLeod at least
half an hour to get behind the stags. We agreed to take the chance.
Peter and I settled down to wait, keeping a regular watch on the stags.
As the minutes dragged on, we discussed the best method of getting close
to the deer and figured out the natural route they would take. Finally,
the deer began to move down the slope gradually and we knew McLeod
had done an excellent job of letting them get his scent. He would now
stay out of the way until he heard the shot. We witnessed our game
cross the stream and eventually settle down directly below us.

The stalk began. We ran along the escarpment and scrambled down
the hillside making sure we were downwind of the stags all the time.
Keeping our heads down, we crept silently towards the herd of deer. A
few were standing, one with at least seven points on its antlers. Peter
stopped me suddenly and we then chose the stag to shoot. He then left
me and I worked my way forward on my stomach. Peter had brought
me within seventy yards of the stag and I decided to crawl another
twenty yards before shooting. The closer I drew myself, the slower I
went, until each movement was carefully thought out beforehand. I
could not understand why the stags didn't see me, for I could spy them
clearly. Later, I found out that this is due to their very poor eyesight.
Finally I came to rest about fifty yards from them. By this time every
muscle was aching from the long journey and I found myself panting
hard. Slowly I raised the muzzle of the rifle and set it in position against
my shoulder. I took a deep breath and aimed. The target just below
the front shoulder seemed tiny — just enough to aim at, no more. I fired.
Before I had seen what happened, Peter was facing me, eager with excite-
ment. He congratulated me heartily and only then I knew that my one
shot had been all that was necessary. I looked at Peter who was all aglow,
and wondered if I looked the same. We both ran forward together and
inspected the stag. Sure enough the huge seven pointer was dead and
although the bullet mark in the hide showed accuracy, I could only think
of it as luck.

Before long, McLeod appeared on the scene and joined in admiration
of the beast. We then tied its feet together with Peter's rope and slinging
the carcass over his shoulder, we started back. I shall never forget the
picture of the three of us marching homeward, the sun leaving an orange
glow in the sky above, while we made our way through the highlands
bound for Morsgail Loch and home. I have found that nothing remains
so fast in the memory as the peaceful satisfaction that comes after an
exciting endeavor.

BIGSIDE FOOTBALL

T.C.S. vs. DE LA SALLE
Wednesday, September 25, 1957. Won 8-6

Bigside, showing fine midseason form, came out on top in the first
encounter this season by defeating a strong De la Salle team 8-6.

T.C.S. opened the scoring early in the first quarter with a touch-
down by Jim Hyland who went over standing up on a ten yard run
on his first play with Bigside. The convert was missed. De la Salle came
back quickly and soon after Mike Wicklum made a six yard plunge for
the touchdown that terminated a long downfield drive. The convert at-
tempt was missed again, thus making the score even at 6-6. Bigside
managed to gain the lead again when Frank Stephenson kicked a beautiful
60 yard spiral into the end zone for a rouge. The half then ended with
T.C.S. leading by the slim margin of one point.

In the second half, the only scoring came early in the third quarter
when Al Shier for T.C.S. kicked a 60 yard rouge broadening Bigside's

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 53

lead to two points. Both teams drove hard and T.C.S. managed to drive
to the De la Salle one yard line but they were held by a very determined
defence. When the final whistle blew it halted a famous T.C.S. last quarter
drive on the De la Salle five yard line ending a very exciting and well
played game with Bigside emerging victorious downing De la Salle 8-6.
Outstanding features of the game were first, Al Shier's powerful
line plunges which drew in the defenders thus making Don Farnsworth's
end runs work very well. In the kicking department Shier again stood
out along with Frank Stephenson who produced the best kicking seen
at T.C.S. in some years. On the line, Ken Scott and Tim Kennish opened
many holes for Al Shier's plunges. De la Salle stood out with many
powerful end sweeps which many times brought them deep into T.C.S.
territory. Last, the deception in the T.C.S. backfield and the tackling
of Pete Perrin and Jim Hyland showed the fine midseason form the team
was in. This undoubtedly helped them win the game.

T.C.S. vs. PETERBOROUGH C.VJ.
At Peterborough, October 2. Won 12-0

For our first away game of the season, we were blessed with a fine
day but lacked three key players: Higgins, Scott and Shier. However,
despite some running-in pains, the substitutes did very well and the
offensive turned in an excellent performance. The ball changed hands
rapidly in the first few minutes, fumbles being prominent, and neither
side moved the ball any distance. Early in the second quarter Trinity,
on plunges by Lash and long end runs by Farnsworth behind Bowen's
blocking, went all the way for an unconverted touchdown on a spot pass
from Lash to Marett.

A sustained drive in the third quarter took P.C.V.I. to the Trinity
ten yard line but the big line held and T.C.S., in eight plays, moved the
ball right through the Peterborough defense for the second touchdown.
Marching right down the field on Knight's forty yard plunge. Trinity
completed their second when Farnsworth went over off tackle for the
score. The convert was again wide.

Although there were many exciting fumbles, the game featured
excellent tackling by Wigle and Perrin as well as superb running by
Farnsworth, who averaged twelve yards on seventeen carries. Bowen's
open field blocking was, as ever, devastatingly exact. The defensive line
contained the Peterborough attack and distinguished itself by earning
its first shutout of the season, perhaps a hint of things to come.

T.C.S. vs. ROYAL YORK

Saturday, October 6, at T.C.S. Won 30-S

Saturday turned out to be a warm, clear afternoon for the Bigside
clash against highly rated but overconfident Royal York Collegiate.

5^ TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

The match started dramatically. Kennish's T.C.S. kick off was re-
covered by Day, and four plays later Lash sent Farnsworth behind Bowen
on a pitchout for the first TD. Marett, in good form, converted it. Royal
York immediately rallied with a spectacular reverse touchdown pass
from Mair to L'Amore. By the end of the quarter, Marett launched a
fine 35 yard field goal to put T.C.S. ahead 10-6.

A second quarter fumble by Royal York was recovered by Dowie,
and once again T.C.S. was on the march. Nine consecutive ground plays,
including a 23 yard spinning run by Farnsworth, brought the ball to the
Royal York six yard line, and Barbour, having replaced the injured Lash
at quarter, sent Knight through the line for another converted touch-
down.

It took just seven plays from the second half kick off for T.C.S. to
cross the Royal York goal line for the third time. Every back fielder
carried during this march, which culminated in Farnsworth taking ad-
vantage of Scott's fine block to score from 11 yards out.

Royal York controlled the ball for most of the rest of the game, but
a determined defence deprived them of any further score; and an at-
tempted onside kick by Royal York backfired, Wigle scooping up the
loose ball and racing 80 yards down the sidelines. Marett again converted
to complete the scoring.

T.C.S. vs. UPPER CANADA
At Port Hope, Saturday, October 26, 1957. Won 22-0

The opening Little Big Four match was played in cold, sunny weather
at the School before a large gathering of Old Boys, parents and friends.
Flu having sidelined us for three weeks, it was like a season opener. For
quarterback Tony Lash, it was the second day of football since the Royal
York match.

Kennish kicked off for T.C.S., and the U.C.C. receiver was downed
on his fifteen yard line. A Blue receiver got behind the T.C.S. tertiary
on the first play, but the ball bounced off his helmet; incomplete. T.C.S.
dropped the kick, and U.C.C. recovered, but a fumble pounced on by
Levedag, gave the ball back to us. On the second T.C.S. play from scrim-
mage, Innes, the U.C.C. quarter, suffered a concussion tackling Lash who
averaged nine yards on fifteen plunges off tackle. Innes was out for the
remainder of the match. Again both teams lost the ball on fumbles; but
on its fourth attempt, T.C.S. marched. A long pass from Knight to Stephen-
son advanced the ball to U.C.C.'s twenty-five yard line, Lash powered off
tackle to the five, and Farnsworth on a pitchout sped around end behind
Scott for the touch down converted by Marett.

U.C.C. could not advance from the kickoff, and on the last play of
the quarter, Marett carried a reverse almost into the clear. On our next
three marches the College was able to confine us to one rouge (by Stephen-
son) but U.C.C. could make no first downs, and finally succumbed to the

plunging of Knight and Lash who carried the ball to the three yard line,
from which Hyland and Bowen duplicated the first touchdown. Marett's
convert attempt hit the post. Half time score: T.C.S. 14; U.C.C. 0. First
downs: T.C.S. 12, U.C.C. 1.

The second half opened with real drama. Stephenson dropped Mock-
ridge's third down snap on T.C.S.' twelve, and U.C.C. scooped up the ball
to run it over our line. However, an illegal block brought it back to the
twenty-two, from where the College moved to the T.C.S. one yard line
in four plays. Then occurred one of the greatest stands ever seen at the
School. On three consecutive downs, U.C.C. was stopped inches short of
a touchdown. An offside penalty gave the College a fourth chance, but
they were hurled back to the five yard line and the School took over.
Farnsworth and Lash ran the ball to the T.C.S. forty-five in eight plays
and the threat was gone. But the long lay-off now showed to effect.
Although Stephenson and Lash were able to make consistent yardage
behind Kennish, Scott and Bowen, two T.C.S. passes were intercepted,
and U.C.C. made first downs, only to lose the ball again on fumbles. Not
until the fourth quarter did the Maroon and Black march again. How-
ever, this last march was a brilliant mixture of plunges, end runs and
reverses. In twelve consecutive ground plays, the ball moved from the
T.C.S. eight yard line to the U.C.C. twenty, from which point Hyland
kicked another rouge. The next U.C.C. play, a pass, was intercepted on
the thirty-five by Cunningham who ran it back to the seventeen. Stephen-
son swept the end behind Scott and Kennish to U.C.C. 's one yard line,
and for the third time in the match Lash produced his pitchout, this time
to Farnsworth behind Bowen for the third touchdown converted again
by Marett. Three plays later the match was over, and Bigside had pro-
duced the most lopsided victory over U.C.C. in our history. Score 22-0.

In the words of the U.C.C. "Current Times" (for November 1) T.C.S.
had "unveiled the most devastating ground attack in Little Big Four
football. It was in vain that the College bench and spectators pleaded
for the line to hold. They gave it all they had, but when a tank tears in
with the speed of a motorcycle, what chance has flesh and blood to hold?
The Trinity backs were not elephants, nor were they blindingly fast, but
they ran their plays so smoothly and with such deception that even the
movie photographer was totally bewildered as to where the ball was going.
Combined with (according to some veteran observers) the finest high-
school blocking ever, the effect was wonderful to behold. Indeed it was
only fumbles and a strange reluctance of the Trinity quarterback to run
the ends that kept the score to a decent level. To their everlasting credit,
the College never quit in the face of such an attack" . . . The writer went
on to predict: "It is hard to pick T.C.S. over Ridley by less than sixteen
points" ! !

TRINITY COL/LEGE SCHOOL RECORD 57

T.C.S. vs. RIDLEY COLLEGE
At U.C.C, Saturday, November 2. Won 16-0

The Ridley match was played again on the fine U.C.C. field, for the
use of which we are most grateful. The weather was excellent and a
very large crowd had gathered to see the battle of two undefeated teams.

B.R.C. kicked off and Stephenson was downed on the T.C.S. forty.
On the first play, Stephenson followed Scott and Bowen in a reverse for
a fifteen yard gain. Four plays advanced the ball to the Ridley thirty-
five, and Stephenson kicked a single, Bowen and Scott trapping Masters
with a bruising tackle. Ridley advanced to the T.C.S. forty, but lost the
ball on downs, and again T.C.S. marched deep into Ridley territory, Lash
using every T.C.S. backfielder as a ball-carrier. Within seven plays,
Stephenson added another rouge, Masters again being snowed under. This
time Ridley could not advance the ball, and by quarter time, T.C.S. was
again in a scoring position only to be stopped by a clipping penalty.
Ridley's attempted march was halted when Higgins intercepted a pass,
and by half time a third single had been added in the same way as before.
In a sense, this first half was Ridley's. By a clever combination of cross
charging, knifing and drifting, they had thwarted three T.C.S. touch-
down drives. In previous games this strategy, combined with a quickness
to capitalize on any opposition blunder, had been successful.

It was not till late in the third quarter that the superior T.C.S.
blocking and tackling finally determined the issue. Starting at the T.C.S.
fourteen yard line, the School rolled down the field, averaging ten yards
on nine consecutive ground plays. Ridley was able to identify our plays
before they were underway, but they could not stand up to the blocking.
Bowen, Scott and Kennish sometimes took on more than one player at
a time. Stephenson, Knight and Farnsworth almost broke away on play
after play and the latter finally rounded the Ridley end from seven
yards out for an unconverted touchdown. The outcome of the match was
no longer in doubt. Ridley staged a last desperate drive, retaining the
ball for five consecutive downs, and advancing to the T.C.S. twenty yard
line early in the last quarter only to be halted there.

Within seven plays the ball was back in Ridley territory, and a B.R.C.
pass was intercepted by Perrin, who ran it to the Ridley twenty-six yard
line. Stephenson swept to the ten, Knight plunged to the four, and a
beautifully executed reverse play sent Marett over the centre untouched
for the second T.C.S. touchdown. Ridley's pass after the kick was inter-
cepted, and T.C.S. threatened once again, but settled for another single,
similar in every way to the other three. The T.C.S. defense then boxed
the Ridley ends and blanketed the tertiary, forcing Ridley to waste the
closing moments plunging. Final Score 16-0.

Never can we remember such blocking and tackling in a Little Big
Four match. The runs of the T.C.S. half-backs were forgotten in amaze-
ment at the swift running skill of the linemen. Scott, Bowen and Ken-

nish certainly had "their finest hour" in five years of football at
T.C.S. All our 464 yards were gained on ground plays. And when
Ridley was in possession, Wigle, Perrin, and Hyland sparked a series
of tackles which could be heard all over the field. Ridley is to be con-
gratulated on putting up a magnificent battle against superior opposition.
Lambert shone in a losing cause. It was gratifying to see that despite
the bitterness of the struggle, the best of good sportsmanship prevailed,
as it always has in T.C.S.-B.R.C. matches.

T.C.S. vs. ST. ANDREW'S
At Aurora, November 7, 1957. Won 11-0

The final match was in many ways the hardest fought and toughest
for Bigside. S.A.C., beaten in its two previous matches, had nothing to
lose and played with wide-open whole-heartedness. On the other hand,
Bigside was nursing some disturbing injuries acquired in the bruising
Ridley match. Barbour's knee prevented him from dressing at all, and
Knight's ankle sidelined him after the first few plays. (Dowie, Bowen,
Levedag were liberally taped, and Stephenson's hip was giving him pain.
Kennish had been ill for several days, and Scott acquired a severe
charleyhorse early in the match.)

With the whole School present and a perfect record so far, the team
failed to take an adequate warming up and was clearly jittery from the
first. Every member of the backfield fumbled the ball in the first quarter,
and offside penalties added to the frustration. Yet it was this quarter
in which we scored our only touchdown! Starting on the T.C.S. eighteen
yard line, Lash drew the opposition with two five yard plunges off tackle,
and then sent Marett bulleting on a reverse over centre for a forty-two
yard burst to the S.A.C. thirty-four line. Two plays later the same play
went into the clear, and Marett neatly converted his own thirty-one yard
touchdown. Newland cleared the way for Marett's runs.

The second quarter was a seesaw struggle in centre field, with neither
team able to capitalize on its gains.

Not till late in the third quarter did the T.C.S. blocking live up to
its reputation, and then Bowen led Farnsworth and Hyland for a long
run deep into the S.A.C. end. This drive culminated in a beautiful field
goal by Marett from twenty-five yards out. Hyland snuffed out a re-
newed S.A.C. march by intercepting a pass, and soon the Maroon and Black
were in position for Stephenson to kick for the final point. With time
running out, S.A.C. drove again into T.C.S. territory, reaching the thirty-
four before being forced to kick. Fortunately for us, the kick was short.
A few plays later the final whistle sounded, and T.C.S. emerged unbeaten
and unscored upon in Little Big Four play.

S.A.C. played perhaps its best match of the season, limiting us to
one touchdown, and gaining more yardage against us than either the

U.C.C. or B.R.C. teams had. Manning, Wood and Dobbin led the losers
both offensively and defensively. For T.C.S. it was certainly David
Marett's day, while the fact that S.A.C. failed to penetrate beyond our
thirty yard line can be attributed to a determined defence, sparkled by
Higgins, Hyland, and Perrin.

BIGSIDE SKETCHES

1. Kennish — Co-captain. Tackle. 190 lbs. Tim's sense of rhythm and

and his powerful blocking, set the pace for our attack. Whenever
he came on defensively, the opposition's offence collapsed. Despite
illness and infection, his efficiency never diminished and his skill
in teaching blocking techniques eased the coach's task. A leader
in every way.

2. Lash — Co-captain. Quarterback. 175 lbs. Tony's solid common sense

and superior football instinct more than made up for his inabiltiy
to analyze by logic on the field. His powerful off tackle plunges
and crushing blocks were essential to most of our plays. But above
all, his buoyant personality rallied and inspired the team at all
times.

3. Scott — Vice-captain. Guard. 155 lbs. Quiet but utterly dependable.

Ken used his speed, skill, and stamina to provide some of the
finest open field blocking ever seen at T.C.S., and he could always
be counted on defensively.

4. Bowen — Guard. 165 lbs. Blane and Ken were the terrible twins

of the T.C.S. offence. What Ken had in skill, Blaine duplicated in
sheer reckless zest. These two took a justifiable pride in their
blocking, that no backfield glory could have replaced. Blane, too,
was a "wicked" tackier.

5. Angus — Guard. 155 lbs. Ian was a hard working defensive guard

who never gave less than his best.

6. Barbour — Quarter. 155 lbs. A fine line backer, David proved him-

self also an effective quarterback on the cne occasion when he was
needed, leading the team to a TD against Royal York.

7. Cunningham — Guard. 175 lbs. Doug's success in mastering the tech-

niques of the running guard enables us to anticipate next season
with optimism. He tackle ;1 courageously at all times.

8. Day — End. 145 lbs. Jimmy's quick thrusts stopped many an oppo-

sition's play before it got under way. A fine tackier.

9. Dcwic — Tackle. 185 lbs. Mark developed rapidly this year, tackling

very well, and recovering opposition fumbles in a majority of our
matches.
10. Farnsworth — Half. 158 lbs. Speedy around the ends, but at his
slippery best when trapped Don used Scott and Bowen to set out
on many long spins down the sidelines. He scored six of our
thirteen touchdowns.

11. Gordon— End. 165 lbs. Peter developed into a dependable defensive

end, and made many fine tackles.

12. Hart— End. 190 lbs. Bob improved with every match. His blocking

made up in finesse what it lacked in fire.

13. HiRKin^— Centre Secondary. 165 lbs. What Doug lacked in experi-

ence and size, he more than made up for in determination and
reckless courage. As the defensive captain, he sparked the unfor-
gettable goal-line stand against U.C.C, and inspired a defence
which repelled every attack in the Little Big Four.

14. Hyland — Half. 160 lbs. Jimmy's ball carrying was always dangerous,

and he is developing as a passer and kicker; but his real strong
point this year was secondary tackling, at which he was a master.

15. Knight— Half. 160 lbs "Fuzzy's" plunging and faking were instru-

mental in nearly every offensive play. He is the kind of person for
whom a lineman loves to block. He was also a fine tackier.

16. Levedag — Tackle. 175 lbs. Peter was always dependable on defense,

and quick to recover fumbles.

17. Marett — Wingback. 160 lbs. Bubbling with rhythm, chunky Dave

came into his own this year, blocking with efficiency, and running
with deceptive fire. He averaged ten yards per carry!

18. Mookridge — Centre. 175 lbs. Brit's snapping was faultless, and he

blocked and tackled with precision and zest. He will be a mamstay
next fall.

19. Newland — Tackle. 195 lbs. Wally cleared the way on Marett's spec-

tacular runs ,and blocked well at all times.

20. Perrin — Wingback. 140 lbs. Peter is the best tackier I have seen

in Little Big Four football. From tertiary he often stopped the
ball carrier in his tracks at scrimmage; yet he was never caught
out of position on long passes. He also blocked well and was a
dangerous ball carrier.

21. Shirriff— Half. 135 lbs. Shifted into offensive halfback in the cham-

pionship match virtually for the first time, Peter plunged, faked,
passed, and tackled well. A promising player.

22. Smith — End. 155 lbs. A good blocker and pass receiver; Dick's per-

formance was always at its best.

23. Southern — Safety. 160 lbs. Bill added strength in tackling and pass

defending, and was never by-passed at safety.

24. St«'phenson — Wingback. 140 lbs. Frank distinguished himself as a

fine kicker, as a sure catch at safety, as an utterly dependable
tackier and pass defender, as a dangerous ball carrier, and as a
fine blocker. He did everything well.

25. Wigle — 160 lbs. Gerry developed into a dependable pass defender and

splendid tackier this year at tertiary. Deep in our end, he sealed
one defensive end. A most promising player.

COACH'S SUMMARY

The "esprit de corps" of Bigside 1957 justifies its extraordinary
record. There was no Maynard, Campbell, or Muntz to save the day if
the rest of the team played poorly; the team never did play poorly, and
indeed it clearly outwitted, outran, outblocked, and out tackled each of
its opponents. It was a beautifully balanced team, and full of rhythm.
This rhythm was the result of the complete absence of conscious in-
dividualism among the players. We experienced none of the usual
psychological problems that beset groups in such close contact. Never
did I heard a word of criticism among them (unless it was against one-
self). They spoke not of winning, but rather of what power their com-
bined effort could generate. They were at their rhythmic best in the
closing minutes of each of their matches. It is doubtful that we shall
ever have as capable a blocking trio as Kennish, Bowen, and Scott, all
of whom were potentially star backfielders. It is certain that we will
never surpass the spirit of positive friendly teamwork that typified every-
thing they did together, on and off the field. Working with them was
pure pleasure. Rather than being spoiled by their extraordinary success,
they will, I believe, apply the same spirit of dedication and co-operation
in meeting more important challenges.

— T.W.L.

Although Bigside attained the most outstanding result this year the
others must not be forgotten. Middleside, with a record of four wins and
two losses, moulded into a fast, hard-hitting team, again under the coach-
ing of Mr. Heard and captains John Shaw and Peter Barbour. Littleside
lost Mr. Landry to McGill this year, but Mr. Scott filled his place very
well, aided by James Burton and Norman MacEachern as his captains.
The Middleside and Littleside leagues, again run by Messrs. Armstrong
and Dale respectively, were once again very successful and have developed
some fine footballers for the future.

The Tennis Team, coached by Mr. Dempster and captain Tom Turn-
bull finished third in a very close Little Big Four Tournament.

MIDDLESIDE FOOTBALL

MIDDLESIDE vs. U.C.C.
At U.C.C, Saturday, September 38. Won 20-6

On an excellent football afternoon, T.C.S. Middleside prepared for
their first game of the season. On the toss-up, T.C.S. chose to receive
with Barbour running back about twenty yards. T.C.S. rolled down the
field far enough for Hodgetts to kick a single. Shortly afterwards the
Red team recovered a U.C.C. fumble and with two quick first downs
Barbour plunged over from the one yard line. The convert was missed.
A play, until that moment, unheard of in the history of football, com-
pletely out faked the defenders. A T.C.S. fast snap got away from the
half-back and the result was that the ball rebounded off the referee's
head into Barbour's hands. With fast thinking on Barbour's part, he
wheeled and passed to Wigle in the end zone. Braden's convert failed.

The third quarter saw Wigle recover a U.C.C. fumble and Barbour
then ran from the six for the major. Wigle converted. U.C.C. rallied
and Acheson scored but the touch was unconverted. U.C.C. threatened
once more but were stopped on the Trinity one yard line. The game ended,
T.C.S. 20; U.C.C. 6.

MIDDLESIDE vs. LAKEFIELD
Thursday, October 3. Won 17-13

In a fumble-filled, kick-crazy game the T.C.S. Middlesiders came out
on top 17-13.

In the first quarter there was no score and it appeared to be a dead
game. But in the second quarter the game caught fire when Paul Dick
kicked a fumble behind the Lakefield goal where they were rouged. Later
in the quarter, a Trinity kick was blocked, and Hurst of Lakefield pranced
down the field for the first Lakefield tally. It was converted by Reynolds.
Like the changing tide, T.C.S. rolled right back down for their first touch-
down. It was converted by Warner. Soon after, Hodgetts scored for T.C.S.
by kicking a rouge. Before the half McClelland of Lakefield stole a
second touchdown which was unconverted.

The only third quarter score came very early with Hugh Gordon
crossing for Trinity with a pass from Hodgetts, Warner again converting.

In the fourth quarter, T.C.S. again rouged Lakefield, Doug Wigle
kicking this time. With seconds left, Dave Knight intercepted a Lakefield
desperation pass and carried it to the Lakefield ten. Trinity drove to the
one yard line but were held there to the end, leaving the score 17-13.

TRINITY COIJ^EGE SCHOOL RECORD

MIDDLESIDE vs. LAKEFIELD

At Lakeflehl, Saturday, October 5. Lost 19-9

With a cool clear day at Lakefield, the weather was at its best for
the game. From the very outset, it was evident that both teams were
in for a hard struggle. In the first quarter, T.C.S. scored the first points
of the game with a rouge counting two. Lakefield retaliated, however,
with a touchdown and convert, both credited to their player Reynolds,
making the score 7-2. In the second quarter, Lakefield scored a second
touchdown by Scott ii on a slippery reverse play. The convert, however,
was not successful. The second half began with T.C.S. out to recapture
the game but again Lakefield proved just a bit too strong. Coons scored
another touchdown which was unconverted. In the last quarter, with
Trinity still driving, Peter Barbour scored Trinity's only touchdown on
a powerful end-run and Warner completed the convert. The game ended
with a score of 19-9 in favour of Lakefield.

MIDDLESIDE vs. DE LA SALLE
Oftober 23. Lost lS-8

One of Middleside's best games this year was the hard-fought battle
against De la Salle. The first quarter saw some fine open-field running
by Mike Kennedy of De la Salle which eventually ended in an unconverted
touchdown. Later in the quarter, Ross Hodgetts kicked a fifty yard single
to make the score 6-1 for De la Salle and this is the way it remained
until half time. Both teams came out with high spirits in the second half
and both showed excellent blocking and running. After a long drive
from the T.C.S. twenty yard line Barbour, with the blocking of Dick and
Warner, skirted twenty-three yards for a touchdown and Warner con-
verted it making the score 8-6. Both teams fought hard in the fourth
and final quarter and De la Salle managed a single by Mike Conserati.
With only a minute to play and with T.C.S. winning 8-7, De la Salle's
quarterback threw a screen pass to Mike Kennedy who took the ball and
ran sixty yards for a touchdown. The convert attempt was blocked.
De la Salle kicked off and with only two plays left, Ross Hodgetts passed
to Doug Wigle for a forty yard gain but he was stopped there ending a
really hard game with De la Salle victorious by a score of 13-8.

MIDDLESIDE vs. U.C.C. (second game)
At Port Hope, Saturday, October 26. Won 12-1

After being beaten 20-6 in the first game, the U.C.C. team was out
for blood. The day was clear and cold, but that did not stop the two
teams from playing a hard tackling and running game. The first quarter
saw both teams at a standstill, each team relying on kicking to break
the deadlock. The second quarter saw the same situation but U.C.C. drew
first blood by kicking a single near the end of the quarter. Early in the

Inspired by the attractive Cobourg cheerleaders, T.C.S. Middleside

in the game was the excellent blocking by the T.C.S. line which opened
wide holes and offered stable protection for the charging backfield. During
an eventful first quarter, John Braden and Peter Barbour managed suc-
cessfully to score three converted touchdowns, building the foundation
for an additional two touchdowns by Doug Wigle and Ross Hodgetts in
the third quarter. The final quarter found John Braden scoring again,
which put the Red and Black team well ahead. Bill Warner did a master-
ful job of kicking the four converts.

U.C.C. scored early in the first quarter on an end sweep by Butler.
The convert attempt failed, making the score 6-0. In the second quarter,
Butler plunged for another unconverted touchdown. However, the Blue
and White added a single on a rouge to make the score 13-0 at the end
of the half. In the third quarter Butler crossed the T.C.S. goal line for
his third time, ending the scoring. T.C.S. rallied late in the game but
were unable to break through.

The final score read 19-0 for the College. Butler's running was ex-

for T.C.S.

T.C.S. opened the scoring in the first quarter with a touchdown by
Hart on a reverse which MacEachern converted. The School then widened
their lead with two rouges both by MacEachern. In the second quarter,

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 71

Lakefield came to life with Innes plunging over for a touchdown which
went unconverted. Thus the score at half time was 9-6 in favour of
T.C.S. The third quarter was uneventful as far as the scoring was con-
cerned but both teams played well. In a last quarter drive, T.C.S. mana-
ged to score another touchdown with MacEacherh carrying the ball and
converting to make the score 16-6. Lakefield were unable to score again
and the game ended with T.C.S. on top 16-6.

LITTLESIDE vs. LAKEFIELD
At Lakefield, October 18. Lost 7-0

A much improved team from that which played here, Lakefield scored
early and then showed a strong defensive game. They marched down-
field and Innes carried the ball over for a converted touchdown. Play
was concentrated mainly in the centre of the field from then on, neither
team gaining much headway. In the second quarter, a T.C.S. pass went
for sixty yards but the Maroon and Blacks were held on the ten yard
line. With a minute remaining, Littleside drove to the Grove's one yard
line but were held solidly.

LITTLESIDE vs. U.C.C.
At T.C.S., October 26. Lost 13-9

In their second game with the Blue and Whites, the School showed
a much stronger game but were unable to hand their opponents a defeat.
U.C.C. took a fast lead with Butler driving off tackle for an unconverted
touchdown in the first five minutes. T.C.S. pushed back downfield and
kicked a field goal from the thirty yard line. From then on the game
was very even, neither team being able to score. With five minutes left,
McMurray crossed the line for Upper Canada's second touch which was
converted. On their own thirty, with minutes to go, MacEachern threw
a long pass to Hart which went all the way for a touchdown. This resulted
in a final score of 13-9 for Upper Canada.

THE FIRST INDEPENDENT SCHOOLS SAILING
CHAMPIONSHIP

September 21 and 22. Finished TlUrd

The first I.S.S.C. was held at the "Grove" school in Lakefield over
the week-end of September 21 and 22. The idea of the races was to get,
if possible, six or eight schools together and hold a sailing week-end with
the points leading to a trophy presented by the Grove. This year, six
schools competed for the trophy in the Grove's Norgebourg dinghies.
They were Appleby, Upper Canada College, Pickering, Hillfield, T.C.S.
and the Grove.

The first race was held on Saturday afternoon at 2.30 with a fair
and steady south-east wind. In this race T.C.S. placed second with Ross
Hodgetts skippering and James Smith crewing. After the race a buffet
supper was held in the Lakefield Hotel, followed by movies of Mr. Macrae
on his one and a half year sailing trip around the world. On Sunday,
the following three races were held in which James Smith skippered
twice getting a first and a third, only to be disqualified in the latter.
Ross Hodgetts skippered the final race, placing fourth. The wind on Sun-
day was a brisk north-west one which at times nearly capsized the boats.

After the final race, the trophy was presented to Appleby who won
under the superb skippering of Richard Brooks-Hill and John Wood.
U.C.C. placed second, Pickering third, T.C.S. fourth, the Grove fifth and
Hillfield sixth.

OXFORD CUP CROSS COUNTRY RACE

The sixty-first running of the Oxford Cup was won this year in a
time of 26 minutes 28 seconds by Bob Hart of Bethune House. This was
his second consecutive win. Aided by Hugh Gordon, Bill de Hoogh, and
Peter Gordon, Bob won the Cup for Bethune House with the surprisingly
close score of 28 to 27. Considering the poor weather conditions — cold,
wet and muddy — this was an exceptionally well run race on the part of
all the contestants.

THE RECORD IN FAST YEARS

(The following account of the history of the RECORD was written
by R. L. WATTS, a member of the Record staff at the time, and appeared
in our Fiftieth Anniversary number published in February 1948.)

About 1892, there had been another T.C.S. magazine, the Red and
Black. Published at irregular intervals it had died out when its editors,
L. M. ("Shadow") Lyon and C. S. Wilkie left the School several years
later, though in one respect it did make history, by reporting two dif-
ferent School fires in the same issue.

The Record was originally intended to be published six times a year
but in 1910 it was reduced to three. While the School was at Woodstock
in 1928-29, the Record underwent a complete change. For the first time,
literary contributions in the form of stories, essays, poems and even a
page of jokes and puzzles, were included. During this period it appeared
fortnightly, but with the return to Port Hope it reverted to the old system

TRINITY COLiLEGE SCHOOL REX^ORD

of publication once each term, though the inclusion of poems and stories
written by the boys remained. In 1933 it reverted to the original plan
calling for six issues a year. In 1936, after a contest, the present cover
was selected.

At first, the Record was strictly a bulletin about School news, games
of the teams, and Old Boys' Notes; but by the time of the 1936 issue it
possessed much the same form as our present magazine, incorporating
a School calendar, editorials, School News, Chapel Notes, literary con-
tributions in the form of stories, essays and poems, to which the
humorous "Off the Record" section was added in 1938, a Feature section
in 1948, sports news consisting of write-ups of various games played
by School teams, and the Old Boys' Notes. Added to this is the Junior
School section first started in 1916 which is really a smaller edition of
the Record in itself. The number and quality of photographs has in-
creased tremendously since the pictures of Dr. Bethune (Headmaster at
the time) and of Archibald Lampman (an Old Boy) were proudly pre-
sented in the second volume as the first cuts to appear in the School
magazine. Today the Record also gives a pictorial view of our School
life. In size and content, too, the Record has grown until now it is at
least six times as big as the thin original copies of eight pages.

One issue of the Record is worthy of particular note. In 1940, on
the occasion of the School's 75th Anniversary, a special number of the
Record was printed packed with pictures of the School at different times,
and describing various phases of School life. In this issue were many
stories of the history of the School, recollections of different Headmasters
and descriptions of present-day life at T.C.S. Also of special interest was
the Victory in Europe number, published in June 1945, and incorporating
much of the more interesting work that had appeared in the Record
during the war years.

As the Record grew, more and more responsibility was handed over
to the boys themselves. In the early issues most of the organizing had
been done by a group of masters assisted by a few boys. Gradually this
procedure was reversed and in 1932, E. Cutler became the first boy to
be appointed sole Editor-in-Chief. Today it is mainly produced 'oy the
boys with a master acting as adviser. The Editor-in-Chief has the dif-
ficult task of writing editorials as well as chasing after his assistants
for most of the material.

He has several assistant editors looking after the Sports, Literary,
School News and Feature departments. These boys, chosen on a basis
of experience as reporters, look after certain material themselves and
organize the work of their assistants. Besides these, there is a boy act-
ing as Business Manager in charge of advertising. After the various
items have been revised by the individual editors and then by the Editor-
in-Chief, they are further checked by the advisory master and the Head-
master. For the Junior School section, the material is sent in by the
Principal. After gathering items of interest concerning the Old Boys,

TRINITY CODLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 77

the Headmaster and the Secretary of the Old Boys' Association assemble
the Old Boys' notes.

The Record has become an integral part of T.C.S. life as it depicts
our joyous days at School and at the same time gives boys the interesting
experience of experimenting with journalism.

THE RECORD TODAY

The most notable feature of the Record during the past ten years
has been its steady growth in size so that by 1955, it became necessary
to introduce a flat-stitch binding, a practise that had been followed only
occasionally in the past and one that greatly improved the appearance
of the Record. To some degree, the growth of the magazine paralleled
the growth of enrolment in the School as well as the steady increase
in the membership of the Old Boys' Association. To provide better
coverage of Old Boys' news, the School began publication of a "News
Bulletin" in 1954 and this innovation was received with such a warm
welcome that it has been continued up to the present. In 1956, however,
it was decided that the Record should be sent to all Old Boys and parents,
but as a result of mounting costs of publication, it was not thought
possible to continue this project. As a result, the Record has this year
been reduced to three issues and will become more closely associated
with the interests of the present members of the School. At the same
time, all members of the T.C.S. Association will receive "The T.C.S.
News", also to be published three times annually.

THE RECORD IN TIME OF WAR

Throughout the First World War, when the Record was under the
capable direction of Professor W. R. P. Bridger, the first of the "Service
Lists" were published, beginning in January 1915. These continued for
many issues with "the announcements of deaths of Old Boys who had
recently been with us".

With the advent of World War II, the publishing of Service Lists
began again. During this period, the Record was sent to all Old Boys
on Active Service six times a year without charge. Over seven hundred
pages of Old Boys' news were published during these years. At the
same time. Dr. Ketchum maintained very close touch with Old Boys
on Active Service and his records as well as those obtained by the
Secretary of the Old Boys' Association provided the material for "T.C.S.
Old Boys at War", edited by Mr. Humble and published in June 1948.
This volume, comprising some 250 pages, contained the Honour Roll of
those who had given their lives during the war as well as brief service
records of all other Old Boys in the Armed Forces. Included in this
volume also were lists of those who had served in the Boer War and
World War I.

It is with feelings of deep satisfaction that we are able to present
to the School the first number of the T.C.S. Record. As the names implies,
it will be the record of the School; not only of all that takes place with-
in our walls and playground, but of the doings and careers of that larger
and ever-increasing body who are just as much a part of the School,
the Old Boys. We do not mean that our columns will be closed to articles
of a more ambitious nature but our main object is to chronicle the his-
tory of the School.

Some five years ago a School paper was published under the name
of "Red and Black" but it died out with the departure of the first editors.

With these words, we leave The Record to fight its own way, fully
assured that Trinity College School will give it a loyal and unwavering
support. The Record will be issued twice each term, once at the half-
term and once at its close.

The first article was entitled "School Work". Both in quantity and
quality the work this term seems somewhat above the average. The work
in hand is, for the most part, preparation for the Matriculation examina-
tions of the Education Department of Ontario and McGill and the Entrance
examinations at the Royal Military College. May we express our hopes
that the boys engaged in this work will do their utmost to win fresh
Honours for this School in their different examinations. A School in the
first instance is rightly judged by the character of the boys it turns out
and next in importance, stand their achievements in the paths of scholar-
ships. Then follows a list of distinctions obtained in the year 1896-1897
and among those mentioned are : L. W. Broughall, Jubilee Scholar ; E. P. S.
Spencer, Scholar in Philosophy; A. S. B. Lucas, Wellington Scholar in
Mathematics at Matriculation ; G. B. Strathy, Burnside Scholar in Classics ;

The Old Boys' dinner was held at Webb's in Toronto on January 4th
after a lapse of some years. Those who met were so imbued with the
spirit of fellowship that the most perfect harmony prevailed. Professor
C. L. Worrell, President of the Old Boys' Association fulfilled the duties
of Chairman in a most charming manner. The speech of the evening
was, of course. Dr. Bethune's and he was in a most happy vein. E. D.
Armour regaled the company with very entertaining stories of the Weston
days. Among the Old Boys mentioned at the dinner were: A. M. Bethune,
R. C. H. Cassels, E. C. Cayley; Jack Jellett; D'Arcy Martin, Kerwin
Martin, J. E. Osborne, H. C. Osborne, Gordon Osier, D. W. Saunders,
C. J. Price.

In Chess, a correspondence game was to be played with Lennoxville.

The last football season, that of 1897, had to put down as unsuccess-
ful. The team played at Peterborough, at the Rosedale Field against
Ridley, at T.C.S. against U.C.C. They were defeated in all those games.
Mr. Nightingale had coached the Junior Team very successfully. It was
recommended that the boys practice kicking and collaring and turn up
on time for practice.

Mrs. Jellett had just left as Matron and her place was taken by Mrs.
Sey. During the years in which Mrs. Jellett was with us, we learned to
value and appreciate her unwearying energy and kindness. No trifle
was too small for her sympathy and many a new boy will remember her
during the trying ordeal of the first week away from home. Appreciation
too is expressed of Montizambert, the hospitality of Mrs. Montize who
had left to live in Toronto.

The Rink! At last, we have a rink of our own. The Headmaster and
the Staff have defrayed the expenses and are gradually to be recouped
from the yearly subscriptions. It lies directly north of the gymnasium
and is 156' by 84'. It is an open air rink. A board court has been put
up for 'Fives' — in the corner of the gymnasium; the game is becoming
popular.

We congratulate that most loyal of Old Boys, D'Arcy Martin, on his
recent marriage to Miss Stinson.

D. W. Saunders captained the victorious International Eleven. S. S.
DuMoulin distinguished himself with the Hamilton Cricket Club.

The advertisements included the "King of Scorchers", a bicycle sold
by E. G. Hale and Company, list price $85, cash price $75; Watson's
Drug Store sold Sen-sen, Pakem, Sayo Mint Jujubes; Anti-Kroak Frog
in your Throat; Gangalos Troches and Acme Licorice Pellets; Smith
Brothers let cabs by the hour or day, single and double rates with care-
ful driver at reasonable prices. Mrs. Philp advertised the choicest dainties;
John Walker, Undertaker — "Give us a call and we will try to please you";
J. L. Thompson made a special kind of horse collar ; gilt edge and glycerole
dressing; a full line of Bell's celebrated Ladies' French kid boots; F.

In the second number the Old Boys' Association is mentioned. There
are barely 100 members on the roll — how come this? There should
be 500 at least.

We are not asking for large subscriptions in money, welcome though
they always are, we feel that they are not to be compared in value with
that loyalty and living enthusiasm of our Old Boys which is the surest
foundation of this School.

Mr. Dyce Saunders has a long article called "Talk on Cricket" which
is full of interest and shows clearly what damage slackness in any form
can do to a team. The T.C.S. Rovers Cricket Tour of 1897 was very
successful. Six matches were played, five won, one - draw. Centuries
were made by Cooper, 118 not out; Saunders 101 retired; and Alexis
Martin made 97. The team played matches in Hamilton, London and
Chatham, Toronto, Guelph and Detroit.

Our choir has always been a feature of T.C.S. and we must preserve
it so. Mr. Coombs was congratulated on a successful concert given by
the Town Madrigal Society. Among others, L. M. Rathbun and S. R.
Saimders were commended for their work in the choir.

R. P. Jellett has been appointed to the Staff of the Bank of Montreal

at Brantford.

Dr. William Osier has won the honour of being elected a Fellow of
the Royal Society. Speech day was on June 30th, 1898.

Professor R. A. Fessenden of the Western University of Pennsylvania
has just completed a portable x-ray apparatus foi- use by surgeons in
the field during the war.

Rarely has the School had the honour of sending to the University
together two such promising scholars as Lucas and Strathy. Their Welling-
ton Scholarships in Classics and Mathematics and Baldwin's in Science
mark these boys as brilliant examples of the effect of T.C.S. training.

C. A. Heaven won the Hamilton Memorial Prize in Trinity College
and three other prizes.

Among those noticed on speech day were: Mr. and Mrs. Vallance,
Mrs. and Miss Cumberland, Miss Fraser, Mrs. Montizambert, Miss Benson.

Entrance Scholarships were instituted for the first time.

On the Committee of the Old Boys' Association were : D. W. Saunders,
D'Arcy Martin, E. D. Armour, H. C. Osborne, G. B. Strathy, P. E. Hender-
son and others.

Six of the ten pages of the July issue of the Record were given up
to Cricket. In the November issue, a moving tribute is paid to the wife
of the Rev. C. J. S. Bethune who was killed in a carriage accident.

The sports were run off on October 14th and 15th. A football game
with Ridley was played at Rosedale on October 26th and the result was
the defeat of T.C.S. by 19 to 0. There is a paragraph about the Littleside
Team's visit to Lakefield. The members of the Littleside Team went to
bed in a joyful spirit. The next day dawned clear and bright; at half-
past five (it seemed like one o'clock) we awoke to find the day at hand.
After dressing hastily we went down to a good breakfast, then up to
the Hall, on with our coats and hats and to the bus (horsedrawn) . We
drove to the station where the train shortly came in, boarded her and
soon fields and autumn woods were flying past. We passed the important
town of Millbrook and finally arrived in Peterborough. Here, after a
long wait, we got to Lakefield, a pretty place on the edge of the river,
surrounded by woods. A short drive of about a mile brought us to Lake-
field School pleasantly situated overlooking the lake. The boys have a
small boathouse and several canoes. At half -past two, the teams line
up. T.C.S. boys won quite handily but the Grove boys played bravely.
After changing, we drove nine miles in the moonlight to Peterborough
and when we arrived at the old school we were a sleepy lot of boys.
Among those on the team were: C. J. S. Stuart, J. R. Francis, L. R.
Avery, Morgan Carry, R. J. Ridout, F. G. McLaren.

Q^ TRINITY COLiLEGE SCHOOL REKJORD

Mr. C. A. Heaven was welcomed as a Master. He had been a boy
at the school from 1889 to 1893.

The Oxford Cup was run on November 4th starting from the play-
ing field, thence to the Ravenscourt corner, then to the Highway Toll
Gate near Gage's Creek and home. It was won by D. A. Hammond of
Peterborough.

T. A. Irving and A. E. S. Martin have been appointed to the British
Columbia Bench.

Archibald Lampman had a poem recently in Blackwood' magazine
and another appeared in a later number of Scribner's.

W. W. Francis took his B.A. at Johns Hopkins University and re-
mained to continue his medical course.

Whitney Mockridge, the well known tenor, was touring England and
in such distinguished company as that of Madam Adelina Patti and
Watkin Miles.

D. W. Saunders again captained the Canadian International Eleven
at Philadelphia. In the London Daily Mail he is considered next to Scat-
tergood of the United States as a stumper.

S. S. DuMoulin was playing for the Hamilton Tigers, and for the
Argonauts, P. E. Henderson, B. B. O. Francis, G. B. A. Chadwick.

There was a concert at the end of the Michaelmas Term when Carols
were simg and the Sports Prizes presented. Mrs. Eraser of Dunain gave
the prizes, and Mr. Barlow Cumberland made a short speech.

Visitors to the Chapel are invariably pleased with the singing of
the boys; the Responses and Amens are sung without organ accompani-
ment and Mr. Coombs, the choirmaster, came in for much praise.

The Cricket averages are given and mention made of the win over
Ridley by a score of 56 to 18. F. T. Lucas, Head of the 6th form, also
won the top average for batting.

A Hare and Hounds Race was run on Thanksgiving Day, the scent
being picked up at the electric light pond, then at Choate's Graveyard,
through the woods and so to Dale, then back to Ravenscourt and finally
the Tuck.

The T.C.S. Old Boys in Victoria, B.C., played a Cricket Match against
Nanaimo.

Philip DeMoulin announced his engagement to Miss Amy Martin
of Hamilton.

1899

The buildings of the School came in for much praise in the American
Journal of Health in 1899. Ventilation and lighting were considered
ideal; the recitation rooms are models in these respects; the dormitories
are well provided for in the matter of ventilation; the toilet arrange-
ments are designed with remarkable completness and served their pur-
pose with grracious and practical utility.

THE DINING HALL, 1895 - 1928

At the choir supper, Mr. Broughall arranged a cock fight. Members
of the choir vs the Pumpers. Two broomsticks were speedily secured
and the combatants hitched on to them. From the beginning, the choir
were utterly outmatched; whether it was the size of the foot or the
superiority of barbarianism over one of the fine arts, we cannot say,
but it took Garvey about three minutes to turn Plummer on his back.
Mr. Coombs recited "The Wreck of the Julie Plante" and brought down
the house. Saunders and several other boys sang songs.

Tribute is paid to Archibald Lampman who had died in early years.
The author said how surprised he was to learn that Lampman had read
a book of The Odyssey in the original solely for pleasure during the
Christmas holidays, or again, when succeeding to Lampman's locker at
the School, he found a copy of verses on Lake Ontario.

Whitney Mockridge was winning fame for his singing in England
and was called "The Tenor of Royalty".

M. B. Lewis introduced canvas jackets for wear by the football

gg TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

There was a revival of interest in the gymnasium and the competition
was held on March 25th with no less than 15 entries.

A list of 19 Old Boys is given, all serving in the Imperial Army,
among them the three Van Straubenzee's, all Captains, J. W. Osborne,
W. C. Dumble, H. C. Bickford, H. P. Leader, E. M. Morris, Norman
Von Hugel, D. C. Maclnnes. In 22 years, 61 T.C.S. Boys had gone to
R.M.C. and many had won High Honours.

In the June 1899 number, reference is made to the sudden resigna-
tion of Dr. Bethune, the Headmaster.

W. H. White was ordained to the Priesthood on February 26th, 1899;
L. W. B. Broughall was ordained Deacon on Trinity Sunday in 1899. The
Rev. C. H. Brent suffered a serious illness; he was considered one of
the most influential of the Clergy in Boston. J. W. Osborne was appointed
an ADC to Sir James Woodburn. He was a Second Lieutenant with the
Scottish Rifles.

Tribute is paid to the Rev. C. J. S. Bethune in the July 10th, 1899
number. When he became Headmaster in 1870, there was only a small
wooden building on the present site. School classes were conducted in
rooms in the town and there were thirty boys enrolled. Within a few
years, new buildings were erected and a beautiful Chapel completed. The
fire of 1895 destroyed these and new and larger buildings were erected.
Many complimentary references were made and on Speech Day the Old
Boys made him a presentation. Dr. Bethune said that the mainspring
of all his work had been St. Paul's words: "He that ruleth, let him do
it with diligence". The list of boys who won prizes and honorable mentions
occupies four columns.

The Cricket Team defeated Ridley by 5 wickets and S. R. Saunders
made 45, as pretty an exhibition of batting for a school boy as one could
wish to see. He hit six fours, three of them being off consecutive balls.

At Trinity College L. W. B. Broughall won First Class Honours in
Theology and Applied Theology; J. M. Baldwin won the Governor General's
Medal for Science; G. B. Strathy won the Wellington Scholarship for the
second year and obtained First Class Honours in Mathematics; A. S. B.
Lucas won the Wellington Scholarship in Mathematics for a second year
and obtained First Class Honours in Mathematics; F. W. Rolph won the
Burnside Scholarship in History and First Class Honours in History.
R. V. Harris won a Wellington Scholarship.

The Rev. R. Edmonds Jones was appointed Headmaster in the
Michaelmas Term, 1899.

Many Old Boys were serving in the Army in South Africa.

Among the new boys were: O. T. Macklem, E. P. Spencer, Trumbull
Warren.

Mrs. Montizambert organized a dancing class at the School.

F. G. Osier became a Junior Partner of Osier and Hammond.

G. B. Strathy was editor of the Trinity University Review.

him had filled him with so much pride as winning the Chancellor's Prize
as Head Boy at T.C.S.

Tribute is paid to Lt. J. W. Osborne who met a soldier's death at
Spion Kop in South Africa. Reference is made to his fine character, his
good nature, and his universal popularity. A list of 32 Old Boys is
given who were serving at the front. The Mail & Empire published letters
written by the late Lt. J. W. Osborne.

Capt. A. C. Macdonnell was dangerously wounded but Lord Roberts
cabled the Governor General, Lord Minto, "Please inform Mrs. Macdon-
nell of Peterborough, husband's bullet extracted doing well practically

A. S. B. Lucas won the Prince of Wales Prize for Mathematics at
Trinity University; G. B. Strathy the Prince of Wales Prize for Classics
and the Jubilee Scholarship at Trinity University; R. C. H. Cassels passed
the final examinations in law at Osgoode Hall.

Of the 33 cricket matches played between T.C.S. and U.C.C, T.C.S.
has won 16, the College 14 and 3 were drawn. Among those on the XI
were F. T. Lucas, L. M. Rathbun, H. F. Labatt, C. J. Ingles, L. R. Avery
and the season was considered an eminently successful one.

The Hotel St. Lawrence advertises rates for room and board $2.00
a day. A residential school for girls in Toronto advertises "A high class
school for young ladies, refined, earnest and progressive."

L. M. Rathbun was captain of the football team. On the evening of
Friday, October 26, 1900, the team left the school for Toronto but had
not travelled more than 200 or 300 yards before we experienced a rather
sudden pull-up. In the middle of the school hill the pull straps broke
and the heavy unmanageable bus went tearing down through the dark-
ness and rain until a slight swerve threw it over on the side of the road.
Strange to say no one was seriously injured though a trunk fell on Kirk's
head and there were several bruised ankles and legs. Ridley won the
match next day by a score of 35-0.

H. E. Price presented handsome prizes for sports.

L. M. Rathbun and C. R. Spencer are now the only boys in the School
who went through the fire of 1895.

When the School played U.C.C. in Toronto on November 10, the red
and black flag of T.C.S. could be seen floating from 'Mashquoteh,' the
home of the loyal Baldwins.

We have been in the habit of enjoying an occasional afternoon's
skating in December on the broad surface of Duck Harbour. We believe

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 91

that nothing more completely reconciles the Canadian boy to the hard-
ships of an arctic winter than the fascination of chasing the puck. The
game is full of the most powerful attractions both for the player and
the spectator. No other game so engrosses the attention and feverishly
stirs the blood.

S. S. DuMoulin was elected to the committee of the O.R.F.U.

Hugh Labatt was on the football team which won the Dominion
Intermediate championship in Montreal.

one's regrets at the loss of Mr. Coombs.

F. G. McLaren has recovered from a serious illness.

W. G. Hagarty, V. C. Spencer and T. H. Bevan were among those

P. H. Gordon won the championship of the School in Single stick.

Lent Term ends on March 29; Trinity term begins on April 15.

In the Oxford Cup race P. H. Gordon was in the lead and expected
to win but Kersteman caught up to him a few yards from the finish
and with a sudden burst shot ahead of him. The history of the race
does not furnish a parallel for such a magnificent struggle.

R. C. H. Cassels won the Brantford medal at the Toronto Golf Club.

J. H. Collinson left T.C.S. to open Highfield School in Hamilton.

SPECIAL LITERARY SECTION

To commemorate the sixtieth anniversary of the Record, we have decided to
recall memories by republishing the following contributions of the past. Since there
was such a wide choice of selection, we narrowed our research to the past decade
and have chosen from the contributions of the 'forties, an editorial, a few essays,
short stories and poems which gained recognition at the time of publication. For
the Victory in Europe number published in June 1945, the Record reprinted other
interesting work of the war years which space, unfortunately, does not allow us
to include again in this issue.

THE BDITOR.

AN EDITORIAL

An interesting article has been submitted to the Literary section of
this edition of the Record. It is in many ways a very exceptional article,
and I don't think that there has been one like it in the School magazine
for a great many years. It deals, in a general sense, with the one great
fault of boarding schools — their tendency to submerge the individual
personality to a lowest common denominator. To this general statement
our School is no exception. One can see at the School the same imfor-
timate results of this trend as traced in the article. But the causes
named by the author, if they be true in the general case, have little
bearing on T.C.S. He attributes this attitude of mind to the uninspired
policies of the various Boards of Education in Canada and in the United
States. While the policies of the Ontario Board may have some effect,
ill or otherwise, on the atmosphere of the School, these effects are greatly
minimized by our virtual independence in the courses followed in the
different subjects up to the Senior Matriculation form. In any case these

TRINITY COIjLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 93

policies have little bearing on the situation in question; the main cause
would seem to be elsewhere.

But whatever the cause, this trend is not confined to boarding schools.
We can see it in virtually all the schools in the country and in a some-
what changed form in society in general. In boarding school, however,
where a small group of boys are compelled to live in close contact with
one another it is naturally emphasized. In a school such as ours where
the individual's actions stand out so much more than those of an in-
dividual in a larger society, there is no opportunity to pursue one's own
course in relative obscurity. Nor is there much chance for the boy whose
interests and tastes are exceptional, of meeting others of the same in-
terests. The incentive to conform to the life of the average boy is very
powerful. A boy with a personality different from the average finds it
difficult at first to get on. He finds that the boys with whom he is in
contact value a rather small, set group of characteristics, — ability in
sports, ability to get on, wit, — and he is inclined to think that unless he
can develop these characteristics he will be left out and ignored. The
emphasis in a small, close-knit group is naturally on getting on with
others, and very often the individual personality is shoved into the back-
ground before the more immediate necessity of making friends. Instead
of waiting until his own peculiar virtues are known and recognized, the
newly-arrived boy will often artificially put on others that are already
recognized. And the boy who cannot or will not subject his own per-
sonality to this process of levelling out, is usually either completely
ignored or else taken to task by a number of self-styled wits.

But this fault, stemming as it does from the fundamental attitude
of mind of most boys, is almost incurable. It is common to almost every
school, and weighed against the great good that can come out of a good
boarding school education such as is obtainable at T.C.S., it is not as
important as it may seem. Many boys manage to meet this challenge
to the individual quite effectively when they reach the upper forms, and
end up greatly strengthened in character by their experience.

But some good can still be done in this instance by the development
of a greater tolerance among the boys for others different from them-
selves. This change, however, must come from the boys themselves — ^no
outside source can stamp a different sense of values on them. It should
be developed by intelligent leadership on the part of the School officers
and those of influence in the School. This would be a very significant
step in the life of the School and would represent a very important
addition to the great good that it has to offer. It would aid greatly in
the development of that factor which is, after all, the foundation of
our democratic life — the individual personality.

THE COLD WIND OF WAR

As winter comes, so fly away the hours

Of sunshine, and the sight of growing things.

The good, sweet smell of earth and leaf-mould sours,

No more the kindly rain and dampness clings

To mossy field and meadow as before.

The frenzied wind, with stronger, swifter wings.

Brings cold and hunger. Can we close the door

While all the earth is drained of its blood,

Withdraw the mind from gloomy thoughts of war

To bear for one brief spell a tiny bud.

The peaceful honest thought of things alive.

Of rain and sun, of earth and leaves and mud?

We cannot close the door, though we may strive;

The wind is strong but cannot long survive.

— N. R. Paterson.

UNDERTOW

"The day is past and over
All thanks, O Lord to Thee"

As the lyric came tumbling forth from the eager voices of the con-
gregation I thought, not, O Lord, to Thee do I owe my thanks but to
the person standing beside, who was singing these words lustily, though
none too tunefully.

It had been, to say the least, a frightening accident, and one which
I would not wish repeated under any circumstances.

Spring was well on its way. The sun had soaked up most of what
little snow there was. Bare patches of dirty grass were appearing be-
tween long streaks of muddy snow. On the hills to the north, through
which the river turned and twisted, the rich brown soil of ploughed
fields showed through long furrows of dirty snow in earthy ridges. The
whole atmosphere was that of new life, of rebirth, of careless joy and
light-heartedness. It filled me with high spirits and the longing to get
out to stay. A peculiar energy was born in me and the odour of the dead
vegetation with faint traces of the new had the same effect on me as
blood has on a bloodthirsty person — I wanted more and more.

So it was that in this spirit Bob and I set out, with a hot sun in an
azure sky above us warming us to the core as we went.

In our quest for exercise and excitement we headed for the river,
which was reputedly breaking up at this time.

"The River" was a sluggish creek most of the time, but when spring
came it got the same feeling as we did and gathered all its energy en
masse in order to crack and shatter the shackles winter had put on it.
In the glory of its new found freedom it went on a splurge, rising high

TRINITY COLiLBGE SCHOOL RECORD 95

up over its banks and bursting with all its strength the last bonds of
winter.

Even as we approached, it was awakening from its long hibernation.
We decided to take part in its fight against the final, desperate hand of
winter. Preparatory to doing so we walked along its edge past the big
bend, up to the bridge.

There were only a few open spaces, apart from a narrow channel
crossing from one bank to the other in a drunken weaving pattern. The
sun was still hot, though, and would be for at least another three hours.
The ice must be thin in some places. We had stout poles and, lastly, had
been joined by several other people. We decided to start at the big bend,
and, after some jumping and pounding, got a good-sized floe broken off.
It carried three people across the narrow streak of dark water and then,
being too large to go down the channel, jammed, and its rider jumped
off. Flushed by our first success we worked harder and, aided by four
or five newcomers, managed to break off another big floe which, this
time, opened almost the whole width of the river. In this way we worked
patiently, and with great success, up the river, increasing both the size
of the jam and the strength of the undertow with each new floe.

At last we were able to get really worthwhile rides. Sliding out
from under the ice which was, as yet untouched, the black, treacherous
water carried the floes, very white and clean in contrast, on its eager,
hungry current, under the bare branches of the willows, from one side
to the other. Sometimes it playfully grounded them, causing curses and
abandonment by their riders; sometimes it cruelly caught them in cross-
current or eddies and hoisted them round and round in its evil fingers
till, tiring of the torture, it let them go and swept them onwards to the
end. Yet again, if it were a small floe with but a single rider, the river
might leave it stranded between two currents till another passed which
could pull it out.

At the end there was the jam. The jam — growing larger and meaner
everytime a floe came down; turbulent waters piled up behind it before
finally plunging under for a long journey to the next air hole.

Bob and I were doing our best to break a fioe off from the main
sheet. At last we were successful and began our ride. The dark im-
penetrable waters slipped us along at a good clip. I was stationed at
one side to prevent our hitting the bank or going aground and breaking
up. Bob was at the other side for the same purpose. We were well over
half-way down and not far from the jam when I heard a slight crunching
noise and a feeling of insecurity ran through me. I took a step back-
wards — but a split second too late. The heel of my boot kicked the
main part of the floe, but I had no balance and went in.

All sensation of reality left me. I thought how green the sky looked
and how far away the trees were. Then there was a regular drumming
in my ears — the funeral drums, I thought, and fiercely fought my way

98 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL REXXJRD

upwards. My hand inexplicably felt free — it touched something — then
darkness again. My life flashed before my eyes like a high-speed news-
reel and it was accompanied by a martial beat of drums. I recognized
the tune the drums were playing now. It was the funeral march. I began,
peacefully, gratefully to succumb to the slumber they induced in me, but
I again began to grow lighter and colder. Something was pulling me
away. I struggled against it. It was warm and dark and comfortable
here, I didn't want to go — but I couldn't help it. I could breathe now,
though uncomfortably and I still wanted to sink silently back to that
paradise from which I had so rudely been taken. Then something surged
up in me and through the roaring in my ears I heard myself say, "I can
make it myself now, thanks." I shook the dirty silt out of my eyes and
swam to shore a few feet above the jam beside Bob, in my opinion not
only the hero of to-day, but of all days.

I most certainly didn't want to leave this world, I thought, as I
joined in lustily to the last two lines of the hymn,
"Lover of men, O hear my call,

And guard and save me from them all".

— H. W. Warburton.

SUNSET

What sight, a sunset on a silver sea!

What blaze of fire, what joy of light!

What grandeur 'cross the deep expanse

Confounds the silent conflagration

Of diminished rays. That light, that

Through the day shone o'er the world

To guide her people through those vanished hours;

That light, that scorched the blood-shot eyes

Of wearied mariners; that light, that global mass.

That ball of fire, that mystic luminary in a world

Of darkness, once more descends into a velvet ocean.

Far horizons dim with but inflected rays.

High heavens darken with the close of day.

All colours blend to the blues of night.

And the passing day drifts out of sight;

Oh glowing sunrise trample out the torpid night!

THE SIGNPOST

(Any resemblance between the characters in this episode and any
one living or half dead is, in some cases, purely coincidental.)

The room oozed with tradition. The large circular oaken table, sur-
rounded by its six polished straight-backed chairs, seemed prepared for
some momentous event. Even the intricately carved antique wall panels
seemed to have an extra gleam upon them on this day. Everything was
prepared for the meeting, the eighty-second annual meeting of the execu-
tive editorial committee of the Tillbury College for Gentlemen's magazine,
the Signpost.

Finally the designated hour for the gathering, seven o'clock, arrived.
Nine and one-half minutes later Percival Underwood, School News Editor,
trudged into the room. This big bearded, uncouth boy gently plopped
onto one of the chairs, leaned back on it, firmly placed his feet on the
table, pulled out a tattered news magazine and proceeded to pore over
it. After a few seconds a large pair of horn-rimmed glasses followed by
the small eager business manager sneaked into the room. Richard
"Stinky" Sandalwood, as this specimen was named, meticulously picked
out a chair, carefully sat on it and remained rigidly sitting on it for the
rest of the meeting. Almost immediately three other distinguished com-
mittee members strode in; they were the ivory-tower-dwelling Literary
Editor, Lancelot Murkygrove, the plodding Sports Editor, Robert Marble,
and the Editor-in-Chief, George Mousington, who, in later life, would
undoubtedly make an excellent hen-pecked husband.

At last, when everyone was seated, the advising master, Mr. Bank
Mounte, M.A., A.F.S., jogged in and burst out with, "Well, are we all
here? That's good. Well, you know what we are here for; it is time to
get out the annual that we have all worked on so hard during the year.
First we will see what the Literary section has drug up this year. But,
of course, it is up to Mr. Editor-in-Chief to tell us what to do, as after
all, I am only here to advise and give hints. Don't snicker, Percy, that
was not a joke. Well, Mr. Editor-in-Chief."

Gteorge went as far as "I think" before being interrupted by Lance-
lot, who commenced murmuring; he murmured, "Sir, I think that we
have a rather exceptional literary section this year. Instead of the usual
school line of humour and adventure stories we have psychological stories
filled with complexed people, and we have three and one-half incom-
prehensible poems by myself."

"Are they morbid?" demanded Percy in the firm tone he used on
his news staff.

"Naturally," answered Lancelot in a puzzled tone.

"Ahem!" put in the Sports Editor Robert, "I think that, with all due
consideration for Lancelot, and taking into account all possible favor-

What was I saying? Oh yes! That one of my firmest and most funda-
mental beliefs is that morbidness must go."

"I don't think our advertisers like poems. They hate culture," piped

up Stinky.

"Besides," stated Mr. Mounte, "I do not think that the boys like
too many morbid stories."

"Well, that settles that," remarked Percy, "so let's move on to
another section."

"I think that we might try the School News next," said Mr. Mounte,
"but of course that is up to Mr. Editor-in-Chief."

Percy, being a realist, commenced talking before George had a chance
to speak: "Well, sir, not really much has happsned around here this
year. Not anything that would interest the School and I have been very
busy this year. Homework does take so much time. I had four or five
write-ups, but one was vulgar, several were childish, and anyway, I lost
them. I really worked very hard, but ..."

"Yes!" interjected Mr. Mounte, "We all know your strenuous methods
of working. We will now move on to the Sports Editor, if George doesn't
mind."

George did not.

Robert proceeded as though he were a prominent politician, gurgling
forth a pompous pronouncement: "Sir, and fellow Tillbury editors, the
sports staff feels certain, I might even say positive, that we will make
up for any negligence or neglect by other parts of the Signpost staff. The
season in sports has not been eminently successful or very felicitous this
year. In fact, we have not won a game yet; but, even so, our write-ups
have been skilfully devised. Allow me to read you a typical write-up of
a football game between our noble "Juniors" and the Farmersville In-
fants: 'The Tillbury Junior Team started the game against the Farmers-
ville Infants with several severe handicaps; the Farmersville lads had
the advantage of being smaller and hence faster; the Tillbury boys were
demoralized because they knew they could not win their league, as twelve
members of their starting line were over-age; the Tillbury star water-
boy was in the hospital with a ruinous attack of hiccoughs. In spite of
all this the Tillbury boys fought hard and the score, 72 to 3, was really
no indication of the play.' There can be no doubt as to the excellence of
such work. Can anyone find anything wrong with that?"

"Most of our advertisers come from Farmersville, and they might
take objection," was Stinky's contribution to the conversation.

Mr. Mounte, remembering that he had not said anything for some
time, declared, "If the Old Boys found that the teams had not won any
games this year they might not contribute to the fund for aged masters ;
therefore, I think that we will have to eliminate the sports section this
year, providing the Editor-in-Chief does not mind."

'That means that we can leave?" asked George.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 99

"Yes," said Mr. Mounte.

The six stood up and silently filed out of the tradition-encrusted
chamber. The eighty-second annual meeting of the executive editorial
committee of the Tillbury College for Gentlemen's magazine, the Sign-
post, was ended, and thus, for the eighty-second consecutive time the
Signpost failed to appear, or, to quote the Signpost's motto, "Oh well!
Next year." — d. w. Fuiford.

THOUGHTS OF CHRISTMAS

Christmas — The snow-bound lethargy of a Winter night,
The burning mystery of a distant light
In the diamond-studded vault of space.

Christmas — The starlit wind has whispered the Word

As it did many years ago, unheard,
In a hallowed, moonlit place.

Christmas — The luminous lodestone of human voices
Singing of a love that in triumph rejoices
After the victorious race.

Christmas — The hearth's fire, the church's dome,
The long-awaited journey home.

— C. M. Taylor.

WESTMINSTER BRIDGE

It was a cold, dark December morning. A fog was rolling in from
the North Sea, obscuring everything more than twenty feet away from
me. I was standing on Westminster Bridge, gazing into the vast nothing-
ness far below. A lone, deep whistle chortled from a tug passing beneath,
barely visible through the wafts of hanging mist. All traffic had by
this time stopped. No autos or pedestrians were about. I was alone,
trying to think, but the more I stared, the more vacant my mind became.

The year was 1929. I was, or had been, an accountant in the head
office of a well-known shipping firm; only that week I had been dis-
charged — "with regret." The regret was much more on my side, but
I was just one of the many white-collar workers thrown out of work
at the very beginning of the crash. The stock market panic had by this
time spread from America, and it was evident that such companies as
the one that employed me would for some time be running only on paper.

I was, as they say, "at sea"; I needed time to find my bearings. I
was still trying to collect my thoughts — to concentrate — to formulate
a concrete plan to continue a worthwhile existence. I had no desire to
let things ride for a time, and, as I was still young and optimistically
ambitious. I had not yet found that this is sometimes necessary.

IQQ TRINITY COLLEXJE SCHOOL RECORD

There I was, meditating, detached from even the bleak stillness of
the London air, when I heard footsteps approaching, slowly, heavily.
From out of the shadow appeared a tall, stooped figure clad in an
enveloping dark overcoat and a black homburg. He turned slightly to
pass me and raised his head. In the faint light I made out the features
of Edward Charles, a man who came into the office often on business,
and with whom I had spoken several times a propos of some obscure
business details.

"Mr. Charles!" I exclaimed.

He stopped just after having walked by, turned around and looked
at me querulously.

"Mr. Charles, you remember me? At Braceburn and Cole's."

"Oh, yes. Yes."

'Coincidence meeting you here on such a night, Mr. Charles. Taking
a walk, sir?"

"Um, yes. Just a breather."

He leaned on the railing beside me, hardly hearing what I said. He
was lost in dreams. Or perhaps, wishing he were in a dream. I remembered
that someone had told me he had lost heavily on the market. No one
knew how much; some said, everything. Yes, perhaps that was what
he was pondering.

"Something on your mind, sir?" I asked, trying to break into his
little world.

No reply came. So I turned to gaze into the fog once more. Then,
minutes later:

"Something terrible is on my mind. Ghastly. Have you ever thought
of - - of - killing yourself?"

"Mr. Charles, sir!"

"Oh, don't be so surprised. I've lost everything I ever had. Money,
influence, false friends. I never did have a family of my own."

"You're not the only one, sir."

"That doesn't help me any, does it?"

He started walking across the bridge, and I followed him, wonder-
ing what I would hear. As we walked side by side, slowly advancing,
stumbling on cracks in the pavement, he remained silent. We reached
the south end of the bridge and turned off to the side-street — or at
least he did, and I dragged along beside him.

We reached some docks, some of the miles and miles of docks that
jut out rudely into the Thames. Then we stopped. Mr. Charles drew from
his overcoat pocket a silver cigarette case, fingered a cigarette, and ex-
tended the case toward me.

"Smoke?"

"Yes, thanks. Cold. Makes me want one."

Another pause followed, not awkward to me, for I could see a bliss-
ful expression soften the lines on his face as he took a few puffs on
the cigarette.

TRINITY COULEGE SCHOOL RECORD 101

"Did you ever think," he said, sighing with satisfaction, "what it
would be like if you died this very minute? A quick, almost painless
death? What you would think in those last few seconds?"

"Please, Mr. Charles, don't think about such things. I am no escapist,
myself."

"Oh, very well, then. I shouldn't discuss anything like that."

A strained expression suddenly struck his face, and he glanced at
his watch.

"I say, it's very late, you know," he muttered. "I must leave you
now. I'm going this way. You'll be wanting to go back over the bridge ?"

"Yes, sir."

"Glad to 've seen you again. Keep yourself well, won't you?"

"I'll try, sir. Goodbye."

"Cheerio."

He walked off into the fog. I stood vacantly for a minute or two.
Then I turned on my heels and walked back to the bridge. As I walked
once again along the familiar railing I thought how nice a man was this
Edward Charles. 'He'll pull through his troubles all right. Even though
he's had it worse than most people', I thought to myself. 'If only I can
keep going as well.'

A spirit of resolution swept over me. I would do well. I must do
well. I leaned over the railing once more, one last time, to gaze into
the mist, which had cleared a great deal by this time. The pale light
of a distant moon was reflected in the murky waters. And I half-spoke
aloud :

"That receding fog is the symbol of my mind. It's clearing up. My
mind's clearing up too! Goodbye, River Thames!"

I started to move off, but in moving, my glance fell on the now distinct
water forty feet below.

There on the water, far beneath me, floating a few feet upstream,
was a black homburg hat.

INTERLUDE WITH LIFE

A fine morning mist hung over Lower Town. The washing on the
shanty clothes lines sagged, grey and lifeless, in the humid air. Steam
was rising from the reeds on the river mud banks and when the eight
o'clock freight rumbled past, the dogs did not try to bark. The ensuing
silence was more acute than usual but the after-breakfast sounds were
not intensified and seemed heavy in the air. Occasionally a bull frog
croaked from the river and all the while engines shunted disconsolately
in the yard. It was just another summer morning in shanty town and
the sun was quietly chasing away the mist.

Young Mrs. Kolysck threw the dish water into the yard and absently
watched the chickens as they scurried busily away. Hank, her husband.

102

TRINITY (X)IjL,EGE SCHOOL RECORD

had been gone an hour. Hank was a construction labourer and earned
three dollars a day. He went to work at seven and would return, white
with chalk dust and terribly tired, at eight every night. He was not
able to speak English very well and so (he explained) he couldn't get
a better job. Young Mrs. Kolysck loved her husband and would not
have minded any privation, but that her children were so young and so
often hungry.

At that moment Johnny came out of the shack. Johnny, her eldest
child, was a thin, but handsome, boy of eight.

"Hey, mom. kin I go and find Joe, kin I, mom?"

"Sure, son," said his mother, "sure you kin."

Her voice was thin and weary, and although she was not yet twenty-
five years of age, there was a peevish, middle-aged note in her words.
Johnny jumped down from the porch and ran along "Main Street," his
small bare feet throwing up spurts of dust. Joe lived four houses down,
and as his friend approached he scrambled out to meet him; he had been
waiting. Johnny and Joe were inseparable — they were of the same age
and were, of course, both Polacks. A doctor would have told you that
Joe had tuberculosis, but his dry coughing served only to irritate his
tired parents. Johnny and Joe, Americans by birth, but both with foreign
names, did not go to school, and so they were always looking for things
to do. Today, by unspoken agreement, they were going over the bridge
to the other side of the river, to try to catch a few catfish.

The two grubby figures left shanty town, crossed the railway tracks,
passed through the tenement district and were soon in the better part
of town. Their fathers had been at work for nearly two hours but now
the morning office rush was on. Fascinated, as always, by the stream-
ing traffic — neither had ever ridden in a car — they stood side by side
on the hot sidewalk, and revelled in the sights and sounds of a busy
city. Once a big, shiny limousine slid by; an erect chauffeur in dark
green livery held the ivory wheel with practised hands and a large, fat
man reclined in the back seat. The large man, like the boys, was born
with a foreign name. He was Isaac Rosencrantz, and he owned a great
part of the city's most valuable land, and he was enormously wealthy.
But the boys did not know this and would not have cared if they had.

Then they began to walk again and soon were over the bridge and
out of the city, wandering along the river bank.

Suddenly Johnny asked,

"Joe, wouldja like to be real rich and have a real big car, huh, Joe?"

Joe looked thoughtful.

"Yes," he said, "yes, I guess so."

"What wouldja buy if you were real rich, Joe?"

The thought was too overwhelming; finally he said slowly, "I dunno,
Johnny."

"Gee, I dunno either."

TRINITY COIjL.EX5E SCHOOL RECORD 103

The boys were not great talkers and the conversation ended. Shortly
they were sitting on the wharf absently dangling their lines in the muddy
water. Now it was very hot and the only sounds were the buzzing of
curious flies, the idle lapping of the water on the shore, and Joe coughing
a little.

NAMES

The title of this short piece is hardly a fitting one. I write of names,
it is true, but the names of which I write are of a special variety. In
a sense they are historical names. Behind them there are many stories
rich in human interest. Some are puzzles, some are chronicles, yet again
some mean nothing at all. They have one thing in common, each one
represents an idle mind or a straying thought. They possess this wealth
of curiosity, yet they are so often noticed as to be seldom seen.

The names of which I speak are the names which surround me as
I work. They are beneath my paper, under my arms. If I raise my eyes
they are there above my page. Always present, they are the words, the
phrases, the snatches of drifting interest that adorn the surfaces of
desks. It is indeed a strange school and a rare one too in which these
evidences of blissful day-dreaming are not present.

On this one desk out Of the vast number that I might choose to sit
in as I write, there are, by actual count, nearly thirty legible names and
initials. Each of the hundreds of thousands of desks in the schools of
the world would tell a different version of the same old story.

104

TRINITY CODLEGE SCHOOL REX30RD

Take as an example the word "Saul" scratched lightly through the
varnish. What could it possibly mean? It is obviously not new. The
dirt is ground into it. It is not as plain as it once was, and it could
easily be as old as the desk itself. Could some unoccupied hand in a
history class have defaced the seat in reverence of a long-dead Hebrew
king? Perhaps even the unwitting donor to posterity whose handiwork
is left for us to puzzle over has forgotten his artistry.

The commonest of all names found in schools are those of girls.
There are, I am sure, few boys who, while sitting through the torture
of a particularly uninteresting class, have not let their minds wander to
more pleasant thoughts of the fair sex. Many have left their erstwhile
friends' names to be a mystery to us. If the engraved and inked lines
could speak they might tell of a dance or a picnic and a happy memory
in a masculine world. The mystery remains. These names still mean
something to somebody — possibly a great deal — perhaps just a face from
the past.

These writings, although suggestive of many things, are a great deal
less perplexing than those which have little or no connection with their
habitat. Consider deeply the word "two" scratched heavily and carefully
into the work-surface. Why should a boy spend useful time in placing
so common-place a word in the way of posterity? Shall we or need we
ever know?

To my right there is a crude heart with a name in it — no, not the
name of a girl, as one might expect, but rather the letters "MUC." Who
or what is "MUC"?

Aside from these curious items, the names of people long passed
through the portals of learning, relieve the monotony of the varnish.
These boys, now men, are of the time before my short remembrance. I
do not know them. They strike no chord of memory within me, although
they may in someone. These indentations, if gifted with reason, might
foresee many futures for their creators — a butcher, a baker, a candlestick-
maker. Their artists may now be dead but the mystery survives.

Sometimes on a desk one finds a creation which must have taken
its maker many hours and deprived him of much learning. For instance,
there may be a hole meticulously drilled through three-quarters of an
inch of hardwood. Evidently many people have found labour of that
sort more enticing by far than Latin verbs. Some unenthusiastic students
might call such an act by the name of "occupational therapy" from the
oppressive horror of knowledge. It could appear as such to some, no,
many a more recalcitrant pupil.

These cryptic messages from persons departed will live on — sense-
less, useless, but diverting — as long as there are schools and desks and
writing and words to write; above all, as long as there are students. It
is a part of human nature to leave a memory behind on departing from
any period of our short span of years. — P- g. m. Martin.

ALONE

Where the voices of millions are ringing,
And the eyes of the hundreds stare,
And the throats of the thousands are singing:
Never so lonely as there!

Where the sun and the meadows are smiling.
And the sky and the forest are fair.
And where life is with life reconciling:
Never so lonely as there!

Where the heavens are clouded with thunder.
And the lightning blinds all with its glare.
And eternity's splitting asunder:
Never so lonely as there!

With a longing incessantly aching.
With a restlessness never to numb,
Waiting alone for the breaking
Of the dawning that never will come.

THE FERRY

It was on a Saturday that Tina saw a submarine.

Above Mira the Newfoundland hills are brown in falltime; lonely
farms cling to the gentle slopes with a certain desperation, hoping that
Winter will not come. Even down to the sea itself there is a silent rebuke
to the oncoming season; but now there is no longer an air of blue rest
over the water, instead, a breath of grim murkiness. The cold air is
bitter with the acrid smoke of burning leaves that rises from the cluster
of wooden houses huddled together on one side of the bay, shivering be-
neath the shadow of Lowman. A tinge of self-pity hangs over every-
thing. Summer has moved out and the country waits nervously for Winter
to move in; it is touching like a disused nursery. Relics of the past are
scattered here and there ; on the shore is drawn up a gaily painted sailing
boat, not yet put away; a tree still with leaves quivers in the wind; a
scare-crow waits hopelessly in an empty garden. All these are out of
place and belong to a previous time.

As the wind crept along the dusty road that led to the top of Low-
man it stirred some of the fallen leaves; it sounded as if someone was
trying to follow along the road, noiselessly. Tina, frightened, looked
round and seeing nothing, continued with a quickened step. When she
had reached the top, she tried to discern her house amongst the others.
She saw the bay, the fishing fleet jogging in the harbour; she saw Thor
and Odin, the two islands on the horizon, more clearly than usual to-

106

TRINITY COULEX3E SCHOOL RECORD

day — people said when you could see them clearly it meant rain. Tina
shivered and drew her red jacket more closely about her.

"Over there," she said to herself, "is England". She knew all about
England as her father had stayed there on his way through from Russia.
How far England was over there she did not know nor did she care, but
England was good and Germany was bad. She knew that for certain;
after all you only had to look at that horrid boy Fritz Bleum to find
that out. It was his father who had been interned some time ago.

With this in mind Tina began to run along the top of the hill. She
ran right to the end where she could see the land disappearing beneath
the water, a dizzy distance below. To-day was Saturday — no school. Tina
was especially happy to-day for Dad was coming home. It was over
twenty miles to Thor and Odin and there, three times each week for
the last twelve years Tina's father had safely brought the ferry to harbour.

Dad usually came home for dinner on Saturdays; surely he was not
going to be late to-day? Anxiously Tina looked about for the little white
boat. She saw it a long way off rising and falling over the big rollers.

"He's coming," she cried, "he's coming at last," and she ran home
to fetch her mother.

"He's coming. Dad's coming!"

The "Mary Mac" was not due for another hour at the very least;
though Tina knew this she still dragged her mother out to watch the
boat's slow approach.

"How soon do you think he will be in?" she asked, clutching her
mother's hand. "Why is he so long?"

Fishermen were unloading their boats of the morning catch; some
of the fishing boats were moored to the wharf.

"Oh, Mom, I wish he would come."

"He's coming just as fast as he can, Tina."

"Oh, Mom ..." and then in a very low voice she said, "Look."

The "Mary Mac" though still about ten miles out seemed to crack
apart as if she had struck a rock. A moment later an explosion rent
the air; smoke bellowed out of the ship and it went straight up into the
blue sky, for the wind had dropped.

"Oh, Mom," gasped Tina. With faces white and tense, mother and
daughter stared at the sinking ship.

Many of the nearby fishermen put to sea again in the boats to rescue
as many people as they could. The ferry had only one life-boat and that
already was full. The men in it were rowing as hard as they were able
in order to get beyond the reach of the fearful suction of the sinking
ship.

The "Mary Mac" gave a final lurch and then slid beneath the sur-
face of the water; at the same time, only farther away, a submarine
appeared. When this was seen a general wail of despair rose from the
shore.

TRINITY CODLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 107

A flash of light boomed out from the submarine and the life-boat
leapt into the air and disintegrated.

"Oh!" moaned Tina as she pushed her way out of the crowd; "Oh,
why?" and with one thought in her mind she ran home.

The main street was empty; it appeared that almost everyone was
down on the quay watching. Tina ran in the front door of her house
and slammed it hard. "Oh, Jesus," she said, "please help me." About
religion she knew very little more than that the animals went in two by
two, but in a time like this even that did not help.

By now the first of the survivors were arriving. As the wind had
grown favourable the sailing boats had made the passage very quickly.

Tina went into the kitchen and very carefully took the carving knife
out of the table drawer. Furtively she went out of the back door and
ran up the street. The phrase, "You killed my father," rang again and
again in her ears. When she walked it kept step with her and when she
ran it kept step with her.

She arrived at the house she wanted.

"You killed my father!"

Fortune favoured her. Fritz was in the yard playing. Tina faltered
and then, pale, said in her most bewitching manner, "Fritzy."

Fritzy looked round.

"Fritzy, come here," she continued. Behind her back her fingers
were white round the handle of the knife. Poised for action, she con-
tinued, "Fritzy, I've got something for you."

At that moment, still more of the survivors were coming up from
the quay. Some of them were being carried on rudely made stretchers,
others just aided by the townsfolk.

Tina ran down the hill to the sea. She stumbled, nearly fell, and
then ran on as fast as she could. Resting on a woman's arm, a man was
dragging himself painfully up the street. Tina crashed into them both.
"Oh, Pa!" she said, "Oh, Pa," and threw her arms round her father.
"Oh, Pa, I killed ... I killed . . . oh . . . she cried breathlessly and burst
into tears. "Pa!" —J- H. B. Dodd.

HAMLET BIGSIDE

(with apologies to Will Shakespeare)

To play, or not to play: that is the question:

Whether 't is nobler in the mind to suffer

The blocks and tackles of outrageous opponents

Or to make tackles against a sea of halfbacks,

And by opposing beat them? To lose no week-ends:

No more; and by a loss to say we end

The charley-horse and the thousand natural shocks

That flesh is heir to, 't is a consummation

Devoutly to be wished. To drive, to charge,

To charge: perchance to explode: ay, there's the rub;

For in the rub of analgestone what relief may come

When we have shuffled off this muddy field.

Must give us pause: there's the respect

That makes calamity of so much practice;

For who could bear the aches and pains of time

From the middle's block and the end's charge.

The halfback's plunge and the wingback's reverse.

The odor of sweaty equipment

That gruelling practice makes unworthy,

When he himself might his quietus make

By merely quitting? Who would bruises bear,

To grunt and sweat under a heated lamp

With that dread of something after games

And the weary work from which there is no let;

What makes us rather bear those ills we have?

Thus thinking does make cowards of us all!

And thus the native hue of resolution,

And enterprises of great pitch and moment

Doth make us play in name of action.

And for T.C.S. (?)

THE TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL BOY

The following is reprinted from the first number of the Record,
published in February, 1898. The author was at that time an Old Boy.

He's a young rara avis.

He'll always behave as

A mixture of angel and divil;

His manners are various,

Temper precarious.

He's rollicking, reckless and civil.

He's modest, courageous —
His boldness, outrageous —
He's never just what you expect

him.
But the more that you see
Of what he can be.
The more you will always respect

him.

He's slow to offend.
But quick to defend
When his honour and courage are

doubted.
He'll give his last penny
(That's if he has any),

In fight or in play
He goes in to stay
Till his best is done, you may

depend.
For in fight or in play
There's only one way —
To play the game out to the end.

He's loyal and true
And he never could do
Any cowardly action or mean;
For the one, single rule.
That is taught in the School
Is "Fear God and Honour the
Queen".

But this young rara avis
Will always behave as
A mixture of angel and divil;
He's proud and he's courteous.
Mischievous, virtuous,
Rollicking, reckless and civil.

difficult time. The School is indeed fortunate to have such staunch friends.
Our congratulations to the First Football Team on a Little Big Four
championship and an outstanding season. We cannot claim to have taught
them their fcotball but we do feel that some of the wonderful spirit they
have shown started with our unbeaten team of 1953.

Mrs. P. M. Belton, formerly Matron at Oundle School in England,
has assumed the duties of Nurse-Matron. We welcome her to T.C.S., and
hope she will enjoy her stay with us.

We are delighted to welcome Miss Sara Burns to Boulden House and
extend our sincere congratulations to her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Burns.

Our picnic was held on a lovely day at the end of September and
was a great success. It was surprising tc see how quickly the New Boys
fitted in to the traditional pattern of the day.

Mr. Burns and Mr. Dennys are hard at work on our Christinas

buses finally stopped by a cement bridge spanning the river, everyone
scrambled out. Shcuts were soon echoing through the hills. Camp-fires
were lit and there was the smell of frying bacon and sausage on the
breeze. After the meal of sausage, buns, pop and ice-cream, most boys
began to wander downstream to the "clay bank". Because of the cool
wind swimming was not permitted, although we hear a few hardy types
attempted it. About three o'clock the buses arrived and the boys headed
back to the School. The Boulden House picnic will be remembered as
one of the highlights of the term.

THE DARK ROOM

After a lapse of nearly twenty years there is once more going to be
a Dark Room in Boulden House.

Mr. L. H. Booth, the father of one of our boys, had made a very
generous gift of all the equipment necessary to fit out a first-class dark
room. We are extremely grateful to Mr. Booth for this wonderful gift
and we can assure him that it will be put to good use and will be greatly
appreciated by many generations of Boulden House boys.

THE FUTURE

What wonders does the future hold?

What destinies does the future mould?

Today's schoolboy.

Tomorrow's master.

The future comes creeping faster, faster.

Tomorrow perhaps we'll reach the moon

And possibly we'll see Mars' deserts soon.

Maybe the day after

We'll beat the speed of light.

And reach the far-off stars which are only in sight.

In the future I am sure

Man will discover a wondrous cure

For cancer,

Tuberculosis and M.D.

But when is the future ?

We can but wait and see.

THE SOLITUDE OF THE FOREST

The woods are quiet now, as if ycu were in a great tomb. The trees
are calm as if someone had told them to be quiet. The air is so still that
you could hear a pin drop. The brook beside me is trying to be as quiet
as possible, for the rimning water breaks the silence of the dense forest.

The sun breaks through the treetops putting a glimmer in the small
brook. Suddenly and aggressively a hawk screams and the echo of the
shirill call sends a chill running up your spine. Often I'll hear a small
bird call out five notes on the scale. Still his sad notes ring in my ears
as I turn aroimd and leave this wonderful forest.

— E. J. Royden, Form IIB

THE LAKE

The placidly calm lake was lit up with a golden hue of the setting
sun. Now and again a fish would jump, leaving golden ripples spreading
in every direction. The lengthening shadows of the huge pines cast queer
images on the lake.

In the centre a small black rock projected sharply out of the lake.
This was the frogs' meeting place. As the sun set they started their
various types of dismal oroaks.

Slcwly, as the sun started to set, the radiant colour of the water
began to fade to a dull gray. Then the night breezes set the waters
rippling. The lake is now no longer pleasant to look at.

GEYSERS

The way the Iceland people speak, geyser means to gush. A geyser
is a hot spring which at times spouts hot water up into the air. Geysers
are chiefly found in such places as Yellowstone National Park, Iceland,
and in New Zealand. The eruptions of geysers are caiised by the pressure
resulting from the heating of the water by the hot rocks below the
surface.

"Old Faithful" in Yellowstone Park erupts every hour on the hour.
Each time it erupts it shoots over a million gallons of water into the air.

114

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

Scientists have found that if you put soap or lye into the geyser, it

causes the geyser to erupt very quickly.

There is another geyser in Yellowstone Park which erupts every

twenty minutes on the dot. There is a geyser on the coast of Ungava

Bay where you can catch fish in the bottom of the pool where the water

is cold; and you can put the fish you catch on top of the geyser where

the water is steaming hot; then after about a minute you can eat the fish.

A fascinating thing indeed is the geyser.

— J. D. Dewar, Form IIB.

A PORTRAIT OF SPARKY

My dog, Sparky, is an English Terrier. We have had him ever since
he was a small puppy. He is still a small dog with curly brown hair. He
looks very funny with one ear white and the other brown. When he
watches you with his head cocked in a humorous way, it makes you
want to laugh very hard.

Sparky is an intelUgent little dog and knows many tricks. He will
go to the store for Mother and get our newspaper, or get Dad's slippers
from the bedroom. There are many other tricks, bad and good, which
Sparky performs. He is a very good watchdog and sleeps in the kitchen
where he can run back and forth from back door to front.

One trouble is that Sparky chases cats often and we get many
complaints and phone calls. Sparky is still liked well by everybody.

— I. F. Johnston, Form IIB

ICE CREAM

The invention of ice cream is credited to Marco Polo, when he
brought back the idea from the Orient in the thirteenth century. It trav-
elled from Italy to France, and then to all parts of the world.

The Americans started the first wholesale ice cream factory in 1851.
It was located in Baltimore. The first ice cream was served to guests
in the White House by Dorothy Todd (Dolly) Madison. In 1909, the
Americans were eating about four quarts per person per year. By 1944,
thirty-five years later, 1,900,000,000 quarts a yeair were eaten by the
Americans.

Ice oream is made from cream, milk or milk solids, sugar, and some-
times eggs. Vanilla, fruit ingredients, chocolate, berries and nuts are
added as flavour. The usual composition of the American ice cream
consists of milk, non-fatty milk solids, sugar, gelatin or vegetable gum,
and egg solids.

THE HISTORY OF A HORSE

Horses are large, four-footed animals used for carrying burdens,
or riding. The cavalry used horses during the war. But now automobiles
and tractors have largely replaced the horse in time of peace, and air-
craft and tanks in time of war. However, the horse still has many
admirers and uses.

The horse belongs to the hoofed order of grass eating mammals.
Its first known ancestor was a little creature no larger than a fox, which
lived ages ago. Its fossil remains have been found in Wyoming and New
Mexico and possibly in other parts of the world.

The horse was common in Asia, North Africa, Europe, and North
America in prehistoric times. The American variety died off many
thousands of years ago. The present-day American horse is that which
was brought over from Europe by the Spaniards and, later, by other
countries.

Unlike many animals, the foal, or young horse, is born with all senses
alert, including that of sight. It is born with a full coat of curly hair.
It can walk almost immediately after birth. So you can see that the
horse is one of the most intelligent animals in the world.

— J. G. Darlington, Form IB

AUTUMN LEAVES

I am in my classroom looking out the window. I can see the red oaks
and the green cedar and yellow and red maple.

I like to see the pretty leaves falling to the ground. I love walking
on a Sunday upon the crackling leaves, and to go up on top of a hill
and look at the colourful countryside.

Nature must have a wonderful power to do these marvellous things.
I wish autumn would come three times a year instead of just once.

— A. C. Duncanson, Form IB

FOREST FIRE!

Leaping along a horizon of pines, or licking hungrily over the mossy
ground destroying woodland and wildlife, the forest fire is a colourful but
terrible sight. Ravaging the country, it burns thousands of acres every
year; and the only seclusion for game is the water, a sand spit, or a
rocky point.

Approaching a fire you first notice huge billows of greyish smoke
ascending and slowly disappearing in the blue sky. Then you see the
flames, fanned by the wind, leaping forward and with every tree and
juniper flaring upward.

The fire drives everything before it in wild confusion; rabbits from
their burrows, grouse from their thickets, and squirrels from their nests.

Jig TRINITY COLlLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

Coming upon a bush fire from the rear, you walk over still smouldering
moss and juniper; and by charred gutted trees, some only stumps, some
tall black sentinels standing erect against the sky.

As the sun slowly fades over the horizon, the charred and smolder-
ing landscape stands out vividly against the reddish hue of the setting
sun.

— N. Campbell, Form HAD

HOME

It was night and I had just arrived home from an afternoon hockey
g^me. As I opened the door a pleasant sight met my eyes. Dad was
sitting in an easy chair by the roaring fire getting an opportune look
at the evening paper In one corner stood the Christmas tree brightly
illuminating the whole living-rocm. The radio was on and from the
kitchen came the clatter of dishes and pans as Mom prepared the evening
meal. The aroma of freshly cooked chicken roamed through the house.
Why can't Christmas come three times a year?

Upstairs I could hear my sister running about and my brother yelling
at the top of his voice for Mom to come and hear his new record. It
had been a good hockey game and I was tired but I felt happy as I
settled into a chair by the fire.

ATHLETICS

Co-Captains of Rugby: C. J. Humble, B. B. L. Magee
This year's squad showed great promise both in skill and in team
spirit. It is only a pity our season should have been so badly hit by
'flu that we were able to play only two School matches. I feel certain
that a number of the boys in this squad will make a good showing in the
Senior School in the years ahead.

Our first game against Lakefield at T.C.S. early in October saw a
very much stronger and better balanced Boulden House team roll over
the lighter Lakefield squad for a 50-6 win.

The only other game possible during the season was played against
Ridley on the U.C.C. grounds on November 8th. In spite of steady rain
and a very muddy field, both teams acquitted themselves well and indeed
seemed to enjoy the match. Because the rain had washed out the five-
yard lines, the game was played in two halves. A rouge by T.C.S. towards
the end of the first half put them ahead 1-0. Early in the second half
an unconverted touchdown increased their lead to 7-0. A strong drive
by Ridley then produced a touchdown which was not converted. The
last minute of the game saw Ridley on the T.C.S. one yard line with two

Our sincere thanks are due to Messrs. John Munro, Jim Hughes and

House Crame

The House Game this year was very well played. Rigby seemed to
show greater strength in the line and deserved their 19-6 victory.

SOCCER

Co-Captains: D. G. Shewell; D. C. Rubbra
The beginning of the year predicted a promising season for the
Soccer coach and his squad; six games were scheduled.

The first match, played against Lakefield at T.C.S. on October 8th,
was won by the home team 6-0. The invasion of the 'flu shortly after
resulted in the cancellation of all matches except the Ridley game which
was played and lost 7-1, on November 8th, at U.C.C. This last game
was played under the most gruelling conditions : the presence of a steady
drizzle soon turned the field into slippery mud and the longer kicks of our
larger opponents were definitely a great advantage over tricky dribbling.
Colours:

The following have been awarded their colours for First XI Soccer:
S. C. Biggs, J. J. D. Evans, J. B. G. Fraser, I. F. Johnston, G. J. D,
McLaren. H. L. Murray, D. C. Rubbra, D. G. Shewell, M. B. Sullivan,
J. B. A. Woods, J. M. Worrall, A. E. Venton.

House Game
The House Game, after a long, tight struggle with overtime, ended
in a 1-1 tie. Goals were scored by Fraser for Rigby and Woods for
Orchard.

EDITORIAL

According to H. A. Overstreet, one of the more popular psychologists
of our time, most of us are in the intermediate or middle stage of our
maturity. That is, we tend to believe anything that anyone tells us,
providing we respect him. In the primary stage of our maturity, from
five to eleven years, we accept everything that we see or hear regardless
of our respect. So you see when one enters the intermediate stage he
already has a basic fund of knowledge, in which every fact is securely
anchored and cannot be removed until the contrary is proven. During
the middle period some of these beliefs become corrected, while others
remain fast. In the iinal stage which lasts from nineteen years until death
(since full maturity is the aim of life and has never been attained), we
enter with a mind overflowing with information and ideas. Throughout
these years we tend to enlarge on a certain amount of this information
while the remainder is discarded depending on our career. However, it
is our period, the second period, upon which I intend to concentrate.

Picture the works of a water sanitation plant. Ridiculous as it may
seem, we must endeavour to develop somewhat the same mechanism
within our minds. Allow me to explain. To purify the water that we

2 TRINITY CX)LLEX3E SCHOOL RECORD

drink, lake or river water is passed through countless filters and sieves
until all the suspended particles have been removed. Then by chemical
methods the colloidal particles are extracted. And finally, also with the
use of chemistry, the bacteria are destroyed. Our minds must have the
same accessories if we are to attain not only a large knowledge but a
pure one. One stage in our mental purification system is as important
as the other. Our filters, which move the obvious propaganda, are the
easiest to develop. One of the main purposes of our basic education is
this construction. This is particularly true with History, which, by forcing
us to read "Revisionist Literature", builds a foundation of reliable facts
which we store and can use as filters as we read the press or listen to
the radio. However, this is only successful in destroying the more gross
and obvious distortions which we run up against. How are we to destroy
the colloidal untruths, and even more difficult the microscopic or bac-
teriological lies? These two categories may seem to you small and im-
material, but they are in fact gigantic media on the road toward a mature
mind. They can be removed only by extensive reading in every field of
literature. Except in unusual instances, adapting the mind extensively
to only one area of knowledge tends to leave a blank section in the others.
As we develop our filtration systems it is mandatory that all three work
hand in hand with one another ; for exercising only one at a time is surely
only going to trap one grade of propaganda.

With the elections near at hand we are reading and hearing the
propaganda and platforms of the two largest parties in Canada. The
Liberals, in their campaigning speeches, blame the Conservatives for any
blunders or mishaps which have occurred during their term, and vice
vei-sa. If the CCF or Social Credit party had been a more threatening
rival, would the other parties not have turned all their criticism onto
them? This is an example of propaganda at its worst. If you read a
Canadian newspaper, it is generally either Liberal or Conservative, and
from its editorial columns you read only one side of the story; these in-
variably blame the opposition, and no one else. Bruce Hutchison, writing
for Macleans, points out that while all the blame for Canada's recession
is attributed to one or other of the two main parties, it should really be
blamed upon many factors that have priced Canadian goods out of the
international market. You can see, therefore, just how much of today's
public literature is printed primarily to enhance the promotion of a
doctrine or practice. If you use your purification system with every
sentence you read, this will become much clearer to you.

GAKOL SERVICE

The annual Carol Service was held on Sunday, December 15, with
the Choir under Mr. Cohu's direction performing ably. The Chapel was
well filled for the occasion, while the Christmas trees in the narthex, and
the customary decorations around the altar, and front stalls lent an
appropriately festive air. First came the traditional "Adeste Fideles"
in procession to the gallery followed by the sprightly "Gabriel's Message",
an adaptation of an old Basque Carol. C. L. Davies soloed one verse of
J. F. Bridge's "Christ is Born" with confidence. E. J. D. Ketchum was
impressive as the king in "Good King Wenceslas," while A. D. Ivey, as
the page, showed how valuable could be the contribution of good treble
soloists in the Choir. T. D. Higgins performed admirably as the tenor
soloist in "What Child is This" and this carol, to the traditional English
tune "Greensleeves," was well-intoned by the entire Senior choir. Per-
haps the most popular carol among the rest of the School was the cheer-
ful "Shepherds Awake," Henry Hallstrom's arrangement of a Basque
Noel, which was also sung by tenor and bass. Of the Junior choir selec-
tions, the German "Dear Nightingale, Awake," with Murray, Laing,
Arnold and Dewar as soloists, stood out as a more polished rendition
than "Away in a Manger" to Harry Brook's music, which seemed hesitant.
On the whole, the trebles, unlike the tenor and bass sections, lacked con-
fidence and strength this year, but nonetheless showed their mettle well
in several carols. The familiar "Ding Dong! Merrily on High" finished
the Choir's performance, which was felt to be well up to the standard
of former years. A tape recording of some of the carols had been made
previously, and this was broadcast in Toronto on Christmas Day. The
School sang lustily in the well-known hymns, including "While Shepherds
Watched", "Silent Night" and "Hark the Herald Angels Sing", and the
five Christmas readings completed the effect of a successful Carol service.

OONFIRMATION

On Saturday, March 22, the Right Reverend F. H. Wilkinson, M.A.,
D.D., Lord Bishop of Toronto, officiated at the annual Confirmation
Service. For the event the Choir sang the customary Introit, "I Lift My
Heart to Thee", two special hymns, "Come Holy Ghost, our Souls Inspire"
and Walford Davies "God be in my Head", and an anthem "O Saviour of
the World" by Sir John Goss.

CHOm TRIP TO LONDON

After returning from the Christmas holidays, the Choir, in contrast
to other years, continued with the heavy schedule of practices which it
had begun before the Carol Service. Within three weeks of their return,
the entire Choir was to sing in St. Paul's Cathedral, London, on the
occasion of its 125th anniversary on January 26, and also at the Anglican
Huron College, University of Western Ontario. Credit for the idea must
go to Mr. A. S. Graydon ('30-'32) , whose enthusiasm for male-voice choirs
prompted him to ask T.C.S. to display its talents in London for the benefit
of his fellow parishioners. Mr. Graydon, together with several other
most generous London Old Boys, organized the visit from start to finish,
and was constantly on hand to see that all were entertained and provided
for. To him we owe a deep debt of gratitude, not only for making the trip
possible, but for making it a most enjoyable visit for everyone. We are
also most grateful to Tom Wilding, another Old Boy, who arranged for
us to sing at Huron College, and kept things running smoothly during
our brief and hurried visit there. To the Old Boys and parishioners whose
homes we invaded for the night, we must also extend our sincere, if in-
adequate, thanks.

The morning of Saturday, January 25, dawned snowy and overcast,
but at 8.25 all had crowded into the bus . . . forty-four choristers, in addi-
tion to Mr. Cohu and Mrs. Wilson, who supervised the packing and un-
packing of the vestments, and ensured that everyone looked presentable.
After Toronto, sandwiches and pop were passed out to appease everyone's
increasing hunger. At Hamilton, where fifteen inches of snow had fallen,
several detours were necessary, but the clogged thoroughfares were
negotiated without incident. We reached London shortly after 2.30, and
were warmly welcomed by Old Boys, Bill Hyland, Iain Mitchell, Terry
Hall, and Pete Boughner. Then hamburgers were served to everyone,

courtesy of the Old Boys. Next we proceeded to the Cathedral and re-
hearsed the procession and anthems there, with the organist, Mr. John
Cook, giving much helpful advice. After this session we were whisked
out to Huron College, and found ourselves in a modern, well-appointed
building containing lecture rooms along with a comfortable library and
record room, and a cafeteria. In the Chapel, which we had not previously
seen, and where Mr. Cohu in the gallery was invisible to the Choir below,
we sang evensong. The service went well in spite of the difficulties with
Walford-Davies' setting of the "twenty-third Psalm" which was sung
unaccompanied, followed by Willan's "Nunc Dimittis" and Thiman's
anthem "O Gladsome Light". The principal of the College, the Reverend
W. R. Coleman, spoke briefly to thank us for coming, and hoped some
of the Choir members might some day attend Huron College. Afterwards,
the entire Choir was treated to dinner in the cafeteria. The evening
passed most enjoyably at movies or with some of the many friends of
T.C.S. who appeared to make us welcome. Then we returned to our
various billets for a brief but luxurious sleep.

On Sunday, a practice had been called for ten o'clock at the Cathedral
before assembling for the procession. The Cathedral was packed with

TRINITY COLiEGE SCHOOL RECORD

visitors, some seated on extra chairs and some even standing around
the entrance. Included in the congregation of some eleven hundred were
Dr. and Mrs. Ketchum and the Headmaster read the second lesson.
Although rather overawed by the numbers present, the Choir sang matins
with vitality and enthusiasm. The twenty-third Psalm and "O Gladsome
Light" were repeated, while Stanford's "Te Deum" (B flat) and Martin
Shaw's "Gk) Forth With God" were performed with success. The Reverend
Roy Lees of Grace Church, Port Huron, formerly a Cathedral server and
a Huron College graduate, preached an inspiring sermon. The musical
parts of the service were recorded, and broadcast in London later in the
day. On the whole, there was some tendency for the Choir to go flat,
and for the Seniors to overwhelm the trebles, but judging from the glow-
ing reports published in the newspaper after our departure, the general
impression was highly favourable. At this point we must make grateful
acknowledgement to Mr. Walter J. Blackburn, owner of the "Free Press",
who afforded so much of his paper's space to us.

London hospitality, however, had not yet exhausted itself, for the
St. Paul's Women's Association had prepared a fine sandwich lunch for
everyone in the Parish Hall. Shortly afterwards, a tired but relieved bus-
load set off for the return journey, with memories of a novel and worth-
while choir experience.

RECENT GIFTS TO THE LIBRARY

Just before Christmas it was decided that the library should have
a record player and begin a record collection. The Toronto Ladies Guild
kindly donated the necessary funds and our T.C.S. record library was
opened along the lines of those in large colleges in the United States.
The machine itself has a four speed Gerrard turntable and a high fidelity
amplifier with five pairs of earphones attached. The record collection
already contains about two dozen records including "Hamlet", "I Can
Hear It Now" by Sir Winston Churchill, "The King's College Choir", and
"Othello" — a very good beginning. We extend many thanks to the Toronto
Ladies' Guild for their contributions.

Other gifts of books were gratefully received from Mr. Charles Clay,
P. N. Gross, J. D. Smith, H. D. L. Gordon.

TRIP TO CAMP BORDEN

On Friday morning, November 22, an Air Force bus drove about
thirty-five Fifth and Fourth Formers to the R.C.A.F. Station, Camp Bor-
den. This visit had been arranged by Group Captain West, the Com-
manding Officer of the Station to whom we are most grateful.

Our itinerary was timed down to the minute and we were never far
off. The tour included everything from the Technical Training School to
the laundry department. What interested everyone most was the Fire
Fighter Training section where the firemen performed two "rescues" for
us. In a cement tower filled with smoke generators, two of these trainees
with gas masks forced their way in and removed a third man. He was
not wearing a mask but we suspect he took his off just inside. The rescue
from a T-33 fuselage was more spectacular as two hundred gallons of
gas were poured on the plane. A bucket of sand was placed in the cockpit
and the gas ignited. It looked as if the pilot had no chance at all but two
firemen kept the flames to two feet as a path for the third. The latter
moved right into the flames, grabbed the bucket and walked out. How-
ever, his pants caught on fire, and they turned the extinguishers on him.
The garments were apparently still hot as he wasted no time in removing
them.

Friday night was ours to do as we liked and 'lights out' was not
until eleven o'clock. Our supervisor, Sgt. Paveling, managed to borrow

TRINITY COIjLKGK SCHOOL RECORD H

a T.V. set so that we could watch the Russian vs. Whitby hockey game.
There was free bowling, skating and movies, as well as a hobby shop
and an amateur radio station open to all.

At the cafeteria several airmen asked where we were stationed, being
impressed with our distinctive uniforms. Saturday morning we were
allowed to roam through two large hangars worth three million dollars.
Inside these were several Harvards, T-33's, Sabre Jets, CF-lOO's and one
large Dakota. Most of us sat in the different cockpits and examined the
ejection seats and armament systems. The tour was organized and guided
by Flying Officer Baines and we thank him very much for a most enter-
taining visit.

voice and raises his mind? . . . Hah! "Julie-e-e, Julie, darling, where are
you?" . . . Oh sure, a lot happens in the library although it is not quite
a Hernando's Hideaway! For instance, there are the books Dave hasn't
catalogued yet and the fifty-four new books which still haven't been
put on the shelves — and the reference books which so unaccountably find
their way out past our "stop sign" and the books which find themselves
from one day to 27 years overdue (yes, really 27 years) (We still have
a few "punctual" books left on the shelves) and the dollars which find

dollars indeed ! ) Then there are the lates which inevitably start tomorrow
and the hammering which is part of the building of the shelves in the
stack room for librarians and of course Julie . . . sometimes Jano too.

We have our share of characters too: the boy who smuggles in his
Austrian Yodels to play on the new record player and then leaves them
behind; the inquiring soul who didn't find "Peyton Place" under Geography
(we can't find it at all!) ; the fellow who sought "Reach for the Sky'
on the bottom shelf, and looked for "Auntie Mame" under anatomy
(When the librarians know it is under fiction.'; the fellow who .
"Boys, boys, there's been constant conversation and I really think" .
(self explaining?) . . . and the generous fellows (not to mention any
names — P. N. Gross, J. D. Smith, and H. D. L. Gordon) who gave books
to the library this year; the master who hopes that we will read more
of Chaucer, Keats, Milton, and even Shakespeare in our spare time. Every-
body is more interested in the shelf under the noticeboard. (Howdy is
the name) who leaves his books all over the library; of course there is
Julie.

LOUIS ARMSTRONG

On Wednesday, January 22, thirty boys went up to the new Memorial
Centre at Peterborough to hear Louis Armstrong's jazz band. As Louis
did not arrive at the arena until five minutes before curtain time, a few
of us went backstage to find out if any musicians were there. We met
Trummy Young, Louis' trombone man, who was warming up on the
scales and he told us that Louis was not there yet. When Satchmo finally
arrived Cooper i asked him for his autograph. In his best gravelly voice,
Louis replied, "Ya man, soon's ah git ma uniform on!"

The show soon got under way and Louis brought the audience under
his spell with his version of "St. Louis Blues." After each number, he
would burst out with laughter and jokes. Each of the six musicians
soloed for a while and the greatest applause went to Edmund Hall on
the clarinet and Barrett Deems. The latter seemed in a trance as he even
left his seat and walked around the traps, drumming all the time. Louis
also showed his unique ability with a perfect rendition of "High Society."
He then had a musical battle with Trummy and even chased him back-
stage in "Tiger Rag".

When the show was over Louis announced "And now our national
anthem." He then proceeded to play "The Star Spangled Banner". Half
way through, the picture of the Queen was lit up, adding to the con-
fusion. Nevertheless, it was a fine exhibition of the blues, dixieland and
modem jazz.

THE O.L.C. DANCE

On Saturday, February 15, the School had the pleasure of entertain-
ing thirty girls for a skating party and an informal dance afterwards.
The girls were in grades eleven and twelve at the Ontario Ladies' College
in Whitby, and had accepted a return invitation for the dance previously
held for the boys of the Vth and Vlth forms.

Despite the cold wind blowing that evening, everyone went skating
on the outdoor rink. During the course of the skating, a minor accident
occurred when one couple collided literally head-on. First aid was applied
and they soon returned to the ice, undaunted. Eventually the weather
overcame the staunchest hearts and all retired to the school for dancing.

The "sock-hop" was held in the dining hall to the music of records
and at intervals, a School band, comprising John Wilson, Pat Saunders,
Kip Southam and Bill Warner, enlivened the evening. Just before mid-
night, the dance broke up, and the girls returned to their bus for the
trip home.

The evening was a great success, and it is hoped another may be
held in the near future.

Many thanks go to Mrs. Clark and her kitchen staff who prepared
a delicious supper for the dancers.

THE LIBRARY SALE

On Saturday, March 1, the day finally arrived. The much publicized
library sale was to take place at 7.00 p.m. in rooms B and C. By 6.40
p.m., there were so many boys eager to get in and buy that the doors
were opened. By 7.00 o'clock, the sale was in full swing. The prices of
the books, which were duplicates of copies in the library, ranged from
five to fifty cents. Throughout the evening there were several "lucky
number" draws with books being awarded as prizes. At 7.15 came the
highlight of the evening when, with Dave Gordon as auctioneer, bids
were accepted for sets of encyclopedias and one set of poetry books. These
were far higher than expected, and gains of from six to eleven dollars
per set resulted. By 8.00 o'clock, the sale had practically exhausted it-
self, but throughout the evening more than three-quarters of the avail-
able books were sold for a total profit of more than sixty dollars; this
sum was added to the library fund.

The sale was enjoyed by both buyers and librarians, and it is hoped
that it may become an annual event.

PANCAKE TOSS

Fourteen boys represented the various forms and the Prefects in the
annual pancake scramble held in the gym on Shrove Tuesday, February
18. Farnsworth was first on the putty, which was thrown, as usual, by
Mr. Batt. The struggle was less spectacular than in other years, as, from
the first, the spectators clustered around a knot of contestants and tended
to inhibit their movements. After the required two minutes of lacerations
and bruises had elapsed, the various portions were weighed, and Shaw
of VIC was found to have the largest piece. By tradition, he received
the prize of five dollars.

THE CHRISTMAS PLAY

For the end-of-term entertainment on Tuesday, December 17, the
Dramatic Society, under the capable direction of Mr. T. A. Wilson, pro-
duced "Wife Required", a farce in one act by Falkland Gary and Philip
King. The play concerns a middle-aged businessman, Henry Aspinall,
played by Pete Taylor, who runs a newspaper advertisement for a woman
interested in matrimony. Taylor gave a polished performance in his role
of trying to conciliate the unusual applicants who appear, becoming
steadily more harrowed in the process. Nick Ketchum portrayed Miss
Gott, his faithful and lovelorn secretary, with hilarious success, while
John Richards was highly convincing as the brusque-mannered, inde-
pendent Barney Dare who, usually away engaged in African exploration,
seeks a marriage of financial convenience. John Tottenham shone as the
beautiful girl who first arrives by mistake. Avalon Pippin, the volatile

TRINITY COLI.EGE SCHOOL RECORD

mystic in constant communication with Mirabelle, her guiding spirit, was
played by Hugh Paisley, who caused countless laughs. In a play with
a majority of female roles, it is surprising that these should all have been
handled so well, and much credit must go to Mr. Wilson for a skilful and
imaginative job of directing. Thanks are due also to Mrs. Spencer for
her costume work, and to Mr. Bishop, stage hands and electricians for
efficiency behind the scenes.

PROFESSOR ALLCUT'S DISCUSSION ON ENGINEERING

On Thursday, January 30, Professor E. A. Allcut very kindly spoke
in the library to boys interested in engineering. His first point was a
truth equally applicable to life as to engineering. This was, that the
more work that is done on a thing the more it is worth. The truth of
this is illustrated by the increase in a metal's value with refining and
the similar increase in a job's worth when well done.

Mr. Allcut then went on to say that an engineering career is not
completely ruled out if a student does not obtain first class marks in
maths and science. Ability in French, English and Art is also an asset
to an engineer as he must be able to express himself in this bilingual
country, and have an eye for beauty of form, in order to make engineer-
ing products attractive to the buying public.

When Mr. Allcut had finished his prepared talk he answered questions
raised by the boys. These mostly concerned courses to the University.
He told his questioners that in the first year most of the Engineering
courses were similar and so a student did not have to specialize until
his second year. The exception was Engineering-Physics which is a harder
course and must be decided on in the first year. He recommended Business
Engineering to boys who planned to go into a business that had to do
with manufacturing.

Mr. Allcut finished the evening by telling us that if he had a son
who was not sure what he was going to do, he would advise him to take
engineering as a good general background for life.

TRIP FOR FUTURE ENGINEERS

On Saturday, March 1, eight boys interested in engineering as a
career were conducted on a tour through the Metallurgical, Geophysical
and Mineralogical Department of the University of Toronto.

The party was driven to Toronto by Mr. Wilson and left Port Hope
at the refreshingly early hour of 6.30 a.m. On arrival at the University
they checked the time of the tour and then had breakfast at a nearby
restaurant.

At 9.15 a group of aspiring engineers gathered in the Assembly room
of the Mechanical Building where they were shown a film on mining in

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

Northern Ontario. After the film, four groups of about fifty were
organized, with two guides each.

In the Mineralogical Building the party found a large room with
open tables of various rocks. Next they saw samples of various metals
and gems. In the basement was an electric brain and also an X-Ray
Unit, used to investigate distances between the atoms of substances. A
ductibility test was carried out to find the strength of brass when it is
stretched.

The party was then divided into smaller groups and shown a geiger
counter and some of the practical applications of geophysical experiment-
ation.

In the next building large working models of mine shafts were dis-
played, which clearly showed how the ore was removed from the mine.
The mechanical and chemical methods of refining minerals were demon-
strated. The group was then shown various types of mining equipment
such as drills, picks, and lanterns and also a model of an ore train used
in a mine. Miners' apparel and safety equipment was on display as well.

One of the most interesting displays showed samples of pure minerals,
such as aluminum, gold and steel, in ingot form. All the ingots weighed
the same, but varied in size according to density. Here, also, an electronic
microscope was shown to the group.

In the liquid air division several fascinating experiments were carried
out. Liquid air was poured into a pail of water which then froze. Some
was dropped on the floor and disappeared instantly in a cloud of vapour.

This well organized and enlightening tour was finished off with a
treat of cake and cokes. The boys are much indebted to the university
authorities, and to Mr. Wilson for making their visit possible.

RIDLEY DEBATE

On Friday, November 22, a team of Peter Allen, Dennis Willows,
and Ted Ketchum travelled to St. Catharines to debate with Ridley. T.C.S.
supported the motion, "Resolved that all earth satellites should be placed
immediately under the control of an international agency." Allen opened
the debate with a definition of the word "satellite" and continued by
imderlining the success of the United Nations, showing that an inter-
national agency would be able to cope adequately with the problems of
satellite control. Ketchum pointed out the financial disadvantages of de-
veloping satellites on both sides of the Iron Curtain, instead of pooling
the world's resources. He gave examples of international co-operation
in other fields, and showed that scientists favour it. Willows emphasized
that satellite research is merely another branch of a rocket and missile
program, and that therefore we are morally bound to form an organization
to control it. If we do not, he stated, a devastating war may well result.
The opposition's first speaker, Mike Millman, claimed that international
control of satellites would be impossible to achieve. Furthermore, he
stated, competition would cause a speedier development of satellites; he
felt the government was afraid to try and keep pace with Russia. Jeremy
Sturgeon belittled the importance of satellites on the international scene,
asserting that at present they were chiefly useful for propaganda pur-
poses. Besides, Russia would demand the withdrawal of NATO bases in
Europe in return for her co-operation in satellite research. The third
opposition speaker, Murray Peglar, argued convincingly that we should
not trust Russia, with her present overtures of peace, when she had
always shown herself hostile to suggestions of international co-operation ;
he felt she would only use our satellite data to her own advantage
and emphasized that fear must have been the cause of the motion. When
the House was thrown open to debate there were many well-presented,
and often humorous speeches from the floor. The government was highly
impressed with the enthusiasm shown for the debate amongst the audience.

After lengthy deliberation, the judges awarded their decision in
favour of Ridley. The chairman said that the opposition had strayed
from the realities but their presentation was convincing. The government
had brought forward many worthwhile facts, but had seemed unorganized,
and lacking in confidence.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 19

Since none of the T.C.S. boys had been to St. Catharines before, the
Ridley debaters very kindly showed them around the school, and they
were most interested in the new buildings and facilities. Many thanks
go to the judges for giving freely of their time and advice, and to the
Ridley boys and staff who showed unlimited hospitality.

U.C.C. DEBATE

On Friday, February 21, Dave Stockwood, Peter L. Gordon and Ian
Robertson represented the School in debate against U.C.C. at Toronto.
T.C.S. supported the motion "Resolved that television is a menace to
North American youth." Stockv/ood opened the government's arguments
by dealing with the mental aspect of television, particularly advertising
and subliminal advertisements which impress useless information on the
viewer's mind by constant repetition. The first U.C.C. speaker. Burton
Lait, argued that a large percentage of North American youth is not
actually in contact with T.V., and showed that television had received
first-rate recognition, by the decision of the Pope to give it a patron saint,
St. Clair. Robertson, our next speaker, covered the physical aspects of
the question, claiming that constant T.V. viewing would lead to physical
decadence in our race, and he also pointed out the evil of purchasing tele-
vision sets before home necessities. Russell Biggar of the opposition
also dealt with the physical aspects, saying few doctors considered that
T.V. had a harmful effect on the eyes, and in general the physical hazards
of viewing it had been exaggerated. Gordon then argued that constant
watching of television in the home not only disrupted the normal routine,
but tended to destroy the unity of the family. He then said that from a
point of view of education, television was harmful, as it discouraged
one from reading. Bill Redoe of the opposition, countered with a very fine
speech in which he summed up the opposition's case and showed that
many advances and inventions in history had at first been considered
harmful, but had later proved to be highly beneficial to all mankind; he
cited many examples, from the Gutenberg Bible to the innovations of
modern science, to prove this. Stockwood gave a convincing rebuttal, in
which he stated that a menace is in fact a threat, and as such, television
is a menace to all North American youth, whether they are in actual
contact with it or not, just as the cold war is a threat to the entire world.
He also suggested that a patron saint might well have been appointed
to protect us from the evils of television. There followed some five
speeches from the floor. The judges awarded their decision to the opposi-
tion, largely on the basis of Redoe's most convincing speech, but the
chairman complimented the debaters of both sides on the high quality
of the speaking. All who were present agreed that this was not only
a highly entertaining, but a most strongly contested debate, so much so,
indeed, that the longevity of the U.C.C. clock tower has been judged in

jeopardy ever since. In all sincerity, however, we must congratulate
Upper Canada on its fine performance in all the inter-school debates this
year. Our encounter with the U.C.C. boys was a most rewarding and
valuable experience in public speaking.

S.A.C. DEBATE

For the last inter-school encounter of the debating season, S.A.C.
visited T.C.S. on Friday, March 7. The motion was "Resolved that com-
munism is superior to democratic capitalism." Supporting the motion
for S.A.C. were Dave Denison, Bill Osborne and Bill Snyder. Denison
defined communism and introduced the government's argument on a
foundation of 'theoretical communism'. Osborne compared the workers
of communism and capitalism on an economic basis, while Snyder spoke
convincingly of the 'down-trodden masses of the democracies'. The
opposition was composed of Taylor, Holton and Thompson i. Taylor
opened the T.C.S. argument by discussing the economics of Russia, using
her as an actual example of communism. Holton spoke on the social
side again using Russia as an example. Lastly, Thompson spoke about
the theory of communism and emphasized its weaknesses. The judges,
Mr. R. B. Baxter, Mr. R. T. Currelly, and Mr. R. J. W. Sculthorpe, felt
the most convincing arguments had been brought forward by the opposi-
tion, but found little difference in the actual presentation of the speeches
from both sides. It was in general the most strongly contested debate
of the season, and judging from the unusually large attendance, one of
special interest to the audience.

The author of the masterpiece below is discontented with present
day book reviews to be found in many of our leading magazines and news-
papers. He feels very strongly that most contemporary critics are far
too fault-finding and tend to create critical and sardonic attitudes among
the readers towards even the best of literary works. In keeping with this
accepted modern day tradition, the author has attempted to apply this
treatment to one of the best known and beloved stories of our time.

BOOK REVIEW: LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD

I have just completed a complex top level review of the current novel
"Little Red Riding Hood". This entailed a close study of human character
contrast in association with the facts, situation and circumstance and
coupled with clear, keen, comprehensive conception of the forces that
motivate the trends and changes that develop the overall course of the
plot. I have made a most detailed and cohesive analysis of the whole

TRINITY COIJL.EX3E SCHOOL RECORD 23

story, sentence by sentence, and word by word, and am left with one
general impression in mind. It in no way appealed to my intellectual
apparatus . . . Quite frankly, I hated it.

The story concerns a very dull, neurotic little girl. Little Red Riding
Hood, whose only legitimate claim to fame seems to be that she was
nearly eaten by a wolf. To start with. Little Red Riding Hood's overbear-
ing mother kicks Little Red out of the house (whose cupboard was bare,
but that's another novel) with a basket of goodies and points her in the
general direction of Grammaw's house. Little Red is to take the goodies
and look after Grammaw who is ill with leukemia, and multiple sclerosis.
Unfortunately for Little Red, on the way to Grammaw's house there is
a very deep, dark, dense, wood full of wolves. Wolves like to eat little
girls, goodies, and can even be persuaded to try grandmother if the com-
petition is keen enough. Undaunted, the little Miss Hood skips merrily
on down the path whistling a few catchy bars of Handel's Largo. She
is soon delayed by a wolf on the path who asks her where she is going
and what she has in her basket. She tells him. (We knew you were
dumb Little Red — but this is ridiculous!) Strangely, the wolf is most
unexpectedly called away on an errand so that Little Red is the only
person v/ho's surprised a half an hour later to find the wolf at Grammaw's
house in Grammaw's bed, dressed up as Grammaw (Ed. Note: Grammaw
is inside the wolf — this may eliminate confusion, but man, this boy is in
for indigestion problems i.

Little Red doesn't realize that isn't the real Grammaw. She asks
Grammaw several very embarrassing questions-like, "what's the tail for?"
Really Red you must have known something was up. If you thought Gram-
maw was going to look like that you could at least have bought her a
Lady Schick. Needless to say, the wolf isn't particularly interested in the
small talk. Nevertheless, Red continues the barrage of questions.

"Why are your teeth so long? Isn't it nice out today? Why are your
teeth so long ? Have you seen a dentist lately ? Why are your teeth so
long?"

The next thing you know, a worthless, nearby woodcutter has rescued
Little Red, killed the wolf and restored Grammaw — what a ham — goss to
show you that some guys just aren't content with m'nor roles. Every-
thing was going so well until he showed up. My only satisfaction came
in reading the author's sequel where Little Red is eaten on the way back
home from Grammaw's.

In conclusion, I should like to suggest that you don't read this book
if you can possibly help it. Rather try "Red Riding and the Hoods" which
is concerned solely with a "rat-pack" gang in Harlem and has nothing
whatsoever to do with Little Red Riding Hood, her mother, the wolf,
Grammaw, the woodcutter or Woodrow Wilson.

THE FIRE OF 1928 DEMOLISHING THE BUILDING COMPLETED IN 1895

THIRTY FIRELESS YEARS SINCE THEN

Just thirty years ago on Saturday, March 3, 1928, at about two p.m..
Trinity College School burst into flames. The first building to go was
the covered rink standing where the outdoor rink is today. The fire is
thought to have started with the spontaneous combustion of some rags
covered with linseed oil in the cricket room of the rink. At any rate, it
quickly spread throughout the wooden frame building in zero degree
cold. Its sparks crossed over to the gymnasium and there began feeding
on the wooden shingles and floor.

Fire fighters from the town had now arrived, and attempted to
quench the flames but found it a difficult job as there was very little
pressure for their hoses and the water could only I'each a certain height.

The flames had not yet reached the main building from the gym
and a daring young man with a water bucket attempted to douso the
eaves of that building. On his third try, however, his enthusiasm led to
catastrophe. The bucket slipped from his hands and plummeted earth-
wards toward the Reverend Doctor Orchard. He was struck abovo the
eye but continued to battle the flames. -

The fire raged on throughout the day and finally caught the
wooden rafters which were under the slate shingles on the main building
roof. From there the top floor was destroyed and the blaze descended
floor by floor. Of course, at the top where it started, the fire met with
no resistance as there was not enough pressure to throw the water up
to such a height. The flames were so bright that people in Rochester

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

reported seeing the light. The first burned on into the night and wasn't
entirely extinguished until late on Sunday morning. The Lodge was the
only building that remained standing intact.

Now in the early stages of the fire, people in the main building had
been told to throw all the clothes they saw out a certain window onto
a fast growing pile. With about one hundred and ten boys in the School
at that time the pile grew pretty big and it was the job of a few unlucky
masters during part of the ensuing holiday to sort these clothes and
put them in dunnage bags to be shipped to Woodstock, the home of T.C.S.
for the next two and one half years. After the lengthy holidays, the boys
returned there to occupy an old Baptist college which had recently been
inhabited by young ladies. It was a pleasant substitute as it included a
swimming pool, and had rooms for two.

There the School remained until April 1930, when the new buildings
at T.C.S. were ready for occupancy.

all the boys are wearing long hair, often parted in the middle — also,
most of the masters and some of the older boys wore moustaches. High,
strongly-starched collars were then in fashion with the masters, and
some senior boys wore them as well.

The year 1899 was not a particularly successful one for the Trinity
First Football team, since we had an unusually light team and tackling
is mentioned as being poor, especially in the Ridley game. Two games
were played with Port Hope, the first one resulting in a 0-0 tie, the second
leaving us victorious by a score of 14-0. The Ridley game, in which we
were defeated 27-0, was played in Toronto in late October. The previous
day, because of an accident further down the line, the train which was
carrying out first team had been rerouted over a very circuitous route,
with the result that the journey took over seven hours, leaving one and
all thoroughly exhausted once it was over. The U.C.C. game, which we
lost 12-0, was played here two weeks later on a windy bitterly cold Sat-
urday, against a much heavier team.

Hockey, as played in 1907, differed considei-ably from the game we
know today. For one thing, a forward pass was illegal. Also, there was
a six-man team which played the entire game without any substitution —
hence, hockey teams were quite small, usually consisting of seven or
eight men. The sixth man was known as the rover, a position now non-
existent, and the two defensemen were known as point and counterpoint.
The 1907 First Hockey team had, it appears, varying luck. When they
met S.A.C. in Toronto late in January for the first game of the year,
they lost 4-1; although we were leading by one goal at half-time, our
opponents managed to get four quick goals during the second half. From
the return match two weeks later, S.A.C. also emerged victorious by a
score of 6-4. Late in February, we defeated a visiting Cobourg team by
a 7-1 margin. No information can be found on either U.C.C. or Ridley
games. In all the 'Record' magazines published about this time, all games
are described in the most minute detail and several pages of close print
are often necessary for a full description of a hockey game or a cricket
match. Some of these sports write-ups make very good reading, as they
are often very humorous.

TRINITY COLI>EGE SCHOOL RECORD

LEISURE AND THE INTELLECTUAL

A great deal has been published in periodicals and broadcast over
radio and television within the last few months concerning the role of
the intellectual in society. Scientists, in particular, stand up to criticize
the common attitude towards such men, who are envisaged as "eggheads",
as remote beings, hiding away in top-security laboratories with their
test-tubes and cyclotrons, and therefore unfit to be trusted with nuclear
weapons. Educators, in turn, are called upon to answer attacks on them-
selves and their colleagues concerning their effectiveness in an increas-
ingly complicated scientific era. The results so far of the International
Geophysical Year, indeed, are shining examples of just what startling
progress science is making; the ability of man to launch a projectile
which can stay free of the earth's gravitational attraction for a period
of months is the first stage in his program of freeing himself from
earthly bounds, to travel to other planets, and, perhaps, to discover better
modes of living. Educators are doing their best to keep pace with the
bounds of science, and with an ever-increasing classroom enrolment. In
effect, the role of the intellectual in our civilization is vital, if not appre-
ciated; science is prolific, if unrewarded. But as for the intellectual's
personal way of life, if not his methods of teaching and research, there
are undoubtedly grounds not only for criticism, but for alarm. The in-
tellectual, in fact, is by no means an integral part of society; he has
voluntarily segregated himself from it, besides being swept apart by his
own insatiable curiosity. Let me show why this is unhealthy.

We live in an anomalous age when the three dimensions of space
are constantly being expanded, while the fourth, the dimension of time,
is being pinched. Two world wars have contributed to building up the
dubious values of haste into an ideal of life. But the chief instigator
of a continually more hurried existence has been science. It is science
which has conceived mass production, and it is science which now con-
ducts a ceaseless search for more efficient methods in manufacturing

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 29

and business. Science has speeded up the tempo of living, and scientists
live accordingly. It is commendable, indeed, that a new vaccine or cure
should be developed in as short a time as possible. But why should there
be deadlines for the development of automatic machines for industry,
and of missiles for the government? Science is rushing towards some
intangible goal, certainly not peace. It is dragging education along with
it, for as science increases the world's complexity, there is much more
to be learnt in the same length of time; standards increase since univer-
sities become overcrowded, but to compensate for this, more material
is simply packed into a nine month course. It has been found that there
are always bright students who are willing to sacrifice everything to
gain a coveted scholarship, and thus the Upper School examinations
must become more and more difficult over the years. The student who
hopes to do well must limit his athletic and extra-curricular activities;
the rarity of a boy who is both a good student and a top athlete is proof
of this. Those who refuse the challenge are eliminated in the scholastic
pinch; the ones who leave in the lower grades become the labour force
or the ordinary office workers — the "nine-to-five" types, whose work may
be uninspiring, but whose capacity for physical exercise and enjoyment
is not inhibited.

The student situation may be compared to that of labour. Many
a European immigrant has arrived in Canada with a strong determin-
ation to work twelve hours a day, if need be, in order to make
enough money to establish himself comfortably. But he soon finds that
he is bound by the adamantine laws of labour, and he must seek odd
jobs if he is to supplement the income of his forty-hour week. Similarly,
the clever student is prepared to work unceasingly, at the expense of
his social and athletic activity, to achieve scholastic prowess. But the
difference is that students are not unionized, and all must now try to
keep pace with the few. Thus hours are not shortened, but lengthened,
and the adult intellectual is necessarily affected. For not only does the
routine of haste become an intrinsic part of the individual, and continue
as such through his university years until he is an intellectual himself,
but teachers are forced to work ever harder, to spend more time draft-
ing and marking examinations and tests, in order to force their students
through the ever-narrowing funnel of university requirements.

Educators, then, are becoming continually more pressed for time
in meeting increased standards, while scientists struggle to keep abreast
of their Russian counterparts, on government orders, or to provide greater
automation and more efficient production methods for an ever-expand-
ing industry. The situation may not appear dangerous now, but surely
the gap between the intelligentsia and the proletariat is widening. Labour-
ers, and to a certain extent, office workers, are obtaining more and more
leisure time, while intellectuals are working feverishly to provide more
of this leisure time for the labour force, and to train more intellectuals.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

It is significant that scientists on both sides of the Iron Curtain are
experimenting with drugs and electronic apparatus which will enable an
individual to live easily on three or four hours sleep each night. There
must be a purpose behind such research, besides pure scientific curiosity.
Is it to enable the workers to labour in the factories for longer hours,
to produce more manufactured products? It is far more conceivable
that these devices will be used by the intellectuals, and even by the
students, so they can enjoy a longer productive day in which to forward
their barbaric crusade for hurry.

It is my belief that the intellectual is losing his capacity for enjoy-
ment. He simply has not enough time to entertain himself — not only by
going to movies, plays and lectures which might broaden his outlook,
but by playing a round of golf, or taking a weekend off to go hunting or
skiing. It is quite probable that if the present trend continues, he will
not have time to get married. Certainly it is paradoxical that the teacher
and the scientist, who are best equipped by their superior learning to
use leisure time wisely, receive the least of it. The labourers must be
shown how to use their ever-increasing time off. This can only be
accomplished by the intellectuals. Suppose part of the solution is to
obtain more physical exercise. The scientists will not be able to partake
of this, simply because their time is much more limited. If universal
peace were to come to the world, intellectuals would immediately have
to transfer their creative ability from say, missile research, to the
problems of unemployment which peace would inevitably bring. Surely
an alarming class distinction is developing in our society because, on the
one hand, the intellectuals keeping mentally alert but not physically fit;
on the other hand, the labour force must necessarily emphasize physical
fitness, since their education is, by comparison, quite elementary. To
me it is quite conceivable that one of these classes will eventually try to
dominate the other, on the basis of mental or physical superiority, with
disastrous results to civilization. It is uncertain whether the labour force,
by sheer weight of numbers, could overcome the potentially fiendish
psychological controls which science is capable of invoking, but the net
result would be a drastically changed, and probably highly unstable
society.

What must be done to balance out this social split is to produce
more scientists and teachers, not with an eye on Soviet progress in this
field, but with a view to distributing the work of science and education
through more individuals. This would allow intellectuals to broaden
their now specialized interests — for example, to enter politics, whose
present complement of lawyers and businessmen naturally causes favor-
itism and narrow-mindedness. It would also enable everyone to participate

who are often better paid than intellectuals. The socialist planning which
increased higher education demands, then, should not busy itself with
providing for labour and the unemployed; it should attack at the root
of this and the other social problems which I have outlined, by providing
more intellectuals, who can solve the problems, yet who will have time
to live as healthy human beings, rather than as slaves to humanity.

THE BIG MAN

They rushed into the room,

They surrounded him there.

They grinned and mocked and poked,

They scoffed at his threats,

They ruffled his hair

And laughed 'til he reddened and choked.

This man had been mighty,

Had had power and pride.

His word to a race was command;

He would stride like a peacock,

It was often he lied.

But he drank his martinis with grace.

He was cowering now.
This fat, godless man.
His eyes, like jelly, set.
They'd hang or cremate him,
To hell with his soul,
Hungarians will never forget.

ARTIST'S VISION

"I am the land that listens,
I am the land that broods;
Steeped in eternal beauty,
Crystalline waters and woods."

In the background silhouetted against an overcast morning sky, are
the sombre peaks of a lofty mountain range, the sides of which are sparsely
wooded. The mountains are a hazy blue and in front of them, miles of
lowlands stretch to the edge of a broad, limpid river.

Above these lowlands, mist eddies and curls in a light autumn breeze
and rises like so many tormented wraiths above the trees. Here and

there a tall pine rears above the lower deciduous trees which have turned
the land into a kaleidoscopic mass of reds, yellows and browns. It is
a phantom city of shadowy, grey spires outlined against the spectral
white of the gamboling spirits which will flee the graveyard at the crack
of dawn.

In the left foreground a small headland projects into the river, with
an ancient, gnarled pine bent over and crooked like an old man. A crude
landing stage of rocks is in the centre foreground. Tied up end to end,
with one rope going to the wharf and the other leading off to the right,
are two canoes which seem like four, so perfectly are they reflected in
the water.

Chill, eerie mist gyrates and whirls in ghostly shapes ; paintings and
other works of art can be but crude static imitations of the dynamic
reality, with little such power to intoxicate the imagination. In this setting
the tents of the canoe party would be a sacrilege and are best unseen.
The whisper of the wind in the trees and the hushed murmur of the river
fall softly on the ear. Even the smell of the leaf mould on the forest
floor is fresh and stimulating. In this solitude the expectant silence can
almost be felt.

The magnitude of the rugged, sombre mountains towering over the
glassy, mirror-like smoothness of the river inspires wonder at the beauti-
ful, empty vastness of nature's northern domain; one senses the meager-
ness of man's greatest buildings.

Such is the spell of the "Mist Fantasy" by J. E. H. MacDonald, one
of Canada's "Group of Seven."

AUTO RACING

The history of this sport is tied in very closely with that of the
whole automotive industry. As soon as man was able to build an auto-
mobile he wanted to see how fast it would travel. The classic Indianapolis
race has been running since the first decade of this century. It was only
a few years before this that the first motor-car was built. From speeds
of forty and fifty miles an hour, the standard of racing has climbed
steadily. Today the record for the "flying mile," set by the late John
Cobb in 1949, stands at almost four hundred miles an hour!

Europe has always been the most popular centre of racing in the
world. The Italians have contributed more to the sport in general than
any other nationality. Many of the most famous drivers and builders
of all time have come from this country. They include such names as
Nuvolari, Farina, Castelotti, Ferrari, and Maserati. The two latter names
are probably the best known racing cars in the world today.

Germany, too, is famous, especially for the well-known Mercedes-
Benz. This car, however, has not appeared in the larger classes since the
tragic accident at Le Mans three years ago.

To many people, auto racing means Le Mans, site of the 'Twenty-
four hour Endurance Race'. Nearly all drivers and cars have raced here
at the height of their careers, and thus France is a prominent nation in
this field.

A close rival to Italy in both drivers and machines is Great Britain.
The famous Jaguar has always been respected and feared whenever taking
part in a race. At present there are several top-ranking British drivers
including Moss, Hawthorn, Collins and Bueb.

America, too, has been active in car racing, and not just the northern
half. Argentina is the site of one of the half dozen or so races each
year held for the world championship. A native of this country is the
incomparable Juan Manuel Fangio.

The United States and more particularly Indianapolis, is the centre
of one of the most fiercely contested races of the year. Outside of this,
however, it is away behind the standards of Europe.

Of course, all car-racing is not of the same type. The "big car" races
can be divided into three types. The one we are probably most familiar
with is the specially built track race. There are only two famous tracks

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

of this type in use today, Indianapolis and Monza in Italy. The only
care built specifically for such a track are the Indianapolis machines.
These care are specially built to turn to the left, have poor brakes, and
only a two-speed transmission. Thus they are pretty well useless except
on their own track.

The great European 'Grand Prix' events are run either on a course
separated from all roads, such as at Aintree, near Liverpool, or on a
main highway track barricaded for the particular race. An example of
the latter type is found in the Grand Prix of Monaco where the contestants
make a few dozen laps around the main streets of Monte Carlo.

The automobiles using these tracks are known as Formula One racing
care. Their engines are limited to two and a half litres, slightly more
than half the size of the four-point-two litre Indianapolis machines.
Because of the type of course used, these European cars must be able
to turn to the left or right equally well. They have a five speed gearbox
and excellent disc brakes to allow them to manoeuvre around the sharpest
hair-pin turns yet have top speed to spare on the stretches.

With this comparison of these two quite different types of racing
care it is obvious why the European Formula One machines did not
compete against the Americans in the 'International Five-Hundred' at
Monza last July. A similar situation would arise if Lew Hoad challenged
Azam Khan for the "racquets" championship, to be played on a tennis
court.

The third type of speed event is road racing which is now struggling
for survival. The most famous event of this type is the thousand miles
of Italy's "Mille Miglia." This race is run on open roads and through
nimierous town and villages. While no other cars are allowed on the
roads, it is very difficult to protect the spectators. This is the reason
for the question mark in the future of road racing.

Because of the conditions of this type of race, not racing cars but
sports racing cars are used. The difference is that the latter must have
fenders, lights, and a cockpit for the navigator as well as the driver.
These extras are obviously very necessary although they add to the car's
weight.

In every single race the outcome depends upon two factors which
will be discussed here. They are, of course, the drivers and their cars.
For the last four years and once before in 1951 the world champion racing
driver has been Juan Manuel Fangio. He ranks with those sportsmen
who have been able to dominate a sport by themselves for a number of
years. Although he is now well on in his forties Fangio is not slipping.
Last year he won three out of the six championship 'Grand Prix' races.
This included his fourth successive victory in the German "Grand Prix"
at Nurburgring which may be called his finest hour. With only two fifteen-
mile laps to go he was being led by Collins and Hawthorn, driving as
a team for Ferrari. Yet even these two, who are both among the top

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 35

half-dozen drivers, were unable to hold off Fangio. On the last lap he
passed Hawthorn to win possibly his greatest victory.

Do not suppose that Fangio wins because he has a better car. He
has driven a number of different makes, including Mercedes-Benz and
Maserati, and still finished out in front. Nor does he win because he
has a heavy foot. Fangio usually remains about fifth, saving himself
and his car for the final stages of the race. Then, when he starts creep-
ing up on the leaders there is no holding him back. And yet Fangio's
engine is found after the race to have less wear than his competitors'.
This is because he has mastered the art of gear-changing and cornering.

There is one more outstanding quality of Fangio and that is his iron
nerve. For example, in the 'Grand Prix' at Monte Carlo, there is a tunnel
under which all cars must run every lap. While his competitors slow
down and concentrate profoundly, Fangio accelerates up to, and through
the tunnel as though it wasn't even there. But he cannot be called a
daredevil because his reflexes and skill are more than a match for his
nerve.

Fangio's closest competitor who may even overthrow the master this
year is Britain's Stirling Moss. He is already acknowledged to be second
only to Fangio. Last year Moss won three of the six championship races
also, but finished behind Fangio because he was unable to compete in
one of the races. He was driving the new Vanwall, a British car built
privately by Mr. Tony Vandeyvell. With this machine Moss won the
'Grand Prix d'Europe', at Aintree. This was the first time a British
driver in a British car had won the event. In the process Moss broke his
own lap record three times. Thus 1958 is shaping up to be an exciting
contest between the two best drivers. In the first event of the year, in
South America, Moss was victorious with Fangio fourth. The master is
down but by no means out.

One of the most publicized aspects of car-racing is the frequency
of accidents. These accidents are very serious and many of the best
drivers have been killed. Of the Indianapolis winners since 1953, two
have been killed, one seriously injured and one wisely retired. Last year
in the Mille Miglia, the millionaire Spanish driver, the Marquis de Portago,
with only a few dozen miles to go, punctured a tire and killed himself,
his co-driver and several bystanders. In 1955 at Le Mans, a speeding car
exploded, killing over fifty people in auto racing's worst disaster. Such
accidents have prompted the organizers to really think about safety. The
great Piero Taruffi, a famous Italian engineer who won the 'Mille Miglia'
last year at the age of fifty, wrote an article for the "Saturday Evening
Post" entitled "Stop Us Before We Kill Again." This, by a participant,
indicates the seriousness of the situation.

A final quality of car-racing is its appeal as a spectator sport. We
in America cannot get a true impression without witnessing a Grand
Prix race. The cars are painted different colours not according to their

«A TRINITY COL.L,EGE SCHOOL RECORD

make but according to the country they represent. When Moss' green
Vanwell edged past Fangio's bright red Maserati in the British Grand
Prix last summer there was a tremendous roar of excitement from the
crowd, which even drowned out the thundering exhaust of the two cars.
This is international motor-racing unknown to North America but one
of the most competitive and fascinating sports in the world.

HE EXISTS WITfflN US

We glide along the stream of youth with ease,

Finding only small rapids in our way,

Until at length we come to an ominous bay,

Which spreads out disclosing rolling seas.

Storm waves cause us to rise and fall, and tease

Us for a great, self-made, wanted being

Existing within ourselves; and then seeing

A chance to help, his better traits we seize.

Yes! There are hidden traits within us all

Which together form a different man

From the character appearing to the eye.

And when we're trapped near death against the wall,

It is then that we wish we could have run

That secret person's life. I wonder why?

SATELLITE

From the bounds of outer space came the irregular ping-pong of the
microwaves sent out by the satellite. People all across the nation sat
with their ears to their radios, listening to the meaningless bits of noise
and static that came over their sets. Newspaper boys howled in excited,
high-pitched phrases. "Getcha daily News, now. Read all about it. Russia
launches satellite". Little groups of people gathered on the street corners
to discuss the drastic event. Sombre gentlemen, who professed to know
all about this sort of thing, sat in their luxurious club-rooms nodding
gravely over this matter of world prominence. Huddled around a tele-
scope, a number of white-coated scientists peered into the boundless blue
searching vainly for this piece of mechanism, hardly larger than a beach-
ball that had plunged the world into a buzz of consternation. Over the
wires of the United Broadcasting Company an announcer was interview-
ing a learned Polish scientist on the subject.

"Dr. Vornicksty, do you think that this satellite is a hazard to world
peace?"

TRINITY COL(LBX3E SCHOOL RECORD 37

"I think," said the professor, "that the satellite is a great stepping
stone to the bounds of outer space. The Russians, with the information
secured from this missile, will be able to reach the moon several years
ahead of the other countries involved."

"And what effect will this have upon the rest of the world?" queried
the announcer.

"It will mean," he said in his deep gutteral voice, "that the Russians
will control the whole world from this position. As the world rotates,
they will be able to bomb any part without being in danger of a counter
attack. It is a very grave situation."

"Thank you, professor," said the man. "Ladies and gentlemen, you
have just heard the most recent theories on the subject from Dr. Vor-
nicksty. We will now return to our regular programme. Musical Moments."

In Washington, the President told a press conference that the United
States could have had a far superior satellite if the three services had
only co-operated together. "We have nothing to worry about," he said
nervously. The Russian satellite, although it weighed an impressive one
hundred and eighty-five pounds, could only transmit radio waves. Our
sphere weighing only fifteen pounds will transmit valuable information.
The question of the Russians' remarkably larger rocket was artfully
avoided by the President. The President closed the meeting on a satis-
factory note saying that several satellite committees had been set up
to find out where the delay had been.

Meanwhile, in a small proving ground in the middle of the Pacific,
a German scientist said that an American satellite could have been
launched two years before. However, the government had refused to offer
assistance because they termed it "an insignificant project to be developed
at a further date."

On the roof-top of the Commercial Life building in Boston a group
of junior astronomers gazed in the early morning light at the satellite.
Suddenly the tiny dot appeared to glow very bright and after a few
seconds mysteriously disappeared. The morning papers shouted in bold
headlines about the disaster which had overtaken the satellite. It had
apparently burned up when it hit the earth's atmosphere.

The whole nation from the President to the worker breathed a sigh

of relief.

A MOMENT OF GREATNESS

By 3.30 p.m. on Sunday, March 9, the Whitby Dunlops had been
crowned World Amateur Hockey Champions in Oslo, Norway — the Whitby
Dunlops, the "Cinderella" team of hockey. A few years ago this team
played out of Oshawa, Ontario, but due to two disastrous fires at the
rink, the team found new sponsors in Whitby. The "Dunnies,"

3g TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

as they are effectionately called by their fans, soon began to run away
with the lead in the OHA Senior *'B" league. In 1956, manager Wren
Blair got his team into the Senior "A" circuit. Other members of this
league laughed out loud at the prospect of this team playing against
them but by April 1957 the Dunlops had become Allan Cup champions.
After walloping the Kitchener-Waterloo Dutchmen they faced the highly
rated North Bay Trappers and became known as giant-killers as they
swept the series from the men from the north. They finally clinched the
trophy by entering their final playoff and defeating the Spokane Flyers
four games straight. With this victory the "Dunnies" earned themselves
the right to represent Canada in the World Hockey Championships this
year. But Whitby still had to convince a lot of people that they were
good enough to deserve this honour. In November last year, the Russian
national team came across the ocean to play a series of exhibition games
in Eastern Canada. Their first opposition was Whitby. The day before
the big game the sports scribes of Toronto watched the Russians practice
and the papers that night were full of predictions by "experts" who said
that Whitby wasn't fast enough or just wasn't good enough to defeat
this Russian team. The following night the "Dunnies" foiled these
"experts" as they overcame an early two goal deficit to wallop the Rus-
sians 7-2 before a sellout crowd of 14,327 fans in Maple Leaf Gardens.
Yet people still weren't convinced. They said the Russians were jittery,
that they weren't used to hot mdoor rinks or the soft ice and that it
would be a different story in Norway come March 9th. The critics
strengthened their cries as the Russians walloped most of the other
teams they played even though these teams weren't near Whitby's calibre.

And so it went. Wherever the "Dunnies" travelled, people said they
weren't good enough. The coach of the American team said Canada was
making a big mistake by not sending over the "K-W Dutchmen," the
team that lost the title for Canada in 1956 at Cortina, Italy.

Then the "Dunnies" embarked for Europe where they proceeded to
smother by fantastic scores every team they met in England and on
the continent. People began to think, "Maybe the Dunnies can do it after
all." The tournament itself started with Whitby defeating Poland 14-1;
Norway 12-0; Finland 24-0; Sweden 10-2; Czechoslovakia 6-0 and the
U.S.A. 12-1.

On the final day of the tournament it was a battle of the giants. All
Canada listened by their radios as the famous voice of Foster Hewitt
spread over the air waves. But by the end of the first period people were
worried. The "Dunnies" were letting them down. The Russians led 1-0
on a goal by the blonde Russian, Alexandrov, who made such a hit in
Canada. In the second period the Canadians came to life and Bob
Attersley tied the score. But it still remained 1-1 at the end of forty
minutes of hockey. In the third period Canada's Dunlops took the lead
2-1 on a goal by Connie Broden but this advantage was short lived as

TRINITY COL*LEGE SCHOOL RECORD 39

the Ruskies became fired up and tied the score almost immediately.
People thought they might be hearing the Russian national anthom for
tho first t^me when at 16:23 of the third period amidst the chant "Go,
Dunnie, Go", Bob Attersley put the Canucks in front to stay as he deflected
a shot by Jean Paul Lamirande into the Russian net. Twenty-five seconds
later Bus Gagnon pushed another puck behind Puckkov and the crowd
went wild. With the score reading 4-2 and only seconds to play, Ted
O'Connor took the puck from his own end, beat the Russian defence and
scored a split second after the buzzer sounded. The fans were over-
whelmed. An earsplitting cheer arose as the Canadian national anthem
Vv'as played and the Canadian ensign was raised on the victor's flag pole.
People of many tongues, most of whom only knew the two words "O
Canada" joined in to pay tribute to a great hockey club. After the teams
congratulated each other, the lights went out, and Captain Harry Sinden
stood atop the winner's pedestal circled in floodlights as he clutched the
winning trophy and shook hands with the Russian captain, Nikolai
Sologubov, below him on the pedestal reserved for the European cham-
pions. The "Dunnies" had won; the critics were silenced. Whitby Dun-
lops — truly great World Champions. Canada is proud of them.

BOOK REVIEW

Book The Greatest Story Ever Told

Author Fulton Oursler

I am not a particularly religious or pious person but I picked this
book up in the Library just to read a few paragraphs to get an idea of
the author's style — a hobby of mine you might say. I might say that
I didn't lay the book down until I had finished it.

"The Greatest Story Ever Told" is the story of the life of Jesus
Christ. It is the same story, exactly, that is written in the Bible, but
written here in the diction of today and with a good deal of added colour.
I'm sure that every Christian has a number of questions on his mind
concerning the teachings and philosophy of Christ or perhaps he is
sceptical about one or two of the parables, or perhaps he cannot under-
stand one of the many metaphorical or symbolic images that Jesus him-
self used. Oursler, in this book, answers all these questions, and in doing
Eo tells in the most romantic and heartening way the story of this great
man. Need I tell you the story? You have read it in the Bible. But to
the Bible story Oursler has added the hundreds and hundreds of side plots
and happenings that were not written by Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.
We read the romance of Mary and Joseph and how their marriage was
such an unsteady affair at one point. We meet all the Apostles of Jesus
before he does, and find what kind of men they were and how he so
quickly changed their lives. And there are countless other untold tales

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

which he interweaves into the plot along with all the other well known

Bible stories.

This story may not leave the reader any more of a religious person,
or a stronger believer, or a better Christian; but it does give a clearer
picture of the life of Jesus and the marvels of his works. It translates
complicated theology into our own tongue, and as I have said before, it

answers questions. It definitely is not a sermon.

SPORTS EDITORIAL

As this editorial is written, winter sports are beginning to fade with
the signs of the advancing warmer weather of spring. It has been a
long season with an even longer schedule of 81 sports events including
hockey games, basketball games, gym and skiing competitions, swimming
meets and squash matches. A change is going to be most heartily wel-
comed by all, including the editor.

Looking back at the hockey picture we find an extremely well balanced
First Team with an 11-7 won-lost record. The boys got off to a flying
start by winning the first six games, three of which made up the
Lawrenceville Tournament and another handsome trophy for the School's
collection. In the Little Big Four, Ridley produced one of their strongest
teams in many years which proved itself by taking top honours. The
Upper Canada team, although very young, put on an outstanding ex-
hibition of hockey and good sportsmanship to beat us in two pulse-pound-
ing even matches. The team as a whole, with Al Shier as captain and
Dick Smith as vice-captain, had a very enjoyable season with many high-

TRINITY CODLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 41

lights including the Princeton trip and several eventful trips to Toronto.
Then, of course, there was Mr. Lawson; coach, manager and even referee.
He certainly did an excellent job in his first year even though the team
missed out on the Little Big Four. "Just wait till next year!"

Turning to swimming, we see another powerful group which has
taken the L.B.F. for the second year in a row. Few are missing from
last year's team and the results of all meets have been outstanding. We
extend our heartiest congratulations to Mr. Hodgetts and his aquatic
crew and the best of luck in the Canadian Junior Championships in which
they will take part at Montreal during the Easter holidays. Congratula-
tions are also due Mr. Armstrong and the gym team who scored a notable
success in a recent Peterborough competition in which twelve Ontario
school teams competed.

The Senior and Junior Basketball teams under the able coaching of
Mr. Heard, had lots of spirit and drive but failed to come out on top in
the general picture. The Seniors, captained by Bob Hart with vice-captains
Don Walker and John Proctor, had several very close games winning
two more than half of the total number played. The Juniors, however,
did not make out quite as well mainly due to their lack of height and
experience.

Mr. Dempster, taking over the Squash Team from Mr. Landry, has
done a fine job and all who took up squash seriously seem to have benefited
by his coaching and spirit. We wish them luck in the coming L.B.F.
matches in Toronto.

On examining the season as a whole, one cannot forget the Little-
side and Middleside teams. Mr. Waddington and Mr. Yates have shown
a great deal of enthusiasm in their coaching and there seems little doubt
that they have produced more than a few potential stars. As usual, the
Rabbit League was a thorough success under this year's master-mind
Mr. Wing. Even skiing is becoming a competitive sport as there was a
competition within the School for the Bill Strong Memorial Trophy which
was won by Stanger, the new boy who seems to have been born on skis.

THE LAWRENCEVILLE HOCKEY TOURNAMENT

PRINCETON, NEW JERSEY, DECEMBER 19-21, 1957

For the second successive year the first hockey team travelled south
to "Dry Land" hoping to gain at least some, if not all, of the lost hockey
prestige suffered when we were defeated in the finals by a fast-skating
St. Paul's school in their first appearance at the tournament. Our team
had many advantages over its predecessor in that we profited from the
valuable experience of competing under American college rules which
frown on heavy checking and demand head gears. To the new boys on
the club the most startling aspect of the foreign game was the absence

of a centre ice red-line which allowed almost rink-length passes to be made
sometimes catching the defence flatfooted. The Americans refrained
from their "red-lining" tactics, however, and very few breakthroughs
occurred.

The team left the School on December 18 proceeding to Malton air-
port where an uneventful and luxurious two hour plane ride was waiting
to transport us to New York.

On arrival among the bright lights, the team checked into the Sey-
mour Hotel for the night's stay. As was to be expected, sightseeing and
movie-going played an important part in evening entertainment. One
must not get the feeling that this team was just along for the ride be-
cause each member was in his bed by 11.30, catching sleep before the
jaunt to Princeton next day.

Once again, the Lawrenceville authorities had done a marvellous job
of organization. Each team was entertained in one of Princeton's many
eating clubs on Prospect Street. The Campus Club was ready for us
again, still boasting the television set, coke machine, and hi-fi set to
keep our minds occupied between games.

On the top floor, the team slept in a huge dorm handily adjacent
to a billiard room which proved very popular.

TRINITY COL-LEGE SCHOOL RECORD 43

Meals were provided three times a day at the Princeton Varsity
field house just down Prospect Street. This year Trinity opened the series
against Choate about one hour after train arrival in the ivy town. It was
here that we learned the secret to our future success — endless forecheck-
ing, but we learned another thing even more important and this was
the fact that the Americans were no soft touch. Even though previous
experience had taught us not to underestimate their potential, I think
everyone felt that we could somehow dispose of this Choate team with-
out expending ourselves. We only realized how wrong we were after
two minutes of overtime in which we emerged victorious with a bitterly-
contested 4-3 win. To add to the lesson was the fact that it took a goal
with barely 15 seconds left to tie it up for us and send the game into
overtime.

That night, the teams attended the annual banquet at The Nassau
Tavern in downtown Princeton. The players mingled freely with one
another exchanging tournament gossip and in general simply "chewing
the fat." The end of the meal saw a cordial welcome extended to all teams
and brief speeches from the representative headmasters and coaches.
After the captains of the eight teams had been introduced, films of the
1957 Stanley Cup playoffs were shown and enjoyed by all.

On Friday, December 20, Trinity met Belmont Hill School in the
second game of the day. Belmont had previously disposed of our good
friends from St. Catharines in a tight game the day before. This game
proved to be the most unusual of the tournament being played in such
a dense fog it was impossible to see the opposing net from your own
blue line. The only way the goalie could tell if his team had scored
would be by the signal of the red light through the heavy mist. This
description may seem to be a trifle exaggerated but a teeming downpour
outside and a temperature of 63 together with an indoor temperature
of 55 produced the effect.

The substantial gathering was forced to move to the balcony and
the players tried their hand at dispensing with the fog by skating around
the rink waving their sticks.

The game itself was tight and not until the last three minutes did
two quick goals break a 2-2 deadlock and salt away the victory for T.C.S.
When the fog had lifted Trinity had beaten Belmont 4-2 and earned
the right, for the second successive year, to play in the grand finale,
this year against a powerful Kimball Union Squad, which Trinity out-
played and trounced 4-1.

The Maroon and Black returned to Canada following a one day visit
to New York, stacked with trophies and filled with School and national
pride.

T.C.S. vs. AlJiEKT t'OLLEGE
At Port Hopt% January 7. Won 14-0

On Saturday afternoon, January 7, T.C.S. played host to Albert
College first team. In the first period, Hodgetts ot T.C.S. scored the first
goal of the game, unassisted, at 7.45. Smith followed at 9.00 and Hyland
at 11.30 to score the three goals of the period for T.C.S. Shots made
during the period were 13 for Trinity and three for Albert.

In the second period Smith started the score rolling at 1.45. For
T.C.S. following Smith, Hodgetts scored at 3.05, Knight unassisted at
6.30, Barbour at 8.45, Cunningham at 9.30 and Hodgetts again at 14.00.
At the end of the second period, the score was T.C.S. 9, Albert 0.

The third period was a similar story with Scott of T.C.S. scoring a
goal within the first thirty seconds. For T.C.S., the scoring of this stanza
after Scott were Barbour at 4.00, Marett at 6.30, Knight 8.10 and Hod-
getts at 11.15. Hodgetts was the top scorer of the game with an impres-
sive total of four goals, one unassisted. The total number of shots taken
throughout the game was T.C.S. 43, Albert 20.

T.C.S. vs. SAHARA DESERT

January- 15, 1958. Lost 3-2

Play in the first period was fast, clean and scoreless. However, T.C.S.
nearly went ahead twice when the Desert goalie had to make important
saves off Shier and Barbour. Late in the second period the Trinity team
preserved the scoreless tie when Shier was removed from the ice after
hooking a Deserter. Barbour punctuated the start of the third period
by fooling the goalie with a sharp angle shot after tricky passing from
Smith and Marett. However, part way through the frame Dixon tied the
score and set the stage for the action in the last three minutes. At
the 17.10 mark. Smith scored unassisted for T.C.S. and put the School
in front for thirty-five short seconds after which Plante evened the score.
Trinity fought back with everything they had and less than a minute
later had Shier and Cunningham in the penalty box. After this the
visitors' power play took effect when Bank scored fifteen seconds later
to put the club ahead to stay.

T.C.S. vs. B.R.C.
January 32, 19.58. I.,ost S-1

In their first Little Big Four encounter the School was upset by a
surprisingly strong Ridley team. Ridley played an even game which
seemed to be stronger on the defense than offense.

Th game opened slowly but T.C.S. managed to hold their opponents
at bay. From the opening whistle to the final both goalies were called
to do their best and both stood up well to the multitude of shots. Despite
many exciting moments, the end of the first period saw both teams
unscored upon.

TRINITY COIXEGE SCHOOL RECORD

In the second frame both teams played the same brand of fast
hockey although the Maroon team seemed to dominate the play slightly.
Despite this slight edge, with five minutes remaining in the period Porssi,
scored on a screen shot from the blue line. With two minutes remain-
ing in the period, Ridley got two penalties. After a tense moment of
shooting and passing, Smith capitalized on Ridley's error by driving one
into the net assisted by Barbour.

In the final "20" B.R.C. displayed their strength with Harvey scoring
in the first few minutes. T.C.S. fought hard to recover the lost point
but despite their efforts Burns pushed in another to give the Black and
Orange a handsome lead. The remainder of the game was tense fast
hockey with both teams stalemating the other. In the final minutes T.C.S.
removed their goalie and pushed into Ridley's zone. Despite many thrills
and tense moments T.C.S. was unable to improve their standing, and the
game ended 3-1.

T.C.S. vs. DE LA SALLE

At Port Hope, January 29, 1958. Won 3-1

This game was one of the team's best efforts of the season and was
wide open all the way. The win was basically due to superb goal-tending
as Perrin kicked out 23 shots to De La Salle's 19.

T.C.S. opened the scoring on a pass play from Hodgetts to Hyland
at the three minute mark. However, De La Salle kept the game even
by retaliating one minute later. The hockey remained at a fast pace
throughout the balance of the period with neither side having an edge.
Three penalties were handed out; two to T.C.S. and one to the visitors.

The second "20" proved more exciting than the first as De La Salle
was constantly pressing in an effort to re-tie the game after Trinity
scored a second goal on an accurate shot from Hodgetts that caught
the lower right-hand corner of the net.

Both teams returned to the ice after the second rest eager to win.
Six minutes of play elapsed when Shier scored the confirming goal on
a pass from Knight. The game was more rugged than in either of the
first two periods and a total of six penalties were handed out, three to
each side. The checking was close and neither team was able to capitalize
on the penalties, so the score remained unchanged to the end. The Hod-
getts, Hyland, Knight line showed up well and the goal-tending for both
sides was exceptional.

T.C.S. vs. S.A.C.
At Aurora, February 1, 1958. Won 10-0
In the first game against S.A.C. at Aurora, T.C.S. Bigside trounced
the Saints 10-0 in a very fast hard-checking match. Both teams were
in top condition and there was a large crowd on hand to watch. For the

first five minutes of the game S.A.C. dominated the play with Stephen-
son, the T.C.S. goalie, making several outstanding saves. Finally, Barbour
looped a pass to Smith who slapped it in to give the School a one point
margin and a launching pad for what proved to be a devastating attack.

No sooner had the puck been dropped than Jim Hyland left both
S.A.C. defensemen behind and rifled in the second one from ten feet out
at 8.00. Two penalties followed in succession with the School receiving
both. However, S.A.C. failed to capitalize on a power play. Then at 16.20
Cunningham fired in a third goal after taking a beautiful pass from Jim
Hyland and the first period ended with Trinity safely out in front.

In the first four minutes of the second stanza three more goals were
chalked up by T.C.S. The first came from Hodgetts at 2.04 and the
second from Knight at 4.06. Both goals were neatly set up with passes
from Jim Hyland. Ken Scott scored the third, taking a pass from Hood
of S.A.C. The rest of the period remained scoreless but continued to be
dominated by the visiting team.

The third "20" was similar to the second. Both teams started out
fast with Smith again sinking one in the left hand corner on a very
smoothly calculated pass from Barbour. Near the end of the final period
Ken Scott was again assisted by S.A.C. to make the score S-0. Smith,
neatly set up by Marett, then completed his hat-trick with one minute
of play remaining. Finally, with ten seconds left, Jim Hyland executed
one of the neatest plays of the game, when he took the puck at centre
ice, skirted around the defense, the net, and flijjped it in the left hand
side for the tenth and final goal.

Such an overwhelming victory was the result of team unity and
superb spirit. In picking standout players of the game one could hardly
overlook the brilliant efforts turned in by both Jim Hyland and vice-
captain Dick Smith.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

T.C.S. vs. PETERBOROUGH
February 5, 1958. Lost 6-1

In a benefit game the Maroon and Black found themselves face to
face with a fast and experienced team. The game, which lasted only
two periods, for lack of time, was fast and hard played. The "Petes"
broke away in the first period and attained a substantial lead of four
goals. Despite this seemingly large barrier, Peter Barbour drove in one,
assisted by Marett, halfway through the period. The whole game was
fast, the checking was hard and despite the uneven score, the game was
close. This was the Maroon's toughest test and they stood up well.

T.C.S. vs. r.c.c.
At Toronto, February 8, 1958. Lost 6-4

In a game marked by extreme weather and very fast ice Trinity
went down to a 6-4 defeat in a hard fought match.

The first two periods saw an average game that was very closely
contested, but Trinity seemed to lack the ability to put the puck in the
net. Countless times the puck was kept inside the blue line, and passed
aroimd for the perfect play which never came. Upper Canada played
smart hockey, and consecutively, Conacher, Trent, Magee and Tovelle,
made good a count of four to their team's credit. However, Marett tallied
once for Trinity and Shier, exhibiting extreme determination, went the
length of the ice to score on a well placed shot.

The interlude in a warm dressing room seemed to give T.C.S. the
needed drive. The boys came back fast to play a much more exciting
brand of hockey. More than once the chances looked hopeful. However,
Hyland and Smith's goals for T.C.S. were countered by goals from Med-

land and Conacher leaving us right where we started. When the final
whistle sounded the School still trailed by two goals. In general, the
game was fast and featured some very close checking which resulted
in a number of penalties for both teams.

T.C.S. vs. U.T.S.
At Port Hope, February 12, 19.58. Won 6-2

In their first encounter with the U.T.S. squad, Bigside emerged
victorious by a 6-2 count.

U.T.S. opened the scoring midway through the first period when
Farr scored from Lingard. T.C.S. rallied and came back quickly with
Hyland scoring unassisted less than a minute later. Neither team was
able to score for the remainder of the period as both goal tenders were
extremely sharp.

In the second period T.C.S. opened the scoring with Hyland scoring
again from Hodgetts at the twelve minute mark. Half a minute later
Hyland completed his hat trick assisted by Hodgetts and Knight. Finally
to end a period in which U.T.S. failed to score, Marett knocked one in
from Barbour and Smith with a minute remaining, making the score
4-1 in favour of T.C.S.

In the third period U.T.S. came back to life with Ingram scoring
from Shurdee. Marett then scored again for T.C.S. after being set up
neatly by Smith. Hodgetts ended the scoring with a pass from Knight
at the seventeen minute mark making the score a decisive 6-2, giving
victory to T.C.S. The game as a whole was very fast and closely checked.
Pete Perrin stood out well in the T.C.S. nets allowing only two goals for
25 shots.

T.C.S. vs. DELTA KAPPA
At Port Hope, February 1.5. Lost 5-2

Against the Delta Kappa fraternity Trinity lost 5-2. The first period
proved to be very fast with Gadsoe of the D.K.E.'s slapping a shot in at
4.00 to set them out in front. Then at 10.40 Jim Hyland rifled one in
on a flip pass from Knight making the score 1-1. The remainder of the
stanza was uneventful, although both teams had several potential scoring
opportunities.

The second period was dominated by the fast and smooth plays of
the visitors. In the first five minutes, McWhinney scored twice for the
Dekes unassisted on two very clever feats of stick-handling. The second
period ended with Trinity failing to retaliate.

Hope for Trinity was renewed at 5.03 of the third period when
Mockridge scored on a screen shot from 20 feet out. However, Roberts
managed to hook one in behind Perrin at 7.20 to give the D.K.E.'s an
even more substantial lead. Just to make sure of the margin, they scored

KA TRINITY COIA.EX3E SCHOOL RECORD

again on a neatly set up play when McDerment caught the low right
corner. The rest of the game gave way to some pretty solid defensive
play by the D.K.E.'s who managed to throw back several desperate
rushes.

T.C.S. vs. U.C.C.
At U.C.C, February 22, 1958. Lost 3-0

In their return game with Upper Canada, Trinity again could not
down their high flying opponents and were handed their second straight

setback.

From the start, play was fast and punctuated by many rushes. How-
ever, although Trinity could get the puck well into their opponents' end,
they couldn't put the rubber past the netminder. Shortly after the half
way mark in the first period, Atkinson put U.C.C. ahead on a long low
shot from the blue line. Innis added an insurance marker three minutes
later when he beat Stephenson on a short high shot into the mesh. For
the remainder of the period play was hectic but neither side capitalized
and the score remained 2-0 at the end.

It was apparent in the second stanza that neither side could co-
ordinate, and Upper Canada was thrown off stride by a brilliant checking
display on the part of the Kennish, Scott, Molson line. Several standout
saves on the part of Frank Stephenson, when U.C.C. put on the pressure,
were responsible for keeping the U.C.C. team in check, and allowed Trinity
to get back on her feet.

During the final period, play settled down to a heavy checking style
but T.C.S. was unable to convert any of their tricky passing plays. The
puck, carried into the Upper Canada end, invariably wound up in front
of the net, but no one was able to put it past George Deratny. Again
the third line startled the visitors when they upset their passing pat-
terns and threatened their shutout. Shortly before the game ended,
Atkinson added the clincher when he capitalized on a pass back to the
blue line, giving U.C.C. the score they had earned throughout the game.

T.C.S. vs. S.A.C.
Febniary 26, 1958. Won 9-2

In the final Little Big Four game of the season, the First team
defeated St. Andrew's 9-2. Having won 10-0 in their first clash with
the Saints, the team was a bit too confident and could not seem to control
the puck until the 15 minute mark when Barbour scored from Marett.
The second goal of the period was scored a minute later when Hyland
beat the S.A.C. goalie after breaking away from the face-off. With two
minutes left to play in the period Mc Knight received a penalty for slash-
ing, but the vigorous back checking of the third line of Scott, Kennish

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD ' 51

and Molson with Mockridge and Cunninghamon defense held the S.A.C.
squad scoreless.

Three fast goals opened the second period: Shier scored at 1.50, Dack
scored S.A.C. 's first goal of the game at 2.30 and Knight added another
at 4.10. Three penalties, two to T.C.S. and one to the Saints indicates
the heavier checking play of this period. No goals were scored until
Hyland connected at 16.30 on another unassisted tally. Two minutes later
on a beautiful set up. Knight draw the goalie to one side and then passed
to Hyland who scored his third goal. In the last few seconds of the
period Smith increased Bigside's lead to 7-2 when he scored assisted by
Marett.

In the third period three goals were scored. Barbour accounted for
a second goal on a pass from Smith at 7.55, Hyland's fourth goal, un-
assisted, went in at 12.58. As in the second period Bigside carried the
play and held the puck in the S.A.C. end of the rink but at 18.50 Ferguson
beat Perrin on a screen shot from the blue line to end the scoring with
the result that Bigside won 9-2.

Outstanding for the victors were Smith, who continually organized
the attack, Hyland with his four goals and Perrin who kept the S.A.C.
tallies to a minimum.

T.C.S. vs. KAPPA ALPHA
At Port Hope, March 8, 1958. Won 8-3

In the final game of the season the team won a decisive victory over
a Kappa Alpha squad which included a number of former T.C.S. hockey
stars.

The first period was rather slow as neither team appeared to be able
to make any pass pattern click for goals. Smith and Hyland both broke
through the defense several times, only to roll the puck past the open
corners of the net.

However, in the second "20" the teams seemed to gain confidence,
playing a more wide open game of hockey. Smith opened the scoring at
10.05 after taking a pass from Mockridge just inside the opposition's
blue line and carrying it right into the goal-mouth where he managed
to fake the goalie out of position and push the puck into an empty net.
Five minutes later Hyland drove a long shot in from a sharp angle to
give the School a two goal margin at the end of the period.

In the final stanza the Kaps fought back desperately and it was with
little surprise that they scored the first goal on a shot off Lawson's stick.
The home team was quick to retaliate by knocking in three goals in four
minutes on shots from Molson, Marett, and Hyland. The clock now showed
six minutes remaining and a score of 5-1 in favour of the Maroon and
Black. Again the visitors struck back scoring two quick goals, one of
which came when they had a one man advantage, due to a T.C.S. penalty.
In this case the marksmen were Church and Summerville respectively,

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

assisted by Lawson and Hunter. That was the end of the Kaps, energy
and otherwise! The School once again went into high gear to cap another
three goals before the period ended. The first came from Barbour who
was set out in the clear on a rink-wide pass from Smith. The second
and third were scored by Knight and Molson during two scrambles in

front of the net.

The game ended with a final score of 8-3 in favour of T.C.S.

MIDDLESIDE HOCKEY 1958

This year's Middleside squad, under the guidance of Mr. Wadding-
ton, was not quite as strong as in previous years, losing five out of the
eight games scheduled. The team got off to a slow start only winning
one out of its first five games. However, as the season progressed the
boys began to feel more confident in their ability. Only one of the next
four games was lost.

Although the record was not too spectacular, all played well against
superior Lakefield and De La Salle teams, and in general the season was
a great success.

The 1958 Littleside hockey season under the able coaching of Mr.
Yates and the superb team spirit added by all, was a very successful one.

On looking back at the season in general there are three games
which stand out as not only extremely close, but also those in which we
played our best brand of hockey. Naturally these include the first game
against Lakefield and the 'home and away' series with S.A.C.

T.C.S. vs. ZETES
At Port Hope, January 15, 1958. tost 75-39

This game got away to a rather uneventful start, as both teams lost
the ball for "travelling" several times in the first few seconds. Mr. Heard
called his first time-out one and a half minutes later, resulting in a
faster and better game afterwards.

Throughout the match the pattern was very regular with the ball
falling systematically in possession of the alternate teams, following a
scoring attempt. Regrettably, our opponents' shots were placed with
deadly accuracy, while our own lacked this quality. For instance, in the
first quarter, Zetes'shot seven times and scored an equal number of baskets,
while Trinity shot 12 and scored four.

Despite the superior experience of the Zetes, our Seniors fought
extremely well, making up for our lack of accuracy by taking more
shots. Our guarding, owing to Mr. Heard's encouragement, as well as
our will to win, improved as the game progressed, and in the latter part
of the third quarter it was so good that it forced the Zetes to fire almost
a dozen wild shots on the basket. Our top scorers were Walker and
Proctor ii, with 12 and 11 points respectively.

T.C.S. vs. U.T.S.
At Toronto, January 29, 1958. Lost 57-42

Playing their first away game of the season, the Senior basketball
squad lost 57-42 to a superior U.T.S. team. The first half was close and
well played by both teams. Proctor led the scoring for Trinity with
shots from inside the key and Faulkner used his deadly set shot from
the corner on several occasions. Williams and Buell led the U.T.S. five
throughout the game and the score was 33-32 in their favour at the
end of an exciting second quarter, the highlight of the game. The last
half lagged for Trinity as U.T.S. forged ahead to take a commanding
lead sparked by Williams who either scored or set up most of the Blue
and White baskets. The number of fouls mounted and one U.T.S. player
and two Trinity men were fouled out in the final minutes of the game.
So ended a fast, closely checked game with U.T.S., the victors by a

Proctor, 23; Faulkner, 13; Walker, 3; De Hoogh, 3.

T.C.S. vs. S.A.C.
At Port Hope, February 1, lO.'JS. Lost 48-45

On February 1, S.A.C. came to T.C.S. to capture a close and exciting
game.

Proctor i opened the scoring for T.C.S., but although the Trinity
squad began strongly, S.A.C. came back to take the quarter with a
score of 16-6. The second quarter was somewhat slower than the first
with both teams holding their own. However, the Saints proved slightly
more efficient in scoring and wound up on top with a half time score
of 28-18.

Saint Andrew's quickly opened the second half. This quarter was
much the same as the second and while T.C.S. scored a few times, S.A.C.
kept their edge with a score of 40-31. Then came the last quarter. Both
teams exerted heavy pressure, especially Trinity, who pressed up to the
last seconds but were unable to turn the tide as S.A.C. triumphed 4S-4.5.
The leading scorer for the School was Proctor with 27 points.

T.C.S.— Proctor 27, DeHoogh 8, Hart 6, Shaw 4, Seaborn, Turnbull,

On Wednesday, February 5, T.C.S. travelled to U.C.C. to meet a
very powerful Upper Canada squad.

U.C.C. openfed the game quickly and soon put the pressure on, out-
scoring T.C.S. 29-11. The second quarter was similar to the first with
U.C.C. again on top with a half time score of 49-21.

The Blue and White again gave the Trinity squad very stiff opposi-
tion and increased their lead to 31 points. The last quarter saw no relief
in sight as U.C.C. kept the ball rolling into the basket, and took the
game easily with a 92-44 victory. Proctor i was the leading Trinity
marksman with Omand taking top honours for U.C.C.

T.C.S. started off at a fast pace to gain a slight margin. Port Hope
rallied soon after, but Trinity was ahead at the end of the first quarter
by a score of 13-8. The second quarter went to Port Hope. Although
T.C.S. opened, P.H.H.S. came from behind and almost took the half with
T.C.S. leading by only one point.

The third quarter showed a stronger T.C.S. team as they opened
and increased their lead to 43-29. The last quarter was even, both teams
scoring and the game ended at 57-40 in favour of T.C.S. The leading

On Friday, February 14, T.C.S. senior basketball played Lawrence
Park Collegiate Institute. Both teams appeared quite evenly matched
and from the beginning, it was obvious that a real struggle was in prospect.
By the scores of 11-11 at the end of the first quarter and 13-13 at the
end of the second, the equality of the two teams became apparent. In

53 TRINITY COLiEGE SCHOOL REXX)RD

the third quarter, however, L.P.C.I. edged away with the score of 20-18,
a small lead in basketball. The last quarter provided what was perhaps
the most exciting ending that many people have seen. The two almost
equal teams played to a spectacular finish where in the last few minutes
L.P.C.I. put on a burst to end the game with the score 34-29.

T.C.S. vs. U.T.S.

On February 19, T.C.S. played host to U.T.S. and the resulting close
return game was a 62-56 victory for U.T.S.

U.T.S. opened the scoring on a foul and an even quarter followed,
ending in a 10-10 tie. U.T.S. scored more constantly in the second quarter
than did the Trinity team and managed to lead at the half with a margin
of nine points. The third quarter was much like the second except that
T.C.S. increased their score to diminish the lead. However, U.T.S. still
led 44-38 at the pause. The last "15" see-sawed back and forth and finally
U.T.S. took the game 62-56. Trinity's leading scorer was Proctor i with
19 while the U.T.S. marksman was Mac King with 12 points.

On Saturday, February 22, the Dekes came to Port Hope to win a
very exciting and close game against the Senior team.

The opposition opened the game very quickly and a fairly fast
quarter followed which ended with a quarter score of 10-8 in the Deke's
favour. The second "15" was similar to the first except that T.C.S. had
the upper hand as they took the half by a 22-17 score.

Trinity opened the second half and hit for several baskets to lead
at the three-quarter mark with a score of 34-27. Back came the D.K.E.'s
with a strong attack and the outcome of the game rested on a foul shot
by T.C.S. in the last ten seconds. Unfortunately the free shot was missed
and the Dekes won the game with a one point margin of 42-41. Leading
scorer for T.C.S. was Proctor with 18 points. The visitors' leading marks-
man was Paterson with 13 points.

T.C.S.— Proctor 18, Falkner 12, Walker 7, De Hoogh 4, Hart, Shaw,
Seaborn.

T.C.8. vs. COBOURG
At Port Hope, February 23. Won 63-25
On Monday, February 23, Cobourg visited the School only to be over-
powered by a much more experienced Trinity squad.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

The first quarter was fast and exciting with the Maroon and Black
coming out on top with a shallow three point lead. However, in the
second "15" the visitors began to drag and the School increased their
lead by capitalizing on several fouls.

At the beginning of the second half Cobourg found themselves 15
points behind a team which was still in high gear. Consequently, the
third quarter ended with T.C.S. holding a commanding lead of 32 points.
The last stanza showed little change in fortune and the game was quite
easily won with a 63-25 point score.

T.C.S. vs. u.c.c.
At Port Hope, February 26, 19.58. Lost 50-46

Playing a return game with U.C.C, a much more experienced T.C.S.
squad gave the opposition a better fight than in the previous game.

Upper Canada set out at a fast pace and a close quarter followed
ending with a two point margin in their favour. However, in the second
stanza the Maroon and Black took a slight lead of two points and managed
to hold it until the half-way mark.

The third quarter was again very close with U.C.C. regaining their
lead and going into several clever defensive patterns. The final "15" that
followed was very exciting and showed that the game could have broken
in either direction. Finally, the Blue and White triumphed again, taking
the game with a 50-46 point score.

T.C.S.— Proctor 20, Falkner 13, De Hoogh 6, Walker 5, Hart 2, Shaw,
Seaborn.

U.C.C— Ralph 16, Ormand 16, Mac Rae 10, Kerment 4, Rennie 2,
Russel 2, Saunders, Kerr.

T.C.S. vs. PORT HOPE
At T.C.S., March .5, 19.58. Won 82-29

In a return game with Port Hope High School the Trinity squad
was able to swamp the weaker Port Hope team.

T.C.S. opened the game quickly and took command to make the
first quarter score 18-1. The second stanza was somewhat slower but
nevertheless, T.C.S. was able to increase their score to 33 points. The
third was very like the second and Trinity's score was boosted to 64-10.
Again, the home team put the pressure on and took the game easily,
82-29. The leading scorer for T.C.S. was Falkner with 22 and for P.H.H.S.
it was Marston with 11.

T.C.S.— Falkner 22, Hart 18, Proctor i 16, Walker 12, De Hoogh 9,
Seaborn 4, Shaw 1.

At Aurora, March 8. Lost 67-42

For their last game of the season, the Seniors travelled to Aurora
where they met a stronger S.A.C. team than in the previous game.

S.A.C. opened the game and a fast quarter followed with the Saints
leading 16-12. In the second quarter, T.C.S. came back and won the
half 27-26.

However, in the third quarter, S.A.C. put on a sustained drive to
take a commanding lead of 10 points. S.A.C. kept the pressure on in
the last "15" and easily took the game 67-42. The leading scorers were:'
for T.C.S., Falkner with 21; for S.A.C, Manning with 23.

T.C.S.— Falkner 21, Proctor i 12, De Hoogh 6, Walker 2, Shaw 1, Hart,

JUNIOR BASKETBALL

This year the junior basketball team was very inexperienced and
failed to win a single game throughout the season. Out of a squad of
twenty-five, eight were chosen to represent the School: P. B. Glass, A.
Hyndman, M. R. Jackson, S. M. Jorgenson, J. J. Kime (co-capt.), R. M.
Moore, C. D. Proctor (vice-capt.), W. Whitelaw (co-capt.).

Our main disadvantage was height, the tallest being 5 feet 11 inches
and the shortest, 5 feet 3 inches. In the ten games played and as many
practices as possible, the team learnt more than Mr. Heard, our coach,
probably thought possible, and by the end of the season, although our
record was not impressive, everybody felt pleased with the ten weeks of
basketball that had ended. Besides everything we learnt about basket-
ball, we also learned to be good losers.

THE LITTLE BIG FOUR SWIM MEET

At Toronto, March 15. Won 54-47

On Saturday, March 15, the First Team, captained by Tony Lash,
again emerged as champions for the second year in succession. The
match started out with T.C.S. taking a fairly substantial margin in points
and keeping it that way. Out of the nine events, T.C.S. came up with
four firsts, B.R.C. three, U.C.C. two, S.A.C. zero.

A gallery full to overflowing saw Bill Warner of T.C.S. win the 100
yard freestyle in a cool 55.8 seconds, breaking his previous year's record
of 56.5. Glen Davis of Trinity swam the 50 yards backstroke in what
seemed an effortless and beautifully co-ordinated feat of 29.4 seconds,
beating the old record of 30.2 set by T. Butterfield of T.C.S. in 1951.
Notable mention should be given to Bill Warner who swam a furiously
fast race in the 200 yeard freestyle and missed the record by two-tenths
of a second. Maybe next year, Bill.

This victory means that the team will travel to Montreal on March
29 to partake in the Annual Canadian Scholastic Championships. We
wish them all the best of luck.

OTHER BIGSIDE SWIMMING MEETS

For the second year the Seniors took on the University of Toronto
intermediates and again came up on top with a score of 38-32. Warner,
Davis and Lash took their perennial first places in the 200 yard freestyle,
50 yards backstroke and 50 yards butterfly, respectively.

The team also took on two new teams in the schedule: Etobicoke
and the Hart House All-Stars. By Etobicoke the team was trounced, to
say the least. But watching people like Ken Williams, Ron Walbank and
Kirk Plunki swim was not only an exciting experience but one that be-
came invaluable in future meets. The All-Star meet was perhaps the
closest one we swam. The outcome was still undecided when the 200 yards
free style relay was announced. In fact it was neck and neck until Bill
Warner and Larry Freeman dove in together on the last lap. They did
synchronized tumble turns at the far end and stroke for stroke they
steamed for the end. T.C.S. won that meet by the length of Warner's
finger and no more. The final score was 33-31.

JUNIOR AND BANTAM SWIMMING MEETS

Swimming has become such a popular sport at T.C.S. that it has
again become necessary to divide the participants into three groups.
Although the Juniors and Bantam teams were not as successful as the
Seniors, they did manage to pull ahead in two out of their four meets.
Mr. Hodgetts is watching these teams with an eye on the senior teams
of years to come. There are going to be some first rate swimmers com-
ing up from these teams in the very near future.

We have also added another coach to the swimming staff as Mr.
Kirkpatrick, who was himself on the team in 1946, has taken control
of the Bantams and left Mr. Massey with the Juniors. We congratulate
them both for their success and wish their teams the best of luck in
future years.

A promising team made up of St. C. Balfour, P. M. Davoud (captain),
J. Garland, I. M. McAvity, J. L. G. Richards and M. A. Stanger, showed
up well against more experienced squads from Appleby and U.C.C. The
team reached its peak by subduing an enthusiastic team from Hillfield

A lot of credit is due to the senior boys for devoting their time and
interest to the encouragement of squash at the junior level.

BOULDEN HOUSE RECX)RD

It seems a long time since we wrote our last notes and there will
therefore be some items which took place before Christmas but after the
last number went to Press.

The Intra-Mural Soccer League was particularly successful this year
and the brand of soccer played was much higher than usual. Congratula-
tions to the Hornets (Captain Magee) who won the League by two points
in a close finish.

Once again all the boys and members of the Staff who took part
in our Christmas Pantomime are to be congratulated on the very good
show they put on.

Our sincere thanks to Mrs. Gaius Thompson. Mrs. Duncan Derry,
and other members of the T.C.S. Ladies' Guild who responded so nobly
to our appeal for costumes to dress the ladies of our cast. I don't know
what we would have done without them.

Many congratulations to Michael Seagram on his design for the
cover of the Record.

Congratulations also go to the Hockey Team on an unbeaten season.
We have not seen any better team at Boulden House for many years.

It was most disappointing that an outbreak of mumps at U.C.C.
forced the cancellation of the evening of one act plays which we have
all come to look forward to so much.

CHRISTMAS PANTOMIME

On Tuesday evening, December 17, Boulden House presented their
Christmas Pantomime "Cinderama" — a modern version of the Cinderella
legend written and directed by Mr. J. D. Burns.

In this adaptation Cinderella turns out to be a wealthy oil-well heiress
whose Uncle Tex — a Texas senator, no less — rescues her from the clutches
of Three Ugly Sisters. She falls in love with Prince Dimitri of Bonaco,
an impoverished nobleman — inspires a Scottish pawnbroker to return the
crown jewels free! — and drives off in her pumpkin coach to live happily
ever after.

Many characters — most of them highly coincidental to the old story —
throng the stage. Mac Campbell, the pawnbroker ; King Boris and Queen
Brunnehilde of Bonaco; Bule Yrunner, Sister Anastasia's escort — and
Uncle Tex's frontier family complete with horses — Cisco, Daniel, Davy
and Jim.

The back drop was designed and painted by Mrs. T. D. McGaw and
the Art Class. Musical direction was handled by Mr. A. J. R. Dennys.
Costumes were designed and made by Mr. C. Moore. The coach, horses
and properties were constructed by Wood Work classes in Boulden House,
supervised by Mr. J. D. Burns and E. W. Colby.

BOULDEN HOUSE CAMERA CLUB

February 23, 1958, marked the beginning of a new phase in the
Boulden House Hobby program. On that afternoon the Boulden House
Camera Club was formed. Creation of this Club was made possible by
the generous donation to the School of a superbly equipped dark room
through the courtesy of Mr. L. H. Booth. Our sincere thanks to Mr.
Booth for this gift.

The Club is now well under way with a membership of twenty boys.
At the first meeting, a Club Committee of three boys^ — -S. Biggs, M. Evans
and D. Rubbra — was elected to supervise activities. Mr. J. D. Burns is
Staff Administrator and Mr. A. J. R. Dennys, the School photographer,
is technical adviser.

Instruction is being given in developing, printing and enlarging and
it is hoped that some study of composition may be made and that the
various aspects of camera technique may be studied.

Field trips will be arranged for picture taking and a photographic
competition is planned for the Spring Term.

THE SHOT GUN

The modern shotgun is a carry-over from the old smooth-bore musket.
Firing many small shot rather than a single large one, it is used against
moving game like birds and rabbits. The earliest guns dated back to 1537.
The earliest efficient modern cartridge-case was the pin-fire patented
by Houiller, a Paris gunsmith in 1847. About 1866 the rebounding lock
was introduced and improved in 1869.

The game gun may be any bore from thirty-two to ten gauge. The
usual standard bore is twelve gauge, unless it is for a boy when it is
twenty gauge. The usual weight of the twelve bore, double-barrelled
game gun is from six to seven pounds with barrels thirty-inches long.

TRINITY CObL-EGE SCHOOL RECORD 77

Steel barrels drilled from the solid block were originally produced
by Whitworth. The standard charge for the twelve bore is forty-two grains
of smokeless powder and 1 - lis ounces of shot. The ordinary game gun
should have a killing circle of three inches at thirty yards with the first
barrel and at forty yards with the second barrel.

In 1875, Pape of Newcastle was awarded a prize for the invention
of choke-boring. Choke-boring is the narrowing of the diameter near the
muzzle. English, and particularly London-made guns stand pre-eminent
all over the world.

THE LAKE

Have you ever watched a lake for a whole day? I did once and I
found it very interesting and picturesque.

I started in the morning just as the sun was coming up behind me.
It changed the dark mysterious waters into a light blue mass of beauty.
Later on, many people came down to swim in the inviting waters or just
to lie in the sun. About noon the waves grew bigger, the sky grew darker,
and the waters turned an ugly shade of brown. It was then I realized
how quickly the pretty light-blue lake could change into a churning,
writhing, roaring mass of dirty water. It was not until sunset that the
waters calmed. Then the lake was a picture of beauty.

— A. R. Moore, Form IIB

OOAL MINING

Coal is found in seams varying from less than an inch to as much
as thirty feet thick. The seams that are worked are from eighteen inches
to eight feet thick. If they are located close to the surface, mechanical
shovels remove the soil and dig the coal up. Sometimes a shaft has to
be sunk hundreds of yards to reach a seam.

Today a coal cutter is used to make a hole in the seam, in which
explosives are put to knock down the coal. The coal is then loaded on
to a conveyor belt which carries it to the main trackway where it is put
into little trucks. These trucks are called "tubs" or "trams" and carry
ten to fifteen cwt. The tubs are pulled to the main shaft by steel ropes
and taken to the surface in cages. Hauling by pit ponies is very common
and a few mines have diesel locomotives to haul their coal.

Ventilation is a major problem in coal mining today. At least one
fan has to be working all the time to send a constant supply of fresh
air to underground workers. As much as five tons of air must be pumped
down to every one ton of coal that comes up. Poisonous gases are found
in all the seams and if they get a chance to circulate, may cause an
explosion or make the air unfit for breathing.

TRINITY COLJLEGE SCHOOL RECORD
BEAVER DAM

Among the towering snow-capped Rockies, a stream wound its scenic
course through groves of poplar trees and on this stream was one of
Nature's most ingenious constructions — a beaver dam. It was built at
a narrowing of the river and spread in a slight but graceful arc from
bank to bank. The dam was constructed of peeled poplar, birch and aspen
branches together with a mixture of mud, and so cleverly built that all
but a small trickle of water was held back.

Above the dam was created a large, placid pond dominated occasional-
ly by a huge pine. In two places the beavers had built their teepee-shaped
dwellings, rising seven feet out of the water. The calm surface was broken
by a sleek beaver sending ever-spreading ripples as he towed an aspen
log to his abode.

The banks were grassy with an occasional slab of granite poking
through the emerald green, dotted everywhere with tree stumps — some
old and withered, others just recently cut. Here and there a beaver
canal would lead off among the stately pines and poplar thickets.

As the sun set between the jagged peaks, the golden ripples gently
brushed against one of Nature's greatest creations — a beaver dam.

SNOW

When you put a couple of snowflakes under a microscope, they are
both different. No two snowflakes are alike.

Granular snow is formed when crystals collect and freeze. Little
drops of water form from clouds or themselves.

The commonest and most beautiful types of snow crystals are broad
and flat. The flakes are formed from the highest clouds. Some are often
as large as one-half inch long. Some crystals are six-sided, but most of
them are like four-sided plates.

They form beautiful branching stars. Many people make a hobby
of drawing and photographing these crystals.

SNOWFLAKES

The cold winds howl

And from the skies

Descending slowly

They fall

Softly

To the ground.

Covering

Steadily, surely,

The grey damp ground

With a crisp, white blanket.

THE WATCHER

"The Watcher" was an old man who lived in a deserted part of the
West in his old log cabin. He was named the "Watcher" because he
hardly did anything but watch the wild life of the forest.

Every morning he would leave his cabin and go to a spot in the
woods to watch the birds and animals. What puzzled the Indians was
that, while they did nothing but hunt the birds and animals, this man
absolutely refused to hurt them in any way.

One morning, however, an Indian scout found that the Watcher was

not in the woods as usual. After an investigation he found him dead in

his sleep. The Indians were sorry for him because they missed his jovial

company when he came to the village for supplies or a visit. They never

mention his name but they will always remember the one who was friend

to all living things.

HOCKEY

Co-Captains of Hockey C. J. Humble, F. W. Naylor

Three old colours and a strong group of new boys combined to produce
an undefeated hockey team. The games were always in doubt until the
last half and on only one occasion were we leading at the end of the
first period. However, hard skating and accurate shooting always turned
the tide strongly in our favour before the final whistle. Unfortunately,
the match with de La Salle was cancelled resulting in a long gap before
the Ridley game. Despite this hiatus the team maintained their form
and concluded the season successfully.
The game were as follows:

SNIPE HOCKEY LEAGUE

This League, which is made up of all the boys who are not on the
Hockey Squad, once more enjoyed a very successful season and there
was amazing improvement among some of the boys just starting out.
There were two competitions, the first one lasting for about a month
and enabling the Committee to choose players as evenly as possible for
the "Spring Cup" for which there is a trophy.

The competition in both leagues was fierce and close.

OLD BOYS' NOTES

1956

Rusty Robb ('55-'56) is with the United States Marines, with one
more year's service to go. He was expecting to be on tactical manoeuvres
in the Mediterranean until this spring. Rusty was recommended for
Officers' School on the results obtained on his General Classification
Test Battery, and this would mean entry to the Naval Academy at Anna-
polis. At the time of writing Rusty was doubtful that he would accept
this as it would entail eight years of training.

Mike Burns ('51-'56) is keeping his work in the 70's at Cornell and
played some hockey last winter.

Jerry Spivak ('52-'56', at Princeton University, is a "Tiger" and
member of the Freshman Squash Team.

Nicholas Steinmetz ('54-'56) was awarded the George J. McManus
Memorial Scholarship at McGill. This is open to men and women students
in any year who have high academic records. Nick has a very full schedule
as he is taking advanced Organic Chemistry, Geomorphology, Zoology,
English and Russian, is trying for the Squash Team as well as writing
for the McGill Daily. He is on the freshman Reception Committee, K. A.
House Manager, and, with others, is working to get a Chapter of Alpha
Epsilon Delta at McGill.

1957

Rusty Dunbar ('53-'57) was on the Intramural Football Champion-
ship Team for Trinity College which won the Mulock Cup for the second
time in twenty-five years.

The following left T.C.S. in 1957 and are now attending McGill
University: Bill Porritt, Charles Colby, Charles Chaffey, Ross Adair,
Mike Meighen, Derek Drummond and Peter Budge.

THE VEN. ARCHDEACON F. J. SAWERS, M.A., D.D.

The death of Archdeacon Sawers on February 17th in Toronto re-
moves from our midst one who was admired and revered by all who
knew him. Fred Sawers spread happiness wherever he went and his gay
spirit was the open door to a deep and unwavering faith. One just could
not be doubting or cast down in his presence; truly he lifted up nearly
every man who knew him.

He was a master at T.C.S. from 1901 until 1904 and boys who were
at T.C.S. then often spoke of his strong influence, his teaching ability
and the respect and affection which the School felt for him.

He often visited the School and preached in Chapel and his sermons
were models of clearness, strong advice and illustrated with apt quotations.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

In the Church at large, he held many important posts and made
most valuable contributions to its work.

He will be sadly missed and ever remembered.

(Word has just come that Mrs. F. J. Sawers died shortly after her
husband).

EDITORIAL

Late on Speech Day night the School lies solemnly atop the fog
bound Port Hope hill. The solitude is fractured only by the periodic stac-
cato pounding of a lonesome typewriter. Patiently she awaits a long
summer sleep as only a few remain to write examinations. The others
have left in various directions to their separate homes. It is, however,
to the remaining that I wish to address this editorial.

Speech Day was a sad but wonderful day for most of us — a day
when we looked back not only at the past year, but on every happy day
of our life at T.C.S. On this day only, every memory seemed to return
to us. Determined and glorious efforts on the playing fields, long hours
of attendance in classrooms, happy times in the surrounding countryside,
and even now the chapel, are all reflected in our minds. Also, of course,
we look ahead to our university life and our careers. To some these re-
main undecided; but not entirely, for our schooling has brought out our
talents and capabilities and developed them. From these we will undoubt-
edly choose one and apply it in its fullest capacity to form our career.

Throughout the latter part of this term we feigned a satirical sadness
toward leaving, and perhaps improvised a new verse in one of the leaving

2 TRINITY COUvEGE SCHOOL RECORD

songs. However, as we sang and listened to these songs during the con-
cert and the hymns in Chapel on Speech Day morning, we looked more
closely at such frequent phrases as "Go Forth with God", "Vision is
Stronger than Sight", and "The School on the Hill is Watching," and
their deep and important meaning became a reality to us. I saw many
Old Boys who left the School a good number of years ago singing these
hymns and songs from memory. They cannot forget them just as they
cannot forget T.C.S.

We all have more than two-thirds of our lives ahead of us, and I am
in no position to tell you or even advise you what to do with them. I
can only make suggestions — my first one being to read Sir William
Osier's "A Way of Life." It is a speech which he made to a group of
students at Yale University, and in it he presents a basic philosophy of
life which is clear, re'asonable and easily understood. I will not sum-
marize it, I will only hope that you take half an hour off to read it.
Another suggestion I have to make is that you remember our School
motto, "Beati Mundo Corde", which you all know means "Blessed Are the
Pure in Heart". Difficult as it may be, we must endeavour to retain our
faith and our religion.

Yesterday in his address to the School, the Headmaster spoke of the
concern shared by the educators, parents and the Church toward the moral
and ethical degeneration of youth throughout the world. As public com-
munications are developed and censorship becomes more lenient, this
situation is bound to become worse. At the present time we are the ones
concerned. We will be the leaders, and it will be cur duty to destroy this
germ so harmful to humanity, not only within our own immediate group,
but throughout our nation. We now know that this must be achieved,
and that the only way we can do our part is to become leaders. I am not
suggesting that you join the Church and preach the good word, only that
you become influential enough to set an example that will be heeded.

As we leave T.C.S. there is bound to be a great rise in our freedom. We
are suddenly going to run face to face with a barrage of temptations. Sir
William Osier very illustratively warns we that we will meet Lady Nico-
tine, Old Bacchus and Aphrodite. Tobacco dulls the mind and alcohol ruins
it. These maxims are true, of course, only if we indulge in excess. But
the temptation is awaiting and they are both highly habit-forming vices ;
so if you cannot stay completely away from them, indulge discreetly and
in moderation. Our Aphrodite complex is mandatory or mankind would
not be. But here again we must resist it better than to the best of our
ability, for we know full well that by allowing emotion rather than reason
to lead us one step off the straight and narrow path, we store up for our-
selves a great deal of trouble and the eventual ruination of happiness.

In closing I should like to wish th- class of 1958 all the best of good
luck, happiness and prosperity. We are all going various, separate and

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 3

distant ways and many wonderful friendships are virtually coming to an
end. There will be reunions, of course. But keep in touch with the School
so that we can keep in touch with you. The School wishes you well and
reminds you that she is watching from her hill, as you climb yours.

Finally I wish to thank every member of the staff of this year's
Record, and particularly the Editors, who have spent many hours of their
valuable time in assisting me in every conceivable way. An Editor-in-Chief
could not ask for a better staff. They were always prepared to take on
any job in meeting three very tight deadlines. My deepest thanks go also
to Mr. Humble, staff adviser, and Mr. Bishop and Mr. Waddington for
their tremendous assistance to the staff. I thank you all once more, and
wish the best of luck to next year's Editor-in-Chief and his staff.

M.I.G.C.D.

PRESENTATION TO DR. AND MRS. KETCHUM

The entire Staff gathered in the beautiful garden of Mr. and Mrs.
Peter Lewis on Speech Day evening, June 11th, to honour Dr. and Mrs.
Ketchum on the completion of their twenty-five years' service to the
School. Mr. Lewis gave a brief address in his own inimitable, brilliant
style and stressed the many benefits the Headmaster had brought to
members of the Staff in his twenty-five years, listing housing, increased
salaries, pension plan, etc. "But chiefly he has brought to us a personal
friendship ; a genuine interest in the Staff and members of their families,
and a warm hospitality at the Lodge." Mr. Lewis commented that twenty-
five years of service at T.C.S. can be very exhausting, and being able to
carry on so well under such trying circumstances must bear tribute to
the wonderful help and care given by Mrs. Ketchum. He was sure that
Mrs. Ketchum has become much beloved by all members of the Staff.

Following a toast to the Head and Mrs. Ketchum, a presentation was
made of a canoe for their use at their cottage in Georgian Bay. Another
gift was a paddle with the signatures of all Staff members on the blade,
surrounding a bronze plate with the following inscription: "To Philip
and Ottilie Ketchum, in appreciation of their great goodwill and unfailing
kindness to the Staff of Trinity College School, during the past twenty-
five years. June 11, 1958."

A TRreUTE TO THE HEADMASTER

In paying tribute to our Headmaster, it does not seem necessary
to dwell on his "curricula vitae", which appears elsewhere, but rather
to talk about his impact on T.C.S. which he has helped build into one of
the great institutions in Canada.

i^^/gr^

DR AND MRS. KETCHUM AT THE CELEBRATION OF DR KETCHUM'S
^^- ^"^^ 25th ANNIVERSARY AS HEADMASTER AT T.aS.^^ ^^ ^ ^^^^^^^

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 5

Philip Ketchum came to the School in the very depths of the de-
pression, at a time when everything of value seemed to be collapsing, and
Canadians, like the citizens of other countries, had lost confidence in
themselves and their future. He brought to his new responsibilities youth,
energy, health, enthusiasm, a good education and, above all, an upbringing
received from loving parents who had taught him the meaning in life of
"service to others".

When he arrived, the School was bowed down with debt and, after
sixty odd years of existence, to say the least, had a very uncertain future.
In short order, loyal friends and Old Boys rallied to support him and
helped to solve the School's enormous financial problems. Since that time
T.C.S. has never looked back. He set about strengthening his teaching
staff, gaining the support of the School's Old Boys and friends, who
have helped him along the road to achieve his dreams for T.C.S.

During the twenty-five years of his Headmastership the enrolment
has increased two and a half times. Masters' salaries have been more
than doubled, the Beautiful Memorial Chapel has been built, Bickle House,
the Rink, the Tuck, three Masters' houses, the new Library have been
added, the kitchen and heating plant have been completely re-equipped.

In addition, an endowment fund has been created from which schol-
arships and bursaries are given to boys of promise and some contribution
is made to masters' pensions and salaries.

Throughout his triumphant progress, although he might be the last
to admit it has been triumphant, he has been assisted by a loving and
charming wife, Ottilie, in her own right a personage. With charm and
tact, she has carried out her full share of responsibilities in rounding out
a real team, which, over the years has made the boys' stay at School a
happy and rewarding one. Not only has she brought up an attractive
family of three boys and three girls, but she has also been mother and
friend to hundreds and hundreds of boys who have gone through T.C.S.

What is the secret of Philip Ketchum's success as Headmaster?
What particular quality has he brought to the task of running one of
Canada's greatest boys' schools? If the writer can presume to have the
answer here, perhaps it is that Philip Ketchum is a great human being
with a Christian devotion to helping people. By example and precept,
he has set a standard of living for his colleagues, staff and boys. Some-
thing of his spirit touches all who come in contact with him. We are
all, I think, a little better for having known him.

Under his leadership and loving guidance it is not hard to predict the
continued growth and progress of a great School; to see hundreds of
young men leaving its hallowed walls to play their full parts in developing
this Canada of ours as one of the great countries of the world.

To you, Philip and Ottilie, go our grateful thanks for all you have
done for our School, for all you have done for our children. May God
reward you both, as you so justly deserve. — c. f. w. b.

During Trinity Term addresses in Chapel were provided by nine in-
vited guests. The Right Reverend Robert L. Seaborn visited us on May 11,
a few days before proceeding to his new post as Assistant Bishop of New-
foundland. Colonel, the Reverend John W. Forth, Director of Chaplain
Services, came from Ottawa for our annual Memorial Service on Trinity
Sunday. Canon Cecil J. Stuart ('97-'99), a Life Member of our Board of
Governors, spoke to us on the last Sunday in term.

On April 13 we had a sermon by the Reverend A. Beauchamp Payne,
a retired clergyman of the Diocese of Ontario, who lives now in our
neighbourhood. He was followed by the Reverend William R. Coleman,
Principal of Huron College. The Reverend Thomas R. Milman, known
for his published research in Canadian Church history, found time to
visit us on April 27.

Since we last welcomed the Reverend William Bothwell, he has spent
a year at St. Augustine's College, Canterbury, and is now Chaplain of
the University of Toronto. The Reverend H. B. Snell, Rector of St. Aidan's,
Toronto, was honoured a few days after his visit by an appointment as
Canon of St. James' Cathedral. There was also an address by Thomas
D. Wilding ('45-'52), a candidate for Holy Orders in training at Trinity
College, who was Head Sacristan at T.C.S. when the Memorial Chapel
was consecrated in 1951.

On two occasions our prayers were asked for Old Boys being ordained :
David Arthur Smith ('47-'51) at North Bay by the Archbishop of Algoma,
and a few days later D. W. Luxton ('48-'53) by the Bishop of Huron.

Throughout the School year, Hugh Gordon has managed well the
exacting duties of the Head Sacristan. On Speech Day the Choir Prize
was awarded to Kenneth Scott and the prize for Reading in Chapel to
Ian Robertson.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

GIFTS TO THE SCHOOL

The Toronto Branch of the Ladies' Guild has presented the School
with two large embossed shields to honour two of the six T.C.S. Old Boys
who have become bishops. These very attractive and colourful ornaments
have been painstakingly carved, painted and illuminated by Mr. Scott
Carter of Toronto. One bears the coat of arms of Niagara, former Diocese
of the Right Rev. L. W. B. Broughall; it consists of a rainbow super-
imposed over Niagara Falls, below which is the Cross of George and
three maple leaves. The other, in memory of Archbishop Renison, carries
the arms of Moosonee Diocese on the dexter side, consisting of a setting
Sim over James Bay, with three men paddling a canoe in the foreground;
Impaled is the Renison coat of arms, each of the two occupying one half
of the shield. These gifts have been placed over the stalls of the Chaplain
and the Headmaster, and add a welcome touch of colour. It is hoped
that, eventually, four other shields will be obtained and placed similarly
over other masters' stalls to make a complete collection.

THE BAT

The Dramatic Society staged its annual Easter play on Tuesday,
March 25. Under the guidance of Mr. Angus Scott, the Society presented
one of the longest plays ever put on at T.C.S. "The Bat" is a mystery
adapted by Mary Roberts Rinehart and Avery Hopwood from Mrs. Rine-
hart's famous story "The Circular Staircase."

Cornelia Van Gorder (Stockwood), a maiden lady of sixty, rents
the summer home of a New York banker, Courtleigh Fleming, who has
been reported dead in Colorado some days before. She is warned of
mysterious occurrences around the house, but refuses to move, ignoring
the frightened pleas of her maid Lizzie (Richards). About this time it

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD g

is discovered that a large sum of money is missing from Mr. Fleming's
bank. Gradually the suspicion is aroused that the President has stolen
the money himself and hidden it somewhere in the house. There are four
people after the missing money; the new gardener (Ross Hodge tts) who
is really the wrongly accused cashier of the bank, trying to clear him-
self and aided by his secret love, Dale Ogden (Nick Ketchum) who has
been hired by Miss Van Gorder to clear up the mystery; a doctor friend
of the missing banker, and the Bat, a notorious thief who has long
eluded the police. A murder at the end of the first act creates many false
leads for the audience to follow and it is impossible for one to know who
the real criminal is until the very end.

Mowat, Denny, Braden, Howard, Haslett and Tottenham were also
part of this very good evening of entertainment.

The stage hands under Mr. Bishop, again did a very efficient job
and Dr. Spencer organized the costumes.

Many thanks to Mr. Scott, all the cast and particularly those in
leading roles who worked very hard to learn their long and difficult roles,
with an end result of one of the best plays produced at T.C.S. in many
years.

THE PAT MOSS FAIR

In order to raise funds for the Pat Moss summer camp, the Fifth
Form conducted two campaigns; the first was a Drive, which collected
about two hundred dollars, and the other was the third annual Pat Moss
Fair. The Fair took place on April 19, lasting for about two hours. It
certainly was the best yet, from the point of view of finance as well as
fun. Under the direction of Willows, the gym was converted into an
assortment of attractive booths (the School was divided into teams by
the dining-hall seating arrangement). There was everything: dart-throw-
ing, roulette, guessing the number of beans in a jar, a golf-putting game,
and much more. The most profitable booth was one managed by Mr.
Lawson's table which had a chicken race-track — using three young chicks
— and finally selling them for a total of over thirty dollars. A dart-throw-
ing booth won over twenty dollars, using as targets the images of a
few notable masters. Then Mr. Heard's table, where the customer tried
to put out a candle with a water gun, made almost twenty dollars. Of
course the most business went to the gambling joints, although few made
much profit. Braden's booth seemed to be haunted by a select few, but
the most widely-advertised booth was a "Playboy Casino". The grand
total was some two hundred and sixty-five dollars, the results of a
very successful and lively evening. Though most people were broke at
the end, everybody enjoyed himself.

MR. GREER SPEAKS ON ARCHITECTURE

On the evening of Friday, April 17, the School was honoured by
the visit of an Old Boy, Mr. W. N. Greer. Mr. Greer, who drew up the
plans for Bickle House last spring, came back to the School to give his
listeners an idea of the study of architecture and some of the problems
involved.

In his talk, Mr. Greer told us that architecture is a subject involving
many fields of study. It involves lectures in art, mathematics, surveying,
legal functions, and history, to name a few. A general course of architec-
ture in university corresponds roughly to civil engineering. The fact
most impressed upon us was that architectural designs must advance
with science, as so much depends on science.

To conclude the evening, Mr. Greer showed the School some excellent
colour slides giving examples of Old World and North American architec-
ture, from famous cathedrals to modern homes. These proved very in-
teresting for everyone. Our grateful thanks go to Mr. Greer for his
visit to us.

MR. J. B. S. SOUTHEY'S TALK ON LAW

On Tuesday, May 20, Mr. J. B. S. Southey (1941-'44) spoke to
several members of the Fifth and Sixth Forms in the library on the legal
profession. Mr. Southey went from T.C.S. to Queen's University on a
scholarship. From there he carried on at Osgoode Hall where he did
extremely fine work.

Beginning with a general description of the fundamentals of the
law profession, Mr. Southey categorized his subject into Criminal and
Civil Law. The latter is made up of Statutory Law and Common Law
which are the decrees of a government and former decisions in civil cases,
respectively. While most people are more familiar with criminal law, only
a small percentage of lawyers are solely engaged in this field.

The majority of lawyers are occupied in corporation work, real estate
transactions and the managing of deceased persons' wills. Mr. Southey
pointed out that much of a lawyer's work involves giving advice and
for this reason he must be very familiar with the common law. Lawyers
are often engaged in litigation or court work which is not only inter-
esting but constitutes a formidable battle of wits.

After giving the outline of a lawyer's fundamental duties, Mr. Southey
described the university course which leads to the L.L.B. degree and
finally the call to the Bar. He then discussed the different ways of
becoming a practising lawyer after being called to the Bar. There then
followed a very interesting session of questions and answers.

This was an excellent talk as it gave the boys a real picture of the
work carried on by a lawyer and how one becomes a member of the
legal profession. We are indeed grateful to Mr. Jim Southey for so
willingly giving his time to speak to us.

THE IMPROMPTU SPEAKING FINALS

On Friday, April 11, the finals of the annual public speaking were
held in Osier Hall. Nine boys from the Fifth and Sixth Forms gave five
minute speeches. Each contestant chose one of eight different topics and
had only five minutes to prepare his speech. Bill Holton, the opening
speaker, gave a factual account of the Ford Motor Company's history.
He was followed by Peter Allen, who gave some whimisically amusing
opinions on newspapers and editorials. The future of missiles and rockets
in the field of engineering received a strong boost from Dennis Willows.
Always a controversial subject, the question of learning French in Canada
was discussed clearly by Ian Angus. Ted Ketchum then presented a
convincing argument that atom tests should be suspended. After his
speech, Mike Osier compared the Russian educational system with ours.
A very humorous talk followed, as Dave Gordon gave his views on Queen
Elizabeth. David Stockwood, true to form, twisted his topic of 'Fire' to
"The Fire of Youth" and, with humorous sarcasm, spoke on juvenile
delinquency. Hugh Gordon ended the list by giving a description of the
more colourful incidents in Sir Winston Churchill's life.

The standard of impromptu speaking was exceptionally high this
year, with both subject matter and presentation revealing the con-
centration, but also the confident ease of all the speakers. The choice of a
winner was particularly difficult, but after long deliberation the judges
awarded their decision to Dave Gordon and Ted Ketchum as a tie. All
the speakers are to be congratulated on their first-rate performance, and
thanks are especially due to Messrs. Humble, Gordon and Massey, for
giving freely of their time to judge the contest.

INSPECTION DAY, 1958

With little rainy weather to hamper it, the Cadet Corps this year
drUled almost without a break from the beginning of the Trinity Term
to Inspection Day. On the preceding Friday, however, a cold front moved
into Ontario and during the last House DrUls that afternoon, a few flakes

of snow fell.

But despite the overcast sky, some 1,100 guests turned out to see the
Corps go through its paces. Major General J. D. Smith, Commandant of
the National Defence College at Kingston, took the salute from the
squadron commanded by Cadet Squadron Leader, S. A. W. Shier. Midway
through the ceremonial parade Corporal Southern was presented with his

wings.

Cadet W02 ffiggins. Sergeant Peter Allen and the other senior mem-
bers are to be congratulated on turning out an excellent band. Doug's
performance with the mace, a novelty this year, won much praise, as did
the general demeanour of the band. During the band show three T-33's
from Trenton made a brief fly-past.

The long awaited House Drill commenced after the special show of
the band. Brent House, led by Cadet Flight Lieutenant Ken Scott, went
out first followed by Bethune House under Cadet Flight Lieutenant Bob
Hart.

After the traditional panoramic picture, it was disclosed that Doug
Wigle had won an air cadet scholarship. After this, suspense was broken
when Group Captain West announced that Bethune House had won the
Drill Cup. Congratulations to F/L Hart, his officers and all the Bethune
cadets.

Luckily, the weather held off long enough for the gym show to take
place outside. The high bar, parallel bar and box horse teams performed
in a very professional manner. The physical training and Boulden House
gfroups also did a good job.

At the end of the show Major General Smith congratulated the
School on the whole day's work and announced a whole holiday for the
following Monday. Later there was a coke party at the tuck shop for
all the boys, their partners and younger Old Boys, while the Headmaster
and Mrs. Ketchum entertained the other guests at the Lodge.

The informal dance in the gym started at 8.30. Everyone present
admired the fine decorations on the theme of "Spanish cafe" which was
done by the Fifth Form boys. Once again this year Mr. Bob Gilbert pro-
vided the music. Many thanks to the Fifth Form boys for the decorations
and to Mrs. Wilson and Fuzzy Knight who arranged the girls' accom-
modations.

On Sunday, a special Chapel Service was held, which many visitors
attended, and at which the Right Rev. R. L. Seaborn, newly appointed
Assistant Bishop of Newfoundland, gave the address. In the afternoon
cricket games were held in spite of unfavourable weather.

ARMED SERVICES TRAINING PLAN

On Tuesday, May 27, Colonel A. C. Brett, who is in charge of army
recruiting for Ontario and is personnel director with the army at Oakville,
spoke to some members of the Fifth and Sixth forms about the Tri-Service
training plans in Canada. First he remarked that he had not come to sell
these plans to us, but simply wanted to see how many boys were interested.

There are two training plans in operation in Canada. The Regular
Officers' Training Plan includes the three services, and is designed as a
means of providing permanent careers in the services to young men. The
Reserve plans are for men at university, who train for a few hours each
week during the year, and attend a camp in the summer, being qualified
for a commission when finished. There is an Air Force Reserve plan, along
with the Army's Canadian Officers' Training Corps, and the University
Naval Training Division.

The R.O.T.P. either trains candidates at one of Canada's three miU-
tary colleges, or put them through any one of a large number of Canadian
imiversities, and trains them during the year and in the summer, being
similar to the Reserve Plans. Candidates are required to remain in the
services for three years after graduation. It is hoped that most of them
will make a career out of the service and since some 85 per cent of the
officers remain permanently, the plan can be judged worthwhile. The
plan includes payment of tuition fees, uniform, room and board and a
monthly allowance for a candidate at a service college, and similar allow-
ances for university students. There are three service colleges: Royal
Roads at Victoria, R.M.C. and Le College Militaire Royale de Saint Jean
in Quebec. The latter accepts candidates on their Junior Matriculation,
while the others demand Ontario Grade 13 or equivalent standing. All
students at service colleges take a general course in Arts, Science and
Military Studies for two years, then may choose between engineering and
a liberal arts course. The colleges cannot grant a university degree, but
if this is desired, it can be obtained in one year at many universities.
Future officers are chosen after an interview, a physical examination and
a number of aptitude tests.

After describing the operation of the plans. Colonel Brett answered
various questions about military life, and said that private school, with
its cadet work, gives one a basic idea of life at a military college, although
naturally the miUtary aspect is stresssd much more there. We are very
grateful to Colonel Brett for giving freely of his time for this enlightening
disaission.

THE WRECK

Rain and thick fog were blamed for an early morning accident at
the C.P.R. level crossing on Highway 2, a few miles east of Port Hope,
on Tuesday, April 29. The driver of a Smith Transport tractor-trailer
unit heading east apparently missed the crossing signal and whistle of
a westbound freight, then applied his brakes and jack-knifed onto the
tracks. The resulting collision demolished the cab and proved fatal for
the driver. The force of the impact caused the derailment of the twin-
unit diesel engine and nineteen box cars, which telescoped together into
a mass of twisted metal.

Sixth Form boys who had finished test exams hurried to the scene
to watch salvaging operations begin in heavy rain. Many hunted for

souvenirs, posed ingenuously for newspaper photographs, and discussed
the question of firemen on diesels with railwaymen, while tow trucks
separated the truck cab and trailer, a new tractor pulled the trailer from
the ditch, and railway crews set to work on the dislocated track. The
wreck remained a scene of attraction for T.C.S. that day, but by the
afternoon, the arrival of railway cranes and bulldozers, to move the de-
molished cars, had changed the picture substantially, and it was only
a matter of hours before the line was cleared and the highway reopened
to traffic. Thus another level crossing tragedy became simply a curious
incident, its import to be realized only by shareholders of the C.P.R.,
which owns the trucking firm, and by government statisticians.

THE SCHOOL DANCE

The annual School Dance took place on Easter Monday, April 7. On
Sunday, several of the Prefects and their partner's arrived to put up the
decorations. Doug Higgins took charge and set about transforming Osier
Hall into an astonishing woodland grotto. A number of twenty foot trees
were felled and hauled to the School, where they were whitewashed and
trimmed. Cheesecloth dipped in starch and hung on the leafless branches.

gave the effect of Spanish Moss. The trees were placed against the walls
of the Hall, and then a latticework made of some thousand feet of heavy
rope was stretched across the top, more Spanish Moss being hung on it.
Blue lights, placed beneath the trees, and shining upwards, gave a weird
but certainly unique touch to the scene.

Monday afternoon saw the arrival of all the girls, who stayed over-
night in Boulden House under the supervision of Mrs. Belton and Mrs.
Wilson. Following supper there. Chapel service took place, and then
there was the usual frantic interlude to change into glittering evening
dress. Shortly before nine o'clock, the couples started arriving at the
Hall, and were received by Dr. and Mrs. Ketchum, Tony Lash, accom-
panied by Miss Marion Marshall, and Alan Shier with Miss Penny Hallett.
Once again the versatile MacFarlane band from Peterborough supplied
the music. The somewhat harsh, cold atmosphere induced by the blue
lights had no adverse effect on the guests, for the Dance was highly
successful. About one hundred couples were present, including some
adults from Port Hope and Cobourg. The dancing lasted until two a.m.
Congratulations to all those who helped make this a most enjoyable
event for everyone.

SPECIAL DINNERS

The Choir Dinner was held on Saturday, April 26, and was attended
by the choristers from Boulden House as well as those from the Senior
School. After an excellent meal of fried chicken, the Headmaster read
some extracts from the first issue of the "Record" of 1898, which made
reference to the Choir at that time; he also congratulated the Choir on
its work during the year, particularly the special services and the trip to
London.

All members of Bigside teams and the captains, vice captains, and
coaches of all teams of the winter terms attended the Winter Athletics
Dinner on Friday, May 2. A large number of speeches featured the
evening, both from the coaches and the captains of the various teams,
beginning with hockey, which has been played longest at T.C.S. of any of
the winter sports, and ending with the championship swim team. Also,
several coaches received gifts from the boys, and although the opinion
was expressed that this practice has been carried too far in recent years,
the quality and originality of the presents, particularly the silk sweat suit
designed especially for Mr. Heard by the basketball squad, won much
praise.

The Club Dinner took place on Friday, May 16. The members of the
main clubs in the School were present, along with the executive of Junior
Clubs and the masters in charge of all societies. As the Headmaster had
been suddenly called away, Mr. Lewis took charge, and followed the usual
toast to the Queen with another to the members of all the clubs, in which
all the staff joined. He then stressed the importance of the Clubs, and

gave a brief account of the history of the Photographic Society. In the
absence of Mark Dowie, Ted Ketchum was called upon to summarize
the operation of the "Record" this year. Votes were taken to determine
the popularity of the various sections of the "Record" but the result did
not indicate that any radical changes were necessary. The Presidents of
most of the other clubs spoke, including Mike Thompson for the Dramatic
Society, Pete Allen for the French Club, Tim Keunish and Dave Gordon
for the Political Science Club and the Librarians respectively. In general
it appeared that the clubs had enjoyed a very healthy popularity this year.
Mrs. Clark and her kitchen staff are to be congratulated for serving
one chicken and two steak dinners, all excellent, to large numbers of guests.

SPEECH ^

IjlJr DAY

Unfortunately, rainy weather hindered the Speech Day proceedings
this year, as it had the Cadet Inspection four weeks earlier. Thus for the
first time in several years, the presentations of awards took place indoors.
This was also the only occasion in recent years when Speech Day has not
been held on a Saturday, but nonetheless, large numbers of parents and
friends managed to be at the School for the occasion.

Following Chapel on Tuesday evening, June 10, most of the athletic
prizes were given out in Osier Hall. Afterwards came the traditional
concert; the Glee Club, under Mr. Prower's direction, sang three Negro
spirituals, while the Choir performed the School songs, along with a
humorous adaptation of "Little Johnnie Went a-Fishing". An innovation
was the quartet of Higgins, Kennish, Scott and Lash, accompanied by
Southam and John Wilson, who gave their polished and well-harmonized
versions of three popular songs. The concert was followed by a movie,
"We're No Angels," in the Assembly Hall.

The Leaving Service was held at 11.00 a.m. on Wednesday; in addition
to the customary Leaving Hymn and anthem, "Go Forth With God", the
Choir performed the "Te Deum" in B flat by Stanford. Because of un-
certain weather and wet ground, the speeches and prize-giving took place
in the gymnasium. Mr. Argue Martin ('14-'17), Chairman of the Govern-
ing Body, introduced the speakers. First the Headmaster gave his report,
outlining the highlights of the School year. The Guest Speaker was The
Honourable George H. Hees ('22-'27), Minister of Transport and the first
Old Boy to become a Cabinet Minister. Mr. Hees, who had a very dis-
tinguished athletic career at T.C.S. afterwards spoke appreciatively of
the honour of being asked to speak at his old School. The text of his
remarks follows:

22 TRINITY COU.EGE SCHOOL RECORD

ADDRESS OF THE HONORABLE GEORGE H. HEES

I would like to thank the Headmaster for his generous introduction.
No one ever said such nice things about me when I was at the School !

Firstly, I would like to tell you how glad I am to be here to celebrate
with all of you the twenty-fifth anniversary of our Headmaster, Dr.
Ketchum. His contribution to the School has been beyond measure. He
has made a great School much greater; indeed, it is one of the great
schools of the world.

I confess this is the first Speech Day I have attended since leaving
the School. You see, I have fallen down badly in the tradition of father
foUowed by son in our School, because I have had only daughters, and
although I have been attending June closings faithfully for eighteen years,
they have been at girls' schools. Having lived for so long with four
women — a wife and three daughters — perhaps I entered politics so that 1
could have a chance to speak with relatively few interruptions!

Be that as it may, it is a privilege to have been chosen to speak at
the closing of my old School. I remember many happy days and recollec-
tions of things, academic and otherwise — mostly otherwise — flood
through my mind when I return to the School amid such well-known sur-
roimdings and see so many of my old friends here, both as parents and
Old Boys.

Remembering my years here as a student, I asked myself what
message I should bring to the graduating class and the boys at the School.
First of all, I realized that I must be brief, and secondly, that I should not
forget to ask the Headmaster to give the School a half -holiday. Brief I
will be, and, sir, I hope that you will concur with my request for a half
holiday next term.

I am also thinking very much of the fact that the School is two
years older than Canada as a nation, having been founded two years
before Confederation. One could draw many interesting parallels follow-
ing this line of thought and I am sure that boys from the School were
associated with all facets of our country's growth.

It is fascinating to remember the boldness and imagination required
to make Canada the country it is today. It was only a few years after
Confederation that Sir John MacDonald envisaged a mightier Canada,
and, against all cautious opinion, built a transcontinental railway across
some 2,000 miles of empty bush and prairie to link Canada with British
Columbia and create one single great country from the Atlantic to the
Pacific.

A great influx of people from the British Isles and Europe and two
world wars have changed this country from a vast, little known colony
into one of the foremost trading nations of the world and a senior mem-
ber in the British Commonwealth of Nations. Union with Newfoundland
and Labrador in 1949 made one country of all the northern half of this

continent, and the present opening up of the Yukon, the Northwest Ter-
ritories and the Arctic Islands is again presenting a challenge to all

Canadians.

It is interesting to realize that this School and Canada have grown
side by side. However, such recollections should not be a matter of com-
placent contemplation but rather an inspiration for the future. A static
school or country soon becomes a dead one and these rapidly changing
times are a challenge to both.

I have no fear that the School will fail to meet the challenge. The
flexibility and courage of outlook displayed by its Headmaster and Board
of Governors throughout the past twenty-five years of social and economic
upheaval augurs well for its future. The challenge presented to young
Canadians is greater and infinitely more difficult.

My job for the past eight years, first as a Member of Parliament and
a cross-country worker for our party, and during the past year as Minister
of Transport, has taken me into practically every town and county, every
province and territory of our country. With the extraordinary growth
of communioaticns m the last few years, I predict that Canada will see
the same expansion in the next twenty-five years as the United States
saw in the last hundred years.

You, who are graduating from school this year and you who are still
at school, will be the ones who will be the makers of the new Canada.
Here you should have acquired, aside from your studies, a discipline of
mind and body, an intellectual courage, a sense of fair play, a tolerance
of others and a sense of responsibility. Put these to work.

Nothing troubles me more today than the fear that our young people
have become security minded. You boys from Trinity College School have
always had a measure of security and therefore you do not need to view
it as an end in itself. This country is about to come into its own in the
arts, the sciences, and the humanities and still has frontiers to conquer.
Its undeveloped potential in every field is the envy of the world.

Canada was built by boldness, not by caution. To you who are going
out into adult life at this moment when Canada is surging ahead, I have
but one message: don't look for the easy, secure life — ^that is an old man's
outlook. Tackle something difficult — something with an ever-widening
opportunity rather than a safe living. Make a contribution to this exciting
country instead of wondering only what's in it for you. Whether it be
in the arts, the professions, the church, politics, or business, keep in mind
that for a young man in a young country, there are exciting opportunities,
and if you seize them, you and Canada will enter into a great period of
fulfilment together.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 25

THE HEADMASTER'S REPORT

Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen:

On Speech Days we are always conscious that another school year
has come to an end; the year 1957-1958 is now part of the T.C.S. story
and the ninety-third chapter of our history has been written. This is
the twenty-fifth Speech Day report I have given and in nearly all of
these and most of the seventy-five Governing Body reports, I have had
to record the loss of some of the best-known members of the T.C.S.
family. This year I mention three members of the Governing Body and
one former member, Archbishop Renison, R. C. H. Cassels, Arthur Mew-
bum and N. H. Macaulay; two former masters Archdeacon Sawers and
Stuart Geldard, and the widow of a former Headmaster, Mrs. F. G.
Orchard. As long as Canada remembers her great men Archbishop
Renison's life will be recalled; he was with us last year on Speech Day
and the School was always close to his heart: Mr. Cassels was a dis-
tinguished barrister and for many years carried the burden of a school
deep in debt; Mr. Arthur Mewburn and Col. N. H. Macaulay never for-
got the School and they delighted to hear good news of it; Archdeacon
Sawers and Stuart Geldard served the School well as masters, the one
for a few years as Classics Master and the other as Mathematics Master,
and Housemaster always on duty for twenty years; Archdeacon Sawers
visited us nearly every year for fifteen years and spoke in Chapel. Mrs.
Orchard had lived in Port Hope since the war and her thoughts were so
often of the School. We shall ever owe much to these and so many others
who did far more than their share in shaping the destiny of the School;
and we shall not forget them.

Before the war we began to urge likely boys to think of Govern-
ment Service as a career, realizing that the roll of T.C.S. men who had
gone into public life was not a long one. Since then two Old Boys have
been elected to the Canadian House of Commons and two to the British
House of Commons ; our Chairman was a member of the Ontario Legisla-
tive Assembly and President of the Progressive Conservative Association
in Hamilton; two Old Boys are now Mayors of Cities, and about twelve
Old Boys have entered External Affairs, two becoming Ambassadors,
one of whom, Mr. Charles Ritchie, is now Canadian Representative to
the United Nations and last month was President of the Security Council.

To-day we welcome the first T.C.S. Old Boy to become a Federal
Cabinet Minister and we congratulate Mr. George Hees not only on his
success at the polls and in being selected for an important post in the
Cabinet but also, and very sincerely, on the way he has acquitted him-
self in the House, and the most efficient manner in which he is running
his important department. T.C.S., R.M.C., the University of Toronto,
Emmanuel College, Cambridge, he chose his training grounds well. His
fortitude and physique and skill won him the British Intercollegiate
Heavyweight Boxing Championship, and the Porter at Emmanuel still

talks of him; later he played on the Argonaut football team before the
days of imports and salaries. He served throughout the war in the
Infantry rising to the rank of Major; he was wounded in 1944. For eight
years now he has been a Member of Parliament, seven of them being
lean years for his party, but now he is enjoying the fruits of unprecedented
election success for which he was one of the principal architects and
an untiring worker. We pay tribute to the Hon. George Hees and Mrs.
Hees and thank them most sincerely for coming to-day.

The events of this school year have been well reported in the T.C.S.
News, and I am going to draw attention to-day only to those which seem
to have had some special significance.

The Michaelmas Term with its lovely weather was clouded by the
worst epidemic the School has ever suffered; just when we thought we
were going to escape the widespread flu onslaught, it struck us early in
October and for three weeks and more we were flooded with patients.
Over two hundred boys were affected, but we were fortunate that only
a small number were seriously ill. We could never have managed to
give them any proper attention had it not been for the willing and efficient
help of so many wives and daughters of masters who with masters and
our own most capable nurses and doctor kept control of the situation.
We are most grateful to them, to the parents who came down and took
their sick boys home, and to Mrs. Clarke and the kitchen staffs of both
Schools who managed to produce appetizing sustenance for as many as
seventy bed patients at a time.

Despite that unprecedented interruption in our programme much
of the work normally done was accomplished, and by introducing extra
study and class periods in the Lent Term we were fairly well caught
up by Easter.

We believed we were going to have a good football team but with
the flu and the loss through injury of a star player the sky began to
darken. However, the boys did not let set-backs deter them and the
team of 1957 will go down in Football History as the first Little Big
Four team to win all its School games without being scored upon. It is
doubtful if such a feat will ever be accomplished again for this year we
had an extraordinarily well balanced team which without any one out-
standing player rolled along as one man and gave many memorable
performances. Mr. Lawson, the enthusiastic and very capable coach,
Kennish and Lash the Captains and every member of the team deserve
our sincere congratulations for making football history in the famous
Little Big Four League. "Flu and Football" might be a good title for
the autumn term for both were unprecedented, but there were other
events.

Bickle House was officially opened and those of us who have ex-
perienced fifteen years of overflow quarters know what a boon it has
been to have every boy in the main buildings. Mr. and Mrs. E. W. Bickle

made this House possible, a memorial to their son T. H. Bickle, and we
shall ever be grateful to them. May I mention, too, Mr. Charles Burns
whose idea it was, and who has done so much for the School and Mr.
H. L. Hall and Mr. Strachan Ince who gave up much of their summer
to see that it was completed in ten weeks ; their assistance was invaluable

to us.

In August we knew that the Upper School or Senior Matriculation
results of the top Sixth Form of 1957 were something quite exceptional
and later it became clear that our VIA class of sixteen boys won a higher
proportion of total honours and a higher proportion of first class honours
in those examinations than any other class at any time of which there
is any record. Only two papers were failed, 82 ^r were honor papers,
41 Sf first class honours. We are very proud of those boys and the masters
who taught them.

Two of our present VI Form boys have recently heard of their suc-
cess in being admitted to Colleges in the United States. Kennish has
been accepted at Harvard where there were 4,200 applicants for 1,100
places, and Stephenson has been accepted by both Dartmouth and Colby,
and Colby has awarded him a scholarship. We congratulate them. A
boy who left last June and has been abroad for a year, Tom Allen, was
accepted by both Princeton and Harvard.

In January our Choir visited London, Ontario, singing in the Huron
College Chapel on Saturday evening and on Sunday morning in the
Cathedral. It was an occasion we shall never forget for the Cathedral
was packed and the boys sang very well under Mr. Cohu's direction. We
are indebted to Mr. Alex Graydon, the Dean and Wardens, the Governors,
Parents, and others in London who were so hospitable to fifty boys and
those who accompanied them.

Early in the New Year the Canadian Foundation for Independent
Boys' Schools was formally established at a meeting in Toronto. For
some years a number of us have felt that the seventeen member schools
of the Headmasters' Association should be more closely bound together
through an organization of Governors which would give more direction
and assistance to the work and aims of these schools. The apparatus
has now been set up and we all hope that the Foundation will prove its
worth within a few years.

At T.C.S. our Old Boys' Association has now approved the consti-
tution of the T.C.S. Association, a vehicle through which Old Boys,
Parents of Boys, and Friends of T.C.S. will be able to lend support to
the School in many ways. I have always liked to refer to the T.C.S.
Family which over a period of ninety-three years has grown to sizable
proportions, many members of which have given tremendous help to the
School, particularly at times of crisis such as after the two fires of 1895
and 1928, during the move to Woodstock, during days of depression when
debt was slowly strangling us, and when new buildings and equipment

were badly needed. The School could not have survived without such
magnificent and whole-hearted assistance. Now we are all going to be
banded together in the T.C.S. Association and we wish the new body a
long and prosperous life. Messrs. Winnett, Taylor and Duncanson are
to be thanked and congratulated for these happy results and we are in-
debted to Mr. Colin Strathy for the legal advice and most valuable help

he gave.

In March, Mrs. Ketchum and I visited Vancouver, Victoria and
Calgary; we met Old Boys and parents of boys in large numbers and they
were most hospitable to us. Though our representation from the west
is at present not large we value very highly our connection with that
great and growing part of Canada where we have some five hundred Old
Boys and we hope that through the T.C.S. Fund special awards may be
made to boys from the west so that travelling expenses may not add so
heavily to the cost of boarding school education in the east.

Again the School has benefited tremendously by many gifts. The
Fund continues to grow and a number of most generous contributions
have recently been made to it. At present it is providing income to the
amount of nearly eleven thousand dollars annually, most of which goes
to scholarships and bursaries.

Mr. H. L. Hall gave electric stoves and refrigerators for the masters'
apartments in the Houses, Mr. Barry Hayes gave us another broadloom
rug, Mr. Booth equipped a photography room in Boulden House with the
latest and best apparatus, the Ladies' Guild of Toronto have recently
placed in the Chapel the coats of arms of two of the six Dioceses of which
Old Boys have been Bishops; these shields are those of Moosonee where
Archbishop Renison ministered as Missionary and Bishop, and Niagara
where Bishop Broughall was Bishop. They have been beautifully designed
and coloured by Mr. Scott Carter. The Montreal Guild gave another much
needed bursary, the Port Hope Guild the kneelers in the gallery of the
Chapel, four fathers of boys gave us films of the football games and
new and generous bursaries have been established by Mrs. J. W. Langmuir
and Mr. Dudley Dawson and his mother. Over 50 Old Boys and friends
of the School have donated all the prizes we are giving to-day and gave
last night.

The Library continues to be the place it should be, the centre for
reading and reference. Under Mr. Gordon's most able direction there is
always a new selection of books, attention is drawn by cleverly contrived
announcements, and the circulation of nearly 17 books a boy is the
largest on record. A high fidelity reproducing machine was given by the
Guild and boys may listen to records of plays, speeches, poetry and special
music by ear-phones. The Ferro Enamels Company, through the good
ofifices of Mr. Argue Martin, Mr. Wilfred Mavor and Mr. Henry McLaren
have given the School a kiln which we shall put to good use when we
begin pottery work. For all these gifts and many others we are deeply
grateful.

32 TRINITY COLLEX3E SCHOOL. RECORD

Work has gone along steadily throughout the year and a good
number of boys, probably a larger percentage than usual, have obtained
very high averages. The number of scholarships T.C.S. boys have won
at universities, 176 in twenty-four years, is quite amazing and you will
see in your Speech Day booklets the distinctions which have come to
many other Old Boys. We are all particularly happy that four of our
yoxmgest Old Boys have been ordained in the last year.

The Clubs have functioned well. Debating, Speaking, Political Science,
French, Dramatic, Photography and Electronics and others, and a num-
ber of boys have been helping youngsters in the Town in the Scouts and
St. Mark's Simday School. The Choir has practiced most faithfully and
sang very well indeed; Scott, the Head Choir Boy, and Mr. Cohu deserve
the thanks of the whole School.

The School Magazine, The Record, has now been issued for sixty
years and last Christmas a special number was published to mark the
occasion. For twenty years from 1933 until 1953 we printed six copies
a year, each copy growing from forty pages to a hundred and more
pages. From 1953 until this year the numbers were reduced to five copies
a year and Old Boys' Bulletins were published from time to time. This
year we have changed the size and format and paper of the magazine
and are pubhshing it three times a year; the T.C.S. News is now a
bright publication issued three times a year and sent to all Old Boys
and parents. In this way we hope to keep more of the T.C.S. family up
to date with the School and its happenings; they have done so much
to help the School that we feel the least we can do is to keep them in-
formed. Mr. A. H. Humble has been the master in charge of The Record
for sixteen years and has given much time and thought to it; Mr. Jim
Kerr, the Executive Director of the T.C.S. Association, is in charge of
the T.C.S. News. We thank them both for their most valuable help.

The hockey team won the Lawrenceville Tournament again in Prince-
ton and once more made many friends; two of the games were as close
as they could be. We have already been invited to participate next
December. Some of the games played during the winter were thrilling
and exceptionally skilful from beginning to end. Shier was the Captain,
Smith the Vice-Captain and the team was coached by Mr. Lawson. The
Swimming Team developed into the best one we have ever had winning
the Little Big Four Tournament and the Eastern Canada Inter School
meet at McGill. Lash, the Captain, Warner, Davis and the members of
the relay teams who made records and all the members of the team
have set a mark in swimming which will not soon be equalled. No other
T.C.S. team to my knowledge has ever won a Canadian title. Mr. Hodgetts,
Head Coach, Mr. Massey and Mr. Kirkpatrick, assistants, devoted them-
selves to the team and well deserved the praise which they have received,
Davies became one of the best gymnasts we have ever had and the team,
coached again by Mr. Armstrong, won two meets during the winter iq

competition with many other schools. This term our Cricket Team
coached by Mr. White assisted by Mr. Corbett surprised us by winning
from Ridley and St. Andrew's and showing unusual skill in fielding. Upper
Canada had a very strong team and well deserved their championship.

The Cadet Corps and the Band were, according to many visitors, the
best we have had. The weather was not favourable to us on Inspection
Day but the excellence of the drill and gym work made up for lack of
warmth. Mr. Batt, Mr. Armstrong, Shier, Lash, all the officers and cadets
have received much commendation and well deserve it. Higgins and Allen
trained the band to become the best we have had.

Boulden House under the capable direction of Mr. Tottenham has
had a good year and we congratulate Shewell and Preston on winning
scholarships for entrance to the Senior School. We had more boys writing
entrance and scholarship examinations in March than ever before and
the expected vacancies were taken many weeks ago. I must not forget
to mention the Boulden House Hockey Team which went through the
season undefeated; we congratulate them.

Mr. Massey has won a Ford Foundation Fellowship at Yale where
he will be studying education next year; Mr. Kingman is going to
California to study Geography, Mrs. McGaw is retiring and now Mrs.
Spencer tells me she finds it necessary to move to Ottawa. We can never
properly thank teachers who have devoted themselves to their great
work, for a distinguished teacher is almost beyond compare; they truly
have their own reward for there is no satisfaction quite equal to that of
realizing that you are being of vital help to boys and that your efforts
are deeply appreciated. I thank all the members of the staff, Boulden
House and Senior School, for all they have done this year beyond the
call of duty.

No one at the School ever fully realizes how much business has to
be done behind the scenes so that the School may function satisfactorily.
We are first and foremost a School with the avowed object of training
boys so that they may live the remaining three quarters of their lives
with advantage to their fellow human beings and to themselves. But a
School this size has innumerable financial and business questions to
resolve, month by month, decisions have to be taken about policy and
many other matters. In those affairs we depend on our Governors for
help and they have always responded without thought of themselves. In
particular the Chairman and Secretary, the Members of the Finance
Committee and Building Committee give hours of work for the benefit
of the School. I have already mentioned the wonderful help given by the
Building Committee of Mr. H. L. Hall and Mr. Strachan Ince and now
I should like to mention Mr. G. S. Osier, the Chairman of the Finance
Committee which administers the T.C.S. Fund; he alone knows how much
attention has to be given to such financial dealings but several of us
have a pretty good idea and we realize that we owe him much for ad-

ministering the Fund so well. Mr. S. B. Saunders has been Secretary
of the Board for many years and has given literally hundreds of hours
to the work of the School, not mentioning the typing and mailing and
long distance calls all at his own expense. Mr. Argue Martin has been
Chairman for three years and has therefore been primarily responsible
for the operation of every branch of the School's efforts. I know I am
speaking for all members of the Board when I say that we have never
known a better Chairman in every way. He has kept in touch with
every detail, has analysed and expounded complicated questions in a
clear and forceful fashion, his decisions are always well taken and he
conducts meetings gracefully, wittily, and with dispatch. (Only when
the Headmaster's report is strung out too far does he feel his time table
is being sabotaged). The School can never begin to express the depth
of its indebtedness to these Governors for all they have done and are
doing.

Before finishing off this report I feel it is important that I mention
one matter which is concerning many schools and many teachers in
schools. In the years I have spent in schools I have never heard so much
perplexity, discouragement and almost distraction expressed by men and
women who are close to the younger generation. To put it simply and
in few words they believe that the manners and ethics and morals of
a larger mmiber of adolescents than ever before are very far from satis-
factory and are growing worse. They see both a lowering of standards
and rules of conduct until they hardly exist at all, and a disappearance
of parental authority and control. I don't think this is a case of the
older generation constantly criticizing the younger or the teachers try-
ing to pass the buck to the parents. Anyone who does not deceive him-
self and has the courage to look at the facts clearly knows full well that
the yoimg have more freedom to go to the devil, and that there are more
devils waiting about to attract them, than ever before in living memory.
I think we should realize that the teen ager of to-day does not remember
at first hand any of the war years, the losses, the privations, the wounded,
the massacres, the thousands of refugees, the question of survival of whole
peoples, the imexampled courage and gallantry shown in the face of
overwhelming odds, the quiet heroism of thousands in just maintaining
life for their families, the ideals for which we fought and which we hold
so dear. This is all really just history to the modern teenager. He has
lived his impressionable years of awareness in times of unprecedented
prosperity, unprecedented self indulgence, and in the middle of an un-
precedented barrage of communications, much of which is highly sug-
gestive and destructive. At the same time parents in large numbers are
too occupied in their children's free hours to teach them how to meet
these attacks or to give them a firm basis on which to build character.
They leave it to the schools, but the schools can hardly control their large
classes, and they wash their hands of responsibility after school hours.

TRINITY COIXEGE SCHOOL. RECORD

The net result is that we are face to face with a rising generation,
large numbers of whom are drifting without a chart, without ideals, with-
out real character or true religion. They so often see their elders in-
dulging themselves, there are few restrictions on them and what there
are can be broken, so it is little wonder they fall in with a gang and
utterly waste their talents. We remember the words of Her Majesty the
Queen, speaking on Christmas Day:

"The trouble is caused by unthinking people who carelessly throw
away ageless ideals as if they were old and outworn machinery. They
would have religion thrown aside, morality in personal and public life
made meaningless, honesty counted as foolishness, and self interest set
up in place of self restraint".

I have told our boys that they must realize that these conditions
exist and that there is no more important work for them to do than to
try to correct some of these abuses and to salvage some of these young-
sters. Parents, Schoolmasters and Clergy must work together as partners
in meeting what has all the appearance of a real crisis in our social life.
The western world must take stock of its coming man-power and woman-
power and stop the rot which has set in before it is too late; that great
work is surely much more essential than training large numbers in the
use of weapons, for what good is an army without aims and ambitions,
without integrity and character, without ideals and self control? In our
life time we have seen the rout of such forces by the millions. Every
one of us of adult years should begin now to tear away the tinsel and
the dross and the vain show and appearance and idle chat and solemn
nothings of our lives and get down to the fundamental kernel from
which all worthwhile life develops. Only then can we do something for
the post war youth of North America which seems to be on its way in
large numbers to becoming a lost generation.

A School like this has a special responsibility in such a crusade and
we are not living up to our obligations unless most of the boys wlio
leave us are strong enough not only to direct and discipline themselves
profitably but will also attract and lead another who has not had the
same advantage.

I have high hopes for this leaving class of 1958; compared with
their opposite numbers of other years and in other schools they measure
up and give us reason to be proud of them. Particularly I mention the
Prefects; throughout the year they have given a strong lead, they have
shown much moral courage, they have put the good of the group before
their own interests, and they have discharged their responsibilities, and
they have been many, without fear or favour and with firmness leavened
with understanding. One could hardly ask for a more dependable and
trustworthy group.

To all those who are leaving we give congratulations on their many
accomplishments here, we wish them well in the years to come, and we
hope they will be true crusaders for the strong, the pure, and the true.

Adieu, which means, may God be with you.
