EDITORIAL

Fatalism and defeatism. Two common words. Two
doctrines of similar nature. Attitudes not usually claimed,
yet in actual fact enjoying widespread popularity. You dis-
agree? I will attempt to explain.

First of all, let us resolve the meaning of these terms.
The word "fatalism," as defined by the Oxford Dictionary,
means "the submission to all that happens as inevitable."
That is, that the outcome of any issue is completely pre-
determined by some higher power, apparently exclusive of

2 TFaNITY CX)LJL,EGE SCHOOL RECORD

human effort. You can see how this attitude might tend
to degenerate to defeatism which is "the conduct tending to
bring about the acceptance of defeat."

Most people would instinctively disagree with these
opening statements. Granted, they seemingly present rather
pessimistic observations. However, allow me to illustrate
my simple postulations.

Take for instance the recent examples of last year's
Senior Matriculation Examinations. I think it is reasonable
to state that a certain amount of fatalism is associated
with every test, and the amount is as much or greater for
these. You will remember that among the first papers
written was Geometry, and an infamous paper it was! The
paper was of such unexpected nature that it discouraged
many a good student to the extent that mentally he con-
ceded his entire matric. This was apparent in the results
of the remaining papers. A costly if simple case of de-
featism.

The same philosophy has decided many an athletic
contest. Frequently you hear of a so-called "jinx", where
one team (or person) has become resigned to being tra-
ditionally drubbed by another. Since they have virtually
given up all hopes for victory before the game has as much
as started, they do not play to win, but merely to "finish the
game". Under these conditions the fine tradition is usually
upheld. TCS had some such troubles several years ago in
football with the Little Big Four school that parades as its
mascot a rather bedraggled looking jungle beast. However,
we hasten to add that this misconception no longer exists.

But let us not limit our scope to TCS, for as its life yields
a multitude of examples, so does every other sphere of
activity. Take voodoo fans, for instance. Here, once the
dreaded curse has descended upon the hapless recipient, he
begins to die immediately. His misguided faith is so strong
that his mind submits to death without question, and con-
sequently his body wastes away and shortly he dies a
physical death also.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 3

There is a more modern if less stirring example of
fatalism with which I am sure you are all familiar. I refer
of course to that drivel set to music entitled "Que sera,
sera", (Whatever will be will be.)

However, so much for examples. Now let us resolve
the main problem. What causes these moods of fatalism and
defeatism? Sometimes, of course, it is the result of trying
to combat the uncombatable. More often, though, it seems
to be one's admission of inadequacy to master any given
situation or obstacle, as in the case of those Senior Matric
exams. What the attitudes really amount to is retiring and
allowing the situation to follow its self -chosen course, without
the benefit of your own mental or physical effort. (What-
ever will be, will be.) In addition, if you have reached the
defeatist stage, you probably expect its course to terminate
m wholesale disaster! A slightly pathetic and definitely
wasteful philosophy certainly.

In this same vein, a striking contrast was apparent in
the early stages of the Second World War. France and
Great Britain faced Germany under approximately similar
conditions. Before Hitler's hordes had even begun their
dastardly march, most of the French nation was already
defeated by clever German propaganda. The actual battle
of France was almost a mere "follow-through". On the
other hand, the British, led by Sir Winston, rejected defeat
in commendable style, fought the Battle of Britain certain
of their eventual success, and halted Adolph's war machine
in its tracks. It was as much a mental victory as a physical
one.

So you see that fatalism and defeatism reap their
plunder in everyday life as well as in times of bitter crisis.
Unfortunately, the fault lies usually with the victim, for
it was he who ascribed the qualities of the invincible to that
which did not warrant it.

Finally, as a parting gesture, allow me to thrust upon
you a thought-provoking suggestion. I believe that you
would be doing yourself a definite favour in future if you

4 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

would remember to evaluate objectively any issue before
you decide to toss in the sponge. The results will probably
be shocking!

Working on the time-proven assumption that many
minds are better than a few, the editors of the Record
would really welcome all letters of suggestion and construc-
tive criticism from any of our three thousand addicted
readers.

J. W. LANGMUIR ('06-'07)

The death on September 16 of Colonel John Langmuir
removed one of the most faithful workers for T.C.S. in the
past twenty years. John Langmuir became a member of
the Governing Body in 1933 and he succeeded Mr. R. C. H.
Cassels as Secretary of the Board in 1937. In those days
the Secretary did much of the work which the Chairman
and the Executive Committee do today. For thirteen years
he carried this heavy load and when Mr. G. B. Strathy re-
signed as Chairman of the Board he succeeded him and
remained as Chairman until January 1952. Thus for sixteen
years, and throughout the difficult war years. Colonel Lang-
muir acted as Secretary, as Chairman and Secretary, and
as Chairman of the Governing Body, shouldering respon-
sibilities and burdens for T.C.S. seldom borne by one man.

In 1937, under Mr. Cassels' leadership, the School was
rejoicing in completely new buildings but the debt had been
a staggering one. We had been saved from bankruptcy by
the magnificent generosity of Mr. Britton Osier and by the
whole-hearted response of the Governors and other friends,
organized by Mr. Cassels and Mr. Jellett. But we still had
a bonded indebtedness and when Colonel Langmuir suc-
ceeded to the Secretaryship he directed the clearing off of
this heavy obligation. Then came the memorable seventy-
fifth anniversary reunion at the School in 1940 which seemed

TRINITY CX)Li,EGE SCHOOL RECORD 5

to be a turning point in our story. It was during Colonel
Langmuir's term of office that Petry House was recon-
structed into two masters' apartments, the Hospital was
completely re-built, the Farm house re-modelled and recon-
structed. Then came the wonderful gift by Mr. George Mc-
Cullagh of the Peter Campbell Memorial Rink, and the Hugh
Russel Memorial Tuck building given by Mr. and Mrs. Blair
Russel. Finally the Memorial Fund, instituted at the end
of the war and directed by Mr. Charles Burns, enabled us
to build the beautiful Chapel. Colonel Langmuir was Chair-
man or Secretary or both during these all-important years
and he gave himself unsparingly to all these undertakings.
No man could have been more generous of his time, no one
could have been more painstaking, more wise and calm in
his approach to the many problems which confronted him.
In all the multifarious matters which need attention at a
boarding school from day to day he was patience personified
and always a wise and sympathetic counsellor.

We remember his many visits to the School, the days
he spent walking about the property and examining the
buildings, the very courteous and pleasing way he met the
masters and many employees, the hours he gave in his office
in Toronto to School business and discussions with repre-
sentatives of the School, the plans he made for future
development; in all these and many other ways Colonel
Langmuir gave complete and wholehearted service to his
old School and we shall always be in his debt.

Before he retired in 1949 he was General Manager of
the Toronto General Trusts Corporation, and he had been
President of the Toronto branch of the Red Cross Society
during the Second World War. His Majesty the King ap-
pointed him a member of the Order of the British Empire
for his many contributions to the war effort.

In the First World War he went overseas in 1915 with
the Eaton Machine Gun battery of the Queen's Own Rifles.
A year later he transferred to the Royal Flying Corps, see-
ing much action in those early days of flying. After the

Q TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

war he continued his deep interest in the Queen's Own, suc-
ceeding to the Command in 1930.

When he retired to Brockville he continued to take a
most active interest in community affairs, being elected
President of the Kiwanis Club and supporting the work of
the First Presbyterian Church in every way. He was Presi-
dent of the St. Lawrence Engine Company and General
Manager of the Universal Engine Company. His son, J.
W. C. Langmuir ('35-'40) was elected Mayor of Brockville.

T.C.S. has lost one of its most devoted sons but all
who knew John Langmuir will seldom think of the School
or walk about the property without vividly realizing what a
large part of his heart was in Port Hope.

AIR MARSHAL W. A. BISHOP, V.C.

Billy Bishop died on September 11 after a long illness
but his fame as a flyer in the First World War will never
die. Those were the days of open cockpits, no parachutes,
one engine, and a machine gun which often jammed. Some-
how Billy Bishop became part of the elements and like an
eagle he swooped unerringly on his prey. He was the best
fighter pilot in all the Commonwealth forces, shooting down
seventy-two planes. He won the highest awards — the V.C,
the D.S.O., the M.C. were presented to him at one investiture
by King George V, and he had already won the D.F.C. In
the Second World War he was appointed Director of Re-
cruiting for the R.C.A.F. and he played a vital part in the
air training plan.

He was elected a member of the Governing Body in
1940 and remained on the Board until 1954 when ill health
forced him to resign. Before the war he flew to the School
to take the salute at an Inspection of the Cadet Corps and
in his speech to the boys he commented on the fact that
the T.C.S. Corps was the first in the Empire to be affiliated
with an Air Force Unit. He also mentioned his concern
over the conditions he found in Germany and told us we
should be prepared for trouble.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 7

No one who knew him will ever forget Billy Bishop
or his amazing skill and bravery as a fighter pilot. The
School will always be indebted to him for his interest in
our welfare, and the inspiration he gave to young flying
men.

G. S. O'BRIAN ('07-'12)

It is difficult for one who knew Geoff O'Brian most
of his life to write of him without appearing to exaggerate,
for there could be few men of his generation who had such
an instinctive ability to inspire friendship and admiration.
He was a man's man, extremely good company and always
getting his teeth into some interesting problem. He had
definite ideas and spoke his mind but never in a way to
offend or disturb people. And always one knew that his
eyes were on the horizon, over the hills, and that a great
purpose was the mainspring of his life.

He came to T.C.S. as a young boy of twelve in 1907 and
after five years he was Head Boy. Entering the University
of Toronto he did well in his courses and took an active
interest in the militia. On the outbreak of war in 1914 he
volunteered immediately and went overseas as a Lieutenant
in command of the University of Toronto platoon of the
Second Division, Cyclists Corps. In the winter of 1916 he
joined the Royal Flying Corps, seeing much service in
France and as a Ferry Pilot. He was awarded the Air Force
Cross late in 1916. Returning to Canada, he was given
command of the training squadron at Deseronto, a post
formerly held by British officers.

In 1919 he entered Osgoode Hall and after graduation
practised law until 1929 when flying called to him again.
Joining the deHaviland Aircraft Company he became a test
pilot and later a director of the company. He was the first
man to fly solo from Toronto to Winnipeg and established
a record by flying to Edmonton from Toronto, two thousand
air miles in twenty hours. He also flew as a bush pilot in
Northern Ontario and Quebec.

8 TRINITY CX>Li.EGE SCHOOL. RECORD

In 1932 he organized the first R.C.A.F. reserve squadron,
the City of Toronto Squadron, the unit with which the
T.C.S. Cadet Corps became affiliated in 1936. For some
years he was on the staff of St. Andrew's College, becoming
Head of the Lower School, but in 1939 when the Second
World War broke out he offered his services at once.

During the 1939-1945 war Geoff O'Brian held many
important commands and contributed in no small measure
to the success of the Commonwealth Air Training plan. In
London, Ontario, he commanded the 114th Bomber Squa-
dron, he organized the ground school at Trenton, he took
over the No. 1 Training Centre at Eglinton where his knowl-
edge and skill were invaluable. Later he was posted over-
seas, to Bournemouth, England, and at the end of the war
he was in command of the Rockcliffe Station. It is said
that Geoff met more than half of all the Canadian flying
crews in the war, and he always made a deep impression
on all under his command. Geoff rose in rank from Squadron
Leader to Wing Commander to Group Captain to Air Com-
modore and in 1946 he was appointed by His Majesty a
Commander of the Order of the British Empire. But rank
and decorations meant little to Geoff O'Brian : it was always
the man who counted.

After the war he was appointed director of Cadet Train-
ing in the Ontario Department of Education and his en-
thusiasm and initiative inspired many schools to continue
and vastly improve this important branch of their work.
He wrote and printed a series of biographical sketches of
great men which influenced all who read them. During these
years he attended several T.C.S. Cadet Inspections and in
May 1946 he took the salute. On that occasion he remarked
on the deep pleasure it gave him to see the boys of his old
School so well trained and to know they were affiliated
with the Air Force.

Geoff retired only a few years ago and built a country
home near Bobcaygeon, Ontario, close to his family's sum-
mer cottage where he had spent many happy holidays. He

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

took an active interest in the affairs of the community and
especially the Anglican church.

In 1950 he was elected a member of the Governing
Body in recognition of his distinguished service in the Air
Force and his devotion to the School.

A year ago last June he and his wife came down for
Speech Day and after he returned he wrote to say that
he had relived some of the happiest days of his life and
would never forget the joy it gave him to experience the
"feel" of the School so intimately.

He died on September 13 after a heart attack and
was buried in Bobcaygeon on September 15 with full Air
Force honours.

The motto of the Air Force, "Per Ardua ad Astra,"
will always characterize Geoff O'Brian, but the many
hundreds who knew him closely will remember so clearly
the warmth of his friendship, his encouragement, his good
humour and his high ideals.

TRINITY COULEGE SCHOOL. RECORD

THE BIBLE

On Sunday, September 22, Canon Crump addressed the
School at evening chapel. He spoke about the place the
Bible should have in one's life. For the past twenty-five
years, he has been trying to further the use of the Bible in
the School Curriculum. He quoted a parable typifying the
proper attitude to take towards the Bible.

A father, returning from a long voyage, brought home
an ancient chest. It was first put in the boys' room, where
it was used for odds and ends. Eventually, it was put in the
basement, where it was left to gather dust. There is stayed
for many years, until one day, one of the sons returned with
his bride. She asked for the old chest to take to their new
home, discovering soon afterwards, however, that it was
a priceless antique. Instead of selling it, she made it the
centre of the household, and had the home built around it.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD H

The Bible may be compared to the chest, for it is indeed
the world's greatest antique. Often neglected and let gather
dust, it is only brought out when the minister pays a visit.
This is a wrong attitude to take. As in the case of the
young bride, one's life should be built around it, for it
supplies answers to daily problems. It contains the very
essence of life.

At Canon Crump's church in Calgary, every bride is
given a Bible and the advice "to read a few verses every
day." The Canon gave the same advice to the boys of our
School. Every boy should centre his daily living around
the Bible. It will provide a firm foundation for true, Chris-
tian character.

THE ANGELS

On Sunday, September 29, Canon Lawrence spoke to
us about the significance of the words of Psalm 91, verse 2,
"He shall give His angels charge over thee, to keep thee
in thy ways."

St. Paul wrote in one of his Epistles that we should
not give all our attention to the parts of the Christian
faith which please us most. Instead, we should plan our
mstruction so as to leave out nothing necessary for salvation.

From this came our planned calendar of feast days,
Christmas, Easter, and so on. It is hard to say when the
day for remembering angels was set aside. Besides this
day, we remember them at various other times such as
Holy Communion, Christmas, and Easter. Canon Lawrence
also stressed the fact that Christ Himself believed in the
reality of angels. For example, during the night of Christ's
capture at Gethsemane, He spoke of twelve legions of angels
that could come at His command to rescue Him. We were
also reminded of the parable of the shepherd and the lost
sheep. The Canon drew a parallel by showing the happiness
of the angels upon the redemption of one strayed human
being.

12 TRINITY CX)LLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

So it is at this time of year that we remember the
angels and, what is most important, the fact that they have
charge over us.

SERVICE OF DEDICATION

On Sunday, September 30, at noon, a private service
was held in the Chapel at which the two gallery windows
were dedicated in memory of Donald William McLaren ('20-
'29) and Squadron Leader Robert Duncan McLaren ('28-
'34 ) . The windows were given by Mrs. Duncan McLaren
and designed and executed by Miss Yvonne Williams of To-
ronto. They depict the Holy Family, Mary, Joseph and
the Baby in one, and Mary, Joseph and the young Boy in
another. In the north window may also be seen a small
figure of a young man in civilian clothes and in the south
window a figure of an Air Force pilot.

Donald McLaren died from a sudden illness in August
1929: Bob McLaren had been studying aeronautics in Eng-
land before the war and had joined the Air Force on the
outbreak of hostilities. He instructed in Canada for two
years and then returned to England where he was attached
to a special Meteorological Flight. He took part in many
hazardous missions and was awarded the D.F.C. for dis-
tinguished and gallant service. He was killed in action on
February 27, 1945, while on duty over Germany.

The School feels most privileged to have these lovely
windows.

THE CHOIR

The newly organized choir has already made a favour-
able impression while fulfilling its most important function,
that of leading the singing in the Chapel Services.

Only seven of the Senior Boys returned in September.
Seventeen of the many volunteers have been selected to
fill the vacancies.

Twelves trebles have also been added to replace others
who have moved up to the Senior School.

R. T. Hall has been appoointed Head Choir Boy.

FLYING SCHOLARSHIPS

T. R. Derry and R. J. Austin were selected last June to
take Flying Scholarships during the summer under the
plan sponsored by the Air Cadet League of Canada and the
R.C.A.F.

Both Cadets took their flying training at the Toronto
Flying Club during July. Austin and Derry passed the flying
tests and ground school exams, Derry being selected by
the Flying Club to represent the club in the competition for
the Tudhope Trophy.

1^ TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

The top candidate in each Flying Club in Canada is
being re-tested by one examiner in a flying test. The final
result of the test will be added to the ground school results
in the ratio of 75 percent for flying and 25 percent for
ground exams, to arrive at the final figure for the Tudhope
Trophy.

Derry is the first T.C.S. boy who has been selected for
competition in this trophy. The result will not be known
until Christmas.

THE OLD BOYS' WEEK-END — THANKSGIVING

The old familiar faces again invaded T.C.S. No resist-
ance was made against this invasion for it was indeed a
pleasure to recreate old times in our conversation.

The main attack staged by those returning to the
School for the week-end occurred on Monday afternoon.
It came in the shape of a slightly disorganized split T attack
which ran up four touchdowns against the Middleside foot-
ball squad who were held to two. Both the Middleside and
Bigside coaches opposed the School. The final minute of the
battle produced a touchdown pass for Middleside even
though the opposition numbered about 25 for the final play.
The average weight of the split T line of the Old Boys has
been calculated as 210 lbs. — the more credit to Middleside.

The Montreal crowd acted as the first line of battle. The
Lodge served as an unusually comfortable barracks. Soon
to follow up were representations bearing military standards
from U. of T., Queen's and Western. Many other colleges
were also represented at the call to arms.

Of great interest to spectators and also combatants
was the soccer game between the present members of the
School and a team of Old Boys and masters. The game
resulted in a 1-1 tie and hence a truce was made. There
was some question about the number playing for the Old
Boys, but it was made clear they were all 60-minute men
— the whole fifteen of them.

TRINITY COIiLEGE SCHOOL. RECORD I5

Now that appetites had reached a peak the field was
cleared and everyone reported to the mess hall. We thank
Mrs. Clark and her kitchen staff for the wonderful turkey
dinner. After dinner Ian Binnie led the School and visitors
in a sing song intermingled with school yells. Mr. Lawson
in person conducted a chorus of the School song which he
composed.

After the tea which followed the game, the bruised Old
Boys made a retreat and said goodbye to School for another
while. Meanwhile peace reigned again in the halls of T.C.S.

THE DRAMATIC SOCIETY

The Dramatic Society had ten remaining members to
begin this year's activities. The first meeting was held
purely for the purpose of electing an executive. Ian Binnie
was elected president and Colin McNairn vice-president.
Derry was elected secretary, Sutton treasurer, and Hyde
committee member. Mr. Angus Scott continued his post as
director. There was a large number of applications for
membership to the society and auditions were held. Sub-
sequently, Adam, Denny, Haslett, Kennish, Richards, and
Young were voted in as new members. We look forward to
another successful season.

THE LIBRARY

The Library was sorry to lose Mr. and Mrs. Dening at
the end of last term, but it has gained a competent and
enthusiastic supervisor in Mr. Gordon. We welcome, too,
Mrs. Ketchum, whose assistance already has proved inval-
uable. The new libarians have fitted in smoothly and many
new books have been placed on the shelves. It is hoped that
in the near future a shelf of good paper-backed novels will
be made available. The Library looks forward to a pleasant
and successful year.

THE MAGEE CUP RACE

The 1956 Magee Cup Race was run over last year's
course, with all new boys in the Third and Fourth Forms
competing. The race was won by P. T. Wurtele, who finished
the course in 11.22 minutes. Hassel, who was the first one
eligible for the Magee Cup competition, was credited with
ten points.

THE FRENCH CLUB

The French Club has started this year with a somewhat
bigger bang than usual as over forty enthusiastic French-
speakers assembled in the Guild Room for the first meeting
on September 21.

At this meeting David Cape was elected President and
Adam Saunders was elected Secretary. Mr. Bishop, as
usual, is doing a marvellous job as director of the club and
this year we are fortunate in having Mr. Massey with us
as well to assist with the large group.

To date there have been four meetings at which French
songs have been sung, French games played and generally
everyone has had a good time — in French. It is hoped that
another French play will be produced again this Christmas,
although Mr. Bishop is encumbered with the affairs of a
Housemaster. K the club continues as it has started, it is
sure to be a success.

THE SENIOR DEBATING SOCIETY

Elections for the Senior Debating Society were held
this year on October fifth. All posts were closely contested,
but the executive was finally set up with Allen i as Presi-
dent, Young as Vice-President and English as Secretary.

Everyone is looking forward to another successful
season, which will open with a home debate against Ridley
College after mid-term.

Dl€CFI\PHIES

Arbuthnott, J. R. ('55-'56). John "Gobblenob" Arbuthnott appeared
from 205 Brent last September amid a maze of encircling decorations.
That room with the "What Me Worry" picture on the door was
famous throughout the School. Before a cheering crowd of School
mates, John and the other "Princeton Puddle Jumpers" (Rog Proctor
and Dave Ross) showed their skill on the diving board. Of course,
John's serious winter sport was hockey. For his ability as a defense-
man he gained a full colour on the Bigside squad. He was a starting
end on the first football team but a knee injury, unfortunately, side-
lined him for the season. It should also be mentioned that "Arbo's"
picture appeared in "The Globe and Mail" for his feat in collecting
the largest piece of dough in the Pancake Toss. John is now at the
University of Manitoba taking Architecture. We wish you the best
of luck, "Gobblenob."

Beattie, J. P. ('52-'56). J. P. "Benny" Beattie came to us in 1952
from Selwyn House in Montreal. He often-times paced the library,
reminding us of its purpose. At other times we might suddenly see
a flash which served to remind us that the candid camera man was
nearby. Benny imported his Quebec French into the French Club
and also lent his talents to "Record" work. Not to be forgotten is
the part Benny contributed to the Choir. He won Littleside colours in
soccer and in his final year was a captain of a Rabbit hockey league
team. He completed his career at T.C.S. by serving as a House Officer.
At McGill now, Benny is taking an Arts Course, in which we wish
him all kinds of success.

Blake, K. A. ('52-'56). Ken was appointed a House Prefect in
his final year and helped greatly around the School with discipline
and the day to day problems that arise in the natural course of
events. He took an average interest in athletics, playing football in
the Middleside League and before that added his support to the
Soccer side. His chief contribution to the School however, was his
work on The Record. For two years he was head typist and carried
out this very arduous task with admirable efficiency. It was due
greatly to Ken's work, that the massive amounts of typing were

finished in tim? to meet the deadline. His quiet efficiency and steady
loliabihty will prove of great value to him, in all his undertakings.
All the best, Ken!

Bonnyrastlo, M, K. ('52-'56). Mike came to us from Oakwood
Collegiate in '52, and from the first moment he passed those Bethune
doors he did very well for himself. That fall he played Littleside foot-
ball and went on to play Rabbit league hockey. Many of his extra
hours were spent doing excellent work in the woodwork shop. Mike
also played Littleside cricket. Next autumn Mike was the captain
of the Littleside football team. He joined the Photographic Club at
Christmas and for the remaining years in the School he shot many
excellent pictures for "The Record." That winter Mike was a member
of the Junior Swimming team. The following year he played snap
for Bigside football, winning a half colour and made the Senior swim-
ming team.. In the Little Big Four swimming meet he came third
in the diving. He also became Vice-President of the Photographic
Society and Photographic Editor of "The Record." In Mike's final
year lie played Bigside football, getting a full colour. He was Presi-
dent of the Photographic Society and the Woodwork Club and also
Head Librarian. In swimming, Mike won the Little Big Four diving
competition and hence well earned his colour. On Speech Day, Mike
was awarded the Science Prize, the Poetry Prize and the Jubilee
Exhibition for Mathematics. For his good work while at the School,
Mike was appointed House Officer. Best of luck at Varsity, Mike,
and drop in for a visit some time soon.

Boughner, W. F. ('52-'56). For eight years through the sober halls
of T.C.S. walked this breezy Epicurian of note. Half of these well-
spent years were served in Boulden House. There Bill had a note-
v.orthy career, playing on four first teams, and captaining the cricket
team in his last year. He was announced the co-winner of the Paterson
Trophy in the same year. In '52 he entered the still more sober halls
of Brent House, and managed to play Littleside football, hockey,
gym and cricket of "fvill-colour" calibre. In tune with his nature he
became an enthusiastic trumpeter in the Cadet Band. Never of
monstrous physical proportions, the next year Bill again played foot-
ball and hockey for Littleside. This time he was captain and vice-
captain respectively. In the same year he advanced to a full colour
Middleside cricket player. In addition, he expanded his horizons by
writing Features for the Record. Bill played Middleside football and
hockey for the following and final two years, becoming vice-captain
of hockey. This home-stretch also saw Bill working for the Record,
a veteran bandsman, and a Sacristan. One of the more promising
members of the fifth form. Bill was appointed a House Officer in
the spring. One of his gi-eatest and most appreciated jobs last year
was as Tieasurer of The Pat Moss Club. Apparently Bill is continuing
his financial aspirations at the Royal Bank of Canada in London,
though he is keeping up his education at night school. All the best,
Bill!

Budg:e, P. J. ('52-'56). Peter came to Buulden House in 1949
and, after three years there, he joined the Senior School. As a New
Boy, he obtained Littleside colours in football, cricket and hockey
and was captain of the hockey team. The next year saw him on
Middleside hockey, co-captain and the most valuable player on the
Middleside football team. He then graduated to the first hockey team
for two years, as well as to the tennis team. He was on "The
Record" staff for four years, in the French club for two years and
in his last year he showed himself to be an excellent leader of the
band. He became a Brent House Prefect and fulfilled his job, as
such, very well. He plans to go into commerce at McGill and our
heartiest good wishes go with him.

Barns, H. M, ('51-'56). It is a most difficult task to write any-
thing that might be termed a brief biography about Mike. His field
of activity was decidedly vast. Hei'b launched his T.C.S. football
career by captaining the Littleside team in his Second Form year.
By his final year, Mike was vice-captain of Bigside and in this, his
third year on the team, he won a Distinction Cap. Switching to the
winter term we find that Mike was known both as a gymnast and a
hockey plaj'er. He gained his gym colours in Third Form and was
captain of the gym team the next year. In his final year Herb was
chosen as the best gymnast in the School. He also played Bigside
hockey for three years and won a well deserved Distinction Cap in
his final year. In Fifth Form Herb became a House Officer and Flight
Lieutenant in charge of Bethune Cadets. In '55-'56 Mike was associate
Head Prefect and C.O. of the Cadet Corps. On top of his duties in
the Cadet Corps, Mike also found time to play Bigside cricket in his
last two years. His name has been added to the list of winners of
the Bronze Medal, regarded as the top School award. In his final
year Mike also won the Grand Challenge Cup. This was the second
time he had received this award, while on Sports Day he set a new
record for the senior hurdles. During his time at the School, Mike
was a stage hand, a member of the Glee Club, the Record staff, the
entertainment committee and a Sacristan. Fi'om the day he entered
T.C.S. Mike showed that he was a going concern and in his last year
ho gave strong and aggressive leadership in most sides of School life.
He seemed always to be in good heart. All your many friends here
at T.C.S. wish you the best of luck at Cornell, Mike.

Campbell, A. M. ('52-'56). There are people whom it is a pleasure
to know, and there are people whom it is a privilege to know. Mac
was one of those extraordinary individuals whom it was both a real
pleasure and privilege to be acquainted with. His career at T.C.S.
has teen, and will be, described as a thorough success. As an athlete,
Mac was an extremely good one. In his two years at Boulden House,
he won four first team colours, football, hockey, gym, and cricket,
and captained their football team. Moving up to the Senior School
in '52, "Nosey" won Littleside colours in those same sports. The next

year Mac plunged directly to his Bigside football colour, and brought
hockey and cricket up to par the following year. In his last year Mac
captained Bigside football, winning the Most Valuable Player Award,
The Kicking and Catching Cup, and a Distinction Cap, and pulled
more than his weight on the Hockey First and Cricket Eleven. He
topped it al! off last Speech Day when he won the Jack Maynard
Trophy for leadership in athletics. But the athlete was only a part
of Mac Campbell. He was a member of the Choir for three years,
and a stagehand for the same. He was President of the Junior De-
bating Society in Fourth Form, Vice-President of the Senior Debating
Society in Sixth Form. One of the School's most formidable debaters,
Mac had the further distinction of being chosen to represent the
School as guest speaker at the annual meeting of the Toronto Ladies'
Gviild. He added another "first" when he became President of the
newly formed Pat Moss Club. In his last year he was President of
the Political Science Club, Secretary of the French Club, the Feature
Editor of the Record, an ardent warbler in the Glee Club, and a groaner
in the famed T.C.S. quartet. The really significant point is that Mac
did a tremendous job in each of these capacities. In Boulden House,
Mac was the co-winner of the Hamilton Bronze Medal, their most
valued award. In the early months of his Fifth Form year he was
made a House Officer, and last year was associate Head Prefect and
Bronze Medal winner. He handled each of these responsibilities with
dependability, efficiency, good-nature, and tact. As if all this wasn't
enough, Mac was a first class honour student, winning the Smith-
Cape Bursary entering his last year. But the most important aspect
of all was Mac, the person, one of the most genuinely liked and
respected fellows at T.C.S. Unobtrusive by nature, Mac's tremendous
vitality, perseverance. School spirit, and ability were outstanding in
an outstanding year, and we wish him every success in anything his
ambitions might carry him to. Eamus Nose!

Caryor, D. S. ('52-'56). After two years in Boulden House, where
he won his colours in football and hockey, "Herman" entered Brent
House in the fall of 1952. He immediately started his successful Senior
School career by winning his coloui-s in both Littleside football and
Littleside hockey and turned out for track in the spring. In his second
year he won colours on Middleside football and Littleside hockey,
and again ran for the track team in the spring. During his third
year Don played Bigside football in which he gained a half-team
colour and during the winter he won his colour in Middleside hockey.
He was appointed a member of the Pat Moss Club and was a member
of the French Club. In his final year Don won his full Bigside colour
in football and was awarded a Distinction Cap. He was elected co-
vice-captain of Middleside Hockey, and served as Flight-Sergeant
in the Cadet Corps. For these contributions to School life and his
qualities of leadership, Don was appointed a School Prefect. From
here he hopes to enter McGill. We wish him the best of luck in
the years ahead.

Chauvin, R. A. ('53-'56). Ralph Chauvin, more commonly known
as Chausse, entered Boulden House in 1950. In 1953 Ralph moved
to Brent House where, fortunately, he found the doorways sufficiently
high. During his years as a Brentite, Chausse won hockey colours
on Littleside, Middleside and Bigside. Some of his other extra-
curricular activities included the French Club, and "The Record" staff.
Ralph was another of the Quebec Frenchmen who lent his talents
to the circle of linguists organized by Mr. Bishop. To say that Ralph
was well liked would be a gross understatement. In addition to his
many friends at T.C.S., we have evidence that the females have a
great attraction for Chausse. Keep the curly locks combed, Ralph.
Switching to a serious vein, we wish you the best in your study of
medicine.

Cochrane, M. H. ('55-'56). Mike Cochrane was a member of the
famous four-manner on bottom flat Bethune. He began his T.C.S.
career by ably assisting Derek Drummond with the many duties
v;hich accompany the job of Bigside football manager. During the
winter term, Mike played on the basketball team where he hung
up his share of points. Mike also participated in Record work as
a sports writer. We congratulate him on his examination results
and send him our best wishes in his further studies at Western.

Colman, L. T. ('52-'56), "Sharpie" came to T.C.S. (Brent House)
from the Bahamas in the fall of 1952. He participated actively in
School activities right from the start. In his first year, Lionel played
Littleside soccer and was on the Junior swimming team. During the
following two years, he played on the Middleside soccer team. For
three seasons, Lionel continued as a first-rate swimmer, and in both
his Fifth and Sixth Form years, was a member of the first swimming
team. In his last two years. Sharpie's interests spread to other School
activities. In the Choir for two years, he supported it faithfully. He
also took part in the French Club, and the Photographic Society
where his photographic talent assisted the Record with some really
excellent photographs. Although we shall miss Sharpie, the School
can be sure that he will do well at Tilnity College (U. of T.) where
he is now studying. Best of luck, Lionel.

Connell, W. B. ('51-'56). Bruce arrived in Bethune after a year
in Boulden House. He was on Littleside football for two years,
winning a full colour in his second year. In these two years he was
also a member of the Junior Debating Society. In his last two years
he p'ayed on Middleside football where he gained his full colour. An
active member of "The Record" staff, he was also a member of the
San'.or Debating Society and in his final year, was made a House
Officer. Bruce is going to Queen's to study medicine where we wish
him every success.

Creery, P. A. ('SS-'SG). Although the "kid" wasn't too large
physically* he proved to be interested in athletics, obtaining his Little-
side and Middleside soccer colours. When the grand change to foot-
ball arrived, the kid took to the game with zest and proved to be a
capable player in the league. In the winter he played rabbit league
hockey every season. A first rate student throughout his career at
School, he did very well in his senior rnatric last June. He was a
member of the French club for two years, the political science club,
the electronics club and a member of the Record staff. For all his
efforts at the School, Phil was made a House Officer. We all wish
Phil good luck and know that he will succeed in whatever he under-
takes in the future.

Dalgeish, G. R. ('51-'56). "Dag" as he was best known, arrived
heie in the fall of 1951 with his goalie pads, which were as big as
he was. As an excellent citizen of Bethune House, he immediately
took part in a large number of School activities. His New Boy year
saw him win the highly coveted Magee Cup. Littleside hockey, foot-
ball and gym colours were also awarded to him and on Sports Day
of his first year he, along with the other members of the Junior
Bethune Relay, broke a record. We lost Dag to the natives of South
Africa in 1952-53 and for some time we wondered if we would ever
see him again. However, much to our delight, he returned in 1955
and, among other successes, was voted "the most improved cadet."
After winning Middleside football colours for two years, he obtained
a half first team colour in this sport. Bigside hockey colours also
followed Middleside colours and his remarkable I'ecord of yielding
only three games out of 30 in four years will always be remembered
in the T.C.S. hockey records. A Distinction Cap was awarded to him
for his outstanding job in the Bigside nets in his last year. He was
also a very helpful member- of the Pat Moss Club, and a member
of the Political Science Club. For his contributions to the School,
Dag was rewarded by being made a House Officer. We shall miss
him greatly and our best wishes are extended to him in his course
at McMaster.

De!a<'our, J. M. ('56). "Deux" popped into T.C.S. for the two
terms following the Christmas holidays of '55, entering Sixth Form
as a Bethunite. He was an ardent skier and soon came to be con-
sidered the best in the School. In the spring term, he held an interest
in track and field. However, owing to a slight injury, he was unable
to keep up his practising. John plans to go either to McGill or the
University of Toronto, to enter an Arts course. We wish him well
in his future undertakings.

Driimmond, D. A. ('52-'56). Four years ago, early in the month
of September, there was a great amount of barking outside the School.
Quickly, the doois of Bethune House opened, and, seeing his new
home, the "shaggy dog" entered, soon becoming one of the School's
most populai' boys. On the fields, "Shag's" great enthusiasm foi-

soccer soon found him a place on the Littleside soccer team in his
New Boy year. Not satisfied with soccer alone, "Shag" branched
out into other sports. In squash, he became the New Boy champion
and Junior runner-up, and later in the year became Junior runner-
up in tennis, also. In his second year at T.C.S., Derek played for the
first tennis team, and continued playing on that team for the next
two years. He played on the 1954 co-champion team of the Little
Big Four. He again played soccer, this time earning his Middleside
colour. In squash, "Shag" was the captain of the second team, and
sixth man on the Little Big Four championship team. He was also
the School's Junior squash champion. In his Fifth Form year, Derek
was a member of the Little Big Four championship squash team,
and was the Senior runner-up in the School tournament. In Montreal,
he won the "under 18" Quebec Squash Tournament, and repeated his
performance the following year. He was also the runner-up in Senior
tennis. In cricket, "Shag" was the Bigside wicket-keeper, and earned
his exti'a colour. Derek's final year at T.C.S. was certainly his big
year. He again played on the tennis team and was captain of the
squash team. He proved to be an excellent manager for the School's
Little Big Four co-champion football team. In squash, he again won
the "under 18" Quebec Squash Tournament, and was a semi-finalist
in both the Ontario Junior Squash and Canadian Junior Squash
Tournaments. Derek took an active part in many other School
activities besides sports. In the Chapel, he was both a Sacristan and
a Crucifer. He was also a member of the Glee Club. In his Sixth
Form year, Derek played an important part in our Cadet Inspection.
Working hard for The Record, he made an excellent Sports Editor
during his tenure of office. For Derek's many accomplishments while
at School, he was rewarded with the well-earned position of School
Prefect. We v^ish him the best of luck in whatever the future holds
for him.

Dunlap, D. L. C. ('52-'56). Coming to T.C.S. in the fall of 1948,
Dave soon proved to be an e.xcellent sportsman, and a good student.
Beginning his career in Boulden House, he was soon made a "C-
dormer." Dave was also awarded colours in soccer, football, hockey
and gym. Entering the Senior School in 1952, he continued as a
superb athlete. He won full colours in Littleside, Middleside and
Bigside football. Dave also won, during his four years in the Senior
School, colours in Middleside and Bigside hockey, and Littleside and
Middleside colours in gym. In the Oxford cup, he got Middleside
colours once, and half colours twice. In his second year, Dave was
elected secretary of the Junior Debating Society, and in his Fifth
Form year, secretary of the Pat Moss Club. He also won a flying
scholarship in his third year. For his many achievements, Dave was
appointed a House Officer after Christmas. In his Sixth Form year,
he was a Choir member, a Sacristan, Head Librarian, and Literary
Editor of the Record. He was also secretary of the Senior Debating
Society, an officer of the Cadet Corps, and a School Prefect, a well-
deserved honour. Dave is now at Queen's, taking a course in medicine.
After Speech Day he was given an Award of Merit for his strength
of character and contributions to School life. The boys of the School
confidently predict a fine career ahead of him.

Eaton, R. F. ('51 -'56). Robbie entered Bethune House in 1952
after a year in Boulden House. He joined in many athletic activities
including Littleside and Middleside football, in both of which he
received colours. H>? played basketball, winning- a Middleside colour
in 1955 and an extra Bigside colour in his Sixth Form year. At the
same time he was a valuable member of the swimming team where
he obtained a half Bigside colour. Bob was a French Club member
as well as a Chorister and Glee Club member. Although he appeared
quiet and unobtrusive, Bob's witty and popular House Notes for "The
Record" showed an alert and lively sense of humour. For his many
contributions to School life "Skreet" was made a House Officer. Our
best wishes follow him to McGill where he is taking a General Arts
course.

Forrie, R. K. ('51-'56). After a year in Boulden House "Beebes"
entered Bethune House in the fall of 1951. In his New Boy year he
won his Littleside colour in football and was a member of the swim-
ming team. From there he advanced to Middleside football and gained
his Middleside colour in swimming. During his third year Bob won
his full Bigside colours in both football and swimming and was a
member of a strong Intermediate track team of that spring. He also
joined "The Record" staff and became a member of the Choir and
Glee Club. He repeated all these accomplishments a year later in
his Fifth Form year and won the Daykin Cup for the highest
aggregate in the Senior events on Sports Day. As captain of the
track team, he competed in the Hamilton relays. Because of his fine
contribution to the School, Bob was made a House Officer that spiing
and was also on the executive of the first Pat Moss Club and a
member of the debating team. In his last year Bob was appointed
a School Prefect early in the fall and he went on to become co-vice-
captain of our championship football team, and won his full colours
for the third year in a row. He was awarded a football Distinction
Cap for his fine play in the line. During the winter he captained
the swimming team, was awarded a Distinction Cap, receiving the
Pat Osier Cup as the Best Swimmer. In track Bob captained the
team, tied for the Daykin Cup and set a record in the senior 100
yard dash of 10.1 seconds. He was also School News editor of "The
Record," and a member of the Political Science Club. On Speech Day,
he was awarded the Jim McMullen Memoiial Trophy, special Choir
prize and was runner-up for the Grand Challenge Cup. In the Cadet
Corps, Bob served as a Flight Lieutenant. After doing so well here,
we know that Bob will be successful in Meds at the U. of T. and
our best wishes for success go with him.

FitzGerald, D. J. V. ('55-'56). "Fitz" came to us in Sixth Form
last year and was very popular in his one year at T.C.S., airiving
by way of Stowe School in England. An avid reader with a boundless
enthusiasm for literature, he was at his best in a lively dinner table
conver.sation. It was natuial, therefore, to find him a member of "The
Record" staff and he received a prize for one of his excellent con-

tribiitions to "The Record." He was also a member of the Debating
Society and the Political Science Club. An actor with a natural
flair, he joined the Dramatic Society and took part in both the
Christmas and the Easter plays. In the sports world, Fitz played
Middleside league football and Rabbit league hockey. This year Fitz
is taking Arts at the University of British Columbia where our good
wishes follow him.

Gilbert, J. N. ('53-'56). In the fall of 1953 "Dicky" left his home
town of Stamford, Connecticut, and headed north across the border
to T.C.S. He entered Brent House in his New Boy year and played
Littleside "B" football. He played on the junior basketball team and
in the spring turned his back on baseball, not without some mis-
givings, and won his colours in Littleside cricket. In his second and
Fifth Form year, John won his colours in Middleside football and
basketball in the sporting theatre, and he was a member of the Senior
Debating Society, taking part in inter-school debates. In his last year
John was elected vice-captain of the Senior basketball team and won
his full Bigside colour in that sport. He was also a member of the
Senior Debating team, Political Science Club, Choir and Glee club,
and was co-sports editor of "The Record" as well as a Sacristan. As
a result, John was appointed a House Officer. He is furthering his
education at the University of Pennsylvania in Business where we
wish him the best of luck and hope he returns to see us soon.

Ham, T. J. ('53-'56). In 1952 T. J. ("Hammie") Ham entered
what I shall call the J.S. (at the risk of incurring the wrath of the
present day inhabitants of Boulden House). All those who know
Trevor realize how much he enjoys singing. In the J.S. Hammie
added his touch to the Choir and there he had a chance to practice
his famous harmony. He also gained football colours in this section
of the School before entering the ranks of S.S. New Boys. As a
member of last year's Bombside (Middleside) squad, Trevoi' gained
extra colours. Of course when it came to gym, Ham and Egg (his
room-mate) were really tops. For two years running Hammie won
his Bigside gym colour. Hammie, the dramatist, performed equally
well in maid's skirts and in an army uniform. The first part mentioned
was naturally portrayed in his earlier years in the dramatic society.
In his final year as an actor Trevor, now treasurer of the society,
won an acting prize for his contribution to Journey's End as Lieutenant
Osborne. Trevor was also a member of the Photographic Club and a
Sacristan. He well deserved the post of House Prefect which he
received in his final year. Hammie is now at Trinity College taking
Medicine. We feel sure he is bound to meet with success.

Hyland. W. A. H. ('52-'56). Bill first made his mark at T.C.S.
in Boultien House where he spent two years. During his stay there
he won his colours in football, hockey, gym and cricket. He entered
Brent House in September, 1952, and started out on the right foot
by winning his Littleside coloius in football, hockey, gym and cricket
during the School year. Next autumn Bill played Middleside football
and hockey in the winter, winning an extra colour and a full colour
respectively. He also won an extra Bigside colour in gym, and during
the spring, an extra Bigside colour in cricket. He also added the Junior
Aggregate on Sports Day. Bill was outstanding in athletics during
his third year at the School. He played on the Bigside football, hockey,
gym, and cricket teams, winning full colours in football, gym and
cricket, and extra colours in hockey. That year, he was also runner-
up for the Grand Challenge Cup and a member of the Senior De-
bating and Political Science Clubs. For all his achievements he was
appointed a House Officer that winter. Early in his Sixth Form year,
Bill was appointed a School Prefect for his accomplishments in the
School and his leadership qualities. He again won full colours on
Bigside football despite a knee injury which kept him out of all the
exhibition games, and prevented him from playing hockey. In the
spiing, however. Bill again won a full colovu- in cricket. He also tied
lor the Daykin Cup in the Senior events on Sports Day, setting a
new record in the discus. In the Cadet Corps, he was a Flight-
Lieutenant, and was the Officer Commanding the Bi'ent House
squadron. Bill has entered an Arts course at Western University
where we wish him all the best in his future endeavours.

Irwin, S. Van E. ('53-'56). "Eggy" entered Bethune House in
1953, after two years in Boulden House, where, among other accomp-
lishments, he was Grand Champion in track and field. In his New
Boy year he won his Littleside football colour and his Middleside
gym colour. In his second year he won Middleside football. Middle-
side basketball as well as Bigside Gym colours. Eggy was appointed
a House Officer in his final year in which he also served as a member
of "The Record" staff and the Debating Society. Steve was the
leading exponent of track and field during his time at T.C.S. As a
result of his consistent training and hard work he was Junior and
Intermediate Track Champion, and broke seven records. We wish
him the best of luck at U. of T. where he is studying architecture.

Jenkins, W. A. K. (•52-'56). "Chico" came to Bethune House in
tlie fall of '52, soon starting his career at T.C.S. by winning first,
his Littleside colours in football and in the winter term, half first team
colours in swimming. In the spring, Bill tuined out for track,
equalling the Intermediate hic,h-jump record of 5' 3". He also ran for
the Intermediate track team in the U.C.C. relays. As a "second year,"
Bill won Middle.side football colours and, in swimming, full Bigside

colours. In track, he was a member of the Intermediate relay team
which set a record at the U.C.C. relays. "Chico" also set a new In-
termediate high-jump record of 5' 4". In his second year, Bill was
also a member of the Choir and the Junior Debating Society. In his
third year at T.C.S., he won full Bigside colours in football and swim-
ming. He was a member of the 880 yard House relay team which
set a new record on Sports Day. He also won the Senior High Jump.
In addition, he was a member of the Senior Debating Society, a
Sacristan, a stage hand, and a member of the Past Moss Ski Club.
Because of his contributions to the School, he was appointed a House
Officer that spring. Bill was made a School Prefect early in his final
year and went on to win his full Bigside colours and Distinction Caps
ill football and swimming, being appointed vice-captain of the swim-
ming team. He was also a member of the Debating Society, a member
of the Choir and a Crucifer. Serving as a flight lieutenant in the
Cadet Corps, he won the challenge trophy as best cadet and was
head of victorious Bethune House on Inspection Day. Bill is headed
for Arts at the University of Western Ontario where we wish him
the best of luck in his future endeavours.

Kerr, D. W. ('aS-'SG). "Duke" cannonballed into T.C.S. in the
autumn of '55 along with the three other members of the infamous
Bethune House bottom flat four manner. In time he established a
widespread notoriety which was a characteristic of this unique four-
some. During his brief stay at T.C.S. , he managed to get his Middle-
side colours in basketball and win his Bronze Medal in life-saving.
Don also made several worthwhile contributions to The Record. After
leaving T.C.S., "Duke" ricocheted into Carleton College in Ottawa
where he is taking a General Arts Course at present. Best of luck,
Duke.

Labatt, R. H. C. ('52-'56). Robin came straight to the Senior
School in '52, and from the first he took a keen interest in School
life. In his final year his participation in the Photographic Club,
Glee Club, Debating Society and Choir was rewarded by his appoint-
ment as a House Officer. Active also in other phases of School life,
he received colours in second team football and hockey as well as a
coaching award. A successful year completed, we wish him success
in his University life. Robin is now at Waterloo College and will
likely go on to Western after this year.

LeMoine, A. G. ('58-'56). Tony LeMoine, better known as "Leo,"
joined T.C.S. in September, 1953, when he became a member of Brent
House. In his first year at the School, Tony was awarded extra
colours in Littleside football. In the winter term, he did gym, again
earning Littleside colours. Upon returning to Port Hope for his
Fifth Form year, Tony went one step further, both in football and

gym. He played on the Middleside "B" squad, and competed on the
Middleside gym team. During his third and final year at T.C.S., he
could not play football, but managed to take an active part in it by
assuming the job of football manager for our Middleside team. Tony
was also in charge of Middleside league equipment. In his last two
years, he was a member of the French Club and became a prominent
member of the Debating Society. Part way through the year, Tony
was appointed a House Officer, and aided the School greatly. When
Speech Day came, he was awarded the VIB Religious Knowledge
prize. The School wishes him all the best in his future studies.

Little, J. E. ('53-*56). John "Frenchie" Little came to T.C.S.
from Quebec in 1953 and joined the ranks of Brent House. During
his three years at the School, he was "an athlete formidable" and in
his last year was captain of Middleside football and hockey. He also
was an expert skier, and his face was a familiar one on the ski trails
both here and around Quebec. John played the drums, first in the
Cadet band, secondly in the famous School orchestra and he was
also one of the few who remembered how to play "God Save the
Queen" on Inspection Day. But the rhythm in him really became
apparent at his informal jam sessions in the hall along with maestro
Adam Saunders on the piano. Because of his all-round abilities, he
became a House Prefect. Now he is taking Mechanical Engineering
at McGill and is thinking of going into the lumbering business where
we are sure he will do well. The very best of luck, John.

Long, E. A. ('52-'56). Eddie came to us from Forest Hill Collegiate
in 1952, becoming a member of Brent House. In Ed's New Boy year,
he won full colours in both Littleside football and Middleside hockey.
He joined the Junior Debating Society, in which he participated
actively for two years. In his second year, Eddie was unable to play
football owing to an operation. Instead, he became manager of the
Middleside team. Returning to sports in the winter term, however,
he played for the Bigside hockey team, earning half-colours. That
year, Ed joined the Choir, and many times the School heard his
excellent tenor voice in solos during special Chapel services. For his
last two years, he held the position of Head Choir Boy. In Ed's Fifth
Form year, he played on two Bigside teams, getting colours in both
hockey and football. He was also on the Executive of the Pat Moss
Ski Club. Towards the end of the j'ear, he was appointed a House
Officer. During his last year at T.C.S., Eddie was a School Prefect,
again played on Bigside football and hockey, this time awarded
Distinction Caps in both and elected captain of the hockey team.
Piominent in track and field, he holds the School's high jump record.
He was also a typist foi- The Record, a stage-hand, and a member of
the Glee Club. In the Chapel, he was both a Crucifer and a Sacristan.
As a member of the famous trio (formerly a quartet), he would
often take part in enteitaining the School at vaiiety nights and even
at School dances. The entiie School sends best wishes, Ed.

XII

McQuarrie, D. I, ('55-'56). "Pop McQuartz" came to us in the
fall of '55 and he became a member of the famous Middle flat museum
in Bi'ent House run by John. He became a member of the Sixth Form
and a keen supporter of the Political Science Club. As a result of
his experience gained there, some very long and serious discussions
were heard emanating from his table during the evening meal. We
wish Ian every success in his future courses at University.

Meighen, M. A. ('53-'56). Mike's three years in Brent House are
a story of ever-increasing success. He won an Entrance Scholarship
and kept up a high standard of work throughout his years at T.C.S.
In his first year he was kept busy receiving Littleside colours in
soccer, hockey, gym, and cricket, and to top his New Boy year,
he won the Arnold Massey Prize, awarded to the winner of the New
Boy squash tournament. His second year was a repeat performance,
only one step higher on the ladder. He gained colours in Middleside
soccer and squash and was captain of Middleside cricket. As a result
Mike won the Second Year Challenge Trophy. In his last year, Mike
stood on the top rvmg of the ladder in every way. To start the year
off, he was appointed a Sacristan, and President of the Senior De-
bating Society, the Dramatic Society and the French Club. He played
Middleside football, and received colours in Bigside squash, where he
was particularly outstanding, being runner-up in the senior squash
tournament and bringing honour to the School by placing second in
the Quebec under 18 squash tournament. Mike also won colours on
Bigside cricket. Not to be found lacking in any field, Mike became a
sergeant in the Cadet Corps. As a successful finish to a successful year,
Speech Day saw Mike, long since made a House Prefect, walk off with
the Public Speaking Prize, the oral French Prize and the Butterfield
Trophy. He plans eventually to go to McGill to study law, but this
year he is at the University of Geneva where, besides becoming an
accomplished linguist, he will most certainly fill the slopes with his
cry of "track" or the appropriate French equivalent. So leaves another
Old Boy the School is proud to remember. Good luck, Art!

Mitchell, D. C. M. ('52-'56). "Mitch" came from Narwich Nest,
Bermuda, in 1952 and entered Bethune House. He showed great in-
terest in soccer, obtaining Littleside colours in his second year and
going on in Fifth Form to gain a well deserved place as captain of
Middleside. His powerful back-stroke soon earned him a place on
the swimming team, in which he won a half Bigside colour in his
Sixth Form season; for two years he was also a valuable player on
Middleside cricket. Mitch's extra-curricular activities included en-
thusiastic membership in the Junior Debating Society and the French
Club. Now at McGill taking General Arts, Mitch intends to enter a
business career, in which we wish him the greatest success.

XIII

Mit<'heU, I. S. M. ('51-'56), "Mitch" was first seen entering
Bethune House in the fall of '51. Right from the start he became
very active in spoils. In his first year, when only in Second Form,
he gained his full Middleside colours in soccer, swimming, and cricket.
In his Third Form year "Mitch" advanced to earn his half first team
colour in soccer, his Middleside colour again in swimming and a place
on the Bigside cricket team. In his Fourth Form year Ian continued
his spectacular career. In this year he was on Bigside soccer, swim-
ming and cricket, being elected to the vice-captaincy of the latter.
In Fifth Form "Mitch" was vice-captain of soccer, captain of cricket
and a member of the second team squash. In his final year at T.C.S.
Ian achieved his full Middleside football colours, a Distinction Cap in
cricket and earned his full Bigside colours in squash. "Mitch" was
always a great asset to the School and we are sorry to see him go.
We will miss his characteristic laugh and wonderful sense of humour.
He is at Western University this year and we wish him the best of
luck, trusting he will withstand the onslaught of the opposite sex,
and still have time to return for an occasional visit!

Nanton, A. A. ('51-'56). "Ton" came from the U.S.A. to enter
Boulden House under the new 1947 import quota and spent his first
two years becoming big for the football team. The next year he
played on the J.S. first team where he was awarded his colours
for football. In the fall of '51 after three successful years in the
J.S., Tony moved up a conference to the Senior School where he
and his football made a home in top dorm Bethune and Second Form.
The following year he received his full colours on Middleside foot-
ball. In '53 "Ton" moved up a league again and helped anchor down
the Trinity line in a successful Bigside season for which he received
full colours. The next fall found him an outstanding member of a
Championship team. For his virtual sixty minute work in each Little
Big Four game he was again awarded his full colours and a Distinction
Cap. His active participation in Sports Day events was climaxed
with a record distance in the shot put. He was a keen member of
The Record staff and the Debating Society of '56. "Ton" was also
one of the most popular and likeable members of the Sixth Form
and for all his obvious attributes he was made a School Prefect. Our
best wishes in all your undertakings, Tony.

Noble, W. J. ('52-'56). Bill Noble ended a very full four year
career at T.C.S. as a Hou.se Officer. In his New Boy year in the
Senior School, he was a Littleside standout in all three major sports
and was captain of both Littleside "B" football and Littleside cricket.
To top this off, he won the Margaret Ketchum Prize. Bill was, of
course, a familiar figure to us all on the basketball floor. He gained
extra colours in this spoil both on Middleside and Bigside. Again in
the field of sport, "Knobs" second year in the S.S. saw him as vice-

XIV

captain of Middleside cricket. Bill was a member of the Political
Science Club, a Sacristan, a member of The Record and he was com-
monly known to all in dramatics as "The Colonel". We send our best
wishes. Bill, in your further studies at McGill.

Outerbridge, D, R. (•54-*56). Last June, Cy left T.C.S. after two
years in Bethune House. Diu'ing this time, he became co-winner of
the First-and Second-Year Challenge Trophies. A House Officer in
his Sixth Form year, he was in charge of maintenance of our Ski
Camp, and was later on the Inspection Day Dance Committee.
Scholastically, he was accepted for McGill on his Junior Matric,
winning the Spanish Prize in Fifth Form. It was in the field of sports,
however, that "Citation" excelled. On Bigside hockey, he was vice-
captain and voted the most valuable player and held, as well. Dis-
tinction Caps in both hockey and football. Now in General Arts at
McGill, we hear he is majoring in hockey. The School wishes him
the best of luck in the future.

Overholt, B. M. C. ('Sl-'SG). Bluett's outstanding career at T.C.S.
began five years ago in the fall of 1951. Very much at home in the
gym. Bluett, in his New Boy year, won the Littleside trophy for gym.
Although for two years he was captain of the Bigside gym team, in
his last year he acted as coach because of an injury. Twice he won
the Best Gymnast trophy, as well as a Distinction Cap. A rugged
football player, Bluett played on Littleside and Middleside, and in
his last year was of much assistance to Mr. Landry in coaching Little-
side, for which he won a coaching award. As a hockey player, he
played for Littleside during his first two years, after which he focused
most of his attention on gym. Bluett was also a prominent member
of the Debating Society. Besides this, he was a Sacristan and a
member of "The Record" staff. Bluett completed his Sixth Form
year successfully, being made a House Prefect for his many con-
tributions to School life. He is now studying medicine at the Uni-
versity of Toronto. We all wish him the best of luck in his future
profession.

Proctor, R. C. ('51-'56). "Merv" first sauntered into the august
halls of T.C.S. in 1951 when he entered Brent House. During his stay
at T.C.S. Rog distinguished himself as a racquet sport man as he won
both his Middleside and Bigside colours in Squash. He also played
Littleside football, switched to soccer and then returned in his final
year to football and won his extra Bigside colour. Rog could also
be seen around Christmas and Easter high up in the rafters of the
gym as he was one of the School's most efficient stage hands. As a
result of these accomplishments, Rog was appointed a House Officer
in his final year. Roger is now attending the University of Western
Ontario where we wish him all the best in the future.

Robb, R. ('55-'56). In the one year that Rusty was at T.C.S. he
proved himself to be a credit to the School. He did so much in one
year here that he was appointed a House Officer last spring.
Scholastically he resided in VIA. In athletics, Russel was an out-
standing end on our Bigside football team, and played a strong game
on Bigside hockey. Also active in extra-curricular events, he was
both an avid member of the Political Science Club, and also responsible
for the best party that the House Officers' Common Room had seen
in many a day. This fall Rusty will join the United States Marines
and following his stretch there, hopes to go to Harvard. We all wish
Rustv the best of luck in the future.

Robinson, J. E. ('54-*56). "Midge" entered Bethune House in
September. 1954. Playing for our Bigside football team, he was a
fountain of humour, and earned extra Bigside colours in his final
season. In the winter term. Midge played on the basketball team,
of which he was co-captain. Last year, on Speech Day, he was awarded
the Norman Hugel prize for geology. This year, Jim plans to attend
Ryei-son Technical Institute, and take a Business course. Good luck,
Midge.

Ross, D. D. ('52-'56). "Dave" came to T.C.S. from the wilds of
Toronto, spending one year in Boulden House and four years in Senior
School. It was no time at all before he gained a reputation as a
haid worker, keen on athletics and one of the best-liked persons in
the School. Joining Bethune House, he took part in Littleside gym,
hockey and cricket in his Fourth Form year. In Fifth Form, he played
Middleside football, hockey and cricket. His last year was devoted
more to studies but he played Bigside hockey where he obtained his
full colours. We wish Dave "au revoir" and the best of luck with his
Business Administration course at Western.

Seagram, R. G. ('SS-'SB). In 1949, Richard entered Boulden House
where he immediately excelled in athletics, winning his colours in
football, hockey, and cricket. In tennis, he won the Junior School
singles championship. Coming up to Brent in 1952, Richard received
colours in Littleside football, gym, and cricket, again winning the
singles tennis championship. In his second year, he won Middleside
colours in football, and cricket, and Bigside colours in gym. Richard
gained further distinction as a distance runner in the Oxford Cup
Race, coming first. He also served on The Record staff. Joining the
Choir, he became a stalwart member for his remaining years at
T.C.S. In his last year at T.C.S., Hoary was appointed a School
Prefect. In athletics, he was captain of the Tennis Team, the Oxford
Cup team and won both the Senior singles and doubles tennis. Although
we shall miss Richard greatly, we wish him every success in his
future studies.

XVI

Sherwood, R. C ('51-'56). In the fall of '51, a large figure, as
far as New Boys go, arrived at T.C.S. Bob was a Bethunite, and also
a good football player, winning in his New Boy year his Littleside
colour, and later Middleside colour. An ardent photographer, he joined
the Photographic Society in his first year. "Abes," as a typist and
businessman, gave valuable assistance to "The Record." In both the
Choir and Glee Club, Bob was a tenor vocalist. In squash, he won
his Middleside colour. In his final year at T.C.S. , Bob was appointed
a Bethune House Officer. In the winter term, he very capably
managed Bigside hockey for which he received an award and was
also a member of the Pat Moss Club. The entire School wishes Bob
the best in all his future ventui'es.

Spivak, J. L. ('53-'56). Jerry Spivak entered T.C.S. in the fall
of '52. In Boulden House he not only shone at scholastic work but
became a well known athlete, winning his colours on the football team.
The following year, Jeriy entered the Senior School and again be-
came an accomplished student and sportsman. He played for both
Littleside and Middleside "B" football teams and gained his colours
in Littleside and Middleside cricket. Jerry is better known for his
skill at squash. As a member of the Bigside squash team, he made
wonderful progress and won his colour for his contributions to the
team. Being a true American, Jerry also played basketball and won
his Middleside colours. He took an active part in extra-curricular
activities and was a member of the Pat Moss Club, Political Science
Club, Dramatic Society, both Junior and Senior Debating Societies
and the Cadet Band. Jerry also undertook the difficult job of associate
sports editor of The Record. For all the above-mentioned contributions
to School life, he became a House Officer in his final year. In School
work, too, Jerry did extremely well, not only winning an entrance
scholarship to the Senior School but also various prizes throughout
his career, topped off by the classics prize in the Sixth Form. Jerry
left T.C.S. for Princeton University where he is in a pre-medical
course. He will be missed greatly by T.C.S.

Steinmetz, N. ('54-'56). Nick came to T.C.S. in the fall of 1954
and found he was a membei' of Bient House. Coming from Colombia,
Nick naturally felt at home with soccer and played on the first team.
At the end of a successful season he was awarded extra first team
colours. As winter came along, Nick turned to swimming. For two
consecutive years, he swam for the School team, and was granted his
Middleside colours. Besides sports, Nick achieved outstanding success
in his studies. At the end of his Fifth Form year, he was presented
with awards for General Proficiency, English (not his native lan-
guage), Religious Knowledge, and Latin. Returning to T.C.S. for his
second year, Nick became a member of the VIA Form, and yet found
time enough for the extremely heavy task as Editor-in-Chief of The

xvn

Record. In this capacity, he maintained the Record at an exceedingly
high standard. Foremost among his other interests were the Political
Science Club and the French Club. He took part in the French play
and was congratulated on several occasions for his good acting. For
all his good work throughout the year Nick was made a House Pre-
fect. On Speech Day, Nick distinguished himself further by winning
many high awards. First of all, he was Head Boy for 1955-56. He
also amassed the following prizes: Armour Memorial Prize, Second
Year Challenge Trophy, Chancellor's Prize, Lieutenant Governor's
Silver Medal for English, Rigby History Piize, and the French Prize.
Nick is now taking an Arts Course at McGill and later will study
Medicine. After that, he hopes to join the World Health Organization.
T.C.S. is sorry to see you go, Nick, but we wish you the best of
success.

Strange, M. W. (•52-'56). Bill Strange, known as "Willy" to most,
was a newcomer to the School in 1947. In the year 1952, he appeared
in the halls of Bethune in the S.S. To say that Bill remained in this
house would be incorrect for he lived in Brent but still retained his
former ties. Operating from room 100, he acted as an assistant broad-
caster for W.I. P. A., the School radio station. During his years at
T.C.S. Willy was on the swimming team for three years and gained
his Middleside colours. He also assisted Mrs. Dening as a librarian.
Bill is a prospective law student. We're sure he has the necessary
courtly gestures and we wish him success in his further studies.

Turnbull, W. S. ('54-*56). Wally was a newcomer to the School
in 1954, hailing from Rothsay, N.B. During the fall of that year he
played Littleside soccer. When ice appeared in the arena Wally
grabbed his skates and made for the rink. That year he played on
Middleside, and the following year gained Bigside colours for this
sport. Wally was also a tennis player winning his half Bigside colours
for his contribution to the School team. Wally became a House Officer
in his Sixth Form year. Meanwhile, he made harmonious notes float
f)om a bugle, forced U.C.C. to eat their words in an inter-school debate
and carried on as a member of "The Record" staff and as a Sacristan.
Dalhousie University is Wally's present abode where he is taking an
Arts Course. Best of luck to you, Wally.

Vernon. J. A- H. ('.53-'56). John came to T.C.S. in the fall of
1953, when he was recruited by Bethune House. He attended T.C.S.
for three years beginning with the Fourth Form, and working through
to the Sixth Form. During his first year,' John played with the Little-
side team, earning his extra colours. After football was over, he
decided to swim, again getting extra colours, but this time on a
Middleside team. Returning for his Fifth Form year, he furthered

XVIII

himself in the football world by being promoted from Littleside to
Middleside, where he played for the next two years, getting extra
colours. John was also promoted to the Bigside swimming team. For
two years, he swam for Bigside, and was awarded half-colours twice.
Besides sports, John played an active part in School activities, de-
voting much of his time to various clubs but especially to the Chapel.
In the Choir for two years, he was also a Crucifer, and in his last year
assumed the responsibility of Head Saci'istan. It was in this year
also that John was appointed a House Prefect for Bethune House
and helped greatly in the House. Among the extra-curricular activities
and clubs in which he was an active member and took intensive in-
terest were the Debating Society, the Political Science Club, the
French Club, the Dramatic Society, and The Record staff. John also
played an effective supporting role in one of the School's best plays,
"Journey's End." He plans to go to Trinity College, Toronto, taking
an Arts course. We wish him every success.

Wells, B. G, ('51-'56). On the first fall day of the Autumn term
of 1951, a group of New Boys were gathered around a young fellow
standing up on a soap box who was giving them a sales talk. What
had happened? You guessed it — Bruce Wells had come to T.C.S.
Bruce was one of the School's better history students and this ability
was used to advantage in the Political Science Club where he was
treasurer in V Foi-m and secretary in his last year. He also received
a history prize both years. An eloquent orator, he was a colourful
member of the Junior and Senior Debating Societies. For three years
he was also a very active member of the School Choir. He followed
up this keen interest in the School clubs by joining the Photographic
Society in the junior forms and presiding over the Radio Club in
Fifth Form. The Record staff employed his unusual abilities as well.
He carried on the management of the Business staff for three years
and won the Special Record Prize last June for his outstanding con-
tributions to the advertising department. He participated keenly
in athletics, too, where he gained Middleside and Littleside football
colours. In Fifth Form he competed in the Oxford Cup Race and
the following year he received his Bigside colour for squash. He also
won an av/ard for coaching and managing in this department. Bruce
was one of the more popular members of the Sixth Form with his
bright, casual manner and in his last year was made a House Prefect.
Law is Bruce's goal for the future. Best of luck from T.C.S.

Winnett, A. R. ('SS-'SG). Way back in 1950. "Bert" entered Boul-
den House doors with a pair of football boots slung over his shoulders.
Right from the beginning, he became one of the better all-round
athletes of the School. In his Junior School new boy year, he walked
off with four J.S. first team colours, football, hockey, gym, and
cricket. In his second and last year at the J.S., he won the same

XIX

colours again and was a member of "C" Dorm. In the fall of '52,
Bert entered Brent House. Playing Littleside football and Middle-
side hockey, he gained his full colours in both. In the spring, he
played Bigside cricket, and won half-colours. Always interested in
the life of the School, Bert joined The Record staff, the Choir, and
the School band, doing much valuable work in these activities dur-
ing his four years in the Senior School. The next year, due to a
broken shoulder, Bert did not play football, but managed to win
his Middleside hockey colours and extra Bigside colours in cricket.
In his Fifth Form year, Bert joined the Glee Club, and became one
of its more enthusiastic members. In hockey and cricket, he was
awarded his full Bigside coloius and half colours in football. He was
also head drummer of the band. During his final year at T.C.S., Bert
was again head drummer of the band. In sports, he won his full Big-
side colours in football, hockey, and cricket (vice-captain), and was
awarded Distinction Caps for the latter two. Bert was also appointed
to the position of House Prefect, a well-earned position. The School
wishes him the best of luck in his work at Queen's, where he is
studying medicine.

Wotherspoon, A. S. ('53-'56). Alan floated into Brent House in
'53 after a successful three year hitch in Boulden House. There he
won his First Team hockey colours, and became an industrious
member of "C" dorm. In his stay of three years in the Senior School,
Alan won his Littleside and Middleside hockey colours, and played
some good Middleside League football when soccer was discontinued.
While at the School, Al's greatest interest was music. A member of
the School orchestra and Cadet Band, he could be heard every night
up in the Hall after study in a jam session with other enthusiasts.
Al began his own "Hi-Fi Radio Station," symbolically labelled WIPA,
and broadcast good music and School news throughout T.C.S. This
became a great aid to School spirit. Al also took an active interest
in the French Club, being a regular member at the French table and
acting in the Christmas play. Always strong academically, he kept
up a good average throughout his T.C.S. career, and won the Governor
General's medal for Mathematics last Speech Day. We feel sure his
future at the U. of T. will be full of accomplishment. Best of luck, Al!

Wotherspoon, R. H. ('53-'56). Richard, better known as "Swatty"
spent seven years at T.C.S. diuing which he made himself a well-
known figure. In Boulden House he was a member of the Choir for
three years and in addition played first team soccer and second
team cricket. After entering Brent House in the Senior School, he
joined the Junior and Senior Debating Society, as well as the Political
Science Club. His sports activities included Littleside soccer. Middle-
side cricket, Middleside squash and manager of the first cricket
team for three years, where he did a first class job, one which T.C.S.
will not forget. He won a place in the leaders' course at Camp Borden
in the summer of 1955, and is now at C.M.R. We wish Swatty the
best of luck in his future career.

THE CHOIR SCHOOL

This year, the third annual Choir School was held in
the last two weeks of August, under the direction of Dr.
Healey Willan. The sixty-two boys at the school stayed
in Bethune House, and had their meals in the Senior School
dining hall. The chief instructor, Mr, John Hooper, was ably
assisted by guest lecturer Gerald Wheler from Ottawa, and
Mr. Walter McNutt, choirmaster of St. Thomas Church in
Toronto. The secretary in charge of recreation and other
activities was Mr. John Bradley, assisted by an experienced
staff. The kitchen staff was in charge of meals, and Mrs.
Scott was the nurse.

The boys arrived on Sunday, August 9, and stayed
until Saturday, September 1. The daily routine began with
a choir practice. This was followed at ten o'clock by early
matins. From 10.30 to 11.00 there was a break after which
the boys broke up into separate classes. Following lunch,
the boys spent their time at various recreations. This
continued for most of the afternoon, and after supper the
day was topped off by movies or some other form of enter-
tainment. On Sunday, there was a service at St. Mark's
Church.

The aim of the choir school was generally to improve
the singing of hymns, songs, and anthems. All concerned
felt this was the most successful choir school yet held here.

FOOTBAIX RAIXEES

During the evening of the 21st of September voices
reached a high pitch as everyone blew off steam in the
assembly room. In the midst of the hullabaloo stood Ian
Binnie waving his limbs in rhythm to the familiar strain,
"Roll the Score Up." Meanwhile, back at the piano, Adam
pounded a catchy beat while Dennis "the Weeper" Willows
showed his skill with all his drumming apparatus.

18 TRINITY CX)L1.EGE SCHOOL. RECORD

Several comedians showed their abilities by adapting
themselves to the part of a certain celebrity named Elvis
Presley. Stu Adam took the cake with his portrayal of this
renowned character. (Editor's note: This article does not
necessarily represent the feelings of this magazine.)

Generally a good time was had by all. School spirit
was at its best, for everyone contributed to both songs and
yells.

The crowd in the basement of the Chapel during the
evening of September 28 represented a gaudy array of ail
sorts, shapes and sizes of clothing worn during the last fifty
years. Ian Binnie was again M.C. of the gathering. It was
indeed a pleasure to have the School band in on the show.
This, their first public appearance, was so successful that
an encore was immediately called for.

The first feature in the evening's program was an
appearance by Lillie Pons (Colin McNairn). She and Mr.
Heard entertained the School with a charming duet. The
stage cleared once more, three gentlemanly looking singers
approached the mike. Now that the house lights had dim-
med the smooth voices of George McCullagh, Stu Adam
and last but not least, Garth "the Organ" Thompson gave
forth a modern rendition of the popular song, "With All
My Heart."

Under the leadership of Tony Lash, several equally
talented vocalists sang "Jamaica Farewell." After the per-
formance we began to realize the depth of talent in the
School in the field of singing. Indeed, the vocalists are many
and certainly of various types — of course I refer to their
singing.

When an Old Boy returns to T.C.S. to teach, as with Mr.
Heard, the boys immediately begin uncovering and re-
establishing old and long-forgotten nicknames.

Mr. Heard began his education at Strathcona School,
in Calgary, his home town. While at Strathcona, he par-
ticipated in many sports, including hockey, basketball, foot-
ball, and cricket. Coming to T.C.S., Mr. Heard brought
his western spirit with him. During his stay at T.C.S., he

28 TRINITY COU:.EGE SCHOOL RECORD

lilayed on Bigside football and managed Bigside hockey.
He was also a crucifer, and a member of both the choir and
the debating society.

In 1950, Mr. Heard entered the University of Alberta.
He joined the Calgary School Board in 1954, and taught in
a city school for two years. We welcome him to T.C.S. and
wish him success both in his teaching and as coach of
Middleside football.

MR. D. A. MASSEY

Mr. Massey was born in Croydon, Surrey, and educated
at Alderman Newton's School, Leicester, and Selhurst
School, Croydon. While at school, he took part in swim-
ming and track, as well as playing rugger, squash, and
cricket. He was made a Prefect at Selhurst. Mr. Massey
then spent two years teaching French and Grerman in the
Army Educational Corps, being stationed for his military
service in West Germany for some time. Following this, he
entered Queens' College, Cambridge, where he spent a most
successful period; he represented his college in shooting,
squash, rugger and cricket. Graduating with honouis
in the French and German tripos in 1955, he took
short summer courses at Strasbourg and Munster, then
ioined the firm of Standard Oil. Mr. Massey came to Canada
in August, 1956, and is teaching French and German. He
has a league football team, is helping with woodwork, and
plans to coach squash and cricket. We hope his stay at
r.C.S. will be a long and enjoyable one.

MR. F. A. PERRY

Mr. F. A. Perry was born in Kitchener, Ont., where he
r-.pent the first few years of his life. At the age of three,
he moved to a town near Ingersol, where he received most
of his early education. Graduating from Aylmer High
School, Mr. Perry joined the student body of Western Uni-

TRINITY COL.LEGE SCHOOL RECORD 29

versity. Here he took an honours course in modern languages
(French, Spanish, and Russian). While attending Western,
he joined the U.N.T.D. (University Naval Training Division) ,
spending summers in H.M.C.S. Venture, in Halifax and at
Royal Roads Military College. While in the U.N.T.D., he
became an Instructor Lieutenant, R.C.N. (r), teaching the
cadets Naval History, Navigation, Seamanship and Gunnery.
Mv. Perry graduated from Western with the coveted Gold
Medal, topping his class of 1956. Altogether, he had a very
distinguished academic career, winning scholarships every
year in both University and High School.

He is presently coaching a Middleside League team
as well as teaching the subjects indicated on the name plate
on his door, familiar to all who live in Trinity House. (Latin,
French, Spanish, Russian and Air Navigation).

We hope that anyone who plans to enter the diplomatic
service will sign up for a course in Russian. Good luck, Mr.
Perry, we hope you'll make linguists of us all.

MR. D. B. WING

Mr. Wing was born in Nort hv/est London near Wembley.
He received his Grammar school education at the Thames
Valley Grammar School at Twickenham. From there he went
to the Acton Technical College where he received his Bnc-
hclor of Arts degree in 1952. Then for a year he took a
teachers' training course at the University of London In-
stitute of Education. Mr. Wing was married in 1953 and
with his wife he went to teach at Ankara College in Turkey
in September of that year. This school consists of Turkish
boys and girls whose ages range from eleven to nineteen.
Mr. Wing taught the older students Mathematics and Science
while Mrs. Wing taught English to a group of young girls.
Mr. Wing was in Turkey for three years and came to Canada,
arriving on August 30, to join the Mathematics staff of
T.C.S. Mrs. Wing is offering assistance in the Old Boys'
office while Mr. Wing has undertaken to teach the Upper

30 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

School problems class, a new feature in the '56 timetable.
The whole School cxtencis to them a hearty welcome and
hopes that their life in Canada will be most enjoyable.

THE TRINITY CAMP

This summer, Trinity Camp was again run for a group
of underprivileged boys from Toronto and Montreal, and
was a success under the able direction of Mr. J. G. N. Gordon.
During the first week the camp was in session, Phil Spicer
and Charles Colby helped as counsellors while Bob Sher-
wood helped during the second week. Bill Boughner and
Ian Binnie drove up from Toronto to open the cabin. Ian
also came down the next week-end, and the following Satur-
day came once more to help close up the camp.

On one of the first really warm days of summer, Phil
Spicer arrived with twelve youngsters from Toronto. They
ranged from eleven to fourteen years. In minutes they had
piled into the awaiting cars — fishing rods, baseball bats,
musical instruments, and all. There was perhaps some dis-
appointment leaving the Lake, but nine miles later, as they
nearod the camp grounds, consisting of four acres of nciJ
and wood, all was forgotten.

After a hearty first meal, the boys had the afternoon
to make friends and explore the surroundings. Before sup-
per, two Montreal boys arrived, bringing the total number
of campers to fourteen. That night, the boys were divided
into two groups of seven, each team choosing a captain and
a team name. After every three days, a prize would be
given to one of the teams, hence a fierce struggle developed
between the Bobcats and the Blackhawks for the prize.

A point system determined the winning team. Points
were given for games, such as baseball and bingo, morning
inspection of the bunkroom and tent, and jobs such as
raising and lowering the flag, cleaning up the kitchen and
grounds, washing the dishes, and sweeping the floors. The
sense of team spirit which immediately developed was un-

TRINITY COLI^EGE SCHOOL RECORD 31

doubtedly of great importance in contributing to the camp's
success.

The morning began with a cold shower at the pump,
usually accompanied by shivers and shrill screams from
Kenny and Neil, "It's too cold! Where is Mr. Gordon? Get
hmi!" At this everyone would rush off to the "Executive
Suite." From within, however, could be heard only gentle
snormg. Two "ears" silently passed the window unob-
served, except by one, Bobby Tucker, whose frantic screams
brought Dave and Chubby Rosier charging through the
door. But all too late — Mr. Gordon was drying himself.

On the first trip away from camp, the boys arrived at
the Wesleyville beach on Lake Ontario. The water was
chilly, but the warm sun encouraged everyone to have a
quick dip before lunch. In the afternoon, a Scavenger Hunt
brought fifty points to the winners, a ball game following
immediately afterwards. Later in the week, a fishing trip
to Rice Lake proved an even greater success. Four boats set
out from Harwood, and before lunch, more than a dozen
perch had been caught. As the afternoon was blazing hot,
swimming was the most popular occupation. The next
morning, since everyone cooked his own catch, breakfast
finished quite late.

Most of the boys had never seen a farm before. Hence,
when it was announced at dinner that they were goin-;^ to
visit a farm, there was much excitement. After- everyone
had ridden the horses, a trip was taken to the fields to see
a hay-baler in operation. Before leaving, the boys were
given some time for jumping in the hay-loft, thus ending
an eventful day.

The creek, located less than a mile from camp, soon
proved itself to be the most popular spot in the area. A
dam supplied an excellent swimming-hole, while the creek
soon gained renown for the trout it contained, and which
the boys occasionally caught. Since it was also the home
of many snakes and frogs, new pets often appeared around
the cabin. After supper, an exciting game of ba.seball would

32 TRINITY (X>LLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

put the finishing touches on many a day. After that, Mr.
Gordon would read a chapter from an adventure story while
the boys ate cookies and drank cocoa around the fire. On
several occasions, a huge bonfire was built, and a com-
bmation of a sing-song and a marshmallow roast would
finish the day. It was during one of the bonfires that Ian
Binnie told the boys his memorable tale of "Club Foot."

For all concerned, Trinity Camp was a great success,
and, needless to say, the School hopes to run it again
next summer.

SUMMER JOBS OF 1956

The Summer of 1956 engaged T.C.S. gents in many
ways, ranging from an electrician's assistant in a hospital
to deckhands on Great Lakes oil-tankers. After a tough,
cool summer most of us were glad to get back to the com-
paratively easy life at School.

Although this was not the sort of summer for out-of-
doors work, Mr. Hodgetts and boys' camps seemed to
employ a large number of boys. Among them were Don
Young, Fuzzy Knight, Ken Scott, Tim Kennish, Tony Lash,
and Colin McNairn, who all (as I understand) had a terrific
time up at Hurontario. While these types enjoyed them-
selves on Georgian Bay, Rusty was acclaimed Temagami's
best hustler. George McLaren "counsellored" at Sherwood
Forest, Dave Cape at Nominang, Dave Sutton at Kandalore,
Doug Cunningham at Mazinaw and the Y.M.C.A. occupied
Bob Hart and Nick Boyd.

Tom Allen, Terry Hall and George McCullagh took a
nice easy vacation by seeing what Europe had to offer.
Apparently they weren't disappointed either.

The lifeguard situation was much improved this sum-
mer with Bob Savage working for the Red Cross in Windsor
and Tim Hamilton trying to do the same in Washington.

Out at Malton, Ramsey Derry and Bun Austin officially
obtained their wings. Incidentally, our congratulations go

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 33

to Ramsey as he v/on quite a name for himself in flying.

Reports from Quebec say that Tim Carsley was voted
Lion Vinegar Co.'s best all around apple-squeezer at head-
quarters in Vancouver.

Herbert and the two Piglettes worked for G.M. at the
Ex and from Port Carling comes the message that Welch's
is good grape juice.

I interrupt this sketch to bring you a special bulletin.
"The reports of a discomobile skimming across Stoney Lake
have been confii'med — the discomobile is real. From out-
side we can see Wes McKnight in the discomobile and believe
it or not— yes he is— he's TRUMPIN' it up." What a sum-
mer, eh Wes?

Meanwhile, out West, Adam Saunders was named the
most valuable anchor man in the boat races sponsored by
Shell. And you say you lost weight, Adam?

Dick Smith tells us that working as an electrician's
assistant isn't as bad as one may think — even if you did
work in an institution. Al Shier and his pals spent a good
summer at Niagara-on-the-Lake and Mark Dowie saw all
the ball games free as he v/as supposedly a reporter for a
Cleveland nev/spaper.

How are all the lumber-jacks up in Temagami, Bo?
We hear you had fun sawin' logs. Bob Smithers slaved on
a labour gang in Sarnia for Canadian Oil Companies while
Don Farnsworth worked as a time clerk for Abitibi Power
and Paper Company. Garth Thompson and Blaine Bowen
worked on oil tankers on the Great Lakes while Elvis, al-
though he was on the Great Lakes, was demoted to a fire-
man. Red Embury laid some beautiful eggs on a poultry
farm in Regina and our good friend Noranda Bill was a
geophysical surveyer in N.B. From all reports Bill liked
the job but hated the neck o' the woods.

Ian Binnie piled brick and spread mortar for the
Toronto General this summer. That's it, boy, we're glad to
see you helping those of us who need it! Joe Perkins drove
trucks for his Dad and found out that as long as you work

TRINITY COIXEGE SCHOOL RECORD

in your Dad's business you can't go wrong. Grant Duff was
hoping the Eskimos would keep him up there in Hudson's
Bay but he too decided that there is no place like home
(T.C.S.) so he returned.

While Fearless Fred Gordon surveyed the Lake o' the
Woods, Chas. Colby did absolutely nothing in an office
of some steel company or another as did Tony Minard for
Spruce Falls Power and Paper Co. And last and least of
all Peter Hyde worked for the Bank of Montreal as a junior
clerk. To wind up a wide variation of jobs, Al Ralph life-
guarded at a girls' camp, the lucky guy.

THE PIGEONS

When I was a young boy, I used to spend many hours
wondering about the many strange aspects of modern life.
As I grew older and more mature I gradually learned the
answers to many of the queries of my youth. There was,
however, one problem, which concerned the character of
a certain man I once met, the answer to which I have only
recently discovered.

I met this man one sunny afternoon as I hurried out
of a restaurant into Dominion Square in the heart of Mon-
treal. In my haste I nearly knocked over a pleasant looking
old man in his sixties, wearing a long dark coat which
stretched to well belov/ his knees and which gave him the
appearance of a Scottish landowner on the way to feed his

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 35

pheasants. I apologized politely for my carelessness and
stooped to help him retrieve the contents of a bag which
he had dropped on the sidewalk. I was surprised to discover
that the contents of the bag were nothing more than small
pieces of stale bread with which, he explained, he was going
to feed the pigeons in the square, as was his custom each
day at that time.

During the next few weeks I used to see my new friend
every day — at the same time crouched in the far corner of
the square, surrounded by a large flock of pigeons. I learned
from him one day that he spent more time with the pigeons
than he did with his wife. However, when I asked him
why he enjoyed the pigeons so much he became very shy
and reserved. Nevertheless, I was extremely puzzled as
to why pigeons were so interesting.

One day I found out. As I entered Dominion Square
on the way to my office I caught sight of the now familiar
figure of the old man crouched among the multitude of
pigeons. I was in a great hurry and did not wish to talk
to him. I therefore stayed on the sidewalk and walked right
past him glancing back only once to see if he had noticed
me. In that one second in which my eyes were upon him
I discovered why pigeons were so interesting to him. His
arm suddenly shot out like an arrow from his coat pocket,
seized a pigeon by the neck and shot it back into his coat.
He then stood up as if too tired to stoop any longer, stretched
his legs, walked to the curb and hailed a taxi and drove off.

I was too surprised to do anything but stand there and
stare after him. — d. e. cape, via.

THE MOB

The city lay still in the cool March air. Midnight had
struck a short while ago, and yet the usual noise of traffic
and hurry of feet were absent. The air was electric.

In a narrow street off the main thoroughfare was a
dingy shop. Three brass balls hung over the door, and on

3(5 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

the window in tarnished gold lettering were the words
"Pawn Shop, H. Mueller, Prop." Inside this emporium an
old man was puttering around tidying up. Hans Mueller
was a widower of nine years and this shop was all that he
had left in life. The weight of many years hung on his
stooped shoulders for he was a frail man. It had been a
long hard climb since he and his wife had emigrated from
Germany, but they had been happy years and the old man
would give all to re-live them.

As he turned to climb the stairs to his dingy apart-
ment his thoughts turned to the lonely meal of bread, cheese
and warm ale that he would partake of before retiring to
bed. Suddenly a rock came crashing through the window
to the accompaniment of many shouting voices and ham-
merings on the door. When Hans opened it he saw over
fifty people milling about waving their fists. As they caught
sight of the old man the cries died down, and then grew
loud and shrill with obscenities. A leather-jacketed youth
only a few feet from Hans threw a newspaper in the old
man's face. As Hans grabbed at it another boy struck him
on the head with a brick. Then as Hans fell forward, the
mob charged through the door, pushing him into a corner.

Everything that the rabble laid their hands on was
smashed to splinters. The contents of the window dis-
appeared in a twinkling, either pocketed or trodden under-
foot. Even the oaken counter was destroyed and holes
punched in the ceiling. In ten minutes the shop w?-s a
shambles, and the mob reluctantly filed out the door still
shouting and jostling one another.

Soon it was quiet again, and under the plaster and dust
amid the ruins of his lifework lay old Hans prostrate in
ths corner, a vivid gash across his temple. Clutched in his
hand was the open newspaper. Below the date, September
1930, "early edition," in a screaming headline lay the cause
of this wanton outbreak of violence. "Chamberlain declares
state of war with Germany."

NEW LIFE

At last the awaited moment arrives. The doorbell rings
not more than once before I reach the door. The delivery
boy hands me a small carefully wrapped package, presents
me with the bill and retreats. I hurry to my work bench
and open the box in seconds. The contents? One brass key
which will lead mc to my own unique world and its special
life.

Now this world is not imaginary, it is truly genuine.
It is a large iron box twelve feet high and twelve feet long
with walls a foot thick. The inside is plated with steel
and padded with soft thick cushioning. The furniture I
have provided is simple and perhaps scanty but that is the
way I have planned it. I called this huge container a world ;
well, it's going to be just that, for me.

For as long as I can remember I have always been
irritated by people and nature. Not physically, mind you,
but mentally. There always seems to be something irritable
about living creatures which I cannot tolerate. This aversion,
strange as it is, led me to contrive a plan by which I might
escape my unfortunate allergy. I spent most of my money
on years of research and gradually constructed my unique
retreat. I have an unlimited supply of food, so now the
key, which shuts and locks me inside is the last minor factor.
There it is in my hand.

I step inside, switch on the light and without a single
glance or word to the world I close the door. Smoothly it
slides into place with a click that marks eternal separation
from the earth.

My first thought is to sleep because the continual strain
for the last week has been heavy. I lie down on the couch
with an almost supernatural peace of mind and let my
thoughts wander.

I awake slowly now; it must be some time afterwards
for I feel completely rested. There seems to be a peculiar
odour of wet grass (or something of that nature) but it
must be my imagination.

38 TRINITY COLJLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

Then, I open my oyer, and with a horrible lump in my
throat I begin to piece tojelhcr three simple facts. I have
become aware of a slight ache in my ribs, my surroundings
arc not })added walls but open fields and thirdly, beside me
lies a woman.

THE SrEAKEK

"Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Irving Cousins of River
Falls, Quebec."

An expectant hush fell over the tiny auditorium as Mr.
Cousins stepped quickly to the flag-draped platform. He
was a young man, tall but very thin, whose pleasant, smiling
face and straightness of bearing gave him a satisfying air
of pride and confidence. Indeed, his whole appearance,
from his sleek black hair to his gleaming shoes which re-
flected the silent faces of the enraptured crowd, seemed to
blend into a magnificent picture of grandeur that made an
immediate impression upon his attentive audience.

Nevertheless, a slight quiver in his voice could be per-
ceived as i\!r. Cousins cleared his throat and prepared to
utter the first words of his first public speech. As he spoke,
his words rang out, echoing off the bleak walls of the
crowded room so that they seemed to linger in the air be-
fore they were swailov/ed up by the enraptured minds of
the listeners. Finally, as J.Ir. Cousins concluded his oration
and returned once more to his seat, thunderous applause,
which shook the very foundations of the little building,
burst forth from the excited audience. Mr. Irving Cousins
was a success.

EDITORIAL

I heard an Old Boy ack thin Thanksgiving where the
soccer field had gone. Well, the answer is that, for the
second year, we have put the soccer ball away and the
soccer player we have made into a football star, either on
a School team or on one of the intramural league teams. It
appears that these leagues have paid off for we find five
of last year's league boys playing on the first team. Per-
haps this is what has sparked the team to win three and
tie one of the four exhibition games played so far. Mr. Law-
son, who has taken the place of Mr. Hodgetts, v/ho coached
the team for twelve years, has moulded a hard-hitting,
hard-tackling outfit out of the six returning boys and the
material that turned out in September. With the first Little
Big Four game only a week away from this writing, we
are beginning to wonder if that team which seemed a little
weak at first, might just have that "esprit de corps" to go
all the way to the top. And with the wonderful spirit the
School has shown already we are sure to have a colourful,
lively season.

Middleside this year is coached by Mr. Sandy Heard,
an Old Boy, who is doing a fine job in Mr. Lawson's place.
The team has lost its fir.st two Little Big Four games, both

40 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

in very close matches, especially against Ridley; but led
by their spirited captain, John Embury, they still have high
hopes in the games to come.

Littleside, coached again by Mr. Landry and captained
by Peter Barbour and John Braden, have run into rather
tough competition against a heavier Upper Canada team
and a faster more experienced Ridley squad. They are a
smaller team than usual but are showing good spirit and
hard effort in every game.

BIGSIDE FOOTBALL

T.C.S. vs. OSHAWA
At Port Hope, September 16. Tied 14-14.

In the season's opener Trinity split a close fast game
against Oshawa Collegiate. Although T.C.S. kicked off they
soon gained possession of the ball, marching down the
field to the twenty yard line where a second down pass
failed to chck. Terry Hall then kicked a long spiral out
of the end zone, for a single point. Oshawa took the ball
on their twenty-five but fumbled on the second play, T.C.S.
recovering. The School took the field again but were held
short of a T.D. by one yard. Oshawa vainly tried to break
out of their own end, but were forced to kick. The partially
blocked kick landed out of touch at the Oshawa fifteen.
The stage was then set for Rusty Dunbar to go over for a
T.D. and Dave Marrett kicked the extra point. Oshawa
received but were pushed back deep into their own end.
Then Perrin for T.C.S. intercepted a short pass and ran
ten yards to make a 14-0 Trinity score at half time.

In the second half Oshawa picked up considerably
showing some very good faking. Shortly after the kick-off
Bill Wilson for Oshawa took the baU from the T.C.S. forty-
five and battered through the Trinity defence for a conver-
ted T.D. T.C.S. then retaliated with a surge of power, but
again were held just short of the goal line. Oshawa fought

back and got out to their own twenty-five where they fum-
bled, T.C.S. again recovering. The School tried a field goal
on the twenty yard line but the ball missed its mark. Oshawa
then came back with a long pass from their own twenty
complete to Jim Harris, a Trinity old boy, who ran all the
way for a T.D. Again the convert was good, tying up the
score at 14-14.

In the dying minutes of the game, Oshawa, driven to
greater efforts, pushed T.C.S. right down to the touch line,
but failed to put the ball over, before the one minute flag
tell to end the game.

T.C.S. vs. NORTH TORONTO
At Port Hope, September 29. Won 26-12.

In their second exhibition game of the season. Big-
side played host to North Toronto. The team looked very
much improved over their first game as they beat the visi-
tors 26-12.

In the first quarter North Toronto took the lead on an
unconverted touchdown by Achienne. Near the end of the
first quarter the School fought back hard to tie the score
but were unable to, although Hall kicked a single. In the
second quarter T.C.S. went ahead on an unconverted touch-
down by Hall.

In the third quarter, the School dominated the play as
they went ahead on two touchdowns by Dunbar, one being
converted. In the final quarer Adam intercepted a North
Toronto pass and ran 70 yards for the School's final touch-
down. The convert was missed. Then North Toronto took
over and pressed deep into T.C.S. territory. The ball changed
hands twice. Auld then went over for North Toronto and
the convert attempt was blocked. The final score was 26-
12 for T.C.S.

T.C.S. vs. PETERBOROUGH

At Port Hope, October S. Won 83-6.

In their third exhibition game of the season, T.C.S.
showed a great deal of improvement over the previous

42 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

games, especially defensively as they held Peterborough to
very few first downs.

Peterborough struck surprisingly fast after taking ad-
vantage of a short kick and a T.C.S. fumble, and within three
plays had passed for a touchdown, Bob Hutton making the
catch. The convert was blocked.

Following the kick-off the School marched right down
the field from their own 35 on a series of end runs and
plunges, Al Shier and Rusty Dunbar carrying. The result
was a T.D. by Al Shier which was easily converted by Dave
Marett. The score at the end of the quarter was 7-6 for
the Maroon and Black.

In the second quarter the defensive work by both teams
was tighter than in tlie first and the School was held to
one additional touchdown by Dunbar on a spectacular end
run. The convert once again was good and at the half the
scort'board read 14-6.

Having received the kick-off, T.C.S. failed to gather
steam for another long march and Peterborough threat-
ened once again but lost the ball on the fumble. Once again
Dunbar sv/ept around the end behind the blocking of Scott
and Marett and the result was another touchdown which
Marett converted. From here the School saw two more
touchdowns — McKnight capitalizing on a loose ball and
Adam going all the way on a reverse. Both converts were
blocked and the final score was 33-6 for the home team.

T.C.S. vs. DANFORTH TECH.

At Port Hope, October 6. Won 33-0.

In the team's third exhibition game of the year, Big-
side scored a decisive victory over the aggressive but ill-
fated Danforth squad. The game got off to a fast start
when Cape of T.C.S. went all the way down the field for a
touchdown. Dunbar soon added to the score late in the first
quarter, giving T.C.S. a handsome lead. Our team did not
stop there, however, and Hall soon scored his first touch-
dov/n of the afternoon, giving Marett an opportunity to kick
a convert.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 43

After half-time, action slowed considerably until T.C.o.
scored again with Hall's second major late in the third
quarter. Dunbar again scored for Trinity and this, with
Marett's two converts, completed the day's scoring. Dan-
forth tried hard, but the Trinity defense held fast, foiling
their every attempt to score. Although the game was tight
in spots, the final score is enough to show that T.C.S. was
never in danger of losing.

T.C.S. vs. MALVERN

At Port Hope, October 13. Won 38-13.

On October 13, Trinity's Bigside team added to licr
winnmg streak by downing a strong Malvern team. In
the first quarter, Dunbar made two quick touchdowns, with
Marett adding a point to place T.C.S. well in front. In the
second quarter, however, after a long drive upfield, Brovv^n
of the Malvern team scored a touchdown, making the score
13-6. T.C.S. retaliated and after a few plays, Hall made
another six points for T.C.S.

Early in the second half, Adam caught a long pass
and ran for a touchdown. Dunbar got his third touchdown
of the afternoon after a fumble, and Farnsworth climaxed
another long drive with a major, converted by Marett. In
the fourth quarter, Malvern again became aggressive and
Reeve got the touchdown. The convert was good on a pass.
The game finished with T.C.S. victorious 38-13.

MIDDLESIDE vs. OSHAWA

At Port Hope. Lost 19-15

Middleside's first game of the season got off to a fly-
ing start when the Seconds recovered the ball in the second
play of the game, but the skill did not last and the School
was edged out 19-15.

Oshawa took the lead early in the first quarter with
Waldon scoring an unconverted touchdown. Both teams

44 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

failed to score majors in the second quarter but a hard-
hitting Trinity team took advantage of an Oshawa fumble
late in the quarter and Red Embury kicked a field goal
leaving the score 6-3 in favour of Oshawa.

After the half, Oshawa came quickly back with Waldon
again scoring but failing to convert. At the three-quarter
mark T.C.S. rallied and Woody threw a long pass to Crowe
for a touchdown but the convert attempt was unsuccessful.
Minutes later Oshawa marched up the field and Waldon
charged through for a touchdown which was converted by
Wills. T.C.S. took the kick-off in the dying moments of
the game and Wood made a spectacular run for a touch-
down which was unfortimately unconverted.

MIDDLESIDE vs. U.C.C.
At U.C.C., September 29. Lost 32-13.

In their second game of the season, Middleside ran into
a strong Upper Canada College squad and were defeated
32-13. The score suggests a wide margin in play but the
game as a whole was a tight, sec-saw struggle until U.C.C.
capitalized on their breaks in ths last quarter.

Trinity opened the scoring when Wood caught a siilc-
linc pass from Embury and went over standing up. T.C.S.
failed to convert and led 6-0. U.C.C. came back and scored
an unconverted touchdown resulting from a long plunge
llirough centre. In the second quarter Upper Canada went
ahead for the first time on a plunge from two yards out
and converted to lead 13-6 at half time.

T.C.S. hit hard in the third quarter and were rewarded
as Wood scored his second touchdown on another pass.
Trinity converted and at the end of the quarter the teams
were deadlocked at 13-13.

U.C.C. went ahead in the early moments of the fourth
fjuartor on an unconverted touchdown and wrapped it up
with another unconverted touchdown minutes later. With
time running out, T.CS. made its last bid to get back into

TRINITY COLI.EGE SCHOOL. RECORD 45

the game but Upper Canada turned an intercepted pass into
a touchdown and held on for a 32-13 win.

anDDLESIDE vs. RIDLEY
At U.C.C, October 3. Lost 20-19.

The second game on the Middleside schedule was a very
fast, hard-hitting game. Although, during the first quarter,
each team drove deep into their opponents' territory,
neither team scored. During the second quarter, the Ridley
team drove our team back to their goal line, but Middleside
held fast. The game remained scoreless.

A long pass by Ridley in the early minutes of the third
quarter gave Ridley the first touchdown of the game. Their
attempt for a convert failed. T.C.S. rallied with a 60-yard
run by Savage to tie the score. The convert attempt was
too short. The third quarter ended with a second touch-
down by Ridley, this time converted.

In the fourth quarter, Colby and Wigle scored two
touchdowns, unconverted, for T.C.S. Ridley rallied, scoring
a major also, but missed the convert. Ridley was then
caught behind its goal-posts for one point. The score was
now tied at 19-19. In the final minutes of the game, Ridley
kicked into the T.C.S. end-zone to make the final score 20-19
for Ridley. Standing out on the T.C.S. team were Savage,
Wiglc, Colby and Wood.

3nDDLESII>E vs. »LU.VERN

At Port Hope, October 13. Lost 8-7.

On Saturday, October 13, Middleside played host to
Malvern in a very exciting exhibition of football. Both
teams were very evenly matched, and the outcome was in
doubt for the whole garr.?. Middleside scored first when a
field-goal attempt by Embury was missed. Malvern were
rouged in their own end, putting Middleside ahead 1-0.
However, a determined Malvern team soon marched down

46 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

the field, and MacLaughlan carried the ball over on a two-
yard plunge, to put Malvern ahead 6-1. The convert attempt
was foiled. Malvern added another point shortly after, when
Labbett hoisted a long punt that bounded out of touch in
llie end-zone, making the ncore at half-time 7-1 in favour
of Malvern.

On the first play of the second half, Hyland threw a
long pass to Wood who scored a torichdown for Middleside,
tying the score a 7-7. The convert was missed when the ball
hit the upright and bounced back. Shortly afterwards the
game was clinched when Labbett kicked for the winning
point, giving Malvern the game 8-7.

LITTLESIDE

LITTLESIDE vs. U.C.C.
At U.C.C, September 29. Lost 45-0.

In their first game of the season Littleside was beaten
by a heavier and more experienced U.C.C. squad. From the
beginning U.C.C. dominated the play and the first score
was by Conacher. It was unconverted. Next Morris scored
for U.C.C. on a pass from Innes. It also was unconverted.
Then Allen and Pollite scored consecutively, the latter touch-
down being converted by Derantny. Thus the first half
ended 25-0 in favour of U.C.C.

The second half opened with T.C.S. showing more
stamina than they had in the first. But still U.C.C. managed
to get through. This time Norris again scored on a pass
from Innes and it was again converted. Then Conacher got
through for an unconverted T.D. With T.C.S. threatening
ctrojigly, Norris scored on another pass from Innes.

Although they suffered a great loss, Littleside still
shows promise of being a fast team.

TRINITY COLI.EGE SCHOOL RECORD 47

LITTIJ5SIDE vs. RIDLEY
At U.C.C., Octobor 6. Lost 20-lS.

In their second game, Litlleside showed very strongly
although they lost a very close game.

T.C.S. opened the scoring when Paisley recovered a
Ridley fumble behind their line for a touchdown. It was
unconverted. T.C.S. again scored a short while later on a
kick by Wigle, trapping Ridley for a single point. Shortly
following, Ridley scored a touchdown which was converted.
It was made on a T.C.S. fumble with Secombe recovering.
The first half ended with the score tied 7-7.

Ridley quickly opened the scoring in the second half
with a hard ground attack. Band going over for the touch-
down and Ridley again converting. T.C.S. came to life again
with a touchdown by Hancock late in the fourth quarter.
Once more, it was unconverted. With only minutes to go,
Ridley scored on the kick-off with Hiles making the touch-
down. Their convert attempt failed, making the final score
to a very well played game 20-13 in favour of Ridley.

THE LITTLE BIG FOUR TENNIS TOURNAMENT

This year the tournament was held at the Toronto
Cricket Club courts. The U.C.C. team defeated Ridley,
S.A.C. and T.C.S. by winning all nine of their matches. Rid-
ley won 6, S.A.C. 2 and T.C.S. 1. In all, 12 singles and six
double matches were played. Dave Cape, the captain of the
team, won the single T.C.S. victory in the singles over David
Albury of S.A.C.

Chris English was defeated in the singles, Peter Allen
and Tom Turnbull in the doubles but in both cases T.C.S.
won one of the sets.

U.C.C. won the George McAvity Memorial Trophy
which was held two years ago by T.C.S. and U.C.C. and
last year by Ridley.

BOULDEN HOUSE RECORD

This is the first time these notes have appeared under
our new name of Boulden House. We are very proud of the
name but still a little self-conscious when using it. The
habits of many years are hard to break!

The largest number of New Boys for several years
swept in on September 11th. We feel that they have already
become part of T.C.S. and we wish them all a happy and
profitable stay in the School.

Our best wishes go with our Old Boys who are starting
a new life in the Senior School this year. Good luck to all
of them!

We welcome Mr. Kingman and Mrs. McKinley to our
staff and hope they will enjoy their work with us.

Congratulations to Mr. John S. Guest on his appoint-
ment as Master-in-Charge of the Lower School at Ridley,
and all good wishes for many happy and profitable years
there.

We picked a superb day from among many poor ones
for our usual Fall picnic. It seemed to be as great a success
as always.

THE CANNON

In Old Fort Henry, on one of the stone walls, stands
an ancient 18th Century cannon. Facing outwards, it still
guards the countryside, now the metropolis of Kingston.
Instead of protecting a tiny settlement, it now watches over
vast factories, colleges and stores.

Made of strong, solid iron, the cannon has withstood
the battles against the Americans in the War of 1812. The
barrel, made of brass, has been shined until the sun reflects
off it like a million sparks. Beside the gun are piled a dozen
or so old cannon balls. At one point near the cannon is a
tm box full of cotton wicks. Beside the muzzle is a large
barrel filled with an amount of gunpowder.

50 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

During the summer months, it watches college students
perform and dress in the costumes of old. It sees them march
across the stone keep in the ancient uniforms.

But as the autumn frosts come, the gunpowder, wicks
and cannon balls are stored away, and the ancient cannon
prepares itself for another winter.

GUESS AGAIN

It had happened. Yes, he needed money. "Why," he
asked himself, "Why, oh why, did it have to happen to
me?"

Already I have captured your attention. You're won-
dering why he needs money. You probably think he has
been pickpocketed, or he lost his wallet. Well, I could say
that, but I won't.

He had lost the bet. The Yankees lost. I'll make another
attempt.

"No, please, don't, dear," cried the anguished mother

Here, again, I have you guessing what is he going to do.

This time you're thinking, "Well, I'll fool him, he's not
going to kill anybody. He's going to cut a freshly baked cake
or he's just looking at the knife."

Well, I'll fool you. He isn't going to kill any person, or
cut the cake. He's preparing to skin his pet rabbit!

OUR NEIGHBOUR'S DOG

"Wow! I don't think that I've come through that front
door so fast in all my life! In other words, the neighbour's
dog was chasing me.

It is a yappy, disagreeable, pugnacious little pest. For
instance, it goes to a lovely delphinium just blooming. Out
comes the plant, in goes a dirty, old bone.

I feel like wringing its pesky neck every time I see
the wretched thing. Unfortunately, it's too tough."

FEAR

As the sun went under the horizon, a gradual quiet
spread over the land. Suddenly the silence was shattered
by the tinkling of breaking glass. Joseph Winfield woJie
with a start. Since the murder of Charles Wilson, none of
the villagers had slept well.

As he lay there burrowed into the blankets, the bed-
room door creaked mysteriously and slowly opened. A men-
acing silhouette seemed to slip across the wall from the
door to the window. It moved silently, hardly making a
sound other than a slight rustling. Winfield stared terrified
at the shadow, pulling himself deeper and deeper into the
bedclothes. When the shadow began to move toward him,
he pulled the blankets tighter around him. As the silhouette
stood over him, he made one last effort to cover himself
from the menace

Next morning, when the coroner had finished exam-
ining the body, his verdict was "Accidental death by suffo-
cation."

OUR LONELY NORTH

Travelling west on one of the famous C.P.R. trains,
Canadians notice with pride the broad wheat fields and the
tall grain elevators. Necessary as this great agriculture is
to Canada, there is too much of it. Millions of bushels of
wheat a year are surplus — surplus that is hard to dispose
of. Couldn't some of this vast land be used for other indus-
trial purposes?

More important though are the waste lands in Northern
Ontario and the North West Territories. Northern Ontario
has its rich mining belt, but the lands to the northwest
are, at present, useless. It has been said by many of the
leading nations of the world that Canada is a great country
to invest in. Unfortunately, only Canadians do not recog-
nize this fact.

Our main handicap, of course, is our small population
which lives mainly on the international border between
Canada and the United States. To settle the vast regions
to the north would mean expanding our population north-
west. To do this, many more millions of people are still
needed. Let us hope that in a few years we may settle and
industrialize our lonely north.

M. H. H. Bedford-Jones, Form IIAl

PEACE

As the sun went down under the horizon, a gradual
quiet spread over the land. The monstrous machinery of
man ceased its clashing and turning. The throbbing hustle
and bustle of the cities and towns of the land slowly, quietly
settled down until only could be heard the soft murmur of

TRINITY COIX,EGE SCHOOL RECORD 53

the wind through the dull green trees along the sleepy
streets.

The animals of the land began creeping quietly through
the underbrush to their secluded homes. The crickets and
frogs, hidden ingeniously throughout the meadows, began
their monotonous high-pitched songs to the stars. All
through the woods, the owls sat lazily on the gnarled, twisted
limbs of old trees, giving their "All's well" to the slumbering
animals.

Throughout the land the Lord had said sleep, and all
slept in peace.

— J. A. Burton, Form IIAl

WINTER'S NEAR

The colourful leaves fall softly,
Softly to the ground.
In many shapes and sizes,
Tumbling softly from the trees
To the ground far below.

After the many leaves have withered.
Everything is still for a while,
Then the snow is teeming o'er us.
It is Winter at our door.

BmSPWOTES

THE T.C.S. FUND

Contributions to the Fund projected over a period of
nine years now total slightly over Seven Hundred Thousand
Dollars.

This is a magnificent response by Old Boys, Governors,
Parents, Masters, Boys and Friends to the number of slightly
over five hundred.

It is wonderful now to see the number of Old Boys
and others who are beginning to send in their contributions
of modest sums but which they hope to continue over the
years. Only by this means can we reach our objective by
1965.

At the moment the School is packed full but we are
ntill running into the red, principally because of the assist-
ance we give to some thirty boys in the form of bursaries
or scholarships. The School has always felt it was a privilege
to help promising lads and it is a service we should render
to the country and to the sons of clergy and of Old Boys
who cannot afford the fees.

If the fund reaches its objective the income will be suf-
ficient to pay for all the bursaries and scholarships now
given ($20,000) and other additional ones. The income
from the cash received so far will amount to about $4,000.00.

Forty per cent of the total amount subscribed has been
given by six families: when a thousand Old Boys feel in-
spired to send in their contributions, whatever they may
be, then we shall be able to say not only that T.C.S. has
blazed a new trail in the amount given to help the School
and promising boys, but that a larger proportion of Old
Boys, Parents and Friends has subscribed than ever helped
any other Canadian School or University.

THE COWBOY'S PRAYER

A tribute to one of Canada's greatest ranchers, the late
George Graham Ross, Sr., of Aden, Alberta.

Lord, I've never lived where churches grow,

I loved creation better as it stood.

The day you finished it so long ago,

And looked upon your work and called it good.

I know that others find you in the light
That's sifted down through tinted window panes.
And yet I seem to feel you near tonight
In this dim quiet starlight on the plains.

Lord, let me live my life as I've begun
And give me work that's open to the sky.
Make me a partner of the wind and sun.
And I'll not ask a life that's soft nor high.

Let me be easy on the man that's down.

Let me be square and generous with all.

I'm careless Lord sometimes when I'm in town.

But never let them say I'm mean or small.

Make me as big and open as the plains,
As honest as the horse between my knees,
Clean as the wind that blows behind the rain.
Free as the hawk that circles down the breeze.

TRINITY CXDLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 65

Forgive me Lord if sometimes I forget,
You know about the reasons that are hid.
You understand the things that gall and fret;
You know me better than my mother did.

Just keep an eye on all that's done and said
And right me sometimes when I turn aside
And guide me on the long dim trail ahead
That stretches upward toward the Great Divide.

Taken from the Souvenir Program of the Lethbridge Ex-
hibition and Rodeo, published by the Lethbridge Junior
Chamber of Commerce.

GEORGE G. ROSS ('06-'09)

George Ross, who died on June 22nd at his Alberta
Ranch, was at T.C.S. from 1906 until 1909. Few more popular
boys ever attended the School and those who knew him fifty
years ago never forgot him and often referred to him. He
was a Prefect, a strong member of the first T.C.S. Football
Champions in 1908, a team on which there were such stal-
warts as Jack Maynard, George Laing, Peter Campbell,
Walker Taylor, Buck Pearce, Styx Macaulay, Pudge Drum-
mond, and George Ross was named outside wing on the
School's All Star team of that year. He was on the Oxford
Cup Committee, the Athletic Sports Committee, and he
took a leading interest in many other sides of School life.

For thirty years George was one of the most widely
known men in Western Canada. He was universally ad-
mired and respected and he held sometime all the important
positions in the cattle breeding associations.

In the First World War, he had fought in the Flying
Corps and Royal Air Force with distinction and after the
War, he became the first rancher in Western Canada to
fly his own aircraft.

His countless friends will never forget George Ross.

QQ TRINITY COLJ:.EGE SCHOOL RECORD

From The Lethbridge Herald, Saturday, June 23, 1956:
"It is difficult to think of the Southern Alberta cattle busi-
ness without George Ross. He was the typical western stock-
man — he loved the range lands and the free life he found
out there in the short grass country. Son of a shrewd
cattleman of the old school, Mr. Ross carried forward a
high tradition. He believed in the business in which he
found fame and fortune and in its important place in the
Canadian economy. He knew cattle, was a recognized judge
of a beef animal and did much to stabilize the business in
this region and the whole West in fact, for the influence
of George Ross was felt far beyond the boundaries of his
province. He was always fair, was never looking for Govern-
ment handouts; he kept his feet on the ground. But if he
thought the cattlemen were getting a raw deal no man fought
harder to get the situation before the proper authorities
and righted. And the Government listened when he put the
facts in his drawl, simple, down-to-earth but convincing
style. He spoke from the 'grass roots' and they knew it.
His death comes as a great shock. It is a real loss to the
country."

"The wound which the Hungarian revolution inflicted
on Communism can never be completely healed . . . National
Communism is itself . . . only a phase in the evolution and
withering away of contemporary Communism."

Milovan Djilas, former Yugoslav Vice President.

Throughout the duration of the so-called "cold war,"
we, the people of the western world, have attempted to
spread our beliefs on the government of man and the manner
in which we believe he should live in relation to his fellow
man — to the citizens who live behind the Iron Curtain. Our

instruments to accomplish this, Radio Free Europe, the
Voice of America, and other organizations, have been suc-
cessful up to a point, but the Soviet Union and its steadily
increasing number of satellites have remained under the
strictness of Kremlin dictatorship, unable to express their
opinions in a parliament, unable to practise their ideas
through government by democratic legislation. By political
and economic diplomacy, the free nations of the world have
attempted to gain some support from these puppet govern-
ments, or governments which are being induced to become
such by the Soviet bosses, but have usually met with little
or no success.

Within the last month, two revolts have occurred with-
in the Communist stronghold which have done more to
prevent the spread of communism to areas previously un-
touched, and to cause dissension among already Red-
dominated nations, than all of these other methods com-
bined, though undoubtedly they all played a part in bring-
ing the uprisings about. The first rebellion, in Poland, has
been successful, (or was at the time of this writing).
Though Poland has not separated from her military alliance
with Russia, she appears to have won the right to convert
from communism to socialism. The Premier of Poland,
Wladyslaw Gomulka, has been increasingly successful in his
bid for domestic independence from Russia.

In Hungary, the immediate result has been something
less than successful, it has been tragic. The Hungarians
decided to go further, to attempt a complete break with
Russia and return to a socialistic and democratic form of
government. The result, which has been graphically told
in newspapers, magazines, on television, and by radio,
everyone knows. The Soviet would not tolerate such a move,
and moved in with such vindictiveness and brutality that
it has since become known as the "Russian blood bath."
Nevertheless, the Hungarian people's heroic stand against
this Russian barbarism has created world wide sympathy
for their cause, dissension in the Kremlin, and discord in

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 3

Communist organizations throughout the globe. This Soviet
empire, held together purely by oppressive military might,
controlled by a small clique of power drunk politicians, will
not continue much longer. "If a house be divided against
itself, that house cannot stand."

The world is voicing its opinion of Russia's move. In
an Italian election, held since the Hungarian crisis, the
Communist vote was cut by fifty per cent. In France the
Communist controlled General Confederation of Labour
attempted to stage a counter demonstration against rioting
before the Soviet Embassy in Paris. This was a complete
and utter failure. Several leading figures in England's Com-
munist party have resigned altogether, condemning the
Russian move into Hungary, others have been chased
through the streets by the infuriated populace. Not a very
enticing picture for any prospective Communist!

Karl Marx, the founder of Communism, stated that the
world cannot live in co-existence, (the inference being, of
course, that Communism must someday reign supreme.).
However, if this be true, then Commimism is doomed, for
a system will never win the world if it is apparent, as it
has been these last few weeks, that the people imder it are
being exploited and forcefully subjugated. Optimistically,
one hopes that the march of Communism has reached the
beginning of the end.

I do not believe that we should now hope for a com-
plete world wide adoption of our way of life, for it has been
proved that what applies in our environment is not neces-
sarily the best system in other parts of the globe. Rather,
let us hope that in the near futiu-e representatives of aU
nations, unbiased by political, economic, social, and re-
ligious alliances, may meet within the sanctuary of the
United Nations, and intelligently discuss the problems that
confront the world today. In this manner, and in this
manner alone, will we be able to formulate a peaceful
solution, and one day be able to live in peace and prosperity.

This Christmas, the world has received a truly magni-
ficent gift from the people of Himgary and Poland. By

their undaunted courage and immortal conviction, they have
begun the breakdown of the Soviet alliances, the so far
impenetrable Communist block, which we hope will begin
a chain reaction, someday culminating in freedom for the
peoples of all nations. They have attained a result which
no other method could have achieved. Let us never forget.

PREPARING FOR LIFE

(An Address given in Chapel by the Headmaster
at the beginning of term)

The Headmaster began his Address by quoting a
remark made by a senior member of the Air staff. He had
been discussing possible occupations for Air Force officers

g TRINITY COIX.EGE SCHOOL. RECX)RD

after they retired and he said that he could think of no
other more interesting and worthwhile career than that of a
schoolmaster at a boarding school like T.C.S. "There is a
real mspiration," said the Headmaster, "in looking on such
a group of young men as I see in this Chapel, 265 boys with
healthy minds and bodies ready to tackle anything with a
vigorous and enthusiastic purpose. In youth, the sense of
wonder and the sense of adventure is keen and very highly
developed for our years ; at this season particularly we have
vividly in our minds the life of nature for most of us have
been away for summer holidays. We think of the miUions
of stars on a clear night, some of them shooting across
the sky and others just hanging out of the universe, the
whole heaven studded with their amazing brightness and
multitude. (The Headmaster then spoke of the comets
which trailed over the School in the year 1913.) Then there
are new inventions of Man constantly coming to our atten-
tion and changing our type of life; when I was a boy one
simply could not imagine that he could cross Canada from
Atlantic to Pacific in eight or nine hours or, indeed, get into
a motor car and be 65 miles away in a little over an hour
Hither in winter or summer. Think, too, of the radio and
television, how every voice and every sound and almost
every picture can be brought to us from the uttermost limits
of the world; it is all extraordinary and thrilling.

Life is an adventure and I hope you will always keep
it an adventure.

There are 80 boys in this Chapel this evening who
have not been at T.C.S. before. You are joining a new
family and a School old in years but ever young; the School
is always the same age as far as its inhabitants are con-
cerned and it has been said that it maintains eternal youth
by an annual injection of monkey glands.

You have come here, and the others have returned,
with some definite ideas in your minds; you have a goal,
an objective to reach. In general, I suppose you would say
that you have come to get an education, to do well in studies.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 7

to learn as much as you can, to prepare for your career.
Then you want to play games, to make a team, you want
to meet other boys and make new friends and that is all
a vital part of this Ufe. Many of the 4,600 boys who have
been here speak of the friendships they made as being a
lifelong enjoyment to them.

When we think of it, I suppose we are all impressed by
the principle of growth which we see all around us — plants,
trees, animals and birds, life being nourished, Ufe being
multiplied. Of course the surroundings must be favourable
and help given to the young by the older of the same species
but the young thing must soon fend for itself and make the
most of its opportunities. Here at T.C.S. you have oppor-
tunities and you have talents; we want to bring them to-
gether. We hope the soil is favourable, the surroundings
helpful, and that you will receive assistance from those
who are more experienced so that you will make the most
of your God-given talents. But much will depend on you,
for you are largely now on your own.

To mention a few of the qualities which will help you,
i think of will power which is like the spark which drives
the pistons in an engine; it is so necessary, without it we
could be just a mass of flesh and bone as an engine without
the spark plugs is just a mass of metal. Then there is the
sense of direction, as important to us as a compass is to
a ship's captain. There is your attitude, the way you look
at life, constructive or destructive. There is something
known as staying power, the power to keep going, and
there is your ability to work with others. Those are very
helpful qualities to have — will power, a sense of direction,
the right attitude, staying power and the ability to work
with others.

In thinking of the many boys I have known and why
some seem to go farther than others I believe staying power
had much to do with it; staying power, coupled with a sense
of wonder, an alertness of mind, keeping vivid, wide awake,
really alive.

g TRINITY CX>IJ:.EGE SCHOOL. RECX>RD

Having a goal to work for certainly helps us to improve
our staying power and another help is being a "doer",
getting into the fray and making yourself count. The
more we do the more we find it is possible to do. Try to
be a fountain, not a cistern, for a fountain overflows but a
cistern merely contains.

Another help is to have a humble confidence in your-
self, knowing you are not alone in this life; there is always
at least One who is cheering you on in any worthwhile
effort. The principle of growth is operating in you in the
most marvellous of all ways and every day you can be a
stronger person than you were the day before. You won't
be so foolish as to worry, for worry is a disease which
weakens us, but you will take care, take pains, and you will
do your best every day. Genius, as most of us know, has
been called 99 percent hard work, but it has also been called
an infinite capacity for taking pains.

There is no greater satisfaction in life, no such real
enjoyment as discovering and using those amazing talents
which are hidden in you. We know that we have just
scratched the surface of our powers and it is a thrill to dig
down deeper and find the veins of precious metal. In our
north country muskeg and bush so often lie thick over the
countryside but men who work hard to clear off that over-
burden, as it is called, have discovered precioue ore un-
dreamed of in former years; and so it is with you. It would
be a shame if that ore were never discovered.

One often hears references to character, the character
of a man, the character of a School, and it is not too easy
to define character but if you will develop staying power,
a sense of direction, a good attitude, will power and the
ability to understand and work with others, then I am sure
you wUl develop character. "Sow a thought and reap an
act; sow an act and reap a habit; sow a habit and reap a
character; sow a character and reap a destiny.

If we have will power and a sense of direction we shall
control our thoughts and habits and it is true that they have

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 9

much to do with character. Character is destiny. And it is
still true that our whole future depends much on our
character.

There is one thing more in this life and it is all-impor-
tant, something which shows us the way and gives us power
to get there; it is the spirit of man which comes directly
from the great source of life which we call God.

You know how vital good spirit is on a team or in a
School. It is that something which enables the group to
drive together as one, each getting strength from the other,
and in some remarkable way the total power and ability
and enjoyment is much more than the sum of the parts.

In a much deeper way, real life is spiritual life. It is
more real and true because it is everlasting, changeless,
it affects every side of our life, it is aU-embracing and a
well spring of endless power and serenity.

We know that man is made in the likeness of God, for
one thing because he is endowed with a natural love for
truth, for beauty, for righteousness, and nothing, I suppose,
gives mortal man more real satisfaction than to grow in a
deeper understanding of the meaning of truth and beauty
and righteousness. When we thus grow we are surely
learning more of Christ's teaching for He told us all about
the spiritual life and He pointed the way to truth and
beauty and righteousness in every area of our life.

In our Chapel services, the most important part of our
life, we shall all be able to learn more fully the way, Christ's
way, but it does mean that we must give ourselves and try
sincerely to know His teaching and feel His presence. Man
is naturally religious, but for one reason or another that
vital side of his nature is sometimes never developed, never
even discovered. It is only through the religious life of the
world that we can come to understand the kingdom of God.
If we do our best to strengthen the religious life by working
with our churches we shall help to bring the family of man
closer to the Kingdom of God, and could anything be more
worthwhile. I think it helps each one of us if we can draw

apart for a time quite often during our week's work; if we
could come into this Chapel alone and just stay quietly we
would find that such a period of contemplation and medita-
tion would greatly enrich our lives.

Staying power will help, understanding and kindliness
are vital, and the strengthening of our spiritual life is all-
important. 'The spirit of man is the candle of the Lord,'
it shows the way and lightens the dark places. 'We shall
be strong and of a good courage, not afraid or dismayed,
for the Lord our God is with us, beside us, whithersoever
we go.' "

THERE IS NO ROYAL ROAD TO LEARNING

On October 7, Canon Lawrence spoke to the School,
basing his sermon on a quotation taken from Hebrews v. 8:
"Though he were a son, yet learned he obedience by the
things which he suffered."

We do not enter the world already educated, nor do
we have any privileged road set for us to obtain great
learning. Privilege secures only a degree without effort,
but not real learning. In fact, St. Luke tells us that "he
learned obedience by the things which he suffered."

One would be wrong to suppose that the Divine Son
owed obedience only to God. Musicians, writers, and car-
penters must all pay attention to and obey the rules
peculiar to their trade. In the same way, we must all give
some attention to everyone, regardless of race, religion, and
intellectual understanding. We are not free to do as we
please. We become useful citizens only after having learned
obedience. Similarly, Christ had to pay attention to and
heed the circumstances of the the life he chose to share.

Obedience and attention are connected as they are
both derivatives of a common root, the Latin verb audire,
to hear. While obedience implies the action, attention
refers to the final result. Attention involves the concentra-
tion of one's self on a definite idea. This is why our Lord
required his disciples to "give up everything and follow me."

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 11

Every teacher admits that successful teaching depends on
the attention of his students.

Divided attention is often the cause of such mental
disorders as a split personality. Only those obedient to the
condition involved reach the peak of learning.

In this sense, "the things which he suffered" refers
not to physical pain but rather to mental toleration. Our
Lord in his life at Nazareth was forced to tolerate certain
environmental conditions and also some of the more pain-
ful consequences of his life. This obedience in its fullness
is the knowledge of how to live properly the life of a man.

We find ourselves today in an age of ever-decreasing
"self-sufficiency." The necessity to be creative has almost
completely vanished under the effects of ready-made clothes,
pre-cooked food, mechanically produced music, and tele-
vision. What chance remains for the expression of one's
own personality?

The success of democracy depends on the ability of the
people to make decisions. This ability involves attention
and obedience. There is no royal road.

On October 14, Thanksgiving Sunday, Canon Bedford-
Jones spoke on the giving of thanks. His text came from
the Epistle of Saint Paul to the Corinthians; "He which
soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully."

We do not realize how much we owe to God and our
fellow man. We are dependent on God and our neighbours
for our existence, and we do little to give thanks unto our
benefactors.

This truth is clearly illustrated in the story of two
brothers who were invited to their uncle's home for dinner,
and were promised for dessert something that had taken
a thousand men to make. The two boys set off for their
imcle's place in high expectation and could hardly wait for
the dessert.

When the first course was finished and the table cleared
their aunt brought in the dessert. Much to their amaze-

-^2 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

ment and disappointment, however, the dessert turned out
to be a plum pudding. The boys thought that they had
been tricked and they demanded an explanation from their
uncle. The latter then related the story of the pudding, how
the flour from which it had been made had been sown and
harvested and milled by hundreds of workers and machines,
which in turn had been made by hundreds more workers
in factories, and how the flour had finally come to the end
of its journey in the grocery store where their aunt had
bought it to make the pudding. The boys then realized that
there were more to whom they owed thanks than met the
eye. Unfortunately, however, many people do not know
what they owe, and thanksgiving is neglected.

An only daughter was raised by her two loving parents
and they gave her all that she desired. However, as years
went on, the daughter took the kindness of her parents
for granted, and she became selfish. She referred to her
father as "the old man with the cheque book" and finally
she eloped and left her parents heart-broken. Shakespeare
once said: "How sharper than a serpent's tooth is it to
have a thankless child."

During the war, ten men were stranded in the ocean
on a tiny life-raft, and after several days adrift they seemed
doomed to certain starvation. They had all but given up
hope when they heard the drone of a search aircraft, and
in a short time they were picked up by a ship. Upon board-
ing the ship they went to the wireless office and sent a
message of thanksgiving to the crew of the aircraft.

We too should send messages to God through our
prayers and we should give that which we owe to him. As
Saint Paul said, the more one gives or puts into something,
the more in turn he gets out. This is one of the laws of
God, and God gives us the power to follow these laws or
do as we please, though he tries to persuade us to choose
the right path and follow him. The more we show thanks-
giving to the Lord the more we will benefit from following
his holy paths.

TRINITY CX3LLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 13

SHARING

On October 21, Mr. H. A. Mowat addressed the School
at the Sunday afternoon service. He began by pointing out
the position of the peoples of European origin in the modern
world. We occupy the areas of temperate climate, own
eighty percent of the world's resources, and live in comfort
without fear of hardship. However, the peoples of other
races, who constitute two-thirds of the world's population,
live crowded into the less favourable regions of the world,
primarily the tropical countries, amid poverty and disease.

In colonial times, the European powers fought for the
world's backward areas, taking possession by subduing
their inhabitants without considering their rights. The
unfortunate position of many non-Europeans today is there-
fore a hangover of western imperialism. It is our irrespon-
sibility to help these underprivileged people to obtain their
rightful share of the world's riches. The bearing of others'
burdens, we were reminded, is a fulfillment of the Christian
way of life which emphasizes the subordination of power
to love, and the principle of sharing. Our democratic ideas
make it possible for us to choose between the Christian
assistance or selfish neglect of the world's less fortunate
peoples; we must realize and act on our responsibility, to
prevent conflict in the future.

Mr. Mowat continued by advising us to follow the valuable
examples of Sir William Osier, whom he believed to be the
most accomplished of T.C.S. Old Boys and Canada's most
distinguished son. Not only should we live in tight daily
"compartments," as Osier suggested in his book, "A Way
of Life," we should strive to display some of his outstand-
ing concern over human suffering and the sacredness of
life, which is typical of all great Christians. Another of
Osier's admirable qualities was his strong belief in the
necessity of prompt and sincere thanks. Mr. Mowat con-
cluded his address, therefore, by urging us always, both
at school and everywhere afterwards, to be quick in ex-
pressing appreciation for our many privileges and blessings.

THE HOUSE OF GOD

On October 28, the School was greatly honoured to
have the Rev. J. Mockridge, the brother of our oldest living
Old Boy, speak in Sunday chapel.

For his text, Mr. Mockridge took the words of Jacob,
"This is none other than the House of God; this is the
Gate of Heaven." These words were not, as one would
expect, spoken in a magnificent cathedral by some im-
portant person, but they were said by Jacob, who was
selfish, dishonest, and crafty, had cheated his father and
brother and was running for his life. He had forced his
brother Esau to give up his birthright in return for food,
and had fooled his father who was blinded with age into
giving him the blessing. Jacob was in a dark, lonely place,
frightened and exhausted. That night, however, he had
a dream in which he saw angels ascending and descending
to and from Heaven. He heard also the voice of God telling
him that he would prosper, having fruitful lands and many
descendants, and that God would be with him.

When he awoke, despite the dream and his lack of
knowledge about God, Jacob vowed that, if God would be
with him, he would recognize the existence of God and
give one-tenth of his wealth to Him. Despite his miscon-
ception, God was with this man Jacob, who had been wicked
and knew so little of God as to think he could barter with
Him.

A famous writer once said that a person has three
characters. The first is that which he is to himself, the
second what he is in the minds of others, and finally what
he is in the eyes of God. God saw in Jacob something that
Jacob could not see in himself. Jacob now spent his life
serving God, growing to understand him more fully than
ever before. Even though Jacob had made mistakes in his
life, he raised his children to serve God well, and was con-
sequently respected by his descendants. Hence it may be
seen that God can see in us what we don't see in ourselves.

TRINTTY COLi,EGE SCHOOL. RECORD

Referring once more to the text, "This is none other
than the House of God," one notices that we differ a good
deal from Jacob. We are not essentially bad, we are not
running for our lives, and we are not forced to see the
House of God in a lonely place. Our chapel was built for
us without our help, and has been given to us as a gift.
Indeed, the House of God as we today know it differs from
Jacob's conception.

It is said that a church is built as a covering for the
altar — this is quite true. The altar is a dinner table where
we celebrate a meal with bread and wine, the body and
blood of Christ. As we grow older, we learn to appreciate
more fully the teachings concerning the altar. Part of the
altar is the cross on which Jesus died, not in trouble or
because He deserved to, but because He was unselfish and
willing to give his life for us and for our salvation.

This "House of God" tells us of a God whom we may
know as one of ourselves. He entered the world as an infant
in a stable, passed from youth to manhood, and became a
teacher, speaking the truth to all people, until his death
on the cross while still a young man. He is our God and
this is His house. If this is so, we should then make a
larger place for His house in our lives. The Gloria, repeated
many times in chapel, is like a cheer for God and our
recognition of the fact that it is to Him that we give thanks.
In concluding, Mr. Mockridge told the School to remember
the story of Jacob, then think of His house into which we
come and appreciate it more fully in our daily lives.

THE LAWRENCEVnXE TOURNAMENT

T.C.S. has again been invited to take part in this famous
hockey tournament held in Princeton, N.J. Eight schools
are participating and the games will be played from De-
cember 20th to 22nd.

Terry Hall is Captain of the School team and Dave
Cape, Vice-Captain, and after a few practices it would seem
as if we shall have another good team:

The other schools in the tournament are:

Lawrenceville (650 boys)

Choate (500 boys)

Deerfield (500 boys)

Nichols (350 boys)

St. Paul's (450 boys)

Taft (350 boys)

T.C.S. won the Tournament in January 1953 and 1954
with teams captained by Mike dePencier and Ron Johnston
respectively.

THE NEW BOYS* HALLOWE'EN PARTY

The bell ends and we are off to get changed for Trinity's
annual Hallowe'en Party. First on the agenda is the obstacle
course. The Prefects have certainly made it tough; but
what's this? . . . Hall and English are going to show us
how to run it, well, let's see. They're off to a flying start
but somehow this race is fixed. Cape and McKnight, who
are holding a mat across the pommel horse, let Hall through
but when English comes to it he has a little trouble. Of
course Binnie disqualifies Hall (natch, he's in Bethune).

^g TRINITY CX)LLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

Well, now for the New Boys ; Brent vs. Bethune. They start
off on even terms. Everyone is killing himself to get
through the obstacle course but somehow Brent has a better
team and wins.

Down at the pool the apple bobbing contest begins.
Binnie roars for silence, recites the rules and says "jump."
There's a flying melee of hands and feet and a crunching
of heads meeting heads. Most of them swallow the pool
before some genius decides to push the apples against the
wall to make it easier. Bethune must be cheating — or else
they've imported a bunch of seals. We charge but not for
long; someone yells "food" and there's a general rush.
Here's Binnie again blocking the door to the dining room:
this is too much; we push and struggle and we're in. After
gorging ourselves with food they let the others in for some
crumbs. The chocolate bar hunt comes next in the gym-
nasium and some Prefects try a new dodge, hiding the bars
on themselves. They regret it. All in all the party is a
great success and fun for all.

FIFTH AND SIXTH FORMS VISIT TRENTON

On Wednesday, November 14, all members of the Fifth
and Sixth Forms donned their new cadet uniforms and
travelled to the R.C.A.F. station at Trenton.

Upon their arrival, the group was welcomed by the
Commanding Officer and the programme of activities was
outlined. This included a visit to the Radarscope of the
Ground-Controlled Approach system, a close view of several
of the types of aircraft used by the R.C.A.F., a visit to the
meteorological and flying control sections, and lastly an
excursion flight in a Dakota aircraft. The groups, guided
by three staff members, were then conducted on their
various activities.

Our cadets kept their four guides busy answering ques-
tions concerning jet aircraft, the theory of flight, meteor-
ology, and so on. Thus they added considerably to their

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 19

previous knowledge concerning the function and operation
of an air base. Shortly afterwards, the group had dinner
in the airmen's mess which concluded a most interesting
day at the station.

THE SUEZ CRISIS

On the evening of Sunday, November 11, an informal
debate was held in the dining hall. Discussion centred
around the recent crisis in the Suez, and was designed to
give the boys in Fifth and Sixth Forms a further insight
into the present critical world situation. After an intro-
duction by Dr. Ketchum, Mr. Hodgetts commenced the dis-
cussion with a description of power politics and its effect
during the last century. Mr. Brown gave an excellent talk
about "why the Suez Canal belongs to Egypt," giving us
an insight into the views of Colonel Nasser. The next
speaker, Mr. White, maintained that Britain was justified
in her action because of the unreliability of Nasser, He
pointed out that Britain's wheels of industry rely on the
Suez waterway. There was no one to give the Russian
viewpoint, but Mr. Dale gave a good account of what the
U.N. and Canada are doing to help solve the crisis.

The debate was now opened to the floor for general
discussion. When this discussion had finished. Dr. Ketchum
then introduced the guest of the evening, Mr. Max Le Mar-
chant of Cobourg, who had made a study of the Near East
and lived there for several years. For the balance of the
evening, he spoke of the history of Suez, and the causes
and factors involved. He sympathized most of the time with
the Egyptian viewpoint.

The entire discussion was a success, and the School
is grateful to Mr. Le Marchant and the masters who con-
tributed to this most interesting conference on the Suez

OXFORD CUP

The Oxford Cup race was run on Friday, November 17,
which was a cold and windy day. Of the ten contestants
who entered, eight finished the hard four point two mile
cross-country race. The winner, Bob Hart, won with a time
of twenty-five minutes thirty-nine seconds, extremely good
under such bad running conditions. The order in which the
boys finished is as follows : Bob Hart, Tom TurnbuU, Charles
Colby, Hugh Gordon, John Braden, Peter Wurtele, Mike
Powell and Fred Gordon. The first three finished very close
together, Bob Hart, Hugh Gordon and Charlie Colby giving
Bethune House a win by four points.

Congratulations go to Bob Hart for a race well run.
The first five to finish received half first team colours.

REMEMBRANCE DAY PARADE

It was overcast and cold as the School fell in at 9.45
to take part in the Remembrance Day Service at the town
Cenotaph. The Corps marched downtown led by Cadet
Squadron Leader Dunbar to join the parade consisting of
Navy cadets, Army Militia, Boy Scouts and Girl Guides.
At the Cenotaph the parade made a square around the
memorial with the Earlscourt Citadel Band providing the
music for the hymns. A group of trumpeters from our ban^
sounded the Last Post and Reveille. Special praise was
given to the band, under band sergeant Adam Saunders,
for their excellent showing.

LIBRARY NOTES

Thanks to a hard-working corps of librarians, the
Library has been able to keep up its high standard of service.
Many new books have been added to our shelves this fall;
to November 10 these totalled one hundred and forty-six.
Many of these were donations, and we take this opportunity

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 21

of thanking such good friends as Canon Stewart, Mrs. John
Moss, Mrs. S. C. Goering, P. H. Lewis, Esq., and R. Savage
for their generosity. Frequent gifts of magazines have also
been made by Col. F. B. Wilson in England.

By the time this goes to press, we expect the new shelf
for paper-backed editions to be in use. This will enable us
to buy books we could not ordinarily afford, and if the
demand for any of them warrants it, we can then purchase
a more permanent edition, knowing it to be worthwhile.
Other new features this year include "Mr. Scott's Shelf"
on which he puts half a dozen books which he specially
recommends, and the English Reference Shelf on which are
isolated those reference books of greatest use to Middle and
Upper School English candidates. More recent is the
Current Affairs section where pamphlets and magazines
devoted mainly to the current world situation are displayed.

So far this year the number of books circulated (avera-
ging about eighty a week) is 57% higher than last year,
but we are still trying to reach the hard core of boys who
never seem to read at all. Fortunately, this group is shrink-
ing, and perhaps by June we shall be able to report that
it is as extinct as the Dodo.

Six of the nineteen boys in this form could be classed as
candidates of considerable promise; only one in the form
would seem to be among a selected group from the top five
percent of Grade XIII students in the Province on the basis
of the tests written in April (Scholastic Aptitude, School
and College Ability, and Reading Test) . He won the highest
number of first class honours — six. Under the circumstances,
95% passes and 74% honours would seem a pretty good
effort.

Most first class honours (75% + ) were obtained in
Chemistry, 10; 6 in Algebra, 5 in French Authors, 5 in
Modern History, 4 in English Literature, 4 in Physics; but
we are far from satisfied with the number of firsts.

The majority of failures came in VI B. There were
twenty-one boys in this form, none of whom had achieved
averages of better than 65% in the V Form or Grade XII
work, and most of whom were just above or just below
60%. The results were as follows:

It will be seen that more boys failed in French than in
any other subject. This class was weak in language work,
not even doing well in their native tongue, but they should
have had more success.

Some comments may be in order:

(1) The VI Form boys of 1955-1956 were a particularly
good all-round group but not many of them were real
scholars.

(2) They took a full part in the life of the School and
will be better citizens for it but some of them could
possibly ill afford to spend time on anything but school
work.

(3) This year there were fifteen more candidates than in
1955 and they wrote 142 more papers.

(4) In many schools VIB boys would not have attempted
the full programme of nine papers.

(5) A year ago I remarked to the staff that the Upper
School students were not, as a group, very strong
scholars and that they were all attempting full courses
which meant a real challenge to our teaching. The
Aptitude Tests written in April by Grade XIII pupils
in Ontario show that with one exception all our VIB
boys were in the bottom 50% in GJeneral Mathematical
or Verbal ability, or in both. The one exception passed
all his papers, with seven honours. The VIA boys made
much better scores but again they were not among

TRINITY C0IJ:.EGE SCHOOL RECORD 25

the top four hundred in the Province on the basis of
the April Aptitude Tests.

(6) It seems obvious that most teachers of Grade XIII sub-
jects in Ontario are preparing their classes principally
to write examinations, and we may have to follow suit
more than we have in the past. I do not believe this
type of preparation is best for University work, or for
general education.

(7) It is rare now for T.C.S. boys to spend two years in
our Sixth Form: some other schools urge boys to do
so in order that they may win scholarships, but the
added year might be more profitably spent in graduate
work.

(8) The Upper School examinations are the only external
examinations pupils write until the end of their Uni-
versity work. There is naturally a certain strain and
anxiety created and when the first paper is as unusual
and diificult as the first paper last June, Greometry,
some candidates are confused and disheartened and do
not make as capable an effort as they might.

(9) T.C.S. boys learn much in addition to their book work
and it stands them in good stead in later years. In
proportion to the numbers entering Universities it is
unlikely that any other group has done so well both
in scholarships won within the Universities and in the
many educational activities which are an important
part of the life of Universities,

(10) But we are striving more than ever to raise still
further the standard of class work throughout the
School: the best students can win more honours, the
borderline boys can be more sure of passing. Measures
have already been taken and are being taken to this end.

DISTINCTIVELY CANADIAN

As autumn's paint brush splashes its multitude of
colours over Canada's northeastern forests, a strange and
wonderful annual event begins. Birds of many sorts con-
gregate together into their various families and prepare
for the great migration, the exodus from the advancing
cold waves of oncoming winter, to their warm retreats in
the south.

Among the last to leave is a small but famous stock
of birds called Canadian Snow Geese. These birds, named
for their almost completely white feather coat, are among
the largest of the world's geese. By the time the yoimg

30 TRINITY CXDLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

fowl, hatched in the spring, are ready to fly south, they
weigh from fifteen to twenty-five pounds and have a wing
span from four to five feet. A full grown snow goose may
weigh from thirty to forty pounds. This is a far cry from
their cousin, the Canada Goose, which, at full growth,
weighs, on the average, only fifteen pounds. The strength
of the snow goose is proportional to his weight and size.
It has, on occasion, been known to break a man's arm by
flying at him and striking him with a wing.

Twenty years ago, snow geese were plentiful and re-
producing at a normal rate. However, due to a disease
which was killing off their young, their numbers decreased
critically over the years. In 1948, they had been depleted
to a dangerous state of about four or five thousand, and
were rapidly becoming extinct. In order to remedy this,
the Audubon Society of Canada set up a research organiza-
tion, whose aim was to find the killer of the flock. As a
result of their efforts, the birds have tripled their num-
bers in the past seven years, and are still increasing. It is
interesting to note that this is one of the few cases in which
man has been able to save a species from extinction.

On their trip south they rest on the mud flats of the
St. Lawrence River, about thirty miles east of Quebec City.
Here they remain for nearly two weeks, feeding on the
coarse grain which thrives in this area. Because they feed
on grain and have eating habits similar to those of domestic
fowl, they make an excellent dish and their meat is a happy
medium between that of wild duck and roasted turkey.

For this reason, they are "the hunter's dream" and
attract sportsmen from near and far every fall. I say
'sportsmen' because, indeed, that is what one must be to
shoot these valuable birds. They are, in fact, very in-
telligent and will not fly low enough to present a hunter
with an easy target. To shoot them, it is necessary to dig
a pit, walled with logs, and place over it a camouflaged
cover with slats in it through which the birds may be seen.
When they come into sight, attracted by painted tin decoys,
the cover is thrown off and some rapid shooting commences.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 31

Even this is tricky. The snow geese have a protective breast
plate of oily down which is almost impenetrable to even
a high gauge shot. This means that they must be shot from
behind, in order to get under the feathers. Because of all
this difficulty in shooting the geese, only a few are actually
shot each year; on the average, about five hundred.

As with all things of this sort, a record has been set
for the greatest number shot in one season. However, this
time it seems to have been done in a rather unusual un-
orthodox way.

Several years ago a local farmer discovered that one
of his prize dairy cows had died of an unknown cause.
Deciding to make the best of his plight, he proceeded to
skin the dead animal, build a frame large enough for a man
to sit comfortably inside, and stretch the deceased cow's
exterior over it, cutting a trap in the top. For several days
he let a horse haul his masterpiece around the marshes in
a flat boat, so that the birds would get used to it. Needless
to say, when he eventually put his invention to use, it paid
a great dividend. He gained a phenomenal score because,
intelligent as the birds were, they were quite incapable of
understanding how a cow could float around in the marsh
shooting at them. So too, for several days were the inven-
tor's fellow hunters. When, however, they did investigate
more closely, the habitant was, by popular consent, obliged
to quit for the season. The incident caused so much in-
dignation at the unfair competition that, it is said, a rumour
was circulated that a by-law had been passed, forbidding
hunters to hide inside cows, deceased or otherwise, while
shooting geese.

When the season is ended, with the coming of the snow
and the freezing of the river, the geese proceed upon their
journey south. As their great wings lift them from the
marshes and the mud flats, and they congregate overhead,
they look for all the world like a great snow cloud until,
at last, they take up their V-formation and bid Canada
good-bye with a multitude of flapping wings.

Christmas is a Holy Day

He came with us to stay:

Through gallant hearts each year by year,

Though times oppress, we draw more near

To His abiding way.

CHRISTMAS 1939

If now above our darkened earth

A star was bom, defying night,
Would we not too suspect its birth,

And point destruction at the light?

If in our Parliament, a boy

Taught truth to leaders of our race,

Would they not murmur to destroy
So strange a voice, in such a place?

If in this warring time, a man

Refused the gods of force and greed.

Would he escape our human plan

Whereby the sons of Europe bleed? —

Our life his drink, where soldiers mix
Poison with wine; our words his whips;

Our faithlessness his crucifix;

Our fear the blows that bruise his lips;

Each month of war a hammered nail
Hanging his flesh from groaning wood: —

Thunder has torn the lying veil.
He, not the world, has understood.

THE LAST RACE

Only two more hours 'til starting time. My mechanic
is doing the last minute adjustments on the engine and
checking the brakes and steering.

The other drivers are pacing around impatiently or
getting a bite to eat.

With fifteen minutes to go, we wheel the cars out to
the starting line and adjust our crash helmets. Two minutes!
Most of us are already behind the wheel and those that
are not are scrambling in. The high-powered engines spring
to life with a roar.

The flag goes down! The cars leap forward amid dust
and smoke from the tires. We go faster and faster until
the noise of the engine reaches a high whine. I am abreast
of two cars and the first bend is coming up. I'm forced over
onto the outside and a red car goes past me. On the
straight I pass him along with two other cars. I'm in third
place!

The next bend I get on the inside; the car in front of
me forces it and skids! I'm going towards him! I swing
wide and miss him as he turns over and goes off the road.
Now I'm in second place! Two other cars are close behind
me. The next curve — a hairpin turn! We gear down! the
car in front of me gets through but the two behind pile up
on the retaining wall. Still in second place, I battle it out
vdth number one well behind into the second lap. On the
second bend I hit an oil patch! Oily skids. My steering and
brakes are useless. A car comes sliding around the bend!
He skids and hits the back of my car! I'm out of the oil!
Ive dropped down to fourth place and three cars are on my
tail.

On the next curve I catch up with the number three car
— I'm abreast of him! We battle it out until I skid and hit
him, pushing him off the road. I jump into third place. The
three of us are in the lead by ourselves. For the next two
laps we hold the same positions.

34 TRINITY COLi^EGE SCHOOL. RECORD

During the fifth lap, number one's engine burns up and
he grinds to a halt. Now only two of us are in the battle
for first place! We round the next bend and find ourselves
facing two spinning cars which have hit the oil patch! The
car in front of me fails to find an opening and turns over,
burstmg into flames! I get through! I'm in the lead! In
the next lap more cars pile up on the hairpin bend ahnost
bloclang the road. I gear down to slow up. I get through
the small gap! Two cars are on my tail! They stay there
until one of them loses a wheel and goes over the side. On
the straight I gain more and more speed! One twenty, one
thirty, one forty, one fifty, fifty-five, sixty! I slam into a
shght curve. I see a car spinning in the middle of the road!
1 jump on the brakes! Slam the wheel over!

I skid! I come closer to the car!

I'm out of control! Closer! Closer!

There's a sickening crash! Flames and

Jagged steel encircle me! Everything goes

black! My last race is over.

VERSES FROM THE SHEPHERDS' HYMN

We saw Thee in Thy balmy nest.

Young dawn of our eternal day;
We saw Thine eyes break from the East,

And chase the trembling shades away:
We saw Thee, and we blest the sight.
We saw Thee by Thine own sweet light.

To Thee, meek Majesty, soft King

Of simple graces and sweet loves!
Each of us his lamb will bring,

Each his pair of silver doves!
At last, in fire of Thy fair eyes.
Ourselves become our own best sacrifice!

CYPRUS

In the north-east section of the Mediterranean Hes a
small island which is taking more than its share of head-
Imes in the world today. This island is Cyprus. Two-thirds
of its 425,000 inhabitants are Greek, or of Greek origin; the
remainder are Turkish. In the last few months, British rule
m Cyprus has become very shaky because of the fighting
on this small island.

During recent months, Cypriots have been raiding small
convoys and throwing bombs into stores and homes, as
well as on the streets. Until a recent curfew, Britain has
been unsuccessful in her attempts to quell the fighting that
has affected all parts of the island.

Unlike many other people in the world, the Greek
Cypriots want union with Greece and not free home rule. This
is harder for Britain to accept than the latter, for to give
an island to another country involves problems for the other
islanders not of Greek origin. But through actions and
words, the Cypriots have indicated that they will not stop
fighting until they are driven off the islands, or the British
done away with.

The smaller portion of the population, the Turks, are
beginning to realize that union with Turkey is out of the
question. Even though they do not like it, they must now
stick by Britain and her forces. If England decides to give
up the island, the Turks may well find themselves out in
the Mediterranean Sea.

Now to the British point of view of this strategically
situated island. From here, Britain can watch and defend
her many interests in the Near East, especially her oil.
With the crisis in the Suez, some troops from England and
France are using Cyprus as a base and "jumping-off point"
in case of trouble. With the "Big Rock" in the west and
Cyprus in the east, in time of war the Mediterranean Sea
would remain safe to shipping from marine attack at least.
To lose another colony and base would be disastrous to
Britain's already dropping prestige.

36 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

To sum up the situation, Cyprus is a small island with
a small population pitted against a great power. It seems
obvious that Britain with all her troops could step in and
wipe out the island. In view of the world situation, this is
unlikely, as it would give Russia good propaganda and would
create greater world tension. When and how a settlement
will be reached will be told by time only.

THE FIRST MERCY

Ox and ass at Bethlehem
On a night, ye know of them:
We were only creatures small
Hid by shadows on the wall.

We were swallow, moth and mouse;
The Christ was born in our house,
And the bright eyes of us three
Peeped at His Nativity.

Hands of peace upon that place
Hushed our beings for a space —
Quiet feet and folded wing,
Not a sound of anything.

With a moving star we crept
Closer when the Baby slept:
Men who guarded where He lay
Moved to frighten us away.

But the Babe, awakened, laid
Love on things that were afraid.
With so sweet a gesture He
Called us to His company.

INTERLUDE

A stocky-olive-skinned man was walking with a strong
and carefree stride along the country lane. He whistled
gaily as if to show anyone who might notice his heroically
battered uniform that he had seen hard times. He screwed
up his eyes as he looked into the hot Italian sky. Then,
blinking, he traced the geometric designs of the surrounding
vineyards to their fusion in the distance over the gently
undulating hills. A persistent ache in his bones from walk-
ing along those dusty roads went unnoticed as he thought
of Gina.

His name was Antonio. He had been fighting in a
rebellion against the government, and recalled painfully the
recent dispersion of his band of heroes when their ammuni-
tion had given out. Antonio himself had been a successful
leader in some of his band's escapades. But now that the
cause was lost, he was going home to claim the hand of his
beloved Gina.

Antonio hastened his step, for there were only a few
miles to go before he would reach his little village. Since
his throat was parched, he looked around for a house to
relieve his thirst. He saw a small, white, block-like building
ahead and decided to ask for a drink. As he drew close, he
saw a figure working busily beside a house among the vines.

The labourer turned at his greeting and Antonio
recognized him instantly. The man dropped his hoe on the
sunbaked earth and ran forward to greet his old friend.

"How are you, Antonio?" he said, warmly shaking his
hand.

Antonio rephed, '"It's great to see you again, Rici!"
Soon the two were chatting excitedly over a glass of heady
wine. When Antonio asked afer Gina, his friend's smile
laded.

"Oh, I haven't seen her for some time, you know. But
tell me, Antonio, do you still want to marry her?"

"Oh, yes!" replied Antonio emphatically.

38 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

"I have heard," said the other guardedly, "that she
has been seeing your friend Pieta."

"Oh, really," said Antonio coolly.

Then, unexpectedly, Rici said, "I hope that she's good
enough for you, Antonio."

"Of course she is!" said Antonio, hotly, and he abruptly
took his leave.

As Antonio's feet began, once again, to swing with a
measured beat on the road, his thoughts turned to Gina.
So Pieta has been seeing her, he mused. "No!" he said,
aloud, "Pieta wouldn't play such a trick on me." But there
was uncertainty in his voice.

He remembered the days when he and Gina used to
wander the countryside, very much absorbed in the hap-
piness of each other's company. He recalled her smiling
eyes and her classical face, which might have been sculp-
tured by an enraptured Michael Angelo. He remembered
how her hair fell in strands of burnished ebony onto her
shoulders.

Antonio walked to the brow of the hill beyond which
lay the village. He didn't stop to look at the familiar scene,
but hurried on, straight past his own house, he glanced
over his shoulder, however, to make sure that no one had
seen him do so. Antonio paused before Gina's house. Then,
stepping forward, he gave three hard knocks to the roughly
hewn door. He knew he was nervous and could feel his
heart thumping loudly. Gina's mother opened the door.

"Why, Antonio — you're back! Come in! Come in!"

"Thank you, Mrs. Cellini, but where's Gina?" asked
Antonio eagerly.

"Why, Antonio, Gina has married your old friend Pieta.
Didn't you hear?"

SPORTS EDITORIAL

And so ends another successful season of football with
T.C.S. sharing the Little Big Four laurels with S.A.C. After
losing the opener, perhaps some people had their doubts
but the team lost nothing in willpower and determination
and that was the only defeat in the whole season. Mr.
Lawson is to be congratulated on his team's success in
his first year of coaching it. With almost the whole team
returning, we wish them luck for next year. We have been
on top of the heap now four times in the last seven years,
a record almost as good as the three out of four champion-
ships from 1908-1911.

Mr. Heard in his first year of coaching at the School
produced a fast-starting, hard-hitting team using his own
adaptation of the single wing. Middleside made many fine
runners and blockers out of boys who have never played
before and have developed five or six stars for next year's
Bigside. Littleside, who were not too promising at first,
came back to show that Mr. Landry never misses in creating
a firm and potent team.

Both leagues fought it out to the last with the Whizzers
taking the Groundhogs in the dark, while Mr. Massey's
Monsters swept Mr. Dale's Demons in a gruelling match.

LITTLE BIG FOUR FOOTBALL

Trinity College School, 20; Saint Andrew's College, 27
October 20

Under an overcast October sky, drizzling steadily upon
the T.C.S. gridiron, the undefeated Trinity team received
its first defeat at the hands of a hard-charging, hard-play-
ing S.A.C. squad. The final score proved to be 27-20 for
our visitors.

In the first quarter both teams played possession ball,
hoping to power their way through centre or break a man
loose around the end. However, as rugged tackling on both
sides prevented much headway in either direction, a kick-
ing duel developed between Hall of T.C.S. and Muirhead
of S.A.C. Terry Hall had the edge, and with the minute
flag up, lifted a boot clean over the S.A.C. deadline for
the point.

In the second quarter S.A.C. flashed its suspected
power when they broke Muirhead loose off tackle several
times, twice culminating in long range TDs. Their first
convert attempt fell short of the cross-bar, but the second
neatly split the uprights. Both teams fought with bruising
power in the dying minutes of the quarter, but to no avail.
S.A.C. led at the half, 13-1.

Trinity's opening attack in the second half failed to
succeed, and after taking Hall's punt, the Saint's again

sent Muirhead into the clear on a long touchdown gallop.
The convert was good. A T.C.S. march was again thwarted
when Muirhead intercepted a pass, and hung up TD number
four several plays later. Once again the convert was suc-
cessful.

Carrying a 27-1 deficit, a very spirited, determined
T.C.S. team turned the S.A.C. kick-off into a touchdown
march. After several short gains through the line, Al Shier
dropped back behind solid blocking and rifled a long pass
to a fleet-footed Terry Hall who snagged the ball on the
S.A.C. ten and went all the way. Dave Marett's unsuccessful
convert attempt hit the goal-post and bounced "in the wrong
direction."

In the opening minutes of the foiu*th quarter, a
charging Trinity line blocked Muirhead's punt and re-
covered the ball. After a first down had been gained around
the end, Rusty Dunbar threw a perfect strike to Hall who
sprinted into the end zone for the score. A well-executed
convert brought the score up to 27-14, S.A.C. leading.

At this point the Saints found trouble no matter what
they tried, as T.C.S. defenders swarmed into their back-
field before the play had materialized. It was anybody's
ball game now.

With five minutes to go, Trinity ball, Al Shier faded
back into his passing pocket and fired another superb pass
to Hall, galloping into the end zone for his third touch-
down of the day. A convert attempt failed, and S.A.C. re-
tained their now shaky lead of 27-20.

The Saints scoop up the resulting kick-off, but fumble
on the next play. T.C.S. recovers. Signals are called. A
maroon sweater sprints around right end. It's Hall on the
option play. He looks, throws to Adam . . . incomplete. No,
interference called against S.A.C! T.C.S. first down on the
Saint Andrew's thirty! Less than a minute to go, another
pass . . . incomplete! Last play of the game. Shier fades,
looks, throws . . . incomplete and the game is over! S.A.C.
comes out on top, 27-20,

Canada College 14-13 on a last minute sleeper play. The
race is on!

FOOTBALL

Trinity College School, 14; Bishop Ridley College, 13
October 27

Bigside's second game in this year's Little Big Four
campaign was a 14-13 victory over Ridley at U.C.C. The
weather was strictly football weather: a cool day, bright
sunlight, little wind, and soft turf. It was estimated that
fifteen hundred people watched the battle.

T.C.S. kicked-off to a Ridley backfielder who was up-
ended at his ovsTi twenty. Ridley failed to make a first down
and punted out of danger. After several running plays,
gaining two first downs, Rusty Dunbar completed a thirty-
five yard pass play to Terry Hall who dodged several
potential Ridley tacklers and crossed the goal line standing
up. Dave Marett's convert made it 7-0.

The play continued quickly and smoothly, both teams
making strong marches, but running out of steam as they
neared the opposing goal line. In the opening minutes of
the second quarter a determined Ridley team fought their
v/ay downfield to the Trinity ten yard line. From there, a
deceptive hand-off did the trick with Powell crashing over
centre and ploughing his way into the end zone. The convert
was wide.

The game resumed its rugged, sea-saw type of play,
neither side showing distinct superiority. A routine back-
field lateral brought disaster to T.C.S. when the backfielder
was hit from behind and the resulting throw was picked
off by Ridley's Matheson v/ho outran the opposition to make
the Tiger score. The convert attempt was again wide.
Minutes later the half ended, with Ridley leading 12-7.

The second half began as the first had ended. Solid
blocking enabled both teams to gain good yardage, both

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 43

along the ground and in the air, but hard tackling prevented
any score from being made. A potential Ridley scoring
attack was driven into the ground at the T.C.S. thirty, but
Dunlop kicked a beauty over the T.C.S. deadline, to increase
the Ridley lead to 13-7.

It was well into the last quarter when Trinity put on a
sustained downfield march. Gaping holes were slashed in
the Ridley defence by Trinity's line, and were quickly utilized
by the T.C.S. backfield. When these gaps were filled by
reinforcements, the Trinity team successfully completed
pass plays to continue the drive. The march was culminated
by a touchdown when Al Shier plunged over from six yards
out. The convert attempt was not successful, leaving the
ball game all tied up at 13-13, with less than five minutes
to go.

After the kick-off, Ridley found itself unable to get
anywhere against a fighting Trinity defense and the Trinity
team took over the ball. At this point the T.C.S. squad was
really on fire, well on their way to another touchdown. Then
the minute flag began to wave menacingly from the northern
sideline. T.C.S. went into punt formation with Terry Hall
deep. Brit Mockridge's snap was good, and the kick sailed
over outstretched Ridley fingers and across the deadline for
an automatic point. Trinity took over the lead by a one
point margin, 14-13.

The Ridley team gained possession on their own twenty
yard line, with a matter of seconds left to play. Two long
passes were attempted but smothered by a determined
T.C.S. defense. The flag dropped and the game was over.
T.C.S. - 14. B.R.C. - 13.

Meanwhile at Aurora UC.C. had upset Saint Andrew's
13-6, and the Little Big Four was all tied up, each team
having one loss and one win.

44 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

Trinity College School, 9; Upper Canada College, 1.
November 3, 1956, at U.C.C.

Saturday, November 3, like the previous Saturday, was
a glorious day for football. Clear skies and solid turf pro-
vided excellent conditions for the offensive strategy of
both teams, and gave promise of a really great gridiron
battle. For both schools this would be their last and most
crucial game, for, with the winner of the afternoon game
up at Aurora, the victor would be co-champion of the Little
Big Four. The Trinity squad had come in from Port Hope
that morning and were out on the field well before kick-
off time at 10.30. This being U.C.C.'s home game, T.C.S.
was given the choice and elected to receive.

Trinity ran the Upper Canada kick-off back to their
own forty before succumbing to a swarm of blue-shirted
tacklers. After an initial series of running plays had stalled,
T.C.S. was forced to kick. From this point on, tremendous
defensive line play by each team caused frequent exchange
of possession of the ball. Late in the quarter Trinity's Al
Shier rifled a thirty yard pass to Dave Marett who was
hit and dropped on the U.C.C. thirty-five. After a series
of line plunges had brought the ball down to the six, Al
Shier sprinted through a giant hole, neatly eluded a U.C.C.
secondary, and crossed the goal line standing up for the
touchdown. Dave Marett's convert attempt was good, and
T.C.S. led 7-0.

U.C.C. was in possession of the ball for most of the
second quarter, but due to the powerful tackling of the
T.C.S. defenders, notably Colin McNairn, Doug Higgins,
Blaine Bowen, John Mockridge, Kenny Scott, Tim Kennish,
and Pete Perrin, they were unable to push it over for a
score. Their final attempt, a long touchdown-bound pass,
was slapped down in the Trinity end zone. At this point
the Maroon and Black began to roll again, but were stopped
by the clock on the U.C.C. thirty-four. On the last play
of the half, the U.C.C. backfielder, upon receiving Terry

TRINITY CJOLI.EGE SCHOOL RECORD 45

Hall's punt, was bowled over by Blaine Bowen in the end
zone, giving Trinity an 8-0 half-time lead.

In the second half both teams played possession foot-
ball, preferring to batter their way along the ground to
the gamble of a wide open aerial game. This was partly
due to the highly successful Trinity pass defense which
covered the receivers so closely that their passer was often
caught before he could find an opening. U.C.C.'s game
record: twelve passes thrown, three complete, one inter-
cepted.

Late in the third quarter, T.C.S. was rouged by College
tacklers after a beautiful sixty-five yard kick by U.C.C.'s
John Schley.

The U.C.C. team seemed to catch inspiration from this
fine effort, and after changing ends going into the fourth
quarter, they began a determined downfield march. Once
again it was the watchfulness of the T.C.S. pass defense
which saved the day when Colin McNairn leaped high into
the air to intercept a pass and run it back to the U.C.C.
thirty before being knocked out of bounds. An end run
and pass attempt failed to click, and Trinity was forced to
punt. After receiving Terry Hall's kick, the U.C.C. back-
fielder was downed by Rick Newland behind the goal line
for the point.

Five minutes to go, and the College was far from con-
ceding the game. They started on their own twenty and
desperately fought their way over the midfield stripe and
down into Trinity territory. With the minute flag up, a
U.C.C. backfielder faded, trying to find a pass receiver who
had shaken himself loose . . . there was none! The ball
squirted out of the hands of the receiver and Trinity's Tony
Lash dove in to recover the fumble. Several more T.C.S.
line plunges were all that remained in the game, for sec-
onds later the flag fell. T.C.S. emerged the winners and
co-champions of the Little Big Four.

That same afternoon, at Saint Andrew's College in
Aurora, the Saints' defeated the Ridley Tigers in another
hard fought battle to become co-champions.

THE CHEERLEADERS

Somewhat less attractive than their counterparts in the
high schools, four men in white stand at the sidelines pro-
voking voluble yells accompanied by numerous gesticulations
and genuflexions. It is indeed time that we paid tribute
to these enthusiastic gentlemen. Poor fellows — they receive
all the blame for hoarse voices.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 47

In all seriousness, the job the cheerleaders have done
this year has been really wonderful. Their assistance at
rallies and encouragement to the team have made them a
part of the team's success. We thank Bill Porritt, chief
organizer of the group, George McCullagh, Hugh Ellis and
Adrian Grant Duff. Their assistance was invaluable.

COACH'S SUMMARY OF THE SEASON

A winning football team usually attributes its success
to one or more of three factors : power, deception and speed.
Our single wing system, developed over the last ten years
by Mr. Hodgetts, enables our teams to concentrate what
power we have and to develop considerable deception
through spins and screening. Because every boy has a part
in every play, conscientious conditioning is essential,
especially for the guards and tackles, whose running blocks
constitute one of football's most difficult and exacting
techniques. This year we had in Scott, Bowen and Kennish,
three fine running blockers. The other mechanical keys
to our success were Shier's powerful plunging and passing,
combined with Dunbar's deceptive speed and Hall's ex-
ceptional ability as a pass receiver. So we were able to
score 185 points in eight matches, an average of 23 points
per match. The fact that our opponents amassed only
eighty-six points can be attributed to the determination of
every T.C.S. player to be a tackier. Higgins, McNairn and
Perrin were outstanding tacklers.

Yet none of the statistics provides the real key to Big-
side's success. This team was no powerhouse; it averaged
163 pounds and 17.3 years in age. But it had three secrets.
The first was friendship. More than one-half of them had
played together in the Junior School. They valued each
other and played for each other, substituting encouragement
for criticism, and the first person plural for the second.
Thus, for example, Tony Lash was enabled to develop from
scratch into a capable quarterback without fear of back-

48 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

seat drivers. Their second secret was selflessness. Each
boy made room for T.C.S.'s 13th man by submerging the
natural desire to outshine his teammates, and by striving
simply to play his part with ever increasing effectiveness.
No one acted as if he knew it already. Terry Hall was sure
to shine as a kicker and pass-receiver but he determined
to become a proficient blocker and what a difference it made
to us. Their third secret was fun. It is no easy task to
practise and play modern football entirely as a game. No
sport requires more of the whole boy-body, mind and heart.
He has a great deal to memorize and many techniques to
master. And with the pressure of all the other activities
and responsibilities inherent in boarding school life, the
nine hours of sleep per night so essential to the student
footballer, are not easy to find. Bigside managed to win a
co-championship and to have great fun at the same time.
Rusty Dunbar's irrepressible buoyancy had something to
do with it; the strains of "Embracable You" were not un-
usual at the bottom of a pile -up. His team was able to
forget about the importance of winning, and to play whole-
heartedly simply for the love of the game and the honour
of the School. Little wonder that the coach found his task
this year a challenging privilege and a satisfying pleasure.

BIGSIDE HOUSE GAME

BRENT WON 32 -

In the House game, Brent, having most of the Bigside
players, scored a decisive victory over Bethune. Terry Hall
opened the scoring, after receiving a long pass from Rusty
Dunbar, and running the remaining 20 yards for a touch-
down. Dave Marett kicked the convert. Shortly afterwards,
Rusty scored, carrying the ball from the 40-yard line. The
convert attempt was unsuccessful. Bethune retaliated, using
a split-T formation with Stu Adams as quarterback. Un-
fortunately, a long pass was intercepted by Wes McKnight,
who scored another six points for Brent. Again the con-
vert was incomplete. Later in the game, Terry Hall scored
his second touchdown of the game, bringing the score to
25-0 in favour of Brent. In the third quarter, Ken Scott
scored the last major of the game on a quarterback sneak.
Blain Bowen converted, making the score at the end of the
game 32-0 for Brent.

MTODLESIDE

T.C.S. vs. LAKEFIELD FIRSTS

At Lakefield. Lost 26-7.

In their first game against Lakefield at the Grove
the School was solidly beaten by a score of 26-7.

Lakefield opened the scoring on their first play with
quarterback Rainy completing a long forward. The convert
was good. The Maroon and Black came very close to going
all the way on the resulting kick-off when Embury bull-
dozed through a stream of tacklers only to be knocked out
of bounds on the Lakefield thirty. Near the end of the
half. Rainy once again passed for a major. The conversion
made the score 14-0.

In the second half T.C.S. retaliated quickly when Wood
pulled in a long pass thrown by Hyland. Embury converted.
Throughout the rest of the game the play seemed to see-
saw back and forth until Lakefield once again cut loose

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 51

for two quick consecutive touchdowns on a series of plunges.
Both convert attempts were blocked and the final score
was 26-7.

T.C.S. vs. U.C.C.
At Port Hope, October 24. Won 19-14.

In their return match, Trinity won a wide open game
against Upper Canada College. Although U.C.C. kicked off,
Trinity gained possession of the ball early in the first quar-
ter. After a 30-yard gain by John Embury on an end run,
Jim Hyland soon scored a major for T.C.S. The convert
attempt by Embury was no good. U.C.C. quickly retaliated,
however, and using a good passing attack, got down to our
25-yard line, where a third-down kick gained them a single
point. The score at half-time was 6-1 in favour of Trinity.

In the second half, a long completed pass to Barbour
put the ball on U.C.C. 's 15-yard line. Hyland again went
over for a touchdown, which was again unconverted. U.C.C.
rallied, and after receiving the ball, battered their way
through the Trinity defence for a touchdown by Baldwin.
Silman kicked the extra point. A few minutes later, U.C.C.
regained possession of the ball, and using their passing at-
tack, allowed Baldwin to score again. The convert attempt
went wide, but U.C.C. was now leading 14-12. Late in the
fourth quarter. Trinity came back with a drive down to the
U.C.C. 4-yard line, where Ross Adair charged over the goal
line, putting Trinity back into the lead. Wood kicked the
convert. With one minute to play, U.C.C. fumbled a third
down kick on their own 28-yard line, but Trinity failed to
take advantage before the flag fell, signalling the end of
the game.

MIDDLESroE HOUSE GAME

BRENT WON 12-0.

This house game was indeed one packed with action.
In the first quarter, Turnbull recovered the ball for Brent

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

and carried it to the Bethune one-yard line. Brent scored
a touchdown when Wigle carried the ball over. The convert
attempt failed, making the score 6-0 for Brent. In the
second quarter, Wigle made a daring move by running on
a third down while in kick formation. He did not score,
however.

In the third quarter, Bethune retaliated, but failed to
score nevertheless. During the fourth quarter, both teams

LITTLESIDE

"In like a lamb, out like a lion" probably best describes
Littleside's season. Due mostly to inexperience the team
was trounced 45 to in the first game. However, due to
the T.C.S. fighting spirit and plenty of drive, the team won
its last five games. In a hard fought return game with
U.C.C, Littleside edged out a 3-1 victory! The team was
sparked by Connell and Barbour on the line, Hodgetts as
quarterback and Wigle ii as a brilliant kicker and catcher.
Mr. Landry, again the coach, did a magnificent job with his
"potent" squad aided by Captain John Braden and Peter
Barbour.

LITTLESIDE vs. S.A.C.

At Port Hope, October 20. Won 14-6.

S.A.C. got off to a fast start when they scored the first
major of the game on an end run by Van Woolnough. The
convert attempt failed, and the Saints were then leading
6-0. After this quick start, things cooled down a bit, until
just before the end of the first quarter, when Trinity made
a strong bid for a touchdown. However, it was stopped by
the S.A.C. line.

The second quarter showed some fine running by Bar-
bour and Braden, as they continually battered their way
through the S.A.C. line. Because of two very good kicks
by Hodgetts, Littleside managed to get two singles. The
Saints showed strongly, once getting within range of our
goal-line. Fortunately for us, they failed to score. Thus,
at half-time, the score was 6-2 in favour of S.A.C.

In the third quarter, Littleside pressed strongly again,
this time with success. On an end run, Wurtele scored a
touchdown, aided by some excellent blocking.

In the final quarter, S.A.C. showed strong determination,
but were stopped by an equally determined Trinity team.
On the last play of the game, the S.A.C. quarterback at-
tempted a pass play. Hancock for T.C.S. intercepted the

54 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

pass and ran a short distance for a touchdown, thus clinch-
ing the game. The convert attempt failed, but the final
score put the Littleside team ahead 14-6.

LITTLESroE vs. U.C.C.

At Port Hope, October 24. Won 3-1.

In their second game against U.C.C, an inspired
Littleside defeated the visitors 3-1, in a game comprised
only of singles. In the first quarter, Wigle opened the scoring
for Trinity with a 35-yard single. In the second quarter,
after a few exchanges of the ball, U.C.C. drove deep into
T.C.S. territory. They were stopped, but not before Dratney
kicked a single to tie the score.

In the third and fourth quarters, Wigle repeated his
previous performance with a single in each. In each quarter,
U.C.C. made deep drives into Trinity territory, but every
time failed to score.

LITTLESIDE vs. APPLEBY
At Appleby. Won 31-12

The third game of the Littleside season commenced
with Appleby kicking off to T.C.S. After several drives
into Appleby territory, Hodgetts passed to Wigle who ran
for the first T.C.S. tally. The convert was wide. A few
moments later Wigle again scored a major on an end run.
This touchdown was also unconverted. Appleby came back
with a pass play that brought them within scoring distance
and Scarlet ran for the touchdown. The convert was short.
In the second half the combination of Hodgetts and Wigle
clicked again. Hodgetts again throwing, and Wigle running
60 yards for the T.D. On the next T.C.S. drive, Hancock
slipped through the Appleby defences to make the score
24-6. The single point try was good. The final T.C.S. score
was on a line plunge by Barbour. A convert attempt failed.
The never-say-die Appleby team came back, with Black-
well making the score.

MTODLESroE LEAGUE

The Whizzers

The Whizzers started the season again this year with Mr.
White as their coach and George McCullagh, captain. The
team was considerably weakened from last year, as a result
of Bigside nabbing three players. However, after robbing
the Penguins of two excellent players, we were consider-
ably reinforced. Pete Davis, one man secured from the
Penguins, was an exceptional yard-gainer in the halfback
position. Tom Turnbull, the other player taken from the

56 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

Penguins, was of great assistance when it came to tackling.
Along with him in the same field, Peter Allen, Hugh Gor-
don, and Peter Bradshaw, our assistant captain, deserve
mentioning. Hugh Gordon and Chris Wilcox did a fine job
on short and long pass receiving. During the regular
schedule we defeated the Penguins almost every time, but
only managed to beat the Groundhogs once. In the play-
offs, after defeating the Penguins, we managed to secure
the championship by defeating the first place Groundhogs,
using a defensive strategy. We missed the help of back-
fielder Mike Thompson who was injured in the previous
game, but were grateful to Bart Tisdale for his inspiring
help. All in all, the league games are meant to be more
fim than serious, and I think most of the fellows who played
in them will agree that they were.

THE PENGUINS

A newcomer made its appearance in the Middleside
League this year imder the enthusiastic guidance of Mr.
Perry. With Tony Minard as captain, the Penguins waddled
through the season with surprising agility in view of
obvious lack of manpower.

As the season got underway, the team looked almost
good enough to win the championship. However, their
strength was slightly undermined by a number of damaging
trades, and from then on, the cause was a losing one.

The line, led by a "petit" individual from "down south,"
occasionally "elevated" the hopes of the coach, but never
quite enough. Once in a while the watchful onlooker might
catch a glimpse of a flash of red in the distance. More
careful observation would reveal a tiny carrot-topped figure
streaking towards the goal-line with arms outstretched,
apparently awaiting the pass of the century. Unfortunately,
as often as not there would be a heap of players, mostly
opposition, in the vicinity of the Penguin backfielder with
the ball . . . Well now, I wonder?

TRINITY CX)LLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 57

In spite of the lack of victories, there was always
plenty of spirit present during the games and consequently
everyone had a very enjoyable season.

The Groundhogs

Coached by Mr. Gordon, nobly abetted by Mr. Brown,
the Groundhogs, under captain Monty Black, had a very
good season. We won all but one game and some by a
fairly wide margin. Our biggest job was to get Shaky and
Sitwell out on time, but when we did, and could field a
complete team, we really began to roll.

George McLaren gained many yards around the ends,
and Howdy and Weeper gathered in a few passes. Gruff
and Dirty Dave, running interference, cleared gaping holes
for the backfield to go through. But alas! In the final,
when the Whizzers had developed their full power, the
Groundhogs met their match and lost valiantly.

LITTLESroE LEAGUE FOOTBALL

Monsters

A bolt of lightning, a crack of thunder, the roar of
trumpets, the clash of cymbals, and on to the field came
the Mighty Monsters of 1956, captained by R. M. L. Towle.

This year was the first edition of the Massey Monsters,
and as it turned out, it was a most successful one. From
the line to the backs this team was packed with energy
and spirit, along with Mr. Massey's very capable coaching.
As the games went by the Monsters racked up an unsur-
passable string of victories.

At the end of the season the standing showed these
same Monsters leading the league with eleven points. The
Plimderers were a close second with nine, followed by the
Demons. The Demons and Plunderers played off, and as
the Plunderers won, they had to play the Monsters in the
final for the championship. Mr. Massey's team was really
geared up for this one, and they went on the field with a

58 TRINITY (X)IX,EGE SCHOOL. RECORD

determined spirit. When the game was over, again the
Monsters were victorious. They had finally proved to every-
body that they were the team that deserved the honours.
Much credit is due to the other teams, however, for
making it such a hard-fought league.

Demons

The Demons were again expertly coached by Mr. Dale
with Fred Hassel and Bob Osier as captains. The season
started off well for the Demons for we tied and won our
first two games. This good play was due to the fast running
of Hart, Osier, Thomson and the good line work of Shorto,
Wainwright and many others. As the season went on, the
team slackened and at the end the Demons ended up in the
cellar with four points. When the finals came, however,
we were a new team and ready to go. Although we lost
the final by a close score, we feel that it was a good season
for all.

MK. PROWER'S PLUNDERERS

Under the guidance of a spirited coach whose experience
was reinforced by hard work and perseverance, the
Plunderers of 1956 developed very well, captained by Michael
Denny s. After the first game (which we lost 46-0) things
looked bad, but after a 6-0 defeat in our second game,
our losses were over. From then on we won or tied every
game. Led by the hard-charging Rusty Thompson and
John Bilton's tricky running we really pounded out the
yardage. In the semi-final playoffs we defeated Mr. Dale's
Demons 14-6. However, in the final game we were defeated
18-6 by Mr. Masssey's Monsters. In the second half we out-
scored them 6-0, and three times in succession held them
inside our thirty-five yard line. While we could not score, the
last half of our final game was our "most glorious hour".

With a rock and a roll
He careens through the hole . . .

The silent but solid Al Shier

Threw passes in rain, sun, or mire.

He also would run

Like a shell from a gun

And he made opposition expire!

Tony's start was to say the least green,

And the odd mistake was to be seen,

But nobody hollered

We all simply follerd . . .

And our quarter soon proved a champeen!

Doug Higgins went after their quarter . . .

But alas was too late

So we just bowed to fate

And brought on a blinkin' big blotter.

He found the fight funner and funner.

He was off on the warpath

Intent on a bloodbath

To stop him you should be a gunner.

If you get in his way

Then goodnight for today,

And thank God for the REd Cross Blood Bank!

And they went as fast as they came!

Pass defence they corrected
Each weakness corrected
And completely contained UCC.

Garth built up his beautiful body,

To make his opponents look shoddy

Played ball like true brothers

THE SUEZ CANAL

This ship canal is the largest in the world. It connects
the Mediterranean Sea with the Red Sea, and the cities of
Port Said and Suez. This canal was opened in 1869 and
cost £20,000,000.

The Suez Canal was first thought of by the early
Egyptians. Little parts of the canal were started before
the birth of Christ. In 1798, a French engineer, named
Ferdinand de Lesseps, turned his attention to the enterprise.
For four years he worked and in 1858, a company was
organized which had a capital of $40,000,000.

Work began in 1859. For the next six years the digging
was done by shovels, but after that they used machinery.
The canal is 104 miles long and includes twenty-one miles
of small lakes. They did not cut through much rock and
did not need locks.

The canal was twenty-six feet deep and 72 feet wide
at the bottom. Two ships could pass at certain points but
one had to tie up while the other passed. The canal has

In 1920, the government moved it to a public park

THE MAKING OF A RACE HORSE

After being broken to saddle and bridle, a race horse
is brought to the track for preliminary training in the
spring. Early morning jogs are the first step in develop-
ing the horse's muscles, the gait is gradually speeded up
until it is time to give him a "full out two furlongs." This
is where he really has to show his capabilities. If he proves
perfect, he is worked hard until the day comes when the
horse is entered in his first race, a two furlong sprint for
two-year-olds. This is usually a fast race because the horses
are in peak condition.

After many races of this type the owner has high
hopes for the day he will enter his horse in a six furlong
event. Much hard work goes into this greater distance and
only when the horse is ready for it is he entered. Perhaps
he wins or runs like a fish. If he wins, the day can be looked
forward to when the horse runs his first stake race. This
involves big money. For a long race like this he must be
long winded; to accomplish this it means jogging the horse
for at least two to four miles each day. After mastering
these feats, he could be a contender in any race.

THE ROBIN CATCHES HIS MORNING MEAL.

Every day, long before you have even stirred in your

lazily cruising, while his eyes dart about; soon he spots a
burrowing worm and before it is aware, he flashes down
out of the blue above and pounces on it. The worm begins
to twist and turn and pull in an effort to free itself. Oh ! it's
loose; quickly the worm tries to take advantage of its
break, but the Robin is determined not to lose its prey and
again he snatches the worm up and, with one last vic-
torious tug, pulls it out of the hole, pauses, then soars
triiunphantly up into the air, proudly bearing his prize.

THE VALLEY

From where I was standing, the small, green valley
appeared to be a miniature playground. On the left side
were gently sloping hills coloured by the multiple tinted
leaves which were drowsily drifting to the half -frozen
ground; to the right was a rugged steep cliff with a tiny
waterfall running down among the rocks. At the far end
was a tall, snow-capped mountain with rocks jutting out
here and there, and at the foot of the mountain was a
trapper's small log cabin with skins of animals stretched
on frames hanging from the wall. Behind the house was
an old bam with a broken-down sleigh in the door.

I was on my way there so I started down the steep

THE HORSE

Horses belong to the order of hoofed beasts, as do
cattle, sheep and deer.

In prehistoric times, wild horses roamed all over Europe
and Asia. These were just slightly smaller than the wolf
and were four toed. Since then the middle toe of the horse
has grown very much and is now considered as the foot
or hoof.

The average horse is about fourteen and one-half hands
high, which in feet and inches is about six feet and eight
inches.

Today the only real wild horses are living in Mongolia.
These are small, dun-coloured animals with a single dark
stripe along the back. The so-called wild horses of America
are just descendants of imported domestic horses which
have run wild.

Horses were not known at all in America until the
Europeans came in the sixteenth centm-y. They have multi-
plied greatly and are now some of the most popular and
common animals in North America.

CAMELS

In Arabia there are camels which would seem very
rare to us. They are rare because we live in a different
part of the world where camels are not seen.

The Arabian camel has only one hump, though there
are other ones which have two humps. Camels are very
useful to carry people and spices. They also can go for a
long distance without water. Animals which can travel
without water like camels are most useful, for deserts are
long and dusty and have only a few water springs.

Camels are used very much in deserts because of their
long feet. Donkeys or horses would sink in the sand be-
cause they have shorter feet. Camels do not sink in the
sand because they have long feet. Camels are very stubborn
animals. They can run very, very fast.

Camels are very useful in barren countries but here
we would only find them in the zoo.

RIVERS

It is amazing how rivers curve and turn, moving in all
directions, usually going towards a bigger body of water.
They go through underground routes, under roots and moss.
Some rivers are quite large and their inhabitants are many
large and small creatures. It is so wonderful to see water-
falls with the water thundering and churning around.

We usually don't realize the great uses of our rivers.
For canals for ships and for power, our big rivers are used;
drainage of the earth's surface is important too.

Rivers help everyone all over the world.

At this time, the blades of grass began their upward

this process was slow and laborious. The wind began to

it sat placidly on a mound of hardened mud like a snake

ATHLETICS

Captain of Rugby J. A. Burton

Vice-Captain J. M. Band

Judging from the keenness and good spirit shown in
our practices, everybody enjoyed the season and, in fact,
seemed to be sorry when it ended. This surely is the true
measure of a successful season — games of any kind are
meant to be enjoyed.

Like any other team, we played better football in some
games than in others — our main mistakes came more from

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 71

lack of experience rather than from any lack of endeavour.
We undoubtedly played our best football in the game we
lost by the largest score!

Colours

First Team Colours have been awarded to the follow-
ing: J. A. Burton (Capt), J. M. Band (Vice-Capt.), D. H.
Brainerd, D. W. Cobbett, D. N. Hodgetts, C. J. Humble,
J. C. Ketchum, N. F. J. Ketchum, J. J. Kime, T E. Leather,

Half-Colours

G. M. Barber, G. L. Booth, E. W. Colby, D. M. Gray-
don, I. M. McAvity.

GAMES

The first game of the season saw Lakefield at T.C.S.
on October 10. The Lakefield squad was obviously short
of training due to a late start at rugby and the result pro-
duced a very one-sided match with Boulden House the
heavy winners by a score of 54-0.

On October 13, Upper Canada Prep entertained Boulden
House. The Boulden House team was heavier and slightly
older than the Prep team and the result was never in doubt
after half-time. The Upper Canada team is to be con-
gratulated on the brand of football shown by them under
those handicaps. Final score, T.C.S. 25; U.C.C. 6.

The game against St. Andrew's at T.C.S. on October 20
produced a 16-0 victory for the Saints. The Boulden House
team did not play their best football in this game, having
got off to a shaky start due to some rather erratic snap-
ping. St. Andrew's deserved their win but possibly not by
so large a margin.

As is frequently the case in our schedule, the Ridley
game produced the best football of the season in spite of
a 25-6 victory for Ridley.

72 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

Ridley possibly had a slight edge in weight and played
a good brand of football. Some very unfortunate fumbles
near the Ridley goal line in the first half kept us out of
the scoring while the opposition rolled up 19 points. In the
second half, the Boulden House team played some very solid
football, holding Ridley to one unconverted touchdown and
scoring one themselves in the dying minutes of the game.

The final game of the season played at Lakefield on
October 22 saw a 30-13 victory for Boulden House. The
Lakefield team showed a great deal of improvement over
the first game and some good football was produced by
both teams.

House Glame

A very strong Orchard House team under the captaincy
of J. M. Band ground out a 19-0 victory over Rigby House
in a very hard-hitting game.

SOCCER

Co-Captains of Soccer F. W. Naylor, D. C. Rubbra

successful seasons in several years. A good brand of soccer

was played in all their matches — all of which were very

hard fought

BWSP'WOTES

T.C.S. FUND

The following is a progress report of the T.C.S. Fund
up to the end of November. Purpose of this report is to
illustrate what has been collected and what remains to be
done.

Immediate Objective $1,000,000.00 by Dec. 31, 1958

Amount Pledged 436,794.92 Nov. 30, 1956.

Balance to be given $ 563,205.08

Long Term Objective $ 525,000.00 by June 1, 1965

Amount Pledged 277,610.00 1959 - -1965.

Balance to be given $ 247,390.00

Total amount pledged $ 714,404.92

The 100th Anniversary endowment total is $2,625,-
000.00. This amount will be raised from the two objectives
listed above and supplemented by an Annual Giving Cam-
paign which it is hoped, will amount to $44,000.00 yearly
by 1965. This amount capitalized at 4% will complete the
total objective.

The original immediate objective was $500,000.00 but,
due to the magnificent response at the start of the cam-
paign, this figure was increased to $1,000,000.00. From what
has been collected so far and the potential not yet canvassed,
there is every indication that the campaign will be success-
ful in its efforts.

74 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

It is of interest to note that as of November 30, 1956,
five hundred and eighty gifts have been received. Of this
number no less than one hundred and thirty-three have come
from individuals other than Old Boys, In other words, of
a potential of approximately twenty-five hundred Old Boys,
only four hundred an forty-seven have donated. There still
remains much work to be done by those taking an active
part in the campaign. Plans are now under way to revital-
ize the drive early in the New Year.

OLD BOYS' DINNER

The Old Boys' Dinner in Toronto on November 22 was
a great success; there were some two hundred and thirty

versation showed clearly that all were meeting old friends.

The Headmaster mentioned the fact that N. M. Sea-
gram ('47-'52) was the third Norman Seagram to be Presi-
dent of the Toronto Branch, his Grandfather and Father
having preceded him. So many Old Boys congratulated him
on the way he ran the gathering. There were nine Seagrams
present — Norman, Senior, his sons. Bill, Norman and David,
Bill's sons. Bill and Richard, Norman's sons, Norman and
John, and Charlie Seagram from Barrie. Other families
extremely well represented were the Strathys, G.B., his

From Jim Vipond's ('33-'35) column in "The Globe and

at the head table looking forward to 1958 when he will cele-
brate 70 years association with Canadian football, was
Seppi DuMoulin ('88-'96), the Patriarich of the Pigskin.
Seppi, the only man to ever hold the presidency of Canada's
three senior football leagues, the Big Four, the Western
Conference and the Ontario Rugby Football Union, is still
as keenly interested in the game today as when he played
for Trinity College School. And Seppi is not one to yearn

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 79

for the good old days. He likes the game of football as it
is played today, thinks that perhaps it is more interesting
and exciting than the game he played."

In 1909 the Hamilton Tigers coached by Seppi DuMoulin
played Varsity coached by H. C. Griffith for the Dominion
Championship. Varsity won by a small margin. It was the
first Dominion Championship Football game.

BOYS FROM THE WEST

Since 1933 exactly one hundred boys have come to
T.C.S. from Winnipeg and the West, divided as follows:

Vancouver & B.C 35

Calgary & Alberta 25

Edmonton 20

Saskatchewan 6

Winnipeg & Manitoba 14

There are thirteen boys in the School now from the
West.

Since the Founding of the School 92 years ago approx-
imately five hundred boys have come from the West.
Since 1933, 1,571 New Boys have entered T.C.S.
In 1913 there were 43 boys from the West at T.C.S.
out of a total enrolment of 140. The smallest number from
the West since 1933 was five in 1933 out of a total of 130
boys (Depression Days). There were only seven out of
260 in 1955, so with that number doubled, the vivid Western
air is beginning to permeate our corridors once again.

TO THE WESTERN LANDS

(The Headmaster's and Old Boys' Secretary's trip to
Calgary, Vancouver, Victoria, Edmonton, Regina, Winnipeg,
October 9 - 18, 1956.)

We had been told that we must go West: it did not
take much persuasion for who would not like to take ten
days out of the routine of School life to meet old friends
far flung toward the setting sun, many of whom we had
not seen for twenty to forty years. But October was a busy
month at School and September was too soon for most Old
Boys to organize meetings. We had to postpone at two

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 87

weeks' notice the original trip scheduled for September and
though the new date was best for four cities, it made little
difference in one, and for several reasons it was upsetting
to some arrangements made by Vancouver Old Boys. We
do apologize most deeply again for the inconvenience which
we caused.

The West will always be exciting to the writer: his
first trip there was on a harvester's excursion in 1915 as
a boy of fifteen — an unforgettable experience. Foreigners
galore, wooden seats, driving teams to load sheaves in the
limitless fields, galloping to the threshing machine and off
for another load, sleeping in a 'caboose' 12' x 6' x 6', double
bunks, eight smelly men, on the job 19 hours a day and
the pay five dollars a day, a good wage for those days. In
the middle thirties he went again to see Old Boys, this time
in style by C.P.R. and never will he forget the unbounded
hospitality and enthusiasm he met everywhere. The trip
itself was thrilling, the scenery was superb; despite the
depression Vancouver obviously had the most amazing
future of the younger cities and the most breathtaking site.
In the morning, one of the finest lads ever to attend T.C.S.,
who later fell in Italy, took the writer around the new Uni-
versity site, with its gorgeous views, then to the higher
ground just beginning to be settled (now thickly populated) ,
across the extraordinary Lions' Gate bridge to the Capillano
Golf Course — he told me he played golf in the morning on
his day off and he skied in the afternoon and all half an
hour from home. Here were ships from all parts of the world
tied up right in the centre of the city, and always the
mountains towering majestically on the horizon.

Calgary, Edmonton, Victoria had thrilled him then, the
first two somewhat like throbbing outpost cities, the last
not like any Canadian city he had seen, a quiet, English
Naval town, green grass in April twenty-four hours from
snow and ice in Edmonton and Calgary. Winnipeg was more
like an Eastern city, he thought, large, soundly established,
and growing old in years.

88 TRINITY CXDLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

In 1945 he went again and saw changes; in 1948 he
went to Victoria for an educational conference and had Old
Boys' meetings at Senator Barnard's house in Victoria, at
the Shaughnessy Golf Club, Vancouver, and in Winnipeg.
The thrill was the flight across the country, only one
passenger from Winnipeg to Toronto, dropping down at
emergency airfields on the north shore of Lake Superior
and flying over Muskoka to Malton. He was allowed to sit
with the pilot and take over, listening to the beam.

How different in eight years! A non-stop Super Con-
stellation flight from Malton to Calgary in seven hours and
every seat taken. We took eight separate flights on this
tour and we were not a minute late at any one of the six
cities we visited. Orchids to the T.C.A. ! And we tried every
plane in service, Conny's, Viscounts, North Stars, (Tourist),
and D.C. 3's — they were all excellent. What a lifelong im-
pression it is flying over Lake Superior and seeing all the
grain boats in line with their little white ribbons at bow
and stern, miraculous colours and shapes of the clouds
especially during sunset, the flares of the oil wells, the
panorama of the Rockies which beggars description, and the
superb setting of Vancouver and Victoria.

But now to those important details, the boys we met.
The reason for the trip was threefold (1) to tell the Old
Boys T.C.S. was still functioning well and wanted more
boys from the West, (2) to get more help from the Old
Boys in spreading the gospel of the School through the
means of active associations, and (3) to bring word about
the T.C.S. Fund and the new Scholarships and Bursaries
which can look after travelling expenses and in some cases
much more than that. Then the new "External Affairs
Minister," Paul McFarlane, had an opportunity to meet
many Old Boys throughout the West with whom he will
be dealing as Secretary of the O.B.A. The whole trip was
delightful, with one reservation: everywhere we went we
wanted to stay a few days longer and, of course, the writer
would like to settle down for life on a ranch in the Calgary
country!

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 89

At every Airport Old Boys were waiting to meet us,
something we never dreamed of for the hour of arrival was
often most inconvenient — 12 midnight, 5 p.m. with all the
traffic. It seemed unbelievable when the stewardess drew
my attention to the sign "Fasten Seat Belts" — how could
we be at Calgary so soon! But there we were and what a
striking new Airport building — surely one of the most at-
tractive anywhere. It was after midnight Calgary time but
there v/ere Dick Carson, Fred Scott and Bill Toole waiting
for us. They whisked us off to the Palliser and then on to
Dick's home where his Father and Mother entertained us
for two hours.

Calgary has grown faster than any other city in Canada
and there was evidence of it everywhere: (an Old Boy re-
marked that it was a bit frightening to realize that so many
workers were in the building trades.)

The foothills in the distance and the exciting Calgary
air rejuvenated us the next morning: we wanted to take
part in a Stampede!

The programme had been drawn up by Dick Carson
and his committee: we had a luncheon with parents, a visit
to Strathcona School where many T.C.S. boys started their
schooling, a large Tea Party for Old Boys and Parents
and Friends at the hotel, and a sumptuous dinner in the
evening. Neil Harvie came in from his ranch, the Gourlays,
Jock and Alistair from their ranch, and Jim Cartwright was
planning to come from his but buyers appeared and he
could not get away. Next day the Calgary Herald made a
tape recording of an interview and we had lunch with Mr.
and Mrs. Bobby Heard at the lovely Golf Club, meeting
more T.C.S. people; Neil Harvie gave up the whole after-
noon to motor us fifty miles and more around Calgary, see-
ing the boundaries of his ranch, the place where the Marquis
of Lome wrote "Unto the Hills around do I lift up my
longing eyes" — and one can easily understand why the
Marquis was so inspired, a large sulphur factory miles from
anywhere and using natural gas as the raw material, and

90 TRINITY CXDLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

now and then oil prospectors using the sound wave method.
It was all intensely interesting and Neil's ranch, some ten
thousand acres of wide fields rolling down to the Bow River,
was unforgettable. Dick Carson came out to dinner and
very kindly motored us back to the airport. It was hard to
tear ourselves away. The Old Boys we saw in Calgary
were Arthur Mewburn, our Calgary Governor who had a
heavy cold but who had done much to make the visit a suc-
cess, Dick Carson, acting President, Neil Harvie, Secretary,
Fred Scott (new Secretary), Bill Toole (new President),
Al and Jock Gourlay, Roy Jennings, Sandy McPherson,
Malcolm Mackenzie (building a super motel), Bruce Mac-
donald (formerly of Winnipeg), Charles van Straubenzie.
A number were at Universities and we saw them in Van-
couver and Edmonton.

We seemed to be over the Rockies and in Vancouver
before we had settled down in our seats. There Ross Wil-
son (Governor) met us and Dick James appeared, coming
straight from work at the Hudson's Bay Company. Ross
motored us miles to the city and the hotel and gave us the
order of proceedings. He had gone to untold pains and
expense to make our visit a real success. In the hotel Ted
Parker appeared — out on business and expecting his second
child at any time. The Old Boys had a late afternoon gather-
ing at the Terminal City Club, Pat Burns being in charge.
There was a very good attendance, a number of Old Boys
coming six miles from the University despite the awkward
hour. Among others were Pat Burns, David Lawson, Tony
Walkem, Ross Wilson, Don Macdonald (new President),
John Usborne, Sandy Pearson, Phipp Rogers, Desmond
Fitzgerald (U.B.C.), David Smith (U.B.C.), Reg Bethune,
Guy Montizambert, Dr. John Becher, Dick James, Fenn
Douglas, Theo DuMoulin (Len was ill), Don Fullerton,
O. E. S. Gardiner, Hudson Goodbody, John Gordon (U.B.C.),
Tad James, Ken Manning, Cam Harstone, Wray Jones,
Budge Jukes, Michael King, George Lane, Warren Malins,
Mait McCarthy, Hugh Paterson, Blair Paterson, Dr. Reg

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 91

Tanner, Bill Thomas (U.B.C.) , Tom Wade, Tony Wells, Dick
Wright (Montreal), Harrison Moore, Harry Pearce, Bob
Arnold (U.B.C). It was indeed good of senior Old Boys
like Mr. Reg Bethune and Mr. Guy Montizambert to come
a long distance to a late afternoon gathering. That evening
Dr. Joe Thomas entertained us to dinner downtown and we
spent the evening at his house with Mrs. Thomas, Ross Wil-
son, Bill Thomas and our host. Robert Orchard met us at
the hotel and Dudley Dawson was at the airport on his
way back to Montreal. The next day the President of U.B.C.
entertained the writer to lunch and showed him all the
building developments which have taken place there in a
few years. Dr. Mackenzie's house is surely in the most
perfect setting imaginable and indeed the thousand acres
which the Province gave for a University site is ideally
situated. U.B.C, like all colleges, is bursting at the seams
and has more resident students in proportion to numbers
than any other Canadian College. Dr. Geoff Andrews is
assistant to the President — he was a former master at U.CC
Don Macdonald took us on a tour of the Yacht Club and part
of the new housing development, a reporter interviewed
the writer, there were many telephone conversations, and
the Headmaster was invited to attend the annual dinner of
the B.C. Private Schools' Association and bring greetings
from the East. It was a most enjoyable gathering. Ross
Wilson then took us to the renowned Empire Stadium to
see the Vancouver Lions play the Winnipeg Blue Bombers
in the rain — a one sided defeat for Vancouver. On Sunday,
we attended the Cathedral and had more informal gather-
ings before leaving for Victoria.

There Hugh Henderson met us and took us to tea at
his lovely country place. Then into the city and a full pro-
gramme on Monday. Hugh invited us to his law office
where we discussed Old Boys' matters followed by a lun-
cheon he had arranged at the Union Club with John Wal-
lace, the Officers Commanding Royal Roads and Venture,
and Mr. Peter Kaye, Head of Shawnigan Lake School.

92 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

Victoria was balmy, with a slight drizzle, and the people
seemed to live at a slower pace and much more sensibly.
The O.C. of Royal Roads said Kit Anstis was the Senior
Cadet this term and doing very well. Then to Hugh's house
again which he and his wife had thrown open for a tea
party in our honour. Among the Old Boys who came were
Walker Taylor, David McKeand, Carew Martin, Capt. Phil
Haddon, Massey Cox, John Lines, Terry Melville (at Vic-
toria College), Geoff Archbold (master at Shawnigan),
John Wallace, Lt. Commander Don Joy, and there were other
Naval officers. Heads of Schools, Parents of boys. That
evening Captain and Mrs. Prentice had a dinner party for
about twenty people: it was all most enjoyable.

We caught the plane for Vancouver at 7 a.m. and the
panorama of sea, inlets, islets, Vancouver Island, channels,
mountains, fishing boats, and liners was striking to say the
least.

On to Edmonton where Bunny Aylen met us and
motored us in to the city. He entertained us to lunch at
the Edmonton Club and he and Gerry Pearson had organized
an Old Boys' Dinner. In the afternoon there was another
interview by a reporter, meetings and telephone talks with
parents. The dinner at the Edmonton Club was the best
we have ever had in Edmonton; a larger number of Old
Boys and Parents turned up than we thought possible and
the School film was very much appreciated. Mr. Aylen made
a very appropriate speech, followed by the Head, and there
was much talk about Old Days and various details of School
life. Always at every city there were enquiries for Masters
whom Old Boys remembered with gratitude and affection.
One Old Boy said the Chemistry he had learned was all
he needed for first year at Alberta and he was much better
prepared than others in his class. The film made a real
impression on all present and they stayed for the 1955 U.C.C.
football film which Mr. Hall gave the School. Pat Burns
(Calgary) was at the hotel but could not come to the dinner;
he is at the University of Alberta. Bunny Aylen presided

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 93

and with him at the Head Table were Colonel Pearson, Mr.
MacCosham, Professor Grayson Smith, Paul McFarlanc and
the Headmaster. Among the others were Gerry Pearson
(new President), Harry Morris, Rod MacCosham, Group
Capt. Don Galloway, David McDonald, Charles Brine, Bob
McLaughlin, Tony van Straubenzee, Philip Stevens-Guille,
Chris Yorath, Jim Thompson, Rod Montagu, Dr. Eric Elliott,
Robert Paterson, Graham Thomson.

Edmonton is another city which has changed out of all
recognition in twenty years; enormous petro-chemical in-
dustries loom up on the horizon, the city has grown all
around the airport making it necessary to find another site,
the subdivisions laid out for forty years in the suburbs
with no buildings are now right in the city, and one senses
a feeling of bustle and big development. In the Hotel the
Imperial Oil Company has a fascinating model of the whole
process of searching for oil, and how it is used when found,
and at the airport planes leave for the remote northern out-
posts.

On to Regina the next morning where Judge Gordon
and Assistant Commissioner Nordy Kirk, R.C.M.P. were
waiting to meet us. We rushed off to Judge Gordon's house
where Mrs. Gordon had the most delicious luncheon of
grain fed wild duck, with wild rice, numerous vegetables
and delicacies, followed by pumpkin pies which melted in
one's mouth. Don Gilley, Nordy Kirk and our host were
the only Old Boys in town but Gordon Brown who farms
several thousand acres sent a message to say how sorry
he was that it was impossible for him to get away. Mr.
Alan Embury, father of John, completed the most enjoy-
able party. We had only an hour and forty minutes in
Regina but every moment was so filled with pleasure it
seemed much longer.

Flying over the lakes and sloughs we saw thousands
of duck and Judge Gordon said he could always get his bag
by motoring a few miles into the prairies and digging a

94 TRINITY (X)LLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

hide. (The name before ours in the Visitors' Book was
Mrs. A. B. Hodgetts who called last summer.)

Then to Winnipeg where Brock Smith met us. It
seemed to me that ever since 1935 Brock Smith has gone
to much trouble to do anything possible for the School. He
was in Vancouver in 1935 with the 'Bay' and wrote a de-
lightful story for the press about the Old Boys' Dinner:
then he was in Edmonton and later in Winnipeg. He and
Andy Stephens had done the staff work for an Old Boys'
luncheon the next day, but hardly had we arrived at the
hotel than Mr. Don Knight, father of David, came in and
invited us to dinner and then to a gathering at his house.
He and Mrs. Knight had invited about forty parents who
might be interested in T.C.S. and the evening was a most
thoroughly enjoyable one for us. We came away feeling
that Winnipeg people simply could not have been more
thoughtful and kind. The next morning parents met us at
the hotel, Mr. Phipps Baker (Governor) had just arrived
back from Vancouver and came down to see us, and we
paid a visit to Mr. Dick Gordon, Head of St. John's-Ravens-
court School. Stu Searle, a Governor of St. John's-Ravens-
court, motored us out and he and Mr. Gordon showed us all
over their striking new building. Then came the Old Boys'
luncheon at the Hudson's Bay Company Store. Mr. Andy
Stephens most generously entertained us all and Brock
Smith was in the Chair. There were short speeches and
it was agreed that a branch Association should be recon-
stituted. In addition to Brock Smith and Andy Stephens
there were Morris and Eric Patton, Jimmy Taylor, Heber
Sharpe, Dick Bonnycastle, Bruce Miller (from Portage),
Arthur Millward, Sidney Cox, Harold Turner, Douglas
Hutchings; Tony Nanton and Stu Searle had been at the
evening reception and could not make the dinner. Stephen
Baker and John Arbuthnott were detained at the University,
Stan Pepler's wife was ill, Jock Smith and Bill Mathers
were out of town. It was most encouraging to find such
enthusiasm in Winnipeg — from 1913 on for many years we

TRINITY CX)LLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 95

met lean years there but before then we flourished and in
the last few years T.C.S. seems to be regaining ground.

And so we headed home to the East, still glowing from
all the world-renowned Western enthusiasm and hospitality
we had encountered everywhere.

DR. ROBERT ARMOUR

Dr. "Bobby" Armour was a most faithful Old Boy of
T.C.S. and graduate of Trinity College. For many, many
years he made it a point to attend our Speech Day cere-
monies and he always sent funds for his prize, the Armour
Memorial. He was a son of E. D. Armour, Q.C., ('67-'68), a
'jarrister, and a member of the Governing Body in the early
years of this century. It was Mr. E. D. Armour who gave
the Jubilee Exhibition for Mathematics to mark the fiftieth
anniversary of the founding of the School in 1915.

Dr. Armour spent only one year at T.C.S. and then
entered Trinity College where he graduated in Arts in 1904.
He then studied Medicine and took his degree in 1908. De-
ciding to specialize in neurology, he took postgraduate
courses in neurology and psychiatry in Berlin, London and
New York.

In 1915 he was appointed to No. 4 Canadian General
Hospital overseas; in 1918 at the end of the war he was
appointed consultant neurologist for the Western provinces
but he returned to civilian practice the following year. For
some thirty years he took a leading part in the training
of medical students in neurology at the University of Tor-
onto and in 1945 he became the head of the Neurological
Service and Associate Professor of Medicine. Dr. Armour
had a deep interest in medico-legal work and was very
often called upon to give evidence in Court in important
legal cases. He believed that all professional men should
have a sound training in the humanities and impressed on his
students the need for a broad background of knowledge as
well as technical skill.

He will be sadly missed in many circles but his strong
character, his deep principles and loyalties will never be
forgotten.

PHILIP DuMOULIN (1884-1885)

Two years ago S. S. DuMoulin and his brother, Philip,
had lunch in the Hall and spent the afternoon at the School.
The Headmaster spoke of the long and loyal support given
to T.C.S. by the DuMoulin family and the many relations
and connections of the Dumoulins who had been boys at
the School.

Now Philip DuMouhn has left us; he died in his sleep
on November 10th in Kelowna, B.C., after a brief illness.

He was born the year the T.C.S. moved to Port Hope,
m 1868, son of the Bishop of Niagara. Entering T.C.S. in
1884 he showed himself to be a good student and a keen
athlete. Business called him and he joined the Bank of
Montreal in Toronto in 1887. For forty-five years he served
the bank and retired in Vancouver in 1932. In 1946 he
moved to Kelowna. During his career as a banker he took
a leading part in the communities where he was stationed,
Ottawa, New Westminster, Victoria, Nelson, Kelowna,
Kingston. He was Manager of the first branch opened in
Kelowna and as that community had just been granted a
Charter as a town and was expanding rapidly Mr. DuMoulin
was called on to give direction and advice in many develop-
ments. He helped to build St. Michael and All Angels
Church, to organize the Board of Trade, and at one time or
another he was President of the Boy Scouts' Association,
the Golf Club, the Football Club, the Aquatic Association,
the Lacrosse Club, the Kelowna Club, the Hospital Society,
the Agriculture and Trades Association. Truly he was a
builder of the city — and not only the city one sees and
hears. He must have enjoyed his years of retirement there,
with old friends, and near his family in Vancouver. But
many changes had taken place in Kelowna since he first
arrived fifty years ago.

When the School organized an Old Boys' Association in
the West in the thirties, Mr. Philip DuMoulin gladly did the
work of Secretary and his son, Len, was President.

TRINITY CX)LiLEGE SCHOOL RECORD IQl

He and his brothers, Septimus, Frank, Edward and
Walter, all came to T.C.S., his three sons, Tony, Len and
Theo, and his grandson. Bill.

Another of our Senior Old Boys has left us and we are
the poorer for his going as the School is the stronger for
his having been. "Velut arbor aevo."

EDITORIAL

Remarkable! In the matter of a few centuries man
has evolved from the status of a mere primitive to his
present position of being able to blow up both himself and
all his neighbours with comparative ease. Progress is a
wonderful thing, but is there going to be any future in
which to enjoy it?

The ninety-two odd countries of the earth boast a total
population of about two billion people. "Countries" is the
term usually applied, but perhaps it should be "teams," for

2 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

apparently the governments of these units feel it necessary
to jockey their charges into a position superior to their
neighbour, employing methods varying from internal reform
to the more common device of external warfare.

A segment of these ruling bodies have been successful
in enlisting public opinion by appealing to them through
anthem-like "fight-songs" (preferably accompanied by the
ponderous thundering of military bands and marching
troops) and liberally spread propaganda aimed at giving
their citizens a superiority complex. The inspiration of one
leader of such a country was to grow a black moustache
and forelock and to scream oaths and promises from Nurem-
burg balconies. At first he was met with wild success, but
the custom has become somewhat less popular since his
friend, Benito, was found hanging upside-down outside an
Italian gas station.

Philosophers have often said on this subject that the
world is just like a lot of little boys scrapping over a bag
of marbles, and that when they grow up and mature they
will learn to settle their problems in a civilized fashion. We
challenge the validity of this theory, for does it hold true
even in the cycle of human life? Do they build prisons and
insane asylums for little boys? We think not! And now
that the little shavers have learned to blow up not only
themselves but everyone else with thermo-nuclear "bangs,"
we feel that matters must be shortly settled, and that a
workable solution must be found by mutual agreement with-
in our own generation.

For this to be possible we must produce world leaders
of a very high calibre indeed; the "Shorty" and "Stinky"
of today's classroom must grow into men of greater stature
than was ever before necessary, for does it not follow that
the more complex the problem the higher the requirements
of the solver?

The requirements of this leader will be many. He must
be above the political gimmicks which we have previously
described, and must be the true voice of the people, the

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 3

voice of humanity. Which is more important to the people,
the power and prestige of their particular political unit and
its government, or their way of life, their loved ones, and
their very existence itself? This leader must be a states-
man in the true sense of the word, but above all he must
be a man of principles.

What is a man of principles? Perhaps we can best ex-
plain it by this simple analogy. There is a rowboat and a
sailing dinghy heading upwind towards the same point on
a distant shore. As the rowboat proceeds it alters its course
slightly to make allowance for the shifting wind and the
current, but its line of progress will always run through to
its destination. On the other hand the sailboat must alter
its course to suit each new gust, and consequently its line
of progress will be very erratic. Since he cannot proceed
directly upwind towards his goal, the sailing skipper must
"tack"; that is, he must run close-hauled as close as he
can to the wind. When he feels that his upwind progress
no longer justifies the distance he is travelling from his
destination, he will come about into the wind and onto a
different tack.

The sailboat could be likened to a man who lacks a
definite set of principles. His course is altered by each new
bit of information, his aim is forced off its mark by each
new gust of opposition; there is no power within him that
would enable the man to overcome these obstacles, and he
will often lose sight of his goal. On realizing this, he might
try to switch onto another tack, sincerely desiring to attain
his goal, but again the same forces will defeat him. Of
course he would eventually reach his destination, but has
he time? How successful can he be in a world where the
winds of opposition are strong and conflicting; the running
tides of the past, on which he travels and from which he
gleans his knowledge, discourage the possibility of his reach-
ing his goal, or, in our little analogy, the required solution?

The rowboat is the man of principle; the force which
drives him through the water comes from within. He may

4 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECX)RD

alter his course to suit the situation, and compromise with
the opposition where he must, but he functions independent
of these forces, his eye remains doggedly fixed upon his
destination. If he has the strength and the courage to keep
pulling against these odds, he will be successful. The more
men of principle fighting together for the same cause, pulling
together towards a common goal, the more likely it is that
they will surmount the difficulties and triumph.

The "goal" is a workable, peaceful solution to the
problems of man and the state; the "winds of opposition"
are human frailties such as greed, pride, and ignorance;
"the opposing tide" is history with its annals spilling over
with the tales of men who were defeated in this self same
quest; but what are "the principles"?

Of course many people have many answers to this ques-
tion, every group has a different one, but we should like to
enlist support behind one of them.

We believe that the answer lies in the dogma of the
Christian faith, in its ideals and fundamental philosophy.
At this time our teaching of it is, perhaps, too confined to
reams of "do's" and "do not's," rules and biographies. We
must seek further than this, we must grasp Christianity in
its vaster sense, in the simple yet powerful philosophy
expressed by Jesus Christ, based on infallible truths and
logic. We must learn to understand this, for once under-
stood it cannot but be accepted. We must take it into our
very souls, live it, breathe it, not merely learn to follow it
and spout it out like a memorized poem.

If we can once attain this, we shall surely become men
of high principle; from among us the leaders of tomorrow
will rise, men of principle, men of the required standard.
Then, and only then, will we emerge from this choking cloud
of statistics, materialism, and petty politics. At that time
our problems will resolve themselves in true perspective.
Men will no longer toy with the idea of destroying them-
selves and the earth, neither of which is theirs to destroy,
and man shall live in peace and honour once again.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Trinity Boy Passes Out at Sight of Cigar-Smoking Gliost

Dear Mr. Editor:

This is indeed a very difficult letter to write. I do not
consider myself an alarmist, nor am I in the habit of writing
trumped-up letters to various publications, challenging
them "to print this." In fact I never do it. At school I
neither smoke nor drink strong beverage, seldom read
"trashy" literature, and usually enjoy the maximum hours
of sleep afforded by the school timetable. In short, I have
every reason to believe that I am in tolerable mental health,
or at least that was my impression up to and including
yesterday evening.

Mr. Editor, this morning I saw a ghost. How it is that
I know it was a ghost I cannot say, but I will relate to you
my experience and you must draw your own conclusions.

Because month's marks have silently approached and
caught me unawares, as they are wont to do, I decided that
this morning I would hustle down to the library and do a
little cramming.

When I reached the far end of Brent, I noticed that
there was a light burning in the library. I was surprised
that another student should be similarly inspired at such a
heathenish hour. Sleepily entering the library, I decided
to sit down and thumb through a few magazines to allow
my head to clear before getting down to serious study. While
thus comfortably preoccupied, I became aware of a pair
of heavy-heeled boots clumping about back among the
shelves. This was followed by an off-beat tapping and the
sound of someone humming a tune, the name of which re-
mains unknown to me. All these sounds are common
enough and caused me no concern. However, the next
sensation was that the air contained more than a slight
trace of cigar smoke! Here was justification for con-
templation, and I became thoroughly aroused. Who on earth
would be singing and smoking in the library at any time of
the day, much less in these early hours? I decided to find
out.

6 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

Putting aside my magazine, I gathered up my books
and slowly moved towards the rear of the library. Peering
into the first study section I observed nothing, and so press-
ed on with increased inquisitiveness to the second. It was
there that curiosity nailed me as the cat's partner.

Leaning back in his chair, feet on the table, a foul
cigar clamped between his jaws, and with an air of com-
plete indifference, sat a being who was almost transparent,
a sort of phantom soldier. He was dressed in a worn and
dirty uniform, somewhat similar to the ones used in that
play, "Journey's End," last Easter, only displaying a bloody
patch just below the neck, I expect you would say that he
was of medium height, build, medium everything, though one
detail I do remember very distinctly was the extreme white-
ness of his complexion — the paleness of death.

I can hardly describe to you my emotions at the time.
I was sick, shocked, absolutely terrified, and completely
overcome with physical paralysis, all at the same time.
Noticing me, this "phantom trooper" slowly gained his feet,
smiled an innocent good morning, tossed the book which
he was reading on the table, and with a perfunctory nod
sauntered nonchalantly down the carpet and left the library.
Hesitantly I examined the book. It was as real as a book
can be.

All day I have been in a state of shock, as I am sure
anyone else having a similar experience would be. It has
been most humiliating to write out my story, for I realize,
just as you do, that most of the people who read it will
condemn it as being a trumped-up tale, but I ask you to
print this letter so that anyone else who has also seen or
heard of this creature may communicate with me through
you. I only hope that the search will be successful.

Name withheld by request.

Our first reaction was probably the same as yours is
now. We even planned to comment beneath the letter,
"Really, old chap! Tell us, did he carry his head on his
shoulders or tucked underneath his arm?" However, our

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 7

hackles began to rise when we received a few days later this
letter, in quite different handwriting and obviously not
written by the same character.

Dear Sir:

This letter has nothing to do with our magazine, but
it concerns a matter which I feel should be brought to the
attention of the School, Last Sunday evening, during Even-
song, I made my usual appraisal of the chapel gallery and
was delighted to see a serviceman, dressed in some sort of
traditional dress uniform I would say, intently listening to
the sermon. That he looked rather pale and shoddy is
absolutely no excuse for what followed.

When the two seniors went up to the gallery to take
up collection, they completely ignored him. It looked for
all the world as if they didn't even see him or know that
he existed. They passed him right by, although they gave
everyone else in the entire gallery, including an elderly
couple right behind him, the opportunity of contributing to
the collection. I was surprised, shocked and ashamed at
this flagrant breach of proper conduct, as, I am sure, was
everyone else who witnessed this disgraceful incident.

I trust that you will report this in the Record, and thus
insure that there will not be a repetition of this outrage.

Yours sincerely,

"Disgusted."

As "name withheld by request" says, draw your own
conclusions. It does, however, seem to be a rather intriguing
coincidence does it not! At the moment, all we find our-
selves able to say, and we must say it if we are not to out-
rage "disgusted" again, is a cheery welcome to this Phantom
Trooper. May his stay here be quiet and peaceful! Need-
less to say, we would also appreciate any further informa-
tion concerning our new-found friend. He looks very in-
teresting ! — Ed.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

FOUR GREAT MEN

On November 18, Dr. R. K. Stratford, Scientific Adviser
to Imperial Oil, spoke to the School in Chapel. He began
by reviewing briefly the characteristics common to four
great men as revealed in the following quotations. Two
were playwrights. Sir J. M, Barrie, a Scot, and Edmond
Rostand, a Frenchman. The others were an Irish philosopher,
William Macneile Dixon, and an English scientist. Sir John
Russell.

The following is a quotation taken from "Science and
Modern Life" by Sir John Russell.

"We can never know all about even the simplest thing
in Nature . . . and we can be sure that even that represents
only the fringe of the subject and that far more lies beyond
our present reach."

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 9

The quotation used in illustration of Sir J. M. Barrie
is taken from his book, "Courage."

"Do not stand aloof, despising, disbelieving, but come
in and help . . . There are glorious years lying ahead of
you if you choose to make them glorious. God's in his
heaven still. So forward, brave hearts."

"The Human Situation," one of the great books of to-
day, was written by William Macneile Dixon. Dr. Stratford
cited this passage from the author's greatest achievement.

" 'If we were to do nothing except for a certainty, one
would do nothing for religion, for it is not certain.* It is
Pascal who says so. . . . Pascal! We are none of us wise,
we are all of us on the way to wisdom. Stand then to your
principles, whatever they are. Take this side or that. Fol-
low your star till you see a brighter."

Giving a summary of Edmund Rostand's play, "Cjnrano
de Bergerac," Dr. Stratford illustrated courage of a true
nature revealed in Cyrano's words.

"I know them now, my ancient enemies . . . Falsehood!
. . . There! Three! Prejudice . . . Compromise . . . Cowardice
. . . What's that? No! Surrender? No! Ah, you too. Vanity!
I knew you would throw me in the end ... No! I fight on!
I fight on! I fight on!"

THE REVEREND B. K. CRONK

On Sunday, November 25, we were honoured to have as
speaker in Chapel the Rev. B. K. Cronk, pastor of the United
Church in Port Hope.

Mr. Cronk took his text from the seventeenth chapter
of the Acts of the Apostles in which we find Paul very
annoyed with the idol worship practised by the Athenians.
Continuing along this theme, Mr. Cronk noted that some
people today do not take pride in their beliefs or their
religion. This is, however, the wrong viewpoint. To correct
it we should know what type of God we believe in.

10 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

First of all, we believe God to be our Creator and we
the guardians of his world. Since He is the "Father" of
mankind, we should be kind and considerate towards our
"brothers" regardless of their race, religion, colour, or
social status. They are our equals.

God is also a spirit, Mr. Cronk continued, and we believe
him to be everywhere — through all ages and in all places.
He is also an eternal being, living always and with us
always, no matter what happens.

In conclusion, Mr. Cronk once again emphasized the
fact that it is very important what we believe about God.
It makes a great difference in our lives and our attitude
towards others. It helps us to know what to do in every-
day life and encourages us to look to the future.

ON HOPE

Canon Lawrence spoke to us in Chapel on December 9.
He revealed to us that the program of teaching for the
second Sunday in Advent has been the same since before
the reformation, the emphasis being on the Holy Scripture.

The collect for the day contains the idea of hope in
these words, "that we ever embrace and hold fast the blessed
hope of everlasting life."

Canon Lawrence made clear the wide use of the word
"hope" by illustrating its application through biblical
quotations. We find the word has had great significance
to all the Jewish nation. Messianic hope (Hope for the
coming of the Messiah) resulted in talking, thinking and
writing throughout the Jewish Nation.

Had the Hebrews been a powerful nation, they might
never have hoped for a Deliverer, a Saviour. This hope first
began during the many years spent in slavery in Egypt.

Through centuries conditions grew worse and hope of
Israel became more deeply rooted. Their hope was that
one day the Messiah would come to deliver them from their
enemies.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD H

We find evidence that their hope was fulfilled in the
fact that we, throughout the Christian world, sing Hebrew
psalms and pray to the God of the Hebrews.

In three short years of actual teaching our Lord brought
to the world hope for the everlasting life to come.

CANON LAWRENCE SPEAKS TO
THE SCHOOL

On January 13, Canon Lawrence addressed the School
in the first Sunday service of the New Year. He said that
Jesus had once told his listeners, "Remember Lot's wife."
Our Lord was thinking of the expected destruction of
Jerusalem when everyone would have to evacuate the city
on a moment's notice. He warned them not to be like Lot's
wife, who was imable to quickly tear herself away from
the burning city of Sodom where she had hved for many
years. Because of her inability to disentangle herself from
her old environment and adjust to a new one, she was turned
into a pillar of salt. For us this means that death was
her penalty for clinging too tightly to past associations and
probably fearing the future.

In great literature we notice how the forward attitude
and the ability to detach oneself from the past is emphasized.
Levi, the publican, and Francis of Assisi both left their
secure positions and associations for an unsure future in
the Chiu-ch. Ulysses, unlike his lotus-poisoned men, was
anxious to quit his soft existence and sought to "sail beyond
the paths of the western stars."

The warning that Jesus gave to his listeners has special
significance for us on this occasion. We should not spend
our time regretting the past, but rather look forward to
this coming new year with hope and courage.

BEATI MUNDO CORDE

On January 20, the Honourable Mr. Justice P. H. Gor-
don ('00-'02) of Regina spoke in Chapel.

He began by remarking on what a wonderful institution
the boarding school was. When you leave you are a member
of the greatest fraternity on earth, and have friends that
will last all your life. While you are here the terms may
seem long, but once you are out, you realize they were all
too short, and you see how fortunate you were to be able
to come here.

Judge Grordon then told a story illustrating a funda-
mental principle which a person should follow. A frightened
team of dogs stopped at the edge of a frozen bay and
refused to go further. Aboard the sled was the antitoxin
necessary to save the people of Nome, Alaska, from a
diphtheria epidemic. But Balto, the lead dog, had such faith
in his master's judgement that he ventured out on the ice
and inspired the other dogs to follow his example. They
reached Nome and the people were saved. This shows that
we too should put our trust in our Master and his teach-
ings, and do our best by following his example. Remember
Christ's promise to us: "Be thou faithful unto death and
I will give you a crown of life."

Mr. Justice Grordon's whole message was contained in
the School motto, "Beati mundo corde" — "Blessed are the
pure in heart." To be pure in heart, he said, was the rock
foundation of a good character.

THE PURE IN HEART

On Sunday, January 27, the Reverend H. B. Snell spoke
in Chapel. In his introduction he stated that Christ set
forth his ideas on achieving happiness in the Beatitudes,
the beginning of the Sermon on the Mount. Mr. Snell told
us the meaning of one of these, namely, "Blest are the
pure in heart, for they shall see God." In this instance,

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 13

the "heart" refers to the mind, which Jesus knew to have
a great effect on true happiness and physical health. In
our modern age, Mr. Snell continued, much evil is often
concealed behind a facade of beauty, like scurrilous books
bound in attractive covers; true Christians know that to
yield to convention in these cases is to pollute the mind.
Knowing that God is present everywhere, we can see Him
by observing his beautiful handiwork in Nature. God also
reveals himself to us in human nature; for example, the
lives of the saints. Unfortunately, cynical and selfish acts
take precedence in most places, even in the newspapers,
over acts of unselfishness and self-sacrifice. However, if
we seek God now and serve Him, we will see Him even
more clearly in heaven. In this way, a pure life leads to a
vision of God. Worshipping together is one way of being
close to God and growing in purity and holiness; we should
always expect God's message to cleanse and guide us.

Secondly, daily Bible reading lets God pierce the dark-
ness of our world with his shining grace and power. Thirdly,
we should spend some quiet time alone daily, when we can
sense more keenly God's presence. Through these three
methods of service we may be blessed by seeing God.

ADDRESS GIVEN IN CHAPEL ON FEBRUARY 10, 1957
By ]^ir. C Soott

Texts: Zech. 8-16, Execute the judgment of truth and
peace shall be in your gates.

Jerem. 7-23: Obey my voice that it may be well with
thee.

Matth. 7-7: Ask and it shall be given you, seek and ye
shall find.

These three texts might be reduced to three words as
headings for the three points I want to pass on to you this
evening. These leading words are truth, obey, and ask or
pray. So I want to stress them as they are related to our
daily life and dealings with others.

14 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

In reading the Bible one is impressed with the number
of times reference is made to truth and obedience and in
nearly every case they are closely related to one another
and also to the peace of mind and well-being which result
from their observance.

You may remember in St. John's account of the trial
of Jesus before Pilate, that Our Lord said that He was born
into this world that He might bear witness unto the truth,
and Pilate answered with the question, "What is truth?"
and without waiting for an answer went out and spoke to
the Jews who were demanding Christ's crucifixion.

Without daring to give an answer to that question, I
suppose it would be a fair but entirely inadequate statement
that truth is that property in every phase of nature which
keeps the world spinning and you and me able to enjoy
our lives. In order to demonstrate what I mean, let us con-
sider two widely different examples. First, if you plant a
plumstone and leave it alone in good ground for some time,
there will grow from it a plum tree whether or not it is
surrounded by trees of any other sort. Nature is true to
type. If it were not so all our sowing and planting would
lead to chaos and trouble. For my other example let us
consider the tire of a car. You might be the proud owner
of the finest car made with every luxury and all the latest
devices but if one tire is flat, that is, not a true circle, there
will be no peace, no comfort, no progress.

And so it is that investigators for hundreds and even
thousands of years have sought for the truth of many of
nature's secrets and as a result of their efforts we are
able to enjoy the many conveniences which we accept as
essential to everyday life, to our comfort and peace of mind.
Our telephones, televisions, cars and planes are among the
hundreds of results achieved in one branch of study.

Similarly medical research into the truth of the
mechanisms of the human body has done wonders for the
improvement of the health of the million.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORX) 15

Similarly again, philosophers, statesmen, educationists
and others, by their efforts to find the truth in the matter
of human relationships have slowly and sometimes pain-
fully built our present democracy of which we boast so
much. We must admit that there are many faults to be
corrected, and why; is it not that it has for its foundation
personal and individual truth and honesty?

Now it is to be observed that in an argument with
friend or foe, one is apt to watch very keenly that he keeps
strictly to the truth and one is annoyed or even angered
if it is found that he has not done so — especially if it is
one's own words or actions that are under discussion. But —
are we always as careful when we are relating our own
actions or the actions of others, to keep to the truth with
the same consistency as we expect from them. I think not.

Again, where we are far less careful of the truth, or
shall I say, like Pilate, do not enquire too deeply into the
matter, is when we examine our own thoughts or the reasons
for our own conduct on various occasions, we prefer to
think of something else like Pilate, not to have our Lord's
answer to his question, "what is truth."

Now let us consider for a short time the second text: —
Obey my voice that it may be well with you. The very word
obey possibly has the effect of making many of us shrink
into ourselves thinking that we have enough or too much
of that in our school life. Every time the bell rings we
have to do something. I can hear someone thinking, "Now
I have to go and play hockey, another, now I have to go and
eat, another, now I have to go to bed." Notice, it is not
that we dislike the thing we have to do but it is the obliga-
tion to do it now. It is not strange therefore that any boy
and especially those who are in their last year should look
forward with keen anticipation to the time when there will
be no more bells, no calls to get up, to eat, or to go to bed.
But, and it is a very big but, have these school years which
rush by so fast that you are amazed that you have been
through it all from fagging to prefect or senior, have they

16 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL REX:;ORD

served to teach you the necessity for self discipline. Would
you without those bells have brought yourselves to your
present state of achievement? Many of you would answer
yes to that question but on the other hand they are a help
to many and all of you are learning, I hope, almost un-
consciously the real value of obedience and self -discipline
and if not, what is to help you when the restraints of school
are removed.

In these years of school life there are many hours spent
according to your own desires. Are you during these times
which are the most important in the formation of you as
a man, setting up laws and regulations for your own con-
duct? In your games, and still more important, in your idle
hours, are you obeying the very clear dictates of your con-
science or do you try to push it aside? Obey my voice and
it shall be well with you. Your conscience is the voice of
God and your truest friend and guide whether now or in
later life. There is no time in life when we can disobey
that still small voice and yet have peace in ourselves. We
are free to act as we like, we have free will but we must
remember that every thought, word or action has its effect
on our future either for good or for ill. If we give way
once it is easier to do so again. Also if we win once it is
easier to do so again. And so we come back to the subject
of truth. You cannot lie to yourself and get away with it.
To thine own self be true and it must follow as the night
the day, thou canst not then be false to any man. We owe
it to ourselves to lay down laws which shall not be broken.
Obedience does not end with the end of school life but
begins at that point with more insistence as it is then based
on self control and self discipline.

Now when we stress self control and self discipline the
question arises as to whether that is the best that is avail-
able to us. Some of us at this time of the year are getting
anxious about our progress especially after the results of
the last examinations. We returned this term with fresh
resolutions. We may feel that we have got into some bad

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 17

habits, that we were careless of our thoughts, our words.
If we have become weak and failed in our resolves it ia
perhaps that we have relied too much on ourselves. We
have been too proud, too self-satisfied or too lazy to seek
help from that source which never fails. If you are weak,
ask for strength; if you are false to yourself, go to the
source of truth. Jesus says, "I am the way, the truth and
the life. Ask and it shall be given you, seek and ye shall
find. And here we are at the subject of prayer. Bring your
problems, whatever they are, whether algebra, latin or your-
self, whatever you find hard to master, take them to Jesus
Christ, the way, the truth and the life. Let Him speak to
you in this Chapel and at His altar and then with faith
and patience and His strength go back to your books.

Every morning we stand up and say the Lord's prayer —
give us this day our daily bread, and remember that He
said, "man does not live by bread alone but by every word
that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.

Truth, obedience, prayer, T.O.P. top, and of these three
virtues or accomplishments the highest is prayer for in this
last we receive from Him the power for truth and the
peace of mind which results, and the well-being which fol-
"ows from obedience to His will.

SNOW

On Sunday, February 17, the School was privileged
to hear the Rev. Mr. Baird of Port Hope speak in Chapel.
Mr. Baird took for his text. Job 38:28: "Hast thou not
entered into the treasure of the snow?" He noted that
his reference showed us that snow did have mention in the
Bible.

Snow appears as frozen drops of water which are white
in colour. This is only partially correct since the white
colour is only reflected light. Hence snow is, in one way,
not what it seems to be. Herein we see a truth which
applies to us also. Many people appear outwardly to act in
one way but in reality their inner self is quite different.

18 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

Snow also shows the beauty of God even though man
often does not realize it. For example, snow, to the motorist,
appears to be only a hindrance. Actually the well-known
substance we call snow serves an invaluable purpose in pro-
tecting vegetation during the winter, thus giving an example
of God's goodness to man.

Finally, the white colour, which is usually associated
with snow, could be compared to the purity of God, neces-
sary in our hearts, bodies, and minds for good living.

In closing, Mr. Baird showed that these characteristics
should indicate the beauty of snow, and so remind us of
the three necessities of our lives: beauty, goodness and
purity.

THE CAROL SERVICE

On Sunday, December 16, the annual Christmas Carol
Service was held in the Memorial Chapel. Many visitors
had taken their places as the choir entered the sanctuary
singing the processional hymn, "Adeste Fideles."

The first lesson, read by J. A. Burton of Boulden House,
outlined God's promise to Abraham that in his seed, all the
nations of the earth should be blessed. The choir then sang
"Gabriel's Message," a carol from an old Basque Noel, the
senior choir following with "Christ is Born" (Bridge) . Both
numbers were unaccompanied.

The second reading, by C. E. Chaffey, followed "O
Little Town of Bethlehem" and outlined Christ's birth and
Kingdom as related by the prophet Isaiah. "Good King
Wenceslas" was sung with Higgins, Naylor and Seagram as
soloist. After this, the choir sang "If Ye Would Hear"
(Williams, Shaw) and the junior choir "Our Brother is
Born" (Far jean). The whole congregation took part in
singing the traditional carol, "Shepherds in the Field Abid-
ing."

The third lesson, relating the angel Gabriel's visit to
the blessed Virgin Mary, was read by C. J. English. The

TRINITY CQTJiKGE SCHOOL RECORD 10

choir continued with "Whence Come You Good Shepherd"
(Willan) and the senior choir with N. J. Boyd and S. A.
Saunders as soloists sang "What Child is This?" to the old
English carol tune of Greensleeves. Preceding the fourth
lesson by C. H. S. Dunbar, which outlined the journey of
the shepherds unto the manger, the congregation as a whole
sang "The First Nowell." The choir followed with "The
Holly and the Ivy" (Walford-Davies) which was divided
among the jimiors and seniors of the choir, with the juniors
soloing the verses while the full choir came in on the chorus.
"Ding! Dong! Merrily on High" (Wood) was the next carol
to be sung.

The Headmaster related St. John's imparting of the
mystery of the incarnation in the final lesson, taken from
St. John I. The collection was received during the offertory
hymns, "Silent Night" and "While Shepherds Watched Their
Flocks by Night." After the prayers and the Blessing the
choir retired from the gallery and recessed out of the chapel
during the hymn "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing."

So ended another excellent Christmas carol service. We
extend our thanks and gratitude to Mr. Cohu and the choir
who spent a great deal of practice time to make the service
a complete success.

TRINITY COLUEGE SCHOOL RECORD

HUNGARIAN RELIEF

At the beginning of December the School contributed
$262.00 to Hungarian Relief; the sale of a Christmas Card
designed and executed by Hugh Gordon, and printed by the
Librarians and members of the Art class, brought in close to a
hundred dollars.

A draft for $362.00 was sent to Mrs. Amea Willoughby
whose husband is a member of the U.S. Embassy in Vienna.
Mrs. Willoughby, a daughter of the Rev. F. H. Brewin, had
worked from the beginning to help the refguees in every way;
she wrote a most appreciative letter to the School, and
said she was devoting the sum to the Children's Friendship
Fund. "Such a gift was never more needed and appreciated . . .
It was a frantic effort to try to make bricks without straw
. . , We try to help all ages and kinds and run the kitchen with
22 volunteers seven days a week from 9 a.m. until 7 p.m.
Yesterday we fed 3800 refugees who had stood in the cold
from dawn to dusk"

CHRISTMAS CHEER

Once again the collection at the Carol Service went to
help needy families in Montreal, Toronto, Hamilton, London,

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 21

Kingston and Port Hope. Both young and old were given
assistance in the form of food and clothing and most appre-
ciative letters were received by the School.

THE T.C.S. ANNUAL FOOTBAIX DINNER

This year's dinner was marked by the same high
spirits that had prevailed the previous year, mainly stem-
ming from the fact that the First Football team had emerged
from the Little Big Four season tied for the Championship
with St. Andrew's. The dinner saw the return of many
Old Boys and the attendance of a greater number of parents
of players than ever before.

The Headmaster read many of the congratulatory
messages that he and Mr. Lawson had received on behalf
of the team. The guest speaker, Mr. Seppi DuMoulin, long
time player and officer of the Hamilton Tiger-Cats, spoke
on the high quality of the athletic programme run at T.C.S.
and gave us some colourful glimpses from the pages of
Canadian Football history. Mr. DuMoulin, widely recognized
as Canada's "grand old man of sports," talked to us about
standards in games, and in particular about the high calibre
of sportsmanship for which the Little Big Four has always
been noted. He deplored the present trend throughout the
country towards an excessively professional attitude, with
its emphasis on winning even at the cost of the game it-
self. We were reminded that schools such as T.C.S. must
set the pattern for a return to the classic traditions of the
Greeks who were true amateurs and played solely for the
joy and honour of healthy competitive activity. Mr. DuMoulin
was proud to feel that T.C.S. boys continue as always to
play wholeheartedly and successfully, without ever ceasing
to be gentlemen. He congratulated the team on its success
in combining excellence in proficiency with excellence in
attitude.

Mr. Argue Martin, Chairman of the Board of Gover-
nors, congratulated all the teams on their fine performance

22 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL. RECORD

and he was followed by Mr. Lawson, the coach, who made
special reference to the fine spirit of co-operation displayed
by all members of the team. Mr. Hodgetts explained the
football system in vogue at the School in his reply to the
toast to the team. Phil Muntz, another football celebrity,
was called upon to say a few words on professional football.
He strongly recommended that the boys play football at
college if it were at all possible.

When the last of the festivities were over, Mrs. Clarke
and her kitchen staff were toasted for the excellent dinner
that they had prepared and everybody retired to the
Assembly Hall to see the movies of the Upper Canada game.

WILSON MACDONALD

The School was honoured on February 8 by the visit
of one of Canada's foremost poets, Wilson MacDonald. In
the assembly room, Mr. MacDonald told the School how
he came to write some of his poems. He told us of several
experiences and then read the poems that he had been in-
spired to write about them. He related the story of a young
Scotch lass, seven years old, whom he had met in Vancouver
and had grown fond of. WTien he unfortunately had to
leave her he was heartbroken, and looked forward with
great anticipation to the day when he would be able to
return and see her again. When at last this day did come
he wandered to their favourite spot by the seashore, and
when he could not find her he asked for her. "But haven't
you heard?" the people said. "Little brown Dee has died."
Mr. MacDonald then wrote one of his favourite poems,
"Whist A Wee," in memory of this sweet child.

Wilson MacDonald then told the School of a wonder-
ful natural ski jump in Vermont which he had often been
over. The thrill of the jump with the whistle of the wind
in his ear and the birch trees flashing past him like etchings
against the blue sky made such an impression on him that
he was inspired to write the "Song of the Ski."

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECOFUD 23

Mr. MacDonald showed us one of his books, "The Lyric
Years," which has a poem for each month of the year written
in his own italic handwriting which varied according to the
month, heavy and bold for the winter, light and breezy
for the summer months. Mr. MacDonald spent several years
of his life in transforming Biblical passages into poetry and
composing music to sing them to. Others of his books from
which he read poetry were "A Flagon of Beauty," "Armand
Dussault," "Caw-Caw Ballads," and "Out of the Wilderness."

Mr. MacDonald kindly stayed behind later to talk with
some of the Sixth Form boys. The School was greatly im-
pressed by his many poems and our thanks are due him
for his much appreciated visit.

HOCKEY RALLY

January 25, 9.30 p.m., the Assembly Room. The theme
song for the evening was a rather unconventional vocal,
arranged to the tune of the Saints. Accompaniment was
provided by Adam Saunders' world-famed quintet. The
feature was soon to follow on the programme as the Weeper
struck up a solo beat. Noranda ran the show and, we
imderstand, reported unfit for service to Mr. Cohu the fol-
lowing day.

THE LIBRARY

This term has been a very successful one for the
library, especially in obtaining new books. Since last Novem-
ber, the library has obtained 181 books, many donated and
the rest bought by the library itself. Among the donors
were P. Gross, Mrs. S. C. Goering, G. N. Bethune, F. K. A.
Rutley, W. Holton, Imperial Oil, Lionel Massey, Canon
Lawrence, and Mrs. P. A. C. Ketchum. The paper-back shelf
has helped to increase the reading in the School from forty
books last year at this time to one hundred and forty-two
books this year — a very large increase.

24 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

From the Suggestion Book which was placed in the
library have come many worth-while additions such as
"The Mary Deare" and "An American Tragedy." This Sug-
gestion Book is a great aid to the library in buying books
because it gives us an indication of our readers' interests.

SPACE TRAVEL

On February 10, the School was honoured by a visit
from Mr. David E. Wallis, an aeronautical engineer, who
showed some slides and talked to us on the fascinating
story of the conquest of space.

Before showing his slides Mr. Wallis explained that the
history of rocket development can be divided into three
stages. The first stage began with the invention of the
rocket by the Chinese in 1225. The second stage saw the
development of the high altitude rockets, the first being
the German V-2, initially launched in 1942. The third stage
of development is just about to begin this year, 1957, with
the tiny, basketball-sized satellites which, it is hoped, will
send much important information back to earth.

Through his slides Mr. Wallis showed us all the im-
portant developments in rockets since the V-2. In describing
the modern rockets, he explained that they are constructed
in three stages or sections, each with its own fuel supply.
The first two stages are designed to leave the last stage at
the right moment and to return to the earth by parachute.
Mr. Wallis said that in the next four years piloted space
ships will be sent out into space to circle the earth in an
orbit for short lengths of time. Like the satellites they will
gather more scientific information before returning to the
earth.

The first trip outside the gravitational pull of our
planet will be to the moon and should come within the next
twenty years. The first expedition will just circle the moon,
gleaning scientific information from the mysterious "other
side." Succeeding expeditions will land on the moon and
eventually set up a base there.

After the moon will come Mars. When we have landed
on the "red planet" and explored it, a base will be established
there too. We will encounter many problems on Mars and
on the moon, many of which we are preparing for now,
but Mr. Wallis feels confident that we shall overcome them
all, and that someday we will populate the other planets.

After his most interesting talk, Mr. Wallis was asked
many questions about rockets and the exploration of space.
In his answers we learned many things which we had never
before realized.

We should like to express our sincere thanks to Mr.
Wallis for a most entertaining and profitable evening.

SCHOOL NOTES

It is not often that T.C.S. has had the privilege of enter-
taining two distinguished authors in one term but that was
the case this Lent Term. Mr. Peter Fleming came to Port
Hope to address the Canadian Club and had lunch in Hall.
The Headmaster introduced him to the School, mentioning
particularly his amazing travels in the Orient and South
America, the fascinating stories he had written and his dis-
tinguished war service. Succinctly and wittily Mr. Fleming
told the School some of the sine qua non's for a traveller and
explorer.

Mr. and Mrs. David Walker were in Hall for lunch on the
day the Management Committee of the T.C.S. Fund met at
the School. It was also the day we entertained visiting teams
hence it was not possible to ask Mr. Walker to speak to the
School. He was a prisoner for most of the war and for ten
years he has been living in the Maritimes where he has writ-
ten most of his books. He travels much to obtain new ma-
terial.

There has been a run on Peter Fleming and David
Walker in the Library ever since their visit.

26 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

Spring came suddenly to T.C.S. this year: in the middle
of March it was still winter, with ice on the outside rink,
and all the ponds in the country frozen. Ten days later there
was no ice or snow outside, boys were playing tennis and
throwing cricket balls around, and the trees were full of
birds. But there is still cold air in too large quantities.

Two young Old Boys have spoken in Chapel this term,
John Dowker and Mr. Sandy Heard, and their remarks made
a deep impression on the School. Next term, John Barton
is coming to spend a week end at the School and in the
autumn we hope to have Tom Wilding and David Smith. John
Barton and John Dowker are being ordained in June and
Tom Wilding and David Smith are to be ordained a year
from June.

BETHUNE HOUSE NOTES

As the good ship "BETHUNE" majestically sweeps
over the rolling swells of life's vicissitudes, a stocky figure
paces the bridgehead with the determined confidence of a
man who is steeped in the ancient traditions of LADY

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 27

BETHUNE. This, of course, is our captain. The attitude
of the ship's company is the same as his, from the Officer
of the Watch down to the landlubbers who joined the ship
at Pointe de Septembre. The ideaJs of our Patron Lady
have gripped us all, well, almost all. if it were not for that
wisp of smoke curling heavenwards from the crow's nest!

Boiling along over the BOUNDYing main, the ship is
witness to many tragic tales. Take the story of that stal-
wart mariner BILLeted in the engine room, BLACKER
than most, who complains that a fair young maiden back
in old T.O. has done him wrong. "S.HART," he says, though
his shattered ego is somewhat soothed by WALTER'S Hi-Fi,
blaring and echoing off the bulkheads, oozing through the
tender aroma of SHRIMPS and KIPpers, invading even the
shower.

Down the spotless corridor the story has a similar ring.
CAW still dreams of lying in the HEATHER back in the
old country, though DOUG has done his utmost to drum
the idea out of his head. "MARK my words," he warns,
"your little LAMBykins will reduce you to another URCHIN
before you're through!" "Gad!", sez CAW, visibly shaken.

Swanking about on the Middle Deck we find quite a
remarkable part of the clan. HOPEY seems to like roughing
it without sheets, and in the same vein , GORGEOUS
GEORGE appears to feel that white shirts are night shirts!
Unfortunately, in the far corner, GAVIN has contracted
BARRY-BARRY, his face GREY with pain, his head swathed
in a cooling TOWLE. JOHN was so worried that he took
a SEABORNe taxi all the way from Oshawa! However, it
was all to no avail, for the patient passed to his reward
(J.R.S.) on the following Sunday.

Down the way where the KNIGHTs are gay a new
addition has been made. A stork came WINGing across
that HUGHge watery expanse sometime before DON, made
a rather SHAKEY landing on the WOODen after-deck, and
ceremoniously deLEVered its precious burden. Congratula-
tions to those involved!

28 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

Scrambling onto the upper deck, we are thrust into
the glittering brilliance given off by the senior academic
minds aboard ship; KAPUS and his cohorts are at it again.
Meanwhile, caring not a whit for such knavery, SMILEY
joyously caresses the ORGAN keyboard, bringing forth
beautiful music until way into the night. All this is brought
to an abrupt end when GROPO is attacked by a bat in his
room. He lets out a SAVAGE bellow and pretty soon has
everyone in a real STEW.

Meanwhile nearly all those aboard have become in-
fatuated with life at sea, and in another section of the ship
several of them are discussing the possibility of enrolling
in the Royal Navy.

"The R.N.", sez NEEK, "is purely for FARMERS."
"Yeah," agrees ROSS, "them LIMEYs kin hardly speak
ENGLISH."

"Much rather fly m'self," sez BWAWN.
"Clamaud!" sez GERALD.

At the conclusion of this intelligent interchange of
ideas, the various participants stand up groggily, yawning,
STRETCH their backs, SPREAD their arms wide, shake
themselves awake, and lounge over towards the rail. After
a few minutes of reflection, silently observing the darkening
waters, they disappear one by one below decks.

Evening deepens around the ship, and soon night has
drained the colour from the western sky, but the good ship
BETHUNE sails onward, sure of purpose, in full knowledge
of her destination. The water slips beneath her bow, like
time itself, and drifts back into the wake where it is
momentarily molded into nostalgia before fading into
obscurity. Some of the waves on the surface of time are
larger than others, affect the ship and the crew more than
others, but they too are soon forgotten. But through it all,
through hardship and success, through human life and death,
the good ship BETHUNE steams through time to destiny.

BUS TRIPS

There comes a day in the life of every boarding school
man when he climbs aboard a bus, usually to travel to
another school for a game of some sort. These trips are
always keenly anticipated as a change in the routine, as a
chance to represent T.C.S. against some rival, and, (let's
face it!) , an opportunity to take in some of those city lights
which he left behind when he came to school. These excur-
sions are among the highlights of life at any out-of-town
boarding school. Someday, though, the last trip will end
in front of Trinity House, and only then will they be truly
appreciated.

Do you remember those times when you climbed aboard
a bus for the return trip to Port Hope? If the game was
successful then everybody was in a good mood, if the game
was unsuccessful . . . well, dour expressions did not cloud
many faces for long. That return trip is the best cure-all
for those "down-in-the-mouth" spirits, for who is going to
sit quietly when there are all those songs to be sung before
reaching school? It's during moments like this that you
realize how much you are enjoying yourself with some of
the best friends that you'll ever make.

The trip from School to the field of battle is much
quieter by comparison. It's still too early in the morning
to want to make any noise, and most thoughts are turned
towards the coming contest. Everyone settles down and

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 35

stares vacantly at the passing countryside. On Toronto
trips the most important feature of the landscape is the
"Wishing Bridge," a narrow little stone tunnel under the
railway which, because of its low height and arched ceiling,
forces the bus to pass through it in the centre of the road.
There must be silence from the passengers as the bus hurtles
through, to strengthen your wish. It will be a sad day
indeed when the "Wishing Bridge" crumbles under the heel
of progress.

Of course, with every trip someone must stay behind.
The School is silent as all the lads sweat away in their
study, but suddenly the throaty roar of the returning bus
passing the classroom block breaks the spell. Windows
scrape open and cries of "Who won?", are shouted at the
first figures off the bus as it grinds to a stop with a hiss
of air brakes. Rumours fly. "Bigside lost? Littleside won
by six goals!" Finally everybody has gleaned the truth
from some tired boys after they have tossed their equipment
on the floor of the changing room. We won after all and
so to bed.

LIFE IN THE COUNTRY

T.C.S. is very lucky to be located on the eastern edge
of Port Hope overlooking the countryside and Lake Ontario.
From the School hill one can see to the east the hills near
Cobourg with the flat farmland in between. By looking
northward past Boulden House, one is able to visualize the
ski camp nestled in its wooded valley among the trees. A
mile south of the School lies Lake Ontario with the Peter
Rock lighthouse some distance out from shore. In this area
of farmland and bush there is much to do for a boy with
some spare time.

One eagerly awaited event of nature that is as old as
T.C.S. itself is the annual run of suckers up Gage's creek
every spring. On a warm spring Saturday, the only thing
to do is to find a light but strong club and head for the

36 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

creek with some other "fishermen." On arrival, the
technique is to wade into the shallows and apply the club
to a sucker before he swims out of reach, as he most cer-
tainly will do his best to make a sucker out of you! It is
not as easy as it sounds since these fish swim at a great
rate of speed and the bottom is none too even except for
a few flats where the fish are never found. In a good day,
a bag of several hundred suckers will satisfy all concerned
and a soaking wet but happy and bedraggled lot of boys
will leave the creek and run (it's too cold to walk) back
to School for supper. Thus passes a spring Saturday.

Winter brings a variety of occupations to the fore. One
of these is exploring the weird ice formations on the shore
of the lake. The actions of high winds, big waves, and cold
weather all combined produce all sorts of different shapes
and large floes that often extend forty yards out from
shore. Natural ice bridges are formed and small "volcanic"
mountains of ice are common. One can look down the cone
and see the icy water heaving back and forth with the
waves.

Still on the subject of ice, the Ganaraska River pro-
duces some good sport during the spring break-up. The ice
above the old dam breaks up into large cakes which are
large enough to be ridden like rafts on their journey down-
stream. Inevitably, everyone falls, or is thrown, in and that
rather puts a damper on things.

A favourite walk is south of the School to the C.P.R.
main line, east along it to Gage's creek, then back to the
School by the road. On a beautiful day, this walk always
seems to do something for you!

To the north of town lies the Pat Moss ski camp to
which small groups of boys may travel for a week-end. Here
there is lots to do no matter what the season. The latest
addition to the camp is popularly known as the "Animal" —
a type of sleigh made from old skis and boards. Once down
the steep hill on the "Animal" and you'll have something
to talk ^bout for a long time to come. Another pastime,

TRINITY COLiLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 37

just as tiring but a little gentler, is exploring the large
woodland traversed by the headwaters of Gage's creek.

Thus, with its location, T.C.S. is able to offer many
things to those who can find a spare afternoon aside from
School activities. The skier and the rare bird watcher can
both pursue their interests in the immediate vicinity of the
School. It all adds up to "never a dull moment."

STUDY

"Nothing is good or bad but thinking makes it so." Thus,
after two discouraging hours at night, we usually find that
studies resolve themselves into the "bad" category. Thinking
out mathematical sticklers or, perhaps, interpreting Juliet's
actual interest in Romeo, tends to bore the mind. The latter,
quite reasonably, less so than the former.

Proceed with me, if you will, to the various study abodes,
being careful of course to tread lightly in avoidance of the
Master On Duty. Firstly, a typical bottom flat room has its
door ever so slightly propped open. Assuredly our fear of
the prowling authorities is shared by others ! These two must
be scholars for they are undisturbed by our entry. Front or
no they appear to be thirsty for knowledge.

We find that the venerable seat of learning, the library,
is disturbed by the cat requesting entrance somewhat vol-
ubly. "Don't let the kitty get in," chants one. Another, with
more affection for the feline intruder, opens up the window
and the cat leaps in. It treads softly across the table and rubs
against someone's lowered head. In the commotion that fol-
lows, a librarian appears on the scene, and soon removes the
popular hero. Silence returns.

As we approach the H and K supervised study, we meet
two fellows just exiting from the classrooms.

"Hey, where are you going?"

They, in unison, "Haircut!"

"Joke session you mean," I mutter under my breath, re-
ferring to Roy's speciality.

38 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL. RECORD

Peering in through the open door of H and K we see a
picture of mass concentration. One joker in the corner tries
firing a dart, but on receiving four quarters he gets back
to work mighty quickly.

Yet how incomplete is the picture one gets from this
tour of inspection! It so appears that the diligent go beyond
the compulsory periods and delve into the books in the mo-
ments of spare time during the day. Extra study to some is
compulsory. These few indulge in supplementary enlighten-
ment during the afternoon.

Shortly after six a.m., the early bird awakens to
the loud announcement of his alarm, and follows one of
two courses open to him. He either admits defeat and saws
back into his log, or else he bravely gets up and half sleeps,
half walks, to the library. Silence at TCS seems queer, and the
studious one feels quite alone until others join him at his
early morning occupation. Feeling his cramming complete,
our early worm-seeker shambles back to bed, oversleeps, and
makes it to breakfast four minutes late.

Exam time finds students attempting to follow "the
sequestered vale" of life, for they retire to unheard of cubby-
holes. Davers, who is cleaning up at five o'clock every morn-
ing, found some ingenious lad sleeping in the darkroom!
June approaches, so I leave you in peace with this warning,
find your hideaway soon !

A DAY IN THE DORM

(or)

SURVrVAL OF THE FITTEST

"Ring" or "Groan" — I can't decide which best describes
the morning dorm. Noises at 7.00 a.m. The first noise comes
from the hall; the latter noise from our living quarters.
Of course, it's vice versa when one is reporting to a prefect.
The ring of the alarm is inside and the groan is outside
when one receives orders to circumscribe the campus twice.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 39

"Hey, stupid, that was the fiver!" There is a mad rush
first to the bathroom then to the door which will imfor-
tunately let only one person through at a time. "You can
call me Bannister — I made it with ten seconds to spare."

After breakfast, during which we have time to recu-
perate from our earlier experiences, we arrive back in the
dorm to find our beds strewn all over the place. After
throwing on a few blankets and smoothing the top down
we hastily clean up crumbs, broken pop-bottles, and other
assorted junk. We get this finished just as a prefect enters,
trying to find a feasible excuse for getting us up the next
morning. Luckily, we are one step ahead of him, and he
has to find his victims in another dorm.

Now, silence for ten minutes — everybody's doing last
minute study until the fiver when we all rush to class to
get a back-row seat.

So life goes on in the dormitory. Our worst enemy is
the school bell and our best friend our bed although few
ever seem to realize this fact.

After evening chapel, the dorm is generally a modified
madhouse — more beds are dumped and fights are not uncom-
mon. Excuse me if I'm tipping off the authorities.

Following that drawn-out two hours known as study
we either clamber or crawl into bed depending on the day
we have just finished. If we are in a clambering mood, we
are commonly known as a house officer's nightmare. The
poor fellow will probably have to use strong-arm methods
in this case and even then we often prove to be a problem
as regards shutting up after lights-out.

Things have now quieted down. But no! There goes
someone snoring again. Well, I'll use my pillow to plug
my ears. Cough! Choke! This is no good — I'm suffocating
myself. Oh, yes — I have to get up tomorrow. Finally, con-
ditions are suitable for getting some shut-eye.

Rrringg! There's my alarm. I get up and dress and
am downstairs in no time. I reach the hall and the clock
says five o'clock. That's not right so I take another look.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

But yes, it is right. I'm two hours early. Back to bed to
try and rest.

"Hey, stupid, there's the fiver. By the way, weren't
you supposed to report at seven o'clock?"

Groan! Here we go again.

FALSE LARCENY

As soon as Henry Bilow was seated, he experienced
his first qualms of guilt. Could this really be he, attending
a movie in the middle of a Wednesday afternoon? Never
before in the eighteen years he had worked for the Perkins
Leather Goods Company had he indulged himself in such
a way.

Slowly as his eyes adjusted to the silhouettes of the
theatre, he began to feel more confident. The darkness
obscured the outlines of any objects about him and such
anonymity had a lulling effect on his senses. He had arrived
just as the newsreel was starting. Henry lifted his sample
case onto the seat beside him and settled back to enjoy the
glimpses of life that flashed before him. This was going
to be a delightful afternoon.

The newsreel passed quickly into a sports-short, into
a Bugs Bunny cartoon, and finally into darkness. Henry
turned one leg over the other and waited for the feature
picture. The theatre remained dark for several more

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 41

moments and Henry became conscious of low disapproving
sounds that gradually swept through the audience.

Finally the stage lights brightened and a small bald-
headed man came onto the stage and stepped into the light.
He appeared awkward and nervous and Henry immediately
cast him as a old-time comedian who would lead the audience
in college songs. The small man fumbled with the micro-
phone momentarily and then began speaking. "Ladies and
Gentlemen, your attention, please," he said. "Something
very unusual has happened and we must have your com-
plete co-operation. In a few minutes our ushers will pass
up the aisles searching for an important envelope which
has been lost." The ushers hurriedly searched the theatre,
but without result. Going once more to the microphone,
the manager said, "Are you positive that there isn't a
envelope under your seat?" Immediately everybody looked
under his seat but no one found anything. Meanwhile Henry
remained unimpressed by this and had not bothered to
search. The little man on the stage told the audience that
the reason for all this fuss was that a bank robber had
held up a local bank several days before and had since been
caught. When questioned, he confessed and said that he
had hid the money under one of the seats in this particular
theatre. However, since nothing had been discovered, the
man said they would inform the Florida police, and have
them question the robber further. He apologized, left the
stage, and in a few minutes the main feature started.

Henry leant back in his seat, and thought how in-
credibly odd all this was. He could not seem to concentrate
on the main feature, although, surely, this was only foolish-
ness. Okay, just feel the next seat. No, watch the picture.
Do it slowly so no one will see you. That's it, slow. No harm
done. There I told you. Nothing. Go back to the picture.
There was still the seat under him. No. no, no, he was
behaving like an adolescent idiot. No, I promise not to ask
again. Look once and I will go away for good. That's it.
Run your hand underneath all the way. There, I told you,

42 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

nothing. Are you sure, yes, I can feel the bulge in the en-
velope. Rip it off the seat. Got it? Now call an usher. No,
into your pocket you fool, think about it first. There's
always time for an ushed. Think about it— $25,000, $25,000.

Henry leant back into the seat trembling. What should
he do? Slowly he looked all around him, and suddenly on
an impulse he left the theatre. He reached home panting.
He hadn't been followed! The first thing he did then was
to ring up his boss and insult him. Then he closed all the
shutters and pulled the blinds. Then he twisted the naked
light bulb on, and, breaking the seal on his $25,000 dream,
he opened the letter.

The first thing he saw was stage money, lettered "Bank
of Fantasy" in light orange and blue colours. He shuffled
through the bogus bills rapidly seeking the real $25,000.
The stage money fell through his hands twisting and turn-
ing orange and green. His eyes could hardly focus when
he saw the envelope again. He tore it open and saw the
letter: it was meant to be very amusing.
Dear Patron,

We know the weakness of human flesh and we forgive
your impetuous action. As you see, your seat was the one
chosen to help promote the picture "Fugitive" which comes
to this theatre next week. As a special prize for finding

THE RESCUERS

Through the hallway, down the stair
Into the dungeon quick as a hare
Fit the stolen key in the lock
"Quickly, Jacob, and please don't talk."

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 43

The hinges creaked on the dungeon door
A fellow stumbled on the slippery floor
Their bright eyes sought in vain for the hole
Where a brave man lay with a sickened soul.

A groan from the corner gave them a start
Encoiu-agement followed to give the man heart
An arm round each shoulder, a chuck on the chin
And then they were gone, gone mid the din.

— P. Taylor, VA.

THE EFFECTS OF FEAR

Modern man has become the slave of fear. Everywhere
he turns it is breathing down his neck. This is mainly
because each morning when the average person of our day
and age climbs out of bed, he is always capable of finding
something to be afraid of. The direct result is that he be-
comes a worrier.

He arranges his time each day in order to have one
to two hours to worry about his old age, or the possibility
of something going wrong either with his car or family.
At fifteen minute intervals, he worries about being late,
getting lost, the outcome of a test he has been put to, or
missing a plane or boat. In fact, on an average, the worrier
finds little time to enjoy life.

Supposing you are in the middle of a highway with no
gas station for ten miles and your gas is low. As a normal
human being, what are you destined to do? Naturally you
will attack your fingernails vigorously, check the gauge
fifty to one hundred times, cross your fingers and probably
slow down to thirty. A few minutes later when the car
has ceased to function, a pair of hands without any finger-
nails will slowly turn the door-handle, and a mental and
physical wreck will emerge. If you have the energy left to
walk to the station for gas, you won't be able to walk back.

Most performers think it natural to get "butterflies"
before their show. Musicians wear long hair in an attempt

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

to hide themselves when they see fit to worry. However,
public speakers and debaters who are afraid of their
audience become subjected to the worst treatment. Their
audience never fails to pick them out and place them on a
pedestal of ridicule. I suppose it is only natural, however,
to laugh at a speaker who stutters, stammers, pauses,
changes violently from white to red, and finally faints be-
fore he has said a word. Strange things indeed happen to
worriers.

Scholars find it absolutely necessary to worry about
passing "that last exam." They know for certain that there
isn't anything more useful to do until they receive their
marks. It remains unknown why these brilliant "learners"
don't realise a basic fundamental; namely, that it is im-
possible to avert or change fate, simply because fate always
gets its way.

There are many more examples of men that are
unanimously in favour of wasting away their lives. Unfor-
tunately, you may happen to fall into this category too.
However, I won't advise you to try to stop worrying be-
cause then you would worry whether you were still worry-
ing and I would worry whether you were worrying about
worrying. The only way, therefore, to prevent man from
worrying is to remove all sources of fear. As this, obviously,
is impossible, it remains only to be said that it is human
to worry.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

SPORTS

SPORTS EDITORIAL

The winter months at Trinity are more active than one
would think, with five major sports being carried on every
day of the week. As usual, every boy in the School is taking
part in at least one sport. Hockey, as in any Canadian
school, is still the major sport, although this year there
seems to be an increasing number of basketball players
and likewise swimmers. The hockey firsts again under the
excellent coaching of Mr. Humble and the captainship of
Terry Hall and vice-captain Dave Cape hold a good record,
having been runners-up in the Lawrenceville Tournament
and sharing the Prep School Group Championship with Upper
Canada. The spirit and determination on this team is
fabulous. Middleside, again with Mr. Lawson, have a 4-2
won-lost record so far with a few more games yet to play.
Co-captains Greg McKnight and John Embury have had to
lead their team through some pretty rough battles but have
done very well. Littleside, under Mr. Gordon and captained
by John Braden, now hold a 2-3 record having lost three

46 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

and won two. They are out to win the rest with improving
stamina and co-ordination.

This year's Basketball firsts are among the better
Basketball teams we have had for quite a while, but seem
to have been up against better-than-usual competition. The
team this year is coached by Mr. Heard and he along with
captain Rusty Dunbar and vice-captain Bart Tisdale have
kept their opponents moving fast throughout the entire
season. The juniors this year, also coached by Mr. Heard
and led by Ian Falkner, are likewise a bit above par and
have developed some dead-eyed sharpshooters for next
year's seniors.

The enthusiasm in the swimming pool is really tre-
mendous this year. Enough boys have turned out to make
up three complete teams: senior, junior and bantam. Mr.
Hodgetts again is seen coaching the seniors who are cap-
tained by Bill Porritt. Mr. Massey is taking the juniors
and bantams. Since the writing of this editorial, The senior
team has completed its schedule of meets undefeated, add-
ing to its triumphs the winning of the Little Big Four Cham-
pionship. Congratulations to all concerned!

Mr. Landry has again produced another good squash
team with Tom Allen as the captain.

Hugh Ellis and Ramsay Derry were voted captain and
vice-captain respectively of the gym team this year, again
imder the expert guidance of Mr. Armstrong. They have
had only one meet so far and in this they emerged victorious.

Rabbit league hockey is well underway this year being
very well organized by Mr. Brown.

LAWRENCEVILLE HOCKEY TOURNAMENT

At last — December 19. This date marked not only the
end of term but also the occasion on which the hockey team
embarked on a trip to Princeton for the ninth Annual
Lawrenceville School Invitation Hockey Tournament, this
being the third time T.C.S. has been represented. It is

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 47

indeed an honour when one considers that Trinity has been
the only Canadian school ever invited to the tournament.
On both visits preceding this most recent venture Trinity
captured the championship.

The Seymour Hotel, New York, was invaded by the
"northern visitors" arriving by plane from the so-called land
of snow, as we were soon to learn.

The following day we moved on to Princeton and took
up our abode in the Campus Club, one of the many eating
clubs along Prospect Ave. Afternoon, — and the first games
got underway at Princeton's Hobart Baker Memorial Rink
and the Lawrenceville school rink.

Trinity, dressed in borrowed helmets (regulation equip-
ment) took the ice at 4.00 p.m. with a well known Organism
in goal to meet the Choate team. The team was at first
hindered by a large number of penalties. American rulings
provide for less bodily contact than in the Canadian game.

Nevertheless, Trinity's first goal was scored with Shier
in the penalty box. Hall took the puck from his own end,
pushed it through the opposing defense and scored from
close in. Choate was quick to retaliate, their scored being
gained by Knight (of Choate, that is), assisted by Dwinell.
The period ended in a 1-1 deadlock, and both teams, in
despair for lack of new boys, scraped the ice.

Early in the second period. Shier, on defence, scored
an imassisted goal on a well placed shot from inside the
blue line. The pressure was poured on and Hyland soon pick-
ed up a rebound on a shot by Binnie to make it 3-1. At this
point the excellent penalty killing work of Cape, Stephen-
son, Shier and Binnie made a real impression upon the sup-
porters during the absence of Adam and Scott in turn from
the ice. Despite this foursome Choate managed their second
goal. Terry Hall of Trinity followed this up on a successful
shot, credit for the assist going to David Knight.

The third period marked the completion of a hat trick
for Terry Hall on a tally from Brit. Mockridge. Dave Cape
then scored from Stu Adam. The period ended with a
Choate goal by Stetson making the final score 6-3. The

48 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

evening's entertainment consisted of a banquet at the
Nassau Tavern, provided by the sponsoring committee of
the tournament.

The next morning several boys made a tour of Prince-
ton and Lawrenceville school. I will not attempt to describe
the mass amazement occasioned by the first view of
Lawrenceville's million and a half dollar field house.

That afternoon Trinity met Taft School in the semi-
final. Perhaps the most outstanding feature of this game
was the fore-checking and back-checking of Trinity which
kept Taft in their own end for most of the game. Trinity's
superior ability permitted them to change the direction
very quickly. Of particular merit was the two-way work of
Don Farnsworth who proved to be exceptionally light on his
skates. First period scoring began with a super shot by Jim
Hyland which gave the goalie no chance whatever. Ripley
of Taft fooled Thompson in the goal and once again Trinity
was in a first period deadlock.

The Hall-Hyland-Knight combination clicked once again.
This time Hyland put the puck in the net after taking a
pass from Hall. An amazing bit of teamwork followed this
as Dick Smith scored from Dave Marett. Again the same
play worked just as smoothly, but the goal was disallowed.
Continuing the drive, the next line scored on a Cape-Stephen-
son combination, the latter making the point. Hyland now
completed his hat trick with an unassisted goal. Taft com-
pleted the scoring on a shot by Hartley while Mockridge
was in the box for tripping. Trinity had overcome the
penalty jinx for misdemeanors produced six penalties for
Taft compared with three for Trinity. With a 6-3 and
5-2 victory behind their backs anticipation rose high for
the final game.

Game time 2.30 p.m. — Trinity vs. St. Paul's School,
rated as America's best in prep school hockey. The game
proved to be a tight battle, hard fought throughout. St.
Paul's were first to score capitalizing on organization plus
in a form which brought the play right in on goal. Around
the Trinity goal the opposition frequently met with dif-

ficulties in the form of Al Shier who effectively bothered
all attackers.

During the second period St. Paul's began to tire and
Trinity controlled most of the play but they were unable
to score. For the first five minutes of the period St. Paul's
had two major penalties but, of course, they were at full
strength on the ice. Captain John Pearce of St. Paul's, in
goal, saved the day for his squad on countless occasions.
The defence played close to their own goal and forced the
T.C.S. offenders to shoot from a good distance out. A good
many of the shots were high and two were seen to careen
off the goal post. Shier went to the penalty box for the
third time but came back to play all the harder.

At 8.10 of the third period Bishop counted for St. Paul's
on a Wilmerding pass. Trinity countered at 11.22 as Hall
batted a loose puck past the previously unbeatable St. Paul's
goaltender. Hyland and Knight assisted on the score. The
pressure was applied to its fullest in the fijial minutes of
play but St. Paul's maintained their stand to win by a 2-1
margin taking the championship for the second year in a
row. Congratulations of the day went to John Pearce of
St. Paul's for his outstanding work in the goal.

BIGSIDE vs. OLD BOYS

Saturday, December 3. Won 5-8

On Saturday, December 3, Bigside played host to the
Old Boys, who came to play their annual hockey game
against the team. It proved to be a very exciting afternoon
of hockey.

The first period was a seesaw battle with neither team
really controlling the puck for any length of time. How-
ever, Bigside managed to capitalize on two of their chances.
Captain Hall opened the scoring, as Hyland and Knight
combined to set him up for a close in drive which left Hardy,
the Old Boy goalie no chance at all. The second tally of
the period came off the stick of Adam, as he scored un-
assisted on a screen shot.

The second period saw Bigside add to their lead, as
David Cape took a pass from Wood and beat the Old Boy
goalie with a very nice shot. However, the opposition then
started a determined drive, as Giffen slapped in Donald's
pass for their first tally.

This upsurge continued on into the final period, as Osier
and Seagram each added a goal to tie the score at 3-3. Big-
side then caught fire, and retaliated very quickly as they
overpowered the Old Boy team for the remainder of the
period. Farnsworth put the team in front to stay as he
took a goal-mouth pass from Marett and knocked it in. Dick
Smith then closed out the scoring in the game as he inter-
cepted a pass, tore in alone on Hardy and neatly tucked
the puck into the cage, making the final score 5-3 in favour
of the School. Thompson played well in goal for Bigside
as he continually halted Old Boy drives with his fine net-
minding.

T.C.S. vs. THE ZETA PSI FRATERNITY
At T.C.S., January 12. Lost 8-3

In their first home game of the season the School lost
to the Zeta Psi Fraternity, 8-3, in a hard fought, close
checking game.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL, RECORD 51

The first period opened with a bang as Adam scored
on a rush from the face off. Wood assisted. At the ten
minute mark the Zetes tied the score at 1-1 when Wiltson
took a long shot from the blue line, Saunderson assisting.
Minutes later Mockridge kicked out a similar long shot but
Redruft got the rebound and scored. At the close of the
period Eby scored to make it 3-1.

In the second twenty minutes the Zetes opened the
scoring with two quick goals by Eby and McMurtry. Time
and again Dawson made spectacular stops in the Zete goal,
but at the 14 minute mark Marett scored on a rebound
from Farnworth and Shier. With a minute to go Graham
got a penalty for tripping. The School put on the pressure
but the Zete squad held together. This period was char-
acteristic of the whole game, hard fought and hard checked
as well as fast. The score at the end of this period was 5-2.

The final period opened with Hyland getting a penalty
for tripping. The Zetes took advantage of this as Saunder-
son scored from Beck to make the score 6-2. However,
Trinity finally scored at 9:06 Hyland from Knight. The
game got rougher and three more penalties ensued, Gum-
ming for boarding, McMurtry and Hall for roughing. With
four minutes to go Eby scored unassisted to give him a
hat-trick. In the last few seconds the Zetes scored again as
Beck poked the rubber past Mockridge who had played
a good game but was beaten by well-placed shots.

The final score was T.G.S. 3, Zetes 8.

T.C.S. vs. ALPHA DELTA PHI
At T.C.S., January 19. Lost 2-1

In a hard fought, wide open game. Trinity lost to a
team which included many T.G.S. Old Boys. The period
showed Alpha Delta was the stronger team, but mainly
due to the wonderful goal-tending of Garth Thompson, the
visitors failed to score.

The second period promised to be much the same at
first, until Johnson, a T.G.S. Old Boy, poked the puck in

52 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

during a pile-up in front of the net. Four minutes later
Anderson scored to put Alpha Delta in the lead 2-0. In the
dying minutes of the period, Binnie of T.C.S. got the first
penalty, two minutes for tripping.

In the final period Trinity showed much more spark.
In spite of Shier's penalty for tripping, the Trinity team
kept the edge, and as soon as they were back to full strength,
Stevenson scored from Farnsworth to break Alpha Delta's
shut-out. In spite of continued efforts Trinity failed to find
the mark again and the final score remained 2-1.

T.C.S. vs. S.A.C.
At Port Hope, Jamiary 26. Won 2-1

Although the team had recently experienced two losses
in exhibition games, Trinity capitalized on their experience
to defeat a strong opponent. As the game got under way
it was soon apparent that T.C.S, had a slight edge on the
play. After the first five minutes, however, play slackened
until at the twelve-minute mark, a cleaving shot from the
corner by Hall of St. Andrew's was deflected off a defence-
man's skate into the goal. This gave S.A.C. a one goal lead.
Trinity quickly retaliated, however, and four minutes later
on a brilliant passing play. Cape scored from Adam. The
team successfully withstood repeated attacks by S.A.C. while
Shier sat out with a kneeing penalty. The first period ended
in a 1-1 tie.

The second period saw Trinity dominating the play,
but no goal was scored. There was a double high-sticking
penalty given out to Hall and Loblaw late in the period.
The pace quickened in the closing moments and both goalies
managed some good saves.

There was a different story in the first few minutes
of the last period, and Trinity twice almost put themselves
in front before Marett finally scored from Adam to climax
a strong drive.

With a goal in hand, Trinity defended their position
vigorously and had several chances to score. However, St.

TRINITY COIjLEGE SCHOOL REC50RD 53

Andrew's held under our attacks and nearly tied the score
in the dying moments of the game. The final score proved
to be 2-1 in favour of Trinity.

T.C.S. vs U.C.C.
At U.C.C, February 2. Lost 3-0

A fast, smart Upper Canada team skated their way
to a decisive victory, when they defeated the Trinity squad
3-0.

The T.C.S. players were astonished at the fast ice at
the opening of the game, but soon got used to it and made
the first attack of the game which was terminated by the
fine goal tending of Bassett in the U.C.C. net. Then at the
nine minute mark Soward opened the scoring unassisted
with a hard shot from the corner. T.C.S. then rallied but
found it nearly impossible to penetrate the powerful Upper
Canada defence.

Without a rest at the end of the period the teams
changed ends and began the second stanza. U.C.C. opened
with a series of blasts at the Trinity net but the miraculous
work in goal of Thompson kept the puck from the mesh.
The first ten minutes consisted of rally after rally by each
team; then at 10.15 Upper Canada took advantage of a
T.C.S. penalty as Captain Harrison scored from Eaton and
Ross. The period ended in a flurry of shots on the U.C.C.
goal by Hall and Adam which failed to get by Bassett. At
18.02 Eric Stephenson was helped off the ice with a gash
over his eye.

After a short rest the Trinity six returned to the ice
but failed to capitalize on numerous chances as U.C.C. had
at least one man in the penalty box for nearly the whole
period. Then at 11.13 came a break when U.C.C. had two
players serving terms. But the fabulous penalty killing of
Johnson and Barber held off the goal we needed so badly.
Before the end of the period we had seven more shots on
goal but failed to score. At 19.10 Johnson and Soward
widened the margin with another tally. In spite of a total

54 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

of 15 penalties the game was fast and well played by both
teams.

T.C.S. vs. U.T.S.
At Port Hope, February 9. Won 6-1

Trinity played host to U.T.S. , and emerged the decisive
victors, winning 6-1. In the first period Hall's lone goal
gave Trinity a slight edge but during the next twenty min-
utes Bigside caught fire and Hall tallied four times assisted
by Hyland and Knight on two and unassisted on the others.
U.T.S. managed to salvage one goal when Saunderson fooled
Thompson on a close in drive. The assist was credited to
Milne.

However, the Bigside barrage was not over as Cape
and Adam scored a goal each in the final period. Cape
scored first from Adam, and Adam scored late in the period
from Wood. Final score: Trinity 6, U.T.S. 1.

T.C.S. vs. PICKERING COLLEGE
At Newmarket, February 13. Won 6-4

In the first period, both teams played a hard game and
appeared to be in all respects evenly matched. In the first
six minutes, Wood scored for Trinity. Pickering retaliated,
however, when Allen scored shortly afterwards. Hyland and
Adam took the initiative and after about 12 minutes of play
brought the score to 3-1 for Trinity. Again, at 15 minutes.
Smith scored for T.C.S. from Farnsworth. In the remaining
few minutes of the first period, Pickering partially recovered
by scoring two more goals, bringing the score to 4-3, leaving
Trinity still in the lead.

The second period was only 15 minutes in length and
both teams settled down to a hard struggle. Mockridge
received a two-minute penalty for checking at three minutes.
The only goal scored was by Stevenson of T.C.S. 11 minutes
after the start of the period. At 14.10, Hall received a
second penalty for elbowing. Thus the score at the end

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 55

of the second period put Trinity ahead with a score of 5-3.
The third period opened with Pickering scoring in the
first two minutes. At 12.50, Hall finally broke through and
scored. This was the last goal of the game, Trinity winning
with a score of 6-4. Goals by Pickering were scored by
Allen who got two, Mills, and Muntz. The game was well-
played in a sportsmanlike fashion.

T.C.S. vs. KAPPA ALPHA
At T.C.S., February 16. Tied 3-3

Against the Kappa Alpha Fraternity — Trinity played to
a 3-3 tie. The first period proved to be fast but very dis-
organized. Neither team seemed able to start a passing
attack. At eight minutes David Knight got a penalty for
tripping. Kappa Alpha put the pressure on but the defenders
succeeded in holding them at bay.

In the second period a long shot from the blue line
by Binnie scored at 58 seconds to put Trinity ahead 1-0.
Cape assisted. Kappa Alpha soon retaliated, however, as
Cumberland scored from the corner. Two minutes later,
Scott scored unassisted at 3.30 thus putting the K.A.'s ahead
2-1. Wood tied up the score shortly after, with Cape assist-
ing. With Mockridge ii off the ice for tripping, a break-
away gave Farnsworth a chance to put T.C.S. ahead 3-2.

The third period witnessed the return of the lack of
unity experienced during the first period. Wansborough
scored at 10.10 to tie the game with a score of 3-3. During
the last few minutes of the game. Trinity once more applied
pressure but were unable to score, leaving the final score
at 3-3.

BIGSIDE vs. S.A.C.
At Aurora, March 3. Won 8-3

In their return game at St. Andrew's, our Bigside team
upset the Saints in a very fast game, 8-3. While the Saints
played a hard, aggressive game, by the third period they

56 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

were outclassed by the spectacular passing and checking
of the T.C.S. players.

The first period held very little scoring, ending with
a 1-0 lead for S.A.C. accounted for by a goal by Halliday
from Loblaw.

At 3.40 in the second, T.C.S. began to roll with Hyland
scoring from Hall. With both teams fighting to break the
tie, Hyland again shot true with his second, which was
assisted by Binnie and Mockridge. When the horn sounded
to end the stanza, the scoreboard read 2-1 for Trinity.

In the third, T.C.S. again cut loose, but this time for
good as Hyland again scored from Hall at 20 seconds. This
was followed by Adam scoring on a pass from Shier and
Wood. St. Andrew's then showed some spark with Halliday
scoring unassisted. Hall then retaliated scoring unassisted
at 7.40. By 10.00, T.C.S. had scored twice again, Knight
from Hyland from Hall, and Adam from Wood and Shier.
At 13.30 S.A.C. scored again, Dobbin from Halliday, but
couldn't reach the tape in time as Hyland again scored with
Hall getting the honours, and the horn sounded to leave
an 8-3 score for Trinity.

BIGSIDE HOCKEY vs. RmLEY

At Weston, Wednesday, March 6, 1957. Won 7-5

On Wednesday, March 6, T.C.S. Bigside defeated the
Ridley Tigers 7-5, and in so doing, advanced themselves one
more game towards the Little Big Four Championship. The
game was a real battle all the way.

The first period went well for the men of Trinity, as
two of their stalwart defensemen, namely Al Shier and Tim
Kennish, each notched a goal. The brand of hockey in this
period was fast and rugged, organization being the key
factor in oiu* favour.

However, from the opening whistle of the second period
Ridley dominated the play. Time after time, their forward
lines cut through our defense; despite many good saves
in the Trinity net, Ridley was still able to amass a 4-2

TRINITY COI^LEGE SCHOOL RECXDRD 57

lead. Jewell and Hardy each tallied once while Poole notched
a further two goals. Trinity made a determined rally as
the period closed but were unable to score.

As Trinity took the ice for the last period, their strong
ekating began to pay dividends. In succession, Jim Hyland,
Eric Stephenson, Terry Hall, Bob Wood and Dick Smith
culminated a series of Trinity rushes, beating the Ridley
goalkeeper to bring the score to 7-4 in their favour. Before
the end of the period, Jewell slipped the puck past Thomp-
son to finish out the scoring.

BiosroE vs. u.o.a

At T.C.S., March 10. Lost 7-6

In a game marked by one of the most exciting third
periods seen on T.C.S. ice. Upper Canada College and Trinity
College School played off to determine who would be the
Group Champions in hockey. In any case, T.C.S. could not
lose. If they won, they would be the sole champions, and
if they lost, they would share the championship.

As the first period commenced, both teams fought hard
for leadership. Eaton for U.C.C. scored to give them the
lead and soon after Soward scored to make it 2-0 for U.C.C.
Trinity just couldn't seem to break U.C.C.'s defence which
was very effective.

The second period proved to be even more exasperating
for T.C.S. Way scored a goal for U.C.C. and was followed
by Barber and Schley who also scored to make it 5-0. Though
T.C.S. had numerous shots on goal, it seemed that there was
an invisible wall in front of Upper Canada's net.

With the opening of the third period, T.C.S. broke their
spell and scored three goals in quick succession. Wood, Hall,
and Hyland are to be thanked for the feat which brought
the score to 5-3. U.C.C. momentarily recovered when Con-
acher scored a goal. Then T.C.S. renewed their pressure
and fast plays around the U.C.C. net accounted for three
more quick goals. Cape scoring two and Knight scoring
one thus brought the score to 6-6 with about two minutes

58 TRINITY COLI^GE SCHOOL RECORD

left in the game. Excitement among the spectators was
now at fever pitch. In the last minute of play, Harrison of
U.C.C. broke through to score on a pass from Soward. With
less than 30 seconds to go, T.C.S. removed the goalkeeper,
trying for the equalizer but good work by Bassett held
them off. Thus U.C.C. and T.C.S. share a dual champion-
ship for the 1956-57 season.

MIDDLESroE HOCKEY

The Middleside Hockey team has had one of its
more successful seasons. We rallied and beat Lakefield
3-1, after losing our first game of the season to them
4-2. Captained by John Embury and Greg McKnight and
with Joe Perkins as Vice-Captain, it has developed into a
winning team. We have won five of our seven games and
our goals have been triggered mainly by Embury (10),
Carsley (9) and Hodgetts (7). Due to the able coaching of
Mr. Lawson, we have developed our team-work. This may
be attributed to many drills and much hard work by every-
one. Our defence has played splendidly in most games, with

foe who ventures toward our goal. In goal we have David
Crowe who has saved many goals and games for us. The
team this year has many younger players who are being
developed through practise with good competition. This

should become a source for future Bigside players. Prob-
ably our two best games were the U.C.C. game, in which
we won 10-4 against a much bigger and more experienced
team, and the Port Hope Juvenile game, which we lost 7-4,
but in which we had a much better opponent. It was only
through a hard-skating effort as a team that we did so well.
So far we have had a successful season with no injuries.

LITTLESroE HOCKEY

Littleside is a spirited team coached again this year by
Mr. Gordon. The team is made up of both New Boys and
members of last year's Rabbit League. There has been much
improvement since the first game, particularly on defence.
Good examples of scoring plays were seen in the Lakefield
game at T.C.S. Two rushes by a Hancock-West combina-
tion produced identical goals. The closest game so far was
the 3-2 loss to the Peterborough All-Star Bantams. These
boys were light but skated fast and played good positional
hockey.

FIRST BASKETBALL

T.O.S. vs. ZETES
Saturday, January 12. Lost 67-49

On their debut the first team showed signs of erratic
shooting and came out on the short end of a 67-49 count. The
Zetes' superior strength was noticeable when they came

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL REXX)RD 61

from behind after a first period deficit to take a commanding
lead which T.C.S. failed to overcome. The second period
proved disastrous for the locals as they could only hit for
six points while the stronger Zete squad was powering its
way to a comfortable lead. The Trinity cagers drove back
hard in the third and fourth periods but it was too late,
they had relinquished too many points in the decisive sec-
ond period. The Zete's shooting was the major factor for
their win in that they counted on 52% of their shots while
T.C.S. left much to be desired with a 31% average on both
field goal attempts and fouls. Trimble and Ash were the
high scorers in the game hitting for 21 points apiece.
Dunbar and Tisdale paced the Trinity attack with 14 points
eachu

T.C.S. vs. COBOURO HIGH SCHOOL
At Cobourg, January 16. Won 39-29

In game number two of the season the Trinity basket-
bailers took the Cobourg High School team 39-29. The School
had a decided advantage at the end of the half with a
decisive 20-6 lead.

Then Cobourg in the second half with fast player sub-
stitution tried to tire the Trinity five, but the leather stayed
with the maroon and black while they netted 19 more points
to Cobourg's 14. Procter for Trinity took the high point lead
with 13 points. Tisdale with 10 and Dunbar with 7 were
close behind.

This game showed that the team has great prospects
and should have a very successful season.

In a return game with the High School, Trinity again
won 50-42.

T.aS. vs. ALPHA DELTA PHI

January 19

On Saturday, January 19, our senior Basketball team
played a very exciting game with Alpha Delta Phi of the

62 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

University of Toronto. The Alpha Delts maintained a shght
edge over T.C.S., succeeding in keeping a few baskets ahead
throughout the game. In the last quarter, however, T.C.S.
changed to a zone defence in which they rapidly gained in
score. As a result, the score was tied at the end of the
game and overtime was played. Here the Alpha Belt's
showed their superiority, however, and won the game 43-
38. It is very hard to pick the outstanding player because
on both sides there was exceptional teamwork. Both teams,
however, seemed to be in agreement that Larry Joynt for
the A.D.'s was outstanding. All in all, this was a game of
outstanding teamwork and sportsmanship, both teams
playing marvellous ball.

T.C.S. vs. S.A.C.

Saturday, January 26. Won 75-57

Our T.C.S. seniors played a very strong game against
the Saints right from the opening toss-up. At the end of
the first quarter, the score favoured Trinity 16-10. A total
of 27 points was added to the scoreboard during the second
quarter, bringing the score to 32-21 in favour of T.C.S. at
the half. Dunbar and Tisdale sparked in the third quarter
to boost Trinity to a 18-point lead, 55-37. A display of power
in the last quarter by the Maroon and Blacks netted them
20 points to the visitors' 13. The fmal score: T.C.S.— 75,S.A.
C— 57.

Scoring was as follows: Dunbar-28, Proctor-19, Per-
rin-12, Tisdale-11, Hart-15.

T.C.S. vs. L.P.C.I. SENIORS

Friday, February 1. Lost 74-56

On what might have been called an athletic night our
senior basketball team lost to Lawrence Park in a game
which could have gone to either team right up until the
last couple of minutes.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 63

At the end of the first quarter the score stood at 14-
7 in favour of L.P.C.I. During the second quarter, our scor-
ing kept us within eight points of the Lawrence Park team,
the score being 34-26. In the third quarter, Baker and Bar-
rett of Lawrence Park took over putting Lawrence well
ahead. During the last quarter it became apparent that
we had tired our opponents considerably, for a series of skil-
ful fast plays narrowed the point margin to within six
points. The L.P.C.I. team quickly recovered, however, to
once again widen the margin. As the final horn sounded
the score was 74-56 in favour of Lawrence Park. The game
was well played and one of the best of the season.

The high scorers were: Baker (L.P.C.I.) — 17, Dunbar
(T.C.S.)— 17, Perrin (T.C.S.)— 12, Barrett (L.P.C.L)— 10.

T.C.S. vs. L.P.C.I.

At Toronto, February 15. Lost 43-38

In this return game with Lawrence Park the Trinity
Seniors lost in a close see-saw game 43-38.

At the first quarter horn L.P.C.I. led 8-5 but T.C.S.
moved fast into position and by half time managed to hold
a 18-18 tie with their opponents. Then in the third we stole
a one point lead. But the determined L.P.C.I. netters took
over in the fourth and racked up 17 points to give them
a 43-38 victory.

The high scorers were: Perrin (T.C.S.) — 13, Barrett
(L.P.C.L)— 12, Proctor (T.C.S.)— 10, Anderson (L.P.C.I.
—10.

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

At U.C.C, February 2. Lost 56-39

The Trinity six took an unexpected walloping in the
Upper Canada gym. It soon became apparent that U.C.C.
had control of the long shots but that we were outscoring
them up close. The first half was hot and fast and ended
with T.C.S. down 10 points from the U.C.C. team, 31-21.

64 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

In the third quarter, T.C.S. opened fast but was unable
to out-shoot the blue and white. The U.C.C. sharp-shooters
widened the point margin. In the fourth quarter, Trinity
outscored its opponent but found it impossible to close the
wide gap.

T.C.S. scoring was as follows: Dunbar — 11, Perrin — 11,
Tisdale — 8, Proctor — 6, Hart — 3.

T.C.S. FIRST BASKETBALL vs. 8J1.0.

At S.A.C., March 2, 1957. Lost 82-69

Ron Manning handled matters expertly as he scored
43 points to lead the S.A.C. cagers to a decisive 82-69 vic-
tory over the T.C.S. Seniors. The first quarter saw S.A.C.
score 25 points, while Trinity managed only 13. In the
second quarter, S.A.C. extended their lead to 20 points, and
at half-time, S.A.C. led 45-25. In the second half, the T.C.S.
squad revived for a short time, but could not come close
to the S.A.C. five. At the end of the game, S.A.C. led 82-
69.

High scorers for S.A.C. were Manning with 43 points
and Pickering with 16 points.

High scorers for T.C.S. were Tisdale with 16 points,
Dunbar with 14 points, and Perrin, also with 14 points.

SWIMMING

T.C.S. SENIOR, JUNIOR, AND BANTAM SWIMMINGS vs.

LAWRENCE PARK COLLEGIATE. Lost 72-102

Friday, February 1

On a Friday athletic night at T.C.S., the Lawrence Park
teams out-swam the Junior and Bantam T.C.S. teams, though
the Trinity Seniors took the laurels in their division. The
overall score, however, showed who had the better swim-
mers, with Lawrence Park swimming 102-72. The outstand-
ing swimmers of the meet were Bob Fisher of LPCI and
Bill Warner of T.C.S.

The team looks good this year and we are glad to see
Bill Porritt as captain for the '57 season.

T.C.S. SENIORS vs. UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO INTERMEDIATES

Wednesday, February 6. Won 53-26

The T.C.S. Senior swimming team brightened their
hopes for the Little Big Four meets by downing the Univer-
sity of Toronto Intermediates in the Hart House Pool by
the decisive score of 53-26. Trinity led the way from the
word "Go!" winning seven out of nine events against a
much older and more experienced team which included
several T.C.S. Old Boys.

The diving was exceptionally good, T.C.S. winning first
and second places. Newland placed second to Southern be-
cause of a couple of unfortunate "experimental" dives.

The Trinity Free-Style Relay team was greatly out-
paced by the "Blues" exhibition record-breaking relay team
but still won the event.

THE LITTLE BIG FOUR SWIMMING MEET

At Hart House, Saturday, March 16

On Saturday, the T.C.S. swim team, captained by Bill
Porritt, travelled to Toronto to take part in the Little Big
Four annual swim meet, and emerged champions. As was
expected the meet was a very closely fought fight between
T.C.S. and Ridley, who finished a close second, with U.C.C.
and St. Andrew's following. Out of the nine events Trinity
swam off with six firsts, leaving Ridley three and the
others winless.

A full gallery saw records broken and set, as Bill
Warner of T.C.S. took the 100 yard free style in a cool 1.4
second under Larry Freeman's record of 57.9. Terry Guest
of Ridley finished second in this race tying the record. The
T.C.S. four man Medley Relay team set a record of 1:57.2.
Rick Newland of T.C.S. stole a close first for the team in
diving over Ken Powell of Ridley.

swimming this year to make up full Junior and Bantam
teams. As coaching three teams would be too much for Mr.
Hodgetts, Mr. Massey has come to his assistance by coach-
ing the two younger teams. In the three meets the teams
have had so far they have lost all of them, but with the
exception of the junior Lawrence Park meet, they were all
very close matches and always depended on the final relay
to determine the victor.

Under the expert training of Mr. Massey many of these
boys have developed from dog paddlers to fairly fast crawl
or back stroke swimmers, and others have risen to the
point of being ready for next year's seniors. We wish them
the best of luck in the meets to come.

BOULDEN HOUSE RECORD

Our Christmas Entertainment this year was probably
the most successful one Boulden House has ever put on. It
has set a high standard for future years to aim at!

Many congratulations are due to all who took part in
it and to Mr. Burns, Mr. Dennys and Mrs. Moore, who
worked so hard to make it the success it was. The back-
drop, designed and painted by Mrs. McGaw and her Art
Classes, was undoubtedly one of the best we have seen.

Hockey has been one of our main occupations this
term. Every boy in the School has been playing either on
the First Squad or on one of the Snipe League Teams.

We did not have an opportunity of mentioning our
Intra-Mural Soccer League in the last number. Every boy
in the School plays in this League and it proved to be one
of the most hotly contested leagues we have had for many
years. The winner was in doubt until the very last game
and the teams were so evenly matched that no less than
thirty-two tied games were played.

Once again we are taking a play to Upper Canada Col-
lege Prep's Play Night on March 16th. We all look forward
to this evening of one act plays and are extremely grate-
ful to Upper Canada for all the trouble they take to organ-
ize this evening so extremely well.

CHRISTMAS ENTERTAINMENT

This took the form of a pantomine called "A Fantasy
With Oz", written by Mr. Burns. We shall long remember
the scene in which the Scarecrow, the Woodman, and the
Lion sing their solos, telling of the troubles they have in
life. Dorothy's excellent performance and singing was also
one of the highlights of the evening.

The enthusiasm and skill of the entire cast made this
a memorable event.

76 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

A FANTASY WITH OZ

After the traditional Christmas Supper on December
18th, the boys of Boulden House staged their fourth annual
pantomime, "A Fantasy With Oz" — based on the characters
from Baum's well-known fable — scored a memorable "hit."

The play opens with Dorothy (L. H. Murray) arriving
in Munchkinland and meeting the White Witch (A. R.
Moore). Her arrival is celebrated by a lively song and
dance which reminds her of her native Kansas. Then she
sets off on her hazardous journey to Oz,

In Scenes 11 and HI, she meets the Scarecrow (N. F. J.
Ketchimi), the Tin Woodman (C. J. Tottenham) and the
Cowardly Lion (J. A. Burton). The four encounter further
adventures with a forest of enchanted trees — including a
Family Tree (M. B. Sullivan) and a trio who uproot them-
selves for a soft-shoe dance.

Scene IV introduces The Wicked Witch of the West
(M. H. H. Bedford- Jones) and the mischievous Winkles but
they are soon vanquished and the road to Oz is open.

A magic broom provides the key to the Wizard's friend-
ship. Dorothy's helpers are rewarded and to her delighted
surprise, she discovers that the Wizard (J. M. Band) is a
fellow Kansan. Together they leave the Magic City promising
to return soon to see their friends.

Musical highlights of the evening included two trios —
the first listing the wistful hopes of the Tin Woodman, the
Scarecrow, and the Cowardly Lion; the second — Over The
Rainbow — done by Dorothy and her Two Guardians. And the
Wizard's tuneful declaration that "Everything's Up To Date
In Kansas City" was a tingling finale.

The production involved, as in past years, nearly all
the boys of Boulden House. A cast of forty-five — a stage
crew of six. The construction group under the guidance of
Mr. Burns and headed by E. W. Colby and J. C. Ketchum
built the properties — the featured prop being a Wizard
whose ears wagged — moustaches bristled — legs tapped — and
eyes (one red, one blue) lit up!

TRINITY COT.T.KGE SCHOOL RBCXDRD 77

The pantomime was arranged and directed by J. D.
Burns Musical arrangements and direction were done by Mr.
Dennys. The colourful costumes were designed and made by
Mrs. C. Moore. The splendid backdrop was painted by the
Art Classes supervised by Mrs. T. D. McGaw.

In all phases of its preparation great enthusiasm was
shown for the Boulden House Pantomime. Its success was
due to the hard work and co-operation of the cast and pro-
duction staff. Its reward was the keen appreciation of the
audience.

GIBRALTAR

Jutting out into the brilliant blue Mediterranean Sea
on the southern coast of Spain is the taU, one thousand
three hundred and fifty foot Rock of Gibraltar. Guarding
the entrance to the Mediterranean, this towering fortress
has proved more than valuable to England. Originally
Spanish, the rock was captured by the British in 1704 and
has been held since as an important stronghold. On ledges
in the steep sides the British have placed countless guns
which guard the harbour below.

The whole area of less than two square miles is divided
in half by the steep rock. In all there are three fishing vil-
lages, the most important being Gibraltar, opposite from
the Spanish town of La Linea. Between the two there is
a frontier and a line of sentries.

As there is little agriculture, most of the civilian popu-
lation of mixed Spanish, British and Maltese are fisher-
men. The Rock is populated by a species of apes found only
on Gibraltar. It is claimed that when the monkeys leave
the Rock, the British wiU have to forever vacate Gibraltar.

OUR T.C.S. CHAPEL

Every night I have the honour and pleasure of visiting
what I think is one of the most beautiful spots at T.C.S.
Our School Chapel, I am sure, will stand out in my mind
for years after the solemn day when I leave Trinity Col-
lege School.

The Chapel is panelled in limed oak of a light brown
colour. Above the magnificent altar, there are two fine
stained glass windows, in which there is not a piece of glass
the size of a doUar bill. On the altar itself, there is a silver

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 79

cross and two silver candlesticks which are lighted every
night by a senior boy.

Being in the Choir, one thing I look forward to all
week is chapel on Sunday. The procession and recession of
the Choir, clad in their robes of blue and white, is truly
sublime.

I feel that the boys of T.C.S. are very lucky to have
such a marvellous place in which to thank the Lord for

His many blessings. —A. R. Moore, Form lA

Part of a cloud of vapour

It rises; cools, falls;

Twisting, writhing,

Diving, plunging.

It lands on a leaf and rolls

Onto the ground, down to the river,

A rushing torrent of water.

Placidly sitting in a sea

With a bright sun shining down.

Being warmed, evaporated,

Rising up to form

Part of a cloud of vapour

That falls.

A raindrop making a never-ending cycle.

THE PARAPET

It's standing still upon the mountain.

Though countless ages it has been thus,

Though many legions have stormed its heights.

The rugged grandeur remains for us

To glimpse the glory of the ages

When knights and kings upon the ledges

Battled for the Parapet.

80 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

It overlooks the mighty ocean,
O'er miles of rocky, ragged, seashore,
Past leagues of golden, briny sand,
On which the Vikings land no more
To fight great battles on the beach
Against the dwellers who warred to keep

The Parapet. — D. W. Corbett, Form IIAl

CHANGE HISTORY?

Edwin L. Drake is called the Father of the Petroleum
Industry. With a title like that, wouldn't you think he dril-
led the first recorded oil well, or something of that nature?

He didn't. All he did was manage the land. He asked
a man by the name of William A. Smith to drill for oil for
him as he was employed by the Seneca Oil Company. Smith
discovered oil on August 27, 1859.

Why isn't William A. Smith called the Father of the
Petroleum Industry? He drilled the first oil well — so I think
he should be called the Father of the Petroleum Industry
because he started the boom of oil in 1859.

GAGE'S CREEK

Gage's Creek starts from a small stream in the woods,
on the Howards Farm in the Township of Hamilton. From
here it flows twelve miles till it empties into Lake Ontario.
Its course runs through pleasant fields where cattle and
sheep are grazing.

Every Sunday in the fall and spring, T.C.S. boys tramp
to Gage's Creek to explore, catch eels or crayfish, to pick
apples and climb trees. One can also ford the creek, build
dams and bridges, or just skip stones over the water.

Gage's Creek means a lot to T.C.S. It means that plea-
sant walk every Sunday which will live with us for the rest
of our lives. — S. E. Traviss, Form lA

AFRICA

Africa,

Land of many themes; —
From the white-walled city of Timis
Where the sun on the water gleams,
Through the torrid heat of the Central day
To the evening calm of Table Bay,

Your mountains and your grassy plains

Have all seen the shed of blood,
'Tis not the fault of any land —

There's been no other way.

Africa,

Nature's favoured land;
Your broad plains have been covered
With gifts come from ffis hand, —
The buck spread veldt that has been laid
By Kilima N'jaro; in its shade,

The endless stretches of the vast Sahara,

The lush vegetation of the rain forests.
All add wonder to your name,

Wonder that will ever grow.

THE WATERFALL

I lay down upon the light grey rock, worn smooth by
the weather. About fifty yards to my right was a little
waterfall. On both sides were high vertical cliffs of granite,
stained with ore to flecks of deep orange. Some feet above,
the rock curved off to smooth slopes.

The water rushed through these horizontal sides and
then cascaded to a quiet, azure pool fringed with wisps
of grass poking up from between the rocks. Suddenly, the
tail of a large fish broke the calm water, sending ripples
across the clear surface. Overhead a slight breeze gently
stirred the pine trees. A kingfisher winged its way along

82 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

the stream in search of a careless minnow. As I gazed in
awe at such a lovely sight, I thought of a waterfall not
as just falling water, but as one of Nature's most beauti-
ful creations.

Games

This is not intended to be more than a general summing
up of the games since we feel that a full account of each
game is seldom read.

In our two games with Lakefield, we seemed to show
better team work and were not really too hard-pressed al-
though in our game at the Grove the score was very close
due to our inability to find their net.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCJHOOL RECXDRD 83

We enjoyed a slight advantage in age, weight and ex-
perience over a very game U.C.C. Prep team, who neverthe-
less showed us some good hockey.

The game with St. Andrew's was one of the best of
the season with both teams evenly matched and plajdng
good hockey. We got off to a very shaky start, allowing
S.A.C. to score three quick goals at the beginning of the
first period. The team, however, settled down to work after
that and the game could very easily have ended in a tie.

I do not know which team was the more surprised in
the De La Salle game! We certainly had not anticipated a
win for us; neither, I feel, had they! The Boulden House
team undoubtedly played its best hockey of the season in
this game.

As usual, the final game of the season was with Rid-
ley at Varsity Arena. Ridley played a very steady brand of
hockey throughout the game and deserved their victory.
T.C.S. seemed to have lost a bit of the fine "edge" they
showed in their previous game and were rather ragged at
the start, although they improved as the game went on.

A letter from the Headmaster to Parents, sixty-two
years ago:

February 10th, 1895.
Dear Sir,

I regret to inform you that the School building was
burnt down last night. No one was injured in any way;
and all the boys are comfortably housed, with friends in
the town. Arrangements are being made to obtain the St,
Lawrence Hall, in Port Hope, and to carry on the work of
the School, with only a day or two's interruption.

Yours truly,

C. J. S. Bethune,

Head Master.

A thumb nail sketch of Port Hope, written in 1885.

The Town of Port Hope stands on the site of the ancient
Indian Village of Ganeraska, a place visited by French mis-
sionaries more than 260 years ago (now 322 years ago). It
has borne in succession the names of Toronto, Smith's
Creek, and Port Hope, the latter designation being more
than sixty years old, and likely to be permanent. Where
the tower of the Collegiate School now looks down on Port
Hope, the early French pioneers must have often stood and
looked out upon a waving landscape, of which the neigh-
boring pine grove still whispers a reminiscence. As of old,
Pine street still leads down to the harbour; but otherwise,
how altered the scene! For the seclusion and romantic
gloom of sylvan ravines, we have all the bustle and circum-
stance of a young city, which for beauty of situation has
scarcely an equal on the lakes. Its present population is
about 6,000, and though it cannot boast of extensive manu-
factures, as a place of residence it possesses attractions and
advantages equalled by a very few of the towns of Ontario.

IN THE BEGINNING

Once

There was the dead, cold face of a dawn sea
Flowing neither to night nor day, resting
Perpetually neutral, changeless in time,
Nursing none at her ocean-bed breasts;

Until, out of the endless dawn, swiftly
The 'fiat lux' came, clear, with the ring
Of a struck wine glass —

And the rhyme
Of sea and sun spoke faintly on the far-off crests.

—David Wevill ('46-'52)

GENIUS OF RADIO-TELEPHONY

Professor Reginald A. Fessenden (T.C.S. 1877-1884)

On the night of December 21, 1906, Professor Reginald
Aubrey Fessenden threw a switch and the 420-foot antenna
of the National Electric Signalling Co. at Brant Rock, Mass.,
began to radiate a programme of music, song and speech.

For those who collect such facts, I may remark that
the first item on the programme — and thus the first music
ever broadcast by radio-telephony — was an Edison-Bell re-
cording of Handel's Largo.

At Plymouth, Mass., 10 miles distant, the reception was
perfect — and so it is that December 21 marked the Jubilee
of The Broadcast Word. (Wireless telegraphy, pioneered

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD IQS

chiefly by Marconi, had of course started earlier, but that
is another story.)

Now, while there must always be argument as to who,
in fact, really invented the flying-machine, the incandescent
electric lamp, the telephone, and other triumphs of ingenuity,
there is not — and never has been — the least doubt that
beginnings of radio-telephony were the achievement of one
man, Reginald Aubrey Fessenden. And yet, in a modem
world which owes more than half its distinguishing "modern"
characteristics to the universality of wireless and television,
his name remains almost completely imknown.

When Fessenden died, aged only 64, in 1932, he had
been honored by none save purely professional and academic
bodies, and hardly a newspaper, save The New York Times,
accorded him more than a brief paragraph. In most of the
world's press his death was ignored.

Reginald Aubrey Fessenden was born at Milton, Ont.,
of New England parents, and educated at Trinity College
School, Port Hope, and Beckett's College in Quebec. He
first joined Edison, then left that great inventor to become
professor of electrical engineering at Purdue University,
and went on from Purdue to occupy a similar chair at the
University of Pittsburgh.

In 1900, Fessenden left Pittsburgh to become consulting
engineer to the Submarine Signals Co., and it was here that
he first had the advantage of being backed by a first-class
technical unit capable of working out practical solutions to
the problems that his experiments were constantly throw-
ing up.

For he had, in fact, succeeded in transmitting speech —
though in an appallingly distorted and inarticulate manner
— as early as 1900.

Basing his work on that of Sir Oliver Lodge, Fessen-
den — still employed by Edison — had conceived the idea that
good results in transmitting sound by "wireless" could be
obtained by the use of an antenna in conjunction with a
local circuit tuned to the same frequency as that of the

104 TRINITY COT.T.KGE SCHOOL RBCX)RD

aerial. After tests with a Wehnelt interrupter and other
devices, Fessenden settled upon an induction coil and com-
mutator as a make-and-break mechanism for his tuned cir-
cuit. With this circuit, which gave approximately 10,000
sparks per second, and using two 50-foot antennae, set a
mile apart, Fessenden managed to achieve the wireless
transmission of human speech in the autumn of 1900.

His next problem was the achievement of undistorted
speech — a much more difficult problem. It took him another
five years to solve that problem.

Work on high-frequency AC dynamos had begun as
early as 1900, and by 1902 a 1-kw. machine, delivering about
10 amps, at 100 volts, was available. With this, Fessenden
used a transformer giving about 10,000 volts, and an inter-
rupter producing approximately 20,000 sparks per second.

By 1906, Fessenden had foimd the HF dynamo that he
needed. "It was necessary that it should give a pure sine
wave, as such a form is the only one adapted to give perfect
resonance" — a declaration which stands at the very foun-
dation of radio science and technology.

At the end of 1906, Fessenden invited a select but repre-
sentative audience to witness his first radio-telephonic broad-
cast. Among those asked was the then editor of the Ameri-
can Telephone Journal.

For me, the most memorable aspect of that historic
broadcast is the comment that the editor of the American
Telephone Journal made in the succeeding number of his
magazine; a comment which showed that he, at least, did
not doubt that he had witnessed an experiment of im-
paralleled importance.

"At sea," the editor wrote, "the wireless telephone may
be used as a safety device in foggy weather. On land, it is
doubtful if it will ever supplant the local exchanges with
wires." (This remark is still largely valid.) "It is admir-
ably adapted to the transmitting of news, music, etc., as,
owing to the fact that no wires are needed, simultaneous
transmission to many subscribers can be effected as easily
as to a few."

A fact that, later, Stalin, Mussolini and Hitler were to

Verses composed by Canon C. J. S. Stuart and in-
corporated in his speech to the bride at the Ham-Paterson
wedding on October 27, 1956.

Christopher Blaikie wrote out to Vancouver
To say to his parents, "I am
Engaged to the loveliest, dearest young person
Nancy Elisabeth Ham.

She's slight, and she's sweet, tho' not so petite
And she fits in my arms like a glove.
She's all that is wonderful, cheerful and gay
In fact she's the girl that I love."

"Where did I find her?" No doubt you will ask
And I hasten to calm your suspicions,
"I found her right here in Toronto, but Oh!
Under the strangest conditions.

She was working each day right up on the hill

In that place known as old U.C.C.

For her family right down from her great Uncle Prant

Have had that connection you see.

But you've always taught me since I was a boy
E'en before I joined T.C.S.
That as a knight errant I must be prepared
To rescue a dame in distress.

So boldly I charged up the hill in pursuit
And I snatched her from imder their noses
To make her my own, a T.C.S. bride
Though all U.C.C. should oppose us.

106 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

And now we'll be married and one of my tasks
Is to teach her according to rule
That of all these establishments, called educational
T.C.S. is by far the best School.

So wish me a strong heart, a strong right arm too,
In case she's ideas of her own.
She's said she'll obey, and she'll do what I say,
But to doubts I confess I am prone.

Her language is lurid and has been since childhood

The least I expect is a 'damn'

Or a 'hell' though she knows she is now

Mrs. Paterson, not Nancy Ham.

So here's to the bride, may her life be a happy one
We offer our very best wishes.
May her husband survive her efforts to cook,
And help her in washing the dishes.

LT.-COL. G. H. McLaren ('90-'94)

George Hagarty McLaren was a member of the well-
known Hamilton family which has sent so many boys to
T.C.S. during the past seventy-five years. At T.C.S. he made
good progress in his studies and played all the usual games.
In 1895 he entered the Trinity Medical College, graduating
in 1899. For the next six years he practiced in hospitals
in Ottawa, Toronto, Hamilton, and Birmingham, England.
He became a member of the Royal College of Surgeons and
a licentiate of the Royal College of Physicians.

In 1906 he went to Egypt as Superintendent of the
Ophthalmic Hospital in Cairo. Returning to Canada in 1908
he was on the staff of Grace Hospital and the Hospital for
Sick Children until he went overseas on the outbreak of
the First World War. Serving as a Captain with the 48th
Highlanders he was mentioned in despatches for his gal-
lantry but was seriously gassed at the battle of Ypres in
April 1915 and was repatriated to Canada. He rose to be-
come Second in Command of the 96th Battalion and re-
turned to France, being on active service until the end of
the war in 1918.

For two years after the war he commanded the 48th
Highlanders and always took the deepest interest in the
welfare of the regiment.

In 1921 he retired from medical practice owing to his
war injuries. He died on January 7.

TRINITY CXDLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 113

Colonel McLaren's only son, Fred ('28-'37), a Major
with the 48th Highlanders, died of wounds in December
1944 after serving from the outbreak of war; a daughter.
Lieutenant Susanna McLaren, was killed while serving in
England.

COLONEL F. B. WILSON ('82-'87)

Colonel Wilson died in London, England, on December
11, at the age of eighty-six. He had been leading his normal
life imtil a few weeks before his death. Colonel Wilson had
kept in close touch with the School for most of his life
and he often wrote to the Headmaster and said how much
he enjoyed reading The Record. Only a few months ago
he sent magazines to the Library and in 1934 he made a
generous contribution to Trinity Camp, then a dream, a
contribution which was doubled by his wife.

At T.C.S. Colonel Wilson won prizes in his school work,
played on Littleside and Middleside Teams, and passed into
R.M.C. ninth on the list. Attached to the Artillery for a
time he then practiced Civil Engineering, surveying for the
C.P.R. near Winnipeg. Later he worked with railways in
the U.S.A. and returning to Canada he went into business
in Vancouver. In the First World War he went overseas
with the 48th Battalion, was woimded at Ypres, returned
to duty and was appointed assistant Director of Light Rail-
ways to the British First Army. He was mentioned in
despatches three times and awarded the O.B.E.

After retiring from business in the twenties, Colonel
Wilson took up residence in Oakville: he did voluntary
work for the Poppy Fund in Toronto. A few years before
the outbreak of the Second World War in 1939 he moved
to London, England, and travelled considerably, visiting
Australia, South Africa and most of Europe. He was in
England throughout the War and did most valuable work
for the Merchant Navy. After the war he continued to
reside in London and Europe but he paid almost yearly visits
to Canada.

GARY DALGLEISH ('51-»56)

Nothing has shocked the School so much in recent years
as the sudden death at the beginning of December of Gary
Dalgleish. Gary had entered McMaster University in Septem-
ber and seemed to be in the best of health and the news
numbed his many friends. Those whom the gods love die
young,' it has been said, and perhaps Gary's brave spirit was
not of this world.

He came to us as a young lad, a keen and talented ath-
lete, and so anxious to excel in all he did. He won the Magee
Cup and colours on Littleside in Football, Hockey and Gjmin.
The next year he spent in South Africa, returning to T.C.S.
in April 1953. After six weeks in the Cadet Corps he was
voted The Most Improved Cadet.'

Again he distinguished himself in games and won all
hearts by his modesty. After winning Middleside Colours in
Football and Hockey he played on First Teams in these sports
and no one who saw him in action will ever forget his superb
goal tending on T.C.S. hockey teams. In fom- years in the
nets he was beaten only three times in thirty games, a record
which will probably stand for all time. When the Headmaster
mentioned this in Hall, the whole School cheered him to the
echo. He was awarded a Distinction Cap in Hockey. A most
helpful member of the Pat Moss Club, he also belonged to the
Political Science Club and was appointed a House Officer.

History was his favourite subject and everyone admired
his perseverance in more difficult work, his quiet determina-
tion to overcome all his problems. Gary was a serious minded
lad and liked to discuss important questions and his own
future: one felt that he would like nothing better than to
help the less fortunate but he realized that he needed further
education before he could see his vocation clearly.

We shall always remember Gary Dalgleish, a rare spirit
with an unplumbed depth of soul.

His School friends were bearers at his funeral in To-
ronto, and the School Hymn was sung. That evening in
Chapel The Headmaster spoke to the School about him.

EDITORIAL

T.C.S.'s FIRST FEDERAL CABINET MINISTER

The result of the Federal election on June 10 surprised
everyone and one of the exciting outcomes for T.C.S, was
the fact that one of our younger and most eminent Old Boys,
a former President of the Old Boys' Association, has been
appointed the Minister of Transport in Mr. Diefenbaker's
Cabinet.

2 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

George H. Hees ('22-'27) has taken a leading place in
the Progressive Conservative Party almost since his election
for Toronto Broadview riding in 1950. He is a former
President of the Progressive Conservative Party and
travelled throughout the Dominion speaking to many
thousands of his fellow citizens; in the recent campaign he
concentrated his efforts during the two weeks before June 10
in the Maritimes and the sweep of P.C.'s in those Provinices
testifies to the effectiveness of his campaigning.

George H^es spent five years at T.C.S. and took a full
part in the life of the School, giving evidence of becoming
a first-rate athlete. He left before completing his Honour
Matriculation as he had qualified for admission to R.M.C.
After a most successful career there he spent two years at
the University of Toronto and then went to Emmanuel
College, Cambridge, for a year. He became well known there
for his boxing prowess, winning the Intercollegiate Heavy-
weight. He entered business in Toronto and played football
for the Argonauts. He enlisted at the outbreak of war and
served for six years in the Infantry, rising to the rank of
Major. He was wounded in 1944. In May, 1950, he won
the Broadview by-election and has been a Member of Par-
liament since then.

As far as we can see from our records, no other T.C.S.
Old Boy has been a Federal Cabinet Minister. Mr. L. K.
Jones (1865-67) was Deputy Minister of Railways and
Canals for many years and a few Old Boys have been Mem-
bers of the House of Commons and Members of the Senate,
but the Federal political field has not been tilled and sown
by Old Boys as it might have been.

All members of the School, whatever their political
affiliations, join in paying tribute to the Honourable George
H. Hees, M.P., Minister of Transport.

The first issue of The Record was printed in April
1898.

We are therefore marking the sixtieth anniversary
of this widely known School magazine: we believe we have
published, in sixty years, more issues than any other school
magazine and we hope that the quality has been even
better than the quantity.

The next issue will be a Special Anniversary Number
to celebrate our Diamond Jubilee.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

A POSITIVE LENT

On Sunday, March 10, Mr. Heard gave the address at our evening
Chapel service. He began by repeating a popular question, "What
are you giving up for Lent?" No one, he contimiod, ever seems to
reply, "I will do something." Yet we observe Lent because Jesus,
always a positive man, spent this period resisting the Devil's power-
ful temptations. In the most strong-minded manner possible, He
prepared Himself for the final, most demanding test — ^^the Crucifixion.
His forty days in the wilderness are a prime example of doing
rather than of giving up, and we can follow His example in many
ways. First of all, we can examine ourselves closely to determine
to what extent our customary thoughts, actions, and abstinences
arc beneficial to others. He can eliminate our use of "flavoured"
words, particularly those which arouse unpleasant racial prejudices.
Secondly, we can read the biography of someone who has enriched
the world, rather than absorb tasteless literatiu'e which only occupies
space needlessly in our minds. Another suggestion is to have a
private talk with someone who is constantly laughed at or in trouble,
to help him understand his mistakes. We should al.so read a chapter
of the Bible daily to discover the true nature of Christ. Finally,
Mr. Heard concluded, if we are confronted with any serious problem.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 5

we should discuss it with God, both during the evening Chapel services
and privately, in our own time. Thus Lent can and should be a
period of positive doing, not of negative giving up.

LIFE'S BUSINESS

On March 17, Canon Lawrence, speaking to us in Chapel, took
as his text Joshua, XXIV verse 15 — "Choose you this day whom ye
will serve."

In the first place our Chaplain said that we are continually the
victims of two worlds already present. But only one can be accepted.
In trying to choose life's business one is often tempted to take the
easy way out. But the easy way is sometimes shameful. We should
think before we act even if our decisions may be costly to ourselves.

The degree of satisfaction which accompanies a decision made
at great cost, is indescribable. Conversely, it becomes sooner or
later impossible to content oneself with a choice (in any great
matter) that is plainly unworthy. Our conscience will always in-
dicate whether the path we have taken is favourable or not.

Jesus has said that it is better to be rid of hand or foot or
eye if they hinder your progress towards perfection. These types
of decisions are not made completely on one's own strength but
with the grace of Jesus, who might have gained the "kingdoms of
the world and the glory of them" but rather undertook the path
which led to his death on the cross.

THE SHEPHERD

On March 24, the Rev. A. M. Laverty of Queens University
spoke at evening Chapel.

Padre Laverty took his text from John 10; 1-11, the parable
of the good shepherd. In our youth, we often said, "Jesus Christ,
meek and mild, have pity on a little child." Although Jesus was
gentle and mild, he had strength and courage in every sense, for,
as He said, "I am the good shepherd." Different to what we might
imagine, a shepherd was, at that time, a strong man who cared for
sheep in unfenced pasture land, and who had to work even through
the night so that the sheep might not stray. In those days the sheep
were led, not driven as they ai'e today.

Jesus said, "I am the door of the sheep." The parable which He
related as an illustration told of a shepherd leading his sheep to
the fold at sundown through a narrow opening. Jesus, the good
shepherd, explained, "I am the door, by me if any man enter in, he
shall be saved."

Jesus shows us the character of the shepherd in another parable,
that of a shepherd who rejoiced more upon finding one lost sheep
than for all the others that did not stray. The lost sheep had
often to be rescued from a precarious position on the side of a cliff.
Thus it is that when Christ said to the crowd, "I am the good
shepherd," no one laughed or smiled; they believed.

Q TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

WORK

On March 31, the Rev. Canon F. A. M, Smith ('16-'20) spoke
to the School on the subject of work. Canon Smith pointed out
that he was quite capable of talking of work, in physical as well
as other senses, because of the jobs he had when he was young. A
minister of course also has a great deal of work, despite modern
conceptions to the contrary.

One modern idea incorporates the philosophy that work is evil —
hence one should work hard in this life in order to have rest in a
later life. This is basically an incorrect assumption because one is
working continually for God.

Work used to be connected to religion, but in the world of
today, the two have become somewhat separated. Canon Smith
stated that we need to put God back into our work now, as we
take our places in the fields of industry and commerce. Often people,
lacking a true sense of values, incorrectly place work above all
other essentials.

In one's life work, it is necessary to learn to respect those who
work under you. Numerous employers tend to treat men as machines
without feeling, thus failing, unfortunately, to foster friendships.

Taking two words, stewardship and sacrifice. Canon Smith showed
that we must work for God in His name and also must sacrifice
ourselves for others on this earth.

In closing. Canon Smith said we should choose our vocation on
the basis of its contribution to society rather than its monetary
rewards.

CONFIRMATION SERVICE

On Saturday, April 6, the Right Reverend G. B. Snell, Suffragan
Bishop of Toronto, addressed the School at the annual Confirmation
Service. In his address, Bishop Snell emphasized the grave im-
portance of the responsibilities which the candidates had just accepted
before the eyes of God. The well-known story of Chi-ist's trip to
Jerusalem at the age of twelve brings out the difficulties which arise
in keeping these promises. On the return trip, when Jesus had re-
mained in the temple, to take upon Himself the responsibilities of
the Son of God, Mary feared that He had been lost on the way.
There is, after Confirmation, a danger of everyone being thus lost
on the way for various reasons. First of all, the realization will soon
come that the Christian life is very difficult to follow; to try again
and again after failure will not be easy. Again, the gi^eat experience
of Confirmation should be a peak of achievement from which descent
is painful; yet one must come down and work for Jesus. Finally,
many people who feel they have lost Jesus and must soon rejoin him.
simply put off this renewal indefinitely. But when Chi'ist is needed,
He must always be sought immediately. By realizing and avoiding
these dangers, Bishop Snell concluded, one can follow the road with
Christ to the end of the journey.

TRINITY COOjEOE SCHOOL RECORD 7

PRAYER

On Sunday, April 28, Canon Cecil Stuart ('97-'01) spoke to the
School about prayer. It was, however, a specific type of prayer —
prayer in which the sinner asks God's help in bringing him "out of
the miry clay."

Dr. Stuart then told us of a visit he had paid to a friend by
car. Having missed the correct turn, he followed the next street. It
seemed at first an attractive avenue, but it soon proved otherwise.
Dr. Stuart soon found himself stuck in deep mud. Walking to his
friend's house, he there phoned a tow truck which soon came to
the rescue.

The significance of the story is evident. It is advisable to heed
the sensible advice to avoid the wrong but pleasant looking avenues
and to take the correct turns.

On a long motor trip also, as on the road of life, one needs re-
fuelling at a gas station. The filling station in life is the church
and gasoline can be compared to the grace of God. It is by prayer
that we may seek God's guidance.

Easter brings us a two-fold message. Firstly, the younger genera-
tion must look ahead in this Ufe, following the best of ideals, while
to older people Easter is a promise of a life to come. The second
and universal message is that everybody always has the opportunity
to turn to God whenever discord arises.

THE FAMILY OF CHRIST

On May 5, Mr. John Barton ('43-'47) chose as his text a passage
from the second chapter of the Epistle of St. Paul to the Phillipians.
Developing his theme "at the name of Jesus every knee shall bow",
Mr. Barton pointed out that the major world problems stem fi'om
man's basic inability to live in peace and harmony with his neigh-
bours. He stated that to-day we seek peace through ideals to which
we give only intellectual assent. St. Paul's idea was of a world
existing as a family under one father.

A congregation of Christ, he reasoned, would put to an end
forever such problems as racial discrimination, because to be a good
Christian one must be able to rise above such base prejudices.

He went on to say that the first problem to be overcome in
the evolution of a truly Christian society is getting people to live
as Christians. To do this, he pointed out, some people are going to
have to live like Christ and these would influence others to live
in the same manner. If St. Paul's dream is to be fulfilled a certain
number of us will have to set the example for others.

Mr. Barton said that he realized that many of us had doubts
about God's call to the ministry. He told us that the people who
are called are many and varied. Mr. Barton gave us three illustrations
of how three men (himself included) had been called to take up
God's teachings when their backgrounds and dispositions had made
them, they thought, unlikely candidates. Mr. Barton concluded his
talk by asking the boys to think seriously about the ministry and
its needs.

8 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

RESPONSIBILITY

The Rev. F. H. Cosgrave spoke to the School on May 12, taking
as his topic, responsibility. Dr. Cosgrave pointed out that we, as
human beings, are responsible for our own thoughts, words, and
deeds, because of our possession of reasoning power and the ability
to distinguish between right and wrong. Another responsibility in-
volves our contribution as citizens of a democracy, which entitles
us to a voice in our own government. Whereas people under a despot
are deprived of the privilege of freely speaking their opinions. We,
collectively speaking, are allowed to choose between different courses
of action. Thus it should be considered a disgrace for citizens in a
democracy to fail to show an interest in public affairs, and in the
happenings of importance on the international scene.

A further way in which we, as Christians, are responsible for
our actions is in our attitude to our fellow men. One must love
his neighbour, a neighbour in this sense of the word meaning any-
one, anywhere, who is suffering. Today we can indulge in far greater
visions than those of our ancestors. It is unrealistic to retreat from
difficult social problems. We must face them as Christians, and bring
peace to the world, if we are not to fail those who have gone before,
and those who are still to come.

Thus Dr. Cosgrave showed the significance of great responsibility
in the struggle for fellowship and peace.

FRIENDSHIP

The Headmaster spoke in Chapel on Sunday, May 19, and told
the Sixth Form that he was just going to give them some thoughts
which had been in his mind as it was the last time he would ever
be able to speak to them as a group in the T.C.S. Chapel.

He first mentioned Time and remarked that school boys think
of it, if at all, in small quantities, class periods, the length of a
game, the time taken for a sermon, etc.; our lives seem to stretch
endlessly before us when we are young and it is certainly right not
to worry or be apprehensive about the future, but we should make
the most of the moments we have.

Some will be saying that this term has disappeared as quickly
as early morning dew and that it only seems yesterday that you first
came to Boulden House. "Slow goes the hour, how passing quick
the time." That is probably true of younger people but when we
become older the more apt quotation is "For at my back I always
hear, Time's winged chariot hovering near."

The years can disappear all too quickly and that is something
you should have in mind. "It's later than you think" might be a
good motto for you to remember, or "Opportunity knocks only once."
There are certainly many people in the world who regret not having
made more use of their younger years. You remember the Parable
of the Talents — the steward who used his to best advantage was
most rewarded. I suggest that you live life to the full and live it

well and never throw away hours or opportunities. The first forty
years of man's life are probably the best and disappear quickly.

Closely related to this thought is another suggestion: when you
meet groups of grown up people in future yeai's you will soon notice
that the man who does more than others is always asked to take
on added responsibilities and somehow he becomes more and more
capable, able to carry six loads when others can carry only one.
As he expands and expends himself he is given more strength. "Unto
wliom that hath is given." St. James makes a statement which has
always appealed to me to be excellent advice: "Be ye doers and
not hearers only." The doer leai'ns by doing, he adds to his stature,
and he gains the confidence and admiration of his fellow men. St.
James mentioned that we should be "doers of the word" and the
word is found in this Bible which you have heard daily throughout
the school year but to which you have probably never given sufficient
thought or study.

And one last comment: it has been said that the most revolutionary
of all Chi'ist's teaching was his declaration that all men were brothers,
all made in the image of God. That certainly must have startled
the world of Christ's time as it still startles the world when we
really think about it, and yet it probably stands at the centre of
Christian belief. Sometimes I think the world today might be
likened to a boxer who has suffered three heavy blows and is dizzy
and "punch-drunk" from them: the first two were the World Wars
and the third was the realization of the atom and hydrogen bomb.
The boxer is badly in need of his seconds, the organizations such as
the United Nations, N.A.T.O. etc. and they keep him from being
knocked out. But another bout, a few more blows might destroy
hmi. Under such compulsion the world begins to remember that
friendship is worth having, that those we know we usually like and
that it is wise to try to understand and like our brother men. Most
of our leaders are trying to keep an uneasy peace by intellectual
processes, thinking up new moves, inventing new devices, but they
forget the limitless power of comradeship and friendship, the warm
glow which radiates between those who know and really like each
other. It is more powerful than any rules or regulations or treaties
or ideologies. "One commandment I leave with you," said Christ,
"that ye love one another."

Cardinal Newman, the great intellectual and Church leader of
the last century, in his "Idea of a University," says this: "When
you can quarry the granite rock with a razor or moor the vessel
with a silken thread, then that keen and delicate instrument, the
human mind and human knowledge, will be able to contend with
those giants, the passion and the pride of man."

Moi-e than intellect is required and that more is friendship, under-
standing, even love between peoples, and a deep concern for the wel-
fare of all peoples everywhere.

Remember that Christ lived only thirty years, and that all his
earthly teaching was completed in two years; use your time and
opportunities and don't abuse or lose them. Grow in strength by
doing and deepen the understanding and friendship between people,
knowing as you do the value of it in a community such as this. "Be
ye doei's of the word and not hearers only."

GROWTH

The Reverend J. H. Craig, rector of Grace Church, Toronto, ad-
dressed the School on Sunday, May 26. He told us of a trip he made
through California, where he found the giant redwood trees. These
forest nionarchs, continued Canon Craig, sometimes grow to an in-
credible height of four hundred feet, and attain an age of four
thousand years, the oldest living things on the Earth. The redwood
tale is like a parable, and we can benefit by its example. We should
be content with small beginnings, like the redwood which starts from
a tiny seed, for although the modern trend is towards big enterprises,
so many really significant, great things, good and bad, have had
almost insignificant beginnings. Like the redwood we should stand
straight and grow tall, not only physically, but mentally, morally,
and spiritually as well, to form the kind of men the world needs
today. Finally, we should outlive any hindrance and never stop grow-
ing. The test of a man is not what he is, but what he is becoming;
God wants us to be the best that we can be, and to continue with
visions of a better life. Thus, like the redwood. Canon Craig con-
cluded, we must always live climbing towards the peak of our com-
plete development.

THE MEMORIAL SERVICE, JUNE 2

On June 2, at the annual Memorial Service, we had as guest
speaker the Honourable J. W. Foote, V.C., LL.D., D.D., Minister of
Reform Institutions for the Province of Ontario.

At this special service we remember the fourteen hundred Old
Boys who fought in the Boer War and in the two World Wars. But
this service should not be a repetitive funeral service. Major Foote
said. We should rather look to the future and our responsibilities,
taking as an example those men who gave their very lives in defense
of what they believed in. We, as the students of today, will be the
leadeis of tomorrow. Tomorrow is not so very far off and nothing
will keep us from the many responsibilities that await us.

In either a state of peace or in a state of war we must play our
parts. In the past several decades of T.C.S. boys, many became
soldiers in defense of their country. In this service we think of the
many who made the supreme sacrifice.

Major Foote went on to say that we must remember that
civilizations are not immortal. They die as we die, but they can be
prolonged by courageous men giving them life. Thei'e are seeds of
destruction still in our world of today, and our only real defense
against them is a people of strong will and determination. Everyone
can help in some way and it is certainly necessary that we do so
if we wish to maintain a free democratic country. By doing our
part we may more easily keep the happiness and freedom which we
enjoy today.

THE CHOIR

The Choir, which commenced to function in September of 1956
with seventy-five per cent new personnel, gave a most satisfactory
account of itself throughout the year. The purpose of this Choral
Group is chiefly to lead the singing in the Chapel Services and to
prepare special music for the various festivals, such as the Carol
Service, Choral Communion, the Old Boys' Service in May, the
Memorial Service, an informal term-end concert, and Speech Day.

A Te Deum (Stanford) undertaken in the Lent Term was very
successfully rendered on three occasions. This was quite a major
effort for boys of this age. On one occasion Mr. Prower and Saunders
accompanied the music on tnmipets.

The Choir Boys are really to be commended for their devotion,
enthusiasm and the high standard of the work. Head Choir Boy,
Terry Hall, was a most efficient and co-operative assistant.

We should give the boys leaving our grateful thanks for their
help and wish them a very happy and successful future. — E.C,

THE RECORD AND THE T.C.S. NEWS

It is proposed that The Record should revert to its
pre-1933 policy of publishing three numbers a year instead
of the present five issues. During the past School year it
has been mailed free to all Old Boys for whom we have
addresses and also to parents of present boys, a mailing
list of some 2,500 names. This decision was adopted at
the annual meeting of the O.B.A. in May, 1956.

TRINITY CODU3GE SCHOOL RECORD 13

At the annual meeting last May it was recommended
that the Old Boys' Bulletin, begun four years ago, be re-
issued and named The T.C.S. News. After much discussion
it was decided that there should be three numbers a year
of the Old Boys' Bulletin and that it should be free to
all Old Boys on our list and parents of boys who have
shown interest in the School by subscribing to the Fund.

The Record should be published primarily for the boys
in the School and their parents and should contain news of
interest to them as well as being a record of events for
future years. It would be included in the fee which is paid
for boys, and others could subscribe at a nominal sub-
scription.

T.C.S. is the only School which has published a maga-
zine of the size of The Record six times a year (1933-1950),
or, indeed, five times a year (1950-1957), and the startling
increase in costs when it is mailed free to 2,500 subscribers
means there is a pretty heavy drain on School finances.

"The T.C.S. News" will provide Old Boys with accounts
of School happenings of interest to them, but in briefer
form, and the Old Boys' Notes will be continued and prob-
ably expanded.

The dates of publication would be December, April and
August for The Record, and October, February and June
for The T.C.S. News.

Comments on these proposals would be welcome, and
should be addressed to J. M. Kerr, T.C.S., Port Hope.

CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE PRIZE FUND

Over fifty Old Boys and Parents contributed an amount
of eleven hundred dollars to the Prize Fund this year. The
Fund provided the academic prizes, the athletic awards,
and special trophies given during term to the members of
Championship teams.

The boys are deeply grateful to the generous donors.

14 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

SALK VACCINE

During term the whole School was inoculated with
Salk vaccine as protection against polio. We are, indeed,
indebted to the Department of Health of the Province for
making this vaccine available to us at no cost and to the
Hon. J. W. Foote, V.C, for his help. Mrs. Scott, Mrs.
Christie and Mrs. Wilson, all Registered Nurses, gave expert
assistance, while Dr. McDerment, the School Physician,
nobly kept jabbing arms for many long hours. The first
inoculation came in May, the second in June and the third
will be given next term.

The Choir has received much praise for its singing,
particularly during the last half of the year. They became
one of the best balanced choral groups we have had, the
basses and tenors were particularly good, and the trebles
and altos made much improvement. It was a pity that the
C.B.C. found it impossible to record one of the services but
they may do so next year.

A Choir tie has been designed and should be available
next term.

SCHOLARSHIPS

The School gives is most sincere congratulations to
C. P. R. L. Slater ('48-'51), C. M. Taylor ('46-'49), Robin
Jackson ('47-'53), Lawren Harris ('26-'29), H. M. Scott
('51-'55), Hugh MacLennan ('42-'44), Ken Marshall ('45-
'51), Peter Williamson ('42-'48), on the very high awards
they have won at their universities recently. T.C.S. boys
have now won 168 University Scholarships (not counting
Fellowships or Prizes) in twenty-three years, a most praise-
worthy and exceptional achievement especially when one
considers that the average number of T.C.S. boys entering
Universities annually over that period has not been more
than thirty.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 15

ENROLMENT

In March last all expected vacancies were filled by
boys who did well on the entrance examinations. Since
then well over a hundred enquiries and applications have
been received, and there is now a long waiting list.

It would help to avoid disappointment in the future
if Old Boys would advise parents to put their son's name
down in January or February if they desire him to enter
the following September.

Boys are entered now until 1969, over fifty of them.

Trinity Camp will be run this year from August 5th-
17th. Twelve boys are coming, aU about twelve years of
age, and Mr. Ang^s Scott will be in charge, assisted by
several senior boys.

The Diocesan Choir School will be occupying the Senior
School buildings again for the last two weeks in August.
About a hundred choir boys are expected and Dr. Healy
Willan, with Mr. John Bradley, will be directing the school.

It was such a pleasure to see and hear the Rev. F. H.
Cosgrave again. He preached in Chapel on the morning
after Inspection Day and there were many visitors in the
congregation. This year marks the fiftieth anniversary of
Dr. Cosgrave's first visit to T.C.S. to speak to the boys.
Few men, if any, have made a deeper impression on many
generations of school boys and University students, not to
mention thousands of parishioners and hundreds of clergy.

Our heartfelt admiration and affection flows out to
Dr. Cosgrave.

Most of the Upper School candidates left on June 20th
after the Physics paper; over sixty VI and V Form boys

16 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

remained after Speech Day and they mingled tennis and
bowhng at the Lodge with studying. The VI Form also had
some meetings with the Headmaster to discuss matters of
importance to them and the School. After June 20th only
a few boys were at the School and these dwindled to English
and Hamilton who wrote Greek on June 28th and Young
and Day who were just staying at a pleasant country estate.
Now the buildings are quiet (except for the growling of
an enormous power shovel next to Mr. Scott's rooms) and
only memories haunt the halls.

UNIVERSITY LIFE

During the winter term the School had the privilege
of hearing the Chaplain of Queen's University, Padre
Laverty, give us a clear picture of University life. He showed
us first a film which pictured the Campus, the Chapel, the
Library and all the important buildings associated with the
University. The film explained and enhanced aspects of the
system there, and generally gave an encouraging picture.
Mr. Laverty also assured us that our years at University
would not be easy as far as work went, and that study was
a prime concern. He dwelt on the fact that there would be
many times when the freedom of the moment would tend
to carry us away and we would feel like "whooping it up"
as it were on weekends, or having a grand time every eve-
ning. Although there would be no immediate consequences
of this procedure, the result at the end of the year would
perhaps be drastic. He emphasized this point mainly because
the complete freedom at University as opposed to the more
scheduled system of a high school, is bound to tend to lessen
many students' efforts. The attitude we must take, there-
fore, on entering University is to realize the full significance
and importance of the goal we have set for ourselves.

We are all grateful to the Rev. Mr. Laverty for his film
and advice and that we are certain the years ahead at
University appear to many in far better focus as a result
of his visit.

THE SCHOOL FAIR

The School Fair this year was as much a success as
it was hoped it would be. All Saturday afternoon, various
members of the different tables (the School was divided
into fund-raising teams by their dining hall seating) con-
structed their booths, painted their signs, and arranged the
various apparatus. There was everything from underwater
diving and shots on Bigside goalie, the famous "organ," to
bingo, dice, and other gambling games. There was a raffle
for a giant angel cake kindly donated by Mrs. Clark, and
then again one for four wheels and a board, namely Bun
Austin and Company's Ford. The Adam Saunders orchestra
contributed lively music almost continually throughout the
three hours that the fair ran.

Everybody who was anybody came to enjoy themselves.
Master after master gave in to that horrible monster called
Greed (or perhaps it was Charity), and with their eyes
riveted on the prize, which was usually double your money
or twenty-five cents, awkwardly attempted those games of
skill and fell victim to the cause. Everybody played, every-
body lost, and everybody enjoyed themselves. Even Mr.
Richards, who at one point had profited to the tune of
twenty-one dollars, eventually lost all to the Pat Moss Club.

Another one of the more practical booths was the soft
drink stand which also provided chocolate cake. It was a
welcome sight to many of those throaty types who had been
yelling out the advantages of their particular booths. The
average group intake was between twelve and fifteen dollars,
with the most successful breaking the thirty dollar mark.

The grand total reached about two hundred and fifty
dollars — pretty good work for one night.

It was great fun for everyone concerned and was very
worthwhile for such a cause as the Pat Moss camp. We
hope it will continue as an annual event and are looking
forward to a similar success next year.

The entertainment committee, McCullagh and Willows
in particular, are to be congratulated upon their fine job of
organizing and supervising the fair.

THE SERVICES

On Friday, March 22, Lieutenant Smallwood of the
R.C.N, spoke to the School, pointing out the benefits of
training in the services. Lieutenant Smallwood gave details
to the effect that those who desire a career in one of the
three services may join when eighteen years of age after
completing the high school requirements and continue
schooling at Canadian Service College — Royal Roads, C.M.R.,
or R.M.C. He spoke briefly on the University Training Plan.
He stressed the idea that all boys should stay in school as
long as practically possible. Lieutenant Smallwood also
showed us pictures of life aboard the destroyer St. Laurent.
These were accompanied by a running commentary. Two
films completed the evening: one on R.M.C, the other a
documentary of a trip from Halifax through the Northwest
Passage and down to Esquimalt aboard the "Labrador."

BIG GAME HUNTING

On Saturday, April 27, Mr. David J. Roche, Vice-Presi-
dent of O'Keefe's Brewing Company, came to the School and
showed us some very fine movies depicting "big game" hunt-
ing in Africa.

Before he showed the films, Mr, Roche explained that
he had wanted to go to Africa to see and shoot the big game,
(both with a rifle and a camera), for as long as he could
remember. When he did get the opportunity a short while
ago, he was fortunate to be accompanied by one of the
most skilful and noted hunters in Africa, and through this
man's knowledge received the opportunities for taking the
excellent movies which he filmed.

During the movies, the viewers started and gaped at
the fascinating picture of the jungle animals leaping and
cavorting in their natural habitat. One particularly amazing
sequence showed an ultra-close-up of a lioness and her cubs,
moving unawares before the camera.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 19

The boys wish to thank Mr. Roche for a very interesting
and profitable evening, and for the trouble he went to
to prepare it. It will not soon be forgotten.

SPECIAL DINNERS

On Friday, May 24, the annual Hockey Dinner was
held in Osier Hall. Present were all the boys who had played
on Bigside teams during the winter term, and the captains
and vice-captains of all School teams. After the dinner,
trophies were awarded to those members of the Little Big
Four Champion Swimming and Hockey teams, who had
received their colours. This was followed by the presenta-
tion of appreciative gifts to many of the coaches by their
respective teams in recognition of the work done in the
winter term. The dinner was adjourned following a throaty
rendition of "Roll the Score Up" and the National Anthem.

The following week, on Friday, May 31, a dinner was
held for all those boys who had taken a keen interest in
extra-curricular activities throughout the year. A most
entertaining "sing-song" was held as an aftermath, during
which the Headmaster sang "Vive La Compagnie!" with
great gusto, and Mr. Lewis soloed in the title role of "O
Shenandoah." The gathering then turned to a discussion
on the new plans for the School magazine, "The Record,"
and many valuable pearls of suggestion were hatched in
the course of the evening. Following the singing of the
National Anthem, the dinner was adjourned.

Appreciation is felt and expressed by all those who
attended these special dinners to Mrs. Clark and all of her
staff for the wonderful meals they prepared and served
"above and beyond the call of duty."

A NEW SCHOOL CAR

In June the Headmaster was instructed to leave his
car at a garage in Toronto and pick up another. To his
amazement and embarrassment the car waiting for him

20 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

turned out to be a completely new looking Cadillac, 1953
Fleetwood model, driven only thirteen thousand miles. Over
twenty Governors, Parents and Old Boys made this gift
possible and the School and the driver are tremendously
indebted to them.

During the last School year the Buick made some
seventy trips to Toronto, conveying the Headmaster to
School and University meetings, and altogether, in four
years, it had run over seventy thousand miles. This
gorgeous addition to the School's motorized machines casts
an aura of glamour and prosperity which we hope will not
be misinterpreted!

AWARD OF MERIT

Four years ago there was instituted an "Award of
Merit", an honour which could be won by a Senior boy
who by character and ability had made the School a better
place by his presence, but who had missed out on the top
prizes.

This year the award goes to Colin H. H. McNairn who
in his two years at T.C.S. has won a very high regard.

BICKLE HOUSE

During Term, the building committee of the Governing
Body, Major Strachan Ince, Mr. H. L. Hall and the Head-
master, was seen on numerous occasions examining build-
ings and property. In June it became known that Bickle
House was going to be constructed this summer immediately
to the east of Brent House. The funds for the construction
have been given by Mr. Ed. Bickle, whose son, T. H. Bickle
('28-'32) was tragically drowned as a young man.

Bickle House will provide accommodation for thirty-six
boys, and have an apartment for a married master and
rooms for a single master. At the same time the very small
masters' apartments on the two lower floors of Brent House
will be enlarged.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 21

The absolute capacity of the Senior School is 205 boys,
twenty more than we have had, but the sixteen boys who
have been in James' House and the Hospital will be housed
in the main buildings. There would be no room in Hall or
classrooms for more boys. Bill Greer ('37-'43) is the archi-
tect for Bickle House and the excavation work began on
Monday, June 24th. Plans call for the completion of the
building by Saturday, September 7th. Term begins on Sep-
tember 10th.

With the completion of this House the School should be
able to operate more economically and for the first time will
be able to offer comfortable and convenient apartments to
married masters. Mr. and Mrs. Bickle have enabled us to
add another milestone in the progress of T.C.S.

NEW BOYS AND ENTRANCE EXAMINATIONS,
SCHOLARSHIPS AND BURSARIES

Last March over eighty boys wrote the examinations
for entrance to the Senior School: there were fifty fore-
seeable vacancies to be filled. The candidates came from
all parts of Canada, and from the United States, Mexico,
South America, England, France and South Africa.

Scholarship candidates wrote a special test in addition
to the entrance examinations.

These tests, embodying achievement examinations in
English and Mathematics, together with tests of academic
promise and learning capacity, are fairly searching and
seem to give a clear picture of the standard of work a
candidate may accomplish.

Other factors are taken into account, but, as the Head-
master told the School last spring, boys at T.C.S. must
realize that a high standard of attainment is expected of
them. The Independent Schools should always give the lead
in stressing excellence in work and character development.

Scholarships are awarded on the basis of the candidate's
school record, the results of the entrance examinations,

22 TRINITY COL-LEGE SCHOOL RECORD

letters of reference, and, where possible, a personal inter-
view.

The amounts set for Scholarships and Bursaries are
determined by the above considerations, the financial ability
of the parents to meet the fees, and the sums available.
During the past year Scholarships to the value of twelve
thousand dollars have been held by boys and Bursaries to
the value of ten thousand dollars.

REMEDIAL READING

The special remedial reading department has been
functioning extremely well since it was instituted last
autumn. Dr. Katharine Spencer is in charge and has given
almost invaluable assistance to many boys. Some twenty
Senior School boys and five Boulden House boys have re-
ported regularly and the improvement in their reading has
been marked, both in speed and understanding.

Within the last quarter of a century the importance of
good reading has been increasingly recognized in educa-
cational circles.

From the elementary grades, through school and college,
and after formal education is completed, the value of rapid
and accurate reading skill is a fundamental necessity. In
spite of the pervading influence of mass means of com-
munications, such as radio, television and motion pictures,
there is no real substitute for reading skill.

It is a generally accepted fact that many students do
not read as well as they could, while a large number of
students fall far below their potential reading standard.
Next to intelligence, general reading ability is often the most
significant difference between good and poor students. In a
survey made recently among eleventh grade pupils of the
same average intelligence, it was found that the good read-
ers made higher marks, not only in English, History and
similar subjects, but also in chemistry and mathematics.
The same results have come from studies of the relation-

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 23

ship between reading ability and academic success in college.

Remedial reading aims at improving basic reading skill
in speed and comprehension. It would be useless to increase
a pupil's speed if no corresponding increase in comprehen-
sion was attained. Each student presents a different prob-
lem, and by individual testing and observation, the remedial
reading teacher tries to discover and overcome the problems
facing each pupil.

During the past year, it has been most encouraging to
observe the progress made by the boys taking this course.
In every case an increase in reading speed has been ap-
parent, varying from 25 to over 100%. Three machines
are used in the work: the Tachitron, for training the eye in
recognition of numbers, words and phrases; the Pacer, for
practice in free reading and general reading; the Reading
Accelerator, for practice in reading speed and accuracy.

Student "R" was faced with definite reading disability,
but by regular practice he has progressed from slow and
inaccurate reading at a speed of under two hundred words
a minute to a reading speed of nearly three hundred and
twenty-five words with an increase in comprehension above
that required to maintain the balance of accuracy. His
school work, which was of a generally disappointing stand-
ard, has improved in all subjects and he obtained over 75%
in at least two subjects.

Student "B" on the oher hand, made good marks but
found himself behind in his assignments because of his slow
reading speed. In three months he has increased his speed
by over 100% and is now able to maintain a high standard
of work without undue strain.

Student "W" was held back by self -consciousness where
reading was concerned as he felt his ability was below that
expected of him. The individual training has helped him to
overcome this handicap and his work is now well above the
average standard of his form.

A tendency to vocalize each word made student "V" a
slow and hesitant reader, but he has now cured himself of
this fault and his speed and skill is improving steadily.

24 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

FOUND

During the term three wrist watches and a camera
with flash light attachment were found in the School and
have not been claimed by any boys. They were probably
left by visitors. The owners should write to the Headmaster.

THE JUNE RECORD

It was regretfully decided that the June and August
issues of The Record would have to be combined in order
to reduce the pretty heavy charges to the School. We hope
this change did not cause too much inconvenience to our
readers.

THE REPORT OF THE HIGH SCHOOL INSPECTOR

Dr. W. S. Turner spent two days at the School in May,
visiting Grade XII classes and talking to boys and masters.
His report to the Department of Education gives a very
complimentary review of the work done by pupils and the
instruction they receive. "Stimulating", "Superior", "Ex-
cellent", "Fine spirit of co-operation", are some of the
terms used and we hope we may be worthy of this judgment.

INSPECTION

"^DAYy

INSPECTION DAY — 1957

The week preceding the "Big" Day was wet and gusty,
the final Inspection Day practices being sandwiched between
stormy showers under a cold, ominous, overcast sky. It
was tactfully suggested that negative thinking on the part
of the School, who had almost resigned themselves to a
rained-out Inspection Day, was a contributing factor. Thus
it was no surprise, after an afternoon of concentrated sun-
shine positive thinking by the Cadet Corps, when the dawn
of Saturday, May 11, broke clear and sunny, heralding a
perfect day.

Promptly at 10.15 the Cadets proceeded through the
"fall-in" manoeuvres and marched out into position on the
campus, resplendent in their new uniforms. Though the
more modern and vastly more wearable Eisenhower type
battle jackets were welcomed by those who had to march,
there was somehow missing the old flash and sharpness
provided in past years by the blazing tunic buttons and
gaiters. The sight was a stirring one nonetheless.

When Air Vice Marshal Kennedy had finished the formal
inspection of the Corps, the cadets put on an impressive
display of teamwork in their marching and drill manoeuvres.
Midway in the proceedings. Cadet Sergeant T. R. Derry and
Cadet Aircraftsman R. J. Austin received their wings, earned
last summer at Flying School. The display was attended
by a large gathering of parents. Old Boys, and friends of
the School.

26 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

Following this, the Cadet Band, led by Cadet Flight
Sergeant Adam Saunders, put on a very splendid show,
which was agreed by all to be one of the best ever seen at
T.C.S.

Then the long-anticipated Inter-House Drill Competi-
tion took place. This year Brent House was led by Cadet
Flight Lieutenant Dave Cape and Bethune by Cadet Flight
Lieutenant Ian Binnie. As the Houses displayed their
marching prowess on the ground, a formation of R.C.A.F.
T-33 jets put on a spectacular show overhead. The scores
of both Houses were so close that the Judging Officers had
to decide the issue by testing the cadets with questions.
After the Panoramic Picture had been taken, it was an-
nounced that Brent House had been awarded the trophy.
Congratulations, men of Brent!

After an intermission for dinner, the day's festivities
continued with the annual gym show. The High Bar, Parallel
Bar, and Box-Horse teams co-ordinated their muscles to
good advantage in amazing the spectators, while the Physical
Training and Boulden House groups put on excellent per-
formances.

While the Headmaster held his reception at the Lodge
for the visitors, the boys and their enamoured partners
enjoyed a "coke" party over at the Tuck shop, where enter-
tainment was provided by the School Orchestra.

As the waning sun cast lengthening shadows on the
day's "battlefield," the erstwhile warriors adjourned to the
Gymnasium for an Informal Dance. And so the weeks of
hard effort came to a happy ending and a worthwhile con-
clusion amidst the amorous music of Bob Gilbert and his
record player, flashing flying-saucers, swaying planets, and
romantic looking spacemen complacently smiling down from
the four walls of the dance floor. And while we're at it,
congratulations to the Fifth Form Dance Committee, under
the energetic leadership of Blane Bowen, on the splendid
job they did with their lavish decorations, aptly entitled
"Space."

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

The School wishes to thank all those who helped with,
and attended, the Inspection Day, the citizens of Port
Hope for accommodating the large number of guests, and
Mrs. Clark and her staif for the wonderful meals they
provided throughout the weekend, despite the overwhelming
number of visitors present.

SPEECH V.
i^ DAY -

SPEECH DAY — 1957

The School year was almost over when the Speech Day
ceremonies began. The greater part of the student body
was eagerly anticipating a summer of profound leisure, the
members of the Leaving Class walked the halls with sober
countenances as the realization of impending separation
became painfully immediate. It was a fitting stage for the
hours that were to follow.

The opening act was the Athletic Prize giving on the
lawn in the early evening. When this was concluded, the
boys and visitors adjourned to Osier Hall for our annual
concert.

Though, as the Headmaster explained, the shortness
of the term, the recent preparations for Inspection Day,
and the urgency of oncoming examinations, had prevented
as thorough rehearsal in every phase of the programme as
one could ideally wish for, the Choir, under Mr. Cohu, and

28 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

the Glee Club, under Mr. Prower, provided a memorable
evening of very fine entertainment indeed.

To open the proceedings, the full Choir lustily sang
the School song, "The School on the Hill." This was fol-
lowed throughout the evening by other School songs and
a few lively popular selections to stir the sentimental
audience. The Adam Saunder's Quartet also provided a
dazzling number or two for the "non-squares" among the
listeners! The Boulden House Choir entertained us with
"To the Iron Bridge in June," and "To Lakefield in the
Morning," and the melodious Glee Club harmonized on the
"Whiff'an Poof Song" and "Get Me to the Church on Time."
The concert was fittingly culminated in a moving rendition
of "They're Singing You Off."

After the National Anthem had been sung, the concert
having been concluded, the School cascaded down to the
Assembly Room to see a Cloak and Dagger thriller entitled
"Decision Before Dawn."

This will just make next year's group anxious to go
one better.

The morning of the 8th of June dawned bright and
crystal clear, as the concluding scene at Trinity began to
take the stage.

The annual Leaving Service in the Chapel was colour-
ful and stirring, and included a most ambitious rendition
of the "Te Deum" by the choir. As the Chapel seating
capacity could not possibly accommodate the number of
guests present, loudspeakers carried the service out to the
lawns where worshippers sat in the glory of the morning
sunshine.

Following this service the Prize Giving began on the
terrace with Mr. Argue Martin, Q.C., as Chairman. The
Headmaster then gave his report covering the School year.
A large number of Gvoernors was present. Then came
the guest of honor, General Sir Neil Ritchie, whose speech
was very amusing to begin with and then settled into some
very sound and serious advice. His speech is published

TRINITY COL.LEGE SCHOOL. RECORD 29

in full in this issue of the Record. The formal presentation
of the prizes followed and Dave Sutton, Head Boy for
1957, and Rusty Dunbar, Terry Hall, and David Cape,
associate holders of the Bronze Medal, are to be con-
gratulated on their well deserved awards.

Following the presentation and the National Anthem,
the gathering was treated to a delectable buffet lunch.

With the shaking of hands, and the voicing of heart-
felt good wishes, good-byes were said to those who would
not be returning and to those who might be, and with the
disappearance of the last shining automobile over the
horizon, the Senior Matric candidates reluctantly shuffled
back to their books and the arduous task ahead.

ADDRESS GIVEN BY GENERAL SIR NEIL RITCHIE,

G.B.E., K.C.B., D.S.O., M.C.,

ON SPEECH DAY, JUNE 8, 1957

There are, I suspect, two reasons which may have
prompted Dr. Ketchum in having approached me to present
the prizes today.

First: — It has come to me on good authority that at
prize-giving last year His Excellency the Governor General
set up a record for brevity in prize-day addresses. Being a
soldier, and soldiers having the reputation of saying what
they have to say as quickly as decently possible, your Head-
master no doubt has hopes that I will continue in the tradi-
tion established by His Excellency in 1956. Of course every
school likes to create records and if the T.C.S. prize-day
technique of record making is to continue, might I suggest
to Dr. Ketchum that the time may come when he must in-
voke the aid of the Royal Navy — the senior and the silent
service. I feel confident that the Navy could, if tradition
prevails, set up a brevity record that would seldom, if
indeed ever, be broken.

Secondly: — Dr. Ketchum must by some means — perhaps
he is blessed with a form of "second sight," — have discovered

30 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

that I never won a prize for work at all during my school
life. So, with that background, I would be sympathetic to-
wards — have some common bond with — those who are not
receiving prizes today. Anyhow the vast majority of you
present here this morning join me in the non-prize-winning
category.

However, before going further, I congratulate all of
you who by your hard work and endeavours, have won prizes
this term. I congratulate you collectively now and will do
so individually at the presentations.

Naturally the majority do not win prizes at schools,
but believe me this does not in any way justify sitting
smugly back and making no effort to do so. After all, it is
effort that counts in life, either in the life of a Nation, a
Community, or in the lives of individuals. Do not please
misunderstand me about this.

Success, mediocrity, or failure at school is in fact the
pattern of what will face you in later life.

Just as not all can win prizes at school so, equally,
not all can later achieve greatness — the prize that the future
holds in store. There are amongst you here some upon whose
shoulders will descend the task of moulding the destinies
of this Nation of Canada and the consequent attainment of
high office and responsible leadership. Not all of you will
win fame as leaders, yet assuredly some of you will do this.
Who these will be depends on many things. Amongst these
perhaps one might mention moral courage, dogged determ-
ination and refusal to accept as final, disappointments and
defeats. All these demand effort and every single one of
you here can develop these characteristics. Whether you
achieve this or not rests with you, each and every one of
you, individually.

Leadership is needed amongst the people of any coun-
try, and perhaps the more so in one like Canada in lier rcipid
expansion and development. Because of this, the demand
for leadership in every form, and on every level, will be
great in the years that lie immediately ahead. What terrific

TRINITY COTJ.F.GE SCHOOL RECORD 31

opportunities lie before you all in this sphere, and what a
chance you Canadians of this generation have. Whatever
you decide is to be your career I suggest to you that you
should, as a background, always strive to do what you be-
lieve to be in the best interests of this great country of
yours, not what necessarily you calculate is most in your
own interests.

Worthwhile achievement — when you can say to your-
self "I'm proud of having achieved this" — invariably de-
mands some degree of self sacrifice or unselfishness. We
exist in relative security today largely because of the
sacrifices of those who have gone before — ^those who have
given much, and often their all, in the cause of securing
our country. Sometimes we are prone to forget the extent
of the sacrifice that has been paid. Perhaps you will allow
me to give you one illustration drawn from 1914. As you
will know, that was the year of the start of the First World
War. At the time I was a Cadet at the Royal Military
College at Sandhurst, in England. In December of that year,
together with five others, I was gazetted a Second Lieutenant
in The Black Watch. The war lasted for four years. At the
end of it, of those six of us who joined the Regiment to-
gether, four were dead, one had lost a leg, and I was the
only one left.

When I look back to the cricket team at my school in
the season of 1914, the whole lot lost their lives except me
and one other. There were only three of us left out of the
1913 football side. This may give you some appreciation
of the extent of this sacrifice.

One wonders why the young went forth then to die.
It was this I think. We were brought up to feel that we
had inherited from those who had gone before a sacred
trust, and that we belonged to a team charged with the
defense of the rights of free men. This outlook was, I
honestly think, very largely fostered by the playing of team
games at schools where one learned to work as a member
of a team, to forego the playing of the game purely for
oneself.

32 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL REJCORD

If you hope to contribute anything satisfactory and
worthwhile in Hfe, stick to that spirit.

One can go a long way back before 1914 to hear a
similar expression of views. It is said that the great Duke
of Wellington when he was asked how the Battle of Water-
loo was won replied that it was won on the playing fields
of Eton. What he meant, of course, was that the spirit
bred and engendered on those playing fields had produced
the leaders and taught the background of team-work that
made the British Army of 1815 such a formidable opponent
and such a successful fighting machine.

You, here at T.C.S., have just as good playing fields
as they have at Eton. You are brought up in a great tradi-
tion, with a knowledge of team work and in the realization
that without every member pulling his weight success will
not be achieved. You have a heritage in your School and
in your country.

To those of you who are leaving here for the last time,
I wish every good fortune in the future. Go forth into the
outer world taking with you the great tradition this School
has taught. Go in the knowledge too that those who follow
in your footsteps here will continue in that tradition and
will add to its lustre, just as I am sure you have done.

In closing I would charge you all to guard this heritage
fearlessly, unselfishly and strive in all your actions to
further the interests of your Native Land rather than purely
your own.

HEADMASTER'S REPORT

Speech Day, June 8th, 1957

Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:

On Monday next Canadians are going to have the
privilege of choosing who are to govern them and who are
to represent them in open discussion of the country's affairs,
called Parliament. We have become so used to having this
opportunity, given to us by our Mother Country, that we

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 33

rarely realize it is a privilege, and one enjoyed by only a
small proportion of the world's people. It is one of the
many advantages of democractic liberty and one which must
be cherished and treasured, for it was won after great trial,
and it has been preserved twice in this century against
the fury and bestial cruelty of ambitious men.

Our Guest of Honour to-day, General Sir Neil Ritchie,
is one of that small group of Army commanders who faced
appalling odds in the spring of 1940 and by their leadership
made Dunkirk a name to be remembered for all time. Be-
cause the larger part of the British forces were safely re-
turned to England, the free world was enabled to stay in
the battle and eventually to conquer that unprecedented
threat to all liberty loving men. Dunkirk and St. Valery were
just seventeen years ago, the Battle of Britain seventeen
years ago and a few months. It was a surprise to me to realize
that there are only a few boys in this School who were
born when the Second World War began in September 1939 ;
so quickly do the years pass, and sometimes the new
generation is not given a clear picture of the issues at stake
and the incomparable bravery and self-sacrifice of their
fathers and fore-fathers. Last Sunday we were recalling
the gallant service of fourteen hundred of our own Old
Boys and a winner of the Victoria Cross was here to speak
to us.

General Ritchie is one of those gallant officers who
stood in the front line in the two most fearful crises of
modern times ; as a junior officer in 1914 in the Black Watch
he led his men in the terrible trench warfare of the day,
serving in France, Mesopotamia and Palestine. At the end
of the war he was a Captain and had been awarded the
Distinguished Service Order and the Military Cross for
exceptional bravery and leadership.

In 1940 he commanded the 51st Highland Division in
France and Belgium. Lord Alanbrooke, in command of the
British Forces and later Chief of the General Staff, whose
recent book 'The Turn of the Tide' is such a fascinating

34 TRIl^IITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

story, mentions General Ritchie many times and speaks of
his most valuable and reliable help during those days when
whole populations and many of our Allied armies were in
utter confusion, alarm and terror, trying to save them-
selves from the frightening and massive destructive power
of the German Nazi Armies. General Ritchie, with a few
other commanders, met one appalling situation after an-
other and most of the British Forces were eventually saved,
though his own Division, the 51st, was put in an impossible
situation by the leader of the French Forces and suffered
terrible losses. General Ritchie then became deputy Chief
of Staff of the Middle East and in 1941 was given command
of the 8th Army in Libya, at a time when that army was
almost totally without effective striking power in the form
of tanks and other weapons. He later commanded the 12th
Army Corps in France, and after the war became Com-
mander-in-Chief of the Far East Land Forces. He repre-
sented his country in Washington on the Joint Services
Mission and was appointed an Aide de Camp to His Majesty.
France, the United States, Holland, and Poland bestowed
their highest honours on him and the King conferred on
him the Knight Grand Cross of the British Empire and
constituted him a Knight Commander of the Bath for his
gallant and invaluable services to the people of the Com-
monwealth and free peoples everywhere.

We salute General Sir Neil Ritchie, G.B.E., K.C.B.,
D.S.O., M.C., and give him in our inadequate words an
expression of our admiration and a most sincere welcome
to Trinity College School.

Again the School family has lost many senior Old Boys
and Governors during the year: we think particularly of
Colonel John Langmuir, for so long Secretary and Chair-
man of the Governing Body, of Geoff O'Brian, Dr. Robert
Armour, Mr. Philip DuMoulin, Air Marshal Billy Bishop,
V.C, and many others. Just recently Charles van Strau-
benzee, son and grandson of Army officers, was killed
serving with the U.N.E.F. in Egypt, and Garry Dalgleish

TRINITY COTir.F.GE SCHOOL RECORD 35

died while at the University. The School will always re-
member these sons of the Hill and devoted supporters.

School years come and go and every one seems to have
its own character. There are now over 4,600 boys on our
list and so many of them have brought renown to them-
selves and their School over the ninety-two years of our
history.

Last autumn Mr. McFarlane and I visited Old Boys in
the principal cities of the West and enjoyed every minute
of our trip. We have had over five hundred boys from Win-
nipeg and the West and we were encouraged and inspired
to find so many of them remembering the School with
affection.

There have been notable gatherings of Old Boys in
Montreal and Toronto and last month Mrs. Ketchum and
I spent three delightful days in Montreal, meeting members
of the Guild, Old Boys, Governors, and Parents. The annual
meeting of the Toronto Ladies' Guild was one of the best
in its 54 years' history, and we are always indebted to
the mothers for the wonderful help they give to the School
year by year.

The T.C.S. Fund, instituted a year ago, has made re-
markable progress and there seems to be reason for ex-
pecting that the total amount given or expected will reach
a million dollars by the end of this calendar year. We shall
always be deeply indebted to you and so many others who
have contributed generously to the Fund and given such
valuable assistance in the organization and implementing
of the campaign. These Independent Schools will not be
able to carry on and do the work expected of them unless
they have other sources of income in addition to fees as
our sister schools have in England and the United States.
T.C.S. is now assisting very materially some forty boys
of real promise whose parents could not meet the full fees:
it is a privilege to be in a position to give such help and
I feel that the Independent Schools have an obligation to
make it possible for such boys to have the benefits of a

36 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

boarding School education, an obligation to the country
at large. New and valuable Bursaries have been given or
are being given by Mrs. Pennyman Worsley, in memory
of her husband, by Mrs. Brainerd, Sr., Mrs. Thomas Brainerd,
and Mrs. Harris in memory of Tommy Brainerd, by Mr.
G. S. Osier in memory of Susie Osier, and Mrs. Willa Gundy
and Mr. Dudley Dawson in memory of Mr. Dudley Dawson.

It is encouraging and gratifying to see how many
recent T.C.S. boys are doing particularly well at uni-
versities and in their careers: some of these are mentioned
in the prize lists. It is not always realized that well over
80 Tr of all the boys who enter our Senior School go on
to Universities or other higher education: that is about
70% more than the similar group at High Schools and Col-
legiates. This year we have boys at some thirty-five different
universities in several countries.

We are all going to miss several masters who are
leaving us this year: Mr. Landry has been with us eight
years and has done excellent work in every way. He is
now going to study for his Ph.D. at McGill. Mr. Molson
returned to the Staff three years ago to settle down once
again at T.C.S. but he has been appointed Headmaster of
Stanstead College: we congratulate him and give him our
warmest good wishes.

Mr. Brown has made a distinguished contribution on
the Mathematics staff in two short years and is now leaving
to take his degree at McGill. Mr. Perry is becoming an
Instructor in the Navy. We do thank these masters for
all they have done to help the boys in their care: Mr.
Landry and Mr. Brown, going to do university work, we
should like to feel were on leave of absence and we hope
they will be with us again in a few years' time. I should
also mention how much we shall all miss the Molson and
Landry families, delightful and charming members of our
community.

It is always encouraging to see Old Boys entering the
teaching profession: this year we have had nine Old Boys

TRINITY COLUEGE SCHOOL. RECORD 37

on our staff and next year another Old Boy, Roger Kirk-
patrick, is joining us. Altogether, nearly thirty Old Boys
are teaching in Universities or Schools. The number of Old
Boys entering the Ministry and Medicine has also increased
in recent years and we know what invaluable work they
can do in those professions.

Mrs. Wilson in the Senior School and Mrs. Christie in
Boulden House have been indispensable in their work as
Matrons and we are truly indebted to them. Mrs. Burns,
my secretary for over six years, had to go on a reduced
time-table two months ago and has now resigned as
secretary. She has done expert and unending work and
though the volume has increased at least fifty percent since
she came she has kept up with it in a remarkable way. We
shall always be grateful to her and hope that she will be
available to help us out from time to time.

Sometimes I wonder if we are not all in the danger
of being almost suffocated by an ever increasing daily
wave of wood pulp in the form of paper and ink. One way
or another we must do our utmost not to become slaves
to the typewriter and to meetings and especially in schools
to remember that the really important work is personal
and individual.

Our new heating plant was finished in the autumn and
has functioned most efficiently. Mr. Hall's help was in-
valuable in that connection. We are now planning additional
housing for boys to the East of Brent House and next
September we hope to say good-bye once and for all to
our overflow quarters. We are also looking forward to
having more housing for masters in the buildings, and in
separate houses, but the latter cannot be constructed im-
mediately. Since the end of the War wc have been enabled
to add the new Tuck building, the new Rink, given by Mr.
George McCullagh, the Memorial Chapel, the new Library,
the new Kitchen wing and equipment, two Masters' Houses,
the new Heating Plant, and much reconstruction to exist-
ing buildings.

38 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL. RECORD

Last summer Trinity Camp was again run most suc-
cessfully for less privileged boys from the cities and this
year's Pat Moss committee has made excellent preparations
for another camp. Mr. Gordon, who did so well last sum-
mer, cannot be in charge this year because of illness and
Mr, Angus Scott has nobly taken on the direction of that
most worthwhile undertaking. Over four hundred and fifty
dollars has been contributed by the boys and masters to
the expenses of this camp.

Three hundred dollars was given toward the assistance
of Hungarian refugees, and we have had a young medical
student from Budapest living at the School for nearly two
months. We have all been impressed by his character and
personality as well as by his facility in English and he
has made many friends among the boys.

When the prizes are being given you will realize that
this year has been a very successful one. We have had
better students in the VI Form than in most years, the
level of scholarship has been good but could be better in
most other forms, the athletic and club activities have
been carried on well, indeed, three of our teams, the foot-
ball, hockey and swimming teams, ended their seasons at
the top of the heap, the Swimming Team being undisputed
champions, and the Football and Hockey tieing with St.
Andrew's and Upper Canada respectively. The Play and
Boulden House Pantomime were unusually well acted and
staged; the Choir has had new triumphs; Dr. Spencer has
done most important and extremely helpful work in our
new remedial reading department, many boys learning for
the first time that they can read much more quickly and
more accurately. Boys have taken out twice as many books
from the Library, an average of ten each, and much praise
must go to Mr. Gordon and his assistants. The Cadets kept
up the high standard set since 1866, and two boys, Hutcliln-
son and Levedag, won Queen's Silver Medals for shooting;
two others, Austin and Derry won Air Cadets pilot's Wings.
The Hockey Team, under Hall and Cape, took part in the

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 39

Lawrenceville Tournament at Princeton with seven American
schools, being defeated in the final game 3-2 by St. Paul's
School. We have already been invited to go again next
December to represent Canada.

Boulden House has had another good year and I wish
to pay special tribute to Mr. Charles Tottenham, the Prin-
cipal. He has been on the staff of T.C.S. now for twenty
years and during every one of those twenty years we have
realized how extremely fortunate we are as a School to
have him in such a responsible post. Long may he and
his family continue at the School.

The examinations for entry to the Senior School were
written in March, earlier by many weeks than ever before,
but boys are being entered now in many cases years before
they will come to T.C.S. The tests we set are more search-
ing and combine both achievement and native ability tests.
Eighty-two boys wrote them this year from all across
Canada, from the United States, Mexico, South American
countries, England, France and South Africa. Seven boys
won scholarships and others won bursary assistance. Since
then applications have come in some numbers every week
but both Boulden House and the Senior School have been
filled since April as far as we can tell at present.

Our objective is to find places for all boys of promise
who have learnt how to take full advantage of the oppor-
tunities offered to them. The standard of work done at
this School must be a very high standard, higher than
ever before, and at the same time we want boys of char-
acter and widely varying interests. It is our purpose to
search them out and by giving them excellent training to
fit them for making a very real contribution to the life
of this country. There is a danger of our Canadian lads of
the third and fourth generation feeling that they can coast
on their father's or grandfather's success. One reads the
names in the first class honours and scholarship lists of our
Colleges and sees scores of foreign names; the Principal of
one of our great Universities has made the statement that
the new Canadians are the ones who do the best work

40 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

because they know fully the privilege of being offered
higher education and the immense importance of it. Too
many Canadian boys are content to enjoy life and get by
one way or another. We must encourage and inspire our
own lads to be hungry and enthusiastic for learning, and
the early years are all important to that end.

Before closing, I wish again to tell you how much we
owe to the Staff and the Senior Boys of this School. To
an extent not usually found in a school of this type the
Senior boys contribute to our life by example and precept
and by the student system of government in which we set
such value. We are always working to the goal of self-
direction and self-discipline which is of inestimable value
in life and we feel we have achieved encouraging success
in that endeavour.

I like the simple and direct remarks made by the late
Principal R. C. Wallace of Queen's University; "There are
some elemental principles which I would ask you to keep
constantly in mind before you:

"Experience teaches us that only by sacrifice can we
achieve; the measure of what we can get is the measure
of what we are prepared to give. The world will become
more humane, more decent and more truly spiritual to
the degree and to the degree only that you and I and
others cultivate decency and achieve a high spiritual life.
No system in itself will work the miracle. It depends on
us."

To our Senior boys we are indebted for all they have
meant to the School in this past year and we know they
have had most valuable experience; may they continue to
use their talents to the full, develop their constancy of
purpose which always brings success, and be of some real
service to their fellow men — Talents, Constancy, Service,
T.C.S., and above all may they keep Faith with their high
ideals, with themselves, their families, their country and
the brotherhood of man.

We at the School will often think of you and wish
you well: may every good fortune be yours.

THE PRODIGIOUS SNOB

Moliere is a dramatist whose works are not often per-
formed by school dramatic societies. In a way this is a
pity because the great French playwright was a master of
his craft and his comedy still remains fresh and lively after
three centuries. Given adequate direction his "Le Bourgeois
Gentilhomme" is well within the scope of most amateur
groups.

Trinity College School Dramatic Society amply illus-
trated this when they chose the Miles Malleson adaptation
of this classic of the stage for their end of term concert
last night at the School. Mr. Malleson's translation en-
titled "The Prodigious Snob," was adapted by an actor for
present day presentations. It sacrifices nothing of the wit
and wisdom of the original.

To be a success with a School cast the play requires
intelligent direction by a producer content to keep within
the limits of his cast. Mr. Angus Scott supplied this last
night. In some respects he was over bold but his insistence
that the play be a spectacle was much to be preferred to
a wishy-washy performance. Mr. Scott strove to entertain
and his cast succeeded in keeping a large audience of parents
and friends in a continual state of amusement.

He chose colour and movement as his mediums for
entertainment. In this he was immensely helped by the set
that scenery designer Mr. Philip Bishop had provided. The

TRINITY COLJLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 53

salon, if it could be called such, of M. Jourdain was a period
piece while intelligent use was also made of the foreground
of the stage in providing a Parisian street scene that was
truly authentic.

Mrs. K. Spencer furthered this transformation to 17th
century France by a lavish display of costumes that could
be faulted in very few particulars.

The crowd scenes were well handled. The movements
of a large cast about a small stage never left a cluttered
up impression. The conferring of the rank of Turkish
nobility on the unsuspecting Mr. Jourdain in the last act was
a good example of this. The intricate pattern of dancing
and sword play was skilfully worked out. The fencing
lesson, too, extracted tons of humour without degenerating
into a farce.

The cast all joined in the conspiracy to entertain. The
story of the humble tradesman who, having made his pile,
aspires to become a man of quality calls for acting of
exceptional ability in the title role. The society was fortunate
in having just such a person in Ian Binnie. Upon him de-
pended the fortunes of the play. His success in the part
of M. Jourdain assured the success of the whole evening.

The temptation to burlesque the part on occasion must
have been irresistible. It is to Binnie's credit that he scru-
pulously avoided this. Hence his Jourdain, while always a
figure of fun, was never a caricature and at times evoked
sympathy rather than derision. He let the vanity of Jourdain
lead him into situations and relied on the natural develop-
ment of such situations to extricate him. This quiet re-
strained treatment was the right approach.

It was not expected that the acting of the rest of a
large cast would be uniform. The female roles were not so
well handled. An exception to this was the performance of
Ramsey Derry as Jourdain's practical wife and David Stock-
wood as the saucy maid Nicole. Ted Ketchum and Colin
McNairn teamed up splendidly as a master and servant com-
bination and enjoyed one of their best scenes in their con-

54 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

versation in the Paris streets. McNairn's sketch of Jour-
dain's tailor was lofty in its contempt of the upstart trades-
man.

Others to impress were the dancing master and the
music master, R. B. Hodgetts and D. M. C. Sutton, who had
a vested interest in M. Jourdain's newly found prosperity.
Count Durante (J. D. Barry) had his moments as chief
cadger of the bourgeois' fortune. P. B. M. Hyde played the
latter's intended while J. M. Braden was Jourdain's daugh-
ter. The lesser roles of flunkeys, dervishes, dancing girls
and musicians were well maintained.

At times the pace of the production moved a little
slowly, a common fault in opening night performances.
However, one was left with the feeling that the cast's reach
had not entirely exceeded its grasp and in choosing Moliere
courage and enterprise had been amply rewarded.

"THE GREAT ORCHARD FHIE OF 1957"

Saturday, March 30, dawned clear and hot over T.C.S.
It appeared that its only claim to fame was to be the
beginning that morning of the Upper School test exams but
great things were in the offing. As the exam was ending,
sharp eyes in Trinity House noticed smoke curling up above
the orchard down near Mr. Armstrong's barn. Then flames
were noticed dancing under the smoke which was growing
thicker by the moment.

By this time, boys from the School began to gather
out on the road to watch what appeared to be a fire designed
to burn the brush between the trees. As they watched, the
wind from the lake grew stiffer and the flames crackled
more menacingly as they reached the road. When the Head-
master, Engineer, and Bursar arrived with looks of conoem
showing clearly on each of their faces, the realization that
this fire was not apart of the regular routine was deeply
impressed on all those present. As the flame and smoke

TRINITY CODLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 55

began to march before the swift wind towards the hospital,
all the boys, from Prefect to New Boy, entered the fray.

This reporter viev/ed the conflagration from the hill
behind the rink. Beneath were great clouds of billowing
smoke behind which the flames crackled with their pro-
gress. Moving figures could be seen appearing and disappear-
ing and their shouts rose above the fire. Hoses from the
hospital were playing water on the roof and surrounding
trees as the flames approached. Then, fate took a hand
and the wind shifted to the south, driving the flames away
from the grove near the buildings — rather to the disappoint-
ment of the "gallant" firefighters who wanted a real fire
on their hands.

Then all of a sudden the fire was under control. Only
a few scattered flames flickered near the south fence and
the Port Hope Fire Department made quick work of them.
Everyone was left standing around on the hot, scorched
earth, still looking for some more flames. At one moment
the whole orchard appeared a mass of flames and minutes
later all that remained was a burnt smell and rapidly dis-
appearing smoke. Everybody was glad no real damage was
done but were quite disappointed that the fire gave up the
fight so easily. After all, there were still two more hours
until lunch.

Seriously, it was the first real fire alarm that has
sounded through the halls of the School since the fire of
1929, and everybody got some exercise and a good topic of
conversation for lunch. The cause ? It was originally started
by one man to burn grass but got out of control because of
the stiff breeze from the lake. A most exhilarating morning.

"RATION YOUR ROCK AND ROLL"

(A Searching Probe Into T.C.S. Musical Tastes)

In a recent tour along the flats, (prior to the "No

Phonographs Act,") the absence of classical music in all

rooms was sorrowfully noted. Music in these rooms ranged

from the extreme of the latest rock 'n roll, through dixie.

calypso, romantic jazz, down to one square who was listen-
ing to "My Fair Lady." I therefore decided to make a
completely unbiased, unprejudiced, and impersonal report
of the opinion of the School on classical music.

"Do you not agree," I asked individuals at random,
"that classical music is vastly superior in all respects to
current popular music?"

My first interview was with a well rounded person with
receding curly black hair. He greeted me with a friendly
and energetic "Howdy." He seemed to have a bad case of
laryngitis but was very willing to discuss music. Un-
fortunately, to each of us, music had a somewhat different
meaning. Our discussion therefore ran on two separate
planes and such musical personalities as Joe "Fingers"
Chopin, and "Little Richard" Wagner were mentioned.
Although it was not for him, my hoarse voiced friend did
admit that "Classical music is here to stay!"

Other interviews were less favourable and most opinions
were negative, varying from complete disinterest to an al-
most fanatical hatred. I did, however, find a few people
who found classical music "... good to sleep to."

I then turned from School opinion to School identifica-
tion and appreciation of classical music. Results were now
more gratifying. Several people definitely recognized the
"William Tell" overture but confused the name with that
of a mythical hero of the western United States. Beethoven's
Ninth Symphony, the music he wrote for a pagan poem,
was identified as a hymn tune. In the field of appreciation,
several particularly co-ordinated individuals actually recog-
nized rhythm in the "Blue Danube" waltz and one cat with
a cool beat discovered some in the "Bolero."

When I inquired into the practical musical experience
of members of the School, I discovered an extraordinarily
large number of people who had taken some sort of music
lessons, usually piano, at an early age. Unfortunately,
most of these would-be virtuosi soon gave up a musical
career, despite parental objections.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 57

Having completed my comprehensive survey of the
School's attitude toward classical music, I made the follow-
ing conclusion. Classical music holds a higher place in
School opinion than is at first realized. The reason for
tending to keep it under a bushel is that many people have
a fear of being labled "square."

I therefore recommend certain guides to all those daring
to venture into the vast and empty halls of classical music.
Contemporary popular musicians are doing their best to
bring the classics to the untrained ear. Rachmaninoff's Pre-
lude in C minor has been liberally adapted by Les Elgart
and retitled "Rocky's Prelude." Chopin's Nocturne in E
flat is enjoying one of its periodic revivals under the title
of "The Right to Love Again." For a piece of classical music
that is pretty hot in its original form I would strongly sug-
gest to all, the "Damnation of Faust."

MODERN MUSIC

Times have changed although modern fuddy-duddies
who are endeavouring to retard the progress of civilization
won't admit it! Bach, Beethoven, Schubert, and all the
great composers of the seventeenth century still reign as
the kings of music, yet a new phase of music has now made
its way in the culture of our North American society.

Jazz! The product of such towns as Chicago and
New Orleans has become the foremost form of musical
expression in both the United States and Canada. A new
sound has been developed from chording and counter-point
that is just as intricate as that produced by the seventeenth
century counterparts of Stan Kenton and Kid Ory and other
celebrities of what is known as The Jazz World.

Jazz originated with the negro spirituals of the Vivil
War period which gave to music a "beat". There is prob-

60 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

ably no other way to describe thtis but in that modern
colloquial term. Down in New Orleans in the early 1900's
negro musicians began to interpret themselves through their
trumpets or clarinets or drums until the Dixieland style
portrayed by the fabulous Louis Armstrong and Eddie Con-
don and various other groups across the country became
famous. As this new sound in music made its way north-
ward, a new interpretation was picked up in Chicago where
there arose a characteristic honky-tonk played in the back-
room dives during the '20's. Across in New York, Boogie
Woogie was just another variation of this new thing, jazz.

In the 1950's, each band or group endeavoured to dis-
tinguish itself from others by its sound. Back before the
war, Glenn Miller introduced such a distinctive sound that
nobody in the world could mistake who was playing "In the
Mood."

Likewise, Stan Kenton has his distinctive progressive
jazz which involves extremely difficult chording to give an
almost discord effect which is exciting to hear. Les Elgart's
characteristic "swing easy" music is easily recognized by
the dominating trombones in the background whereas Dixie-
land as portrayed by Eddie Condon is counterpoint at its
extremes. All across the United States and Canada great
jazz artists are practically worshipped by admiring audi-
ences. Good examples of these artists are those who have
mastered drum techniques, such as Shelley Mann, Gene
Krupa, Louis Bellson and Buddy Rick.

No, I haven't forgotten Rock 'n Roll or Rhythm and
Blues. Here is music also evolved from negro music which,
when combined with hillbilly tunes, has produced quite a
unique effect on audiences, especially among the teenagers
of the country. It emphasizes the "beat" to a far greater
extent than any other form of jazz, Elvis Presley, Little
Presley, Little Richard, Fats Domino and other artists are
opposed by all those who feel they have any degree of in-
telligence within them, yet I feel they have produced some-
thing that is possibly very different but also very intriguing.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL. RECORD 01

Jazz is the music I love and am devoted to. The music
with the "beat" has been accepted and is here to stay. Those
who are contributing to it are also contributing to a char-
acteristic and original culture of our land.

His foot was the surest,

Until, looking down

For the thirtieth time

A fleeting dread appeared.

It seized his mind

And so he stood,

It was filled with unthought-of caution.

And so he slipped.

DISARMAMENT

At the present time, the countries of the world, as in
the years before World War II, are taking part in World
Disarmament Conferences. These conferences are not widely
publicized mainly because nothing of any significance takes
place at them. Indeed, the great significance of these con-
ferences is not what is done of a positive nature, but rather
the air of complete pessimism which surrounds them. The

62 TRINITY COLLJ5GE SCHOOL RECORD

countries represented are quite distrustful of one another,
and decidedly two -faced, for while proposing disarma-
ment plans with one hand, they are building up terrific
destructive armaments with the other. In this state of
affairs, successful world disarmament is well nigh impossible
and the continuance of the conferences approaches the
ridiculous.

But let us for a moment become wishful thinkers and
consider the effects of complete world disarmament. Would
there immediately emerge a happy, peaceful, and contented
world? The answer is definitely NO! The result would be
a dreadful and miserable depression. The terrific economic
boom we are experiencing in Canada today is largely due
to the pressure of an approaching war. Government spend-
ings on defence are enormous. This means that a large
percentage of Canadian raw materials is being used for
defence, and a tremendous number of people are employed
in the various stages of armament-making. Our heavy in-
dustry would have to be geared to a peacetime market. Only
recently, the chairman of a well-known aircraft company
denounced in ringing terms the economic ruin that would
result from any possible government defence cuts. The
totalitarian government has a great advantage over the
democratic one in this respect for they can quickly enforce
such measures of adjustment after disarmament as are
necessary.

It thus becomes apparent that in order to have suc-
cessful disarmament we shall have to plan ahead. A practical
step that should be taken now is the establishment of a
Canadian Disarmament Council. Its purpose would be to
investigate thoroughly Canada's defence economy and to
put forward a plan for the adjustment of many Canadian
industries to permanent peacetime activities. This would
require the co-operation of all these industries. Hence the
council should consist of men representing the various fields
of industry which disarmament would affect. Not only
would such a council result in Canada being better prepared

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 63

for disarmament, but also its very existence would help to
dispel the pessimism which surrounds disarmament. The
cost of such a council would be negligible compared to the
chaos of a "disarmament depression", certainly far less than
that of a Third World War.

NAUTICAL EVENING

The happy sun sinks at the dawn of night.

Mosquitoes whine: moist fish-flies fill the air,

The wintry dew falls softly on my hair.

In my blankets I lie, in the half-light,

Watching that mast, like a pendulum's tight sway.

Moving among the half -lit stars up there

In endless space, while on the deck from where

I he, I see the day is lost from sight.

The night lamp, creaking, swings from the backstay;

The halyards smartly slap the half -lit mast;

The anchor chains rattle instead of sigh;

But, engulfed in a strange loneliness, I lie

Painting crude star-sketches, until at last

The angel-drawn vessel of sleep slides by.

SPORTS EDITORIAL

With the year drawing to a close let us glance at the
results of our athletic endeavours. The School produced
three Little Big Four Championship teams ; being first teams
Football, Hockey and Swimming. The football title was
shared with Saint Andrew's and the hockey with Upper
Canada while the swimming was a complete victory, al-
though Ridley was close behind us throughout the meet.
The Cricket team this year was rather cramped for time
and finished tieing for third place with S.A.C. and coming
within a worm cast of trimming Ridley. The team showed
good spirit and played fine cricket throughout the short
season. First teams Basketball, Squash and Gym, although
they were not champions, all had good seasons and look
very promising for the years to come.

There was a surprising number of new coaches this
year. Mr. Lawson was all-successful in his rookie year with
the First Football Team, and also coached Middleside
hockey and Littleside Cricket which likewise did well in
interschool athletics. Mr. Heard in his first year of teach-
ing at the School took First Team Basketball and Middle-
side football and moulded them both into fast potential
teams. Mr. Massey coached the Junior Swimming team and
although they were not constant victors, he developed a

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 65

good number of boys who we hope to see on next year's
First team. Middleside Cricket was taken by Mr. Wing,
who also is a new master.

We had a most successful Sports Day this year, as four
records were broken on the field and three in track. Track
this spring was limited to the inter-house meet (won by
Bethune) because Inspection Day and exams absorbed the
time required to train a good competing team.

The inter-house sports this year were as close as they
have ever been. Going into the last term Brent and
Bethune were tied, and the House Cricket matches and the
LeSueur Tennis matches were left to decide the victor.
When these trophies were equally divided between the
Houses, the interesting and surprising result of a tie in
Inter-House athletics was reached.

There were six Distinction Caps awarded this year,
Terry Hall winning two for Football and Hockey, Rusty
Dunbar one in Football, Colin McNairn in Football, Allan
Shier in Hockey and Frank Stephenson in Cricket.

That just about wraps up the Sports picture for 1956-
57, except to wish the best of luck to all the teams in
1957-58 and the years to follow.

T.CS. FIRST XI vs. U.C.C.

At Upper Canada College, Saturday, May 25

In their opening Little Big Four cricket match of the
season, the First Team took on a very powerful Upper
Canada club, and lost by the somewhat overwhelming score
of 176-90. U.C.C. needed only seven batters to provide their
total, and two batters alone hit the ball all over the field
for 127 runs.

Upper Canada College batted first. John Bassett pro-
vided the hosts with well over half their runs, scoring an
even century. Essaye and Grant followed in that order,
with 27 and 20 runs respectively. Eric Stephenson led the
Trinity bowlers taking four wickets for 36 runs.

66 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL lOBCORD

The U.C.C. bowling shone as they put the Trinity side
all out for 90 runs, Frank Stephenson was the high batter
for the School, scoring 27 runs, while Whitehead and Minard
followed with 14 and 9 runs respectively. Grant led the
bowlers for U.C.C, taking 3 wickets for 9 runs. To veil also
bowled well for the College taking 5 wickets for 44 runs.

FIRST XI vs. RIDLEY COLLEGE

At Taronto Cricket Club, Wednesday, May 30. Lost 101-97

On the Toronto Cricket Club field the Trinity XI were
edged out by a Ridley team in a very close game, 101-97.

Trinity, being the visitors, opened the batting and
began on the right foot having two out for 35 runs. Then
they slowed down temporarily until the seventh batter,
Frank Stephenson, hit out 48 runs and carried his bat. The
rest of the team went down comparatively easily to leave
the T.C.S. final score at 97 runs. Kitson and Poole took all
the wickets for Ridley with Kitson taking six for 39 runs
and Poole four for 35.

When Trinity took to the field they put the hosts down
like flies, taking five wickets for 21 runs. Then Kitson and
Coy started to play cautiously and eventually between them
they scored 49 runs, 28 and 21 respectively. More wickets
fell and there were nine out for 91, six runs needed to tie
the score. The last two batters pulled their team out of
the tight spot as they walked into the bowling and hit
enough runs to make the score 101-97 for Ridley when the
stumps were drawn.

FIRST XI vs. ST. ANDREW'S COLLEGE

At Port Hope, Saturday, June 3. Tied 147-147

Five minutes to play. Saint Andrew's last man was in
with one run needed to tie the game, the Trinity field was
playing as tight as possible, then Harry Vaughn of S.A.C.
placed a leg cut worth one run which brought Jim Wyse to
the wicket. He hit the next ball hard to mid off — it looked
like at least one run but Dave Cape picked it off the top

TRINITY COLi>EGE SCHOOL RECORD gj

of the grass and the team was out with the score tied. It
was the first tie game in the Little Big Four since 1942
when Ridley tied us at the Cricket Club.

Trinity opened the batting and began losing four fast
wickets for 25 runs. Then Frank Stephenson came into bat,
and in one hour managed to hit up 56 runs before being
caught out by Gray. Jim Hyland also added to our total
with his 20 not out. The team scored 147.

Saint Andrew's started fast, having four for 137. But
bad luck was to follow and they were the same for five,
six, and seven, and were 139 for eight and 141 for nine.
Then with ten minutes to play Jim Wyse and Harry Vaughan
together ran up six to tie the game at 147-147. Stronach
was the powerhouse for S.A.C. scoring 65 runs in one hour
and fifteen minutes. Ketchum made fifty for S.A.C.

Gray was the top bowler for the Saints obtaining an
average of 10.75 runs per wicket, while Whitehead and
Hodgetts shone for Trinity with 7.22 and 6.0 averages re-
spectively.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL FIRST GYM TEAM

Our Gym team this year had a surprisingly good season
considering the age and inexperience of its members. Their
season's record is a commendable one, three wins, two
losses and a tie.

The team this year was captained by Hugh Ellis, with
Vice-Captain Derry, and was again well coached by Mr.
Armstrong.

Members of the First team were Ellis, Derry, Davies,
Hugh Gordon, Colby, and Fred Gordon. Throughout the
season Hugh Ellis and Chris Davies alternated between
first and second place. Ellis took top honours at St.
Andrew's, North Toronto and Oshawa, while Davies triumph-
ed at Etobicoke, Oshawa (return), and in the Etobicoke
Invitational Tournament.

All but one member of the squad are due back next
year, and we look forward to a very promising season of
championship calibre Gym at the School next year.

to 10' IV2", and Bob Hart broke the intermediate event
with 9' 1". Hart also broke his own javelin record throwing
149' 10%". In the intermediate aggregate two other records
were smashed when Peter Levedag threw the shot put
38' 41/2" and Peter Lerch jumped 5'5Vi" in the high jump.
For the juniors John Braden ran the 880 yards in 2.22:9 and

BOULDEN HOUSE RECORD

Looking back over the year we can be thankful for
many things and most especially for the good health en-
joyed by the School.

In spite of some moments of doubt, we were most
fortunate in our weather this term and were able to fit
in all our matches, picnics and other such important events.

Congratulations to our teams on Inspection Day. The
Tumbling Team did a very good job indeed and the Club
Swinging was well up to standard. The Demonstration
Team made up of Forms lA and I was a change from the
usual routine and performed well.

Our shooting was particularly good this year and
Barber is to be congratulated on winning the Cup. He was
up against stiff competition.

The First Cricket XI did a particularly good job and
seemed to improve with each game. Both the fielding and

A very good Summer Holiday to all members of Boulden

THE PLAY AT U.C.C. —
CAPTAIN SCUTTLEBOOM'S TREASURE

On Saturday morning, March 16, twenty boys from
Boulden House travelled to Upper Canada College to take
part in an evening of one act plays. The play chosen was
entitled "Captain Scuttleboom's Treasure." Set on a
pleasant, desert island in the Southern seas, this humorous
play, written by Ronald Gow, is the story of a group of
rough, tough but homesick pirates led by their captain,
Ebenezer Scuttleboom (excellently played by C. J. Totten-
ham), looking for a treasure which can only be hunted for
on Midsummer's Day. Old-fashioned Scuttleboom is sud-
denly overwhelmed by a group of playful schoolboys led
by their scientific-minded schoolmaster, Mr. Fish (superbly
played by N. F. J. Ketchum) , and is greatly disgusted when

72 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL. RECORD

Mr. Fish and his boys, with the aid of modern instruments
and a knowledge of science quickly find the treasure for
which the pirates have been looking for seventeen years.
They are soon, however, disappointed when the treasure
turns out to be a collection of cheap glass beads and orna-
ments. Taking advantage of the situation, Mr. Fish promises
the pirates a free trip home in return for a course of science,
mathematics, and a little English grammar. They all agree
to this with the exception of Scuttleboom, and pirates and
boys go, leaving Scuttleboom alone. The play takes a twist
here and Scuttleboom is surprised to find that he has a
new crew as the boys, who have given Fish the slip, return
led by the black sheep of the group, Jones (also well acted
by D. G. Shewell). The play closes where the boys promise
to follow Scuttleboom, giving him a hearty cheer.

The play came off very well after a good deal of
preparation and rehearsal and was enjoyed by the audience
as well as by those participating in it. Very sincere thanks
and congratulations go to Mr. J. D. Burns, who directed
the play and also did a magnificent job in making the
numerous props and scenery; to Mrs. Moore, who did a first
class job making the costumes; and to Mr. Gordon, who
did a fine job with the make-up. Many thanks to U.C.C.
for the use of their stage and for providing some well-needed
refreshments following the plays, and a thank-you to all
who helped make the weekend an enjoyable one.

Congratulations to U.C.C. and U.T.S. who each put on
a fine play, all of which made the evening a success.

HOBBIES

Under the guidance of Mr. Burns, the Boulden House
Hobby Shop has had a most successful year. Good work
was done by all enthusiastic "hobbyists" and many excel-
lent models were constructed.

All shapes and sizes of replicas emerged; minute, steel
Tractor Trailers ; sleek-hulled Aqua Skimmers ; trim Gliders ;
Spad Pursuit Planes from World War One; Atomic Sub-
marines and the medieval Silver Knights of Augsburg.

A final contest in early April saw the exhibition of
thirty models. Results of the judging were as follows:

CLOUDS

Always changing, always moving,
Diff'ring in shape from hour to hour;
Then some weird mythical creature.
Now a glistening silver tower.

Sometimes puffy, sometimes wispy,
Often a thick layer of grey
That in its course smothers the sun,
And blots out the light of day.

74 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

They come from none knows where,
Blocking out the sun,
Bringers of rain and storm,
Across the sky they run.

— N. Campbell, Form IIBl.

POPOCATEPETL

Just before the evening is come,
I look out of my window,
And see the red rays of the sun
Pass over a house, stream, meadow,
And gradually climb on a mountain
Whose snow turns to a pink glow.
The unique

Popocatepetl.

Its history is fairly brief.
And it is a common belief,
That once a young Romeo,
Popocatepetl, was changed to a volcano.
By an evil goddess
Through a certain process;
And his poor Juliet
Really wept, really wept.
And because of her grief
She slept and slept
And changed to the sleeping lady.
Mount Ixatcihuatel.

The rays begin to fade,
And before a sombreness can be made.
The sky becomes dark;
And like the rays
The majesty fades from
Popocatepetl.

— M. B. Sullivan, Form IIBl.

LIFE, LIBERTY AND THE PURSUIT
OF HAPPINESS

To every person there should come

A feeling that the work's not done —

That beyond the bounds of our peaceful life

Our fellow man is rent by strife.

The fairest land is the darkest place
For a man is despised for his shaded face;
Some live by what the Communists tell —
By a theory resembling the depths of hell.

We all must fight their battles now
That in the future we should not bow
To the forces which will destroy mankind —
The human heart and the human mind.

Now we are free and should take the pains
To free our brothers from their chains.

— D. G. Shewell, Form IIAl.

THE VALUE OF COURTESY

In the high speed of modern living, courtesy is liable
to be pushed to one side as old-fashioned and unnecessary.
Yet a few minutes' thought will show that the rules of
politeness are just as vital and valuable today as they were
one hundred years ago. Perhaps some of the stricter rules
of etiquette are outdated and of little value but the basic
idea of unselfishness is still fundamental.

At school we are trained to be courteous to those in
authority; in our homes we learn to be polite to our parents
and older people, to other members of our family and to
our guests so that when we emerge into the world, we may
be prepared for our contacts with the many different people
we are sure to meet. A courteous person is ready to meet
most situations in which the less courteous individual would

76 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

make many blunders. Courtesy can also save lives, for a
courteous driver is generally a safe driver. In international
relations courtesy is a basic requirement. A good diplomat
is invariably a polite individual and the varied tense situa-
tions that arise between nations can be often lessened
through the use of diplomatic courtesy.

Even in these few examples it can be seen that far
from being obsolete the value of courtesy is unquestioned
whether in our private lives, our relations with other people,
or between nations on an international level. Indeed it
may be truly said that courtesy is an invaluable attribute
in all phases of life.

THE THOUSAND ISLANDS

Contained in the forty-five mile stretch between King-
ston and Brockville are the Thousand Islands, which are
some of the most picturesque scenery in south-eastern
Ontario. Ranging in size from one square yard to several
square miles, these wild rocky islands, numbering over a
thousand, lie in the St. Lawrence River forming part of
the boundary between the United States and Canada. Used
mainly as a summer playground, the islands attract many
thousands of tourists annually, for they boast excellent fish-
ing, swimming, boating, water-skiing and camping.

The islands also have history; the notorious pirate,
Samuel Johnson, had his hideout here, and a British war-
ship entered the famous lost channel never to be seen
again. There are, too, many Indian legends which stem
from the area. Thus mystery and romance combine with
scenery and sport, cottage and castle, making the Thousand
Islands famous throughout North America.

THE NIGHT HAWK

When the light of day begins to fade,
And darkness commences to fall,
Out from his home in an ancient shed
The night hawk glides, with all
His keen senses alert, and directed
At the woods and fields below.

He circles above dark forest and field,
Then, hearing a rustle below.
He hovers, then swoops, intent on the kill
Of a careless and noisy field-mouse.
He's successful, his cry rings shrill.
He rises and circles once more.

— D. W. Cobbett, Form IIAl.

THE MUSICAL RIDE

Before this fabulous show can be seen by the people
of Canada and the United States, it must go through a
lot of training. The two training bases are at Ottawa and
Regina. The training lasts from February until April and
consists of two daily lessons for five days of the week.

The Mounties, who are chosen for this job, must be
between five foot ten and five foot eleven, keen, unmarried,
in top physical condition, and of good appearance. Out
of some five hundred recruits trained every year, only thirty-
two men are chosen to do the ride. The full total is thirty-
nine. They include the thirty- two riders, four substitutes,
the officer in charge, a riding master, and the band master.
For the past few years, Staff Sergeant R. R. Van Patten
has been the director of this fine display.

The horses are bred and raised at Fort Walsh,
Saskatchewan. Here they are allowed to run wild in the
fields until they are three. They have to be black, good
tempered, and the right size. These horses are not pure-
bred. Their mothers were German coach mares. A few new

78 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

horses arc needed for the ride every year. This year there
arc ten new horses. The last thing the horses are taught is
to get along with music. The music gives the horses sharper
reactions.

The total time for eacii ride is twenty minutes; nine
minutes trotting, eight and a half minutes cantering, and
two and a half minutes lance drill. A few of the displays
they do are the maze, the lance drill, dome, gates, star,
and the Shanghai Cross.

Staff Sergeant R. R. Van Patten says that it is better
to have a simple ride done perfectly than to have a difficult
ride done terribly.

The Musical Ride was first shown to the public in
1904 and has continued ever since except for the years that
the two wars were carried on. The Musical Ride was pre-
sented before the Queen on June 2, 1953, for the Corona-
tion.

CRICKET

Captain of Cricket J. A. Burton

Vice-Captain N. F. J. Ketchum

Captain of 2nd XI G. L. Booth

This year's cricket squad started out with only three
Old Colours but showed steady improvement as the season
went on and the players acquired more confidence.

Our first Little Big Four game saw some rather shaky
batting by both sides. The fielding and bowling were reason-
ably good. Upper Canada managed to squeeze out two more
runs than we did.

In our home game against St. Andrew's the School
showed greater strength in all departments and won by
some twenty odd runs.

The final game of the season against Ridley at the
Toronto Cricket Club produced our most confident batting

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 79

of the season and, coupled with good fielding and bowling,
led to a convincing win.

NEW SECRETARY OF THE O.B.A.

Mr. Paul McFarlane has carried on the work of the

to take another post. We shall miss him and his family.

Mr. Jim Kerr, who is well known to hundreds of Old
Boys, is succeeding Paul McFarlane on July 1st. He will
be given a warm welcome. For many years Jim was the
most efficient honorary secretary of the Toronto branch
of the O.B.A. and to all intents and purposes ran the Old
Boys' affairs single handed and most successfully. He is
now embarking on a much larger sea of detail and projects
but he already has an insight into it through his previous
experience and Paul McFarlane's assistance.

Old Boys everywhere will give him their full support.

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD 97

THE T.C.S. FUND

Interest from the amount so far contributed in cash is
being used now to support Scholarships and Bursaries,
to help keep salaries up to the level of those at Ontario
schools, and in some cases to exceed the level, and to in-
crease pensions.

During the past year some forty boys were given
assistance and the number of Scholarships and Bursaries
has been consider-ably increased. The Fund will not be in
a position to fulfil its objective until a larger number of Old
Boys feel called upon to support it. The six hundred Old
Boys who have subscribed are giving vital assistance to the
School at a time when the very future of these independent
schools is threatened by the alarming rise in costs of all
descriptions.

When T.C.S. was facing bankruptcy in 1935, seventy-five
Old Boys and friends of the School helped Mr. Britton Osier
to keep the flag flying and enable the School to continue
the work it set out to do in 1865.

Since 1935 fifteen hundred and more boys have come
to T.C.S. and a larger number applied earlier this year than
ever before. For sixteen years the School has not been able
to find places for all who have applied.

We are now building a House for thirty-six boys which
will enable us to increase the numbers in the Senior School
to two hundred and five boys.

If Old Boys knew how much their contribution will
mean to the future of these boys and through them to the
future of Canada and the Commowealth, a much larger
number would join the annual giving plan. Perhaps twenty-
five percent of our Old Boys are contributing now, a very
good beginning. But it is reasonable to believe that the
majority of the fifteen hundred boys who have been at
T.C.S. since 1935 feel that their education at the School
has meant enough to them to make them hope others can
have a similar beginning. If only half of them subscribe on

98 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD

the annual giving plan we shall have taken another long
stride towards our grand objective.

Will you be one of them?

A^VNUAL MEETING OF THE O.B.A.

The Annual General Meeting of the Association was
held in the Library of the School at 11.30 a.m., Sunday,
May 12, 1957, during the Reunion week-end. The President,
A. R. Winnett, was in the chair.

On motion by C. F. W. Burns, seconded by E. D. B.
Magee, the minutes of the last meeting were taken as read.

The Secretary-Treasurer reported on the financial status
of the Association. Current assets total $3,583.62 and
liabilities $409.37, the latter amount being owed to the
School, and covering cost of printing an Old Boys Bulletin
and cuff-links donated to the First Football team. It was
recommended that this amount be paid to the School im-
mediately.

Life Memberships

At the meeting held May 13, 1956, it was resolved that
the Capital Funds made up of Life Memberships would be
turned over to the T.C.S. Fund. At this meeting it was
further resolved on motion by N. O. Seagram, and seconded
by W. A. Heard, that all Old Boys who had paid a life mem-
bership during the years 1955 and 1956 be contacted and
their permission obtained to transfer these funds. The Sec-

TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD IQl

retary was instructed to write these Old Boys and obtain
that permission. This would involve an amount of $1,200.00
— twelve memberships of $100.00 each. The money remain-
ing in the account was to be left alone for the time being.

T.C.S. Association

Vice-President T. L. Taylor was asked by the President
to explain what had been done with regard to the T.C.S.
Association and its formation. A proposed constitution was
presented to the meeting, with Mr. Taylor leading an in-
teresting and lively discussion of what he and the executive
had in mind. In brief, they included the following points: —

1. All branches of the O.B.A. should be activated with
proper officers and constitutions, leadership coming
from the Central Association.

2. Parents should be included in all phases of this activity.
This would include parents, of both past and present
boys. They would be automatic members of the Associa-
tion, as are all Old Boys.

3. A set schedule of Annual meetings should be drawn up
for various branches, and the Secretary should attend
all such meetings.

4. A system of limited financial support from the School
should be worked out to assist the local branches in
their activities.

5. Representatives of the Parents might also be elected to
the Governing Body. The work that a great many
parents had done and are doing was an indication of
their continued interest in the School.

6. Plans should be formulated to ensure that repre-
sentation be effected of all branches at the Annual Meet-
ing of the Central Association at Port Hope. A financial
scheme should be set up to help defray travelling ex-
penses for representatives from Western Canada.

Executive Committee

It was suggested by the President, A. R. Winnett, that
rather than electing new officers as in the past, an executive
be formed with power to name their own chairman and

102 TRINITY COI^LEGE SCHOOL RECORD

also to bring to a conclusion recommendations regarding
the T.C.S. Association, with a view to having a special Old
Boys' Meeting at an appropriate time in the autumn to
decide the matter. On motion of A. S. Ince, seconded by
W. M. Pearce, it was resolved that A. R. Winnett, T. L.
Taylor and J. M. Cape be named to this executive.

The Headmaster reported on his trip throughout the
West, taken last autumn. Although the ground work had
been done, a continued effort must be made to build up the
branches and encourage their interest in the School.
The Record and Old Boys' Bulletin

The Headmaster led a discussion on the "Record," and
explained that although it was decided a year ago that all
Old Boys would receive the Record, serious thought is being
given this practice due to the increased cost of printing
the much larger circulation and the fact that most Old
Boys read only the Old Boys' Notes. Next year the Record
would continue to be issued to boys at the School, with a
charge being made to any Old Boy or Parent who might
be interested in receiving it on a yearly basis. As well, the
number of issues a year might be reduced to three. To
supplement this. Old Boys' Bulletins would be printed several
times a year. S. B. Saunders suggested that perhaps a
committee should be formed to study this situation and
assist the School in deciding what the future fate of the
Record should be. The Headmaster remarked that any
assistance would be appreciated and that much discussion
amongst the staff and students had taken place.

The meeting adjourned at 12.40 p.m.

BEQUESTS

The members of the Governing Body have suggested
from time to time that Old Boys and Friends of the School
should be politely reminded through the pages of The Record
that the School could receive much benefit in future years
if it were included in the bequests made in our wills.

His many friends were deeply sorry to learn of the
death of Frank Stanton Mathewson in Ottawa on April 4,
1957. He came to T.C.S. in 1902 and remained until 1907;
for 50 years he had been a loyal Old Boy often visiting the
School and helping our causes in any way possible. He was
a Life Member of the Old Boys' Association. In his final
year at T.C.S. he was a Prefect and always did well in his
School work.

He went overseas in 1914 with the 13th Battalion Royal
Highlanders of Canada (Black Watch). He was wounded
and received his commission at the second battle of Ypres
in 1917. He was awarded the D.S.O. for exceptional gal-
lantry and returned to Canada as second in command of
his regiment. Between the wars he was promoted to the
rank of Colonel, but in 1940 he reverted to the rank of
Major in order to go overseas once again. He was again
promoted to the rank of Colonel in England where he was
in command of troops in training until he was invalided
home in 1942. In civil life. Colonel Mathewson was an in-
vestment banker in Montreal and in Ottawa.
